NICHOLAS’s POV. A light groan leaves my lips as I close the document I am reading and I press my back against the chair. It’s been like two weeks since the divorce saga and all I can say is Natalia is settling in well but the workload is a bit too much. When Michelle was around, she helped me take care of the pack house while I focused on work and now because of Natalia's pregnancy, I told her not to work and always rest. I scoff; am I actually thinking about Michelle right now? She is part of my past and I am going to make sure she remains there. My thoughts are cut off when the door opens and Natalia saunters into the study dressed to kill as usual. She never missed a chance to impress me with her perfect body and she has her hair pulled up in the hairstyle that I love the most. “You are still working?” She asks as she walks up to me, “it’s already late” “I just have to finish up with these documents” I tell her, “maybe in like thirty minutes I will be done” “Hmmm
ENZO’s POV. Tonight has been the most overwhelming night of my life and I need a lot of time to process what has happened but right now I am seated in my study with Melisa sitting in front of me. I had helped Michelle go to bed after we got back and we both decided to keep everything that happened a secret until we are able to figure out everything that’s going on. She had to also rest early because she is supposed to go to the hospital in the morning and that’s why I put her to bed early. I just want to finish with Melisa and crawl into bed beside her. With this at the back of my head, I press my back against the chair and turn my attention to the deranged Melisa. “Have the healer checked your wounds?” I ask her. “Yes master, she gave me some herbs to take” “Tell me, what did Diego do to you?” “He didn’t do anything to us at first, master,” Melisa begins to talk, “he kept us in separate rooms until two days ago when he asked us to tell him your schedule and how yo
MICHELLE’s POV. It was about 12 midnight when a knock resonated on the door and I pulled my eyes open. I was expecting to see Enzo curled up beside me but rather his sister is the one standing in front of my door with a huge grin on his face. “Izzy?” “Hmm, Enzo said to make sure you take your drugs. I guess I am going to be doing the nanny duty now” “Don’t mind him, I already have my alarm set for that” I tell her, “where is he though?” “He went out to Santa Monica, he will be back soon” At the mention of Santa Monica my forehead creases into a frown, he didn’t tell me he was going to Santa Monica. “You should take your drugs though” After she is done, Izzy turns around and walks towards the elevator while I make my way back into the room again It is clearly after midnight and he is in Santa Monica? Slumping back on the bed, I pick up my phone and dial his number but it didn’t even connect. What the hell is he doing? I try to connect with him but i can not, i
MICHELLE’s POV. Sitting in front of the doctor, my heart continues to beat fast against my rib cage. How I wish Enzo was here with me but he has a meeting that he can not miss but he promised to be here soon. With him beside me, I will surely feel better because right now; my whole being is in turmoil. The old man clears his throat before raising his head to meet my gaze. “Miss Michelle” he presses forward against the chair and drops the document on the table, “I have gone through your file” “What did you find?” Lawrence asks him. “It is just as you have said, we can not delay the surgery anymore, you have less than a week to live. The tumor has covered every part of your womb” My heart drops to my feet as his words filter into my ear. This is not the kind of news I was expecting, I thought a miracle was going to happen but I guess I am only a pawn in the hands of the moon goddess. “So I am going to die?” “It is a very slim chance, ma’am” the old doctor says, “we
ENZO’s POV. Sitting in front of the sea of eyes before me, my mind is not even on the meeting going on right now. Michelle went into surgery four hours ago and how I want to be there for her but I am stuck in this meeting which she made me promise to attend. Looking back at my watch, I still have an hour before everyone is done with their pitch and I am not sure how long I can take it anymore. “Can you not go a little faster?” My voice resonates in the entire room and the man on the podium bows a little. “Yes sir” he answers and I roll my eyes at him as my thoughts go back to Michelle. I want to be beside her and let her know that everything will be fine. My thoughts are interrupted when the mobile in front of me begins to ring and when I see the caller ID, my heart skips a beat. Michelle is surely putting me on my toes. I pick up the phone and press it against my ear. “Tell me” “There is trouble, Enzo” Lawrence says from the other end and I immediately jump out of
ENZO’s POV. TWO DAYS LATER. I groan lightly as I push my body out of the chair, my head is throbbing so badly and I just need to rest it for a while but how can I? It has been two days already and Michelle is yet to wake up. Lawrence has told me it would take some time for her to wake up but I am getting apprehensive about it and most especially because she is pregnant, she can’t be out for too long. “You need to take some rest or you will break down yourself” my wolf advises but I completely ignore it and pick up my phone before dialing a number. “Send all the files to my email, I will check them out today” “Okay sir” my assistant answers from the other end, “one of the models has been involved in an accident sir, I have been calling you but you didn’t answer. She has been rushed to the hospital” I let out a heavy sigh, the show is in a week’s time and a model is involved in an accident? “How bad is the accident?” “I am not sure she will be able to perform sir”
MICHELLE’s POV. “I can walk by myself” I tell Enzo two days later as soon as the car comes to a halt in front of the mansion but he will hear nothing of it. He alights from the car before gathering me up in his arms and making his way into the house. Ever since I woke up two days ago, Enzo has not allowed me to even do anything, he was up and about for me and I couldn't be more thankful. I am even more thankful for the fact that his blood was all the remedy I needed, the fact that he saved me and gave me a new leash on life. If I could ask for one thing from the moon goddess, it would be to keep Enzo happy for the rest of his life because he has shown me what Nicholas couldn’t in three years. When I was in coma, I kept hearing his voice everyday and I wanted to wake up and tell him how grateful I am to have him in my life. I was scared that I wouldn’t be able to open my eyes again but when I did and I saw him in front of me, I was overly excited and happy and now being i
MICHELLE’s POV. The scent of something yummy filters into my nostrils and I slowly open my eyes to see Enzo dropping a tray of breakfast on the bedside table. My face breaks into a smile as soon as I see him, he is my morning dose of happiness. He is dressed in a gray suit and his hair is pulled back in a neat bun, I genuinely can not take my eyes off of him. How can one look so good even in the morning? “Good morning princess” he says and presses a kiss on my lips. “I haven’t even brushed yet” I can’t help but whine and he scoffs. “I know that and I don’t care” he straightens up and pats my hair lightly, “have some breakfast and have your medication. They will arrive soon and you can use them as you please. I have an important meeting this morning which I can not miss” “Do not worry about me, Enzo” I tell him, “I will be fine” “Sure about that?” “Hmmm” I nod, “even if I am not fine, you will be the first person to know that” “Of course” he flashes me a smile, “M
