CELINE HERRERA POV

Giving birth was a nightmare, but as I stared at my beautiful baby girl's face, I couldn't help my heart filling up with joy and love. I glanced up at Belshar who was grinning down at the baby in my hand.

"She's so tiny" he got out, his voice filled with awe.

"I know, right? After all that food, I thought she'd be a lot bigger"

His grin stretched, his eyes crinkling at the side. "She's perfect," he said, then looked up at me. "Just like her mother"

Color filled my cheek and I leaned toward him. "And she's strong just like her father," I said and pressed a kiss to his lips.

His eyes were moist with tears when I pulled back.

My heart squeezed; the feeling of too much happiness in my chest suffocating. But I loved it. I loved everything I felt when I was with Belshar.

"You're going to be a great father Belshar"

He took my hand. "I promise to always be there for you and our daughter. And our other kids that we are going to have very soon," he grinned.

    BELSHAR NESSAR ABED POV "We need to join them at the table," Celine murmured against my chest, where she had her face pressed against."But I quite like it here. Just the two of us, dancing under the moonlight"Her arms wrapped around me. "Me too," she sighed, then glanced up at me.Her eyes sparkled, reflecting the iridescent glow of the moon. I wanted to get lost in them."It feels so good to get away from everything, doesn't it""Yeah," I nodded, then caressed her cheek. "How are you feeling. Has it been difficult with Sadie""Not too hard since you help out a lot... Antonia has also been a good help to her. Thank you for getting her. You were right, she's really good at her job"I grinned. "I am happy to hear that. If it gets too hard, tell me okay"She nodded. "I will"Celine gaze darted to the hall as the music coming from inside changed."Do you think they'll notice that we've been gone for a while?" she asked, meeting my gaze."Kail is keeping them busy with his MC skills.

    CELINE HERRERA POV"You have got to be joking or raving mad," I said then gasped in shock because I hadn't meant for the words to slip out of my mouth. I glanced at my grandfather whose wry expression spoke volumes of just how much my outburst had offended him. Forcing myself to appear remorseful despite the rage that burned in my chest, I got to my feet. "I am so sorry, I didn't mean to say that, it's just that this whole conversation is so jarring, I can't seem to process it and because of that I am having a brain-to-mouth malfunction, please I did not mean to insult you"Grandfather sat straighter, his gaze piercing into mine. "And what is so jarring about this conversation? Didn't you say you were ready to do whatever it took to make sure you get the company as an inheritance, or am I mistaken""No you're not, but I don't understand how you can come up with such a requirement. I have been running the company for five years now, I already have a sizable amount of share to my name

    CELINE HERRERA POVBelshar gaze lifted and I expected to be berated since he'd taken his sweet time to stare me down but instead, he just walked past me, his rich deep baritone sending a shiver up my spine as he spoke to someone behind me.It was as if I didn't exist. Picking myself up from the floor and wiping at my ruined shirt, I took a deep breath, my rage all but forgotten, and stepped out of the club.The night air was harsh against my skin and as I sat at a city bench, waiting for my best friend I couldn't help but feel down and miserable.Was I really that plain that I couldn't even hold Belshar's attention for even a minute, even when I'd spilled drinks on him?That wasn't the rumor I'd heard about him, of course, he was a very mysterious person and no one knew Jack about his personal life, but the one thing he was notorious for was his ruthlessness, so was I just not worth his effort."What the hell are you doing out here... And where the hell is your phone, I've been trying

    DELIA HERRERA POVI didn't like George... Didn't like the way he smelled either, the reason I was here was all because of Belshar Nessar Abed and as he walked past me to go meet up with his wife's cousin Bella, I couldn't help but watch him.But it was annoying. His wife was already dead so why was he still meeting up with her relatives?On the surface, people didn't know Belshar had been married... I'd had to dig and pay a lot of money to obtain the information... Belshar was a very private person, the only thing not so private about him was that he was a psychotic killer who destroyed lives with no emotion. Still, he was my one desire. He was also the sort of person who cut people off just for the fun of it, so should I worry that he was still so close to his wife's cousin?Bella was not someone I could easily go against... Not everyone was as spineless as Celine, but God damn it, I wish I could. She was the reason Belshar hadn't noticed me tonight.He'd bumped into Celine of cours

    CELINE HERRERA POV"This is so nerve-wracking," I said clutching to the contract that I'd drawn up". I had already emailed Belshar and hadn't gotten a reply... Was that a rejection... Should I even go ahead with this? "Are you sure this is the right thing to do though?" Karen asked. She was someone I always confided in before I went through with things because, despite her age, she was quite practical. "What else can I do, Karen? Going on dates isn't going to cut it... Plus building a relationship that leads to marriage takes time... The only way I can be married and have a child in two years is this way""I understand that, but why does it have to be Belshar? His name literally sends fear slithering down people's spines whenever it is mentioned and now you want to shackle two years of your life to him. That man is a monster""What other choice do I have!" I yelled losing my temper that had been on a thin line after my encounter with Delia the night before. "I am about to lose my com

    CELINE HERRERA POVI gaped in horror as the cold air hit my bare skin. My dress was ripped down to my waist and if I'd thought that would stop Belshar from throwing me out, it didn't, he pushed me out and slammed the door behind me.I stood like a fish that had been taken out of the ocean, staring at the dozen pairs of eyes that were all trained on me.My eyes burned, the humiliation making my face hot. I clutched my dress close, forced a smile onto my lips, and tried not to break down as I blindly navigated my way out of the huge company.Once I stepped into the elevator and the door shut, the tears that I'd tried so hard to hold in started falling. I sobbed so hard that when the elevator stopped on the first floor, my eyes were puffy and red-rimmed. I stepped outside the elevator only to freeze as camera lights flashed in my face from all directions.Reporters? What the hell were reporters doing here... Did Delia find out that I would be coming here and have all this planned? Que

    BELSHAR NESSAR ABED POV Celine looked utterly terrified and she had every right to be after the stunt she pulled... She dared to lie using my name. God, she appeared so pure without a stain to her name but I was starting to see her for who she truly was. Celine jumped to her feet. "How the hell did you get into my house" she asked, her gaze darting from mine to the door as she tried to look for an escape while making sure that she was not within my reach. Cocking my head, I regarded her darkly. "Is that really the question you want to be asking right now, Celine Herrera" Gods! Even calling her name was making me mad. Every time I said her name I remembered Selene, and her blood-drenched face as she'd drew in her last breath in my arms.Celine swallowed audibly, her right hand rubbing against her left arm. "I said what I did in the heat of the moment, You have to believe me, they were making all sorts of assumptions and my torn dress was not helping..." she said then jutted her chin

Or maybe it was because I couldn't fucking breathe. The tablet fell from my hand as I gasped for air and clutched at my chest to relieve whatever it was that was clogging it up but it didn't help."Andrea!" I gasped for the name of my maid, but I was sure she wouldn't hear even if she was in the same room with me. My voice was that low.Getting to my feet proved difficult and when I finally managed it, I stumbled toward the front door because I knew if I didn't get air I was really going to suffocate.My heart squeezed and the door in front of me felt as if it

    KAIL NESSAR ABED POV "Oh," Karen gasped, then pulled away from the kiss.I stared at her, my heart pounding as I took in her flushed face and swollen lips."What's wrong?" I asked as I watched her try and catch her breath."Celine. Celine and Belshar are here. They were the ones who told me about where you were. I was scared to come alone, so they came with me"I shook my head as I sucked in a deep breath. "I know," I said, then turned, and pointed to where Celine's phone was peaking through the hallway by the side of the wall.The phone soon disappeared and I chuckled. She probably noticed me staring and pointing at it."You two can come out now! Your cover has already been blown" I yelled and waited.Celine was the first to come out. She smiled as she gave a small wave. "Oh my God, Kail, it's been how long since you vanished," she said, The guilty smile on her lips stretching the closer she got to Karen and I. Belshar followed behind and stopped by Celine's side when they reached u

    KAIL NESSAR ABED POV "What the hell do you want?" I groaned as I stumbled out of bed, my feet studding against the bedframe and jarring me awake as pain shot up my body. "God damn it"I grumbled as I walked out of the room. It was probably room service. My head throbbed and I barely managed to avoid tripping on the bottles that littered all over the floor. Just how much did I drink last night?"I told you not to fucking bother—" The words died on my lips as I yanked the door open and came face to face with Karen.I stared at her, my heart stopping for a beat."Karen—" her name escaped my lips as my heart kicked up in my chest, and then I clenched my eyes shut. "God, I am going crazy," I groaned, then chuckled under my breath as I rubbed my hand over my face. "I must be drunk out of my fucking mind. How long am I going to keep seeing your face, Karen," I muttered to myself, then pulled my hand away.My brows furrowed as I stared at her. Why was she still standing there? On a normal da

    CELINE HERRERA POV "Absolutely not," Belshar said, then faced Victoria, who quickly looked away and shrugged. "You cannot travel in that condition""Why not? I already gave Karen my word that I was going to be her wingwoman," I pouted, and he scoffed."You are not going to be traveling, Celine, and that's final. Call Karen and tell her that you won't be able to go with her." He said then paced for a bit before turning to face me. "Did you forget what you went through in the past months? The doctor said no stress"I crossed my arms, my brows furrowing hard as I frowned. "Travelling is hardly any stress and you owe me this much after everything that happened"Belshar let out a sigh of frustration and then glanced at Victoria again. "Are you not going to say anything. Tell her just how dangerous traveling is in her condition" he said and I looked at her, my eyes daring her to say anything that was not in my favor She sighed as she dropped the towels she was folding. "If it's just for a

    CELINE HERRERA POV THREE MONTHS LATER "What's wrong. You've been spacing off for a while now" Karen turned to face me and then shook her head, her eyes squinted to avoid the glare of the sun."Nothing's wrong," she answered, and I gave her a look because even a blind mind could tell by her aura that things were not right."You know you can always talk to me right"She forced a smile. "I know that"I couldn't help becoming more concerned. "If you're still traumatized about the whole thing you went through, I can fix you an appointment with the therapist that helped me when I experienced something similar"She sighed and came to sit beside me. "No, you don't have to do that at all. I promise I'm really fine."I nodded even though I wasn't convinced. There has been something off with her ever since the rescue and her refusal to talk to me was starting to make me worry.I already felt bad that she got dragged into our family's mess and had to go through something so horrible, so why wa

    KAIL NESSAR ABED POV I watched as they wheeled her away, my heart burning in my chest.Belshar walked toward me; his face was grim and emotionless. He stopped in front of me and my jaws clenched, the anger in my chest poisoning my blood."You sure took your time, Belshar"He scoffed, his gaze moving over me. "That's what you think but I didn't take a rest for the ten days you both were captured, kail. I did everything possible to make sure you didn't have to die In this dump""If it was Celine, you would have made sure you rescued her in time" I roared and grabbed his shirt. "Do you have any idea what Karen went through in there? She's probably going to be traumatized after this" I gritted and saw red when he smirked."What the hell is so funny" I gritted out, the urge to punch him in the face becoming impossible to resist."I didn't think I'd see the day you would be concerned for someone else. I thought you were angry for yourself, but it turns out it's for Karen. You're down that

    KAREN POV I started to get up and stopped when he reached out, his gaze intent on mine."Don't" he started, then swallowed, his gaze darting away from mine. "You don't have to get up"My face flushed and the prickly feeling in my neck intensified despite the frigid air. "Don't you like me anymore?" I asked and he shook his head, even though the action caused him a bit of discomfort."I like you a lot, Karen. You have no idea how hard it has been for me to have you so close and not be able to do anything" he said, his gaze pinning mine. "From the moment I laid eyes on you at the cafe, you consumed my thoughts. I couldn't help but watch you... I must have scared you"I bit down on my lips. "You did scare me at the start but I knew you weren't going to hurt me"A flicker of a smile ghosted across his lips, then he became serious. "You told me at the cafe before all of this happened that you loved Enoch. I told you how I felt about you and that was your reply"I twiddled with my thumb,

    KAREN POV "I used to really hate Belshar, you know," Kail got out as he turned on his side to face me."Why?" I asked, staring into his grey eyes. "Because father and mother used to pay more attention to him than me. It was almost as if I didn't exist back then. They always had their eyes on him, so I had to go the extra mile just to get them to notice me."He paused, and I watched as a wry smile played on his lips. He looked so sad, it hurt my heart."I started to bully him because of that. I took pleasure in causing him pain since he took all my joy away. Father and mother soon noticed, and instead of getting in trouble, they told me that they were proud of me. So the pattern formed. It was only when I hurt him that Mother smiled at me, so I did it more times than often. But that feeling of finally being noticed soon faded because it was still because of him. I hated him so much all I thought about was killing him""And Belshar never fought back," I asked. It was a bit surprising
