Ralph closed his eyes in the jeep and questioned himself several times as to why he agreed to be Klara’s chauffeur and even decided to wait for her outside her home like a crazy idiot. He knew she’s influencing him but didn’t expect her impact to be this strong. It’s his fault for always handing his reins to her and he couldn’t do anything except let her control his steps. He felt bored waiting in the jeep and got down to see around. He entered the lawn and walked around to find the way which Enrico uses to enter her room. He knew they would meet at her home in the past but never once tried to know how he got in but now he shouldn’t let it slip away not after claiming his little wolf.He saw both of them sneaking out at midnights like thieves to eat barbecue at the end of the street. Of course they thought they were discreet but who can escape his golden eyes. As he walked to the left side of the house he saw her room through the window. There is a tree near her room which is easie
“How are things between you and Gwen?”Darla asked Neil who is arranging food on the dining table. The takeout came just after Klara and Thiago left to get drinks so Neil left Gwen and Darla to decorate the cake table while he set the dinner. He stopped placing the napkins in midway and gave a quick look at Gwen who’s immersed in her task and said casually “We’re good”Darla can say he’s avoiding the topic and she didn’t want to push him hard either so she just said “It’s good that everything is fine, if not it’s definitely not you who gets hurt”She turned around to leave but Neil stopped her by blocking her way. “I broke up with her”“What?”Neil told her about all the shit he’d gone through to which Darla felt sorry and patted his shoulder after he’s done.“You did a great job Neil but don’t ghost her again if she approaches you as a friend or even as a lovesick girl because I didn’t apply for any other universities and also it’s hard to vacate my dormitory”Neil chuckled
There are no words to describe Enrico’s heartbreak at the moment as he stared at the kissing couple. His blood boiled with hatred as he gripped the steering wheel popping his veins out. His long hair was in mess as he ran his fingers through it countless times thinking about Klara the whole day and the result of his anticipation is seeing her with someone else. ‘Why are you doing this to me Klara? He didn’t accompany you all these years but me. He never cared about our family. Then why? Why are you letting him kiss you but not me?’He closed his eyes when Klara broke the kiss and revealed her bright face which is glowing with happiness and he drove off in anguish unable to see their romance. She never gave that kind of smile when he’s around but now it’s like there is no end to her happiness. He is now more determined to destroy their relationship because Ralph didn’t deserve her. It's him not even Luc who came to see her once in a while. It’s him who cared about her more than a
“Where is Fiona?”Neil asked Thiago who came in with drinks alone. He’s been waiting to talk to Fiona for a while now as it’s been more than four months since they had a good talk and thought to spend some time with her on the occasion of Victoria’s birthday but he didn’t have a chance as she’s worrying about the celebration and even took Thiago to buy drinks instead of taking him with her and now she disappeared again. “Uh..she’s….she’s outside”Thiago put the beer case down and smoothed his hair with his fingers shifting in his place looking at here and there nervously. Everyone knew what that look meant, he is uncertain about something or hiding about something.“Thiago spill the beans”Gwen was the curious cat among them so she didn’t spare Thiago till he told them where Klara is.“S..she’s talking to…s..someone” Thiago stuttered scratching his neck. Wilson couple understood who Fiona’s with but her friends didn’t believe him because Thiago only stutters when he messes with
“Fiona! It’s okay if you are uncomfortable to talk about him. Let’s cut the cake”Neil came forward to break the silence. He didn’t want anyone to force Fiona to talk about her relationship with the man outside. He knew she is capable enough to take care of her own matters and she would definitely tell them about her boyfriend if she’s ready, till then they have to wait and also he didn’t want to spoil his already spoiled mood by talking about Fiona’s love life. He needs time to digest the truth. Klara is really lucky to have Neil because he knew her better than others. She didn’t know how or why but Neil always helps her in difficult situations like this. She’s really grateful for him for always having her back. “I know you are curious to know who he is but it’s a little bit complicated. Give me sometime guys…I’ll definitely introduce him to you all”Wilson couple heaved a sigh as Klara handled the situation well but they still want to have a talk with her about Ralph because h
Gwen held Neil’s waist tightly concealing herself from Ralph’s view because his aura is intimidating and she's frightened to be around him. Who the fuck is that man? She didn’t even dare to at least face him when he looked at her with his cold eyes. Eyes? They are so different with golden orbs but scary and dangerous.Neil patted Gwen’s hands around him as he felt her shivering body. He didn’t know what to do with her attitude. She’s just a paper tiger who only knew how to yell at him but as soon as faced with an outsider she’s like a meek prey. He looked back at Darla and Thiago who are hiding behind Wilson couple.He frowned looking at Thiago who is praying by closing his eyes. Isn’t he a bit exaggerating? He shifted his gaze to Darla who is looking at the man like her favourite meal. He shook his head in embarrassment. What the hell happened to his friends? They’re acting like weirdos. He finally glanced at Wilson couple who are equally as distorted as him or that’s what he tho
“Dad I know what’s on your mind but it’s not a big deal. He isn’t that old for me”Klara pouted lowering her head. She didn’t want her parents to object her choice now. Her dad was furious already just knowing Ralph’s age and what would he feel when he knew what the moron did to her? She didn’t want anything to go wrong, not when she finally managed to get Ralph’s heart. She still has to persuade him to allow her to go upstairs and end her misery once and for all. So before that she didn’t want her dad to mess her plans with his overprotectiveness. But even after achieving her goals she’ll not spare Ralph and will get back at him for all the things he did to her after going back to her family after solving their problems. She loves him and really wants to live with him forever but that doesn’t mean she forgave him for the pain he caused. Logan suppressed his anger taking out the candles getting ready for the party in silence. What can he do even if Ralph is twenty years older th
Neil has many special moments in his life since childhood with his family, friends and with Fiona but this moment is incomparable. The way Fiona leaned into his touch and rubbed against his hand looking at him with her charming eyes. His heart throbbed for her instantly and he wanted nothing but to steal her away. He wants to tell how much he missed her, how much he wants to be with her as her boyfriend. He leaned forward as she nuzzled against his hand like a kitten and wanted to kiss…..“Neil can you drop me home”Their peaceful moment is interrupted by Gwen who came into the kitchen with the rubbish bags. Gwen’s voice was like a wake up call to Klara as she sobered up a little and shook her head trying to regain her composure. Damn! She’s totally wasted. Ralph would get angry if he sees her in a drunken state. She staggered to the sink faucet and splashed water on her face and felt a little better. Neil’s mood darkened as soon as Fiona sprinted away from him. It’s like she didn
“Dad! Where is Lucas?”Klara asked as soon as she barged into the study of her brother removing her overcoat and saw her parents talking to each other in worry. Carl who is immersed in the conversation with his wife Kate is shocked to see Klara and so is Kate. “What happened to you?”Roselli couple surrounded her in worry, terrified to see her complexion. She’s completely drenched in the rain with her messy hair stuck to her neck, face full of rashes and her eyes are red as if she cried for a long time. She’s all fine when he face timed her this evening. What happened to her now? Did she meet with an accident on the way back home? He knew she’s scared of thunders and still let her come alone to help them in heavy rain putting aside her fear. How can he be so cruel to his own daughter? The weather is very bad and it’s not just rain but a cyclone out there. How difficult would it have been for her to reach home?“I am fine dad. Just call Luc”Klara said panting heavily still cat
Ralph sat on his usual chair at the dining table waiting for Aurora. He tried his best to concentrate on the meeting but Klara consumed his thoughts and that fucking pie which she made for his birthday defeated him utterly.To be honest, he should be here before dawn but he waited outside the fort for hours struggling with his emotions but when he sensed the change in weather and when the thunders echoed he thought of Klara who is scared of them and drove in immediately. That’s how much she effects him and his thoughts. Cecelia stood at the entrance of dining hall watching Ralph eat the pie with an evil smirk. She slowly retreated into the main hall and climbed the steps to the third floor silently without getting caught by anyone. ‘Klara Roselli! It’s time to destroy you’Aurora stood beside Ralph along with Dylan and Milo watching him finish the pie in seconds. He must be hungry or maybe greedy. Why did he leave if he’s so desperate for Fiona? Master loves to be hard on himsel
Freya curled her body into the corner, her eyes brimming with tears and her heart wailing hysterically thinking about her situation. The most scariest part is Enrico who usually a kind yet playful man turning into a barbarian. The malice in his eyes, the anger that consumed his features and above all…his venomous words and his vicious actions of kidnapping her, everything about him is scaring her a lot and that fear is like an appetizer to Enrico. He twirled her tendrils between his fingers while his thoughts drifted to Klara. She’ll be here soon with him. Finally he’s getting his love and he’ll take her away from everyone. He’ll start a new life with her in a beautiful island away from his family and Ralph. Just the thought of imagining his future with Klara gives him enormous joy and motivation to destroy Ralph. “Ben, what’s the status?”He asked the man guarding the door and Ben bowed humbly after entering the room.“Mr. Roselli is hunting down whole Cylantra to find you boss
“Father! Do it fast”Klara urged Louis who is pressing the keys for the past thirty minutes in lightening speed. Hacking into Dylan’s laptop takes at least one hour because they clear all the traces in it every time they return it to him. So they had to hack into his system using different codes every time they use it. “Patience darling, I am trying my best”Klara paced around the room fiddling with her fingers. She could’ve demanded her own laptop when she had chance but that only makes Ralph more suspicious about her and also he’s nowhere to make demands. Moron!After another thirty minutes of agonizing torture she finally saw her dad who is on the other side.“Dad! Did you find anything about Ralph?”Carl wiped his sweat before shaking his head in defeat. Klara fell back on sofa tired of hearing negative answers for the past one week. Where did the moron go? Why can’t anyone find him? Where the F did he disappear to? Louis rubbed her hand in worry trying to make her feel g
Klara became a lifeless doll with Ralph’s absence. Her personality changed from lively to moody and even her complexion changed a lot in just few days. Aurora is already worried about Ralph and seeing Fiona in a bad shape worried her more and she persuaded the poor girl to eat something so that she can have energy to wait for Ralph in the main hall because that’s what she does most of the time everyday. She sits on the sofa in the main hall or outside the Onyx for hours with the hope of seeing Ralph entering from the main door but her wait is prolonging to many more days but she never let her hope down. Klara had her lunch with great difficulty with Aurora’s persuasion. A week without Ralph is worse than a hell. It’s not that she never lived without him but those times were different. She knew where he is and who he’s with but now she had no clue about him, not even his people.Dylan alone is taking care of the clan with the help of Milo. Cecelia on the other hand is quiet happy
“Aurora, where is Ralph?”Klara asked the old lady who is busy in the kitchen. She searched for his figure after coming down from Louis’s room but couldn’t find him anywhere in the Onyx. “Master left after meeting Mr. Khan” the working woman answered with a frown. Even Aurora is worried about Ralph because she had a very bad feeling about master’s departure as he felt with a face full of half anger and half sadness.“Where to?”“I don’t know”Klara sighed going back to her room. He must’ve left for work. No problem he’ll come back in the evening, she can wait till then. But she didn’t expect the wait to prolong for days. There is no sign of him after that day and even Dylan has no clue about his whereabouts. It’s as if he disappeared into thin air. She urged Dylan to find him after waiting for few days but how can they find him without a way to contact him? Dylan saw Ralph driving out in his jeep three days ago without protection and was worried but he couldn’t do anything bec
“Father, what do you know about Mr. Khan?”Klara asked Louis who just finished his breakfast and sat opposite him on sofa. “Mr. Khan as in Faisal Khan? He’s the ruler of Feriplo. What about him darling?”Louis knew how powerful the Khan’s are but never once initiated to have dealings with them and also the Khan’s are very hard to work with because they never relied on others for centuries. Their ancestors made sure of that. Their fortune is unfathomable. It’s like a genie lamp. “Mr. Khan is working for your son. I don’t know what they are dealing with but I think it’s related to our past”Louis is shocked to know that Faisal Khan is working for Ralph because he never works for anyone not even the president of the country let alone mafia clans. He’s the most arrogant and strong headed Khan in his bloodline. How did Ralph make him succumb? His son is capable of taming the most powerful ruler. He’s very proud of his son. Louis straightened his back, lifting his head high thinkin
“Tell me about your fiancée”All the heads at the dining table turned to Klara. It’s eight in the morning and everyone’s having breakfast peacefully but her question ruined the peace. Dylan and Milo are beginning to feel vexed with breakfast because every time they sit to have a feast, Fiona will ask Ralph something that piss him off and he takes off immediately, not before ordering them to follow him. It’s better if they adapt the life without breakfast. “Just eat”Ralph put another boiled egg into Klara’s plate and gestured her to keep quiet. But will Klara be quiet? Of course not. She turned to Aurora who rarely sits with them to have breakfast and said….“I think you know about her Aurora”Aurora choked on her food and glanced at Ralph who is staring at Klara with his narrowed eyes. She cleared her throat regaining her composure and took a sip of water from the glass before answering Klara. “I….I..”She stuttered unable to speak and pleaded Klara with her eyes to leave he
Klara heaved a sigh as Ralph let her go without doing anything. Her body is beyond exhausted and anymore stimulation can break her into two so she better not provoke the insatiable beast. She just laid beside him who is fuming with rage and helplessness and turned sideways resting her head on his hand and started to speak cautiously.“Father…I mean your father is willing to help you”“I don’t need his help”She punched his chest irritated by his arrogance. Can’t he put aside his pride for once and think? If father is in the light, the enemy will uncover himself. It makes their work easier. “He’s your father. Seeking his help doesn’t make you powerless. Why do you always want to do everything alone? You keep secrets from your own people”“Because I can’t afford to be betrayed again”Ralph snapped freaking Klara. She moved back in fear as he glared at her with his cold eyes. “I lost my mother because of betrayal and do you expect me to repeat the same mistake the man who you ar
