Married by a Couple of Shots Chapter XXXIX- FALL
The season quickly changed and summer was quickly gone. Keille knew she had stayed too long in this small room. She looks around, inhaling deeply just to let it out at once. It was time for her to go home. At breakfast, where Prim was not present, Keille told them that she had scheduled a flight in the evening. Danny and Emelda were quite surprised but they knew she wasn't going to stay there forever and even if they didn't want her to leave, they don't have a say about it."Well, our home is open whenever you want to come back, Keille." Emelda smiles, putting her hand on top of hers, squeezing it. "We'll miss you, young man."One thing she hated about the hellos was always the goodbyes. And saying goodbye to these people she clearly didn't think she'd learn a lot from was a little splinter in her heart. It would take a while to pull off. It'll eventually come off her chest, she knows.After breakfast, she stays in her room, the guest room, laying down, her feet on the floor while h

"How is Prim doing?" Ellisa asked when they were having their 15 minutes break. "I heard Keille left."Rossie inhales deeply, blowing it all at once. "She looks like she had a break-up," she replied."Oof.""Yeah." Rossie nodded and swivels on her chair. Well, she did expect her family to be sad when Keille leaves but not this sad. It's contagious and she feels bad to be the only one who seems not that affected by Keille leaving. Her concern was Prim."Do you think they had a fight? Keille suddenly left.""No," Rossie answered. "She said goodbye to my parents and summer is over so naturally she'd have to go back. Keille has home school too.""Ask Prim, then.""Yeah, probably." After work, their men were already waiting outside with coffees in their hands. This has been an everyday thing now and it makes her feel like spring even though it was fall. Beaming, she strides to her husband, kissing him before taking the coffee."Good morning," he greeted her, a charming smile plastered on

At lunchbreak, Ellisa and Rossie sat at their usual table in the pantry. Ellisa has something troubling her pretty mind. She could not decide if she would go with Levius because it would be unfair to Rossie that she would go and not Rossie who is more the family. Levius did say that they didn't have to meet the Corporal but it would be nice too. She looks over at Rossie who was busy eating and glancing at her phone. Lately, she has been noticing how her best friend isn't as agitated as before. Was it nice having a husband? She has also been just bitching, like her nice attitude that can be taken for granted has now left her. It's good to see her grow but she should limit it too.Well, she has never been that free before too so it was understandable.. a bit, Ellisa thought before she cleared her throat. It resulted in its purpose, catching Rossie's attention."I see you have something you want to say," Rossie spoke."Yeah." She nodded. "Levius asked me to go with him and meet with the

Ellisa blinks a couple of times more. Did she hear him correctly or was her mind playing tricks on her? Did he really say he wants to introduce himself to her parents? But he said it didn't matter. What changed?"Why are you looking at me like that?" Levius asked, raising his brows. "And why do you sound so surprised? Didn't you want me to?"Immediately, she waves her hands in the air, shaking her head slowly from side to side. "I did and in fact I still do! But you originally didn't want to!""I want to. I was just afraid you'll want to meet mine and they're not here anymore... at least not my biological ones."For a second she didn't know what to say. Levius did tell her he was adopted by the Corporal and he uses their last name. Although he is one, he doesn't go in public and brag about it-- his request saying he didn't want an issue on his side. She always thought he never knew his parents but it turns out he does. "I'm sorry," she softly said. "I didn't know it was--""It was t

"Are you sure you're not coming with us?" Jared asked Rossie for the nth time. They were already at the airport, their private plane waiting for them.Rossie caressed his face, a comforting smile on her face yet he was not buying it. He really wants her to come with him but he knows he can't force her to."You have to go. It's only for what? Two weeks or a month? You've been away for three months too," Rossie tells Jared. He was keeping his puppy eyes and pouted lips, looking at her with a baby face."That was hard enough!" he whines. "I'll go back as soon as possible. Then I want us to live together.""Hmm..." she twitched her mouth to one side, "maybe... maybe not."Jared just rolled his eyes. He knew any minute now, Levius would drag him if he doesn't let go of his wife and so he broke from embracing her, moving away. He remembers the last time they were in the airport together. The words he said, he hasn't done half of it and he will soon. It's just, he forgets every time and she

"Stop staring at me!" Keille told him.While everybody was fond of Ellisa coming to see them, Jared can't help but frown, staring at Keille. He knows she's a she but, when she's wearing a dress and her hair long and with curls in the end, Keille was another person."Why the heck are you wearing a dress? Is that wig?" he asked, his face contorted."Obviously," Keille coldly answered. "Veronica told me I should do this and see if I like my girl side. I've been thinking of transitioning.""What?" His eyes were round."You heard me.""But you've been comfortable the way you are. Why would you change?"Keille looks away, the long hair covering her face. Jared already knows what face she was making, an undecided one. That is exactly why Veronica made her dress like this, to try and figure out what she really wanted."If that's the case then we'll leave it to you. I'm just damn shocked, I hardly could recognize you at first."There was a moment of silence between them, their eyes just lookin

In her bed, Rossie stares at her ceiling, a frown on her forehead. She knows she is supposed to be sleeping for her shift later but what happened earlier kept flashing back in her mind. It's been a while since she last saw his sincere gaze like that. It's like the old Jake whom she loved so much came back. She couldn't even guess if it was one of his strategies to take her back. It didn't look like it earlier. "Oh, come on, Rossie!" She suddenly slaps herself. "You're damn married! Jake is a fucking asshole!"Everything is finally in its place! She has a loving-supportive husband who puts her first and Jared never shouts at her! Their love story might have happened too fast but who cares? She loves him and he loves her, it's all that matters. It should be.Before her alarm could, Rossie already woke up, groaning and stretching. Then she sits up, grabbed her phone on her side table, and started scrolling through Ellisa's spammed texts. Finally, at the bottom, she sees her husband's te

After a long day of introduction and giggles, Ellisa and Levius finally have alone time in the garden. They just finished dinner and they thought it'd be nice to stroll in the garden. The moon is absolutely beautiful in its full phase blessing them with its beauty, together with the stars surrounding it. This night was perfect as it is."Your family is really nice," Ellisa spoke."I agree," he said. "They saved an orphan like me and showered me with their love and last name. If I knew how to take advantage of their kindness the whole group would be mine.""That's so confident of you," she remarked, a goofy smile on her mouth. "Enlighten me how it will be yours.""Jared doesn't want the title. So there was no one to take it but me."Rossie nodded. That's quite the idea but how about the females in the house? Surely they have an interest in that title. Who wouldn't want it nowadays? But what Levius uttered next answered that for her."The women in the family don't like headaches. Even i

The wedding bells just rang and the newlyweds came out of the church doors. Ellisa was looking so beautiful in her wedding gown and she looks as happy as I was in mine. Well, thanks to my best friend I got married so unexpectedly and fell in love with someone who set me free from a toxic manipulated relationship. I had to through a lot just to witness this moment with the love of my life and four-year-old holding mine and Jared's hand. His name is Caleb and no we didn't decide on that, Veronica did. She said it was the perfect name for the kid. Jared and I got married after the tradition was finally cut off with the help of Derek and Lily Adler. It was also unprecedented but he is now engaged to Stephanie Montreal. For some reason, Derek gave me Kenneth and now Caleb and he are best friends. Keille and Prim are busy studying and they seemed to be very compatible with each other. Whatever my sister chooses, I will always support her as how she has supported me through my ups and dow

Lara was summoned to the Corporal's house to check on Rossie. She just got the call and she immediately went. It has been a while since they saw each other and she heard that she has been kidnapped. And now she stands next to the Corporals waiting for Rossie to arrive with Jared and the others.The moment they see the cars, they all felt relieved and when they were finally in front and the doors opened, revealing those who went, the ladies cried. But what alarmed them was the fact that Rossie was unconscious, looking all pale, and worry was written all over Jared's face.Jared was assisted in getting the doors and they followed to the nearest room. Lara's kit was already there, and every apparatus she needed was ready in the nearest bedroom. Then she asked everyone out because she was also going to clean Rossie.When she was finally alone, she did her things and checked Rossie. The lady has weakened quite fast so she needed to insert some IV tubes because she was also dehydrated. She

Now that they had the exact location, Jared deactivated his live status and everything about the Corporal completely shut off, allowing no one to track whether his ranking remained or was replaced. He knew it was going to create a commotion but that is what he is trying to do. While they are on their way to the old rest house, Veronica finds herself decoding these codes from she knows who, Mister Sparacinos himself. He is trying to set a date and solicit half of the Corporal's property for Rossie. Veronica would do that if there were no other choice but they found and alternative and the men were already on their way to where he is. It's only a matter of time before all of this will be over. So she does her part and Keille too was helping her. They're hoping that if everything goes as planned, by tomorrow they will be able to hug Rossie again. If she had permission, she would've gone with them. It's different when she holds a gun, she could be useful but she rampages so nobody trus

In somewhere dark and stinky, Rossie and Kenneth were thrown by Garry's men into what seemed to be an attic of an old resthouse. It was full of dust and cobwebs. Unlike the room Derek got for her, this one has no light, no nothing and she was thankful the moon started to show and gave a little bit of moonlight. They have been in that car, traveling for so long and she feels thirsty. She was thankful Kenneth stayed by her side. At least she has company.She was so startled when her door flung open and then these big men came to get her. Kenneth barked and even tried biting one of them but he failed because he was so little they just tossed him. She had to cover him up and not let go of him. That's when Garry came and she knew he was a devil. They dragged them out of that mansion and into a car. No, here she is in wherever this place may be. "Don't worry, Kenneth." She pets the puppy who sleeps in her lap. "We'll be rescued and you'll return to Derek and I'll return home."It didn't

Papers on his desk, cold coffee on his side, Jared had fallen asleep on his desk again. He was so tired from trying to gain access to a blueprint of the Sparacinos' mansion. Spending hours staring at the screen had his eyes drooping and hurting so he was going to take a break and he fell into slumber.Now a knock on his door was disrupting his sleep and he groans, moving his arms and lifting his head. Ugh! His neck is stiff and he moved it side by side, groaning again. He hopes whoever comes inside has some good reason to wake him up."Come in," he said. The door flung open, revealing a breathless Keille. This kid was always so chill but who chase him that he's catching his breath?"I need to talk to you," Keille uttered. "You sound like some predator was chasing you," he remarks. "I went to the Sparacinos mansion and spoke with Rossie." Instantly Jared's eyes widened. Keille did something that reckless and he's in front of him unscathed. Jared was still shocked when Keille continu

From the second-floor terrace down to the long staircase and endless halls before the main doors, Veronica ran, breathless when she was outside. She just saw Keille driving a car and with unprecedented speed drove away from their mansion. She knows that Keille was not happy Rossie was still not rescued and he has been crept up by guilt. Raking her fingers through her hair, she could've done better. Early in the morning and they could lose another family member. What is Keille thinking?*It was so early in the morning but Keille couldn't wait anymore. He has been hearing Primrose cry for her sister and every time he sees her, his heart breaks. It is careless to just go straight into the Sparacinos' mansion but he could not think of any better way to do so. It doesn't matter if he gets shot. He deserves to be shot.The drive to the enemy's lair is an hour and a half drive but Keille got there in fifty with him accelerating every opportunity he could. It was like playing his game, only

Three days had passed and Jared still could not locate where they are hiding Rossie. They have infiltrated most of the Sparacinos' properties but there was still no sign of his wife. Soon enough they'll only have one choice but to check on their main mansion. The only problem is it was heavily guarded. It would be like two kingdoms going to war.He knows he is going to win it but there would be a lot of lives that can be lost. Their business affairs will be affected as well. It was only him, he would go and won't care for his life but he has to be practical too. He needs to carefully think this out. Rossie would need him alive.A loud knocking on his door interrupted Jared's thoughts, making him blink and back to reality. He coughs and composed his posture. "Come in," he said.When the image of Harry came in, Jared immediately stand up. This man was leading the search so his coming in would have some news."Young master." Harry bowed his head for a second and raise up. "We have search

Child? Keille asked in her mind. Rossie is pregnant? She has to go through all of these because of him. Whatever it is that he was feeling right now. Guilt or conscience? It was eating Keille. If he didn't help and agreed about the fake kidnapping, they would not move here, and Prim won't have to cry. "I have to do something," he mumbles to himself. Keille doesn't seem like it but he has a collection of useful spy tools. He has also learned how to lockpicks. He has been interested in it since he loves playing games. It's a fact that a game's situation is different from reality but the difference is not that far. He just has to remember that he won't respawn.Once he gets home, he'll find Rossie himself to make it up for agreeing to that plan, for Rossie being captured, and for Prim's cries. He just hopes that Rossie is still alive.*"How much longer until we can get out and look for dear Rossie?" Miriam cries again, wiping only the corners of her eyes with a silly handkerchief. "Oh

Everyone saw Jared drag Stephanie inside and saw worry written all over his face. Even mister Montreal was shocked to see them together. When he was out of his auto-pilot mind, he told everyone to stay inside while telling the men that they were holding a meeting.In Gerald's office, they gathered. Everyone was intrigued, their faces itching to know what was up with Jared."Mister Montreal, did you somehow have a fight with someone? Is there a bounty on your head?" Jared was always straightforward with anything especially now that he know someone was coming for them."No. I don't think there is someone after us nor did I do wrong to anyone," Gerald answered. "What is all of this, Jared?""Is someone after your daughter?""No. There is no one with that we had an argument for many years now.""Then why was someone aiming at her earlier?""Someone is here?" Both Levius and William asked in chorus. Gerald now worries and like Jared's reaction earlier anger crossed their faces."Do you hav
