Dominic's POVI was searching for her day and night and almost dug her whole city to find her. After searching for her for three days, I concluded that she is not hiding in her own city. Although I spread my men around, they were unable to locate her, so I decided to go out on my own and search for my little flower. I was walking through a market when I noticed the back of a boy who looked exactly like Amaira's brother. I ran to him and turned him around but he was someone else, but the incident clicked something in my head and I got an idea as how I am going to reach out to my little flower. I am sure that the only source through which I could reach to her is her brother. I went to the university where he is a student. Because my father founded the University, it was easy for me to obtain all of the information that I required. No one even questioned me as to why I require all this information. Once I had the list of students, I went through the boys in his class and looked for i
Amaira's POVThe bird's chirping stirred me in my sleep. When my eyes opened, my palm briefly closed. The sun rays from the window made it difficult for me to open my eyes properly yet I adjusted to the sunlight blinking multiple times. I sat up as soon as my vision became clear. I was lying in the same bed where I had spent the worst night of my life.There was no need to exert pressure on my brain to rewind what happened before I lost consciousness because the incident was constantly replaying in the back of my mind and because of that my heart was still throbbing in my chest. The only thought that came to my mind was that what's my fault in all this? That I am poor or that he is more powerful? Just because of his obsession he forced me to spend a night with him. And now when I have got pregnant, he is forcing me to stay with him. In all this where is my will? Where is my existence? He doesn't care what I want or how I am feeling. All he cares about is himself only. How would I
Amaira's POVMr. Kingston agreed to let me meet my family in exchange for accompanying him to his family function. He stated that he is doing this because he cannot trust me alone with his child and that he wants his child at all costs and that too fit and fine. After I had breakfast, he let me meet my family. They were concerned about me and I assured them that I was fine and that he would not harm me as long as I was carrying his child. He is more concerned with his baby than with anything else.Mr. Kingston has promised to look after my mother and allow my brother to continue his education as long as I behave, and I know what behave means in his language.To follow his orders! That will be seen. I need to find a way to keep him from taking control of my life while also keeping my family safe.Throughout the flight to his house, he was preoccupied with his laptop, while my gaze alternated between him and the interior of his jet. Many times it appeared that he was also staring at me
Amaira's POVI awoke and stretched my body to its limit. It was one of the best night's sleep I had ever had. When I opened my eyes, I realized I was in Mr. Kingston's parental home.My head turned to my left to look for him, but he was not there, and the lack of breeze on the bedsheets indicates that he didn't sleep beside me. That means he was not with me. I rose from my bed and blinked several times to clear my vision. Where is he? Last night, he forced me to sleep by telling me that rest is very important for the baby, and before that, he forced me to eat dinner in the jet because he couldn't risk waiting for the plane to land, for us to reach his palace and for me to eat so late. I know he is looking after me because he is worried about the baby, I am carrying in my womb. When I heard the clicking sound of the door, my attention was drawn to it. Mr. Kingston emerged from the bathroom soon after, wearing only a towel wrapped around his torso and water dripping down his athlet
Amaira's POVThe servants were bustling around the mahogany breakfast table, which had been blessed with every kind of feast I could ever think of, and despite this, Ava was eating only fruits. I am not sure what the point of making so many dishes is when you are going to have only fruits?The thought that bubbled up in my head was that 'She must be on a diet!'My gaze shifted between the food and my empty plate, unable to decide which dish to select first. One of the servants was serving Dominic his breakfast, while another stood beside me, waiting for me to tell him which delicacy I wanted first."Amaira, why aren't you having anything?" Lady Catherine inquired, her eyes darting between me and my empty plate.She is very caring and makes me think of my mother. I have not talked to my family yet because I am in a hurry."Uh, uh!"I couldn't think of anything to say. What should I tell her about my confusion between the dishes and the fact that I don't even know the names of half of t
Amaira's POVI just hope everything is fine and he doesn't unleash his anger on me! I entered the room, taking a deep breath, to find him punching the wall in anger, his punches were so powerful that it appeared he wanted to dig holes in it.Oh, the poor wall!I remained there, closing the door behind me, not wanting his family to know that I was not assisting him. With closed doors, they won't come to know what is happening within these four walls. Because I am his girlfriend in their view, so it is quite natural to be concerned about him.I remained frozen in position until I saw no blood pouring down his knuckles. He was pounding the wall without even taking a breath. Why is he torturing and hurting himself so badly? His father hasn't said something so heinous that it has changed him? So, why?When I saw his bloodstains on the wall, I swallowed hard and my heart melted.Shall I go to him? What if he pushed me away? What if he gets even more enraged after seeing my face? What if
Amaira's POVTwo days passed in a haze, and I didn't even come to know how the time passed at this palace. Dominic's mother and sister are extremely caring and loving. They treat me as if I were a member of their own family. I am not feeling left out among them, they always make sure that I am feeling included. Dominic is preoccupied with his preparations from the day he has come here. He wants his sister's wedding to go off without a hitch. He is behaving quite differently here. Since we have arrived here, he has not touched me or tried anything except that hug. Along with this, he is trying his best to neglect his father.He wanted to make sure the staff was not wasting their time. I once overheard servants remarking to one another about how disrespectful he is. But it was not new to me because I had heard the same thing about him at work as well. Not only heard but have seen that with my eyes also. The entire palace was being cleaned, and he was making sure that there was no dust
Amaira's POVWe are lying in the middle of the palace and anyone could see us in this situation still he doesn't have any shame?As his lips were about to touch mine we heard someone clearing his throat, and I threw my head to the opposite side. This reawakened him, and he quickly sat up, breaking the chain of the flower with which we were bound."Awww!" said Ava from above, "we ruined their special moment!" The words were followed by a light chuckle. "Ava, shut up!" Dominic reprimanded her as I leaned against the wall for support to stand up on my feet. "Are you all fine?" Lady Catherine inquired, and I simply nodded. Thanks to Dominic that he intervened on time and saved me from getting hurt. "Oho! Brother, you always carry this rude expression on your face. Try to take things lightly and find happiness in little things!" Ava said and moved her eyes around. "See, you have so many flowers in front of you," she said, pointing to the blooms hanging on the wall behind me, "now focus
Third Person's POVAmaira sat in the middle of the baby shower because she was in her ninth month and the baby could arrive at any time, while others moved around her making sure she didn't want anything and that everything was within her grasp. No one wants anything to get complicated for her. Since the day her family learned she was pregnant, they have been celebrating each day as a festival, especially Christian and Dominic. They are overly excited and extra happy. They are both overjoyed, and they want the child to be a girl, whereas Amaira simply wants a healthy baby. Amaira stopped Dominic from doing the gender test because it would end the excitement and she doesn't want to kill the curiosity. She wants it to know when the baby will actually come out. "Oh, wow, dad, what is this?" Christian exclaimed as he examined Amaira's stomach.Everyone's attention was drawn to this, and all the family members who were busy with one or more jobs gathered around Amaira to see what Christi
Amaira's POV"Dominic, what are you doing?" I said as I moved away from him "Christian will come any time!" Dominic has been teasing me for the last half hour by touching me here and there. He hasn't given me enough time to get ready for the party. He says I should spend more time making him happy rather than getting ready because, at the end of the day, it is him who will see me and he likes me even when I am wearing ripped clothes."But he hasn't arrived yet!" he whined, pouting like a kid "I don't know, I want my evening love," We didn't want Christian to come home and ruin our surprise, so he went to school and the driver dropped him off directly at his tuition classes after school. The poor kid has been trying to tell us since the morning that it is his birthday, but we have all been ignoring him and pretending that we are unaware. We decorated the house, invited his friends, and prepared everything according to his preferences after he left for school. This was my father's id
Amaira's POVWe all went to our respective rooms after cutting the cake and dancing our hearts out. Christian was the one who did the most dancing. He appears to have been the most overjoyed about the wedding. He ended up being the show stopper, even the young girls were attracted to his charms. They were trying to get a chance to tease him. I am sure he will be embarrassed when he watches his video as he grows older.Ava was teasing me as she led me to our room, which she had personally decorated with her own hands."No way, no, no!" Christian's yelling and cries brought me to a halt.When I looked up, he was thrashing in the grasp of his grandmother, who was doing her best to console him. When Dominic heard his cries, he came out of the room and stood at the door."What happened to him? Is he okay?" I was curious."He begs to sleep with you!" Lady Catherine informed me.I noticed Dominic, was staring at his son with his lips pressed together in a thin line as his mother informed him
Amaira's POVChristian thought for two minutes before speaking up to announce his decision."Momma," he said, and my eyes closed in defeat. I wasn't expecting him to pick her like that."I love my mother, but I want to be with my cutie pie..." He said this while pointing at me, forcing my eyes open.Did he express a desire to live with me?Dominic, who stood beside me, squeezed my palms. His hands turned numb, showing that he was more nervous than I. "She is extremely nice to me. She has never beaten me like momma, she has never punished me by locking me in a dark room, she has given me a lot of chocolates and cookies that I love," he said innocently. "If I go to Momma, she will start beating me again and refuse to feed me. Cutie pie is the polar opposite of her; she even risked her own life to save me from that monster Austin. I will only be with her" He dashed up to me and hugged my legs.Stella called out to him as she noticed him hugging my legs, but he was not ready to listen."
Amaira's POVDominic refused to let me go to bring my father out of his hiding place, no matter how much I begged him. He was concerned about my safety. He was certain that his father would try something to derail their plan and kill my father because he was furious yesterday when he came here. We were all waiting for our father to return, especially me, John, and my mother. The small meeting Dominic arranged for us on Christmas was insufficient to satisfy our longing to meet him. After all, he was away from us for such a long time. Christian was playing in my lap while Lady Catherine and Ava were busy making sure everything was up to the mark for his arrival. I am truly grateful to Dominic's family for accepting me and my family as their own without any selfish motive.It's been an hour since Dominic left to bring my father back, and it's becoming increasingly difficult for me to go even one second without them. No matter how hard I try, I can't help but think negatively because he
Amaira's POVWhen I heard Christian's voice again, I quickly dried myself with a towel and exited in my bathrobe. Dominic was upset, but that didn't keep me back, and neither did he try to stop me as he knew that Christian needs me. "Cutie pie," he said again as I emerged from the bathroom, "where were you?"Christian doesn't like it when I leave his side for even a second. I am not sure how Dominic will get his fair share of time."I was taking a bath," I explained as I sat beside him, "what woke you up?""I had a bad dream," he sniffed, "and I was scared when I realized I was alone in the room." Tears welled up in his tiny eyes. "I thought that he will..." I interpreted him before he could complete himself. "Never think you are alone, my little monkey," I stroked his head lovingly, "I am always with you." He hugged me tightly."Come on, go back to sleep," I said, yanking him away.He nodded and slid back down onto the bed. I took off all the pillows Dominic had placed around him b
Amaira's POV"Now only my father needs to be taken care of," he cupped my cheeks, "and then we will marry with your father's blessings," he promised, kissing my eyebrow. "Dominic, thank you so much" I thanked him with my whole heart. "For what?" he inquired."For fighting your own family for me," I said as I looked him in the eyes."I am not fighting for your family; I am fighting for justice, and aren't you my family?" he asked, staring back at me "It should be me who should be thankful to you for saving Christian," "Isn't he mine?" I asked the same question to him. He kept on staring at me for a second before he smiled, closed his eyes, and nodded."But Amaira, you made a mistake by going there alone and that too without informing me," he said."I did it because I knew you would save me," I said with a broad smile "I trust you, Dominic" "Don't you have too much faith in me?" He inquired with a cocked eyebrow. "More than my life," I admitted.I didn't notice when he grabbed my
Amaira's POV"Dominic!" I screamed from behind as I didn't want him to take his life. This could become more troublesome for us. But it seems like I became a little late in screaming as he already dug the rock.....As I opened my tightly closed eyes, I saw Dominic still sitting on Austin, but the rock had been dug beside Austin's ear. Dominic's face was just above Austin's, and they were both looking at each other with wide eyes and taking deep, harsh breaths. The scene in front of me was terrifying. When I realized Dominic hadn't killed Austin, the energy in my body drained and I collapsed to the ground, releasing a deep breath that I was holding for so long. Austin appeared to be terrified for his life. Everyone loves their life, no matter how much he encouraged Dominic to kill him. He couldn't have predicted Dominic's reaction. But I am sure Dominic changed his mind about killing Austin because he is his younger brother, and Dominic still values his relationships."Mr. Kingston,
Amaira's POV "I was going easy on you, Amaira," Austin said as my head spun from the attack, "but not anymore!" "Ahhh," I help in pain as he holds me through my hair again. He appears to want it to pull my strands from my scalp. It was burning like hell but he cared less. He then pushed me down the tree, and I slid down it. He looked me down with no mercy in his eyes. He looked like a complete monster, with bloodshot red eyes, blood dripping neck, a flaring nose, and teeth ready to eat me raw."I am going to ruin you so badly that even Dominic won't accept you if he ever gets you back," he raged from above.I am not sure what I did wrong with him for him to treat me this way. I won't treat even my enemy like this. I took two deep breaths through my mouth as he unzipped his pant and unbuckled his belt. I tried to push him away from his thighs. But he knelt, folded my arms behind the tree, and tied them with his belt."I just hate you, Austin," I screamed while trying my best to fr
