"Aunt Isa, when will Wesley and Isaac be able to play with us?" Asked a six-year-old, excited Carson. Easton sat watching the ten-month-old twin boys, making a mess of their breakfast.
Isabella looked at all the four children with love. "In a few months they'll be able to walk and could play with you two," she told them.
"But I could walk the moment I was born. I was born an adult," said Easton, his tone, his attitude resembled Weston so much that they always rolled their eyes when he spoke.
"What rubbish! I had to carry you on my shoulders even when you were two years old. You simply refused to walk!" Said Hudson with an eye roll.
Anna Sophia came rushing downstairs. "Are we all ready? I'll go and check up

Love Clash (A Forbidden Love Series Book) Prologue
Isabella stared out of the car window as David Gray drove her from her hometown of Los Angeles towards his house in Las Vegas. The scenic beauty around her didn't interest her in any way. The tears had dried up after her mom's funeral three days ago. At twelve, she had suddenly become an orphan with nowhere to go to, no one to call her own.Isabella's dad, Norman Harrington was a lawyer who belonged to an aristocratic British family with orthodox views. They lived in London and Isabella had never seen them or heard from them at all in her entire twelve years of life. Her mom Gloria Porter was an orphan and worked as a waitress at a posh upscale restaurant in Los Angeles. Norman Harrington met her and married her against the wishes of his family.However, their happiness was short-lived as he died due to a brain stroke when Isabella was just ten. Her mom tried hard to cope up with the loss but soon she was diagnosed with Polycystic Kidney D

"Hey, pumpkin," said Hudson, peeping into Isabella's room. She turned to look at him and his face brightened up when he saw how her lips broke into a smile at the nickname. "You seem to like your nickname, don't you?" He asked, coming inside her room and sitting on the window sill with her."Yes," said Isabella, speaking for the first time since her mother's death. Hudson looked at her with a kind smile."I'm glad you came to stay here. I was worried that mom and dad would be lonely after we left," said Hudson."Are you going away?" Asked Isabella. She liked this warm brown-eyed boy and felt very comfortable in his company as if she'd known him for a long time."Yes, in another four months, we'll go away to New York to study. Mom's family lives there. You should be knowing since your mom also used to live in New York when she was young," said Hudson. Isabella's eyes widened. She didn't know that.

"Spare me!" Exclaimed a disgusted Weston and strode away towards his room. For some odd reason, he didn't feel good seeing her tears. 'Who likes seeing fake waterworks?' He reasoned to himself as he stood near the door trying to listen to what was going on in the next room. He didn't want her to leave and just hoped that Hudson was able to change her mind.After Weston left, Hudson tried his best to calm Isabella down. "You're not going anywhere, do you understand? Don't mind Wes, he's a little immature. He'll come around. Give him a little time, pumpkin," he said, wiping her tears away. He felt bad for the young girl who was still a child and needed a loving home to grow up, not this sort of stress. It must be so difficult for her to cope up with the loss of her parents and then try to adjust amongst strangers."I don't want to impose, " said Isabella, wiping her tears away."You're not imposing at all. Mom alway

Weston strode into her room looking quite displeased as always. Isabella who was sitting at her favorite place by her window was instantly on alert. She knew instinctively that he wouldn't ever come into her room to do small talk. He was rude and would remain so till she left his house."Why are you behaving like I'm the bl**dy villain here? Do you want sympathy from my parents so badly? You have already sneaked into our house, into their hearts. What more do you want?" He growled at her."I don't know what you're talking about. You don't want me around so I'm staying away," she mumbled, feeling a bit hurt by his allegations."Of course I don't want you in this house but what was the need to put up an act at the dinner table? I don't give a sh*t if you starve yourself to death but my parents would land up in prison if you do," he hissed, angrily. Isabella felt her eyes prick with tears."I just wasn't hung

Isabella couldn't move an inch with apprehension as Weston came to a halt right in front of her. He stared at her with disbelief."You can stay here but remember that I'll never like you. You can never be a sister or family to me. You'll forever be an outsider, a temporary and unwanted houseguest in my eyes," he stated in a tone devoid of any emotions.Isabella felt hurt by his words. "Why do you hate me so much?" She asked with her voice choked and hurting.Weston looked at her, his eyes clouding with confusion. Why does he hate her so much? He himself didn't know. She made him feel extremes of everything, hatred, jealousy, possessiveness, concern, worry, everything and he had no idea why. He ignored her question. He didn't know why she made him behave this way. He didn't want her to call him bro jus

The first thing Isabella felt was his intoxicating smell which made her snuggle more into him. Strangely she didn't feel anything brother-like in him just like she felt with Hudson. The feel of his rough, tanned fingers on her hair felt so magical that she immediately calmed down, acutely aware of his muscular arms wrapped around her. She could stay like this forever!"I'm okay," she said softly into his chest when he kept holding her close.Weston was so lost in the young girl that he had lost his senses for a few minutes. Her soft body melted in his arms and he felt so good that he wanted to protect her and keep her in his arms forever. Her voice suddenly brought him to his senses and he quickly released her as if scalded. What the heck was that? He had never hugged girls before then why the f*ck did he hug this girl who was his enemy? 'To save my a*s from getting punished, why else?' reasoned Weston in his hea

Weston felt a strange sense of satisfaction seeing the tears in her eyes hearing his announcement. "Why do you need to leave home now when you're just months away from your graduation?" Asked his dad sternly."I'll study with Cody, dad. I can't concentrate here," he shrugged."Fine but if I hear one complaint against you or if you land up in any trouble, I won't save you. You'll be responsible for your own actions. Am I clear?" Said his dad in a very solemn tone. Weston nodded."Yes, dad. Don't worry. I'm just going to study with Cody, " he told them."You're letting him go, David? Won't you stop him?" Said his mom with disbelief and a feeling of helplessness. His dad shrugged."He's made up his mind, honey. Let him go," said his dad."I'll keep coming and going. Why are you guys behaving like I'm leaving forever?" He asked, looking disappointed."Okay, go

After that magical experience, both Weston and Isabella felt more relaxed, more complete in each other's company. A sense of satisfaction and belonging developed between them. It led to an amazing, out-of-the-world love-making, finding different ways to please one another.The next morning, Weston took her to The Pacific Marine Mammal Center to see marine life up close. It was a rehabilitation center for seals and sea lions that covered all 42 miles of the Orange County coastline. Isabella could touch the animals recuperating there. Afterwards, they took a self-guided Laguna Beach Walking Tour. It was their last day at Laguna and they wanted to make the best out of it. After lunch, they went to Laguna Canyon Winery for a wine tour, something they had never done before. The evening they spent cozily cuddling on the patio of their cottage watching the ocean, the stars above, and wishing that they could

As he carried her to the bed, Isabella realized that this was the life she had always craved. She was now his, completely his. The love-making this time was more of an exploration, gentler than before. This was what they had been looking forward to since last night. As they lay side by side, gasping for breath, calming their rapidly beating hearts, Isabella couldn't help but feel a tug at her heartstrings when she turned and saw him staring at her.His electric blue eyes looked incredible in the afternoon light filtering through the curtains, his lips pinker from their kisses. They were the most precious treasures to her now just like he was, completely. A surge of love filled her heart and when he rolled to his side to face her, his gaze hooked to her mouth, his fingers tracing their outline, she was lost again."I'm not getting enough of you, Isab

Before she could protest, he backed her up against the door of the en-suite and cupped her face to press his lips to hers in a hungry kiss. His body was pinned hard against hers and Isabella could feel his muscles rippling with every movement. He ran his tongue along her bottom lip and parted them expertly, gliding his tongue inside over hers. Isabella's brain was turned into mush in anticipation as she clung to him, kissing him back with equal hunger. Would he make love to her here in the shower cubicle?His mouth left hers for a brief second as he pulled the top over her head, discarding it altogether. His smoldering gaze stared hungrily at her breasts covered only in a black bikini top. Bending her neck back, he sunk his teeth into her creamy neck, leaving his mark over her. His fingers unclasped her bikini top and let it fall to the floor. He raised his hooded, hungry eyes to look at the treasure

After that overwhelming first date, Weston and Isabella kissed and cuddled in each other's arms at night."What did you do the whole day?" He asked her with curiosity.Isabella smiled, her eyes lost in the thoughts of her second story. "I started writing a sequel to Faded Dreams. It would be the story of our dreams coming true, of finding one another again," she whispered. Weston looked at her with disbelief."Really? That's wonderful," he appreciated."And what did you do?" Asked Isabella. Weston smiled at her."Missed you, worked, and then missed you more. I'm bored with this job, I want to do something more challenging, " he confessed."Then go ahe

Weston smiled at her answer, it was what he had always wanted to do. Take baby steps forward in their relationship. He quickly tied his tie around his neck while Isabella watched him do it to perfection."I'll teach you soon and then you'll be the one to do it for me, " he told her, planting a small kiss on her nose. Isabella nodded."Bye, my little girlfriend," he whispered, planting another peck on her mouth."Bye, Weston, " she said with a sigh."I'll be back in the blink of an eye," he promised, giving her a quick hug. Isabella followed him down the stairs at the same time that Hudson was emerging from his room, all ready for work."Took you long enough to tie a tie?" He teased her.

The next morning for the first time Isabella woke up to see Weston's face inches away from hers, watching her intently."Good morning, Isabella, " he whispered in a husky morning voice, dipping his head to kiss her neck. Isabella blushed to see him the first thing in the morning. She had wanted this ever since she had returned home."Good morning, Weston, " she answered, closing her eyes as a tremor ran down her body when his stubble grazed her neck. "Do you have to go to work?" She asked eagerly, not wanting to let him go. Weston chuckled."Yes, baby but I'll return early. Will you go out with me?" He asked her tenderly. The soft endearment blew her mind and she smiled happily."Yes, of course, I will. I thought you'd never ask me out!" She said

Isabella pulled his face closer and latched her lips onto his. Unable to contain himself, Weston immediately took over, his whole body tingling with a flood of heat pooling around his core. Isabella felt burnt by the touch of his heated lips on hers as his arm coiled around her waist while the other tangled into her hair, clasping her tightly to his body.The kiss turned intense, making Isabella throw her arms around his neck, clinging to him, surrendering herself completely. She was his even after all these years and this was exactly what she had always wanted, to belong to him completely. Weston's whole body was overcome with raw sentiments that had suddenly come alive and he slowly backed her against the nearest wall. His mouth was fused with hers all the while as he kissed her with an intense need that took Isabella's breath away in no time. He pressed her body up against the wall and fisti

Weston's sleepy body climbed onto her bed like every night and soon dozed off to a deep, uninterrupted slumber. Isabella knew that he had come into her room at night but she didn't disturb him knowing that he was still in his sleepy state. However, in the wee hours of the morning, she felt his arms scoop her up and place her close to himself."I love you, Isabella, " he mumbled in his sleep, his fingers touching her neck, stroking it as if searching for something. Isabella knew exactly what he was looking for. The pendant. She never took it off so when his fingers found it, he snuggled more into her and slept peacefully with a small smile on his lips. Isabella sighed when he didn't wake up. She wanted him to wake up and face her, she wanted him to kiss her, she wanted to know what was troubling him, she wanted to know why he was avoiding her. She had waited impatiently for him the whole day and whole
