Eggust’s Pov

Sylvester Fleming was known worldwide for his good looks and he bathed in people's adoration of him. I, on the other hand, couldn't stand his arrogance. He was born rich and spoilt rotten and we both knew that the company flourished better under my guidance and rule but as he liked to play pretend in public, he told everyone who cared to listen that he had taught me everything I knew.

He wished. When he came back to play father figure, after all those years he left, it just fueled me with even more anger. And mum, the way she acted like everything was normal, like he didn’t abandon her when she told him she was pregnant, like he didn’t treat her awfully.

I hated the way she welcomed him with open arms, she expected me to also act like everything was okay, but I just couldn’t.

All those nights I had seen her cry, losing her friends, her family because of me, all the jobs she had to do to cater for our needs, everything came rushing in as soon as the bastard c

    Juss’s Pov When I woke up at first, I was so sure that I would see him beside me, probably with me chained to my bed but I was wrong. Instead, I found myself back in another room. An apartment that he had paid for me which I found out only when I spotted the note on the desk beside my bed. Hello, Juss, I know you’d rather do this on your own, I know you don’t want me around either. I can’t promise to stay away from you, I don’t think I can ever do that again, but I will give you some space for now to figure out things. I am sorry for ruining everything, I am sorry for fucking trying to make your life as fucked up as mine. But I’ll have you know that you and the baby are the best things that has ever happened to me. If you need anything, give me a call…. Love, Eggust. I felt a throbbing pain in my heart as I read his letter, as tears began to form soon enough and the questions began to flood in as well. Was I being unreasonable? Did I care too much about what other people t

    Juss’s Pov “You have to go see her, she has been worried about you,” Eggust said on the other end. “I can’t, I’m pregnant for her son.” I yelled back. “It’s alright, Juss, you’re not showing yet, just put up an act, she wouldn’t notice.” “Yeah, whatever.” I said, as I hung up on him. Why the hell did he want me to do and see his mum? Why wasn’t he understanding my situation? Marlani had suspected I was pregnant, even before I had the slightest clue, I’m pretty sure she would know as soon as she sees me in her house. Ever since Eggust couldn’t keep his mouth shut and told her that I had returned, Marlani had been asking me to come over. Although, I totally understood her, I had left on short notice. I owed her a proper explanation for leaving like that, but I wasn’t ready. I wasn’t ready to face her or anyone else. However, this time, I didn’t have a choice. I had to see her sooner or later. I didn’t want to go to her place because I couldn’t risk seeing him

    Hera’s Pov As I walked into the bar, I tried to keep my head down so I wouldn't be seen but I had not gone further than five steps before I heard a voice snap, "And where the fuck have you been?" The words sent a wave of Nostalgia through me. There was only one person whom I knew that spoke to me in that manner, and she was the reason I came back here. But he was the reason for what I was about to do. I raised my head up and stared at her. Rita was a forgotten wanna-be bitch that knew she was growing older and unwanted so tried her hardest to make everyone around her a living hell. And she was beginning to target me the most. She pointed a finger at me from behind the bar she stood at and said, "You keep acting like you are special. Seems like you wanna go back to the streets, don't you?" I was never in the streets to begin with, I just happened to be a victim of failed promises. I was abandoned by the one person I cared about. The one person I thought I meant

    Juss’s Pov Someone was trying to hurt me. As much as I wanted to blame it on the pregnancy hormones or my regular paranoia. I couldn’t shake the feeling off. Something was off, I could tell, I didn’t know what it was, but I knew something was off. And as a mother, my first instinct would always be to protect my child. I knew I could get dramatic, and a little jumpy as well. It was a naturally well-known characteristic of someone who was used to hiding and never being seen but it had seemed as if the time I had spent in his sight and the bump was doing something to me and making me more keen on my surroundings than usual. For example, I knew someone was following me a week ago, and I could sense that whatever feelings they held towards me wasn't exactly friendly. I had tried to brush it off at first. No one could have any angry or vengeful feelings against me and the only other person who had potentially any reasons to want to follow me around was Eggust, but somehow,

My mind scrambled while l tried to comprehend what he was accusing me of, or what he felt he had the right to accuse me of. “Whatever do you mean?” I asked, my voice quivering slightly. “Don’t try to play dumb with me, Juss,” He shot back, his voiced laced with frustration. “I hate it when people try to downplay my intelligence. I saw you going through his Facebook.” “Firstly, you do not own me, Eggust Flemming. Secondly, I do not owe you any explanation, I am not your property, you cannot—-“ “You are carrying my fucking child, Juss. You belong to me, you and that baby in your womb belong to me. So think twice before you do something like that again.” He clamored, storming out of the room and slamming the door behind him. If I didn’t have any solid reason t

    Eggust's POV “What do you mean she’s not in her class?” I hurled at Derek, one of my most experienced security guards, who was in charge of watching Juss. Without going to her office to confirm, I knew without a single doubt that Juss had not come to school today. When she was around, even the air was different. It smelt like Christmas and pure joy mixed together. But right now, the air smelt like despair and sadness. She still hadn't called me or reached out in anyway. But that had been acceptable because I could still see her at school, but now ........... Was she still so mad at me that she would skip work just to avoid me? She loved her job! It was all she ever talked about. Or maybe she was feeling ill due to my baby. The thought made me smile. I was going to have a baby with Juss Indigo! I had never imagined my life would turn out to be like this: having a child with the only woman I’ve ever loved. She was my soulmate. “Maybe my baby gave her severe mornin

    Juss’s Pov After spending the last two days in a shitty hotel, I was glad to move into my new apartment, which was quite small. It wasn’t so different from the hotel I had been in, also might not be an ideal place to raise a child, but it was a little upgrade and would make do for now. I hadn't expected to get one so soon, before now, I hadn’t been to Manchester, I didn’t know what to expect. So when the agent called to say that there was a space available, I jumped at the offer. I tried my best to keep an open mind coming here, I just needed a fresh start. It didn't matter to me when he said it was small or not very upscale. I didn't mind. It was a place I could call home. It turned out that the previous owner had suddenly moved out due to an emergency so the place was available. My thoughts drifted to the apartment Eggust had gotten for me. The new owner would probably think he had struck gold because I suddenly moved out. That was if Eggust would agree to let someone e

    Eggust’s Pov. It's been five days and I still had no lead on Juss' whereabouts. It was either my men were practically useless or Juss had gotten better with her hiding games. Either way, I was getting impatient, I needed her back here as soon as possible. She wasn’t safe out there by herself. Juss had no family besides my mum and I, she barely had friends too. I had a list of all her friends, it was just my mum and some woman in Mexico. Or did she go back to Mexico? That should have been on the top of their search list. I retrieved my phone from my pocket and dialed Mendez’s number. He’s a PI based in Mexico, I used his help earlier when I was searching for Juss. It didn’t take him long before he found her then. And soon enough, I had all the details on her. I paced nervously, phone gripped tightly in my hand as it rang. I had to find Juss, the only hope I had was Mendez, if she was in Mexico. He didn’t pick up after two rings, with shaky fingers, I dialed his numb

I did my morning oblations in the bathroom then came to sit by his bedside till about noon when the second maid would come with lunch, then I'd go home, change and come back.The doctors tried their best to assure me he would be fine, but when your loved one was in a coma, it was difficult to have good thoughts. Grandfather’s dream replayed on my mind over and over again. I almost found myself begging him to let Sylvester go. It wasn’t his time yet. I was on the verge of giving up. The only thing that had kept me sane was talking, and talking I did.I went on to tell him about everything!Things that were happening in the world and in my life, hoping he would wake up and ask any questions but he never did.There was nothing I did not do.I cried.I prayed.I got angry at him.I begged.I appealed to him but nothing seemed to work.He just d

My housekeeper said to me very early this morning.I couldn't understand how the day was so bright when I felt so gloomy.Today, we were holding a funeral for my father in law! His death still felt surreal, he was such a pillar and leader. Yes, he was gruff and grumpy and even mean occasionally, but generally, he had been a wonderful person.Nature had to show respect and join in the mourning!!!I smiled sadly to myself as I realized the impossible and crazy thoughts I was having."What has come over you Marlani?"I guessed it was panic. A really big one.Grandfather had been the only one who had kept the family together and now that he was gone, I didn't know what would happen to us.No one was capable of or willing to fill his shoes. Sylvester had changed, but I had doubts he could fill in grandfather’s shoes. Eggust was still mad at everyone for what we did to Juss, though he tolerated us because of her, he still held grudges.

    Juss’ Pov Today was the final court hearing for Hera’s case, I was already getting frustrated with the way the case was going. They had all the evidence, why did they still need to have multiple hearings, just to prove that Hera was really guilty?Her cohorts had already confessed to their crimes, it took a little push from Ezekiel to get them to all turn against Hera. They were released and asked to pay a fine because they were her accomplices. But her charges were more, as the mastermind.It was funny how a harmless looking person like Hera, was responsible for my dilemma. She didn’t even look like someone who would go as far as opening an anonymous account just to ruin my life. Yet, I felt pity for her. She was just a woman who fell in love with the wrong person. Her obsession with Eggust had driven her to do all of those things. I was this close to begging Eggust to drop the charges, but I held back when I realized I wasn’t the only one she put through trauma. Eggust suffered

    Juss’ PovAs I slowly opened my eyes, the haze of sleep began to clear, and I was met with the sound of faint chatter. My motherly instincts immediately kicked in, and I scanned the room for my babies. My mind relaxed as I spotted them safely in the arms of Eggust and Marlani. She had been a different person since I gave birth. Two days ago, she even offered me a heartfelt apology. Of course I forgave her, but that didn’t stop the awkwardness between us from lingering. I was grateful she cared about Oscar and Elaine though. It still felt like yesterday, even though it had been a whole week since I had my babies. I was to be discharged today and Sylvester had made arrangements for us to stay in grandfather’s house, as per his request.Grandfather was the first person to notice I had woken up. "Ah, Juss, you're awake," he said, drawing others attention to me. His voice was weak but filled with love.I tried to sit up, but my vision started to blur, a wave of dizziness washed over me,

    Marlani…I found myself in my car, a couple of hours after Sylvester left, driving towards Eggust’s house. I couldn’t bear the feeling of guilt that gnawed at me. His house was a few miles away from here, so it took me some time to get there. When I got to the front door, I heard some noises coming from the living room. I recognized the voices as Sylvester’s Juss’ and Eggust’s.Sylvester was here? what was he doing here?There was a bit of scuffle, Sylvester and Juss were not exactly in an argument, Eggust would definitely not allow it. But they went back and forth. Sylvester accused Juss of hating him and being the reason why I never gave him a chance to redeem himself. While Juss insisted she was only trying to protect me. She knew what he did to me, and didn’t want me to go through something like that again. Eggust only interrupted when Sylvester’s voice got louder. He repeated the same words “careful dad, I will not let you insult my fiancée in our house.”“Our house?”They wer

    Sylvester’s Pov I got into my car, turned on the engine and drove to god-knows-where. I had nowhere in particular I thought of going to, I just knew I wanted to be as far away as possible. Not because I was mad at Marlani for what she said, ‘cause truthfully I deserved it.Instead, I was mad at myself, for thinking I could offer an apology, show her how much I’ve changed and the effort I’m putting in to make sure our relationship is better, then she would accept me again, and helplessly fall in love with me. That didn’t only make me a jerk, but completely delusional as well. But did she have to do it immediately though? After our moment of wild sex. Couldn’t she have just waited until tomorrow or the day after then?My grip on the steering was firmer. A car tried to overtake me, but I was too focus on my anger to notice that. Due to his frustration, the driver honked at me, cursing as he was finally able to.I yelled back in frustration, flipping the driver my middle finger. My knuc

    Marlani After the meeting with Eggust’s grandfather, Sylvester drove me back to his penthouse. We hadn’t really talked about the day, which I was thankful for, it was a sour topic and the last thing I wanted was to be vulnerable around Sylvester. Things were much better now that we were living together, than they were in the last twelve years. Sylvester worked from home and barely left the house, unless he wanted to buy groceries, which was weird, because he never went to the grocery store himself. At first, I thought it was because of a lady, perhaps a new fling he was hooked on. But after his constant requests for me to join him, I realized he was doing it all to please me. Sylvester Flemming, doing everything in his power to be called a better husband? Who would have thought? Certainly not me. I just finished making breakfast and was setting the table, when I heard footsteps approaching, I turned around to see Sylvester sauntering down the stairs. He flashed me a warm smile as
