~Laurel~

I dropped by at my house to change. Since it's been two fucking days since I last saw Kurt, I decided to check up on him and Mira, unannounced.

I pulled up on a simple red polo, and black jeans pant that was a bit tighter since I last wore it. My hips were wider and as a result, it was difficult to pull up the jeans without struggling first. It's been two months since I last went shopping. I've decided to go shopping after seeing Kurt and Mira.

The moment I stepped in, I saw Bella walking towards me, her whole attention concentrated on fixing her wrinkled blouse and smudged lipstick. The jealousy in me reacted to that and I wondered if it was what I was actually thinking.

Has Kurt been cheating on me?

She was a bit taken aback when she saw me. "Oh hey."

"What are you doing here?"

She quirked a funny brow and regarded me with amusement. "I don't remember seeing a wedding ring on Kurt's finger."

When she intended to walk past me, I blocked her path. "I'm his girl. The only woma

    ~Laurel~I blinked and rolled over. Mira was sleeping next to me, her arms wrapped around me protectively.A small smile tugged on my lips. Despite everything I did to her, despite everything. She saved my life.I got off the bed and crossed over to where the glass window was, opened it to review the beautiful skyline and the beautiful view and waters. I stared outside and wrapped my hand around my neck, only to feel the grasp of Kurt's hand on it again. Tears rolled down my eyes. I still couldn't believe that Kurt nearly killed me and he hadn't bothered to check if I was doing okay.I secured the duvet around Mira and walked out of the room.The first person I saw was Camilla. "Good morning ma'am. Breakfast?"I waved her off. "No thanks," I pulled out a packet of cigarettes. "Can I get a light please?"She didn't reply. She just walked out and returned few seconds later with a lighter. "Thank you." I sucked on the filter of the cigar and lit it, blowing out the smoke through my nose.

    ~Laurel~"Laurel!"Without looking back and clutching the sheets tightly, I ran into the bathroom and banged the door hard.I dropped to the floor and trailed my hand down to my thigh, tears filled my eyes when I remembered what he did last night. He had used sex to keep me from going. Forced me from leaving.Kurt had been extremely rough with me last night;had sex with me like it was the only way he needed to keep me from going. Things weren't done that way. No man has ever treated me that way before. No man. And Kurt he..he treated me like a property. I was nobody's property."Laurel!" The bastard called out from the other side."Just go away! Leave me alone!" I cried, unable to frame the thought that I would be tied to this kind of man for the rest of my life, if I let him. "God I'm so stupid. I'm so-so so stupid." I whispered, running my hand through my wild hair.Staggering up to my feet, I gazed into the mirror, freezing as I came face to face with my reflection.My eyes were re

    ~Laurel~Tired of waiting, I fished out my phone to dial Mira's number, stopped right on track when I heard footsteps behind me. When I whirled around, expecting to see Mirabelle, I was totally shocked, my heart flying out of my chest, air nearly whooshing out of my body, when I came face to face with Kurt."You."Silly of me to have uttered that word when I should have expected our paths to cross, it was his home after all. And I was just standing by my car on the driveway of his mansion."Laurel," in few strides, he was in front of me, cupping my face and kissing me slowly.I didn't want to let him win so easily but when his body was pressed against mine, there was nothing I could do other than kiss him back with the same hunger. Kissed him like he was the only I craved for. Like I had been craving his taste all day.We were breathless when we pulled away and I hid my face, resting it on his chest to cover the embarrassment on my cheeks."Laurel," That same sexy, deep tone

    ~Laurel~"Are you two still together?"I sighed. Wondering if mom knew already. "Yes. We're still together. We're just going through the usual.""Which is?"I lifted my legs on the table and ran my hand through my hair. "Mom, there is no need for you to worry. I've told you. We're fine."She stared at me in disbelief. "Are you stupid or too blind to see that he'll hurt you after this?"I was already getting angry. "He won't."She touched my arm. "Laurel--"I flared up from my chair immediately. "Mom please! Can everyone please stop telling me what to do? I'm sick and tired of everyone thinking they can just bend me however they want. I'm sick and tired of it! I wish I can just disappear to a place where I can be whoever I want without people telling me what and who to be." I said and started for the stairs."Laurel!""Mom please just leave me alone!"~*~I turned and twisted on my bed. It was nine in the morning but I didn't feel like getting up or even taking a bath. I want

    ~Laurel~"Mrs Hyde, I have no intention to hurt your daughter. At least not on purpose."Mom's eyes flared up. "Oh so you do want to hurt her then?""Mrs Hyde...""Aunt is fine.""Okay Aunt...""Listen here Kurt. You have no right, whatsoever to hurt my daughter. I know she won't stop defending you neither is she going to tell me what really happened but I need you to promise me. Promise me that you won't ever hurt my daughter again?"Kurt placed both hands on his knees. I knew that was a promise, he wouldn't be able to keep. As Kurt was concerned, hurt was a thing that came naturally with him. "I.. I can't promise you that, Aunt. I'm sorry. I know I should probably say I promise but.. I would be eventually lying to you. So it's better if I don't say the word. But I do promise that I'll try.""Good. At least you gave me something. Anytime you think about hurting her, just remember that you made me a promise to try not to hurt her. Is that okay with you?""Yes Aunt.""Good. And Laurel?

    ~Laurel~"Come for me. Now."And that was all it took for hell to break loose. I let myself go over the edge for him as he stilled, jerked a few times before climaxing into a pool of release.When the effect of the orgasms had washed away, Kurt rolled to his side, snaking one hand around my waist to pull me closer. I felt numb, brain discarded from my head and I couldn't help but ponder on the fact that Kurt was the reason behind it. He sure as hell could drive a woman crazy."How many of those have you had?" I couldn't help but let my inquisitiveness get the better of me."What?""Women. How many have you taken to bed, commanded and made feel this way?""Before or after you?"I returned him a blatant look which left him chuckling. "Kidding. Just one. I didn't actually date her," he shrugged off the mere sense of it. "But she also meant everything to me. Then."I swallowed the disgusting feeling in my throat. When I gestured to get up, he pulled me back down. "Laurel. That was then ok

    ~Laurel~"Oh my goodness!" I exclaimed, screwed the cap of a water bottle and downed every single content in it. "Oh my God. I am never getting on that thing ever again." I said, still shocked of the rollercoaster ride as Kurt handed me his handkerchief to help wipe my sweat."I warned you, didn't I?"I stared at him. Surprised by the fact that he didn't even flinch. He didn't scream during the ride, he just held on and kept squeezing my hand. Like he was encouraging me to be strong; me who couldn't stop screaming till I heard blood pounding in my ears."Have you been on a rollercoaster before?" I asked him as I crossed my arms over my chest."No.""You're lying, aren't you?" "Maybe it's just because my life has always been a big rollercoaster ride."I laughed. "Silly of you to think that way. Come on." I took his hand and started pulling him in the direction of a claw machine. We watched a couple try clawing out a toy and successfully, they did."Wanna try?" I asked him, taking a p

"I feel... really heavy, you know. I think this baby is using my energy to do kicks, don't you think?" I asked him, placing my hand over my eight months and two weeks old belly.Mason smiled and walked over to me. "You look beautiful, darling. And besides, I'm always here to lend you my strength whenever you feel too tired to carry our little Gael." He knelt before my bump and caressed it over the skimpy dress I was wearing. "Hey buddy, don't give mommy a hard time, okay? We know you wanna come out so badly but patience, little buddy, patience." He looked up at me and I smiled. Then he got up and closed his mouth over mine. "I love you, Genevieve Kenton King."I smiled as I wrapped my arms around him. "I love you too.""Now come on.

    ~Genevieve~Just like that. I couldn't believe it. She was gone.Gone forever. We weren't going to see her ever again.Some of the soldiers that had ran into the smoke, came out few minutes later with Gonzalez men. One was half-dead, the other was injured but very much alive. They put them both in the van and walked around to see dad. He was saying something in low tune to dad when another set of military men walked out of the already burnt and collapsed building with a burnt, unrecognizable body that seemed to have ropes attached to it. A body that was perhaps tied. Then I recalled Mirabelle being tied up before Ryder threw me out."No! My Mira...." Mom was already shaking in tears as they placed the body on a stretcher. Dad dropped to the ground in tears, mom was wailing profusely, Mariano remained stiff and unable to move, Mason had tears rolling down his eyes...none of us could even touch the body. It was Natasha who mustered up the courage to run to where the body was and embrace

    ~Mirabelle~"What are we going to do? He's going to kill her!" Mason exclaimed out of frustration as he plopped down on the couch, running his fingers through his hair. Mom has been trying to calm him down ever since. But it seems all her words of assurance were falling on deaf ears."My men are searching the entire city as we speak." Dad who had been on the phone came back few minutes later to the living room and said. "They couldn't have gone far. We'll get them in no time.""Hey," Mariano knelt in front of me and places his hand on lap. "Are you alright?"I shook my head."Belle, listen to me, this is not your fault.."I was trying to hold back my tears. "Yes, it is.""No, it's not. Gonzalez has been planning his escape from prison for a long time now. And it so happened to fall on the same time period of your return so none of this is your fault, okay?""Grandpa, are you going to give me to him? The bad guy?" Natasha who was in mom's arms asked Kurt who had been restless."Of cour

    ~Mirabelle~"Mama, where are we? What is this place?" Natasha asked me as Mariano pulled the car to a stop. I got out and so did Natasha, who looked inquisitive, looking around the place."Hello, Natasha."She turned to stare at the people standing few metres away, her whole face lightening up. "Grandma! Grandpa!"In a blink of eye, she was running into dad's open arms. "My lil baby. She looks just you, Mariano." Dad said to Mariano who was standing beside me as he ruffled her hair playfully, picking her up from the floor."I'm quite heavy, you know. Mama feeds me with good stuff." Natasha said jokingly."Well then, it's a good thing I have quite the strength then." Dad smiled as we walked into the house."Camilla," I greeted Camilla who was standing with the other servants. "I see you're still here." I said, moving into her arms. "Thank you.""Always, Mirabelle, always." She responded and we pulled away. "I'll make coffee and some toast."I nodded and she walked away.

Then I got up and went on a mission to go look for him.I heard noise coming from kitchen area and do I just decided to follow my instincts. To my surprise, he was standing in front of the cooker, flipping something in a pan, shirtless in an apron and in a pair of sweatpants. He turned around and our gaze met."Hey. Good morning."I smiled as I made my way toward him. "Good morning. You're up early.""Yeah, I got up to make breakfast. Come on, have a seat. Breakfast is ready."I did as he told me and sat put as he served me. Breakfast was bacon, scrambled eggs, pancakes and maple syrup.As I ate, I noticed he was stealing glances at me. "What?""You're very beautiful, Gen. Very very."I snorted, hoping that was a joke. "I'm sure I look like a mess.""You look breathtaking."I met his gaze and he smiled. Then he got up from where he sat and walked around to where I was, then to my surpris

    ~Mirabelle~A lot of people were hovering over me when I woke up. Mom, Mariano, two women, a man, Natasha...."Natasha." I called out gently and she was the first to notice as she ran into my outstretched arms."Mama! Mama, you scared the hell out of us all." She was already crying as I brushed the tears away from her face. "Mama, we were so worried...I was so worried. Promise that you won't ever make us worry like that again."I smiled and pulled her close, her head was resting gently on my chest. "I'm fine, sweetie. I'm just...scared." I admitted softly."But why are you scared, mama? We are here for you, remember? Don't be scared, okay? Daddy is here for you. I am here for you. Grandma is here for you. Don't ever feel scared, okay? You're my best friend. I wouldn't know what I'd do if anything were to happen to you. I can't ever live without you, mama."I couldn't help chuckling as I wrapped my arm tightly over her.

    ~Mirabelle~I stood there and watched as Genevieve expressed how she felt about Mason to Ryder. Ryder on the other seemed to be furious but he looked as if he was holding back from lashing out all on his anger on Genevieve. The moment he walked out, I decided to stay for a while. This was bad. I should be with her right now. She had just made a life-changing decision that would probably require a shoulder to lean on and here I was, hiding behind the wall.All of a sudden, she stood up. She glanced at the mirror and then stopped. But just before she could turn around, a hand grasped mine, pulling me into the shadows."What on earth do you think you're doing?""Mariano, she's my sister. I should be in there with her right now. I should--""Then what's stopping you?"I stared into his eyes."Go on. Go to her. She's your sister, right? She needs you. You should be with her right now. So why are you here?""I--I don't think that's a very good idea. She's down right now, I can't afford to a

    ~Mirabelle~The congregation was filled to the brim. The people present were mostly friends, elites, actresses, musicians, business elites and government officials from all over the world. From where I was seated, I could see Mariano, my friends, Gabriel and even mom. Natasha and I were both at the back row. We didn't want to draw much attention so we just hid there.Then there was Ryder at the altar, waiting like the gentleman he was. Although, there was something about Ryder. Something off about him, he didn't seem quite the man for Genevieve anymore.And then, there was the bride. Walking towards the altar with dad's arm strapped to hers. On getting to the front row, she quickly hugged mom and Gabriel before proceeding to kneel in front of the altar with her soon to be husband. After a short prayer, they were back on their feet as they proceeded to the ring part and then the exchanging of vows.Well, now it was time to declare them husband and wife."If anyone have reason why these

    ~Mirabelle~I was trying out the dresses, mom had brought earlier for Gen's wedding tomorrow. There was a silver splayed gown with emeralds, a beautiful black straight one with deep cleavage curve and split up the right thigh and a pink short one with diamonds stashed all over. According to her, the theme of the wedding was black and pink, if I wanted to fit in to be noticed, I'd wear pink but if I wanted to remain anonymous and hidden, I'd wear black.At first I didn't want to go. Mom and Mariano were the only ones who knew about my existence. Mariano had argued with mom about telling dad about me but she had slid him off, telling him the consequences that would result from my dad abruptly finding out about my existence. According to her, she would wine and dine him after Gen's wedding then tell him about me. As for now, I still have to remain hidden and try as much as possible to apply heavy makeups contrary to my skin tone, wear sunglasses and colored wigs. That way, they would nev
