ELIASI thought I knew everything about Kendra, but after seeing the way she handled her dads bodyguard, I realised that I didn’t know her well enough.As hot as she looked putting up a fight, I was worried about her getting hurt, even though I knew that she was more than capable of protecting herself and all those around her. “Are you out of your fucking mind Kendra?” I asked her quietly as I held onto the top part of her arm and looked down into her beautiful large eyes, thinking the Kendra I knew, she wasn’t this rough. Kendra tried pulling away from, me, but I didn’t let go of her, instead I pulled her even more closer to myself, until both of our noses were touching. “Let go of my arm” she said with a small frown that made her look even more sexier than she did already.“Not until you tell me what the hell happened out there” I said with a serious look on my face, thinking she had no idea how tempting she looked when she was angry. “I will tell you everything but first I need
KENDRAIt was just after midnight when Elias and I both arrived at the small tattoo shop that he had been meaning to show me around ever since we had returned home from Amsterdam. I liked tattoos but not as much as Elias, who had a lot more interest in them than I did. “I only want a small one” I said as I held onto his hand tightly and followed him into the rather quiet shop, thinking instead of sleeping I was out and about at this late hour of the night. Elias gave my hand a gentle squeeze and locked the door after us,“This place is mine sweetheart, make yourself at home and let me know when you’re ready to get tattooed” he said with a small smile, making my eyes widen. I looked around the small shop and then at him, wondering if he was telling the truth or just around messing with me. “I don’t believe you” I said just as an older man who looked in his late forties stepped out from the back and met Elias with a quick manly hug. “Meet Craig a good friend of mine who always hol
ELIASThe following morning, I woke up before Kendra and quickly made my to the bathroom with a small plastic bottle of pills in my hand. I did not like what I was about to do but I had no other choice, because time was running out and I needed to get her pregnant before dad changed his mind about the little deal we had. Kendra had made it clear to me that she was in no rush to start a family, but what she didn’t know was that my entire future depended on it. I promised myself that I would tell her the truth about everything when the time was right but for now, I needed to get rid of her actual birth control pills and replace them with the ones in my hand that looked similar to hers but weren’t the same. I opened the white cabinet under the sink and looked at the small bottle of her birth control pills, thinking as wrong and selfish this felt, I needed to do this for both of us, because I couldn’t risk losing her and going back to jail. Five minutes later and I had finally finish
KENDRAIt was late in the afternoon when we all finally arrived in beautiful Scotland. The journey would have taken a lot less time if we hadn’t made so many stops along the way, but if I was completely honest, I enjoyed every part of the experience. Elias and I had both slept for a few hours before he drove for the remaining part of the long journey and told Mikel to get some rest. We were staying at a beautiful castle that had an incredible view of the countryside and nicely catered for everyone, from the young to the elderly. I took a nice hot shower and towel dried my hair before I got dressed and put on a bit of makeup, thinking I’ll quickly switch on my laptop and check if I had any new messages on my online blog before heading downstairs. Much to my surprise I had no internet connection, not even a single bar. “This is not good” I thought to myself as I tied some of my hair back from the front and looked at myself in the mirror thinking I’ll try again later as for now I j
ELIAS“All I know is that you tried killing him over some girl you both knew” I said with one hand on my chin as I looked up into her beautiful large eyes, wondering what she would say. She seemed very calm and collected, even after I had told her what I had heard from Hayden. “I did, but did he also tell you why I did it?” Kendra asked as she relaxed back against my arm and looked down at me. I refused to believe that she could kill anyone, even though the signs were all there and she had even admitted to the crime herself. I remembered the first time I had seen this other side of her when someone had tried to steal her watch, and she had put the guy in his place within a matter of seconds. “You weren’t the first person to put your hands on me Mikel, I’ve dealt with men like you my whole life, a pathetic choke hold isn’t going to stop me from saying and doing what I want” I remembered Kendra say back when I found her talking with my brother in the hallway. And then the way she
KENDRAI had never seen Elias look as angry as he did when Makayla slipped up about Hayden. He didn’t say anything to us during lunch but the moment we reached home he told us both to follow him outside, before we could even talk to each other alone and come up with some sort of cover story. “There really isn’t much to talk about Elias” I said quietly, even though I had a feeling he wouldn’t listen. Elias lowered the black cap he was wearing on his head and looked over at me and Makayla.“When were you both planning on telling me the full truth?” he asked with both of his arms folded across his chest. “Kendra had nothing to do with this, I was the one who asked her to help me, please don’t say anything to her” Makayla said quickly before I could even speak. “What I want to know is that why didn’t you come to me instead when things weren’t going well between you and Hayden and why were you even with him in the first place?” Elias asked with a small frown. I could tell he was very
ELIASThere were very few moments in my life that were worth remembering and hearing Kendra say that she might be falling in love with me was definitely one of them without a doubt. I never thought I would ever hear those word from her pretty lips, yet here she was all curled up in my arms, looking up at me with nothing but love. “You think or you know?” I asked with a small smirk as I looked down into her beautiful warm eyes and hugged her tightly, liking the way she fitted in my arms. “I guess you’ll never know” Kendra said with a small, cute smile on her face and that was the last thing she said before she closed her eyes and fell asleep on my chest without any warning. I brushed a few strands of her hair out of her face and kissed her on the top of her head softly, thinking no matter how rough and tough she liked to act she was still a woman at heart, who loved being fucked and cuddled long into the night. “Loving you was easy but keeping you forever might not be” I thought to
KENDRA“This man right here, he’s a murderer, he killed my daughter, you should get away from him as quickly as you can” the tall man who had walked over to our table said to me with his eyes fixed on Elias. “Killed your daughter?” I asked a little hesitantly. I wasn’t sure if I had heard right or was just imagining stuff, as the Elias I knew was so perfect and so sweet, there was no way he could kill someone, or could he?“She is neither dead nor alive, but she is suffering every day, and it is all because of this man right here” the man said angrily before he banged his fist down on our table, making my drink spill everywhere. That was all he had to do before Elias stood up in a flash and grabbed him by the collar a little roughly. “You have a problem with me, you talk to me, rather than causing a scene in front of everyone” he said quietly yet clearly before he let go of him and passed me a few tissues. I took them from him and quickly wiped away the bit of drink that had gath
KENDRAI leaned back against my chair and turned all of my attention on Elias the moment Gabriel walked out of my office and left us both alone. “I only have five minutes so make it quick” I said with a small frown, thinking even after everything that had happened, he still had the power to make my core throb with one single glance. Elias sat down on edge of my desk, and I couldn’t help and stare at his bulging muscles that were very noticeable from the fitted casual top that he was wearing. “I gave you permission to talk not sit on my desk” I said as I stacked the few files that were in front of me and looked up into his sexy looking eyes. “I know” Elias said with a small smile on his face that vanished just as quick as it appeared. I put the timer on my phone for exactly five minutes and looked up at Elias, thinking he looked good and smelt amazing. “Start talking” I said before I crossed one of my legs over the other one and patiently waited for him to speak. Elias forced hi
KENDRAIt had been a few days since Elias had signed the divorce papers and set me free for good, but instead of feeling relieved and happy, I felt empty and lost. Although we had only been together for a couple of months, it felt like I had known him forever and I really couldn’t imagine my life without him there right by side. “I need to really stop feeling sorry for myself and get my shit together because this is what I wanted” I reminded myself as I completed my first lap around the park. The weather was dull and depressing just like my mood and even though I was all covered up, I still felt extremely cold. I did a few more laps before I dropped myself onto a bench nearby and took a long sip of my water, thinking even though I felt tired I couldn’t give up yet. Christmas was just around the corner, and like always I had no excitement to celebrate it, as it was the one holiday that always reminded me of mom because she always made it special for me and Kaleb, even when she was
ELIASAlthough Kendra had told me that she was done with me many times before, I still didn’t believe her and wanted to hear it from her mouth one last time again before I signed the divorce papers and set her free. “Is this what you really want sweetheart?” I asked her quietly as I turned and looked down into her beautiful eyes that looked empty and lifeless. These were the very same eyes that would once light up and spark with just my presence but not today, today they were just staring back at me emotionlessly. “Yes, and this is my final decision” Kendra said before she passed me the pen and waited for me to take it. “No this cannot be happening, we had a deal and if you don’t do as I say you will be at loss and so will your company” Dad said to Kendra loudly before I could even reply. Kendra tossed some of her long hair over her shoulder and looked at dad fearlessly. “I think you’re forgetting that us Knights are the suppliers and you Richardsons are the distributors, which
KENDRA I woke up to Elias and Gabriel fighting and Makayla holding my hand gently, almost like she was trying her best to comfort me silently. It took me a moment to realise that I wasn’t dreaming, and that Elias was actually here. His presence instantly made me feel relieved, but that feeling didn’t last long as I watched him throw Gabriel around. “Let go of him now” I said quietly, and to my surprise he listened quickly and slowly turned to face me, looking as sexy as always. I felt my heart ache with pain the moment both of our eyes met. “You’re awake” he said quietly before he rushed over to where I was and hugged me tightly without any warning. “God, I missed being in his arms” I thought to myself before I pushed him away and looked over at Gabriel. “When I said you could come in and see me that didn’t mean you could invite in whoever else you wanted” I said with a small frown, thinking I should have left his ass outside waiting. “I didn’t invite anyone, they came
ELIASIt was a few days before Christmas when I had decided to return home and see if Kendra was ready to forgive me, even though I had a feeling that was the last thing she would do, as there was no way she hadn’t seen those pictures of me leaving a club with a woman who I had met at one of my shows. What she didn’t know was that I didn’t sleep with that woman.The only reason I had left with her was because she was a little drunk and wanted me to pretend that I was her man, so no other guy at the club took advantage of her vulnerable state and offered to take her home for the night. She had told me that a few guys had already tried forcing themselves on her and I knew she wasn’t lying as I had seen a few of them harass her myself. I knew Kendra wouldn’t believe me, but she deserved an explanation. The drive home from the airport took less then an hour and it was almost near six morning when I got there and quickly made my way inside. The butler greeted me politely before he clo
GABRIELI helped Kendra out of her long black coat and watched her as she took in her new surroundings, looking a vision in blue. It didn’t take long for her to turn around and ask me why I had asked her to meet me at my place and not somewhere else. “Maybe because I wanted to do other things with you” I said as I took a step closer to her and looked down at her pretty face, thinking she looked good frowning and all I wanted to do was kiss her soft looking lips. “You can’t be serious right” Kendra said before she shook her head lightly and reached for her coat. “No, the real reason I called you here is because the last thing we need is to be seen out together as this late hour when there are enough stories going around as it is” I said before I lead the way to the open lounge and watched her follow. Kendra quickly understood what I meant, and I didn’t miss the hint of sadness that crossed her pretty eyes as she sat down and crossed one of her sexy legs over the other one. “I gue
KENDRAIt was later much later on in the evening and me, and Makayla had just arrived at the nice busy restaurant where I had made a dinner reservation for nine. The restaurant was known for its good food and live music, the exact two things I needed to take my mind of stuff tonight.We were both dressed in pretty dresses and had definitely caught a lot of attention on our way in, which didn’t really come as a big surprise to me as we both looked good.I just hoped no one bothered us as the last thing I wanted to do was spend my evening telling irrelevant men that we were more than capable for paying for our own food and to just leave us the hell alone.“I don’t think I’ve ever seen such a pretty restaurant before” Makayla said the moment we both sat down and quickly chose what we wanted to eat. “This place is one of my personal favourites, if you like Italian food, you should definitely try one of their pasta dishes or a cheese and tomato oven baked pizza because both are equally a
KENDRAI don’t know how many times the doctor repeated herself and asked me if I still wanted to go ahead with the termination before I finally replied. “Yes, I’m sure” I said quietly even though something deep inside told me that I wasn’t and that I should most definitely reconsider my decision. The doctor gave me a small nod and left the room for a few minutes as she wanted to talk to discuss my case with a few other members of staff and get a second opinion, as it wasn’t often a woman carrying triplets walked into their clinic. I sighed softly and looked back at the scan machine that was frozen on the photo of my unborn babies, who I had to admit looked far from adorable at this point. “Your dumb father really wasn’t playing when he said he was the best at what he did” I thought to myself as I stared at the screen in front of me, thinking even though I was a twin myself, I never thought it would be possible for me to have triplets, or anyone for that case as it just seemed a bi
A month had passed since I had last seen Elias and to say that I missed him was an understatement. I remembered him every single day and not a day passed when I didn’t come close to ringing him and telling him to come home as I missed him terribly. I missed the way he held me in his arms, kissed me, and teased me at every given chance. There was never a dull moment whenever he was around, and I just wish he didn’t do what he did. “Kendra you alright?” Gabriel asked me as we both walked towards the conference room where my father was holding an important work meeting. “Yeah, I’m just a little tired” I said before I opened the folder I was holding in my hand and read through the first few pages, wondering how many times he had called me before he got my attention. Although he knew that things weren’t the best with me and Elias, he hadn’t said anything to me yet and I was kind of glad because the last thing I wanted to hear was him saying stuff about the man I loved. “Go home and r
