"Where is Dharma?" Xander softly asks while they are snuggled in bed.

Hugging her from behind, he felt how she stiffen. Even if he won't be getting a response, he can almost infer by her reaction.

"We have identified the presence of Dharma residents in Austine City since the start of this week" he added while she remained quiet.

"Dharma has never been irrational. All countries have respected the boundaries they have set for all of us. And they've been respectful. We are fine with tourists or jobseekers from Dharma but the unusual entry of groups is putting us in a defensive situation" he carefully discussed despite not having a response from her.

There was silence after she still refused to speak. He waited, giving her time to contemplate her words. But after a while of her silence, he heaves a sigh.

"Do we have a reason to be alarmed, Skye? Do we need to raise our defense against Dharma?"

"No. They mean no harm" After her long silence, Skye spoke.

    From a cafe across the street, Skye watched the busy street in front of the WGC building. Guests start to arrive. Prominent businessmen from all over the world. WGC's aerospace launch becomes a convention of all top conglomerates around the globe. At this time, they are all gathering to have a ceremonial parade. The launch will be at Austine International Airport later today. To help his family, Alek Vasili Wright also arrived with the Petrov entourage earlier at midnight. And while WGC was flocked by world business leaders, she made an excuse to have her peaceful drink alone. Of course with her securities. She's not in the mood to be in the crowd. While sipping her fresh fruit drink she looked up to the topmost level of the building. Surely, Xander and every Wright are all busy welcoming their guests. But here she is, getting anxious again. No matter how she convinces herself that everything is good, a part of her is still apprehensive. "I really need fresh air" she whispers to

    "I'm sorry I forgot my manners. Vittorio Di Lauro, IV. Nice meeting you all"As the name came out from his lips carved with an ominous smile, warning bells started to violently ring in everyone's heads. Lucien's face darkened together with the rest. Alek remained stiff on his feet with his intense gaze boring at the old man. Wright security rounded Levinia and the others in front. All the Petrov are on their feet scattered together with all their men. Wright security rounded the strangers.Xander swiftly pulled Skye close to him, hugging her with her back against the Di Lauro. Yes, they are her people but he is clueless of their intention in coming without prior notice. Until he knows their motives, he will protect Skye from them.The rest of the guests tense and like what the Wrights did, they secure their women close to their sides. Every prominent businessman in the room has somehow encountered the name Di Lauro in the business world. And the name itself brought spine-chilling f

    Realizing what she did, Skye quickly turned away to bury her face back in Xander's chest. "A devil heiress?" He musters to whisper but Skye hides her face to avoid him. "Shut up" she snaps. She is not ready for a confrontation but she was lured into it. Despite wanting to throw a fit, she cannot in front of several watchful eyes.Xander on the other hand was left dumbfounded. His chest thundered and surely, Skye could hear it. For a moment he wavered when his head went blank. He felt lost.But with utmost perseverance, he collects his composure. He can't let himself be overwhelmed. After taking several deep breaths, he turns to share meaningful glances with his father and Alek. They too are in a state of disbelief despite seeing it coming. Their gazes averted to Skye who refused to look at anyone. It never crossed anyone's mind that Skye could be directly related to the Di Lauro clan instead of being a mere resident of Dharma. Although she manifests all the clues Xander ignores t

    "Shut up, Kiera. You want to do the dishes for three months like Marco?"Hearing her brother's warning, she pursed her lips and went back to hugging Xander. "Marco is really in trouble" she worriedly whispers while looking up at Xander who raises a brow to her. "It's not that bad" Xander placated her. "Dirty dishes of all three hundred workers in the farm. Including the pots and pans. Two meals in a day, breakfast and lunch. He could only rest at dinner time when the workers go home to their families" She explains.Xander gasps in disbelief, even Alek cringes at the idea. Three hundred people? They can't imagine how many dishes Marco would battle every day. "I would prefer to handle several meetings and sign documents" Xander anxiously whispers."Exactly" She replies while glancing at her mother. "You brought it to your brother, Kiera" the Di Lauro matriarch glares at her while she guiltily purses her lips. She tries to glance at her father for help but she only gets a sympatheti

    "Mama! Look who came to pick me up" Skye turns to her son who is running towards her. But the man closely behind him made her furrowed her brows. She was not aware Nico's security changed. "Hello, my little dove" She carefully crouches down with Xander to hug her son but her eyes curiously glance at the man standing close to them. "Hello, Mama. Hello, Papa. Look who is with me" Nico hugs them both before raving about the man who accompanies him. "Who is he, my little love?" Indeed she was curious. He doesn't look like one of the Wright security. He is in casual clothes, a plain white T-shirt with a black jacket paired with tattered jeans. "The scary man, Mama. He helped Uncle Marco and Auntie Chelsea to protect me from bad people at the airport" the boy explains but it made her more confused. "The day you arrived?" She narrows her eyes to him."Yes, Mama. The scary man gave us the number to call Papa, but it was Uncle Alek's number. Still, Papa found me. We were saved. All the b

    "Let me hold you, Skye" He begs as he struggles with his ragged breath."No" She breathlessly refused. "Argh...this is torture" Gulping hard, he deliriously watched her gorgeous nakedness bouncing up and down against his rock-hard splendour. "Shit" He mutters under his breath as he watches his glistening shaft appear and disappear from his sight at Skye's every plunge. With her riding atop him, he could see how her body arched to the pleasure of their joined bodies. But she forbade him to touch her, and it was torture.The pinkish twin buds are tempting him as they bounce at her every move. His hand itched to hold and play with its softness. "You're so gorgeous, my love" he huskily whispers.Her skin glimmers under the dim light of their bedroom and he is going crazy not to cover it with his kisses. "Why can't I take you all in?" She breathily whimpers while trying to push herself to take him all. "Argh...shit you're so huge" She grimaces at the discomfort inside after she tried

    "This is not a farm but a plantation" Xander mutters upon seeing the endless land they are passing by. A few weeks after the launch, the family decided to pay homage to Skye's hometown. She will soon give birth to another two heirs and the Wright family will ask her hand for marriage in respect to her family and heritage. Xander, together with his entire family left Austine City with their private plane at dawn and arrived in Dharma with the sun already high up in the sky. Even Lucien and Lexie were astonished by the scenery they were passing by. The only boundary of the vast land they are seeing is the horizon. All they could see was vineyards. "This is where all the wines you are enjoying from Azure Cork and Barrel came from" Skye softly explains while glancing at Xander's parents and siblings, Alek and Lissie. "The three hundred workers could not finish tending this in a week" Xander mumbles while raising his brows to Skye. "Ahm, we have the machinery to do the massive parts

    "The man who could end your life anytime soon" The clicking of the pen randomly distracts the silence that fell upon the massive receiving room of the Di Lauro mansion. "What did you say?" With a deathly stare, Darvid turned and made a step toward where Xander was standing. "I hate repeating myself" Xander shrugs while he remains leaning on the wall. "End my life, you say?" Snickering, Darvid grimly mutters and is about to charge him. The other two did the same while drawing their pistols. But the clinking of metal distracts them from charging forward. Everything happened so fast that they only realized what ensued when bullets fell to the floor followed by the dismantled parts of guns. With stunned faces, Darvid's two bodyguards stare at their weapons on the floor while holding the remaining parts in their hands. Even Darvid froze on his feet. He forgot Kiera Azure has ways with weapons. She was so quick they didn't realize she was already at their side. "You dare draw a

    (Flashback Chapter) She almost ran to the restroom upon spotting one. She has been holding her pee for just several minutes but the fullness of her bladder seems to be on the verge of bursting. She's only sixteen weeks pregnant but her constant trip to the restroom is quite a hassle. "Hah! At last" Her contented smile and a loud sigh of relief echo in the stillness of the cubicle after she relieved herself. She quickly washed her hands and went out. "Let's get back, Madame?" Luis's voice startled her when she got out. The man standing at the very entrance of the restroom. "You scared the hell out of me Luis" Clutching her chest, she incredulously raves. "Sir Xander strictly ordered not to lose sight of you, Madame. He will kill me if I lose you here"Scratching his head, he explains. "I won't be lost inside the restroom" Rolling her eyes, she walked past him. He closely followed behind while his other men, wearing casual clothes like him, discreetly rounded her spot. They are o

    "CEO Wright, what can you say about the decision of Azure 42 to stop racing?" They are walking toward their vehicle to go home but media people follow them around. During the awarding, Azure 42 declared her retirement from racing. Even he was surprised by her decision but it was a relief for him and the entire family. However, his wife's declaration is a surprise to the racing community and they have been trying to get his insights. Earlier, his mother fainted with the discovery of the real identity of Azure 42. After Kiera took off the headgear, Lexie paled upon seeing the racer's face. Like a lighted candle, she melted on her seat. Thankfully, Lucien has been holding her, it deters her fall. Lissie was also dumbfounded, she wasn't responsive for several moments. It was a surprise his mother and sister obviously did not enjoy at all. "My wife has said what she has to say. She will focus on our family" he patiently explains while holding Kiera's hand. She had showered and now wea

    "Mr. CEO, the CEO of DL Freedom Group of Companies has arrived" Collins entered."Just in time" Glancing at his watch, he mumbles. "The press is already settled" Collins added. "Good" After gathering the document on his table, he stands up. Today, the Wright Group of Companies will seal a business venture with the two companies under the DL Freedom Group of Companies through a contract signing and press conference."Are they comfortable in the waiting area?" He asks while handing the documents to Collins."Yes, sir. Snacks are served while they wait" Collins nods and smiles before they head out of the door."Perfect" Satisfied, he smiles.

    "You may kiss your bride" The new Governor announced and loud applause from the massive crowd followed.With the streak of tangerine of the setting sun, painted in the sky, he cups her face for a brief yet soulful kiss. It was like their first time to kiss that both were unwilling to release each other. If not for the clearing of throats from their families, they would definitely deepen the duel. "I present to you, our newly married couple, Mr. and Mrs. Xander Voulker Wright" Wide tearful smiles adorned the faces of the entire family. Even the serious-looking men on the opposite side of the aisle are wiping the sides of their eyes. The Di Lauro brothers. Amidst the hoots and jovial applause from all their guests and families, their foreheads remain plastered together as they hug each other. It was a festivity in the entire Dharma, the marriage of the only heiress of the Di Lauro family. However, guests do not wear expensive tuxedos or elegant dresses. Contrary to the luxury the

    "Care for a drink?" A glass of sweating pineapple juice is slowly placed in front of her. Staring at the thirst quencher treat, a smile carves her pink lips, bare of any lip color. "Pineapple juice? Really?" She snickers as she scoffs. "The safest offering" The man casually shrugs after settling next to her at the bar counter. "Do you think this can earn my interest?" She sneers, glancing at the man before her eyes return to stare at the sweating glass. "I don't need the drink to earn your interest, I already have it. It's just a freebie" he winks, making her incredulous. "Cocky" She scoffs. "I saw how your eyes linger" He took a sip from his glass with a smile lingering on his lips. "Well, I appreciate magnificence when I see it" She dismissingly shrugs. "Exactly" He smirks, glancing at her. Realizing she wouldn't win against him, she took a sip of his offering while shaking her head. For a while, no one speaks. They contented themselves consuming their drinks and watching

    "Do you think I will approve of it, Kiera Azure? You and the Di Lauro heirs' place are here in Dharma""Grandpa" Skye tried to beg but her old man averted his gaze to the kneeling men on the ground. "Dismiss" One word and the governor together with his entire entourage scrambled on their feet to leave. Some of them run toward Darvid and his friends to help them to the vehicle. Shortly after, the yard is empty of visitors. Men, rounding the clearing earlier start to leave, giving the family privacy."Are you not tired of roaming the world, Kiera?" After a while of empty silence, Tonino turns to ask."I'm staying for good, Grandpa. I will stay wherever Xander brings me and our children. That is where my place is" She tenderly smiles while begging him with her eyes. "Dharma is for you and your children. Why should you want to be somewhere else other than here? This is your home" her grandfather mutters. "With due respect, sir. A wife's home is with her husband" Xander seriously poin

    "Let's go. Let's see what the Governor's purpose for his visit" With eager curiosity in his voice, Tonino continues walking. This time his steps are quicker than earlier. Xander promptly follows. He believes Skye will not be harmed in her territory, but the presence of the father of Skye's suitor is unsettling in his peace. They were almost brisk walking and he was surprised when the old man held onto his arm for support. It was a long path and with his age though he is stronger than those his age, it drained his strength. With the old man's arrogance, he chose not to show a reaction. Growing up, they have been surrounded by proud elders. He is already aware of how fragile their pride is. While pushing the cart, he tries to keep up with the old man's pace. It took them a while to reach the front yard where the Di Lauro men, led by Vittorio Di Lauro were already gathered. Skye is nowhere around to his relief. Seeing the grim faces of everyone, he could tell a standoff might happen
