The beautiful morning passed by and I enjoyed the sun bathing my almost bare body. I had a fresh apple juice in one hand with sunglasses on. I wanted to get a bit of tan on my skin as my complexion wasn't doing a great job in hiding all of Mason's fingerprints and hickeys all over my body. I laid on one of the lounge chairs and wore a crop top and a pair of tight shorts. The sun wasn't threatening and seemed just the right temp for vitamin D and a nice tan. “Try this Mrs De Luan,” I looked up and smiled bringing my sunglasses lower. “Hello.” I greeted Ralph and saw he had a tray in his hands and a fresh pina colata and it wasn't coconut but more of my favorite flavor. Strawberry. “It's really tasty. And perfect for the weather this bright afternoon.” I chuckled and took it from the tray and sipped through the straw and it was indeed delicious.“And where's my husband? He left after breakfast and haven't seen him since.” I asked and Ralph's face grew a little bit tense. And I got wor
“Sir please you can't go in! Mr De Luan please!” That puny secretary was hurting my eyes with her nonstop wailing. I reached the conference room and immediately kicked open the double doors barging in like a tyrant. I was met with shocked and startled faces in the seemingly large room of over fifteen people all sitted. My angry eyes scanned and landed on the bastard.Without any further delays I rushed towards him and grabbed him by his collar with gritted teeth. I squeezed his neck and he feigned crying for help. “Charles! Let go of my son!” I moved my head and found an elderly man who sat at the head of the table. He and Charles both had the same green eyes and facial features. I gritted at the old man and turned my attention back on the bastard. I heard him whisper towards me making sure no one else heard him except for me. “Did your company's breakdown affect you this much?” I roared staring at his smugged face that had a little wink at me. I punched him on the same lip that hadn
My feet suddenly lost their balance and immediately the doctor and one of my guard rushed to grab both my arms before I could sink to the floor. My body still shooked and I couldn't feel any control over my body at the moment. The thought of it made something stir horribly inside of me. I never wanted a child but now I didn't even know how to react knowing my wish had been granted?The doctor and my guard pulled me towards the nearest metallic bench. They even made me sit down because I was numb from the inside. Mrs De Luan was more than three weeks pregnant. The doctor's words kept on ringing deeply in my eardrums and I imagined how Sierra would feel once she found out as well. She also wouldn't have known about it or she would have told me. I gritted out and screamed pulling my hair out.Three weeks? But she was on a pill. Then how come? I looked at the doctor. “But doctor how is she over three weeks pregnant when she was on a pill?” And the doctor narrowed his brows. “Well it's pos
“Who's the idiot that dared to file a complaint against me?” I asked holding up my glass. “Mr Bane filed the complaint sir,” My already soured mood only got worse hearing that bastard's name. “He claims you almost killed his son and sent him into a coma.“ And hearing him only made me chuckle and raised my glass in the air. At least some good news reached my ears today.“That's wonderful news officer, I wish that bastard dies over there.” I muttered and poured myself another glass before the officer said behind me. “Please come with us Mr De Luan,“ And I had a bitter taste suddenly in my mouth. I didn't know this officers here and had to agree. It's not like I would stay there for even more than five minutes. I slammed the glass on the counter in anger. Now my mood was really ruined. Today wasn't my day.I got to the station and met that old geezer pacing about close to a man I presumed to be the chief officer. I smirked at him the moment his anxious eyes shot towards me. “It's him! Th
My mouth trembled hearing his hurtful words. How could he be so cruel right now and say I was to blame. Only I knew how much I wanted this baby. It was my only source of dragging on when I thought my life was over and finished. I blinked to remove my tears that had made my vision blurry. I hiccuped and saw hatred and anger in his eyes. He inhaled sharphly and turned back to me. “Slapping me won't change the truth Sierra.“ And I saw admists his anger was also pain and I felt shattered even more.He gritted soon, “You are to blame and that's the truth!...““It's not my fault at all!“ I yelled back and felt my body growing sour. I hissed and bit my mouth. I sniffled and continued to hiccup while holding my belly that felt empty now. I couldn't feel that warmth I always felt whenever I rubbed my hands on my belly. Now I felt nothing. I lost my baby and there was nothing I could do to get back my baby. My body twisted in painful knots and my throat felt so clogged that it was almost too pa
I tightened my hands on the bed feeling my body shooking violently. I felt numb and looked up with my blurry vision. Mr Cryus was angry and I couldn't help my breathing getting labored. No lord! This couldn't be happening to me now. Why was I being wronged like this. Why was this happening to me?I moved my eyes and turned to Mason and my heart shattered seeing his reaction. He was evidently pained as well. He looked so defeated and I hated seeing him like this and this was all my fault. I shooked my head and shouted. “No! This isn't true. You're lying! I will be able to become a mother again!“ I paused as I recalled that woman I met with in the restroom. Her story was now seeming to resemble mine and I began taking heavy breaths. No! This can't be happening. This would shake my whole world! I recalled all of her words and her warnings and saw how miserable she was. I saw how her life was destroyed and I didn't want that to happen to me! I wanted to be a mother! I wanted to house my
Mason walked into the room and I immediately wiped away my tears and sniffled. I closed my eyes and pretended to fall asleep as I heard his footsteps nearing my side. His scent immediately reached my nostrils and felt him in front of me. I felt the side of the bed dip and his fingers caressed my hair.“You're so beautiful my dear,“ And I couldn't help but recall his father's words. I squeezed my eyes but he didn't seem to suspect at all. Hearing his words and the way he played with my loose curls was making me feel even more assured with myself that what I was about to do was the right thing to do. I moved myself a little to hide my face completely from his sight as I barely caught his smile as he looked down at me.“I know we'll both figure this out together wifey. I know that we will. You will become a mother and it will happen for sure even though it takes years and years.” He said and I bit my mouth as another tear slided on my face. I knew he wouldn't be able to hold on for that
I was in a nearby cafe and looking around before my eyes looked up to spot Mirah walking to our table with two coffees. She smiled and sat down handing me one coffee. “Thank you,” I whispered with my hoarsed and choked voice. I could feel my throat pang in pain whenever I would open my mouth to speak. I had exhausted my throat beyond reproach.Mirah sipped on her coffee and asked. “How've you been...““...Sierra.” I said with a tight smile and I couldn't help but feel very awkward right now. We didn't know each other at all and I only got to meet her for the first and last time back at the embassy. I never believed we would ever cross paths again. And her voice rang numerous bells inside my head. I recalled all the times when I had secretly heard her same voice on Christian's phone when he was alone in his study. It was mostly recordings of their conversations and back then how I couldn't help him out played deep in my mind.“Sierra. How are you? It's been years. And I don't think we'v
Author's POVA little girl stared outside the car window from her side in the backseat. Her magical blue eyes couldn't help but admire the whole scenery of outside. The landscapes and mountains that peeked their heads from the horizons. The walkings of the people outside having transporting back and forth because of their day to day activities.She loved watching all of these and her eyes slightly lighted up when she spotted birds flying into the sky spreading their wings out. She knew their beaks were opened which meant they were probably chirping in this early hours of the morning. But too bad that she couldn't hear them. The birds were so far away and she couldn't hear their chirping sounds nor the people bustling around their car outside. How she wished she could hear all of these activities of life and feel like she was part of such a wonderful and creative world. Instead she always felt invisible because of her issue. And it seemed it had become a part of her.The car parked on t
I stared at my wedding gown that was hanging on the wall close to me. I was still in my white silky robe with her hair done perfectly in a neat updo. A hair pin laced with tiny shreds of golden plate stones was used to set my hair straight and perfect. It wasn't at all messy. My eyes were brighter than ever with the lovely bright golden mascara adorning around my eyes. I was seated against the huge pink vanity and the oval long mirror hung in front of me showing my beauty. I wondered how Mason will react in seeing me while walking down the altar.A smile formed on my lips when I knew this time it will be different. It won't be like the first time when we were both dragged into a marriage of convinience. This time we were marrying each other for love. This was my dream and I still couldn't believe I would definitely have a happily ever after. All my life I had never been faced with a man who truly loved me for me. My dates back in high school were only random and it was only on occasio
I was over the moon when my wifey came to me with the most wonderful news ever. I couldn't stop smiling and beaming from ear to ear. It was so beautiful and my heart leaped out and filled with nothing but happiness and admiration. I stared at her with my tear filled eyes looking down at her. She was an angel. A goddess made just for me. She had given me the best news ever and I was so happy and overjoyed.She came forward to cup my face and smiled before revealing her pearly white teeth in amusement as tears rolled down from her eyes. I could see the pain was long gone. It had all vanished into thin air and only happiness was seen all around her. I always saw the pain deep in her eyes despite the fact that she smiles and laughs all the time. But deep down she couldn't get over what the doctor had said at the hospital after her accident. She was beyond shattered and distraught and I feared she could do the unimaginable but she was my fearless woman. My queen. Even though the news had af
“What have you decided wifey?” Mason asked me. I sat on the floor resting my head against the bedside lost in thought. My eyes were already red and dry. I felt awful inside but it was good that I knew the whole truth and my reality. This was the reality and I had to embrace my reality.“I'll talk with her.” I said and held the bed to rise up on my feet. Mason grabbed me and helped me stand up before I looked into his eyes. “Will you come with me?” I asked and his lips curled up to form a small smile. He nodded and my heart felt okay and at peace. I knew he would always be with me and never leave me all alone. Despite the deception and lies performed to unite us, we overcame all obstacles and now we were happily in love with each other. Now I didn't care about what his family thought of me. I only cared about Mason and my family. I made my mind clear to only care for the people who truly loved and cared for me in return. I was done being weak and crying all the damn time and allowing pe
My lookalike that I had gotten to know by the name Sienna cupped my face as tears formed underneath her eyes. She had the same eyes as me. Her body posture also resembled mine. Our hair color matched perfectly. She was a carbon copy of me in the making and I still couldn't wrap my head around the fact that I had a twin sister. Why was that even possible. Why didn't my parents say anything and even worse, where was she all these years? I had so many questions.“It's been so many years Sierra. Not once have I forgotten about you and wanted to see you again. I wanted to meet with you. I...tried.” She said sniffling and held both my hands and kissed them. I gasped once Mason pulled me away from her and made me stand behind him. His face was hard and vicious. His eyes were stoned on Sienna as if he could easily kill her with his angry penetrating eyes.“Stay away from her!” Mason growled and I stared at him shocked before turning my eyes back to my supposedly alleged twin sister who looked
The doctor and the nurses got in to check on the run over woman while Mason and I waited outside. My head was throbbing and I was feeling so unsettled. I still couldn't wrap my head around the fact that I had a lookalike. It was crazy and unbelievable. She looked a lot like me. I would even go as far as to say that we were twins but that wasn't possible as I don't remember having a twin. Am an only child.“Are you okay wifey?” Mason sat beside me with worry and I smiled with a nod. “We should go back to the hotel and let the police handle that....woman,” Mason suggested. I turned my head to Mason. “But we can't leave her at the hospital alone. I...” I saw Mason's face harden for some reason and he looked away upset. I wondered why he was upset at me. “Hey?” I held his chin and made him face me. “What's wrong? Did I upset you by choosing to help her? I couldn't just leave her here and plus, she looks like...”“She's nothing like you okay!” Mason growled stunning me right away with surp
It had been a week now and there wasn't any sign of Sienna. I had expected after the blast our picture caused all over social media, there would be some signs of her appearing out of th shadows but it seemed she was way too smart that I gave her credit for. I had to do something big. Something to close up this chapter of Sierra's awful past once and for all. And something that won't get Sierra hurt in the process as well. Of course I've always wanted to do this and was waiting for the right time. But it seemed that there wasn't any perfect time than today which was Christmas.I immediately dashed out from my thoughts when I felt Sierra's hand touch mine. I turned my eyes from the window towards her. “What are you thinking of?” She asked. I smiled and shooked my head. “It's nothing. Just rummaging through a few thoughts.” I answered making her smile as she neared me before she rested her head on my shoulders. “You smell nice.” I murmured earning a low chuckle from her. “Thank you.” I he
I was quick with my errands at work as I wanted to spend the whole day with Mason. Our work here in New York was done and we were soon to shift back to LA but I opt to stay back in New York for a while at least until after Christmas or probably the new years.I got a phone call from mom after I grabbed my coat heading outside from the office. “Hello,momma?” I said placing my phone against my ear and passed by Bree's office to see her and Darren conversing pretty well. It was the first time I had seen Darren so vastly interested in talking with a woman besides me and it made me smile to know that there were other fishes in the sea and not all about his ex. I just hoped he would realize it sooner.I didn't interrupt them and just walked past heading out. I had sent a quick message to Mason few minutes before I was done with my work. The message had two lines thicked blue and in a few minutes, a loud car honked outside our branch office.“How is papa doing? And you?” I asked as I opened
I got a startled awake from my wifey and she looked worried for some reason. I had to sit straight on the bed with a smile on my face. Now I didn't want this moment to end at all. Seeing her face in the morning before my eyes could even stare down at my morning wood. I could easily get used to this feeling of always waking up every morning to see her by my side.“What's the matter baby?” I asked and reached out my hand for her to come to me. She had her fists tightly round her phone but I didn't pay much attention to that. “Come here. Come to your daddy,” I said smiling and her smile didn't fully touch her cheeks. She came to hold my hand and I immediately nessled her unto my lap to feel my morning hardness. “Do you feel that wifey? I want to be inside you right now.” I said smirking but her enthusiasm wasn't appealing at all and I just had to ask.“What's the matter baby? Tell me.” I asked looking all serious as I pecked her long neck. “I want to...ask you something?” She began and I
