The AftermathSilas Rhys Enzo's Point of ViewA soft ‘hmm’ woke me up. I opened my eyes when I realized that it is still dark, I reach for the side table to open my lamp to light up the whole room. I turned my gaze back to Evie who was still sound asleep next to me.She nuzzled closer to me which made me smile. I don't know but I'm enjoying this. I adjusted the thick blanket that covered us.I thought she would leave me like the ones I hear when it comes to one-night stands. But I was lucky because Evie didn’t run away from me. I stared at her and I couldn’t help but be amazed at how stunning she was.She and I are in my bed, I love it. I'm starting to enjoy her presence but I still can't move on from what happened last night. To be honest, she's my first and I didn't regret it.I may be a playboy but I don't f*ck my girls because I have my own belief that I will just surrender myself to the woman I love. It may sound gay but that's me.But Evie broke my belief. Rules can be broken, h
The MeetingElla Victoria Everette's Point of ViewIs it a sin to fall with a minor? I don't know but when a man gave me a gesture like this, he touches my heart. I don’t know but I can fall fast. I just shook my head at what I was thinking. He pulled a chair for me to sit and I did.I just smiled and thanked him. He just smiled at me and sat across from me. I looked at what he cooked, he prepared a hotdog and an egg omelet."Let's eat," I looked at Rhys when he said that. Just like he said, we ate. I took a bite of his omelet while looking at him. He was watching me and probably, waiting for my comment about his cooking skills.I can say that he's a great cook and I didn't expect him to be this good. As I tasted the omelet, I can't help but be amazed. It's the best egg omelet I ever tasted. Did he dream about being a Chef? If not, then he should've been one. It's his thing to be a Chef."How was it?" Rhys later spoke. I just smiled and gave him a thumbs-up which he smiled too. After
Stepson Ella Victoria Everette's Point of View My eyes widened when I saw Rhys. I blinked a few times because I thought I was just dreaming but I wasn't. I mean, is he Soren's son? No way! This can't be! I must be dreaming. There's no way that I can accept Rhys as my stepson! I've just had sex with my stepson, oh gosh, what should I do? I thought I would never see him again but this destiny is playing tricks on me. I looked at Soren who was also looking at me. He then held my hand. "Are you okay? You're trembling," he spoke. I held his hand and removed my hand from his grasp. I mean, if Rhys is his son, then he's my stepson. He's Rachel's son! Oh gosh, what a mess did I enter? This is all my fault. I shouldn't have initiated 'it'. Some of me regret what happened but some I liked. I just sighed and realized that it already happened. "Babe, I'm worried. Please talk," Soren then stated. I bit my lower lip and I calmed myself. "I-Is he your son? What's his name?" I asked him. I nee
Meeting Silas Rhys Enzo's Point of View I didn't bother to dress well because Dad said that I can wear anything I want. Honestly, I was nervous to get to know Dad’s wife and his family. Even though I knew that they would accept me, I still couldn't control my worry. Dad texted me that he and his wife would pick me up here at my condo so I immediately waited outside. Eventually, a car stopped near my condo. I saw the door open and Dad came out of it. Then he approached me and we smiled at each other. He hugged me so I hugged him back too. "How are you, son?" He asked as he parted in a hug. "I'm fine, Dad," I replied with a smile. Dad then guided me to his car and a familiar woman came out of it. She then greeted us with a smile. I then realized that it was Evie. Impossible, it is not possible. When our eyes met, she averted her gaze. What now? Is she my Dad's wife? Evie is his wife? What a coincidence? When we got close to her, I couldn't help but observe what she was wearing. M
The Talk Ella Victoria Everette's Point of View After buying some clothes and bags at Valerie's boutique, we decided to order a frappe at Frappe Alley on the ground floor. Good thing, that there are six vacant chairs here at Frappe Alley. Frappe Alley is located beside the escalator. I can assure you that they make a delicious frappe. This stall became famous because of it. Their best seller is the Pistachio Creme Frappuccino which has a cherry on top. I can say that it’s really delicious because we go back and forth. I can drink this all of my life. We were then seated on a vacant chair and a waiter attended us to get our orders. "As usual, 6 Pistachio Creme Frappuccino, large," Suzy said and the waiter nodded. Then he excused himself from us and headed to the counter. "So," Tasia began as we were waiting for our orders so we looked at her. Teasingly, Tasia looked at me causing my eyebrows to rise. "Who's better in bed?" Tasia asked as they laughed. I felt my whole body sudde
Punch Ella Victoria Everette's Point of View Soren started to caress my back until I'm feeling okay from the choke. I heaved a deep sigh and thanked him because of it. Eventually, he removed his hand from behind me then Soren met my eyes. "Are you okay?" He asked while his eyes were darting with concern. I just nodded at him and slightly smiled. I was really surprised by what he said. I mean, he has a business trip and Rhys and I are the only ones who will be left here at home. I don't even know how I tend to live with the man I had a one-night stand with, how much more if he and I will be the only ones left here once Soren will go out of town? "As I said, I have a business trip to New York, babe. I will be away for three weeks and tomorrow is our flight," Soren proceeded. I just nodded at him and sighed. Well, I can't do anything about it because it's his business. So he will be gone for three weeks? Why is it so long? I will be with Rhys for three weeks! Not that I don't want
Assembly MeetingElla Victoria Everette's Point of ViewMy eyes widened when I saw Rhys beat the man who said that. I covered my lips when I saw that Rhys had cornered him and was relentlessly beating him.I don't know but I think that kid deserves it. I honestly don't pity him. He is probably not happy with his life because they're busy discussing other's life, it's disrespectful. I'll make sure that he will pay. Indeed, if gossip were good, many people would be overweight."Don't you ever disrespect and insult her in front of me!" Rhys shouted making me flinch. Now all the attention is on them. The others begged them to stop but Rhys was as deaf as if he didn't hear it so I took action. I immediately pulled him by the arm to stop him but he didn’t want to stop.I took a deep breath and hugged him on the waist. I need to stop him as soon as possible, or else, the man he's beating right now will be unconscious and I don't want Rhys to be in trouble."Stop, Rhys. Enough," I calmly spok
ConfessionSilas Rhys Enzo's Point of View"It's not impossible that Rhys can't handle that. If my stepmother is that beautiful and sexy, she might have reached heaven with me a few times."My jaw abruptly clenched because of what I have just heard. My temper sparked as rage pulsed through my veins and one thing I knew, I was already punching Hanz. I didn't mind my schoolmates and Evie who was watching us and just resuming punching him."Don't you ever disrespect and insult her in front of me!" I shouted at him as I felt a flicker of irritation. I don't tolerate disrespect. A woman bought you into this world, therefore you have no right to disrespect one.What I don’t like at all is being rude to women, especially when it comes to Evie. What more could I not have missed if Evie was the one he was going to fuck. I'm not a violent person but when it comes to Evie, I can be a violent person.I ignored my bleeding knuckles and just punch Hanz but not until Evie hugged me to stop. I don't
Ella Victoria Everette's Point of View As I expected, we arrived at exactly 12:00 AM. We went straight to my parents' mansion. Kye helped me carry my sleeping twins on the trip. He was carrying Reed and I was carrying Rhian. We entered the mansion and Dad Ramon and Mom Lena are also there. "My great-grandchildren are really cute," Mom Lena spoke while staring at my twins. None of my own made me smile at what she said. Mom accompanied me to the twins' room on the second floor. A door opened and a pastel cream wall paint and two beds were ready for twins to welcome me. I slowly laid Rhian down on the pink bed and Reed on the blue. I kissed Reed and Rhian on their forehead and glanced at Kye. "Thank you, Kye," I said and Kye looked at me and smiled. Eventually, he said goodbye to us. I took a deep breath and watched my children sleep soundly. "What are your plans now, dear?" I looked at Mom when she asked that. "They want to know their father, Mom. I also have no right to deny th
Silas Rhys Enzo's Point of View Five Years Ago After I beat Hanz, we were called to the Directress' Office to discuss what had happened. Madam Degracia told me that I must ask Hanz for forgiveness because of what I did. I clenched my jaw and my hands balled into a fist. He should ask forgiveness from me first. How dare he insult Evie? He disrespects Evie and he deserved it. I won't say sorry to him, not ever. "Once you ask forgiveness to Benji, we won't expel you nor stained your clean record, Rhys," said Madam Degracia I slowly opened my clenched fist. If my record is dirty, I may have problems when I enroll in college because I need a good moral certificate. Even if it was against for me to apologize to Hanz, I would still do it for my future. I want Evie to be proud of me with our child being proud of me. "I'm sorry Hanz, It won't happen again," I spoke while looking directly into Hanz's eyes. He just nodded at me and talk. "I'm sorry too, Rhys. I cross the line. I shouldn't
Ella Victoria Everette's Point of View Having something forbidden is exciting. Forbidden love provides happiness when there is no happiness. They say that an affair is thrilling. They are correct, proven, and tested. Then I met Rhys, my husband's son. He got me with his playful touch and when I fell in love, things are not meant for us. I love how gentle he is and caring. Maybe, that's the reason why I fell for him. I was just enjoying that night without the thought of spending a night with a man but Rhys approached me. He had a face that I can't resist. That night, I made the sweetest reckless decision I've ever done. There is a charm about forbidden that makes it unspeakably desirable. No matter how I avoid it, I can't avoid my feelings for Rhys. I heard that sometimes in life, you have to let go of things that are not meant for you, no matter how wonderful those may be or how deeply you loved them. It's not important to do it gracefully, respectfully, and with remarkable dignit
Left Ella Victoria Everette's Point of View Hearing those words broke my heart into pieces. Because of me, Rhys' life might be ruined and I don't like those thoughts. I couldn’t help but sob as I stared at Rhys who was talking to Madam Degracia. I felt a hand touch my left shoulder. "Let's go, Evie," Tasia then spoke and escorted me to enter the SUV. We entered and closed the door. Suzy drove the SUV and left in front of Hearthstone Academy. Because of what I had witnessed earlier, I could not help but think that because of me, his education would be ruined. No university will accept him if his record is that bad. I don't want that to happen. He must finish his studies for his future. Soon the SUV stopped and I looked outside. We're here at Haven's condo. Tasia opened the door and we came out. We got into Haven’s condo and they sat me on the sofa. Haven poured cold water into the glass and handed it to me. "You need to calm down, Evie. You're pregnant," Tasia reminded me as I tur
Insults Silas Rhys Enzo's Point of View I was happy when Evie told me that she was pregnant with my child. Contentment spread through my body knowing that I will become a father soon. It made me want to study harder so that my child will have a good future. I promised myself that I will study hard, for them and for my future. They're my inspiration now to study harder. I don't want them to starve with me. When my Dad and Evie's parents visited us, I felt a bit scared that time but I need to be strong for us. They're so scary when they're mad. But even so, I'm thankful that the conversation didn't go down well. I could do nothing but hug Evie so she would know I was just here and I wouldn’t leave her no matter what happens. I love her so much. I know that they're many ladies that had the same age as mine but I didn't get attracted to them, only to Evie. It was only with her that I felt this way. I’m happy because Evie loves me too. That's enough for me, though. When they left, Dad
CravingsElla Victoria Everette's Point of ViewAfter a few minutes of traveling, we arrived at Neo Culture Heights. The village is spacious and impressive. I'm so proud of the owner of this village because it was so done beautifully. The security is just fine for us. We came out of the taxi and the taxi driver opened the trunk and took our luggage out.Rhys paid the fare and the taxi driver vanished into our sight. I then immediately wonder my eyes around the surroundings. It's clean and some flowers were beautifully arranged on each side of the driveway. It has just a few houses situated remotely from one another.The house has all the same size, it's all a two-story house. On the other side are terraced fields in which grow flowers and plants of attractive and bright hue. This village is a paradise. One more thing, the whole village is quiet.Rhys had already opened the gate of our house and I entered first as I dragged my luggage. I can see that this house is already clean after R
Far Away Ella Victoria Everette's Point of View Time will heal the pain. Maybe not today and maybe not tomorrow; but one day it will all go away. Sometimes it takes a wrong turn to get you to the right place. "Calm down, my dear," Mom Lena blurted out. "How can I calm down?! This mess happened!" I flinched when Dad Ramon's thunderous voice echoed all throughout the four corners of the mansion. I was just sobbing in Rhys's arms. I'm tired of crying that's why I stopped. I sniffles quietly and wiped the tears on my cheeks. "Drink some water, my lady," Rhys suddenly spoke. I moved away from him a little and I took a glass of water in his hand and drank it. When I drank all of it, I handed the glass to Rhys again and he placed it on the center table. Rhys met my eyes and gave me a smile. I just gave him a tight smile and heaved a sigh. Slowly Mom sighed as she looked at me as if she was hurting for me. Her eyes are pained but she still manages to give me a smile. I just smiled at he
Confrontation Silas Rhys Enzo's Point of View "Bro, did you see the news?" We are in the middle of eating a snack when Mark approached me. I stopped eating the sandwich and turned to him. He smiled at me and showed me the screen of his phone. My eyes dilated when I saw what was written in the article. It's about Dad, Mom, Evie and me. The public knew about our secret affair. "Is it true?" Hendery then asked. I just nodded at him which made them gasp. There's no point in keeping it a secret because an article was posted about our affair. I sighed and focused on eating my sandwich. I munch the sandwich with my mouth closed as I took a drink of my soda. "Evie is pregnant with my child," I noticed that Johnny let go of the soda he was holding because of what I said. I just averted my eyes and drank the soda again. "Seriously?! Wow! You're speed, bro," Ten couldn't believe what he had just heard from me as those in the cafeteria turned to us. I just sighed and didn’t utter a word. "
ScandalElla Victoria Everett's Point of View"Okay fine, I'm here because I'm pregnant with Soren's child," she coolly answered which made us gasp. What the, she's pregnant too? And with Soren's child? What's this? I mean, if she's pregnant with Soren's child, then they had an affair too? What I mean is they shared a night together but for me, that was considered an affair.I don’t know but it suddenly reduced the problem I was carrying. I mean, Soren and I both had an affair. We both cheated, oh gosh. Now, I'm pregnant with Rhys' child and Rachel is pregnant with Soren's child. So, I think we're fair? The only difference is that Rhys is still a minor and Rachel is at the right age, it seems like we are the same age."Are you sure?" No one spoke to us when Soren asked Rachel that question. Soren was probably making sure that Rachel was indeed pregnant. Rachel's mouth hung open at what she heard. She doesn't seem to believe what Soren asked. Later on, she grinned. "Of course! This is
