ENZO’s POV. I push open the door and saunter into the room. Michelle is standing by the window and she doesn’t even bother to turn to me even as I walk up to her. Our first couple fight is kind of cute but this is not the time to think about it or even dwell on that. She is still pissed with me and I have to do everything to pacify her. “Hey kitten” I snake my hand around her waist, “how do you feel now?” “I am good” she answers blandly, her eyes still on the open window” “Are you still mad at me?” “No” “Common baby, talk to me” I turn her around and she faces me, “I am sorry okay?” “Tell me everything Enzo” Michelle demands, “tell me what is really going on? How exactly are you linked to the Zu clan? I can understand my own, Natalia is a bitch but you? How? What’s really going on? How did you get to know them and that witch, what was she saying? I let out a heavy sigh as I snake my hand around her waist, “I have a lot do dark side that I don’t want you to know a
MICHELLE’s POV. The next day Enzo and I cuddle all morning, we have breakfast in bed and watch a movie. He tells me he is not going to the office and he will take care of me for the whole day. A gesture that makes me so happy that I just want to stay in his arms forever. After lunch, I opted to take a nap and by the time I wake I up, it was already a few minutes past four. I must have slept in because as soon as my eyes open, I catch a glimpse of Enzo pressing a kiss on my forehead and my lips curl into a small smile. This man always knows how to make me feel better and I am always grateful to him. “Good evening babe” his husky voice filters into my ear. “Good evening ” I reply as I pull my body to a sitting position, my forehead creases into a slight frown when I see him all dressed up. “Are you going somewhere?” “Hmm” Enzo nods, “I have to go to the office for an impromptu meeting but I will be back soon. You don’t have to worry, I won’t take long, I will be home b
NICHOLAS’s POV. Two hours ago. I drop my phone on the table before massaging the space between my brows. Earlier today, Enzo had his people call me to release Natalia to him but I refused. She was my business and I am going to make her pay for what she has done. As long as I have her under my control, she will not be able to hurt herself and Michelle will not get hurt in the process. Pressing back against the chair, my phone screen lights up and when I see the content of the message, my heart skips a beat. I have actually forgotten that today is her birthday. Michelle used to be so excited about her birthdays and now I am wondering how she is going to react to it this year. For the past three years, we have celebrated her birthday in the most lavish way possible but now.. Picking up my phone, I stare back at her picture for a while as a small smile appears on my face. She should have been here with me now but I was a fool and I let her go, I was blinde
ENZO’s POV. Seeing how happy she looks; I am glad I came up with the idea of making her birthday a memorable one. She didn’t tell me about it and I understood why, she was not sure how it was going to be. I heard it all from her thoughts and found the date on her ID. Standing beside this phenomenal woman as the reporters click our pictures, I can not help but feel more confident and fulfilled. “Are you ready for your second gift?” I whisper into her ear as I snake my hand around her waist and wave to the reporters. “You have given me enough gifts already baby” Michele answers, the smile on her lips widening with each word, “I really do not want more” “Are you sure?” “Hmmm” After a few seconds, Maria walks up to me and whispers something into my ear and I nod before turning to the sea of eyes before us. “I am afraid you have to excuse us, I have something to show my wife but for the meantime, you can come with us into the hall, I have an announcement to make” G
MICHELLE’s POV. As soon as we enter the room, I push Enzo against the wall before hurriedly claiming his lips. This is the only way I can show this man how much I love and adore him. I can not give him material things because he has that in abundance but the love I have for him is such that he will never find anywhere else. After kissing him until my heart content, I pull away from him but my hands still snaked his wait and our face only an inch apart. “Thank you for tonight baby” I tell him, “thank you for making my birthday the most memorable one and i promise I will never forget it. “You don’t need to tell me thank you baby” he tells me, “you deserve all that and more and what more, I am craving you right now” he pulls me closer and press a kiss on my bare shoulder, “I want you baby” he whispers over my hair, “and I unable to control myself anymore” He doesn’t wait for me to say anything before crashing his lips on mine and his hands begin to find the zipper of my
ENZO’s POV. FOUR HOURS AGO. It seems Nicholas was waiting for me because the moment the car comes to a halt in front of his house, I see him sitting on one of the Cane chairs with a glass of wine twirling in his hand and he has that annoying smirk on his face. “You came?” His voice resonates in my ear. “You know why I am here, Nicholas” I tell him, “hand her over, i do not have time for your nonsense” “I only promised to hand her over to Michelle, I never agreed to let you take her back to Los Angeles with you. I have no business with you, Enzo so you can leave” “Michelle was in pain” i rake my fingers through my hair, “and right now I only want to be by her side so you better let me have her” “The situation is under control, Enzo” Nicholas tells me again as he pulls his body to a standing position, “she was trying to harm herself with the chains but I was fast enough to get to her” “I don’t need your explanations now, Nick” i grit in anger, “just give her to me” “
MICHELLE’s POV. My eyes immediately water as soon as I set my eyes on the light blue dress in front of me. The ethereal beauty emanating from it is one to die for. This is the most gorgeous dress I have seen in my life. I can’t help but run my hands through the delicate fabric as my eyes travel around it. I can not even begin to describe the beauty and the extravagance of this dress in front of me. Clearly It is something out of this world and something no one would be able to recreate again. “You like it?” Maria, who is standing beside me, asks. “Like? I nod my head in the negative, “This is the most beautiful dress I have seen in my life, maria” I tell her, “this is heaven, I mean Enzo has brought heaven right to me because this looks amazing” “The boss spent days making this dress ma’am” she tells me, “he personally handpicked the materials and every stitch you see on it, every embroidery embedded on it are all done by hand, by the boss himself and every line you see
ENZO’s POV. “Done” Izzy says as she helps me fix my tie, “you look so good, brother” “Thank you” I flash her a smile. “How I wish mum and dad could see you now, they would be so proud of you” “I am sure they are watching us right now” I tell her as I gently pat her hair, “I am sure of that” “Hmmm” I see tears well up in Izzy’s eyes and my heart breaks into a thousand pieces. I know the reason why those tears are in her eyes, she has been asking since yesterday and I finally told her. She was clearly my only blood on earth now and it was important that I did. At least I know she is now prepared for what is to come. “Enzo?” She calls out my name gently again as she slowly grabs a hold of my hand. “Yes” I turn my head towards her, “wanna tell me something” “Must you do this?” Izzy asks, “we can find another way, Michelle will be heartbroken if anything goes wrong. She will never forgive us and… “I am not planning on dying, Izzy” I laugh gently, “but even if I do, sh
MICHELLE’s POV. As I stand looking at the mirror, his hand snakes around my waist and my lips curl into a smile. This man can not keep his hands to himself and I totally understand why. Ever since the incident, Enzo has become more loving and more protective of me and the babies and I can’t help but be thankful to him. Nicholas was buried a month ago and the handing over has already been done. Lucy couldn’t bear what happened to her brother and left to unwind and believe me when I say I totally understand her. Nicholas died a painful death and a part of me has not come to terms with it yet. “What are you thinking about, baby?” His voice filters into my ear and I smile at him. “Shouldn't you be getting ready?” I ask Enzo, “it is our ceremony today and you are being naughty?” “I am not” he blurts, “I was missing you and decided to come and see you. You know I have to be mentally prepared and you my love” he pulls me closer into his embrace, “are my p
AUTHOR’s POV. “You know where to meet me if you are ready to save your daughter, I sent you an address” Maria said from the other end and the call went off immediately leaving Enzo and Michelle fuming in anger. The Michelle we all know can take anything but kidnapping her daughter is where Maria draws the line and that is something she will not forgive. “We have to save baby Odette, Enzo” she tells her husband, “and i swear I am going to make that Maria pay for daring to even touch my baby” “Aunt” Enzo turns to her, “please take care of kayden and Jayden, we have to meet with Maria and save Odette” “You don’t have to worry Enzo” aunt Loretta says, “I will be very vigilant here” “We need to go now” Michelle grabs a hold of Enzo’s hand, “we don’t have enough time” “I will Inform Izzy too” aunt Loretta says again. Not wasting any more time, Enzo leads Michelle towards the car pack and in no time, his black maybach zooms out of the premises at a very hi
MICHELLE’s POV. Looking at my little bundles of joy as the three of them are sleeping peacefully in their cradle, I can’t help but tear up and be thankful to the moon goddess for the gift of them. They look so adorable that no matter how I look at them, I can't get enough of them to say the least. My thoughts are interrupted when the door opens and Enzo saunters in and his face breaks into a smile. “Hey baby” he walks up to me and presses a kiss on my lips, “won’t your back hurt from staring at them for such a long time?” “I just can’t get enough of them babe” I tell him, “I just want to keep looking at them and remain thankful for the gift of them” “You have all the time in the world to admire them babe, now I have to tell you something” I turn my attention away from my babies and turn to Enzo. No matter how much I love my babies, Enzo is also a big part of my life and he is my number one priority. “Tell me babe” “Nicholas is here” At the mention of Nicholas, my
ENZO’s POV. Four months later. “Congratulations” Lawrence says as he walks up to me, “your wife has given birth to healthy babies” I sniff back the tears that had welled in my eyes earlier and my lips curls into a huge smile thinking about the pain she was in seven hours ago. This has been four months after the Maria incident and I have not seen or heard anything from her. Maybe she realized that having me was something her powers couldn’t get her and decided to return to her abode and Nicholas? He still is in my moonstone dungeon and he will never see the light of day as long as it doesn't cause any more damage, I will leave him to die slowly. Everything has been going perfectly and I want it to remain that way. The love, my wife and my life, I want everything to continue being the best it can be for us and our new gremlins. “Enzo!!” Lawrence calls out to me again and I jolt out of my train of thoughts, “won’t you come in to see your wife and your babies?” My heart s
MICHELLE’s POV Ten minutes ago. “Dang it” i hiss in anger as the blood continues to trickle down my pinky finger. Out of anger, I have hurt myself all because of that fraud, Maria. Closing my mouth over my finger, I feel my wound close up and I can't help but roll my eyes. Just as I make to leave the bathroom, my eyes come across the mirror and I see the woman from earlier. The same one who told me how much Enzo loves me, now I know why she felt familiar. How couldn’t I have known who she was? “I knew you felt familiar” I tell the figure in the mirror and she nods. “You were so invested in your husband that you couldn’t recognize me” “My apologies goddess selene” I bow to her slightly, “I didn’t know you came to see me personally” “Of course dear, you won’t bother about me when Enzo is always beside you to protect you” she tells me, “but I must warn you dear, you have to make haste and put everything in place. The one who is the enemy is a much bigg
ENZO’s POV. A huge slap connects with Maria’s face as Michelle grits her teeth in anger. She doesn’t even bother to collect the antidote from the lady at the door before slapping her hard across the face and I see how Maria’s gaze drops immediately and for a moment I can feel anger emanating from her. “How dare you, Maria?” Michelle half yells, “how dare you try to seduce my husband” “What exactly do you mean ma?” Maria asks back as a look of confusion flashes through hee face, “I can understand if I did something wrong and you have slapped me for it ma, what exactly did I do? “Are you trying to act dumb with me right now?” Michelle half yells, “you don’t know what you did?” “You don’t have to shout babe” I tell her from where I am standing, “remember you are pregnant” Maria looks at me for a while before returning her attention to the woman in front of her. “I left everything I was doing and had to rush to the airport, rush through all the processes so I could get to
MICHELLE’s POV. I actually didn’t mean to lash out like that but I hated the way they were ogling at Enzo even when they knew he was married. How can humans be so shameless? Thinking about it, I can’t help but feel more angry. How can they do that? Is it because I look pregnant now? Maybe I look to fat and they think I am ugly. I slowly pull away from Enzo and continue to stare back at him, my gaze darkening with each passing minute. “Enzo Phillips” I call out to him as I fold my hands across my chest, “did you perhaps bring me here so other ladies can ogle at how handsome you are?” “Of course not babe” Enzo responds as his lips curl into a smile, “don’t allow what those ladies say get to you okay?” “Do I look fat?” I ask him again. “Of course not” he answers again, “you don’t look fat, you look like the same Michelle that fainted beside my car a few months ago” “Liar!!” I blurt in anger while rolling my eyes, “you are clearly the center of attention now, why don’
ENZO’s POV. I can’t take my eyes off of the woman seated in front of the mirror as she puts the final touches to her hair and makeup. Lawrence has already come and gone and he assured us that everything is fine which made me happy. I was actually worried that I must have been too rough with her last night. She is putting on a white flowery dress and her hair is pulled back in a neat ponytail while the red color on her lips makes me gulp at intervals. She looks so good and I can not get enough of her or anything that concerns her. I just want to pull her into bed and cuddle all morning but I know this lady will not let me do that. She has already asked for a camera this morning and i know what she has planned, now i just have to be a doting husband to this wife of mine. “Why do you keep staring at me?” She asks as she clips her earring on. “Why?” I start walking towards her, “can’t I look at my wife again?” “That’s a look that’s filled with lust, Enzo” Michelle rolls her
MICHELLE’s POV. As soon as Enzo’s mouth comes in contact with my breast, my whole body shakes In his embrace and I just want him. I want him in a way that I have never wanted him before. This is the man I love and I want to be one with for all eternity. My back arches as Enzo’s hand slowly glides down my body and the moment he touches my folds, my heart skips a beat. “Hmmm, so wet!!” His deep husky voice penetrates my ear and my whole body shakes. “Please Enzo, don’t make me beg” I whisper into his mouth and make to touch him but he grabs a hold of my two hands over my head. “I want to touch you, Enzo” “Shhhh” he shushes me while staring deep into my eyes, his finger gently stroking my folds and I find my legs shaking because of what he is doing to me. “Ughhh!!ll” Enzo groans softly, “you are so wet, kitten” he whispers into my ear again, “I bet I will be able to thrust into you faster and deeper with the way your juice is pouring down my finger” “Please….” “Shhh
