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. 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. 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 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. 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. 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
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. 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
