The limousine pulled up out the front of the banquet hall where the fashion parade was being held. Vince steps out and opens the rear door for everyone to climb out of the back. Camera flashes were going off as Drake steps out and extends his hand to Leona with a smile before Lester does the same with Caitlyn. Followed by Jason with Rebecca, Jonathon with Matilda, Richard with Sandy and Vince helping Linda, Tiffany and Cheryl out.

Simone straightens her black and green full-length dress as Emmett leans over and kisses the side of her head. “Let’s head in; the others will catch up” Emmett whispers in Simone’s ear.

Simone nods, taking Emmett’s hand and beaming a smile as they were stopped for pictures momentarily.

“I want to call Aunty Leslie before it starts and make sure the twins are ok” Simone says as the group find a seat to the front of the runway.

“I already did” Linda voices behind her, sitting down in her seat. “They’ve been fed and are sleeping peacefully. Jakey is playing wit

    It’s been three years since Simone and Emmett were married. The pair had grown together over the time and the family got bigger with a new arrival six months ago; Lauren Josephine Peterson. Thankfully there was no surprises of a second baby during the delivery.“Are you ready for our special evening?” Emmett calls from the living room as Simone walks out in her bodysuit, dressed in an off the shoulder royal blue evening dress with a slit up the right side. “You always look stunning” he adds, giving her a peck on her temple.They were heading to the charity banquet for the local shelter for domestic violence. Cheryl helped establish it with the money given to her from Evelyn when she passed away. “Dad; we leaving shortly” Simone calls out as Phillip comes out of the playroom with Lauren in his arms and two three-year-olds hanging onto each leg. “Thank you for looking after them tonight” she adds.“You don’t have to thank me” Phillip beams, placing Lauren in the playpen and picking up e

  • Our Secret Identities   Chapter 1 – Heading to the Countryside

    Coming off the runway, I race into the dressing room to change. Sandy, a fellow model follows me in; “Leona; are you coming to the afterparty? I’m told the president of Peterson Properties son will be there. He is so cute.”‘He is also a narcissistic fuckwit. Like father; like son’ Simone mentions in her mind. “I can’t Sandy. I’m heading straight to the countryside tonight to visit my dad. I’ve been so busy with photo shoots in Milan and Paris; I haven’t been to see him. That’s why I’ve taken the next two months off” Simone informs her, taking off her high heels and slipping on a pair of jeans before letting the dress she was wearing fall off her. ‘If all goes to plan; I will be busy getting reacquainted with Emmett’ she smiles inwardly to herself.Once Simone got used to the prosthetic suit; no-one could tell the difference. It took a while to learn to swagger her walk for the catwalk. Once she did; she signed a manager and was surprised how fast her career took off.“It won’t be the

    In his office, situated in the business district; Drake Spencer is sitting behind his desk. Looking at a photo of the beautiful 9-year-old girl with Auburn hair he has loved all his life. “Finally, we will be together” he says, his lips curling into a smile on his tanned face; running his free hand through his dark hair. Changing it to a more recent photo emailed to him by Simone, his smile grows wider.“I had HR approve your employment as a journalist for In the Know Magazine. Is she worth all the trouble?” Lester Smith tells him, from the side of his office; looking at Emmett’s smile curiously. “Wouldn’t it be easier just to tell her who you are?”“No. She is marrying Emmett Peterson, not Drake Spencer. Just because we came back and built Lester Drake Media from the ground up; doesn’t mean she needs to marry him” Emmett says to his best friend and business partner. The pair share the CEO responsibilities. Emmett or Drake as he is known in the company, is the more serious CEO. Wherea

    “It’s not too late to change your mind, princess” Phillip says to his daughter; admiring her reflection in the mirror they were standing in front of. ‘I wish she would forget about the whole promise’ he includes to himself with a sigh.Turning to her father; “Dad; we’ve been over this” Simone answers him, holding back the tears forming in her eyes as she straightens his tie. “I need to do this. It’s for my benefit as much as it is for Emmett’s.”“I know, I know” Phillip states, holding out his arm for Simone to grab hold of. “We will be late if we don’t head over to the church now.”Walking out of her father’s house and sliding into the seat of an old Rolls Royce they hired; Simone pecks her father on the cheek. “Thanks Dad” she whispers as the car pulls onto the road for the small drive to the church. It was a small affair, only Phillip, Tiffany, Jenny, Vince and Sebastian; Jenny’s father was attending.Getting to the door of the chapel; Simone looks down at the alter and sees a fami

  • Our Secret Identities   Chapter 4 – Home, Sweet Home

    The small two-bedroom, two-bathroom bungalow came into view as Emmett turned down the street. It was at the end of a no through road; standing by itself. Unbeknownst to Simone; Emmett recently purchased the house a month prior and had been living there to not appear overly wealthy to her. He didn’t want any neighbours around, which made this house perfect for them.“Home, sweet home” Emmett exclaims, pulling into the driveway; watching Simone’s every reaction from the corner of his eye.Lifting her head to look through the front windscreen; “quaint little house” she says with a smile, opening the car door and heading to the trunk to grab her suitcase. ‘It looks very homely’ she adds to herself nervously.“Let me” Emmett says, grabbing the suitcase before shutting the trunk of the car and turning toward the front door. Before opening the door with his keys, a small playful smirk crosses his face.“What?” Simone questions, hesitant about what he was thinking.Placing the suitcase down b

    Waking up the next morning; the smell of bacon cooking wafted through the air. Coming out of his room, Emmett saw Simone slaving over the stove. “Good morning” he announces, taking a seat at the dining table.“You’re awake” Simone responds, placing three eggs into the frypan. “Mrs Walker always said a wife should cook for her husband because food is the way to a man’s heart.”‘You already have my heart’ Emmett says to himself; trying not to smile to show his satisfaction with her comment. “There was no need to trouble yourself” he responds to her. He only purchased the food two days prior to the wedding. Emmett prefers to eat out but decided to get some supplies in case she wanted to cook.“It’s ok; I was cooking some for myself. I figured I should cook some for you too” Simone explains, placing the bacon, eggs, toast, and mushrooms on the table for Emmett to help himself to some breakfast.“Thank you” he says, reaching out to grab her hand; before quickly retracting it again. ‘No; sh

    Walking casually through the mall to the Bedding store; Simone notices a few couples holding hands. Pausing a moment to contemplate if she should hold Emmett’s; ‘would he mind if I held his hand? We are married after all’ she questions herself.Deciding to just do it; Simone picks up her pace to catch up to Emmett, grabbing hold of his hand; “I only have short legs” she teases; slowing down his stride.Emmett looks down at her hand; a small smile caresses his face. “Sorry, I should have been more aware” he answers; not letting go of her any time soon. ‘This is better’ he injects inwardly.They walk into the Bedding store and promptly purchase the items Simone wanted to buy before heading back out; hand in hand. “Where to now?” Emmett asks her.“We could always go to the food court to get lunch” Simone suggests, looking at his reaction.‘Ugh’ he says to himself. Emmett was never fond of food from a food court. But as he was pretending to be a journalist and not a CEO; he agreed to her

    After putting her items away; Simone strolled out to the living room. She wanted to clarify with Emmett about their relationship and marriage. ‘I hope he is willing to take things slow. As it is; I have never actually been in a relationship before’ she says inwardly to herself.As she approached the living space; her phone suddenly goes off. “Is that Tiff? I need to chat with her about a few things” she asks Emmett, sitting on the sofa.“Who is Bartholomew?” he questions, looking at the caller on her phone from the coffee table. ‘She is my wife. Why would she have another man calling her’ he adds in his mind; jealousy enraging him.Simone’s face turns pale as the call goes to voicemail and a missed call message pings on her phone. “Umm…” she begins. ‘How can I explain about Bart to Emmett? He isn’t wanting me; he wants me to talk to Leona.’Just as she was about to continue; her phone goes off again. Answering the call this time; Simone screams down the phone. “What do you want?” ‘Eas

    It’s been three weeks since the twins decided to arrive; giving Emmett and Simone a surprise of a lifetime. Simone was let out of the hospital two days later. Stacey wanted to make sure the twins didn’t need any additional medical help. Given Linda was their nanny; she was for happy for her to take them home when she did.Tiffany had reported to Simone every evening what was going on at the agency. In Simone’s opinion it was so she could see the babies. Robert wasn’t the only model to have been offered a contract overseas. Suzie’s contract was renewed to go to Australia for their fashion week the following year and Trent will be joining her. Kimberley was given a contract to go to China, while Lewis will be heading to the Milan fashion week in Italy.The Next Fashion Designer was coming to a close and Lively Design Studio’s made the final with Giovanni Boutiques and Le Boutique. “Leslie and Barry are going to look after Jake and the twins while we head to the fashion show tonight for

    Tiffany walks through the door of the birthing suite. Seeing the little bundle in Emmett’s arms, she walks over to him. “There’s my little goddaughter” she coos, taking her from Emmett.“Hmm-hmm” Simone sounds, clearing her throat for Tiffany to look at her. She glances up and sees the second baby attached to Simone’s breast. Her mouth gapes open as she glances between the two babies.“Twins? When the fuck were you going to tell us?” Tiffany whisper shouts at Simone. “And why didn’t you tell me you were in labour and heading to the hospital?”“I couldn’t tell you about this one because I didn’t know. This little man decided he wanted to stay hidden. The amnio results were taken from Isabella’s fluid sac since his was behind hers” Simone whisper shouts her explanation back to Tiffany, who starts smiling and cooing at Isabella. “As for being in labour; I didn’t get a chance to tell you. I called Emmett to let him know my waters broke and before I knew it; he was carrying me to the car.”

    Emmett raced to the hospital with Simone protesting beside him to slow down. ‘I knew it wasn’t Braxton Hicks this time’ Emmett fumes in his mind. “Slow down, Emmett” she says again, pulling him out of his thoughts.He looks over to her and beams a smile in her direction; “we are going to meet our little girl” he says as another contraction hits Simone and she screams out in pain. “We are almost there” he whispers in a hushed tone.He pulls up out of the emergency department. Linda is waiting out the front with a wheel chair for them to arrive. “You called Linda?” he asks as she nods and tries to breathe through another contraction.“How far apart are the contractions?” Linda asks Emmett.He gives her a blank stare; “I was a bit preoccupied, trying to get her to the hospital; I forgot to time them. If I was to guess, they are 2-3 minutes apart” he tells her.“And her waters broke while she was on the phone to me. Let’s get her up and see how far along she is” Linda states as Emmett pus

    Sitting at her desk; Simone started fidgeting as she glanced at the doorway, hoping Cheryl, Vince, Tiffany, Jonathon and Matilda would walk through. “Calm down” Emmett states, running his hands through his hair as he sat on the sofa. “You decided to let Cheryl and Tiffany go to the runway show and be pleasantly surprised at the clothes tomorrow night.” They decided not to tell Emmett the real reason behind not going to the production warehouse for the final and gave him the excuse she wanted to be pleasantly surprised. It was a good thing too, since the day at the hotel with Alexandro; she had been getting Braxton Hicks contractions every couple of days.“I know” Simone murmurs, walking out from behind her desk and taking a seat next to Emmett on the sofa. “I’m nervous because I’m not there to stop Alexandro for doing or saying anything to Jonny.”“He wouldn’t be game with Vince or Tiff there” Emmett chuckles, putting his arms around her and pecking the side of her head. Emmett pulls

    Over the next few weeks; to Simone’s surprise, Alexandro stayed away from her when she went to the warehouse for the production. Holly and Quintin confirmed he hadn’t been asking questions about her or her relationship with Emmett anymore. ‘Maybe he has finally gotten the hint’ she says to herself.Emmett had made an effort to get to know Albert for the time he was in Rocky Valley and both decided to keep in touch. “I’m glad you and Al could become friends” Simone says to Emmett in the bedroom as she steps into her green maternity dress to get ready to head over to the production warehouse. “He really is a great guy.”“Ehh” Emmett voices with a shrug of his shoulders, causing Simone to giggle at his attempt to downplay his friendship with an old school colleague. “Are you and Vince taking Jonny in today?”“Yes” Simone replies, putting her watch on her wrist and looking at the time. “He should be heading up any…” she didn’t get to finish her sentence when they heard the knock on the do

    Albert had left the room to head down to the lobby. He had mentioned to Adam before walking out the door to make sure the ladies were safe; one thing he was certain of, Alexandro wasn’t to be trusted with them. He had a feeling Simone’s comment to the hotel receptionist; Emmett would be notified of their whereabouts and would be there soon. He wanted to explain his involvement before it got out of hand.He barely made it out of the elevator before Emmett ran through the front door; stopping dead and folding his arms in front of him with a smirk on his face. “Why am I not surprised; he had you kidnap my wife” Emmett spits at the man in front of him.Albert’s eyes widen with Emmett’s statement before composing himself again. Leona only told him Emmett wasn’t her brother; he didn’t know any other details. “What kidnapping?” Albert states; glaring back at Emmett as two more men walk through the doorway to stand behind him. “They came freely and Leona gave you a message she was ok on the s

    Caitlyn and Simone were shocked they were ushered into a waiting vehicle out the back of the supermarket. Because of this, Simone was inwardly cursing herself for leaving Sandy and Cheryl without giving them an explanation on what was happening. She was even more annoyed both of them had left their handbags in the trolleys so she couldn’t message Emmett what was going on and tell him she was ok; ‘hopefully he will see the camera footage and know they were fine’ she tells herself.“We should have bought our bags with us” Caitlyn giggles, trying to lighten the mood with a joke. She too was annoyed she didn’t think it would be more than two minutes to go out the back to talk. Seeing Simone wasn’t amused by her comment; Caitlyn turns her attention to the men in the front seat. “Al; we understand he can’t leave and everything. Why is it important for him to see us?”The chestnut brown-haired man driving, looked at the two women behind him in the rearview mirror. He didn’t say anything exce
