Zendaya’s POVWhen I awoke again, I found the strange man to be at the door talking to a doctor. He seemed worried and from time to time he would give a fit with the doctor calming him down.If he was the president, then didn’t he have a country to run? What was he doing by my bedside?I found his attitude to be weird. Why was he really hellbent on getting me out of bed? “She’s awake,” the doctor whispered to him, which I heard as they walked to me. “Hello miss Zendaya. How are you feeling?”“I’m okay,” I sighed. “A bit tired but I think I’ll survive.”I looked to Asher who had his eyes fixed on me. The doctor recalled his staff in the room as they all exited leaving us alone. “How are you?” he asked the minute everyone had gone. Why was everyone not leaving with this man? Who was he? He was creeping me out. “I think I’m fine,” was my reply but I was clearly not fine with him around. I wanted him gone.“Do you remember anything from yesterday?”“I already told you and the other peo
Delia’s POV“What?!” I yelled. “You’re the man here and not me. You should find a way to finish this up.”“Well that’s your problem. They don’t know me but she definitely knows you. That’s why you are the one taking the rap for it and not me.”He looked around and started to fly around packing up his things and dragging his box. Now this was alarming watching him do.“What are you doing?” I asked. “What are you packing your things up for?”“I am fleeing the country and abandoning you.”“What do you mean? I thought you said you loved me.”“That was before I knew what kind of crazy psycho bitch you turned into. I don’t even know what to say about you right now. It’s almost like you don’t care about anyone but yourself. Have you seen what you are? Look in the mirror and you’ll see how dangerous you’ve become. “You don’t care about anyone but yourself. It’s always about you and what you can do and can’t do. You make up plans that can put others into trouble. Now I see why your father loc
Asher’s POVI tried for several days to get her memories back but nothing ever worked. It was almost like I was pouring water on stone. I tried talking to her as a husband would, tried telling her of the tides we had had and the sex we had done in weird places but even that was an epic fail. I even had the children call us on video call but when they had asked what happened to her I said she had fallen while we were playing on a carousel. This had the children happy but they noticed something was off with her.I tried everything with her and yet there was nothing that helped me know she was getting better. It was almost like she was totally gone. I could not believe she was this messed up. I wanted to cry and yell at the universe for messing up my life but I didn’t do that. I calmed myself down and kept trying.All the pictures we had taken, the videos we had made, everything and she still couldn’t remember a damn thing.I was disappointed in myself for not being able to do anythin
Asher’s POVI could not go to the hospital that day because I had to take care of the children and tell them that everything was going to be okay.During dinner, they would not shut up about how they wanted to see their mum in the hospital and I kept putting it off. It was not going to end well if I actually let them go and see her. I knew how it would end.“Come on, we want to see her!” Layla yelled.“You can’t see yet. Not yet. The doctor won’t allow anyone but me in the room.”That was the excuse I kept on giving. If they saw her state, they would see she was in a worse state than before. I did not want them to start thinking that she had been involved in something worse than just an accident. “How about we watch movies and play games?” I brought it up as they cheered.Throughout the night, to avoid their questions, I played countless games with them until they passed out. That was very tiring but this method would work until she was out of the hospital.My problem came when I wo
Zendaya’s POVA few days later, I was treated and found perfectly okay to go home. This was not a surprise seeing as the major problem had been the gunshot and my amnesia as the doctor called itThe funny thing was that I didn’t feel like I had amnesia. I felt normal and okay. Maybe that was how it worked. Asher came to personally take me home and he brought a limousine with everyone taking pictures while I walked through the hospital halls.We entered the car and the driver drove us home.“Now you might find the place a bit familiar since you’ve been staying there for a while,” he said and I was excited to know that there was something I could at least remember, however when we got there, I found that I could not remember the house at all.I tried really hard to remember the house before me but it was impossible. I felt like I had never set foot in this place before.“So… what do you think?” he asked at the compound grounds but I shrugged.“I… don’t remember being here,” I sighed. “
Zendaya’s POVI felt guilty after sleeping that night, waking up the next morning feeling lost and confused. I didn’t know who I was or why I had done to deserve this but I hated this feeling.I was the only one around that was confused. I had a family I didn’t know and I hated that they were all trying to help me remember who I was but it wasn’t working. I tried staring into the ceiling to know if I could remember anything but even that did nothing to help my anxiety.Everything seemed so comforting in this place and familiar but I couldn’t remember anything.Like when I had woken up, I had placed my hand on the bedside to grab my phone as it was a reflex action. I didn’t even know how I was capable of doing that but it all boiled down to the fact that I had been living in the place for too long and my body knew what to do.A knock on the door with it opening had me smiling just as the triplets entered.“Good morning mummy,” they said at the same time without looking at me. I greeted
Delia’s POVIt had been days since I got information that Zendaya was back from the hospital but she was still having memory loss. This was my chance to go for Asher and get him back. He would not argue with me, after all his girlfriend was no longer the same person.Her memory was screwed. I was sure she wouldn’t even love him the same way. I was still afraid that if she regained her memory I would be screwed. This was clearly Marcus’s fault. Why would he shift blames?I had shot her but while taking out the body, should he not have seen that she was still breathing?Now I had to deal with his failures. And he had even left the country. Since Zendaya was without her memories and by now the children had gone to school, then it meant I could pay her a visit. Of course Asher would not be home so there was no need getting worried over him being home.I got into my car and drove to the mansion. At the gates, the guards stopped me and I tried to get inside. Why would they stop me? I had
Asher’s POVAs soon as I got out of the car, one of my guards came to me with a wary look in his eyes. I knew something was wrong.“What is it?” I asked as he looked into the house.“Delia came around. She’s in there.”This had me fuming. What did she want? To ruin my life and my relationship? I had to stop her before it would get out of hand.“Why didn’t you stop her from getting into the house?!” I yelled.“Miss Zendaya told me to let her in.”“She has amnesia. Did you fucking forget that? She doesn’t remember who Delia is.”I rallied the security men in the house as we entered and started searching around for her.“Where is she?” I asked a confused Zendaya.“Who?”“Delia. She entered here. My men said they saw her go in with you.”“Oh you mean Mary? She went to the restroom.”That was no Bloody Mary. That was the demon herself. I decided that I was going to intervene. I ordered for her to be dragged out of whatever hole she was hiding in which they went round searching for her. Th
Asher’s POVAfter listening to what they had said. I smacked my forehead as I laughed out loud at what they were hiding. I couldn’t believe they had put me and their mother through this. I had almost lost my mind.I immediately went back home, to change into my suit.While dressing up, I laughed again at what the children had told me at the hospital. They were very smart and cunning. Zendaya was going to have a kick out of this. I couldn’t wait to let her in on what had made her suspicious.When I was done. I headed for her wardrobe to go through the clothes that were packed there.I took out an evening gown which she had not worn for anything yet. This would be better for the outing.A knock on the door and I opened it to see the butler smiling at me with a tray in his hand.“I got it sir,” he said, bringing the tray to my eye level so I could see a diamond bracelet on it.“Thank you so much,” I said to the man. He had been my butler from day one and I carried him everywhere and on e
Asher’s POVIt has been more than a year since I last won the election and my children had celebrated their seventh birthday. It was a great time for everyone and I wanted to have a different experience with them.Our days at home had been the same thing. From home to school for the children and for me and Zendaya, it was mostly from home to work and back again.We needed some time to relax and enjoy ourselves. That was when I planned a vacation for all of us. We would go to a beach resort and spend a few days there.Zendaya approved of the news but complained to me that the children were behaving suspiciously. I didn’t see any problem with this but after continuous complaints I decided to go into their room to see what was going on.I entered their rooms to see them acting innocently and wondered if she was okay for accusing the children falsely.“Are you calling me a liar?!” she yelled that night but I shook my head.“No, I wouldn’t dream of it, but I do think you should review you
Asher’s POVSix months later I was called to a parent teacher conference as we listened to all the teachers had to say about the children. I was happy to have dropped the children in this place. Their teaching standards were high and they taught the children things they were to know in real world scenarios.We had gone with the children and after the meeting, we got out to see the triplets bragging to other children about how they were the children of the president.I frowned at this and was ready to teach them a lesson in the car, however, Zendaya had other plans.She grabbed the children to a corner and tossed them to the wall in anger.I followed her quietly with my hands in my pockets. I didn’t want to drag any attention to ourselves.“What is wrong with you three?” she growled as they kept their eyes on the ground knowing they had fucked up. “Are you all out of your mind? Bragging to children about your parents achievements is not your achievement.“You were lucky to be born in
Zendaya’s POVWho knew that in three months a lot of things could happen? I had been living a life of regrets for a long time. When I finally let go of those regrets I was happier and I found that my life was better than the past.I was richer and smarter. I was respected and had more people asking for my help. I was seen as the one who would change the future and I did my best to change that future. I refused to hold back in the way of giving out meetings and holding councils on how to help the country grow into something greater. My relationship with my husband grew stronger than before and I could not believe that at some point in my life I was considering murdering him. He was sweet to me. Even as a president, he gave me so much and respect that I knew what love really was.He didn’t give excuses for why he was not with me or the children. He did his possible best to be with us and for months we knew what having a father and a husband was like.During the three months, Blair ha
Camila montclairs POVI had sold the company to a new CEO. A faceless person that I had no idea was. I had not even known if the person would be kind or wicked but from what I heard, he could be ruthless at times.I had sold the company but my shares remained. Due to this I was still a worker in the company. Even though I was a high ranking worker in the company I still feared what the person would do to me.I did not want to put out a front that I was scared so when Aurora had sent the message that the CEO wanted to see us, I had gulped but remained calm in my own way.Being in the company boardroom I was shaking nervously as I didn’t know what to expect. I started to hope that the new CEO would be kind to me and my family who were still working in the company.“Who is the owner?” I asked Aurora who shrugged. Even she did not know.I took in deep breaths to calm my raging heart. The door opened with the new CEO getting in as we all turned to see Zendaya walking in with her assistant
Asher’s POVI looked at what I had written for the press but then dropped the piece of paper aside. There was no need to use it. With a sigh I leaned in for the microphone.“I’d like to thank my wife for being my backbone in all of this,” I said while looking at the woman who beamed proudly at me. “She alone handled most of our strategy. And I’d like to thank my team who made all of this come true. “Because without them, I would have fumbled. My wife might have been one of the brains but she did not carry out the operations, my team did. “I’d also like to thank the politicians and the rally organizers and the media for propagating my story and for the citizens who helped me get up to this point, I promise to never let you down.”The media cheered just as a man ran up the stage to whisper into my ears that the inauguration was starting up immediately in the government halls.I nodded before running into the room to change into a more comfortable outfit with Zendaya.“I thought you w
Zendaya’s POVWe went on a peaceful walk and talk the next morning and talked about how the next election was going to be. I could feel this election and I knew the competition was going to be stiff this year.The air of winning was just as stale as that of losing.Everyone voted for Asher the last time because he had so many supporters and he was a young blood in politics, but this time, there were so many young bloods following in his example as they wanted to beat him at his own game.It was hilarious but I found it motivational that he was becoming the one pacing way for so many people to shrug shoulders with him.The problem I had been having in his team was his campaign manager who thought he knew better than me. I didn’t want to school him but he was not willing to listen to anyone.He had made Asher win the last election because Asher didn’t have any competition. Now Asher has competition, all his plans had done was reduce Asher’s chances at beating the opponents. I stepped
Asher’s POVAfter a few weeks of having one of the best honeymoon of our lives, we returned and reunited with the triplets who were already waiting at home for us and they were happy to see us.They had so much fun in their grandparents house that I could not do anything but smile at how happy they were.I excused myself from time to time to deal with my campaign team who were calling to notify me on the plans we would put in place for the election.Ever since Zendaya brought up those plans to help me win the election, I had seen her as an important part of my life. She wanted me to win and she didn’t want anything to happen to my plans. I was extremely excited for how everything would turn out to be. I had given the plans to my team and they had been wowed by the plans. They had seen it working already and when we ran a simulation we found out that it was higher than other opponents trials by far.“So we’re going with it,” I had said to them during the video call as they accepted.N
Zendaya’s POV“No, no,” he said to me. “This isn’t a cry for help. I can do this. I’m just not ready for anything pushing me further than I can carry.”“This is still all my fault. If I had not done what I did, you would have been free. But instead, I got to you with all that evidence and now they are using it against you.”“They would have found it sooner or later anyway, don’t bother yourself about it.”But I knew that was him trying to make me feel better. Instead I was feeling worse.I was determined to make it up to him. I would come to him with my evidence against his opponents and they would have no choice but to back down. I knew how to do it.They had nothing on me and my connections. I was ready to destroy them if it ever came to it.This was my fault. His popularity was reducing due to the evidence I had brought up against him. He could lie all he wanted but I knew what I had sought out and compiled against him.At the time I had wanted to get rid of him. I had told my conn
