Completely losing her rationality to think about right and wrong, Nina grabbed that knife with her shivering hands and attempted to pierce it inside her stomach but before the tip of that knife could even graze her skin, someone gripped the edge of that knife with his bare palm which resulted in that knife to get stained with that person's blood. “What are you doing, Nina?” That voice made Nina take her glossy eyes upward and it got filled with more tears when she saw who that person was. Who was that person who even took that right from her of taking her own life. Her gaze blurred with more tears, seeing those dusky brown eyes peering at her with extreme amounts of worry and gloominess.Riccardo snatched that knife from Nina’s hold which made everyone breathe out in relief, especially Rican who for a brief second felt like he was on the edge of dying the moment he saw her grabbing that knife.“You are not a coward to do this to yourself, my child,” Riccardo's words ached her heart m
“Your father, Logan Halzen was that person who killed Noelle in that accident, seven years ago,” Nina was completely frozen till her core when she heard those words coming out of Riccardo’s mouth. She could not believe this. It felt like she heard something wrong. Her father had killed Noelle? No, this can’t be possible. Her father could not do this. He might not be a good person but this inhumanity? Her father could never turn this brutal. Her heart refused to believe it until she saw those tears glistening up in Riccardo’s eyes. The tears of pain which could never be seen in the eyes of a lair or deceiver.“And no one knows about this except for me, Rican, Easton, Dario and Ameline that Noelle’s accident was never fated. It was planned to hurt and harm Rican and the attacker knew that Rican’s strength and his biggest weakness was Noelle,” Riccardo uttered. Nina turned her head and found shock engulfing both Flora and Aniya’s eyes. They both were looking entirely perplexed, except fo
“That day when I found out that you are Logan’s daughter, I told Rican about this and it enraged him a lot,” Riccardo uttered, staring at Nina.“He got so angry that he even wanted to hurt because Rican could not endure the fact that his past has again come in front of him after seven years. Your presence was making him recall about his past more terribly and when he returned home, you had already escaped from there,” Nina clearly remembered that day when she escaped from his home after the argument they had with each other.“And I myself don't know why but he started looking for you like a maniac and when he finally found you…he could not make himself hurt you because…” Riccardo paused.“He could not make himself hurt you, Nina. He couldn't hurt you because…you can call it guilt, remorse or care for you but what he started feeling for your presence, it overpower his hatred for your father and his past,” Nina's heart clenched more vigorously, hearing Riccardo's words. She recalled th
“How is he now, doctor?” Riccardo uttered, extremely tensed and worried. They all had come to the hospital after finding out about Rican's condition and that attack on him. “We can't say anything till the operation won't be finished. The bullet has been aimed at his chest and he has been attacked by a knife multiple times, so we need to find out if he has received any harm to any of his vital organs,” the doctor informed.Nina's eyes filled with more tears, hearing the doctor. He had been hurt so much and it was just because of her. She told him to leave her alone. She told him to leave from there and if she would not have said that, if she would have tried to listen to him for once, if she would have not been so selfish with him then none of this would have ever happened. His life would not have been at stake if she would have kept him closer to her. It had happened because of her and her selfishness. She turned so blind in her own pain that she forgot that she was his only cure and
“It has happened because of me,” That voice made Riccardo tilt his head and his eyes enlarged, seeing Cain in front of him. His head was wrapped in a bandage. Multiple bruises were visible on his face. It bewildered Riccardo, especially when he saw Kester and Niley standing behind Cain. Kester and his family avoided attending their wedding anniversary party, saying that they were out of town but everyone knew they didn't come to the celebration gathering because of Nina and Cain's past. But respecting their decision, Riccardo didn't force them to attend the party then what they were doing here?Riccardo watched Cain walking towards him, followed by his parents, Kester and Niley. “Uncle Rican is in this position because of me, grandpa,” Cain uttered, lowering his head in front of Riccardo. His words startled him even more. Riccardo looked at Niley and Kester and saw their heads were lowered too. Tears were falling from Niley's eyes. Riccardo darted his gaze at Easton and found him nod
“Mi alma….” Rican's froze completely. After seven long years of that painful yearning, he was finally seeing her in front of him. His best friend, his existence, his very first love, his alma. Immediately tears stung his eyes. Rican threw his arms around her and bursted out crying. He tightly clutched her in his embrace, fearing she would vanish if he would loosen just even a bit which he didn't want. He didn't want to let her slip from his embrace again. He didn't want her to fade again.“I missed you. I missed you so much, mi alma,”he uttered in between his sobs while hugging her more tightly. After seven years, he got to hold her in his arms. He got to see her again. He got to talk to her again. He got to feel her again.Rican felt her wrapping her arms around him which gave his heart the tranquillity he had been dying to feel all these years. It made him tear up more like a little kid.“Hey! Why are you crying?” he heard her saying to him before she pulled back to look at him. Ri
“I am sorry,” Nina saw him uttering those words to her. His glossy gaze lingered at her like he had been terrified that he was not going to see her again and this was what she had been feeling since the moment she got to know about his attack. She had died in those few hours with every passing second to just get a glimpse of him. She was turning lifeless just to witness that his life was safe and protected. Nina felt a scorching pain evoking inside her heart when she saw a lone tear rolling down from the corner of his eyes. It made her heart bleed. “I am sorry, Nina. Please forgive me for hurting you, mi reina,” he breathed out, staring into her cerulean watery eyes which glossed up more at his words. Sitting beside him on the bed, Nina slanted herself closer to him and his heart finally found its peace when he felt her pressing her lips against his forehead. She kissed his forehead with everything she had, telling him how much she had longed for him and how much she had been hurting
Both Rican and Nina got up from the sofa, seeing Cain and his parents walking in their direction. Nina found Rican not just only stepping closer to her but also ahead of her a bit with Cain's every step coming towards her and she knew exactly why. He had now turned viciously possessive and protective of her after everything that had happened in their lives and especially when their child was breathing inside her now. He didn't want to take any kind of risk in any way. They both saw Cain standing in front of them while his parents stood behind him. They saw Cain lowering his eyes before them. “I am sorry, uncle Rican, Nina. I am really very sorry,” they heard Cain apologising to them with his lowered head. Lifting his hands up, he joined them in front of him. “I know my mistakes are not forgivable, especially the inhumanity which I had tried to do with Nina and then getting blinded by hatred for you, I ended up harming uncle Rican whom I have always considered as my family, so please
“She loves me more….”“No, she loves me more….” “No, me….”“Me…”“Me…..”“Nori…Rina….” Hearing that voice, both the girls turned their heads and saw their father standing at the door who was peering at them with a startled look on his face as he was watching both of his daughters grabbing each other's hairs and trying to make each other go bald. It made him recall about his own childhood when he and his sister, Flora, used to pull each other's hair in every fight.Sighing heavily, he walked towards his daughters who were still glaring at each other. Rican kneeled beside both of them as they both had inherited their adorable heights from their mother.“And why are my princesses fighting again?” He asked while trying to make them lose their grips around each other's hair before they would rip each other's hair apart.“You both know that if mamma hears you both fighting again then she will throw all of us out of our home,” he uttered, making both of his toddlers giggle as last time which
Her hands were surrounded around his naked back. He had stripped both of their bodies completely bare which were grazing against each other. Laying under him, Nina was enjoying his mouth claiming her sweetness as his. Their tongues were colliding with each other while their mouths were sucking each other’s warmth. Nina gripped his hair when he trailed towards her jaw and started putting sloppy kisses there and then travelled down towards her neck. Her body shuddered when he gave a suck on her sweet spot. After that, he licked her skin with his warm and wet tongue which erupted numerous sensations inside her body. Nina squeezed her legs, unable to control those tingles which she was feeling in her lower region.He took one of her bosoms in his mouth and started sucking on her nipples which made Nina nibble on her lower lip. Bliss washed over her. This man surely knew how to drive her crazy for him. Nina was busy enjoying the pleasure he was giving her when suddenly she remembered somet
“I wanted to spend our first wedding night in our home because we needed to meet her,” Nina said to him whose gaze was fixed at those celestial sapphire orbs of Noelle's in that picture in front of him.Nina watched him staring at Noelle's picture wordlessly which made her sigh softly. Nina held his hand which made him slowly trail his gaze towards her. Rican found a soft smile playing on her face.“You know that day when I met her for the very first time….” He heard her pausing and then she turned her head to look at Noelle's picture.“That 12 year old Nina fell in love with her, especially when she gave her that rose because that 12 year old Nina used to believe that we gave rose to that person whom we love,” Rican wordlessly heard every word of hers which she was saying to him with that tender smile on her face.“And you know when I asked her if she loves me…she told me that she loves me a lot,” Rican saw her smile widening as he was sure she might be recalling that day when she ha
“You are looking mesmerising, Nina,” A soft smile formed on her face, hearing Aniya while her cerulean eyes were gazing at her own reflection in the mirror where she was watching herself wrapped in that beautiful pale white gown which had shining stones encrusted on it. A long veil was attached to the top of her head. Her face had no layer of makeup which was showing her tiny freckles. Her lips had a natural flush of rosy pink but the most beautiful part of her appearance was her slightly swollen belly which had started showing finally as she had stepped into her third trimester of pregnancy.Smiling, she placed her palm over her tummy and gently caressed it.“So how is Mr Junior Alfanso feeling about his parents getting married today finally?” Flora asked, beaming. Her question made Nina blush. Yes, today was that day when she was getting married not just only to the love of her life but also to the father of her baby. No, it was not feeling like a dream anymore because her devil Al
