It’s been almost four months since Klara attempted to see the person he hid upstairs. She didn’t talk about that incident till now nor tried to sneak in again. Why? She risked her life to see his dad but why is she silent after knowing that he’s alive? It's as if she wiped out the memory of her going upstairs. He wasn’t sure if she saw his dad or not considering the fact that she didn’t make any progress till day. If she really saw him, she wouldn’t wait till now to meet him again or was she planning something big?He wasn’t sure if she saw his dad or not but he’s sure of one thing and that is he couldn’t stop her from going upstairs again as he isn’t afraid of them meeting. No matter what her strategy is she could never change the past. He saw with his own eyes how Carl Roselli pushed his mother into the fire while his father threw him out of the window to save him from the blast. He wish his eyes deceived him and that Carl didn’t push his mother but that day was still fresh in
Klara felt her insides churn when she realized Ralph kissed her without brushing. She struggled vigorously like a fish that caught in the net. Ralph didn’t expect such strong reaction from her which made him let her go instantly.His eyebrows drew together when she pushed him back harshly getting down the counter and gagged her mouth to vomit but nothing came out. She took the mug from the counter and filled it with water before starting to gargle again. Anger brewed in Ralph’s body watching her actions. Was she disgusted by his kiss or did she really felt like vomiting? After cleaning her mouth countless times Klara finally put the mug down panting heavily rubbing her chest.“What happened?”His voice was curt and anyone can tell that he’s angry from the way the bones in his jaw were taut and his eyes were ice cold but Klara wasn’t aware of that as she was more angry than him.“What happened? You kissed me moron”Klara gave him a look of disbelief before wiping her lips with t
“It’s Enrico Trupiano”The person who is driving the car spoke side glancing at Ralph who was silent like a wounded lion. “Lucas Roselli stripped him from his duties for three months from now for being reckless” he continued as Ralph was still silent and didn’t even spare him a glance though he’s reporting important information.“It happened three hours ago. After Enrico came back from Kandon”Only now Ralph tilted his head looking at Arlo who nodded his head confirming Ralph’s suspicion. Enrico goes to Kandon solely to meet Klara and today he went again for her…probably with the excuse of Victoria’s birthday.The thing is….What made him so angry that he broke the cold war between them with the murder? For years Kingsters tolerated everything Ralph did to them but what changed. What pushed Enrico to take things this far? It must be Enrico’s rage that killed Ralph’s people. Who did he direct his rage at? Obviously it’s at Ralph because Ric wouldn’t kill his men for fun. Ric mus
Ralph took his time to get dressed testing Klara’s patience which she is incapable of….not when he’s ignoring her. By the time he came out Klara is boiling with rage, ready to erupt with just a drop of gasoline.Ralph stood in front of the mirror combing his hair and styled it with the gel. His eyes met with Klara’s in the mirror for a brief moment before he saw the mess on the bed behind her. “Set the bed”Those are the words he said before leaving her alone in his room. This is the moment when the wall Klara built in the time Ralph stalled in the cloak room collapsed in seconds. Set the bed? For sure. She threw the pillows on the ground cursing him out loud.Ralph met Dylan outside his room, they talked for a minute before descending to the main hall to visit a warehouse. Cecelia as usual was in a bad mood to see Ralph wake up so late. It's so out of his character, except for days where he had to stay awake all night, Ralph wouldn’t sleep at day time but today he didn’t come do
“Aurora”Klara’s roar successfully stopped Aurora from escaping. A thin layer of mist formed on both of their bodies because of the tension between them. Klara looked around making sure they were alone but still she couldn’t discuss a sensitive topic in the open.“Come with me”She said dragging Aurora’s frightened body to the third floor ignoring her protests. Once they are inside Klara’s room, they both faced each other. Klara crossed her arms across her chest while Aurora fidgeted with the hem of her apron. “Fiona! You faced master’s wrath for disobeying him once. Don’t push your luck hard. He can’t be gentle all the time”Klara never saw Aurora raise her voice at her or anyone at all from the day she came to live here but she’s angry now. She knew it’s out of concern but still it stunned Klara.“Aurora, tell me one thing. Would anyone in this entire world will live like me with this moron? For god sake I am just a nineteen year old normal girl who just graduated from the hi
Klara tried to remember everything from last night and except rejecting his kiss she didn’t offend him and she didn’t like Dylan’s accusing look. Why is bald head blaming her? Why should she accept Ralph’s kiss? It’s not like she should obey his orders. “I did nothing….”Her pitch reduced as realization dawned on her. He is angry because she got drunk though he warned her. Gosh! She exhaled sharply stomping her feet and walked inside. It’s her mother’s birthday and she met her friends after a long time. Isn’t she allowed to have some fun? Ralph sensed something’s wrong with Aurora as she’s dodging his eyes from the moment he entered the dining hall. He gulped down the water from the bottle and gestured Aurora to follow him and the old woman obeyed him and they both went to the meeting hall on the second floor ignoring Klara who is chasing after them. “Hey! Wait!....Moron!!”Klara cursed kicking the closed door with her foot suppressing her brewing anger.‘How dare you to shut
“Where are you going?”Lucas stopped buttoning his shirt after hearing the divine voice behind him and turned around facing the naked seductress on the bed. Freya sat up covering her torso with the pillow blocking Luc’s hungry gaze and successfully made him look at her face, only. Lucas groaned coming to her side and pulled her into a breath-taking kiss. Freya didn’t expect Luc to kiss her as he never did that after dressing up. Putting on his clothes means he’s back to his own self – the serious mode from the sex driven monster. What’s the sudden change? But she liked it.“What was that for?”She asked after Lucas left her lips, her voice hoarse from his kiss. “Just stopping you from being loquacious” said Lucas kissing her forehead and Freya punched him in the abdomen with her fist. She’s not voluble, well….she is actually. She just likes to share her things with Lucas. It’s not a new thing. She’s been doing that for more than a year now. He didn’t have a problem with that a
Klara didn’t know why Ralph’s words effected her. She felt like he’s pushing her away by not talking to her. Why is he so unwilling to talk about the past? Was it because he hated to talk about her? Did he hate her so much that he buried his past in the depths of his heart? If talking about her alone disgusts him, What would he do if he finds out about her real identity? Would he still treat her like he treated Fiona? Can she still have chance to be with him in the future? She couldn’t help but worry about her life but her trail of thoughts were interrupted by his low growl. Before she can whip her head to see him, her body was pulled flush against him and her lips were sealed by his.Ralph tried his best not to worry about her but he can feel her distress like his own heartbeat. He was tormented by her silence, his muscles went stiff from his restraint, his heart ached for her. Finally after battling within himself for few minutes he lost his rationality.Touching her body, feeli
Klara crawled out in a hurry once Lucas signalled her that they were alone. She gulped down the water bottle placed on the table in one go to calm her nerves. This is the worst timing ever.Lucas adjusted the air conditioning when he saw his baby sister sweating. He took the tissues and wiped her sweat while she rested on the sofa with a racing heart. Enrico stood aside without uttering a word and looked at the siblings waiting for Klara to speak. He was hurt by Lucas as he hid few things from him but Ralph knew them for fuck sake. When Luc warned Ralph to not hurt someone, a woman who he didn’t know, he was beyond shocked. His best buddy for twenty some years has a woman he cared and he isn’t aware of her. He thought they were best friends and brothers but Luc never treated him like one. He has faith in Ralph to take care of Klara but not him. And he didn’t tell him about his lover which is like adding salt to his wound. “I am leaving tomorrow”Klara finally opened her mouth
“You mean the one I kissed in front of you”Klara’s cheeks turned bright red hearing Ralph’s teasing words as she remembered his kisses. God! How can he be shameless? She was suddenly grateful to be in the dark because she didn’t want to face her brother. It’s embarrassing. How could Ralph say such words just like that?Ralph’s smile grew more as Luc’s face darkened. Why is it Roselli siblings misery always gives him pleasure than any other thing in this world? “Who is she?” asked Lucas though he knew the answer. He thought he could bully Ralph but why does it seem like he’s falling into his own trap? Ralph isn’t bothered by his questions at all, on the contrary he’s infuriating him with his answers. Despite Ralph’s laziness and Luc’s rage, Enrico was silent as he didn’t want to interact with Ralph and he’s not in the mood for a conversation because he doubted his ability to hide his nervousness. He better stay quiet less his ruse with Cecelia would be exposed and above all he h
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
