~Laurel~"Kurt please, just let me go. I promise I'll stay away from you for eternity. You won't ever see me again.""Actually, that isn't what I want or what I came here for.""Then why are you here?" I whispered, trying my best to break free from him. But not only was he caging my hands above my head, he was also caging my body. Pressing me hard into the wall."Let's play a game, Laurel.""Whatever game, you have in mind, I want no part in it.""But you'll still play it, right?" He dipped his hand in his pockets and brought out his phone."What are you doing?""Relax, Laurel, it's easy. All you have to do is repeat after me. Infact it's the most simplest thing in the world to do. Just repeat the words after me."I eyes him suspiciously, my hands still above my head. "No. I won't say anything to you.""Then you'll have to look for your mother for the rest of your life.""What?" I panicked. He wouldn't dare hurt my mother. "Mom?""She's in New York isn't she? Lives in a four bedroom a

~Laurel~Kurt's eyes roamed down my body before resting on the bags in my hands."Nothing can be kept hidden in the dark forever." Kurt said, making a pool of self consciousness to fill me.I turned to Vivian behind me. "Give us a minute, please.""Sure." She said and walked out.We glared at each other for what seemed like seconds before I cleared my throat."What are you doing here? How did yo---""Find her?" He cut in roughly. "Maybe someone wasn't being loyal after all."Zach.How dare him betray me?!That bastard will pay for this!"You told me she was dead. Didn't even need a doctor to tell me that she's mine. Although, I'll still need a DNA test, but when you said she looked like me, you weren't fooling around."I gripped his jacket. "Stay away from her." I quickly let go of him when he glared at my hand. "From a child you despise? These people here aren't nice. I can't believe that you actually gave her up to them!""Kurt, lower your voice.""Why should I? How about I go tel

~Laurel~He didn't flinch. More like my slap didn't do anything to him. "Are you done?"Bastard son of a bitch. "Where's Mira? Where's Andre? Where the fuck are you keeping them?!""The things I'd want to do to you, Laurel Hyde." He said slowly, moving closer to me as I took steps backwards."I don't care about the things you wanna do to me but if you touch Mira or even Andre---""You wouldn't be able to do anything."He was right. But nevertheless, I'll still have to make believe that I was stronger than the Laurel he used to know. "I'll charge you for kidnapping and attempted murder. Do you really think you can win me in court?"That regular smirk was hovering on his lips again. "I don't need to go to a court, to win you. You see, Laurel, I've already won." The smirk broadened.Just then in a twinkle of an eye, I moved closer to one of his men and flung his gun from him.I shot in the air and lifted the gun and pointed it at Kurt."Do you really think you have the guts to kill me?'

~Laurel~Thank you, Leon." I said as Leon helped me down from my car which was parked in the garage of K-Corps.I took off my sunglasses and handed it over to him. As usual, the grumpy men were standing in front of the entrance gate of the building. But it wasn't going to happen today. I would not let them intimidate me like their boss. Like it or not, I was richer than every single staff in the building combined and I was going to show it to them. I was going to be, Laurel Hyde. The sassy and classy Laurel Hyde.As soon as they saw me coming, they blocked the entrance. I smiled. "Mick." I said to the leader of the men. "Move out of my way.""Ho--how did you know my name?""Move out will you?"Another pulled out an intercom."Bo--""If you still wanna keep your job, I suggest you put that thing back into his place." When he frowned his grumpy face, I smirked. "You see your boss and I have history together. And I believe you know me, so are you going to move out of my way or not?"~It

~Laurel~As soon as I cut the ribbons, claps and cheers gracefully filled the air."Congratulations Laurel!" Kaitlyn screamed in excitement as she lunged herself on me."Congrats, best friend." Liam said, as soon as Kaitlyn let go, coming round to pull me into a hug. I hugged him and then I hugged Wesley who wouldn't stop smiling at me."I'm proud of you.""Thanks." I said and quickly let go of him when I saw my mother."My baby!" She said and embraced me. "I'm proud of you. So so proud.""Thanks mom. I'm so happy I made all of you so proud.""You've always made me so proud, Laurel. Always."I greeted Liam's parents who also congratulated me and just then I saw Wesley's parents walking towards me. I wanted to save them the walk and so I got to them first."Congrats, Laurel." Damon Cooper said smilingly, as I shook hands with him.Beatrice Cooper, Wesley's mom hugged me. She was also like a mother to me. "Diamond collections? That's huge. Welcome to the team, Laurel.""Thanks Aunt Bett

~Laurel~After my meeting with Kurt, I traveled to Seattle for a photoshoot. On my way back, I dropped by mom's and apologized for lying to her. Then I stopped by Zach Norman's. It was obvious he was avoiding me because he didn't only blocked my number, he completely shut me out and wherever I go to find him, I'll be told he traveled for a business meeting. Even though the Zach I knew hated business trips.My car pulled off in the compound of Zach's mother. He had mistakenly told me where his mother lived, three years ago when we went out together so I decided to try my luck. I wanted to know the reason why he did what he did. I wanted to know if Kurt blackmailed him or did anything to him that made him betray me and our friendship.I knocked twice on the door but on the third knock, the door sprung open and reveled a woman in her mid-sixties. "Hello, how may I help you?""Is Zach home? I really need to speak with him."Her face beamed with a smile. A smile? Right. It was that smile

~Laurel~"Get the hell away from me!" I yelled and yelped away from him, backing off till I hit my back against the wall.He threw the mask on the floor. "Yo--you're the anonymous donor?"He smirked. "What do you think?"He was the anonymous donor. Only Kurt would sit like a deserted and lonely child when he actually had everything that would make people fly around him like flies."What are you doing here? How on earth did you find me? It's you, isn't it? You're the one following me around. What do you want Kurt?""You.""What?""It's simple, Laurel. You." He moved closer but I changed location and stepped away from him. What exactly was this man saying? What on earth is wrong with him?"Listen here, I don't know what exactly is wrong with you. You didn't only threw me out of LAGS, insulted me, you took Mira away from me and now you're talking insane things?!" I breathe out, running my hand through my hair. "Just get the fuck out. I need Jason right now.""You mean your body guard?"I

~~~~~~~Kurt~~~~~~~~"Sir she's here."The doors opened and Bella walked in. She was beautiful to everyone but to me she was ugly. I didn't compliment a woman or acknowledge their beauty, I never did. No matter how close they were to me.Bella Daniels has been my therapist since I was 17. She was related to my mom in some way or the other but that didn't matter to me. She was British, rich, 43, lived a life of luxury and was married to an american business tycoon. She was the closest person to me before and after my mom died but I had her replaced with my long time nanny, Camilla Wilson."Kurt." She called out my name in a seductive manner. "Anger issues again?""No." I tapped on my clenched jaw. "What are you doing here?""Just came to check up on you. Had lunch yet?"I got up and towered over her. "I asked you a question.""And I gave you an answer.""Bella you're not being truthful here.""Where's she?""Where's who?""Your daughter?"I dug my hands into my pockets. "Whoever I have

*One year later*~Genevieve~"Hey. You ready?"Mason asked me as he walked into the room."Do I look okay in this dress?" I said, referring to the floral gown I was wearing. "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. "It feels good

~Genevieve~He wasn't in bed with me when I woke up.I got up, stretched and slipped on his shirt. 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. "Oh my sweet little red haired baby. I love you so much my darling

~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
