MICHELLE’s POV. As soon as I enter my room; I slump on the bed and close my eyes for a moment. I am trying to expel the anger from my body. Nicholas is not even worth even a cent of my anger. How can he just show up in my life and try to take my back like I am some kind of commodity? Isn’t he afraid of being struck by lightning because of his behavior? The more I think about it, the more angry I become. I am even pissed with Enzo because even as I went to the hospital, he refused to tell me anything and kept saying he was fine. I had to leave because he had a surgery but that’s not the end of the matter, he must tell me what is actually bothering him. I am not sure for how long I have closed my eyes but when I open them, I find myself in a field full of flowers and a woman is standing far off. The moment I see her, I know she is not someone ordinary just from the aura emanating from her. Her inky long black hair is cascading down her back and her garment looks so white
ENZO’s POV. Michelle steers in her sleep and gently opens her eyes; I can’t help but smile back at the beautiful woman lying on my bed and wearing my clothes. No matter how much I gaze upon her, I can not get enough of her. I am actually glad that I discussed my feelings with her and now I feel a lot better. I can’t help but thank this woman enough. She has been an epitome of blessing ever since she came into my life and I have the moon goddess to thank for that. “Good morning beautiful” I say to her and her lips curl up. “How long have you been staring at me?” Her feminine voice reaches my ear. “Long enough to know you were having an erotic dream about me” I answer with a coy smirk on my lips, “I could see it” “Enzo!!” She beams and the color rush on her face is actually very massive, I love to see her happy and smiling. “But we will discuss about your dream later, today is an important day for us” Michelle shoots out of bed, “of course, and I can’t wait to see the
MICHELLE’s POV. After dropping the call, I let out a heavy sigh as a well dressed man walks onto the stage. This is the first time I am attending a gala and I can say this is out of this world. Right from the hall, the decor down to the light and everything is top notch. For the first day of show, Enzo really outdid himself because I can not keep my eyes to myself, the sight of everything is so beautiful to behold and not to talk of the crowd that had gathered. The guest list was filled with important men and seeing how the hall is full, it is safe to say that Enzo has made his mark in the world he exists in. I am the only one seated here right now and Maria told me Enzo specially prepared this place for me. I get to see everything happening on stage and I can’t help but feel proud of the man I married, he treats me like I am the only person on earth. My thoughts are interrupted by the man on the stage again and he is saying something which is making everyone chuckle ligh
NICHOLAS’s POV. THREE HOURS AGO. With one final look at the mirror, I pick up my phone from the table and this is when the door opens and Natalia saunters into the room looking gorgeous in her black sequin dress, one of the newest collections but no matter how much I look at her and want to admire her, I can not get the words of Michelle out of my head. I don’t even know who is lying because on one hand Natalia is pregnant and on the other hand, Michelle gets pregnant with Enzo just a few weeks after they met. The more I think about it, the more upset I become because everything should have been about me. And I know for a fact that Michelle is not lying about her pregnancy because I can actually see it. The glow, the beauty and everything in between. I noticed it the very first day I saw her but I couldn’t even decipher it completely because we no longer shared that bond, I can no longer feel anything about her. “Don’t I look good?” Natalia’s voice jolts me out of my train
ENZO’s POV. I don’t let go of her hand until we enter my dressing room before I bang the close in anger and I see her flinch. A gesture that makes me realize how angry I actually am. When she sent me that text, I decided to actually meet her only for me to be caught up for a few minutes and I saw Nicholas holding onto her. The anger that resonated within me at that time was so massive that I actually wanted to kill him and destroy everything he has. “Calm down, Enzo” Michelle tells me, “you are so angry and it is emanating from you” “The fuck I am upset ” I hiss in anger, “how dare he? I should have actually ordered Izzy to kill his sister.., how..” I am still talking when she pulls me into her embrace and envelopes me in a tight hug and immediately I feel my anger begin to reduce. I snake my hand around her waist and bury my head on her shoulder while filling my lungs with her scent. “Are you calm now?” Her voice filters into my ear, “today is a very important day and y
MICHELLE’s POV. Seeing my husband looking all dashy and too good to be true on the runway, I can't help but feel proud of him. Is there anything this man can not do? He is the epitome of grace and poise, I will forever be thankful to the moon goddess for bringing him my way. Each outfit is a fight against the other and the moment he is done, I immediately make my way to his dressing room because looking at him from that runaway, I already want to pounce on him. I want to show him how much I love and adore him, I want to show him that through my actions and not my words but what I didn’t expect is that his Junior sister will walk in on us with one of my peaks in his mouth. The moment I see Izzy saunter into the room, I immediately push Enzo off and pull my dress upwards while his own gaze darkens as he turns his attention to the intruder. “I am….I…sor…” Izzy’s voice keeps trailing off and I can totally understand why. I would have also been in that kind of situation if I am
MICHELLE’s POV. With a heavy sigh, I slump on the bed and close my eyes for a moment to relax. Tonight has been very hectic and all I want to do is just lay in bed and sleep. After I left Natalia at the packing lot, Enzo and I attended some interviews and finally the first day of the show came to an end. A few reporters still swooned around us even after everything was over and we still had to take some pictures. I have never been in front of so much people before and with the way Enzo showed he was doting on me, I should expect more of that kind of attention. After a few minutes, I push myself out of bed before getting out of my clothes. I should take a shower before Enzo finishes his call. The moment I step into the shower and the water pours down on my body, I let out a slight moan of relief, I actually need this. As the water continues to pour, my mind drifts off to what Mustapha told me. The fact that Natalia is acquainted with them troubles me a lot and more abo
MICHELLE’S POV. After a few seconds, doctor Lawrence finally looks up from his computer and his gaze rests on me, He presses forward on the chair before pushing his computer towards me. “Here” he points at the screen, “this is the lining of your womb and it’s a little weak since the tumor. It has been like that for a while now it’s nothing to be concerned about” “Is that why I had that pain yesterday?” “Hmm” he nods, “everything is fine and your babies are absolutely fine, you don’t have anything to worry about” I finally let out a sigh, thanks to the moon goddess. “I have also prescribed some new drugs for you, this is the second month of your pregnancy, you will need them” “Thank you so much doctor Lawrence” “You are welcome, make sure to take a lot of rest. You need it, you are carrying triplets inside of you, we can’t take the risk” “Of course” After a few other discussions, I pull my body out of the chair and make my way out of the office. Enzo left for
MALACHI’s POV.Walking into the room, I see my wife seated beside her sleeping father, her head on the bed beside him and seeing that she didn’t raise her head when I walk in, I know for a fact that she is sleeping. Walking gently towards her, I squat beside her before tapping her gently.“Baby”Odette stirs in her sleep and opens her eyes, a light yawn leaves her mouth.“Baby, you are back?”“Hmm” I nod, “I am back. Come, I will take you home so you can take some rest, okay?”“I don’t want to leave dad alone” she sounds adamant.“You are not leaving him okay? Kayden and Ayana are both outside. They will look after him till your mum gets back. You are pregnant, remember? You don’t need all of these stress right now”She lets out a sigh, I hate seeing her in this kind of situation. How I wish I was in her stead.“Okay? You need all the rest you can get now. I don’t want you getting sick in your condition, my love” I cup her face lightly and press a kiss against the tip of her nose, “pl
BRYER’s POV.I let out a little gasp as I push open my eyes but I am met with ultimate darkness and silence. The ground underneath me is cold and it is seeping through my skin. The last thing I remember was someone walking up to me when I was leaving the mall earlier and the rest is history.Who dared to do this to me? Who dared to capture me and put me in a position like this? Could it be Zachary? I ratted him out to the police and he is getting investigated again or it could be Odette. I mean, I harmed her father and landed him in this hospital. It wasn’t that hard to do since their cleaning lady had a gambling addiction, I was able to buy her off as soon as I talked to her but she wouldn’t have that time to have me captured right? Or was it Malachi? Did he do this?I have a lot of questions but no one to ask, not when this place looks like my nightmare. Wolves have the ability to see even in the dark but for some reason, I am unable to do that. What the heck is happening? Who was
ODETTE’s POV.Despite being upset with him, I can’t go against him and that’s why I sat my ass on the bed when he told me to.I can think clearly now, I went a bit overboard at the hospital but if I didn’t meet him, Bryer wouldn’t have come into our lives so my anger was a bit justified. I am going to find her and I am going to tear her into a million pieces, scatter her remains all over the world and make sure she regrets it for the rest of her life.The rain is still falling heavily and I wouldn’t be able to go back to the hospital anytime soon so I decided to call my mum and from the tone of her voice, nothing has happened yet.“The doctors are going to check him for the drugs” she says, “you shouldn’t worry too much, my darling”I sniff back a tear, this hurts more than anything I can even think of, “I am sorry mum” I tell her, “dad is in this condition because of me”“It is not because of you, my baby. Don’t worry, your father will be fine. You should make up with your husband, y
MALACHI’s POV.She cried, she had tears in her eyes and it was because of me and she was fucking right. Bryer came into her life because of me. It is my fault that Mr Philips is in this condition, it is my fault that my wife cried and even slapped me. For the first time since we got married, I didn’t go after her. Not because I am upset but because I know she needs some space away from me.“Fuck!!” I mutter under my breath taking a few steps back from the elevator door. My world has come to a fucking standstill. We were happy a few hours ago so what the hell is this?“What’s going on man?” Kayden asks, “what’s happening?”“We need to get the doctor now,” I tell him before turning to my mother in law. She looks so pale and my heart breaks into a million pieces again. It is my fault that everything has happened, I caused this.“Mum…” my voice trails off, I don’t even know what to say to her at this point. She could hate me too, I caused her husband to be here in the first place.“You sh
ODETTE’s POV. Right from Costa Rica down till when the plane touched down in New York, I didn’t say a word and I didn’t call any of my family members. I can’t lie, I was scared. I was scared of what they would say, I was scared that something had happened to my father and I didn’t want to hear it. I was so anxious that I wished we could reach sooner. One of Malachi’s cars was already waiting when the plane landed and in no time, we were on our way to the city hospital. That man, he loves me like a real daughter and never made me feel the absence of a real father. I don’t even know any other father aside from him. How can he come down with a heart attack? Father is not one to neglect his health so how is that even possible? I close my eyes and sniff back a tear, I feel like I am about to lose my fucking mind, I am about to go crazy. Malachi wraps his hand around my waist and pulls me closer and I let him. I rest my head on his shoulder and allow myself to feel whatever I need
MALACHI’s POV.Seeing my wife in that position gives me one of the biggest hardons ever but I don’t want to tire her out again so I only help her shower and put her to bed. She looked so beautiful moaning like that a while back, I wouldn’t be able to keep that image of her out of my head even if I tried.“Are you tired?” I ask as I cover her with the blanket.“Well, can’t say I am not” her face breaks into a small smile, “but I loved that, it was…adventurous, you could say that”I lean forward and press a kiss on her forehead, “now take some rest okay? I have some work to finish in the living room”“Don’t be long, okay?”“Of course princess”After another kiss, I finally make my way out of the room, switching off the light on my way out. I still have a hard on and I doubt it will reduce soon. The moon goddess knows how much I want her but I can’t be so selfish to do that to her after making her fuck herself and I watched.My lips tilt slightly, that image is going to be in my head fo
ODETTE’s POV.Swimming more laps, I finally pull my wet body out of the water as my face breaks into a smile. Malachi is seated at the foot of the pool, his eyes on me with a glass of red wine in hand. Ever since I got pregnant, he has refused to taste any kind of alcohol, he said he didn’t want his child to think his father is an alcoholic.“Aren’t you tired?” He asks me, his voice a mixture of warmth and love.“How about you swim with me?” I inquire with a pout, “the water is nice babe, the moon is beautiful. What more do you want? The night is perfect”“With you everything is perfect, my love” he tells me, a wink following suit, “you know that, don’t you?”My cheeks flush and my smile widens, this man knows how to make me smile without making an effort.“Come and swim with me, Malachi”“I am supposed to be keeping an eye on you, babe”“Come here, Mr man” I raise an eyebrow at him, “or I going to be mad at you”He lets out a sigh before chugging down his entire glass.Before I can s
BRYER’s POV.From afar, I see him taking a sip of his coffee. I know he wouldn’t want to see me now but if I want to get everything back, I need to get his trust back.I just need the right amount of words and pretense.Throwing the half cigarette on the floor, I squash it with my leg before making my way into the café. I have to do this now, I need to make a fucking move. I can’t just sit idle waiting for something to happen.“Mason!” I call out his name gently and he immediately springs up from the chair, anger written on his face.“What are you doing here, Bryer?”I glance at the lady beside him, the one from the salon. I didn’t know two of them were acquaintances, I could have gotten some information for free from her.“Miss Bryer” her face breaks into a small smile.“I didn’t know you knew him” I tell her, flashing her a smile, “Boyfriend?”“It is none of your business” Mason snaps before she can even answer me, “what do you want, Bryer?”I let out a sigh, he has his guards up mo
MALACHI’s POV.“Oh my world!!” Odette screams as soon as I push open the door to the cottage. Imagine the look of surprise and awe on her face when the plane touched down Costa Rica. She has been beaming smiles since then. A few days ago when we had that subway experience, she made mention of the fact that she would like to live normally and I decided to make that happen. Bring her to a place where no one would care about us and just be normal for a few days.I purchased this cottage two days ago and seeing everything, I am in love with it already. The three bedroom cottage which is a little away from the town, looks like something out of a fairytale with a beautiful lake behind and a garden full of beautiful flowers by the side. There is also a swimming pool in front of it, adding an extra layer of magnificence to the house. The former owner sure took care of it because it looks much more amazing than the photos I saw.“How did you even come across this babe?” Odette asks as we cont
