A WEEK AGO

I stare at the blood on my hands while trying to process what just happened. My parents are dead. Yet I’m alive. How?

The Police and ambulance Sirens in the distance cause my brain to go numb. How am I not dead? Why am I always the unlucky one? Why couldn’t I have died instead?

“Mom, dad.” I say quietly while desperately trying to make sure they're alive. I unfortunately can’t reach them to make sure they're alive because I’m trapped in the back seat of the car. I try to pull myself out of the car but I can’t. I try moving but I’m stuck.

We just had an accident. I cannot explain how it happened but all I do remember is a car hitting us from behind. My dad lost control of the car and everything from there is just blank.

I’m covered in blood, yet I’m alive. The ambulance reaches us and I’m immediately pulled out of the car. I don’t even know how they pulled me out because my mind just keeps saying ‘they’re dead, they’re dead? they’re dead.’

I hear voices all around

    Kane and I both stare at Stella whilst she struggles to even look into our eyes. She looks so different. More dull like. It’s not like I ever liked her and even though she was annoying she was always full of life but now her eyes just look dead. She shockingly jumps into my arms and hugs me. I slowly lift my arms up and rub her back soothingly. “I know I haven't been a good person but I really need this right now.” “It’s alright stella.” “Well I guess this means we can come in?” Kane asks, acting very insensitively. Stella let me go. “Oh yeah sorry about that, come in.” We both enter inside and she closes the door. The house is a beautiful duplex considering her parents were fond of showing off. Literally everything in this house looks like money. From the chandelier to the couches to the curtains. Everything. Kane and I sit on the couch while Stella brings us water and drinks. She drops it on the table and joins us on one of the couches. “Since when did you become hospit

    Kane and Aurelia left just two days ago yet I’m mentally going insane. Leonard keeps treating me like I’m still his mistress. I don’t act as he wishes Of Course but when he says he needs to see me I always have no choice but to go over to his place because of our agreement. I’m presently at his place. He and Isabel have been working on trying to infiltrate the palace. It’s harder than we thought apparently but I’m not shocked because a king is always overly protected. Leonard and Isabel are still talking about their plans in the living room while I found an excuse to escape. I lied that I needed to ease myself. I found myself in one of the rooms and decided to call Aurelia so I can get an update on what the hell is going on. “Forgot about me already?” I joke. “I wouldn’t be lying if I said I did.” “And why is that?” I smile and sit on the bed. She’s probably joking around. “See you can’t exactly remember anything when you find out that your mothers a lesbian.” It’s Kane th

    Kane has been sifting through Stella’s mom's journal for the past few hours without saying a word and I can’t help but wonder what’s up with him. “You know you don’t have to keep reading it forever.” I say and place my hands on his shoulders from behind the couch. I bend my head till it’s seated on his shoulder and look at the page he's reading. “That page is the only page that relates to Emaine.” He says and stands up. He throws the book away and starts walking up and down. “Kane calm down.” “Aurelia, I love you but you have no idea how someone is meant to react when they find out their mother is not who they thought she was.” He’s breathing heavily whilst pacing. I hug him from behind and feel his body relax. He lets out a breath and turns around. He hugs me. “Thank you. I need this.” He whispers into my ear. “I think it’s time we go see Daniel because this is a dead end.” I say. “I think we should go back to Rome.” Kane lets me go. “What, why after coming so far?” I

    “Isabel Evergreen?” I ask to be sure that it is the same Leonard sister we’re talking about. “Oh yes that was her surname.” Daniel says. Kane and I look at each other again. He immediately unties him. “Look here Daniel, I’m going to need you to explain every single thing you know about Isabel and Emaines relationship.” Kane says whilst Daniel is rubbing his bruised hands. “Can’t I Atleast rest first?” He says.. “No you cannot just rest-” “Kane!” I interrupt him. “I’ll order food for you but whilst we wait can you please give us any information.” “I’d honestly love to because you two just saved my life but I can’t think straight on an empty stomach.” I’m starting to think kanes methods are better than mine. I look at Kane and nod. I leave the room and start to dial a food delivery place. It takes a few minutes so once I’m done I go back to the room and the first thing I see is Kane poking daniels bruised leg. “Kane, it's alright!” I yell. “Daniel, your food is on its way

    “How dare you.” I say. “Did you really think I would be okay with my father getting murdered? I may have not known him and disliked the fact that he cheated but nobody deserves to be murdered.” Isabel says. “Yet you murdered more than one person.” “It’s revenge. I don’t believe in killing someone for revenge unlike my brothers. I prefer for them to suffer. Separating Shannon from her daughter and husband was just the first step.” “What makes you any different from Shannon!?” I scream. Thank God Leonard’s not at home right now. He told Isabel and I that he wanted to go do something important. “She killed out of jealousy, those who I’ve killed was never with my own hands-” “Really? Your convincing yourself that those deaths had nothing to do with you?” “They were merely collateral damage.” I start to laugh. “Isabel, are you even hearing yourself?” “Look, I don't have time for this. Why do I even bother?” She starts to move to the living room so I follow her and stand in

    Aurelia Elena disconnects the phone before we can respond to her. “You didn’t tell me you had a private jet.” I say. “That’s really what you want us to talk about right now after finding out Isabel’s a dickhead.” “We're honestly so dumb for believing her.” “Her story never added up. I just never thought anything about it because I didn’t think she’d have a hidden agenda. From the moment she said ‘one thing led to another and we blurted things about our lives out’ I should have known she was lying about how she and Shannon started talking.” “I know right. I know my mom, she’s not a lightweight and no matter how drunk she is she wouldn’t just go around telling just anyone that she killed a supposed king.” “Isabel must have met with Shannon and pretended to be her friend after telling her that she's Leonard and Rowan’s sister.” I say. “Can someone explain what’s going on?” Daniel says whilst biting his pizza. “Shut up Daniel.” Both Kane and I say at once. “We’re leaving, tr

    Kane picks me up bridal style and asks if I’ve ever gone skinny dipping. “What’s that?” “Basically swimming naked.” “Kane, we can’t do that right now I’m-” “Wet? I know.” “You're gross! This is Elena’s pool! We can’t just-” “Wrong, it’s my parents house remember.” “Since when did you consider her one?” “Well I still don’t consider her one but technically she still is.” I’ve been staring at him this whole time. I didn't even realize that we'd reached the pool till Kane threw me in it. By the time my head comes out of the water Kanes is already right in front of me. He picks my legs up and takes me to the edge of the pool. He leans in to kiss me but suddenly pulls away and stares at me like I had grown a pair of horns or alien eyes. Not minding his shocked stare I kiss him, moaning into his mouth as his lips moves slowly, I love how he lets me take control. My back is now touching the edge of the pool so I wrap my legs around his waist and take his hands and place the

    The moment we reach home from the airport, Elena rushes to me and hugs me. I hug her back and we both start to laugh for absolutely no reason. “I guess I wasn’t missed.” Kane says and takes our luggage in. “Oh please it’s not like you even cared about me whilst you were there.” Elena says. I roll my eyes at both of them. “I’m starving, tell me there’s food!” I say. “Kitchen.” I immediately rush there. I find Fried rice in a pot so I quickly dish it out on two plates for both I and Kane. I go back to the living room and see Kane and Elena talking to each other. It would have been normal but they seem so serious and their both sitting diagonally to each other on two different couches. I walk up to Kane and hand him his plate. I noticed they both got quiet when I got here. “Thank you love but I’m not hungry.” I look at him with a straight face and he immediately grabs a spoon and puts it in his mouth. “What are you guys discussing?” I ask whilst sitting next to Kane. “He’s

    My eyes have been shut this whole time that when I open them I realize none of this makes sense but I don’t even care. I get off him and kiss him so hard I’m sure I left a bruise somewhere. I finally allow us to breathe. “I’m so sorry baby.” I whisper whilst hugging him. “Shh..” he says and rubs my back. I step away and he wipes my tears. “I know you have many questions.” He says whilst holding my waist. I nod with snot probably coming out of my nose. “Ask.” He says. He’s trying to distract me. “How are you here.. the letter! Your silence on the phone? London?” I speak without thinking . “Michale called yesterday. He told me he didn’t want to tell me about your wedding but I told him we already met and you told me about it. He then told me it’s happening today but I still didn’t want to bother. I had concluded that I’d kill myslef the day you get married. So I was prepared until he told me the kind of danger you might be in and I immediately got on the plane. The only

    “I’m so sorry Leo.” I say but he ignores me and I can see his heart shattering. I know how much he loved his sister even though he loved to pretend otherwise. I then look at Luca who seems to be staring at Isabel like he’s in a trance. He’s not even crying. There’s not even tears. He’s just staring at her. I sit flat on the floor between the two dead bodies whilst the war outside is still happening so it’s not like I can go anywhere. Elena suddenly calls my name but I’m too shocked to look at her. She shows up in front of me and hands me the same envelope that mom gave her. I take it from her and open it. I look down first because I want to see who it’s from, this is not the time. I see the name Kane there and I immediately start to get the most painful headache ever. I close my eyes and I could swear I’m in a trance where all I’m seeing are memories. They're all coming back. Rune was my stepbrother. Leonard killed him. I loved Kane alot and I also loved Rune a lot. Emaine

    I sigh when I realize Michael and I have walked past half of the aisle and look up. I finally have eye contact with Leonard and the way he looks at me makes me want to drop my gaze back down. He looks amazing in his black suit. His hair is slicked back as well and he’s carved his beard. He’s staring at me like I’m the best thing he’s ever seen and that makes me smile. We finally reach the small stairs and Michael untangles his hand from mine. I see him glare at Leonard before he lets me go and I walk up the stairs. I stand right in front of Leonard. He's on the right side whilst I’m on the left. The priest is in the middle. My girls are behind me and vice versa with Leonard’s men. I so badly want to ask Shannon where Emaine is but I don’t think it’s appropriate. I hear some whispers whilst I’m up here but I can’t hear what their saying. Everyone sits down and I finally hear someone say that it’s not right for my mom to be here but the king's mother isn't. I snort and Leonard rai

    One week later I’ve been thinking about Kane and I’s conversation all day and my heart feels like it's exploding every time. I don’t know whether it’s the memories of my past that have been coming back lately but they are affecting the way I feel about this entire situation. Leonard decided to rush our wedding because he felt like something bad would happen in between. Apparently the rebels are angry at me for betraying them. they’ve started to riot again. I didn’t betray them but it sure as hell looks like I am now that I’m getting married to one of the revolution's enemies. They must be feeling the same way Michael feels. I would definitely try to find who is commanding them now that me, Michael and Luca are no longer there just so that I could talk to them and try to find a reasonable understanding or come to an agreement between one another to stop the violence and just let the wicked leaders lead. The people will handle it during the elections when they are choosing their own l

    I lean back in the seat, tracing the edge of the invitation card in my lap. It’s still strange, seeing my name next to Leonard’s in elegant, golden script. I went to see them today, to invite Michael, Elena, Shannon, and the others to the wedding. A part of me hoped they’d all be there, that maybe they’d want to share this with me. But every single one of them declined. Their rejections feel like tiny, sharp pinpricks, pressing deeper the more I think about it. As we slow at a red light, I glance out the window, watching people hurry across the street, faces blending into each other. Then I freeze. In the car beside me, a familiar face leans against the window, lost in thought—Kane. My heart skips. Without thinking, I lean forward and tap the driver’s shoulder. “Please, pull over. Right here.” He raises his eyebrows at me through the rearview mirror but nods, steering us to the curb. I roll down my window, sticking my hand out to catch Kane’s attention. “Kane!” I call softly, hop

    Everyone keeps congratulating me but for some reason I don’t even feel like this is real. Leonard told me he doesn’t want to waste much time on our wedding and I agreed so we’re getting married in a week. I decided to go to kanes place to tell Michael and the others. For some reason I can’t get Kane out of my mind….ever since he helped me that day by getting me away from that weird ass man in the library stuck with me and I haven't been able to thank him. I didn’t even thank him for trying to get to me the time that Leonard had kidnapped me. Leonard invited his hateful relatives for our engagement. Apparently the tradition is that they have to all come and dine with me, I refused to do so.. they came regardless but I wasn’t there to see them. Leonard had understood that I needed to leave so he let me go to kanes place which is where I’m heading now. He insisted that I take some of his guards so I did. I don’t know how Shannon, Michael, Elena, Luca and even Kane will take this news…

  • Obsessed with my billionaire stepbrothers    Kane

    Hearing that Aurelia was in love with Leonard was one thing but seeing it in her eyes did something to me. The moment we got home I didn’t speak to anyone no matter how much they tried to get me to speak. There’s no use for me to stay in Rome if the reason I’m here is clearly gone… I don’t want to give up but as long as she doesn’t have her memory back I have to leave. I decided to write her a letter, I hope that when she gets to read this her memory will be back. I’m presently packing. I'm going back to London. I don’t plan on getting talked out of this so I’m planning on going when everyone’s asleep besides Shannon, I'm going to give her the letter personally because I know she’ll deliver my message. I step out of my room silently and knock on her door a few times. She opens it whilst brushing her eyes with her hands. She looks like she hasn’t been sleeping… but she does look very tired. “Kane?” she asks, voice hushed. "What are you doing here? And...with a suitcase?" I st

    I sit in my room, the dim light casting shadows on the walls. My heart still races from the commotion downstairs. I expected my mother, Shannon, to leave with the rest of them, but she didn’t. She’s here. I hear her soft footsteps approaching before there’s a light knock on the door. “Aurelia, may I come in?” she asks, her voice gentle but firm, like always. “Yeah,” I whisper, unsure of what to expect. My fingers fidget in my lap as she steps in and closes the door behind her. She sits beside me on the bed, the mattress dipping slightly under her weight. There’s a brief silence as she studies me, her eyes soft but observant, the way a mother’s should be. I look away, my throat tight, already feeling the emotions bubbling up. I know what this is about. “I didn’t leave with the others because I needed to talk to you,” Shannon says, her voice soft but serious. She reaches out, taking my hand. Her touch is warm, familiar, and it instantly begins to break down the walls I’ve tried to

    I sit on the edge of the couch, my eyes scanning the room. Kane leans against the wall, arms crossed, his face unreadable. Shannon and Luca sit across from each other, both looking deep in thought. Elena is quiet, but I can feel her eyes on me, waiting. Emaine sits off to the side, her posture stiff, clearly uncomfortable. I clear my throat, trying to break the silence. "The revolution has been regrouping. We don’t know who their new leader is, but I have reason to believe they’re planning to take action soon." Kane uncrosses his arms, his lips curling into a grim smirk. “Let them. If their first plan is to kill Leonard, I’d be more than happy to let them.” Before I can respond, Shannon jumps in. "That’s not a good idea, Kane. Especially if Aurelia isn’t leading them anymore. They see her as a traitor. If they try to kill Leonard, they’ll go after her too." Her words hang in the air, and I can feel the tension rising. Luca’s phone suddenly rings, cutting through the weight of the
