It had been a week since Tilda returned from her grandmother's wedding. She lay lazily on the couch overlooking the balcony at the kingdom. So far life was perfect, her aunt's somehow got engaged in their different love stories trying to make a life for themselves. Elise had accepted the fact that Logan wasn't entirely responsible for her death those years ago. He was a victim of circumstances, but she still couldn't forget the fact that she had lost her child in the ordeal.Seeing the bright smiles on his face every moment Logan played with his kids made her feel a tinge of sadness, a feeling she never got to enjoy.Elise had realised that even though she forgave him, she could not see him that happy every single day, she had to detach herself from them for her to move on. Her career picked up having received numerous deal abroad. It would be best if she moved away and found a life for herself. That was exactly what she did before she moved to a different country.Tilda sighed thinki
Elise has been living with grandmother and her family for seventeen years now. From the stories that grandmother had told her, she learnt that grandmother adopted her after she found a baby wrapped warmly and placed at her door step late one afternoon. Since she was all alone at that time and busy at the backyard, Caren never saw the people who brought her there. Caren had reported the incident to the police but was advised to take care of the little baby till her parents came for her. Years went by but no one went to claim her, grandmother Caren decided to adopt her. Life was difficult for her at the moment since her husband died recently, she had to take care of her two teenage sons and a daughter. It wasn't very easy having an addition to the family. Elise however was a very beautiful and lively child with blue eyes that mesmerized everyone. She brought a lot of joy to the family and blended easily with them. Elise was an obedient child and was ready to help whenever someone w
Logan made the decision to fight for the throne the moment he laid eyes on the captivating beauty there was no way to turn back. He once thought of settlingdown away from their world and live quietly with the humans instead of battling it out and losing his life in the process. But now he had found his source of inspiration, everyone better watch out for him. He has been the devil himself, making sure to get whatever he sets his eyes on, the lady was one of them.She had to become his.‘ Nate, I need your assistance now, I need to fight for the throne." Logan said after the long silence since they got into the car."How do you presume l help you" Nate replied seemingly uninterested in the conversation.‘You know what I mean Nate, killing my brothers will be a difficult task, I've to plan carefully, and I’ve to find something that will finish the job in the shortest time possible. So that I can focus my attention on wooing that lady" Logan replied.‘I really don’t think that I am the
The day had finally arrived, when her fate in this world would be decided. Elise had arrived early for her interview, but the interview started immediately at 2 pm, since there weren't many called for the interview, it took just two hours. They had to wait for another hour to receive the results. Elise silently made a prayer to God, she had toget this.After what seemed like an eternity, Elise and the lady who sneered at her earlier, she got to know her name Ella were called inside. They had been chosen to be the next models since they fit perfectly for the theme of their collection. Elise was so elated that immediately she signed the contract and after a briefing, she rushed home to deliver the good news.She was on her way to catch the evening bus when she was stopped by a guy dressed in all black." Sorry miss for the disturbance, but our boss needs tospeak to you" the guy said pointing to the car parked justbeside the road. Elise glanced the same direction and saw through the
Elise went back to sleep and woke up late in the day when the morning chores were all done. Since she couldn't go for the morning run as the scorching sun was already up, she decided to take a shower and prepare for the day. She had to carefully plan on how to use her savings when out later to shop for her clothes. When done Elise headed out of her room but was met by Charity who pushed her back to her room.Elise was left wondering what could have happened since her aunt seemed to be in such a foul mood." Who do you think you are to sleep up to this hour? Just because you found a job now you think you are better than everyone else. Who do you think will carry out your chores for you? Grandma has been putting up with this stupidity but I won't do that any longer, you are a grown up and should be responsible enough, instead of letting grandmother do all the things for you, you should be ashamed of yourself." Charity said fuming with anger.Elise was left tongue tied, even though she k
It was late in the evening when Elise and the twins got back home. Grandmother was seated lazily on the bench at the back yard watching the beautiful sunset. She marvelled at the wonderful life that God had gifted her even after the death of her husband. She had taken good care of their children making sure that all of them got educated, it was now an individual's decision to find a job and support themselves. She had really tried her best, looking back at the situation she had been left in.Eva and Adam quickly rushed to grandmother excitedly. They had brought her back to the present with their endless shouting describing their experience back at aunt Jennifer place. Their uncle Jeremy had been away and only returned the moment they prepared to leave, but since they got a chance to see that baby and hold him, they could not hide their excitement.The two happily narrated their encounter to grandmother as they laughed heartily. Elise felt herself getting emotional as she knew she woul
The bus arrived few minutes later and Elise boarded it immediately. She was lost in her own world as she stared out of the window. She really had no idea whether she would find a place to stay but just went blindly, hoping that by the end of the day she would have worked something out.At the outskirts of the town Elise decided to alight from the bus, she was sure that the amount she had could not let her get any room within the city, she had to save as much as she could since it would be a long time timm she be able to get an apartment. She carried her suitcase as she moved from one rentalhouset o another in search of a room she could afford, but all of them seemed really expensive. The cheapest price was one hundred and fifty dollars which she couldn't afford at that time if she wanted to push through the month with the little money she had.It was already 1 am but she had yet to find a room, Elise felt so exhausted and went to a nearby shade to have a little rest. The guy who had
Elise had slept through the rest of the morning and got up early in the afternoon. She had been woken up by the pangs of hunger that wouldn't let her get any more peaceful sleep, it was also a blessing in disguise as she had to prepare herself for thenext day. She made her way to the kitchen, she definitely knewthat she wouldn't find anything there but decided to tryout her luck. Opening the refrigerator, she was shocked to find it fully stocked with fresh vegetablesand ingredients. It was like they had just been brought in . Elise was left wondering whether someone who had traveled abroad would have that pile of food.Elise however decided not to think so much about it and prepared herself the easiest meal at the time, spaghetti and sausages that were easily available.She felt no need of heading back to the dining table and decided to enjoy her meal within the kitchen. It tasted much better than she had anticipated. Back at home since every dish prepared included alot of people d
