The entire time the doctors administer Arah her medicines, Luther remains quiet at the side, calmly watching. His grim disposition did not affect the procedure despite the anxiousness of the team towards him. He remains with his unremarkable propensity while watching. And without a word, he brought her inside their room after it was finished. His head is filled with thoughts he tries to set aside at the moment. Arah left him in his silence but was startled when he tightly hug her after they enter the bedroom."I'm sorry I was not by your side when it happened" he whispers while buried in her neck."I was fine, Riley, my brother, kept me safe. He protected me from those hooligans" she assured him."You have a brother?" moving away to look at her, he asks."Yes. He is fifteen" she smiles upon remembering Riley."He is a great kid" he smiles seeing the fondness in her eyes. "Yes, he is. If not for him, it could have been worse" she nods."I should meet him and your family" he mumbles.
"Thank you for keeping your promise...ahhn..." despite being breathless, Arah thanked him while bouncing at his every deep thrust. Pinned on the bed, she embrace his weight in pure ardor. She loves being under Luther, naked and joined to him. "I'm looking forward to this too, pumpkin" hoarsely, he mumbles while buried in her neck. His hips continue to move in a steady rhythm while her slender legs wrapped around him. "I miss this kind of fullness inside me, baby. You're huge...ahhn...so good..." she cannot seem to keep up with her ragged breath as he drills her deeply. Though he tries to be gentle, his every thrust is a massive attack on her sanity. "And I miss your tightness around me. Deliciously squeezing...argh..." his rough breath fanned her fevered skin as they move in rhythm. "Ahhhn..." her moan has been filling the silence of their bedroom as he fastens his hips. In a push and pull motion. Their joined naked bodies sprawled in the middle of their bed.It's a ritual they ha
Gaping faces watch as the newly arrived entourage casually walks the path of their driveway. While Diane clings to her husband's arm as they stand beside the door, waiting for them to come closer.It was early in the morning and they are preparing breakfast when the doorbell rings. Kevin got to the door but what he found on their doorstep made him call for his wife. A grim-looking man stands at the door, whom he assumes was the one who ring the doorbell. Seeing the distress of his parents, Riley follows them and they were all stunned to see several grim-looking men surrounding their house. They have a peaceful and quiet neighborhood but surely their neighbors noticed the uproar. Several black SUVs were parked along the road and men in black suits were stationed everywhere. "Will we call Calvin?" Diane nervously asks. "My phone is on the table" Kevin whispers, hoping Riley would have time to call his uncle. But whatever they intend to do abruptly halted seeing the figures going do
Despite several prestigious hotels in the city, Arah and Luther choose to stay with the family for the night. And their decision made Diane cry with happiness. "I'm sorry for being a crybaby" she sniffs while trying to compose herself. She can't help but cry about the happiness she feels to be with her daughter and her fiance longer than she had expected. "Mom..." Arag hugs her, snuggling into her. More than the luxury the world could offer, she will always choose to be at home with people dear to her. Luther let Arah spend the entire day with her family. Setting aside the impending meeting with the street mobs. Today is for his lovely Arah to be with her family. And the happiness reflecting on her face is priceless. The whole time they are with them, he saw another side of her. A clingy daughter and gushing sister. Arah would always snuggle close to her mother and sometimes to Riley. The boy obviously adores his sister so much that he would always peck her a kiss on her forehead
The entire time on the ride back home, Luther has been very quiet. His grim demeanor made everyone silent and anxious. Diane did not let go of Kevin's hand. Gripping tightly while trying to calm herself from the unbearable tension around the grim man across from them. Kevin also has been stealing cautious glances at him. Still cannot believe of the power and influence the Steel has. No man could have such command in a short period. He could crush an enemy in a matter of minutes. And thinking about it, a spine-shivering fear runs through his body. Luther Steel and his influence are scary. He is fortunate he is a family to him and not an enemy. Despite being aware of her family's predicament, Arah focused on Luther. He has been lost in his thoughts so she let him in his silence. More than anything he is having a serious battle with the devil inside his head. And to help him win, she tightens her hold on his hands. "I will not be threatened of losing you, Amara" he mutters after his l
"Arah?"An unsure but ecstatic voice reached Arah's ear while leisurely walking with her mother inside one of the boutiques they visited. Right after Luther and Kevin left, they drop Riley at school and went straight to the mall. They will pass time, shopping. Turning in the direction of the voice, she saw a woman smiling at her. Her narrowed eyes are trying to familiarize herself, ensuring she got the right person."Arah, it's you!" confirming it was Arah, she excitedly waves at her. She cannot come close due to the security rounding them. "Stacey" she softly mumbles, unsure. She intently stares at the waving woman and she ascertains it was Tim's ex-girlfriend."Yes, Stacey. We went to the same university. Remember me? I was once with Timmy Steel" she fervently reminds her and it indeed refreshes her memory."Yes, I remember" she smiles and though she is not that ecstatic about meeting a previous schoolmate, she was quite glad to see her again. It's been long years."How are you?
"Why are you doing this Stacey?" calmly, she asks. She cannot think of a reason to justify her action. She was fine earlier and she shows no hint she has such a plan. "I'm dying to do this since a long time ago, bitch. I hate you since university days" Stacey sneers while looking so proud of herself.She was in disbelief but she remains enigmatic. She wanted to know more of Stacey's thoughts and maybe buy some time. She needs to be safe or Luther will rant her head off later. "My patience has paid off. I know you will be coming back after waiting for months" she jeers, looking satisfied with herself. "What do you mean? You knew I was here before?" Arah narrows her eyes, thinking. They have been lied to. Stacey told them earlier she was just on holiday work. "Oh yes, I accidentally saw you twice several months ago together with a younger man in this Mall. It was unexpected since I never thought you will ever leave Belmont city. The last time I heard about you is you were with Luthe
Staring at Luther's calm yet questioning eyes, Arah remains speechless while gaping. She wasn't expecting him to be at the mall at this time. "Hello, baby. You finished early?" instantly, a sweet smile carves her face. She was delighted by his presence but at the same time anxious because of the situation with Stacey. How long has he arrived?"I'm yet to finish. But something important came up" he calmly replies while walking towards her. His earnest yet gentle gaze was fixed on her. Levy excused himself to attend to the whimpering woman on the floor. He commands his men to take care of their mess.While Diane rushed to leave after spotting Kevin and Calvin entering the door. Though she was curious how the men came this quickly, she runs to her husband's open arms. Kevin hugs her tight the moment he caught her. Calvin pat Diane's back before helping Levy and George. He has to make sure the commotion in this part of the mall will not be disclosed to the public. He already has his me
"You're such a menace! Wait until the CEO and Dr. Steel know about this. They will surely return you to the orphanage. Where you should belong!" "Enough and leave, Madame. You're scaring her" Zack, the head of security of Amari, grimly mutters while hugging the already crying girl. "How could you tolerate such behavior? Are you informing the CEO of her menace here in school? You should tell him so they would know how to deal with her. You are just conforming to the brat's whim" ignoring Zack, the woman continues. "She is a disgrace" with pure disdain, she declares. "Stop it, madame or I will throw you out" Zack angrily warns while trying to avoid Amari from hearing what the woman has been saying. They have an order not to intervene in any school dealings but Amari got into a fight with her classmate in primary two. Unfortunately, the mother was outside and the moment she knew of what happened to her daughter, she angrily confronted Amari. Zack and his men have to intervene af
"I heard he is a famous playboy abroad""No doubt about that. Look how gorgeous he is" "Can you see his package? Huge. That's heaven inside his black swimming shorts""I could imagine how he will fill me inside" dreamily, someone added."Not to mention the rumors about him being a billionaire""Yes, I've noticed several security around him when he arrives. He must be very rich""I need to be acquainted with him""I need to have him tonight. I can't let this moment pass without having that stunning man""But I've noticed a ring around his ring finger. Could he be married?" "I don't care if he is married. The hell I care about his wife. Anyways, she won't know I tasted her husband" snickering, the woman haughtily raves. "Men as gorgeous as him should not be kept for one woman alone. He should be shared""But the real battle is how you could approach him without being thrown away. A lot had already tried and they were not even halfway to him when security appears to stop them" with a
Flashback: Night of the graduation ball.Then...She never had thought that she will be having the man that every woman covets at the party. Before she and Tim left, he was with Stacey. And whatever the reason why he was in her room, she no longer wants to ponder deeply. He was drunk and he might have mistaken her for Stacey after he entered the wrong room. "You have mistaken me for Stacey" she whispers. It somehow hurt her but she tries to cast it aside. She doesn't want to ruin this night. So with a determined will, she let Luther Steel worship her body. The pleasure he is bestowing her is mind-blowing and all she could do is moan and grunt. Despite it being dark, she could imagine their act like it was being flashed in her very eyes. Luther, in between her slender legs, doing wonders that are making her writh in pure pleasure. While his hands are exploring her nakedness. Playing with her twin peaks. "Ahhn..." she lewdly moans, arching at the bliss of his relentless lips and t
Arah looks around the place that is very familiar to her. It has undergone some renovations but it's still the same place as she remembers. But she cannot understand why Tim ask at this time to talk to her. It was her wedding night and what was more surprising was when Luther let her come with his brother. Though he had a valid reason to make sure the children were settled at home before spending their wedding night away from home, something is not adding up. "What is this all about, Timmy?" chuckling, she asks the quiet man beside her. They are at the bar waiting for their drinks. "Don't overthink. I just want to spend time with my best friend. It's been a long time since we had this time alone" playful, he responded. "Yeah, we both got busy" quite guilty, she mumbles. These past months have been a mixture of setbacks and feats. "It's understandable. Your family is growing and you should prioritize them" he fondly smiles while she responded with the same fondness. "Thank you f
"Mama... "One word that made Arah gasp before bursting into tears. It was a softly spoken word but reached her ears. However, not only her heard the small voice. Luther's eyes widen in disbelief while his mother has the same predicament as Arah. Their eyes brimmed with tears as they all stare at the calm orbs staring at the bride. "My little dove...yes Amari, mama is here" cupping her face, she tenderly speaks to her daughter. "Mama..." And there it is again, making her laugh with pure happiness while tears freely stream down her face. Unconcerned about the light makeup she wears. "Yes, my little love" she quivers. "You're giving me the greatest gift on my wedding day, Amari" she happily exclaims while scooping her from Helen. Amari just look at her for a moment, seeming to be memorizing her face. And Arah let her while watching her gray orbs trailing her face with her calm gaze. They waited for her next word. Though Arah was already contented hearing her speak a single word.
Three months after she gave birth, Arah is now ready to walk the aisle with scattered rose petals.Her wedding day. The day she will officially be Mrs. Luther Steel.Wearing an all-white gemstone embellished wedding gown, she stands in front of the closed door that would lead her to the altar. A tearful smile carves her face upon hearing the wedding music from outside. And on the other side of the door, she knows her mother is waiting for her together with Riley. Riley will accompany their mother to walk her to the altar where Luther is already waiting. It was supposed to be her father but until this morning she got no confirmation from him.The thought of not having her dad on her wedding day made her heart heavy. But she can't allow her mood to be dampened. Taking several deep breaths, she calm herself and plastered a smile on her face. Trying to tear herself away from depressing thoughts, she slowly shakes her head and thinks of people who love her.Outside, Luther and their ent
"We cannot find anything about the child. The two adults with her are also unknown. They are not in any records. They may not be from here, sir. No relatives even friends" one of Luther's men reported. Arah looks at Luther, worry reflecting in her eyes. They are trying to help locate the relatives of the child she helped from the accident. It's been a month but no one visits her. Even the dead bodies of her parents remain unclaimed. The city has no choice but to just bury them in one of the public cemeteries. "We suspect they are illegal immigrants. We don't have a name for the three victims. We also find nothing in their belongings to help us with their identity" the man continues. "Then expand the investigation to other countries. I want to know where she came from. She can't be a Jane Doe. Somewhere, someone knows who they are" Luther dismissed. He doesn't like to be at a dead end. "Yes, sir. We will immediately report once we got any information. The team is moving now. Sir Ba
If the outside was magnificent, the inside is perfection.With uniformed maids lined on both sides of the entrance, they are welcomed by the head steward. Indeed, she feels like a queen even without a crown. Everything is pure grandeur. "Welcome home, Dr. Rechner. Young master, Zebastian"Fond smiles adorned everyone's faces while looking at the asleep baby in Luther Steel's arm."This is Roel, he manages the household staff" Luther introduce the man to Arah."Nice meeting you, Roel" smiling, she offers her hand, which he readily accepted."It's my great honor to serve your family, CEO Steel, Dr. Rechner" Roel sincerely responded.After their polite interaction, Roel introduces the fifteen household staff to the couple. People who will their family.Awed by the beauty of their new home, she continue to gawk with teary eyes."How long did it take to construct this?" she softly asks. He is curious about the timeframe. "The structural plan has been with me for years. The landscape ha
"Boss"George and Levy barge inside. Immediately, they found Luther on the bed looking disoriented and disheveled from sleep."Son, what's wrong?" Eric worriedly asks while closely following behind. His eyes furrowed upon seeing him in a state of disorientation.Even the medical team dashes inside to check out the commotion. "Arah? Where is Arah?" still disoriented, he raves in panic. He has been scorching the spot next to him, seeming to find something in space.But before anyone could respond the bathroom door opens."Ther? What's wrong?" Arah, who is supporting herself on the doorknob worriedly asks.All eyes turn in her direction and immediately, the medical team ran to help her. While Luther gapes at her in surprise, dumbfounded.George and Levy heave a sigh of relief upon seeing her. They are on guard for the possible danger that may come upon the couple though the place is highly secured. "What's wrong, Ther," she asks again after getting no response. Slowly, she was led bac
