Emily's POV.

"This is ridiculous," Mrs Gonzalez breathed out, her gaze fixed intently on me.

"Alright, that's enough for now, we just arrived, and I'm sure Emily is jet lagged," Adrian quickly grabbed my hands.

"I'll meet you later for the report Dad,"

And with that, he led the way toward the stairs.

"I hope this suits your taste?" He said as he led me to a large room, beautifully designed. "It's just for tonight, we leave for my house tomorrow,"

"It's perfect, thank you," I mumbled, my gaze fixed on the floor, unable to look him in the eyes.

"You can settle in then, and get a good rest, you must be tired, I'll be in my room, if you need anything don't hesitate to have the house workers direct you to my room," he added and I nodded frantically.

Without saying any more word to me, he turned around and headed out but I was quick enough to grab his hands before he walked out of the door.

"Uhm... Do you need anything?" His gaze was everywhere but my face, it was obvious that he was avo

    Emily's POV.I stirred tiredly, my eyes weakly snapping open to a brand new day. I have never looked forward to a new day the way I desperately craved for it last night. It felt like everything kept going wrong with each passing second and the only solution was to magically jump into a new dawn.Well, here it was and I couldn't be more happy. It was finally time to leave the Gonzalez mansion for Adrian's home. I could tell it will be a lot of fresh air, and finally I could be somewhere safe from Elisha. After our encounter last night, she had left with heavy anger, not without mentioning that this was far from being over. I couldn't deny the fact that I was fed up already, this wasn't how I envisioned my life after the divorce to turn out. I wanted peace, which Liam never offered and I was determined to offer it to myself and my unborn child the best I could, but right now, it seemed impossible. Elisha was out to eliminate me from Adrian's life and Mr and Mrs Gonzalez doesn't see

    Emily's POV.I refused to let Mrs Gonzalez's attempt to pay me off get to me. If I wanted such an easy way out, I would have taken the credit cards that Liam offered to me in a platter of gold, but that was far from being my problem. I needed a safe environment for my child and I, and that I must surely get.My bags were already packed, I couldn't wait to leave for Adrian's house. Maybe I could get some peace and quiet that I craved. I was determined to quickly find a way to sort myself out so I don't have to depend on Adrian throughout my stay here, despite the hand of help he has extended to me. I wasn't prepared to take advantage of that. Maybe I could get a job, that way I could provide for myself and my child, and then I could afford an apartment. I wasn't intending to live with him forever. He's done enough already. After getting my things ready, I laid back on the bed and awaited Adrian's arrival. Slowly I drifted off into a deep.A soft knock on the door jerked me up from

    Emily's POV."It was nice having you here, Emily," Mrs Gonzalez blurted with a smile that anyone could easily detect was fake.She was walking us towards the car, together with Mr Gonzalez and Emma. "Same here, Mrs Gonzalez," I replied. "Do I look forward to you reaching out about our little discussion? I'm sure once you've given it a good thought, you'll come around," she winked secretly in a way, only I could see it. "I don't think that would be happening ma'am, but if anything changes, I know where to find you," I flashed her a knowing smile. I could see the tiny glint of anger flashing through her eyes but she tried so hard to hide it away. "You both are speaking in parables, is there something going on?" Adrian asked, dragging his gaze from me to his mother."Don't be nosy, it's strictly ladies' business, right Emily?" She turned towards me with a raised brow and I nodded slowly. The little walk from the front porch to the car seemed to be taking forever. I wanted to be as

    Emily's POV.A soft knock on the door woke me from my deep sleep.Dragging my gaze to the wall clock, my eyes flew wide open in shock, it was mid morning. I quickly climbed down from the bed and headed towards the door. Pulling it open, a middle aged woman stood at the doorstep with a covered tray on her hands."Good morning ma'am," she greeted with a bow."Hello?" I replied curtly. "I brought your breakfast ma'am, you didn't come down to the dining room so I decided to bring it up here," she said."Uhm... Who are you?" I furrowed my brows at her. "My name is Helen, I'm the chief cook, the rest of the house workers are back too," she replied."Oh, uhm... Come in then," I mumbled, stepping away from the door and she walked in.My gaze followed her every move as she walked towards the center table and dropped the tray, then bowed and left.I couldn't help but wonder why she kept bowing to me? And referring to me as "ma'am" Walking back to the bed, my eyes suddenly landed on a littl

    Liam's POV."What is it you are telling me?" I turned towards the detective behind me with a huge scowl on my face."Sir, we are doing everything possible....""And yet you haven't found her yet?" I cut in abruptly. "We are quite close, it's taking a bit of time but I promise you, we will get to her soon," "It's been a whole week, I made it clear how fast I wanted her found!" My fist came down hard on the bar counter, drawing the attention of others at the bar but I cared less. All I wanted was to set my eyes on Emily again. "I'm sorry...""Leave..." My words were laced with pain and defeat, I was beginning to embrace the reality of my situation. Emily might never be found, she could be on the run from me. Who wouldn't be? She endured more than anyone could. "Sir...""Leave immediately!" I bored out my frustration through a loud scream.I didn't need to raise my head from the bar counter to notice they were gone. How did I ever think that Emily will be found despite all that sh

    Liam's POV.I stirred gently in my sleep, wrapping my arms around the slender body lying beside me. I smiled as the flashback from our tender moment the previous night came rushing into my head.We made love, it was the most beautiful thing, her tender skin rubbed against mine, her soft moans, just like pure melody, filtered into my ears begging me not to stop as I thrust harder into her. I never thought I'd ever experience that with her, I thought I lost her forever. I felt whole again, the unbearable pain and torture had flown off the window the moment I set my eyes on her. I couldn't believe she was really here, in my arms, her fingers digging into my skin as I thrust into her while she moved to meet my thrusts.She was really back, for good. And I'm keeping her forever. I'd be a fool to let her out of my sight ever again, not even for a second."I'm glad you are back to me," I mumbled wrapping my arms safely around her, pulling her deeper into my arms.Somehow, something still

I was treated with so much care and everyone contributed in any way they could to make sure that I remained healthy even when Adrian was out for meetings. I got along so well with the house workers. Over the short time I've stayed here, I could tell one unique thing about them, they cared for each other greatly, like a family, irrespective of their posts, and that I cherished so much. A loud rumbling of my stomach snapped me back to reality. I was starving. It was mid morning and the chefs were taking a rest from the morning meals, it was Adrian's rules following the fact that they all had their respective families too. He let them take short breaks between every work hour and returned afterwards. Yeah, such a charmer he is. They won't stop singing his praise. I had actually eaten to a pulp before Adrian left for work and also dappled on the numerous snacks and fruits that he makes me consume daily but being a pregnant

    Aria's POV.I slowly opened my eyes to the soft morning sun that found its way into my room through the window. I had a huge smile on my face but it suddenly disappeared as I realized that I was the only one on the bed, Ryan wasn't beside me anymore.Spranging up with heavy force and anger, a piece of paper fell off from under the pillow beside me and I quickly picked it up.A wide smile broke out on my face as I read through the content."Hey beauty, how was your night? Hope you enjoyed your sleep? For me it's the best I've ever had, sorry I had to leave before you woke up, Eleanor is an early bird, if I didn't get back to her earlier before she woke up, she would notice I didn't sleep in the room, I trust you to handle Jeremy about the party too, get ready for school quickly and come down, I can't wait to see the pretty face of my lover, and FYI, don't put on your panties."

I screamed repeatedly hitting the steering as we drove around the street, it wasn't Eleanor's closing time, I just needed to be out of the house that minute else I would compeletly loose it."How could she want to wear something like that for that jerk?" "Does she even know how she looked?""Like a freaking pornstar, a fucking pornstar!!! Damn it," I continued speaking to myself as I drove around.My mind couldn't erase the memory of her image, from her pretty innocent face, to her flawless thick smooth thighs, her juicy boobs and erect nipples faultlessly visible to my ogling eyes through the see through singlet, and her firm mouth watering ass perfectly encased in the tight skirt she wore. "She is mine, her body, her heart, all of her is fucking mine!!! I yelled, continuously hitting the steering."Are you okay man? A man in the car next to me shouted out to me."Fuck off!! I yelled back at him.Fuck moving on! I haven't moved on a single bit, why

He asked."Just came to grab a glass of milk, I can't seem to get a good sleep," I shrugged."You are having one already, can't sleep too?" I asked walking towards the freezer and grabbed a cold jar of yoghurt and a glass."Nah, I just needed to cool off a bit before going back to bed," he replied and I muttered an 'oh'I had hoped he would say yes, then maybe I would have believed he couldn't sleep because he was thinking of me but he had utterly proved me wrong.We both sat there, sipping our yoghurt in silence."Uhm, I should go back to sleep now, goodnight," he suddenly blurted and stood up turning around to leave."Hey Ryan, can I talk to you for a minute?"
