Dakota did. She'd blabber endlessly, but Louisiana would aid — standing right by my side with an angelic smile playing on her lips."Eye contact never occurred between them. They focused on the dishes, yet Tessa could tell the aged man was tearing up. “Was Dakota Doreen's mother?” Carefully, she inquired, and his affirmative nod was an initial response. “Dakota and I were childhood sweethearts. However, we got separated and Louisiana came into my life a decade after. She was… Everything. Beautiful, smart and so friendly. Fuck…” Charlie's drenched hands clenched onto the plate as he gritted hard. Tessa felt boundless hate oozing from him — self-hate to be exact. Ostensibly, the founder of W Empire has been wallowing in self resentment for God knows how long. “Louisiana was so friendly, and kind to the extent of accepting Dakota and our wedlock child — Doreen.”“Were you ashamed, Father? You were ashamed of your infidelity, and Dakota alongside Doreen acted as a breathing reminder o
The bitterness such undesired memories caused lingered shortly in the air, since Tessa's cheerful conversations effortlessly chased it away. In a matter of minutes, a sense of glee was palpable from Charlie's utterances, and hearty chuckles. Their delightful discussions prompted the quickness of dish washing. “We're done. That was… Fast ” Tessa, herself was stunned at their partial oblivion, and Charlie countlessly laughed lowly. “Why don't we continue our discussion back with my parents, Father?” As she dabbed her hands continuously with a towel, the aged man's eyes glinted temporarily with wist. It was clear his sense of speaking became non-existent whenever Doreen, and himself were close by. A father should never be afraid to exchange words with his son, yet it was evident something else persistently acted as a cat — catching Charlie's tongue. That was guilt. “You do want to make amends, don't you Father?” Tessa inquired seriously in that saccharine voice of hers. “More than
The light laughter constantly falling from the lips of the Earth's embodiments of purity — children blessed many with glee, and introduced smiles to their lips. Generally, the park was such a stress draining place, yet this location wasn't selected because of that — Maria was choiceless. Currently, the second grandchild of the eternally famous Charlie Williams could be spotted seated on one of the metallic benches of the park. One was placed right in front of her, and due to its lengthiness, the mother and daughter duo occupied that. The shade provided by the large umbrella tree above them was cooling but the burning fire those pair of brown eyes which continuously were centered on them made the young red haired… Hot. Catrina, her mother was obviously engrossed in ogling at the playing children as she incessantly smiled. “Why the fuck are you here?” Maria, after many silent glares, questioned gravelly with her arms folded over her chest, and a leg crossed on the other. The inti
Regardless of the sun's presence, the mild guts of winds carried along a bone chilling cold, and many roaming around were dressed warmly. It was evidently chilly yet sprawled on the bed, Tessa felt nothing else but controlled heart, and limitless satisfaction. On the king-sized bed, she laid with an exhausted body and a smile lingering on her lips. Those mesmerizing blue orbs weren't in view since her eyes were shut, and multiple strands of her thicken blond dangled across her flushed face — her beauty was effortless, and otherworldly. The collar of the light fabricated shirt she was cladded in fell to a side, so the few love bites imprinted on her pale skin were visible. Due to the absence of a duvet, her ankle with a gold chain encircled on it glimmered softly in the moderately illuminated room. Tessa was an ethereal sight to behold, and being the first to do so every darn day, Doreen considered himself the luckiest bastard. He was settled comfortably in a posh longue chair,
The collision of the heavens possibly wouldn't grant her withdrawal from her speeding train of thoughts, and so, the nurse's entrance was utterly insignificant. It was the next morning, and it was one filled with so many peculiarities. Every being shared in a bowl of awe at the occurrence of guts of winds while the sun was positioned rightfully in the sky. It was simultaneously chilly, and hot. However, the nurse tasked to take care of a very well-known figure was slapped hard across the face with immense confusion the instant she stepped into the ward. “Miss… Maria?” Perplexity quickly blended with fright at the sight of the bratty dark-haired seating upright on the bed yet remained motionless. The softness of the large pillow placed behind welcomed her back, which persistently rested on it, and her pair of brown eyes apparently became moths. Although the ceilings of the capacious ward were as bland as a canvas — devoid of any color, Maria's eyes found them quite vibrant, and f
The three ladies weren't strangers to another, yet the atmosphere was discomfitingly suffocating for Maria and Octavia. The latter knew the extent her mother would go whenever it comes to her welfare except, things were misunderstood during the previous day. And the former — who just got a taste of a mother's wrath, was low-key intimidated and her fake veil of pride was tearing apart. “I contacted Lady Beth,” Catrina unexpectedly blurted, and both ladies batted their eyelashes. “What for?” Octavia questioned while arising from her seat, and a smile crept up her mother's lips. “Calling this young lady here Lady Theresa's future sister-in-law won't be a stretch, and since she passed out yesterday, it was only normal I contacted Lady Beth. She called back this morning, and informed us all to head to the Manor."“Why?” Maria sharply but lowly inquired. “An execution's about to begin at the Manor — your cousin's.” Seconds were all that was needed for that utterance to be comprehended,
Was it ever mentioned in the Bible that devils were so…. Majestic?Tony, and Mary were uncertain, but currently the two had their pairs of eyes — including everyone's glued to the figures of the two blindingly gorgeous beings. The wistfulness coursing through Mary's veins ever since the arrest was quickly overshadowed by rage as her dark orbs glared so intently yet hatefully at the blond angel. The taste of immense rancor sprouted out of every bud on her tongue urged the bitterness of her mouth — every fiber of Mary's being was brimming with rage. Her eyes departed from the marble tiles the instant Tessa stepped in, and nothing — absolutely nothing existed as her glare persisted. She wasn't the sole one gawking at the stunning couple with exasperated eyes. Tony was shaking. His cuffed wrists, and balled fists quivered — the tightness of his clenched jaw prompted veins crawling on his bare skin, and the sclera of his eyes became a web of red, bloodshot lines. He was livid, and a
Words truly were inferior to actions, and currently, every thought her mind created, and scornful utterances her lips sprouted centered on this majestic aged woman didn't tally with her action. Not in the slightest fucking bit. Francess did imagine herself snickering fearlessly at the sight of the illustrious Beth Ford. The defined European lady had her great deeds sprinkled across the world like sand over the Earth - many either were overjoyous to be in her present or numb caused by overwhelming intimidation. She was evidently experiencing the former. Francess' tongue knotted in her mouth, and her palms become sweaty then slightly shaky. “F-fuck.” In an attempt to comport herself, she fisted both hands then exhaled, trying to rid her body of its abrupt stiffness. Here in Killian's library - a place he mindlessly boasted of being his haven had unnervingly been occupied by this prominent woman. As the man of the house, the brown haired remained collected and his wife? Stephanie w
