“Luc…”Lucas hit the steering wheel hearing her trembling voice. If Milo saw Enrico then all their struggles would go in vain because Milo would immediately inform Ralph about Ric’s visit to Klara which will mess all their plans.“Klara calm down. Trust me, everything will be fine”Klara sat on the chair clutching her hair as sweat dripped from her forehead. She shouldn’t have let him leave. How can she forget about Milo? He is just outside her home.“Fiona what’s going on? You are scaring us”Logan held Klara’s cheeks making her look at him. Klara blamed herself for worrying the old couple but she couldn’t help her anxiety.“Dad! Milo is outside. What if he saw Ric?”Logan and Victoria heaved a sigh sharing a look. They shook their heads holding her closer to them. “Sweetheart. How can we let him leave like that? I lend my clothes to him and made sure that he’s fully covered before letting him go”Luc hit the brakes listening to Logan’s explanation. He breathed heavily lean
“I am still breathing dumbass. Would he still let me live if he knew who I am? For god sake even our family didn’t know about my existence till I took the initiative to meet dad. How can Ralph know about me? Maybe he’s really interested in me AKA Fiona Wilson”Now Lucas believed her as it’s true that they didn’t know about her till she met dad in the graveyard. It’s really one in million possibilities that Ralph would know about her. “Fine girl, just be careful. You don’t have to put up with his shit. Remember you have us”“I know Luc. Don’t be so hard on Ric”Though Ric crossed his line by accusing her, she didn’t want her brother to rebuke him because given with his personality Ric would retaliate which is very disastrous for them. “I know how to deal with him, it’s just that he loves you so much that he couldn’t accept you being with Ralph”Klara rubbed her forehead as she can feel a headache coming on. She shouldn’t have lied to Ric about Ralph. If she’d been clear about w
“My baby sister hates that colour”“No! She likes this colour but she hates the one in your hand”“You don’t know what she likes”“You don’t know either”Ralph sighed pushing them aside and started decorating the swing using his skills. He first used dark coloured flowers then as he goes up he stuck pale coloured flowers because when Klara sits on the swing the dark colours would compliment her milky skin tone.Luc and Ric totally forgot about their mission and argued for whole ten minutes. By the time they realized their task, Ralph had done decorating one side of the ropes. “Wow, big brother. It’s beautiful”Luc opened his mouth wide as he was enchanted by the décor. They both stood aside without disturbing Ralph who is working very hard to make the swing look like a garland. After sometime they thought to lend helping hand to Ralph in assembling flowers by neatly cutting the thorns on the stems and even tied colour ribbons to some flowers so that Klara wouldn’t hurt her han
In Klara’s room….Klara made Ralph sit on her tiny bed and ran to her cupboard to bring the first aid kit while the injured Ralph looked around her room with his golden eyes in curiosity because it’s his first time coming into her room. She would object him whenever he wanted to step inside telling him that he shouldn’t enter a girl’s bedroom but she would come into his room without his permission and even sleeps on his bed like she owned it. Silly girl. His eyes landed on her things which were not girly. He expected her room to be pink filled with dolls but it’s so different and not suitable for an eight year old girl. But then again it’s Klara Roselli they’re talking about. This room is just like her. Stubborn, violent and rebellious. His gaze shifted to their family portraits that filled the walls which were painted red and white and her racks have boy toys like jeeps, cars, bikes and helicopters. One wall was completely filled with irregular paintings. Flowers, animals and
Klara looked at the buildings passing by with a dejected look. The evening glow fell on her through the window but her face drooped low thinking about her new life. She never remained constant in one place for longer time as she always travelled around with her friends and family a lot but now she is confined to the fort alone. She missed her old life a lot but she chose this path and she can’t regret her decisions because she is fighting for her family. She even complained to Ralph about her boring life the other night while waiting for dinner in her room.She demanded him to give back her mobile which he obviously denied so she asked him to get paints from Diston and paint brushes, canvas and all stuff she needed. She also threatened him that she’ll run away from Cylantra if he didn’t grant her wish. They were negotiating about terms when Cecelia disturbed them with dinner. He's so infuriating. He refused to buy her favourite paints and told her to use local ones or the one ava
Inside the Onyx…Ralph saw Milo standing in the main hall holding a wine bottle and stepped towards him to know about Klara’s day activities as he wanted to know who she met. Milo greeted Ralph as soon as he spotted him coming in his way and Ralph acknowledged his greeting and gestured him to follow him to the study so that he can take his time to enquire him.“Wait!”Klara rushed to them in hurry, snatching away the wine bottle from Milo and extended her hands towards Ralph offering him the bottle in excitement. “This is for you” She said grinning widelyRalph put his hands behind his back staring at her with indifference. A wine bottle? Klara’s smile faded away as frustration took over her features because she’s fed up with his arrogance. “What the F happened to you moron? I bought this for you. Do you know how much it costs? Take it now” She demanded but Ralph still didn’t take the bottle from her making her even more angry. Before she can burst out Milo interrupted her. “M
Milo felt like he’s on pins and needles because of Ralph’s investigation. He didn’t know what sin he committed in the past life to face such scrutiny. He slowly told his conversation with Klara without skipping a word while Ralph sat on the sofa crossing his right leg over his left knee. He leaned back thinking about the man AKA Neil.She has only four friends as long as he remembered, among them two are men and the one closest to her is Neil. He often goes to Wilson’s residence and never once covered his face but why today? He turned to Milo and told him to find about Neil’s whereabouts soon and also to verify the man’s identity who came out of Wilson’s residence as he wanted to confirm who that man was. Milo was fast enough to complete his task, in fifteen minutes he came back with the information.“Master, Neil and Darla - a female friend of Fiona came to Wilson’s residence in the morning but Neil left before noon followed by Darla an hour later. At quarter to two in the aftern
Klara narrowed her eyes looking at Ralph as if she’s reading his mind. Her actions irritated Ralph and he hit her forehead with his making her hiss in pain again. “Now answer me” he demanded “So you didn’t summon anyone after I left?”Ralph nodded his head like a good boy turning her sulking pout into a beautiful smile but soon her smile turned into wide opened mouth as Ralph is slowly letting go off her wine bottle by loosening his fingers one by one. “Hey! Careful”She wanted to catch the bottle but he imprisoned her in his embrace twisting her hand making it difficult for her to reach the bottle.“Answer me” he demanded sternly which annoyed Klara so she just blurred out. “It’s Neil, my friend”Ralph let go off Klara stepping back a little and she rubbed her wrist which is now red because of his firm hold. She raised her head to curse him but he’s just staring at her with void expression, precisely looking at the red mark on her neck but she’s totally oblivious to his c
Everyone in Klara’s family and clan would buy her a gift for her birthday and Ralph got scolded once on her sixth birthday for coming home empty handed. Did he really decorate the swing to cut some slack for himself? Here she thought he did that because of his care and feelings. She wished to have Alzheimer for real to forget about this conversation. Ralph is really making her hate him more and more with his words. He is making it sound like he was forced to do everything that related to her. What about their first kiss? Did he accept it because he didn’t want to hurt her? Did he think she’ll complain to their parents if he didn’t cooperate with her? She felt bile rising up in her throat thinking about their precious first kiss. She cherished it for years but for him…it’s nothing but a burden to carry. Was he really that disgusted to be with her? What did she do to make him hate her? “For someone who didn’t remember my sister’s name had quite a memory of our old traditions. Yo
Lucas surprised everyone with his accusation and Klara’s blood pressure rose to maximum level hearing his words but she controlled her temper and waited for Ralph’s reaction but her brother didn’t give Ralph a chance to speak. “You don’t want to be blamed for the things you never committed while you are blaming my father of being the murderer when he didn’t kill your parents. I never saw such hypocrisy in the world’s history”Klara shook her head crawling slowly towards her brother and scratched his foot. It’s really dangerous to poke Ralph’s sore spot. This is not the time to provoke him. Why is her brother digging their own graves? Luc closed his eyes cursing himself for losing his temper. He shouldn’t have brought up the topic but he wasn’t wrong. Ralph should know the truth. His father spent years in anguish for losing Eriksons, in addition to that he bore the accusation of a killer. As a son he couldn’t tolerate injustice towards his father.Luc was intimidated by Ralph’s f
“Why are you here?”Lucas asked after sitting opposite Ralph, spreading his legs wide making it look like Ralph’s presence didn’t effect him least bit. Ric crossed his legs, eyes looking straight at Ralph and put his trembling hands in his robe pockets because he’s afraid of getting caught.He never expected Ralph’s visit and that too with Cecelia. Even though they only communicated through letters, it’s really hard to stay calm in front of the devil. They were very careful about their ruse, of course Ralph wouldn’t find them but still Ric is afraid of him. No matter how much he deny…there is always a part of him who fears Ralph. Take it his presence, stance, aura or looks or whatever. Ralph always intimidate others with his coldness and Enrico wasn’t an exception. “Since you were so desperate to have my appointment, I thought to be kind. What? Are you having second thoughts?”Lucas wasn’t stupid and knew exactly what Ralph meant. Ralph is here to talk about powerhouse and this
“He’s here Luc”Klara said her voice trembling with fear. Both men looked at her with deep frown. Before they can ask her what she meant, she started pacing around like a mad woman clutching her hair. “He’s here, he’s here” She repeated her words looking around to find a place to hide or jump or bury or whatever to escape from the upcoming disaster. She wished she had a time machine or a vanishing machine with her to disappear from this place. “Klara…calm down”Ric held her shoulders stopping her from moving and Luc wiped her sweat with his sleeve in concern. What happened to her? Why is she acting weird all of a sudden? “What happened sister?”“Ralph..he’s here brother”Luc and Ric looked at each other, as if she wasn’t making any sense. How can he be here? Before they can open their mouths, they heard a commotion outside followed by a knock and then the guard outside spoke in loud voice.“Boss! it’s BlackWolf clan leader”The three people in the room held their breaths,
Enrico wished to take away Klara with him because this is his only chance to disappear along with her without alerting others but knowing Klara’s personality she would cause ruckus and she’ll only hate him as her heart still belonged to Ralph. To erase her feelings he has to defeat Ralph and should let her know who the real Alpha male is…..Eloping is not an option for him. He’s not a coward like his dad and didn’t want to be bossed around by Lucas. He will prove his strength and power and that day will come soon. With these thoughts he drove in the dark night as he knew the destination of Luc already because he would only visit one place at this late hour and that is…..After thirty minutes Ric pulled the car to the Casino night club basement.Klara recognized the club and was sure her brother was here to meet the mysterious woman who is messing with his brain because she remembered him making out in the suite with a lady, beautiful blonde.She covered her head with the hoodie and
“Master, Finn hasn’t gotten his hands on the new route to the gold mine” Milo reported to Ralph who is watering the lilies in the garden. After the powerhouse destruction four months ago, Enrico and Lucas were very careful with their properties. They closed all the routes to reach the gold mines and it’s sill hard to find the exact path they’re using to work in the mine. Ralph expected the results as he’s well aware of Klara’s schemes. She must’ve warned Enrico to secure all their mines ahead. How generous? Poor Ralph…he is still thinking that the powerhouse belonged to Ric as that’s what the world knew but only few knew who the powerhouse really belonged to. This is another misunderstanding between Klara and Ralph regarding Enrico. First he thought the bruise on her neck which was caused by Ric’s nail as hickey from Ric and then he thought she’s helping Ric by warning him about the attacks. He wanted to destroy the Kingsters east coast mine in a month after powerhouse destr
The eight year old Klara held her hands together in fear and curled her body to the bed crying out loud. She closed her eyes and covered her ears with her hands when she heard gun shots and more screams. She held her breath wailing loudly when the door of the room kicked open.“Klara…my darling daughter”She looked at Louis who rushed towards her dodging the flames with his leather jacket. “Father”She bellowed extending her hands and threw her tiny body into his embrace. “Don’t cry darling. Let’s get you out of here” Louis said lifting Klara up and the little girl in his embrace hugged his neck tightly burying her face into his nape. Louis covered Klara’s body with his jacket and ran out hurriedly. Everything was so haze in Klara’s mind. All she remembered was her suffocation from the smoke, screams and gun shots. She lifted her head and looked over Louis’ shoulder hearing Ralph’s voice and saw a figure similar to her dad hiding in the corner behind Mother Julia who was wa
Klara never saw her brother desperate to run away from her but something is fishy about his late night engagement tonight. Of course he peeked her interest by insisting her to drop the topic which on contrary intensified her curiosity.She would’ve let him go if he didn’t bother her so much that he even dared to drag her out of their parents room like a sand bag. Who is her brother’s hook up? She’ll find out soon. “OK fine. Just don’t get caught by me again. I can’t promise you a second time”Lucas hugged her tightly with a huge grin which looked like it’s going to spill out of his face. Seeing his reaction, Klara is determined to find the mysterious woman who her brother is desperate to hide from her and her family.“Not a chance. Have a beauty sleep baby sis. You have a birthday blast tomorrow”Lucas accompanied Klara to her room telling her about the cakes, cookies, pastries, menu, blah, blah, blah…Klara gave red flags to few items before closing her bedroom door. Lucas too
Instead of thinking of other possibilities Ralph blindly believed his eyes and no one can blame him for that because Klara testified to prove Luc’s innocence and Julia is not alive to testify Carl but Klara didn’t want to lose hope. Ralph is a smart ass and there must be a reason why he still didn’t completely destroy Kingsters and if there isn’t any..she didn’t know what to believe otherwise. He thinks that her dad conspired with Rocco to blame father Louis, to separate him from the clan and to kill him along with his family so that her dad can takeover the Golden Eagle clan. What an admirable logic? But none of it is true. And to prove Ralph wrong she’ll go to great lengths. “What do you want to do? You just got rid of Ralph” Lucas questioned Klara who is frowning as if she’s cooking something in her mind. He didn’t want her to put herself in danger again. From the looks of it she seems to be planning to play with fire considering her trait of being prone to cause troubles.
