“True love bears all, endures all and triumphs!” “Let me go! I don't want to talk to you.” I hissed and tried to get my arm out of his strong hold. I knew only looking into his green emerald eyes would make things worse. It would force me to recollect how he abandoned me when I needed him the most. I could still feel his breathing fanning on my face. I never believed I would meet him again after all these years. Just seeing him again opened up old wounds. “I won't, not until we talk.” He said with his jaw hard and lips pursed and I knew I wasn't going to be free from him. Madeline Collins had her whole life all planned and figured out. She was one who always made the right choices in her life but everything turned upside down for Madeline when she discovered she was pregnant - a truth that could come in the way of her future plans. Her boyfriend Kane Whitemon abandons her to her own fate and Madeline is left to decide on her own. Fast forward to six years with Madeline now a single mother to a curious six years old daughter Molly. Madeline now lives a happy and simple life with her little girl but that happiness is short-lived when Molly is kidnapped and fate finds Molly to arrive at the doorsteps of Kane's mansion. This leads to Madeline and Kane meeting after six years but what happens when Kane demands a second chance from Madeline to save their love? Will Madeline agree to give him a chance or has Kane already lost her love?

Chapter 1

1 - Prefect

“Yes, am almost at my apartment.” Madeline said with a wide smile plastered on her face. She had just finished her part time job at a local restaurant for the day and was heading home to take a real bath. “Alright, so you don't have plans for tonight. Then come over to the club for a girl's night. It's a Friday Madeline.” Her friend Jane said over the phone.

“You know I don't do parties especially night ones. And, besides am already exhausted from working overtime today.” Madeline just entered the bus that would take her home. She heard her friend sigh heavily over the phone. “You're such a bore Madeline. It's a Friday and all the girls are having fun over here with some hot guys. You can bring your boyfriend with you as well.” Madeline hated the fact that Jane was always a persistent person. She found an empty seat by the window and hurriedly took it before anyone else would. Manhattan could become like a beast on a Friday night due to the fact that people were heading home from working during the weekdays.

“You also know my boyfriend doesn't like late night parties, only exclusive parties and events that happen during the day.” Madeline said wishing this conversation would just end. She had already planned her routine for tonight. Taking a nice long shower to relieve her stress, checking her email out of habit to see if she got accepted as an intern in at least one of the top fashion houses and lastly have a small study session. Madeline was in her third year in university and was studying fashion designing. It's a dream she had pursued since she was a little girl and was very known towards the sewing machine.

“You know the both of you are such a bore and fit each other to the tea.” Jane slurred at the end before Madeline picked up beats of the loud music playing in the background. “I can tell someone's already tipsy.”

“Of course not! Anyway am off to party and dance till my feet drop dead. Stay in your apartment with your boring boyfriend.” Her friend cut the call and Madeline couldn't have been more happier. She pondered on her friend Jane's words. It's not that she was a boring person but at this stage in her life, Madeline couldn't afford to slack off and loose herself for even a second. Unlike Jane who came from a pretty good family background, she could freely lance around but that wasn't the case for Madeline.

Madeline reached her stop and got off the bus. Her apartment was only two blocks away from the bus stand and she didn't mind straining her legs a little more. The cold night was amazing on her skin and it seemed like a perfect Friday night. A typical night where guys and girls her age would either party or sit at home to watch movies and smear their mouths with popcorn. She reached her apartment building and said a nice greeting to the security man before making her way into the building.

Her legs were sore so she opt to take the elevator up to her floor. She got to her apartment and stopped to take a deep breath. She opened her door and got in only to gasp or more like surprised. Her boyfriend Kane Whitemon was seated in the living room with a laptop on his lap and his eyes fixated on the screens. Madeline didn't expect Kane to be back so early. She glanced at the time. It was around seven-thirty.

It seemed that Kane hadn't noticed her come in. Madeline slowly slided off her bag from her shoulders before she made her way behind him. She wanted to surprise him from behind. “You're home late.” Kane said not tearing his eyes away from his laptop. Madeline rolled her eyes and leaned her face forward to kiss him on the cheeks. “I could say the same time about you babe. You're home early.” And, Kane turned his neck around to face her and pulled her close to kiss her mouth. Madeline moaned in his mouth. No matter how long they were dating, she always felt like this was the first time kissing Kane Whitemon. Fresh and sweet at the same time.

“I missed you.” Kane smiled before returning his gaze back to the screens again. Madeline also looked at his laptop and smiled. She saw more like a property with buildings rising slowly. It was like an animated presentation. “I spent several days doing this.” Kane smirked at his accomplishment. “You deserve another kiss for this. Come here.” Madeline pulled his face to hers once more and kissed him deeply. She was so proud of her man and saw how hard he worked just to get a business proposal out there. She knew with Kane's much dedication, he was sure to succeed at an early age.

“You did over time again today?” Kane asked after he pulled away. Madeline smiled more at this. “Yeah. Needed more tips since it's a Friday night and besides Ms Boomer wasn't feeling well today.” Madeline took off her shoes and tossed them to a corner before moving towards the couch. Kane took his laptop off his lap and let Madeline sit on his lap. “You're so smart and so serious with your work. I love this about you Madeline. The two of us each pursuing our goals. It's wonderful and we pair with each other so well. Don't you think so too?” And, this made Madeline coze up more towards Kane. “I don't just think so but believe so my dear Kane.” She leaned her lips forward and Kane grabbed the back of her head to kiss her more. Kane loved the fact that Madeline was a beauty but not just that but she wasn't a distraction like the others. She was his drive to push forward with his goals. To show everyone especially his father that he could become a successful business man and prove how wrong his father was.

Kane's parents divorced when he was five years old and Kane mostly spent his life living with his single mother Amalie. Kane's father didn't have wealth and this caused a shift in his marriage to Kane's mother. Things got worse after Kane was born. His father Cole couldn't tolerate any more and left not before calling Kane a mistake. Amalie worked hard as a college professor in one of the schools in their neighborhood back home in East London and was able to send Kane to school. Kane developed a good IQ and was always at the top of his class. Now he was in his third year in Columbia university studying business. He did have some setbacks on being rejected but that didn't slow down his esteem but quite the opposite. It made Kane more driven more than ever to succeed.

“I'll make us some dinner quickly.” Madeline giggled when Kane won't leave her. “It's already done. I made pasta with shrimp sauce tonight.” Madeline's eyes widened at what she had just heard. “Did you make dinner Kane?” She felt her ears were deceiving her. “You were gonna be home late so I thought of easing that load off of your shoulders. See? Aren't I a perfect boyfriend,”

“Indeed you are.” Madeline replied with all honesty. Kane was the perfect partner for her. Their goals weren't the same but the path was the same. They knew each other and no matter what others would say about them being boring and extreme workaholics, Madeline knew that Kane was the one. She wanted the kind of relationship which her parents shared - that of mutual understanding and love.

“So, any news yet from your internship application?” Kane returned back to the living room with two cups of cold coffee to meet Madeline clearing the dining table after their dinner. “Not yet but the fact that my application is still pending and not yet rejected is making me less anxious.” Madeline wanted this internship badly as it was a huge step to achieving her dreams. “Am sure you'll be accepted. Your designs and application letter was spot on.” Madeline smiled and needed that boost of confidence from Kane. “By the way, dinner was great. You knew you could also present such presentation in the kitchen.” This made Kane smile proudly.

Kane led Madeline towards their small balcony which was attached to their apartment flat. The view of the full moon proudly brightened the night sky and the stars. They both settled on a big recliner that could accommodate two persons. “Thank you.” Madeline smiled as Kane handed her a cup of cold coffee. She leaned her head against Kane's broad shoulder and stargazed at the stars up in the sky. Both sat close to each other in silence allowing the night breeze to swirl around them and sipping their cold coffees.

“The stars are beautiful tonight.” Madeline whispered not moving her gaze away from the night sky that twinkled because of the countless stars. “Hmm,” Madeline felt Kane's chest reverberate in a slow rhythm when he replied. It was indeed a Friday night and instead of being at a club and loosing control to alcohol, Madeline would a thousand times prefer the solace and comfort with Kane by her side and at this exact moment, it was priceless and... Perfect.

2 - Acceptance Letter
The weekends were a blast. Madeline continued on her designs project and was able to make some time for studying her other courses for the semester. She couldn't afford to slack off even during the weekends. Kane returned home late on a Saturday evening. He slouched on the couch and had a tired face. He had a meeting with a client and was to pitch his idea but Madeline could see that things didn't go so well.“How was your day today?” She brought him a glass of water and sat beside him. Kane smiled at Madeline before taking the glass from her hand and gulped down the whole content. Madeline helped him in loosening his tie. “You didn't go to the restaurant today?” He asked in his tired voice. Madeline shooked her head. “I asked Mr Yang to give me the day off in return to work overtime tomorrow. We are low on rent so....” Madeline paused to see Kane resting his head more against the couch. “What happened?” She asked before she helped him take off his jacket. Kane yawned and said. “Mr F

3 - Her Dreams
There was a small diner downtown and two blocks away from their apartment building. Kane opened the door for Madeline and they got in. They both took off their jackets as it was a little bit cold outside. The diner was mostly packed by the bar with friends clicking mugs of beer and tequila. A typical Sunday evening ritual. Kane hated going to such places but this was what he could afford at the moment until he cracked a business deal.They took a seat by the window and a tall waitress came to attend to them. “May I have your order please?” The kind girl asked. She should be in her early twenties judging by her appearance and body structure but hey, appearances can be deceiving. “What would you like Madeline?” Kane smiled and Madeline only got her hands on the menu card set on their table.“A cheeseburger with some fries and onion rings.” This made Kane surprised at her choice. “Is there a problem?” Madeline asked as the kind girl noted down her order on her notepad. Kane shooked his h

4 - Anniversary
Sarah gave Madeline a tour of the upper floors. It was such a vibrant and a creative atmosphere everywhere they went. Sarah was an assistant working for the boss and Madeline was fortunate to being given a tour by her.They got into the elevator and arrived at the last floor. Madeline was so excited as she stepped out. On this floor were almost naked models trying on the dresses on the many racks. Mannequins were also used to wear the premium dresses and Madeline couldn't help but stare upfront to see a gorgeous white shimmer gown on a mannequin stand. The hems and stitches were perfectly embroidered and it didn't take a genius to know that was the show stopping dress. It seems like a fashion show was upcoming.“As you can see, we're getting ready for our next fashion show to release our latest clothing line. The boss would love all of these arrangements.” Sarah smiled at the models and Madeline already was thinking of a new sketch design in her head. “On to the next part of the tour

5 - Pregnant
Madeline woke up with a mild headache and felt nauseated. She hadn't seen her period in over a month now but she wasn't worried. Her meeting with her first client was today and she had to look good in all areas. Kane was up earlier and had morning lectures. A smile appeared on her bow-shaped lips when she saw a note by Kane's side of the bed. She pulled herself up to pick the note from the lamp stand and opened it."Wish you luck on meeting your client and, break a leg."Madeline leaned against the headboard with her head in the clouds. She couldn't believe it all and how her life was slowly changing and not to mention how much Kane was a beast in bed last night. She unwillingly pushed her legs to get off from her bed and went straight to the bathroom. While she rinsed her face, her stomach was in a tight knot and resulted in her throwing up some few remains from last night's dinner. Her headache got much worse and she concluded she was probably under the weather. She knew she couldn

6 - What To Do
Suddenly all of her hardwork and achievements seemed to be flying out the window and the more Madeline stared at the pregnancy test, the more she thought of it again. She wondered when this even happened and just thinking about the times she and Kane slept together wasn't enough for her to fall pregnant. What were the odds.“This must be a mistake,” She whispered to no one but herself. All the times she forgot to take the pill was making her feel even worse. Her body felt all weak and she had to seat on the toilet. Her head was heavy and aching badly and her eyes a bit hazy. She held her head and sighed with her mind wondering what to do next. Of course pregnancy tests weren't 100% accurate and she needed to see a gynecologist before even knowing what to do next.She hid the pregnancy test inside her part of the closet and went straight to bed instead of having her usual night study session. She knew nothing would enter her head when it was already occupied with malicious thoughts of

7 - Results
Madeline reported at her desk around mid-day. She knew that she couldn't afford to not be punctual on her second day but she didn't care. For the first time, she didn't care about maintaining decorum in everything not until she saw the results of that damned test she took earlier today. It was all her mind could think of since last night.She took a glass of water from the dispenser on her way and gulped it all before she decided to get started on her work for the day. Mrs Jones had already sent her a positive feedback earlier this morning on her mail but she didn't have time to look at it until now. She knew it was going to be a long and tiring day but she already was here and was to keep on moving forward.She first got the fabric and started to cut it to the desired shape and sizes. Mrs Jones's measurements also came along with her positive response so it made Madeline's work of going back to her mansion not possible anymore. The part of cutting the fabric wasn't the hardest part a

8 - Argument
“... Believe me, it's not the end of the world Madeline.” Beatrice began but got alert when Madeline didn't respond. Her eyes moved from the table towards her belly. Her soft heavy breaths could be heard and finally she raised up her head to look at Beatrice. “...What do you mean it's not the end of the world for me? It is!...”“Please calm down...”“....I can't calm down doctor! This is too much for me to handle,...I can't....” Madeline found herself holding her head and already sobbing. She shut her eyes and cursed herself for being so careless with herself. She knew Kane never used protection because they both agreed on her taking the pill to avoid any pregnancies. It was their number one rule when they started dating and now this happened.“...My life is completely ruined Doctor. It's ruined....” Beatrice got up from her seat and rounded her desk to stand by Madeline. Madeline out of impulse was quick to wrap her arms around Beatrice's waist and rest her head on her belly. She was

9 - Fight
Madeline got to work on her designs and even though she didn't have the energy to focus at the moment, she had to uphold her commitment. There was no way she was going to tell Sarah nor anyone at work about her pregnancy. She had a long day ahead and her baby was growing slowly which meant she was not going to have her baby in the next coming nine months but more. At time she got dizzy and her head pounded like a hammer against her brain. She only wondered what Kane would say. She wanted to believe in Beatrice about Kane offering his support to her at this crucial stage of her life.Her back was sour from her having to stand up straight for long hours while trying to stitch the fabric on the mannequin. It was quite a job to sew a dress on the size of Mrs Jones. Kane sent her a message and he did say he had no choice but to leave New York to foresee the initial stage. He was to leave tomorrow afternoon and Madeline knew now was the time to let Kane know he was going to become a dad. But

10 - Ultimatum
“What did you say? I cheated on you,” Madeline already got herself off the seat and looked at Kane in shock. “How could you even say that? Am thirteen weeks pregnant for God's sakes and I know I messed up but that doesn't give you the right to question my love and loyalty to you Kane.” Madeline was already sobbing.“I don't know what to think at this point Madeline. Do you...do you have any idea of what a baby is Madeline? A baby. It's not a toy Madeline. How could you be so careless.” Kane already shooked his head multiple times and somehow Madeline saw this as all her fault. “I messed up....”“You fucking messed up Madeline! You are not always this careless and absent-minded. What went wrong. We were building our future together Madeline. This..this...” Kane eyed her belly with contempt and rage. “This thing can ruin our future plans. We don't have the means to raise a baby. My mom learnt from her mistake by having me at an early age and guess what my dad blamed her for ruining his
