Never to look back I am willing to sacrifice my life for you… what does this count for?
A week passed by since Amanda’s disappearance and yet no one seemed to be impacted by it. Not even her parents; everyone was engrossed in their own schemes. Walter manor too quietened down after the Walter ladies went back to their husband’s home. Eva had returned late at night after a social gathering when she heard the faint sound of conversation coming from her in-laws’ room. She tippy toed closer to the room without realizing that her shadow would expose her. Adam’s eye flickered as he saw the shadow hovering near the door. He suppressed the flames arising in the depths of his heart and continued the conversation feigning ignorance. “Why didn’t you stop second from going? Is this the age to be willful and muck around?” Elizabeth continued to complain in grievance “Look, he hasn’t even called home since the last time 3 days.” “What if…” Elizabeth was in the midst of having a mental breakdown with her imagination taking flight. Adam covered her lips with his hands and spoke in a

The thing Emile looked forward to most this past week was the video call with Chris at 7pm. The call would come as clockwork, no matter whether it was hail, storm or snow in the world around them. Emile would make sure she completed all her tasks and would be waiting by her computer before 7 in her room. The phone didn’t even have to ring before Emile would pick it up. But today, the phone didn’t ring as usual. Emile started to get anxious even though the time on the clock showed that it was only 2 mins over. Whether it was Emile’s over imaginative mind or the pregnancy hormones, either way Emile’s stress levels were rising at a phenomenal speed. “Duk…. Duk….duk…” Emile didn’t think much as she heard the knock on the door and hurriedly opened it and went back to her computer. She didn’t want to miss Chris’s call. She didn’t even spare a glance at the person who entered her room; it had to be said that Emile’s alertness level was non-existent in this environment. Emile didn’t even s

Chris sat up as thought of the last update from Night Slide. He dialed Henry without hesitation. “Hello” Henry picked up even before 2 rings went through. “It’s Christopher.” “I know.” Henry chuckled “Do you need tips on how to ease my sister’s temper?” “No need.” Chris rolled his eyes “My wife, I can manage. However, I do need your help.” “Um???” “Are you able to create an illusion that Emile is home at the Burke residence?” “Where is my sister?” Henry’s eyes narrowed; his playful aura was replaced with a baleful one. Christopher didn’t take any offense; He explained the situation briefly without touching on the second brother’s issue. “No problem.” Henry’s lips curled up in appreciation; this Walter was much to his liking; no wonder his sister took a fancy to him. “Don’t hesitate to call on the Burkes if you need any assistance. We are family.” Henry didn’t hesitate to extend the olive branch. “Thank you, big brother.” Chris smiled as he hung up. Next, he messaged his fat

Emile rushed downstairs as soon as Anne told her that Master Dupont had received the information she requested. “Madam, please slow down.” Anne rushed behind her worriedly. However, Emile didn’t pay any attention to her. “Monsieur” Emile walked in excitedly as soon as Raphael invited her to enter the study. “Um?” Raphael feigned ignorance as he lifted his eyebrows quizzically. “That… the information…” Emile couldn’t be bothered to be embarrassed; She blurted blushing. “Have you finished the designs I asked?” “Huh?” “The spring designs we talked about yesterday.” Raphael asked with an expressionless face. “Oh… no…” Emile lowered her head before raising her head hesitantly “Can I finish it tomorrow?” “No.” Raphael smiled wickedly “When you hand me your designs with one hand, I will hand over the information with the other. How about it?” Emile stood where she was pouting resentfully before stomping out of the room with a childish temper muttering that everyone was bullying her

Life wasn’t smooth for either of them. Darcy wanted to tell his family, but Grace wanted to be able to stand on her own feet before telling his family. This was especially difficult for Darcy who never hid anything from his family. But for her, he was willing. As long as she was happy, as long as she was by his side, he would wait patiently for her to be comfortable for meeting his folks. He tried his best to reassure her that his family was not like the other families. But she wouldn’t bulge. It wasn’t that she didn’t trust him, she wanted to settle her vampire family members before announcing their marriage. She knew how greedy and insatiable her family members were. She didn’t want them to suck Darcy’s blood dry. She wanted to settle her folks comfortably before settling down herself. She couldn’t bring herself to cut off her relationship with them even though she knew of their materialistic love and unsatiable greed. She thought that once she brings them to settle comfortably the

Emile sat back with a heavy sigh; she didn’t even realize that she had tears streaming down her cheeks. She had been so engrossed in her reading, in Grace's life that she didn’t even register Raphael who came over at who knows what time and was currently sitting beside her reading. “How can anyone survive such an ordeal? Isn’t it tiring?” Raphael in all his wisdom couldn’t understand and concluded with a sigh, affirming his lifelong understanding of love “I was right… love is either fake or tiringly bothersome.” “I still don’t understand why you all flock towards it seeking death.” Raphael’s eyes revealed the confusion of a child, innocent and baffled. “Because….” Emile paused as she saw Raphael’s eyes looking over eagerly “it is the essence of life.” “You only live once, why not live to the fullest… like it mattered… leaving behind traces in the warp of time rather than living a long life that is safe and meaningless...” Emile shrugged. “You think my life is meaningless?” Raphael

“I believe I just figured out how to, or rather where to start looking for Grace.” Emile smiled brilliantly. Raphael’s lips curled up too… he had to admit, Emile’s spirit was infectious. “What do you need me to do?” “Can we look through all universities in the country offering courses in archaeology?” Emile thought for a moment and added “further away from our hometown and the university Grace studied at previously.” “Consider it done.” Raphael turned his head and nodded towards Danos. The rest of the day was spent discussing the designs that Emile handed over in the morning. Raphael was very impressed with the design; it sat well with the concept he had in mind. He discussed the ideas he had in his mind and asked her for imputs; the two modified their designs as they discussed. Raphael told her that they had to have the designs for 24 sets ready in 2 weeks so that Laura, who was responsible for getting the designs from paper to cloth, could have enough time for making and remaki

“What’s bugging you?” Ron put his glass down as he stared straight at Daniel. “I really don’t know what to do.” Daniel pursed his lips as he filled his glass again “I know you all told me that Emile has moved but I can’t give up; I feel suffocated every time I think about it.” Ron listened silently without interrupting. “Then, there’s Michelle. I know she loves me, and I do have feelings for her. I feel like I owe her too much but …” Daniel sat back swirling his drink “But I just don’t know if I am ready to marry her.” “She had a show down yesterday.” Daniel downed his drink before continuing “She wanted me to give her a definitive answer within the end of the week.” “What else do you expect?” Ron spoke slowly “The lady regardless of what I think about her, has been following you for 10 years. She deserves an answer.” “I….” Daniel wanted to defend himself, but he didn’t know where to start. “Do you want to say that you love Emile now?” Ron raised his eyebrows and continued witho

Chris and Emile made their way through the reception hall, toasting guests at each table, in the order of the closeness of their relationship. Adrian, Neil and Night Wing took their roles seriously as they blocked the drinks for Chris. Emile had her supply of fruit tea that Abbey religiously re-filled for her; No one knew why, nor did they think much into it as this was Chris Jnr’s arrangement.Chris and Emile had just reached the table where Grandpa Holston was seated when Chris Jnr slowly stood up from his seat and walked towards them, holding little treasures hand. The rest, along with Bruno in the lead followed with excitement as they knew that the fun Emm mentioned before was about to start.“Thank you for coming and blessing our special day with your presence.” Chris raised the toast towards Ron and the rest; he didn’t even spare Grandpa Holston a glance. It was not in his nature to grin and bear grievances.“It was our pleasure.” Several associates including Ron hurriedly joine

Chris and Emile moved to the cake-cutting event with the reminder from little treasure. Cake cutting had a little twist, contrary to the norm where the bride and groom feed each other with the first cut, Emile fed the piece she took to Little treasure while Chris fed Big treasure before letting the two treasures feed them.Although it wasn’t planned and neither big treasure nor little treasure were ready for the surprise, both husband and wife knew each other’s thoughts the moment they looked at each other; they didn’t need to plan or coordinate for such flawless action. The action from the duo that followed also wasn’t planned nor coordinated, it was their norm, the duo would always feed daddy and mommy with their little hands in reciprocation from when they were old enough to grasp things.While the shadow guards took it upon themselves to deliver cake to each and every individual that attended the reception, Chris and Emile personally hand delivered the ones for family and relative

Once all the guests were seated comfortably according to their table arrangement leaving the seats in the front vacated for family, Augusta as the coordinator for the wedding, announced the entry of the bride and groom, in all its grandeur while the DJ set the background scores for the romantic entry of the bride and groom.Emile’s favorite symphony floated through the air as she and Chris made their grand entrance, once again wearing a couple set; they had changed out of their traditional wedding attire they wore in the morning to a champagne-colored gown and suit. They walked in, Emile holding onto Chris’s arm with a blissful smile, like a pair of immortals strolling through the mortal realm as they walked through the hall to the center, followed by their little tails also wearing a mini version of their set. The adorable little dolls had their heads held high, a proud smile hanging on their faces as they followed in their parents’ footsteps.The bridal entourage followed behind wit

Everyone went back to their rooms to rest and change before the reception banquet, which was also the continuation of the wedding extravaganza with no expense spared. With all the guests housed in Royal Lux, the hotel was closed to outside business, other than the ones that had a pre-booking and couldn’t be changed to another date.“Where’s Christian?” Daniel turned to question Ceilier as soon as he reached their room; It was not that he didn’t notice that Christian wasn’t with them, but the truth of the matter was that he didn’t get a chance till now.“He went off with the Walters.” Ceilier twisted his lips awkwardly as he replied in a low voice.“That bastard…” Daniel gritted his teeth as he muttered under his breath before turning his attention to Emile. He waved his hand, instructing Ceilier to step down before walking up to Emile and taking a seat facing her.“What’s wrong?” Emile asked in concern as she saw Daniel staring at her with knitted brows.“Nothing ….” Daniel shrugged b
Never to look back Who asked me to be the grandma from hell?
“Senior Master Walter, the ride for returning to the hotel is ready.” One of the shadow guards from the team who were assigned to the Walters and Burkes announced as he stood respectably by Adam’s side.“Um…” Adam nodded as he took the treasures and Bruno with him “Lead the way.” Adam walked forward holding Big treasure and Bruno while Elizabeth held little treasure’s hand. No matter how uncomfortable she was, little treasure put on a brave smile and walked forward, as though she was heading for the gallows. Both Adam and Elizabeth feigned ignorance although they were laughing in their heads; she looked too adorable!Adam purposefully left Little treasure to Elizabeth’s care even though he knew that she would be uncomfortable. His intention was well meaning; to give them a chance to get to know each other better. He just didn’t expect the extent of aversion he saw in little treasure’s subtle actions; there was not just aversion but also fear mixed with guilt which Adam never expected;

The groom kissing the bride, captured in the backdrop of the rising sun, was too magical to say the least; Other than the younger generation of the Burke and Walter household who were causing a ruckus by whistling and cheering, all the other guests were mesmerized by the magical moment that was unfolding before their eyes.“Wow! That was so magical.” One of the guests exclaimed as she turned around with a dreamy expression, stretching her hands; no one could despise her excitement as this was the thought in the hearts of most of the people who came to attend the wedding; the finale of the wedding was too mesmerizing for even the most grounded and rationale minds.They would never forget this magical moment for the rest of their lives; the moment they witnessed nature proclaiming the fulfillment of a man’s undying affection and loyalty; the moment they witnessed the groom and his bride finally attaining their happily ever after, despite all the odds that fate had stacked against them.

“Mommy, you better take care of your man from here on…there's only so much a little girl can do…” Emm’s bell-like voice rang out as she advised seriously forgetting that her mouthpiece was still on “It was hard work, but we got him here for you.”Everyone burst out laughing as they heard the childish reprimand, leading Emm to wince in embarrassment as she hid behind her elder brother biting her tongue.“Uff….uff…” Chris Jnr cleared his throat like a little adult to attract everyone’s attention before he continued “As you have witnessed, our daddy’s journey to his happily ever after has been anything but smooth; whether it was our mommy’s blindness to recognize his unwavering affection and love….”The laughter from the crowd continued while the bride shyly lowered her head, but not without glaring at the flower boy who suddenly became talkative. Emm didn’t have any solidarity with the bride as she covered her mouth and giggled.“or whether it was the judgmental eyes of the world around
Never to look back You could never do what he did…
“You could never do what he did…”“What did you say?” Daniel asked in shock; he had heard what she said even though it was a whisper; he just didn’t want to believe it. He didn’t want to believe that Emile had recovered her memory. If she didn’t why would she say that?“How can you arrange so many hot air balloons? Such an extravaganza wedding would need the coffers of the king opened.” Emile giggled as she turned around to face him.Daniel stared at her face for a long time trying to make sense, trying to discern if what she said was purely based on the wedding arrangement or whether there was a hidden meaning in them. But before he could process this line of thought, the ceremonial bells rang leading everyone to take a closer look at the hot-air ballon in the center. Although it was one that could hold 35 people, there were currently only about 25 people including the celebrant and his assistant.“That is actually a priest not a celebrant.” One of the guests in Daniel’s basket, who h
Never to look back We will set everything right after this wedding.
Almost all the guests in the hotel woke up in the wee hours of the morning as they had all arrived to participate in the youngest Walter’s wedding. All of them without exception were filled with excitement regardless of the reason for their excitement.No one knew the exact location of the venue, as other than the name, Church in the Sky, Mossel Bay, there were no details of how to get to the venue. All they knew or were told when they asked for location details was that transportation for them to be taken to the venue was arranged for everyone attending the wedding.Cars were lined up one behind the other, at the hotel entrance, picking up the guests as they arrived at the entrance and heading for the venue. Daniel, Emile and Christian lined up at the back of the line as they arrived.“What are you looking for?” Emile asked in confusion as she saw Daniel looking around.“Grandpa is here too. I was looking to see if he was around.” Daniel shrugged “He could come in the same car as us.
