His Second Chance Mate 22: With The Kids
BELLATrevor pulled me into his arms, in a bid to stop me from leaving the room. I stood there in shock as I landed in front of him. I had unconsciously placed my hands on his chest for balance. I didn't expect that being so close to him would have any effect on me.I quickly pulled away, snatching my hand from his grip.His explanations just didn't make sense to me. I couldn't understand how keeping the twins from the ball would protect them. I questioned his judgment, wondering if his decision was truly out of protection for the kids“There is no justification for turning your kids away, Trevor. Elders would ask questions, so what? How bad can it be?” I asked, holding his gaze.“I know what I am talking about, Bella. You just don't see it. It's more than just a question and answer session,” he said, staring intently at me.“I'm done with this talk,” I said and walked out on him.***I woke up to a call from my assistant. One of our newest suit designs just made it to top five on the
His Second Chance Mate 23: A Family
TREVORThe ball finally ended on a merry note and I had time to myself and my family.Later that evening, after tucking the twins in, I ran into Bella. My heart skipped at the sight of her. I stood to block her way, “They are asleep already,” I whispered, shutting the door, quietly.She nodded, “Thank you so much for putting them to bed, I had to put finishing touches to a…”“Shhhh,” I placed my index finger on her lips before she could finish, “I am only taking care of my babies. Give this man a chance to do his daddy duties,” I said smiling.She seemed more beautiful with each passing day. I felt really proud that I had successfully pronounced her my mate. Now, we I could look forward to the Luna festival, “Would you like to walk with me?” I asked, offering her my hand.I expected resistance of some sort and I was quite ready to push further even if she said no. But she took my hand, “Yes,” she said, eyes on my face.We went outside towards the West wing of the mansion. The air was
His Second Chance Mate 24: His timely intervention
BELLAI was fast adjusting to life in Trevor's mansion. Except that it was quite weird hearing Cara and Craig refer to Trevor as “Daddy.” Trust Trevor to use his charms in the right proportion. He spent a lot of time with them.I was grateful they now had a father figure in their lives.I didn't think I would notice Trevor's absence. I told myself I would be too busy with work and I wouldn't even know he wasn't there.But I found myself missing his encompassing presence in my room while I worked. I missed his compliments and stress relief jokes. Cara and Craig also did not let me have peace, it was all “Daddy this, daddy that.”With Trevor away, I decided to explore different parts of the palace. I took longer walks around and interacted more with the palace staff. It wasn't really easy to communicate with them because they were unwelcoming in a way, I couldn't really place a finger on it.I even thought I was just overthinking.However, I felt challenged a night ago. I asked one of t
His Second Chance Mate 25: Ex
TREVORAs I held Bella in my arms, I knew I would never have forgiven myself if anything had happened to her. I wanted more than ever to protect her from any form of danger. After hugging her for a while, I held her away from my body so I could observe her better in case of any hurt.I ran my finger along her jaw, still worried about her, “I'm really sorry, I'm sorry about his misbehavior,” I said as we walked into the house.I heard footsteps padding from the hallway, I braced myself for the biggest hugs of my life. They came at me, “Daddy!” they called in unison as they rushed into my arms.I planted kisses on their faces, as they giggled with laughter. I held them close to me, “I missed my jewels, so much. Did you miss me?” I asked, looking into their faces.They both nodded, “We missed you!” they chorused.“Good. I got you loads of goodies,” I said, causing them to jump on me even more.Seeing them brought me so much joy.After they ran off, I turned to Bella, “I'll just freshen u
His Second Chance Mate 26: Ex from hell
TREVORMara was the last person I expected to see.What was she doing in my palace after leaving me for months? Was she hear to ruin everything I had built? To crumble what I managed to create with Bella? What was her aim exactly?What a wrong time to have Mara’s drama!, I thought to myself.For goodness sake, I already moved on with my life. It was bad enough that she ditched me, throwing me into a state of panic. Now I just picked up the pieces, making something beautiful out of it, then boom! Mara appears.As soon as Bella marched out in anger, she threw herself at me. I was supposed to go after Bella and tell talk to her, but not when Mara was all over me, touching my beard, my shoulders, my chest. She was literally heaping herself upon me.All I could think of was Bella. I hated that Mara came in and ruined everything. I had put in so much work to be on Bella's good side and now, another obstacle just appeared.I felt an urgent need to reach Bella, immediately. I didn't want thin
His Second Chance Mate 27: Back in her life
BELLAI couldn't believe Mara was back in my life, again! Seeing her brought back memories, bitter memories. I thought of the pain I went through because of Mara and anger welled up in me.Was Mara some sort of eternal foe? Why on earth was she in my face again? I had moved on from the past, embracing a new life and an ugly demon from the past shows up?Didn't she already break up with Trevor? Or was I missing something? My head was filled with different thoughts.How can any sane adult just barge in on people and start acting without control? I was heavily infuriated by Mara’s arrival and even more so because Trevor seemed captured by her display.As if that was not enough, I saw her kiss Trevor! Oh no! I rushed into my room and slammed the door.I held my head in my hand as I paced back and forth in my room. I was mad at Trevor for just standing there as if he had been bewitched. Just then I heard knocks, “Bella! Bella, please let me in,'' he called.I didn't respond, then he contin
His Second Chance Mate 28: How Dare You?
TREVORI thought of everything Mara said and I came to a conclusion that she was just trying to manipulate me into taking her back.I thought of the way she left me, her attitude before and after the breakup and I knew she broke up with me because she wanted to. The Mara I knew would not end a relationship because her aunt was in a crisis. She was too selfish to please others at her own expense.In fact, after she left, there were rumors that she was seeing someone else. There were pictures of her flying around with another guy, she definitely ditched me for her own selfish reasons. And she had the guts to return to my house, telling me I should know better.I made up my mind to put her in her place, I wasn't going to let her ruin what I was building with Bella.I invited Bella to breakfast, hoping we could have a good time and I could start the day on a good note with her. Then Mara appeared, throwing her arrogant self around. I hoped she would just fool around and not confront anyon
His Second Chance Mate 29: Stupid Move
MARAGetting to Trevor's mansion after leaving for some months needed a grand entrance and I made sure to have that. I felt good being able to disrupt the peace of the palace. I mean, how would a whole Mara just appear without any form of announcement? I couldn't allow that for myself.I did my best on arrival. I fed Trevor a good story to cover for my cold and sudden break up. He seemed to swallow all I said. There were a few doubts here and there, but I was able to brainwash him, or so I thought.By morning, Trevor was a different person. The Trevor I used to know would do anything to keep me by his side. Infact, my return was supposed to be a thing of joy for him but to my utmost amusement, he now had a second chance mate, Bella! Of all people.I was in rivalry with Bella? Same Bella who would cower in my presence? The whole situation seemed ridiculous to me and I was bent on humiliating Bella until she could no longer breath.I was shocked when I saw her. What the hell did she do

His Second Chance Mate 99
TREVORI rushed Bella to the hospital. The weight of everything Bella went through affected her heavily. As soon as we got to the hospital, Bella was put in a coma. I stayed by her side for a bit and rushed back home to see my kids.As soon as I got into the palace, the twins rushed out to me. A flood of emotion filled my heart. I crouched before them and embraced them tightly. I rubbed their heads and nuzzled them, “Where have you been daddy? We waited for you,” Cara said.“I'm so sorry baby. I was busy saving mummy,” I told them calmly.“Where is she?” Craig asked.“Is she in trouble?” Cara asked.“Mummy was in trouble. I saved her already. Now she is in the hospital,” I said, kissing Cara's forehead, “How are my babies doing?” I asked,“Did you miss me?” I asked, looking into their faces.They nodded but their faces turned worried immediately as they looked at me, “What happened to your face?” Craig asked, touching my face.“Here too,” Cara touched my arm.“I got in a very serious fi
His Second Chance Mate 98
TREVORI watched Bella rush towards Denver. I wasn't sure what exactly she had in her mind but when I saw her get close to Denver, I knew something was about to happen. She pushed him. I watched as he turned around and gave Bella a heavy blow. She fell to the ground and became static. I wanted to rush to her side but Denver was coming right at me.I was furious, seeing that Bella did not move at all. The fact that Denver had hit her so bad. It infuriated me that he would put her in that state. I was livid. He was supposed to face me, why Bella?Running to her was not the best decision at that moment. I had to be cautious. I could not let my guard down. I also could not let my emotions control my actions. If I could take out Denver, then I would be able to save Bella afterwards.I had intentionally spent time listening to Denver and engaging him in all that talk. It was very timely, giving me time to gather my strength. I was shocked at the length Denver went just to have his way. I t
His Second Chance Mate 97
BELLAI coughed, trying to catch my breath. I was horrified at the thought of Denver marking me. I could not just allow him to sink his evil teeth into me. I was extremely disgusted at Denver for everything he had done. His presence repelled me. I could not believe I had once trusted such a devil.I was losing my strength. It was taking too long for Trevor to arrive and I was tired of fighting. I felt him reaching for me. I felt his presence stronger and stronger but he was yet to show up. When Denver said he was going to mark me, it was as though I should scream Trevor's name.I was also careful not to let Denver know Trevor was coming. If I made it known that I had felt his presence, Denver would know I felt him from our mate bond. He would then ambush and kill him before he could save me. I knew better than to reveal anything to him.From the things he said, I found out he had planned to kill Trevor. The gunshot at the palace was not a mistake, neither was the idea of the rogues. I
His Second Chance Mate 96
TREVORI sprang up from where I was sitting. I had secured Bella's location using our mate and her scent. I could hear her screams. I could feel her fear from the sound of her voice. I was angry with myself for not thinking of using our mate bond since.I was running out of time. I could feel Bella's energy depleting. Her voice was becoming faint and it scared the hell out of me. I called out to Kasper and he showed up immediately. Together, we went in search of Bella.My heart was thudding heavily against my chest. I had an extreme height of desperation. It caused me to feel uneasy. I ran at a high speed, with my men following behind. The mate bond which I had struggled so hard to use was now in full bloom. I felt Bella's presence more than ever and it spurred me on.My mind was spiraling with different thoughts. Bella's face came into mind. I would never be able to forgive myself if something bad happened to Bella. I thought about all the moments we had shared. The sound of her lau
His Second Chance Mate 95
I stared at Bella as she lay on the ground. Her breath was ragged and she seemed to have bruised a side of her face. Her eyes blazed with fury as she stared at me. Whatever was going on in her mind, I knew she wasn't leaving the same.I went towards the window of the uncompleted building and scanned the area. I wanted to be sure no one was around. It was a highly secluded area and the building had been abandoned for years. Everything was covered in dust and no single person was around.I moved closer to her and placed my food on her rib. She winced as my foot made contact with her body, “I will not watch you insult me!” I said and applied pressure on her rib.She winced again and gritted her teeth. She looked up at me, shooting daggers from her eyes,“Get off me!” she roared.I turned to the rogues standing by and burst into laughter, “Did someone just raise her voice?” I asked in a mocking tone.They burst into laughter too. One of them said,“More like the whimper of a puppy,” he said
His Second Chance Mate 94
BELLASome things were unimaginable. And one of the highly unimaginable things was being kidnapped by Denver. How was it even possible that Denver was the enemy we had been looking for all along? I stared intently at him as he moved in circles, spitting gibberish.I had done my best to be friendly at the event. To me, we just had to make peace with the enemies since they were tired of the war. Little did I know it was all a ploy to perpetrate evil against Trevor and I. It all made sense, the sudden outbreak of diarrhea. Definitely some sort of poison had been served to weaken the guards.I thought of my situation in the palace when I was abducted. I didn't know if Trevor was alive or dead. I saw him fall to the ground after being shot. I was on my way to meet him when I was suddenly grabbed and lifted off the ground. In a bid to free myself, I lost my shoes and my phone.I had been unable to calm myself since the attack. What was happening to my children? I wondered what they were goi
His Second Chance Mate 93
TREVORI had gotten a lot of information from the rogue. Including the revelation of who my main enemy was. There was a very high chance that Denver was behind every disaster we had faced in the palace. I didn't want to draw conclusions until I found my wife.The rogue didn't know where I could find the kidnappers, but his partner did. He had been uncooperative, but I had to find a way to get the information out of him. He was my only link to finding Bella and capturing Denver.I walked over to him. He was stubborn as a mule. But at this point I had to do whatever I could to find Bella. If he could at least tell me where to find the rogues, it would be easier from there. I shoved him on the side and his body turned over. I bent down to whisper an irresistible offer to him, but I meant the shock of my life.He was dead.I gasped in shock as I stared down at him. Dead? What the fuck! It felt like the entire universe was working against me. My only lead to Bella's location had died! I ro
His Second Chance Mate 92
DENVERA surge of fury rose in me as Bella blatantly refused to profess love to me. I grabbed her by her hair, “Say it! Say you love me!” I yelled.“I do not love you!” she fired.I exhaled in frustration. My breath quickened as I turned from her. I began pacing. Bella was pushing me beyond my limit. I did all I could to hold back, “You have no idea what you are missing. I have put my life on the line for you, countless times. But do you appreciate it? No!” I exclaimed.I threw my head back with my hands on my waist. I thought of things I could do to make her succumb to me. I was overwhelmed with frustration, “I have shown you pure love. I have done so much to prove my love for you. Yet, you do not acknowledge me!” I shouted at her.She shifted and leaned on her limbs. I figured she was trying to take pressure off her knees. I moved over to her and made her kneel up. She winced and swore, “Serves you right, ungrateful bitch!” I cursed.Some of the rogues were standing around, watchin
His Second Chance Mate 91
TREVORI was livid. I wanted to squeeze life out of the rogues for coming to take Bella. Every second spent with them meant extra time for Bella in their dirty den. I had to intensify the torture. Time was running and I needed to find Bella as soon as possible.Kasper brought in my iron rod. It had turned red from excess heat. He handed it to me. I grabbed it by the handle and walked towards the rogues,“You punched me where it hurt the most. It's time to pay back!” I said, fiercely.I had seen fear in their eyes, especially the other rogues. But they didn't seem ready to talk. I didn't have time to play games. I was ready to kill anyone, if it meant finding Bella. I made up my mind to burn them if they refused to speak, I was willing to go the extra mile.As I moved closer, one of the rogues began trembling. I placed the iron at the hem of his pants. It began burning. He wriggled with a loud yelp, “I'll speak! I promise,” he cried out.He tried to push his chair backwards. In the proc
