Selena POV Morgan can try whatever he wants, but if I have Theresa on my side, we would defeat him. But here I am, my body aching from the things I did. "Morgan, I need some rest," I said, and he gave me a murderous eyes. I knew that if care wasn't taken, he would slap my cheek again, so I ran to the kitchen. How did I forget that I can fight, maybe it's because I love this man. I began cooking what we all would eat as breakfast. "This is perfect," I said when I was done, my feet were trembling and I felt weak. I hope this will be the last task for me to do. I need to rest. Going to the living room, I was met with a shock of my life. Theresa was speaking, and laughing with Morgan. I became bitter seeing how she was speaking with Morgan. "Theresa!" I called, and she got up. "Yes, Selena," she said. "What are you doing?" I asked. "Communicating," she said. "Whose side are you on?" I asked. "Yours of course," she said. "But you do not hate him, neither should I." "You c
Morgan POV What I got from Theresa was enough for me, and I could see in her eyes that she was telling the truth. I knew what Selena was trying to do. Selena is a fool, but Theresa isn't. In Selena, I could see a use-and-dump situation. She was thinking of using Theresa to get to me, after which, she would dump her. "What side are you on?" I asked. "I do not know," she said. Her eyes were speaking the truth. She didn't know what side to be on. "I am grateful that Selena brought me out from the slum," she said. "I want to get more fighting power." "You agree that you can't fight with me," I said. "Yes," she said, bowing her head. Selena got up to her feet and looked at Theresa. "No, you can't say that," Selena screamed. "This day isn't over yet, but you want to give up? Remember, we are here together." I could see her gritting onto her teeth angrily. "We are two. We can overcome," Selena said. "That is where the issue is," Theresa said. "Two against one is cheating." S
Tricia POV I woke up early in the morning and saw Paulina in my room. I have told her not to do this. "Good morning, Paulina," I said sitting up. "I should brush my teeth." "Daughter, that can wait," she said with urgency in her tone. I looked worriedly at her, it was not clear, but her face. I heard a snore. "Who is here?" I asked. "Sarah," she said, and my eyes widened. "Has she seen my face?" I asked, and Paulina shook her head. "Why did you bring her here?" I asked. "Calm down," Paulina said, worriedly. I calmed my nerves down and took in a deep breath. "I am listening," she said. She looked at me, then nodded, looking out. "Yesterday, while I was coming back from my work in the evening," she said. "I felt someone following me, so I hastened my footsteps." She took a deep breath, then continued, "After entering the house, I bolted the door and looked through the small hole; the person had a mask and wore a dark cloth." "He looked at the door and wrote some things
Morgan POV My phone rang, and I looked at the two ladies who were sleeping. "We've gotten her," Alonso said. "Where are you?" I asked. "The house," he said. I smiled with everything I had and told them to go on. "She should be fed well before her veil is taken off," I said. "And what if she isn't Tricia?" Alonso asked. "Then you will send her away," I said. "Only use your gun to scare them when necessary." "Alright, Morgan," he said. I smiled, thinking about Tricia, but my heart was unsettled. "I should be able to wrap my hands around Tricia," I said. " Then tell her that I love her." My doubt increased as my heart remained unsettled. "Why do I feel that she isn't Tricia?" I asked myself. Selena woke from sleep and looked at me. She looked at Theresa and shook her head. Although the ladies were still friends, Theresa didn't join in the fight. With a stretch, Theresa got up. "What do you see?" Theresa asked, and I guess she is hallucinating. I have seen people like
Morgan POV Waking up in the morning, I opened the windows. I didn't wake up early, because I had no race to do. Staying in the house for days with this ladies was like a year. Thankfully, today is the last day. I felt sad about the news of Tricia. Was Selena saying the truth that I would never see Tricia again? I hope she is wrong. Last night fight was easy, every steps, and tactics Selena took were copied from me. However, she wasn't quick to launch, or should I say that I am quick to avoid, and dodge. I walked down, and didn't see Selena. This got me angry, and I walked to the door. "Selena, your duty," I said. Theresa walked to me, and pleaded saying that Selena is still resting. "I do not care, get her up," I said. Theresa obeyed me, and walked out with Selena. "I feel sleepy," Selena staggered. "A more rest." Her words didn't have effect on me, and I slapped her hard. "Get to work!" I shouted. The pain of not getting Tricia crept in me. Theresa looked at me, and a
Morgan POV It was afternoon, and I felt bored. Speaking with Theresa has helped me all these days. I knew it, Theresa had become my friend. She has shown all the qualities that I require in a friend. Since she said she is good at kidnapping and stealing, I would check her skill after this Saga. It is a good thing that Selena brought her along. "You look dull," Theresa said placing her hand on my back. Normally, I don't accept this act from ladies, but I think it will be a good start till the time Tricia comes back. Although, keeping to my words, I have given up on looking for Tricia, but I still have every reason to believe that one day Tricia will come back to me. Or maybe we will cross paths one day. Tricia isn't dead, and this I was sure of. "I feel bored," I said. Theresa walked to the other couch and sat. "Because you can't step out of the house," she said and I nodded. "I also feel the same. Never had I stayed in a locked house for a day." I nodded, looking at h
Morgan POV Her cry filled the entire house, and Theresa needed to cover her ear. I bent down and said, "No one apart from Theresa, and I can hear your cry." With her teary face, Selena looked at me. "Give up, or continue. Tonight is the last," I said. As soon as I slapped her cheek, all what she had eaten, flew out of her mouth. She looked at Theresa who was enjoying the cigarette. "Shit, you vomited all," I said, and Theresa laughed hard. "Clean this," I said, pointing to Selena. "My legs are hurting," she whimpered. "I do not care," I said. "Since you want to take Tricia's place. You only have today." I pulled her up to her feet, knowing that it would be hard for her to stand long. She walked like a spider immediately, and not after long, she was done cleaning. "Give up, or not?" I asked. "I won't," Selena said. Looking at her, I held on to my fist and gave her a hard punch, sending her to her feet. When it seemed like, she was going to faint, she said the three word
Tricia POV I have been vomiting rigorously, and coughing. Paulina suggested that I go to the hospital, but I refused. Today, I felt weak. I neither could stand nor sit, my body was hot, and I struggled to have my bath. The door to my room opened, and Sarah, who acted like me to my master, came in. "Hi, Tricia," she greeted. "Hello Sarah," I said in a weak tone. I allowed her to see my face after she came back safe. She will be my sister. She is a lifesaver. "I heard from Paulina that you are feeling fine," she said. "I am weak," I said. Sarah walked to the bed and sat below my leg. "Paulina said she was confused about this before, but seeing this she knows that you are pregnant," Sarah said. "Pregnant!" I exclaimed, and Sarah nodded. "She doesn't want to tell you, but wants you to know by yourself," she said. "How?" I asked. "Get checked in the hospital," she said. "Hospital?" I asked. I felt uneasy with the idea. What will become of me if I get to know that I am preg
Morgan POV I remembered the picture that I held the last day. Rivers was Theresa's brother. "You are awake," Tricia said. I smiled and gave her a peck on her forehead. My gaze went to Ethan's bed. "Our son is soundly asleep," I said. She laughed and told me how she had to keep Ethan down last night. "He is becoming more stubborn," she said. "Then I will take care of it," I said. I walked to Ethan when I sensed that he was awake. "Ethan, you are to take your bath now," He used his legs to hit my hand and smiled looking at his mother. Tricia smiled when she saw what Ethan did. I raised him to my arms and he struggled to get free. "Here we are," I said as I placed him in the bathtub. We played a little before I had his bath. "Today, I want to take us out for a fun time," I said as I walked out of the bathroom with Ethan. "Should we take our bath together?" Tricia asked. I didn't expect her to say that so I was a bit surprised. "We can't," I said thinking of how it wo
Morgan POV Two months had passed, and it was the day for Rivers's burial. He died a month ago. We all wore black as we stood by his grave. "Rivers, my brother, I remembered how you were," I said. Tricia stood beside me and held a flower. Drake and Theresa had come from their college to grace this occasion. He stepped forward with a flower and placed it on the grave. Tricia supported me but I couldn't help but feel angry. Why didn't he tell us what was happening to him? If it wasn't for Drake, we wouldn't have known about his issues. I held onto Tricia as I watched others walk to keep their flowers on Rivers grave. As the boss, my wife and I were to go last. We walked towards the grave to drop our flowers when they were done. I suggested that we should celebrate Rivers life in a restaurant. They accepted, and we left for a nearby restaurant. Our time of mourning was over, Rivers had been buried and now, life moves on. "Good morning," I heard a lady's voice while we were in
Tricia POV I chose to be stubborn even though Ethan's cry filled my heart. "Ethan, go to your father," I said. Morgan looked at Ethan, who held onto his leg. I could see him smiling and this gave me confidence to walk to him. Before I could say a word, Morgan slapped me. I felt extremely sad and my cheek stung. I looked around and saw people staring at us. This broke my heart and I left with Ethan. Entering the car, I told my driver to move. Maybe I was stupid when he slapped me. I stood there and looked angrily at him instead of pulling my gun on him. This idea made me smile. We got up and I walked up with Ethan, ignoring Felicia's call. In the room, I placed my phone on the side table while Ethan walked to his bed. Looking at my phone, I saw two missed calls and one voice message, they were all from Morgan. Taking a deep breath, I clicked on the voice message. In it, he pleaded with me and said that he would search for Cherry when his mood gets lighter. "Don't plead
Tricia POV I waited for Felicia to be done with whatever she was doing before I called my driver. "You didn't need to wait for me," she said. I told her that since it was our first day to come together, I chose to leave with her. "Alright," she said and brought out her phone. She asked if we could take her to the house she lived in with her husband. "What would you like to take there?" I asked. "A lot, just don't worry," she said. Soon, the car arrived and we got in and sat like sisters. Felicia directed us on our movement. "Stop!" She said when we got to a gate. I wanted to come with her into the house but she declined. Five minutes later, I got worried as I didn't see her come out so I decided to go in. "I will be back soon," I said to the driver. "Should I accompany you?" He asked. I remembered what Morgan told me about my driver but no, I couldn't allow him in. "No, don't worry," I said to him. This could scare Felicia. I felt safe as I was with my gun and could
Tricia POV Miranda greeted Felicia but didn't take her eyes off her. Soon, the day was clear, and Morgan decided to get Felicia a few things. Felicia behaved awkwardly, but I guessed she wasn't used to being treated the way we did. The doorbell rang, and I saw Felicia shake. "Felicia!" I called. "Don't be scared. I walked to open the door as it seemed like the person was an outsider. It was a delivery man. He asked if I was Felicia or Mrs. Bliss and later gave me a package. "Mr. Bliss told me to deliver this to Felicia Bliss," he said after I signed and then left. I called Felicia and asked her to check it out. "Who is it from?" She asked. "Morgan," I said. Felicia opened the box and looked through everything. "Where is Morgan?" She asked. "I do not know," I said. As soon as those words left my mouth, the door flew open and Morgan stepped in. "Thank you, Morgan," Felicia said. I asked him where he was but he ignored by going out. It's been long since he last ignored
Tricia POV While we were in the restaurant, I held Felicia's hand. "What are you doing, Mrs. Bliss?" She asked me. "Quit the formality," I said. "Call her sister-in-law," Morgan said making me blush. "But I am not...," she was saying. I placed a hand on her lips as I knew what she wanted to say. She might not be related to Morgan by blood, but they had a bond when they were young. I wanted to feel like I knew someone from Morgan's family. We left the restaurant when we were done eating. Miguel drove to the group's house and I wondered why he did that. "Hold on," we said to Felicia as we got out of the car. Morgan advised that I locked all the doors for the safety of Felicia. She wasn't a member of the group so there was no need for her to come along with us. Getting into the car, I saw Felicia's head buried in her lap. It felt like she was weeping. "Felicia!" I called. Morgan turned back and looked at us. "You should let her be," he said. "She is going t
Morgan POV After taking my bath, I walked down with my family. My phone began to ring, it was Johnny. He asked me about my plans to get Mr. Adolf to confess. "Felicia chose the surname of her foster parent rather than her husband's name," I said. "It means that she isn't happy with him." I looked away from the phone and then thought for a while before speaking. "I will go in as a commoner," I said. "What if he knows who you are?" Johnny asked. He could say nothing to stop me. The only thing that they can do is to follow me. "How many would be coming?" I asked. "Five," he said. "Names?" He mentioned five names, but why wasn't Alonso included? "Alonso?" I asked. "He has a business ordeal," he replied. I sighed knowing that I had never interfered in their personal business. "Alright, come along with Maxwell," I said and ended the call. Tricia placed a hand on my shoulder. "I trust you to bring justice," I smiled hearing this and kissed her hand. "I am forever grateful
Tricia POV The week passed as quick as possible and we were in a new week. I woke up and took Ethan to bath. It has been a struggle to take his bath ever since I got home from being kidnapped. "Ethan, be easy," I screamed. He was stubborn, and I guess he got that trait from his father. Turning back, I saw Morgan glaring at me. "I can take care of him," Morgan said. "Alright," I said handing Ethan's towel to him. I walked down as I didn't want to hear Ethan's scream. Thirty minutes later, Morgan walked down with Ethan. "You should go to bath," he said. I nodded and was about to go up when Ethan walked to me and shook his head. He rested his head on me, and I knew that he was sorry for behaving stubbornly. "You should be gentle next time," I said. Morgan laughed and when I asked for the reason he laughed, he said, "You wanted a male child who will behave like me." His words made me smile. I walked up the stairs with a smile on my face. After dressing, I walked down and Mo
Morgan POV We walked into the car and I drove home since Theresa and Drake were going to be less busy for two days. "Ethan!" Theresa called as I drove. Tricia wore a frown on her face. I knew that she was angry with the way I did. Parking the car at a side, I told everyone that Tricia was going to drive the car. Soon, Tricia sat in the driver's seat, and I could hear Ethan hail his mother, although he couldn't speak. It was a slow ride but it was nice. "Let's go to the complex," I said to Tricia. "Why?" She asked trying her best to keep her eyes focused on the road. It looked funny that she was trying to behave like me. This was the reason she was slow. "You aren't a master so keep your gaze low," I said to her. "Alright," she said. Taking my advice, her driving was a little bit faster. "To the complex," I said. We got to the complex, and Tricia held my hands before I got out of the car. "Who are you here to see?" She asked. I knew that she knew that I wasn't going t
