It was her first time, and consciously Danny knew of that, but he could not stop his desires, he wanted her there and then. If not for his mother who has advised Cassie Cobswel, his supposed fiancee to drug him and the stupid girl did a very bad job by emptying the entire content of the liquid in his drink. Danny felt the hotness in his breath and his senses picked up, he was on a date to end things with her, he had told her of his marriage and the nonpossibility of union between the both of them in the future. He knew his mother so well and when Cassie had accepted everything so quickly he had thought it happened rather too quickly and just as expected, both ladies had something up their sleeves. Danny had to get Mathew to pick him up as he had driven himself, if his friend had wasted any more time, he would have made the biggest mistake of a lifetime. He was helped into the room by Mathew who closed the door as he got in. he saw the beauty he had married on the bed immense in her
It's been 3 years since Alphia walked into the grey home as a bride. She was shy and not very outgoing to others, she kept to the library and made it her favorite spot. But as time went by especially after they found out to be expecting a baby, she realized it was time to be better for her children. Danny had been teaching and introducing her gradually into the business but with the birth of Leonard, everything took a new turn. The threats to their lives were now evident and every passing day felt like a drop of water in an ocean. It was just a matter of time before someone took action. Mrs Grey resigned herself to politics and played dirty, they had some enemies from within but she went ahead and created monsters from the outside. Alphia was aware of her powerful she was, she knew the position of the household metron was nothing to joke about, however, it would have been appreciated if she would cease to create even more monsters and focus on dealing with the thousands they already
Alphia woke up very early, she got Danny all set for his trip, while Sarah helped prepare Leonard for school. Danny got into the car staring at his father wave at him, he could not hold back his tears. As the drive took off, he let it all fall. The ride to the airport was quiet, and he soon boarded and left. Alphia got very busy with taking care of the home, she was now in charge of so many things as Mrs. Grey was most absent and her health was not helping matters. She walked out of her room, and the sound of shattering plates coming from the dinner area caught her off guard. Leonard was having his breakfast, Alphia sprang to her feet, the thought of her son getting hurt was not something she could bear. She ran to the dining room, Leonard stood still with his eyes on the floor, Alphia followed the look of her son and found every dish used in serving Danny had been shattered. She walked up to him, taking him into her arms. She could feel his trembling body relax under her touch. ‘’I
They all worried for her, hade was a cheerful type, and around the mansion making sure everything was where it should be, she brought in light with her. However for the past 2 weeks, she has lived like a shadow of herself, he barely slept or ate. She only smiled when Leo was around, her eyes carried so much pain, and she had lost a good amount of weight which was not good for her health. She dashed towards Mrs. Grey's room knocking hard on the door. It was soon answered and she ushered herself in. Mrs. Grey was still in bed, she looked even more fragile than the last time Alphia had seen her. It was clear her health was getting the best of her. ‘’Why are you here?’’ Mrs. Grey snapped. Her voice sounded even more fragile which made Alphia’s heartache on her behalf. She knew she hated her and there was nothing she could do about it, but she was still the grandmother to her child and mother to Danny, she could not bring herself to tell her about her fears. ‘’I came to ask what you woul
Leonard was a smart kid and Alphia knew that. She could not keep it away from him, her emotions were just too much. How was she to explain the sudden white decorations that had commenced already? How was she to hide it from him that the corpse which would be arriving in no time is not that of his father? She watched as the blood drained from her son. He trembled under her touch but he did not let out a sound. Rather he inched even closer and hugged his mother. Leonard understood he was now the man of the house and had to protect his mother. She could not hold back her tears, she felt like a coward for having her almost 3-year-old son comfort her when it had to be her place to have him in her arms. Sarah was standing over her, her heart broken in a thousand shades watching the people she cared so much for break. ‘’Sarah please help me stay with Leonard, I have to oversee the burial preparations`` Leonard walks over to her without saying a word or resisting. I walked out and everythin
‘’I miss you’’ she murmurs to no one, his picture standing on the nightstand with her and Leonard. How could she not miss this man, he was barely gone, it had not been a day and everything was already going another way, her emotions were all over the place and the greedy uncles were more than ready to start throwing claims around. She quickly got into the shower, she had a long bath. If they wanted war, then war they would get. She was losing no one else to this feud and she was going to make sure of it. She walked in wearing a black suit jacket black pants and black shiny heels. The makeup is light and dangerous. She accompanied her looks with her long hair tied in a nicely made bun. She looked dangerously beautiful. She was mourning and unlike other times when she would have loved to accompany her dress with colorful aspects and some accessories, she only wore her wedding ring. This was all left of him, a memory she would love to put on replay in her head. She picks up her black
Everyone was ready and waiting. Alphia walked in with her son, the chairwoman's seat was vacant, and two seats at its side stood vacant as well. It was for her and Matthew. Mathew was not a shareholder in any of the Grey companies, but he was a staff and well-trusted employee of Danny, his presence was just as important as any other. Alphia walked over to the chairwoman's seat and placed her son in it while she took the seat closer to him on the left and Mathw did the same with the seat to the right. ‘’What nonsense is this? First, you are late and now you put your son on something which is not his?”’ one of the shareholders barked. The extended family of the Grey had been exterminated doing business with Grey, however, Danny had found out before his death that most shareholders were friends of the people they had been trying so hard to keep out, and the most devastating news is they bought the shares for them and were in good collaboration. Now more than ever he hopes his son will b
It's been 2 months since the passing of Danny. Alphia has been very busy with handling work at the company, she indeed had the support of everyone including Mathew and other staff. The mansion was doing great, and Leonard was doing great with schoolwork and was improving. Alphia was scared the loss of his father would make him weak, but it rather strengthened him, he has been working even harder, he no longer played and every time he should have been playing was directed towards learning new things. This attitude of his scared alphia. This was not the son she gave birth to, she was no longer herself, and everyone changed. Mrs Grey is over in England for treatment, she could not smile. The light of her life suddenly went out. Alphia got home, it's been a tiring day at work. The light in Leonard's room was illuminating, she walked over and before she could open the door she heard voices. ‘’Why won't you give in Leo, you are a child and no one would believe you”’ the voice sounded too
