~Amanda~
Slowly,I turned around to find my mother standing at the door with a surprise look on her face.She looked at the sleeping Gabriel on the hospital bed then turned to look at me.“Is it true?”She asked and I could see so many unasked questions in her eyes.Taking a deep breath,I nodded hesitantly.“Ye…yes.”I said in almost a whisper but loud enough for my mother to hear what I had just said.“How?”She asked as confusion took over her features.”As far as I remember,you told us that you didn't know about Ariana's father because it was a one night stand and you never saw the man ever again since he was gone when you woke up.”I took a sharp breath when I heard my mother's words.I looked away, feeling guilty for lying to her all this time.“Can we talk about it somewhere else?I think this is not the right place.”My mother nodded to my words.I turned to look at Gabriel one last time t~Amanda~Leon heaved a deep sigh then shook his head.The little hope that I had on my way to the hospital flew through the window.“The doctors are checking up on him right now.”He explained to me,”What about you take a little break?I will watch over him.”I told Leon and I could see conflict in his eyes.“Are you sure you're going to be alright? Gabriel will kill me in case something happens to you.”I couldn't help but roll my eyes when I heard his words.“You're worrying too much,Leon.I think it will be good if you change,”I nodded to his blood stained clothes.“That's right,”He chuckled,”Call me in case of anything, okay?”He told me and I nodded.I could tell that Leon was really worried about Gabriel and I was glad to know that he had such a caring friend.The door clicked open and doctors walked out of the room,”How is he?”I asked one of them.“His body is responding r
~Amanda~“Ga…Gabriel,”I stuttered, afraid that I might be dreaming.The corner of his lips curved into a smile.The smile that I have been craving to see on his face so bad.Gabriel wiped tears from my eyes and that is when I realised that I was crying.Damn it!Only the heavens knows how much I had missed his touches that sent a shiver down my spine.My eyes shuttered effortlessly and I leaned in to feel more of his touch.Just this once,I decided to let all my emotions get the better of me and more tears streamed down my cheeks.Gabriel growled and that made me open my eyes,”I don't like to see you crying,”He said and I could feel the annoyance in his voice.“But…I can't help it.”I said in almost a whisper but loud enough for him to hear what I had just said.“I was so scared, Gabriel.”I confessed how I was feeling deep inside me.“When you dropped on the ground in the study room.I was so scared that I was going t
~Amanda~Gabriel pulled back and pretended as though he didn't want to kiss me in the first place.I almost groaned but looking at our daughter's cute innocent face made my lips curve into a smile.“Mommy!”Our daughter screamed at the top of her voice and I could feel the longing in her voice.She ran to us and jumped on the bed, giggling.“Careful dear,”I whispered as we hugged so tightly.My mother stared at us with a smile, Gabriel as well.“Did you miss mommy?”I asked my daughter after pulling off from the tight embrace and she nodded with a pout.“Yes,you lied that you'll come back.”I swallowed when I heard my daughter's words,”Mommy is so sorry for lying to you, okay? It's just that,I got a little busy.”I brushed hair strands from her face and tucked it behind her ear.“Grandma told me that you're taking care of uncle Gabriel because he got hurt,”She turned to look at Gabriel and I could see worry
Chapter 103~Gabriel~”“For what?”She asked in confusion,”For everything.”The frown on her face only deepened when she heard my words.“I know I owe you an apology because Amanda went through alot in the past because of me.”I paused and took a deep breath.“I can't help it but feel guilty because you're treating me with love despite knowing the truth.''I bowed my head once again.I couldn't remember when was the last time I felt this way in my life.I felt as though I had committed an unforgiving crime.I wanted Amanda's mother,I mean our mother, to know that I was really sorry about what happened between Amanda and I in the past.“I swear I didn't have any idea that Amanda was pregnant when we parted ways in such a heartbreaking way back in campus.I tried looking for her so that I could explain everything to her but all my efforts to search for Amanda was in vain.I searched the whole of
~Amanda~THREE WEEKS LATER Gabriel recovered from the poison and now he is doing alright.He is back to training to get back his strength because the poison weakened his immune system.I have been training too so that in case the enemies attack the pack,I will be able to protect our daughter and future kids.I haven't gone to the company for the past three weeks.Andrew has been in charge of everything and he always informed me how was running in my absence.I have to say that I'm grateful for having Andrew as a working partner because he is amazing to work with.Andrew has closed a couple of deals in my absence and handled the company so well.I’m not that surprised because his parents were entrepreneurs too.Apart from having shares in our company,Andrew owns other businesses which were left under his name by his parents.I was surprised when Andrew visited Crescent Moon to check on Gabriel and wished him a quick recovery.As far as I could remember,the two didn't get along that well.I
AMANDA Oh heavens!It was finally happening!He finally popped the question!I nodded my head almost immediately,”Yes, Gabriel.I will marry you!”The tension on his face faded away and it was now replaced with a big smile.He heaved a deep sigh.I didn't know he was that nervous while asking the question.Gabriel picked the ring and grabbed my hand then slowly slid the engagement ring on the middle finger of my left hand.The ring felt cold against my finger and it fitted perfectly,as though it was made just for me.Gabriel stood up and wiped tears from my eyes, that's when I realised that I was shading tears of joy.“I can't wait to call you wifey…”He chuckled then leaned and kissed me.“Mine!”He said possessively in my head as he kissed me so deep,”I can't wait to be your wife.”I told him through the mind link and he groaned in response.We continued to kiss so passionately.Gabriel hoisted me and I wrapped my legs around his waist so tightly.He gave my arse a gentle squeeze and I let ou
~Amanda~“Yes,right there…”I let out a strangled moan, wrapping my legs around his waist tightly,stopping him from moving an inch away from me.My fingers were tangled in his hair,my eyes shut and my breath hitched.I felt the familiar build up at the tip of my stomach and I could tell I was so close to climax.He always knows where to find that spot that made my toes curl.He always knows how to make me beg for more.He knows where to touch me to make my knees weak.He knows me too well…He's bad at doing all those wicked things to me,and I like it.“Where?”He whispered in my ear, biting my earlobe teasingly,”You mean here?”He thrust deeper and another moan tore from my lips…“Ladies and gentlemen,we have begun our descent into Alvannia city.Please turn off all portable electronic devices.In preparation for landing,be certain your back is straight up and your seatbelt is fastened.”The plane attendant's voice brought me back to the real world.I was daydreaming about him again and I hated
~Amanda~I blinked once, twice, thrice just to make sure that my eyes were not playing some kind of tricks on me.How?How was it even possible?What the hell was he doing here and how come he turned out to be my stepbrother?I just couldn't believe it.Why did it have to be him out of all the men out there?When I found out that I had a Stepbrother just a few minutes ago,I was so excited and anxious to meet him.However,I think I wasn't excited anymore.Even though five damn years had passed.I could still recall those piercing grey eyes.His dark hair was longer compared to five years ago,it fell on his shoulders and it was messy.I couldn't remember seeing him with such long hair.He had grown taller than the last time I saw him.He was more masculine and he looked more manly as many years had passed by.The boyish look was long gone and now it was replaced by a more masculine look.He looked surprised too.Perhaps,he recognised me as well.I was supposed to be happy that he still remembere
