Isabelle's POV
I paced around the hall and dialed Bryan's phone for the hundredth time if I was counting. Where the hell did he take his ass to?
“Erm…when did you say he's coming? We want to know when the party is starting so…yunno…” James is such an annoying human being.
Shit, where the fuck is Bryan. Everyone is here. I have Alex, Bruno, Eric…all my mates from school are here and now, I can't find Bryan.
It's a few minutes to midnight and everyone stood there, drinking and eating. Some were kissing and stripping themselves in the darker corners of the hall.
“Isabelle?”
I turned and came in contact with Davis. Long lost boyfriend. I cleared my throat and adjusted my gown. “It's been a while, I guess.”
“It's been six years, four months, and two days.” he checked his wristwatch and continued, “...and about right hours.
Danielle's POVI rolled on the soft surface where I lay. Slowly, I opened my eyes and found myself in this weird luxurious room. I rubbed my eyes and found Ella right beside me.I sighed in relief. At least, now I'm sure nothing is wrong with her. I kissed her forehead and went to the window. I took a deep breath as the sun kissed my skin.Never again do I want to encounter a day like yesterday. Are we still in the hospital? It seemed like it. All the medical stuff was still on Ella's body.Looking at the state she is in makes me regret getting closer to Bryan. Being close to him is very dangerous and I didn't think it could affect my kids.On the table next to some flowers was a picnic basket with a handwritten letter. It says:I figured you love pizza. It's my mother's recipe.Bigger UncleAn involuntary smile appeared on my face. That wasn't planned. I opened the basket and foun
Danielle"S POV “Who do you think is behind this, do you think it's Isabelle?” Clara asked me. My hands turned into fists upon hearing her name but it couldn't be her. “ I doubt it is. She doesn't know about my kids and if she did, why strike now?” Clara nodded slowly acknowledging my thoughts. “Indeed. Girl, why do you keep having enemies? I thought you'd be over this since high school.” “I thought so too Clara, I thought so.” She chewed on a cotton candy with an angry face making her look like Tom when Jerry got off his grip. “I’d find them and make them know what I can do!” she stomped on the ground and kept an impressive “Clara-can’t-do-shit” expression on her face. She swung her candy ludicrously and wiggled her ass involuntarily. Clara, I just can't get enough of her. A nurse came in and told me I had a visitor. Clara and I exchanged glances, wondering if it was Bryan or Gabriel. I went out
Danielle's POV With closed eyes, he broke the sensation I was about to take in as he stepped away and looked at me with a smile. Clara, wherever she stood—which I can't recall—must be having a thousand thoughts roaming her mind. He walked over to Ella and kissed her forehead. He whispered something in their ears which made them smile. He kissed Mila and Lila too before coming back to kiss my forehead. “ A guard would be here to stand guard and give them things they need to keep themselves busy. I assume Clara is going to stay with them?” I blinked and looked at Clara. She nodded. “I guess I'm the only one not getting a kiss,” she said and laughed alone then kept quiet awkwardly when no one laughed with her. He left without saying a word. When the door closed, Clara freaked out like she had been holding it in for a while.“How the fuck did that happen just now, why didn't you tell me you both have a t
Danielle's POV “I didn't want to tell you because I didn't want you to be so curious and get yourself into trouble.” She held my hands and fixed a serious expression. “Our boss is more dangerous than Mark but he protects what he loves. He has saved me once and I am sure he has saved you more than once. He guides what he finds treasure in and disposes of what he doesn't want. He keeps you safe from people like Mark. They are sworn enemies.” I sighed. There's more to all these that I do not know about. “Let's forget about that for now, it's a conversation for another day. I don't want to ruin your lovely evening.” She brought out a box and handed it over. “Go and change, he will be here no matter what.” It felt like he asked her to dress me to look like his wife. Taking the dress out of the box, it fell to the ground, gracefully showing off the floral pattern of a rose. “Woah,” the kids exclaimed. The dre
Danielle's POV The emptiness of the rooftop with the cool Ed Sheeran song playing softly from a place I couldn't point out made the night cool and romantic. The colors blended with my dress and he, like a Noble man in a suit, sat across me with love burning in his eyes. I wanted him to speak first and tell me what he had in mind that made him come to such a romantic and private place just to have dinner. However tonight will play out, I do not plan on getting laid. His thoughts didn't seem far from my own when he said we would be done in time to go back to the kids. “So, what do we start with?” I asked. “First of all,” he stood up and went behind a closed curtain. He came back with two plates of baked full chicken and pizza. Why is it always pizza, is that the one thing he knows how to do? “We eat. You asked me to have dinner with you, that's what's more important." I smiled and dug my knife into my chicken. I was starving. Thank goodness it was just us, I can eat as I please. F
Bryan's POV Soft moans escaped her mouth and her hot breath caressed my face. Oh lovely her body was, she tasted like candy. The kiss was soft and full of pleasure. As much as I didn't want to, I had to pull away and look down at her pretty face. Her lips curved up in a smile. She looked away shyly and hugged me. “I thought you'd never let me know.” I hugged her back and tried to make her as comfortable as possible. Finally, I had the chance to say it out loud. After a moment of heartfelt hug, she said she wanted to get a rest. She went ahead and sat down in her glorious dress. She fits to be the lover of a handsome and wealthy vampire. Her once happy face changed in seconds. She looked worried and thoughtful. I went over to sit in front of her. “Did something happen?” She shook her head and took a sip of her drink. “I don't want to go about fighting and arguing just to be with you. I have no idea what you want with me or what your intentions are. I can only believe what you
Isabelle's POV I couldn't believe my eyes and stood there in awe. I am sure I called him a million times already and it's been days since he started this. This bitch, Danielle, she never backs down, does she? I'll make sure I make her feel miserable for the rest of her life. “You,” I said and pointed to Danielle. She stepped out into open space and that was when I saw her dress. I saw this same dress online and it cost a fortune. He could get her such nice clothes and make her look so beautiful that I even questioned my beauty. I found the tears behind my eyes, once again, she was taking everything from me. “get your filthy hands off my direction.” Danielle snapped. She frowned her face and walked closer to me, emitting a very dangerous aura. “I have had enough!” Where did she learn to talk back to me and be so confident about it? It was the first time I would see her come back at me, perhaps next Mr. Smith was here. What are they doing here in the first place? I looked around,
Danielle's POV Telling Isabelle not to ruin my night was too late. She already did. I went back in my memory, just how confident Susan was to walk up to me just to attempt to slap me. Nah, I didn't want anything to kill my night for me. I loved the way I stopped her and Bryan stepped up for me. He did it, he broke up with Isabelle. I heard all the conversations they had. I smiled faintly, it's a good thing. Now I know he has nothing to do with either of them and I am free to be with him whenever I want. It is official, I am his girlfriend. Now nothing is stopping me from telling him that he is the father of the kids. I still didn't know how I would tell him. I glanced at him, he was still frowning even as he drove. I put my hands on his beard and teased him. His face became calm as he smiled at the road. “What are you doing?” he asked. I laughed. “just seeing if I could count your beards.'' Of course, that's a silly thing to do. “I'm sorry about that,” he said. I took my hands a
