View MoreIris's POVI blushed as the events of the previous night replayed in my dreams and I smiled wish before opening my eyes, I took a moment to reflect on the happenings of the previous day and I couldn't believe my luck. Arthur was so passionate and loving, I was finally getting my dream life and my hand roamed freely on the bed in search for Arthur, but I could only feel bed linens, my eyes widened in shock and I sat up almost immediately.“Arthur.”I called out for him thrice but got no response, I stood up and checked the bathroom, but he wasn't there, my heart raced, and I almost burst into tears as it crossed my mind that he might have left me, a million questions flooded my head, didn't he believe me? Was all a dream? Did he deceive me into thinking he accepted me back? Does he not love me anymore? Am I now a burden to him? Has he been kidnapped again, or anything bad happened to him?Still confused about all that was happening, my door burst open to reveal a smiling Anna, I immedi
Arthur's POV Watching the men fight to death wasn't as interesting as I thought it would, but I seized the opportunity to try to find a way out, my arms ached as they had been tied behind me for a long time and I tried to stretch them, I realized that the rope that were used to tie my hands loosened a bit, this realization was the chance I had to escape, so I began to skillfully yet carefully try to get my hands out of the rope. Seeing that it would take ages before I'd wriggle my hands out of them and by then Knight would have murdered me or found out what I was trying to do, I decided to do it the old-fashioned way. Though it was a painful process, I had no choice, so I dislocated the bones of my thumb and bit my bottom lips in a bit not to yell out in pain, it was successfully dislocated, and I slipped it out of the rope. I tried to conceal my hitching breath and I put the bone back to its normal position and I tried it for the next finger, it was more painful than the first, b
Iris's POVDays had passed by, and I still couldn't muster enough courage to face Arthur, there are times I'd get up and even go as far and unlocking my door with the aim of going straight to his room and clarifying things to him or even forcefully demand for an explanation, but I just couldn't bring myself to do it. Most importantly; I was scared and confused at the same time, I wasn't pregnant with Kelvin because I didn't sleep with him and I didn't know how old the baby is so I could confirm my doubts about the paternity.Given the circumstances and happenings around me lately and the better part of my life, things aren't always as they seem, there might be a mix-up somewhere or this might be a set-up but my morning sickness and constant nausea coupled with the fact that I haven't seen my period for months now confirmed that I was pregnant.I finally ate after starving for a few days, but I didn't step my foot out of the room and only allowed the maids to drop it by the doorstep,
Arthur’s POV I watched in awe as a fight now ensued between Sebastian and kelvin, they got verbal, and it was an eyesore, yet I was more than willing to watch them, this provided an opportunity for me to look for a means to escape, but their noises were ear-piercing, so I had to painstakingly listen in a bid to get some information out of them. There was no way I would leave the place easily or in one piece unless I got rid of them first, but that seemed like an impossible task. I decided to worry about them later, as Iris was in danger and no one would be able to save her. Things are even worse as Kelvin, whom I thought loved her, could stoop as low as using her as bait against me, I didn’t regret coming after Iris after knowing his true intentions. Though Iris had been around me long enough to see things were, yet I fear that she was too petite and wasn’t built to go through this sort of hell. We all present in that room had dined with the devil himself and gotten our hands st
Arthur's POV“Now, I might just spare your life if you tell me where the secret treasure is" Kelvin said after a round of punching me wherever his fists landed.I looked up at him and my face broke into a smile.“Is that all you got? What a disappointment”He bent down and gave me an upper to my jaws. My brain rattled around in my skull and I suddenly felt a sharp pain building up in my thoracic region. I knew I wouldn't last much longer, but still, I would rather die than just give out the location of my family heirloom.“We knew you will be a hard nut to crack, and as such, we have prepared various gifts for you.”Kelvin moved to the table and picked up the landline, punched a number and put it to his ear. The phone beeped, then it got picked up on the other side. Kelvin paused and replied.“Bring the toys now, let's watch him play”I knew I just got into bigger trouble, but I was more prepared to die than give out the location.The doors opened and a man with a Russian build came i
Arthur's POVI could see Kelvin, then Sebastian and Knight. No way, I was probably seeing visions. Maybe the guys had tampered with my brain, perhaps I was hallucinating. Kelvin came forward and poured a glass of ice-cold water on me. It chilled to the spine. I was certain I heard footsteps, but they were all here?“Wakey wakey”Sebastian and Knight walked towards the chair where I was strapped with leather belts like a feral animal.“Oh forgive my ungentlemanly attitude, allow me to perform a little introduction here” he said mockingly.“Sebastian, Dad meet Arthur, the prodigal son”The word dad suddenly sounded differently to his ears.“Arthur, meet Sebastian and meet my father; Knight. I've heard you guys have gotten acquainted”.I was shocked, and could feel bitterness at the same time. I felt adrenaline rushing through me, and I could feel anger and disgust boiling in my bloodstream. I literally felt like killing the trio; like tearing them to pieces and feeding them to street do
Kelvin's POVThe thought of being on the run and having to go into hiding never crossed my mind when I mapped perfectly out all of my plans, everything was going smoothly so smoothly that I praised myself, Sebastian also voiced out his respect for me as I had managed not to only fool Iris but Arthur as well but little did I know that I was fooling myself.I almost this close to getting away with everything and couldn't believe my eyes when Arthur suddenly barged in and intercepted my plans, I had to flee for my dear life because no one knew Arthur better than I did. He wouldn't blink an eye to trade everything he owns for the one he cares for, but once his mind is made to destroy someone, he wouldn't stop until he did. The look on his face had shown that he was determined to kill me.Iris would have definitely known about me since Arthur took her with him, besides; there was no way he could take Iris with me as I needed to save myself first.Finding a place to stay wasn't easy as Art
Arthur's POV My plans were already in place and I began to give orders to my men, I couldn't wait to get to Kelvin and shove my gun down his ass. The tracker showed his location was in another state, and it was a long ride down there. All through I repeated the line of action and expected results to my men and contemplated calling for backup, but I didn't want to cause a huge scene or attack unnecessary attention to myself. Kelvin was smart and would try to find his way out of this, but I smirked knowing that I was smarter and a step before him, I cocked my gun and ensured I carried enough ammo with me. We got to the state hours later and headed straight to the location the tracker was pointing at, I stopped my men midway and suggested we take different routes and arrive there ar the same time, in case Kelvin had already positioned his men to watch over any suspicious activity ongoing. I prepared myself for the worse as we approached our destination, the place looked shabby from
Arthur's POVMy heart broke the moment I saw Iris's pregnancy report, words couldn't express and quantify how shattered I was, she made things worse by denying the claims which infuriated me. I love Iris, she means the entire world to me and I have come this far just for her sake, when she left me, and I was shattered I still held on hoping that she'd realize her mistake and come back to me.When she made plans to get married to Kelvin, the urge to free her from the clutches of his lie and clear her misconception about me kept me going, and I had sleepless nights trying to find tangible evidence. When I brought her back with me, and she fainted I was scared, scared I would lose her once more but seeing that she was pregnant? I was scared as well, scared I'd lose my sanity.I didn't know how to react to the hurt and kept mute even when she tried to strike a conversation with me, I was losing my mind, and it was the love that I had for her that held me back from breaking down but when
Iris POVIt all happened so fast and subtly. It gave no signs of any danger or warning. I felt like my heart was going to jump right out of my chest as I looked around. The entire living room was on fire. I had been trapped inside and the flames seemed to be getting bigger by the second. Everywhere I looked there was smoke and fire, and I knew that I had to get out of there quickly but I needed to inform my family so we could all escape together.I called for my step mother and siblings, but no one answered. I ran upstairs and looked through every room. No one was in their room. I could not help the tears that flowed. How could everyone leave so suddenly and without me? I was just in the kitchen a while back and everyone was in the Living room. Then, it hit me. They had all left me, including my own father.The heat was unbearable and the smoke was making it hard for me to breathe. Everywhere I looked, furniture was burning and the walls were crumbling around me. I could hear the crac
