"Happy birthday, my Sephi," Seraphina's heart fluttered. Her eyes slightly enlarged in happiness. She looked at the clock and it was exactly 12 in the morning and like always, he had wished her first. "May you get blessed with all the love, happiness and a long life, my angel. Many many returns of the day," Seraphina smiled and replied. "Thank you so much, Nate," For giving them their privacy, Arzal decided to leave. He turned around but Seraphina held his palm. He again looked at her, who was smiling at him. Seraphina put the phone on speaker. "I love you so much, Sephi and happy 19th birthday again, my angel. I'm so so happy and excited," Seraphina's smile widened at his enthusiasm. "Love you more, Nate," "Tell me, Sephi, what gift do you want on this birthday?" Arzal saw Seraphina's smile drop from her face, hearing his question. "Just come back to me, as soon as possible. I'm missing you," Her voice turned heavy. "I'm missing you too and I am coming back t
"But where are you taking me?" "Just a minute, Seraphina and you'll see yourself," Nevada replied. They had blindfolded Seraphina in the middle of their way to their destination and now they had finally reached. Seraphina was too confused to focus on what was actually happening, where they were taking her. Nevada and Evelyn were holding her arms, so she wouldn't trip on her walk and Nicklaus was following them with a smile. Seraphina could feel they had entered somewhere but where? Unknowingly, her heartbeat accelerated, until they both left her arms and she heard that voice. "Happy Birthday, My Sephi," Seraphina's inflated heartbeat halted, hearing that voice. She immediately pulled that blindfold away from her eyes and her gaze bewildered. Seraphina got startled, shocked by watching that person in front of her. For a moment, she thought it was a dream. Her mouth hung open. She was inside their own home and he was in front of her."Nate," Her voice came out as a shock. Nath
"I love you, Sera," Seraphina went stiff. She was looking at him like he was talking in some foreign language. Her mouth hung open. Her eyes widened. "Now come on, don't make this more awkward, Sera. I'm already feeling awkward," Seraphina batted her lashes, hearing his words but she was still in too shock. Arzal sighed at his beautiful statue and then walked towards her. He pecked her nose pin and cupped her face. "I love you, my Princess," Seraphina's frozen heart inflated, hearing those words again from his mouth. She finally came back to her senses and smashed her lips over his while stepping on his shoes. Arzal immediately wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her back. The clouds roared, wind was blowing at a full speed but they both remained unaffected, who were passionately devouring each other's mouth because the storm outside was nothing as compared to that storm which was emerging inside them, which was colliding their souls along with their hearts. Aft
"How's he, doctor?" Arzal asked, desperation and concern were lacing in his voice. "We have done the operation but Mr Miller has gotten several vital injuries. He has lost a lot of blood, so we can't say anything before he gets back his consciousness," The doctor replied. "And when will he wake up?" Nicklaus asked, worried. "We can't say anything, at least for 24 hours. We're keeping him in ICU and under our observation, after that we'll able to get into some conclusions about his health condition," "And how's Seraphina? Is she alright?" Now there was a fear emerging in Arzal's voice. "Miss Miller hasn't gotten her consciousness back yet. She has gotten a very severe shock after watching her brother's accident but hope so, she would wake up in some hours," Arzal sighed, heavily and then nodded at the doctor which made him leave. "Arzal, what had happened in the terrace that made Nathan react so violently?" Nicklaus asked, confused. Arzal suspired before answering. "He
Seraphina regained her consciousness and the first thing which escaped from her mouth was. "Nate… " She opened her heavy eyelids and immediately those images of Nathan's accident started engulfing her. "Nate.. I want to see him. Nate.. " She chanted. Nicklaus ran towards her and then cupped her face. "Hey, hey.. Look at me, Seraphina. Nate is fine. His life is out of danger," Seraphina calmed down and looked at Nicklaus. "He's fine. The doctors said he's completely alright now," Nicklaus's words made an extreme amount of relief wash over her. Seraphina hugged Nicklaus and uttered while whimpering. "I want to see him please," Nicklaus patted her head and sighed gently. "You can meet him but before that you need to calm yourself down, Seraphina," He palmed her face again and wiped her face with his palm softly. "He won't be able to endure the pain of watching you like this, so you've to be strong for him, Seraphina," He tried to make her understand the situation.
"I need to talk to you about Seraphina and Arzal," Nathan's expressions turned firm at her words, which didn't go unnoticed by her. "I know I'm an outsider and I've no right to get involved in this but Seraphina is my best friend and Arzal is like my brother," She said and then clutched Nathan's palm in her. "I want their happiness, just like you want your sister happy," Nathan scoffed and snatched his palm from her. He tore his gaze away from her. "So he has sent you here to defend him?" He sounded cold. Nevada frowned before answering. "Nobody has sent me here. I've come here on my own to check on your health and meet Seraphina. I thought you're soft hearted just like Seraphina but you know what you're just rude, cold and self centred," She spat at him, totally hurt and angry at his behaviour. Nevada was about to get up but stopped hearing him. "Then how do you expect me to behave after knowing what he has really done to my sister?" Nathan's words came out like a venom
"Then I think you should meet and talk to him," Seraphina became startled, hearing Nathan and before she could answer a voice speak out first. "Really?" Nathan trailed his eyes at the door and saw Nevada standing there with her big eyes and wide grin. Nevada excitedly ran inside the room and spoke. "Actually I was eavesdropping," She announced, innocently. Nathan chuckled, weakly and then looked at Seraphina. He got up on his feet and then placed his palm over her cheek. "Your happiness is everything to me, Sephi and if Mr Grayson is your happiness then I've no problem with it," Seraphina's eyes turned more watery. Nathan pecked her temple and wiped her eyes. "I just want what is right for you, Sephi and if you think, he's right for you, then I am totally supporting you in this," Seraphina hugged him tightly and sobbed. "Thank you so much, Nate. Thank you," Nathan smiled and caressed her head. His eyes travelled towards Nevada, who was staring at him affectionat
Seraphina felt like her heart halted beating at his words and by watching that deadly madness engulfing in his eyes. He was looking like he was on the verge of consuming her entire being. Seraphina tried to push him away because now she was angry and hurt with the way he talked to her and yelled at her. "Leave me, Mr Grayson. Go and do your most important work. I'm sorry for coming here but don't worry I won't disturb you ever," Arzal clenched his vigorously, at her words and his endurance left him when she tried to push him away. He grabbed her both wrists and pinned them above her head, against the door. "Leav… " Her words stuck inside her throat, as he slammed his lips over her. Her aching soul warmed, just by feeling his touch but she continued to protest and her defiance angered him more. He kissed her possessively and aggressively, telling her how much she had hurted him by taking herself away from him. Those 7 days were a painful torture and a heart wrenching nightmare fo
Sezal…" That tiny figure turned around and Arzal's eyes widened by watching those big tears in her doe grey eyes. He dashed towards her and kneeled down before her. "Hey! my love. What happened? Why are you crying?" Arzal asked, worriedly while cupping her small face. He noticed her entire mouth was covered with chocolate. Arzal immediately cleaned it gently with his coat's sleeves and then wiped her eyes. "What happened, Sezal? Why are …" he stopped when she wrapped her tiny arms around his neck. "M.. mamma scolded me," she softly whimpered. Arzal became stunned. He hugged her back and started caressing her head "What? She scolded you but why?" "Because she lied to me about her test grades," Arzal turned his head and saw Seraphina coming inside. By her face, he got it that she was angry. He got up while carrying the whimpering Sezal in his arms. "Her teacher informed me today that she has gotten very low grades in her test and yesterday when I had asked her about her grades
"I've checked the pros and cons of this project and I can say that the cons are more than the pros," Arzal nodded, hearing his company's project head. There was an important meeting going on between the heads of the company."But I have also evaluated this project and in my evaluation, the cons are more but the pros have greater opportunities for our company," Arzal trailed his eyes towards his front and saw that azure eyes owner, who was sitting in front of him."And I think, we should at least do a trial test with it to know our dealers and customer's response towards it," Arzal heard her every word keenly."I agree with Mrs Grayson, Mr Grayson," one of the members of the team agreed with Seraphina."Mrs Grayson has a valid point. We shouldn't just drop these great opportunities just because there's some uncertainties associated with it,"Seraphina flashed a professional smile to that member and then looked at Arzal. "But the risk is too much in this project," another member sai
"Nervous, Grayson?" Arzal sighed and turned around to face Nicklaus. "You couldn't even imagine," Nicklaus laughed at his answer. "Chill, Arzal. You both have a 3 months old daughter now and you're still nervous?""Because I'm marrying the mother of my daughter for the first time, Williams,"Arzal frowned, earning a chuckle from Nicklaus. " Fine… fine… understandable but now at least remove this frown from your face. It's your wedding day, after all," Arzal rolled his eyes at his remark and turned around to face the mirror. He gazed into his grey orbs and uttered those words. "My eyes are desperately longing to see my azure eyes enchantress," Slowly unlatching her eyes, her azure orbs straight fell on her reflection in the mirror. Her body was wrapped in that beautifully fluffy white gown. Her hair was clutched in a high bun. The long train of her gown was attached to it. Her face was glowing like a pearl. "Seraphina, you're looking ethereal," Evelyn uttered, enchanted by her
Sezal Arzia Grayson. Arzal had chosen the name for his daughter and Seraphina had chosen the middle name. Arzal was so happy when she told him that if their baby would be a girl, she wanted to give her his mother's name. So she came up with the middle name, Arzia for their daughter. Seraphina got discharged from the hospital. They couple headed back to his home with their newborn. Everyone was waiting for their arrival in Arzal's house. Seraphina stepped inside the mansion, carrying her little life in her arms but her eyes widened when she saw the scenario in front of her. The entire mansion was decorated with flowers, balloons, toys, teddies. "A very beautiful welcome to our beautiful and brave mamma, Seph and her most beautiful daughter, Sezal," A wide smile formed on her face by watching Nevada, Nathan, Evelyn, Nicklaus and even the staff members. She tossed her head and looked at Arzal, who was standing beside her. He smiled at her and pecked her forehead. "A very warm, beau
Staring at her 8 month's baby bump, a soft smile crept on Seraphina's face. She slowly averted her eyes upward and looked at him through the mirror who was massaging and oiling her hairs. Her smile widened when his grey eyes met with her and he beamed too. "So what is my Sera thinking that made her so happy?" He asked, massaging her head. Seraphina sighed in relief. Her head was aching a little while ago, so he decided to give her head a massage. His touch was so soft and calming that her mood immediately lightened up. "Nothing. I'm just memorising these beautiful moments in my heart," She answered, smiling. His beam enlarged at her words. He pecked her temple. "And we'll continue to collect these beautiful moments throughout our life, together," He uttered, happily but then noticed her smile faded a little at his words. "What happened?" He asked, concerned. Now just a mere frown on her face terrified him, as her delivery was coming nearer. Seraphina shook her head and then sigh
"Why don't you make love to me anymore?" Arzal was aghast after hearing those words from her mouth. He looked at her, bewildered. His reaction hurted Seraphina more, who had now turned more sensitive regarding almost everything. Tears fell from her eyes as a sob broke out from her mouth, taking him back to his senses. "Hey! Hey! Please, calm down. Don't cry, Sera," He tried to calm her down but she shook her head vigorously and uttered. "You don't find me beautiful anymore. I've turned ugly," Arzal was getting shock after shock at her every word. He cupped her face more firmly and stood up on his knees before her. "Who said this to you, Sera? You're the most beautiful girl I've ever seen in my life and you're turning more beautiful, day by day, my princess," His words didn't buy her, who again shrugged her head. "No, you're lying. I'm not beautiful anymore, that's why you don't love me like before," Her emotions were taking out the best of her. "I love you, Seraphina. I love
Seraphina turned into a statue, after hearing those words from his mouth. She looked at him, bewildered. Arzal smiled and extended that tiny box of a cookie to her more and uttered. "Please accept my cookie or else my heart will get broken, Sera," Seraphina giggled and then kneeled before him. She took that cookie from him. "Let me taste it first then I'll decide, Mr Grayson," She replied and everyone chuckled whereas Arzal pucked out his lips like a kid. Seraphina bit the cookie and then shoved the rest of the half in his mouth. "Hmm.. It's very yummy, so I guess I can accept your proposal, Mr Grayson," A huge smile formed on his face, hearing her. He pulled her into a warm hug, making her smile. "But you've to promise me, you'll continue to make these sweet choco cookies for me and our baby for the rest of our lives," She spoke, raising her head a bit from his chest. Arzal chuckled at her words and then pecked her forehead. "I promise. Forever and always," He said. Her hea
Seraphina's heart had come to her mouth when she saw his smile fall and his face turned emotionless. "Okay," He hung up the call and looked at her. "What happened?" She asked, desperate. Her eyes had almost watered by watching his blank face. "Arzal, tell me. What the doctor said?" Arzal sighed, heavily, making her more afraid. "She said… " He paused. Seraphina's heart had almost stopped until. "The result is positive. We're having our baby," He said with happiness gleaming in his eyes but her eyes widened. She looked at him, startled. Seraphina started hitting her chest while tearing up. "I thought… I hate you.. I hate you," Her emotions got the best of her. Arzal smiled and pulled her into a warm and gentle hug. "I'm sorry. I was just teasing you," He said, kissing her hair. "Yeah and your teasing had almost given me a heart attack," He pulled back and kissed her teary eyes and then her forehead and then her nose pin. "Your heart is mine and I won't let anything happen t
"I'll share the results of her blood reports in the evening. Till then, take care of her," The doctor uttered and then left from there. Now everyone was standing on their places like statues, staring at each other like they had come to a different planet. "Oh my… Seraphina is pregnant. Our Seraphina," Nevada yelled out of her lungs and dashed inside the room, followed by Evelyn. Nicklaus sighed and looked at Nathan, who was glaring at Arzal. Nicklaus gulped. "Okay, I guess.. You're about to get beaten up, Arzal. All the best, Nathan. Break his jaw but first let him meet her," Nicklaus chuckled and then went inside the room. Nathan sighed, heavily and again looked at Arzal, who had turned into an ice and wasn't even blinking. "If Seraphina wouldn't have been in love with you so much then I would've killed you right now, Arzal," The possessive brother in Nathan came out, who was too stunned to react to that news. Nathan also stepped inside the room and saw Seraphina crying badly,
