     Alexandre was shocked.

Not because Ellise could do such a thing but because Nadine could go through such an extreme length to make everyone dance to her tune. He knew that Ellise wouldn't do such a thing. That was why he why he didn't believe a word Nadine had said. He turned to look at Ellise who looked really pale. She looked sick.

"Dre, you believe her, don't you?" She said, furiously.

"No, I don't" he said, shaking his head. Ellise frowned at him.

'Doesn't she trust me?' he thought.

"Alex, listen to me. She's the one responsible. I heard her and decided to record it. Maybe she saw me there too and she sent some men to beat me up. Look at me!" Nadine cried, moving her hair away from her face. The left side of her face that was previously covered by her hair was bruised and bloody. There was another bruise on her right cheek. Dre wondered why he hadn't noticed it before. She had to be lying. He knew that she was a psychopath, but with t

    Three months later, Xanthis steadied Dre as he helped him to the car. Dre stared blankly at the space in front of him when he settled down beside the driver seat. Xanthis sighed and got into the driver seat, jamming the door shut. "You doing okay?" He asked, although he knew his brother wasn't okay. Dre remained silent, his glassy eyes staring in front of him."I need to find Ellise" he finally said with a hoarse voice. Xanthis cringed, feeling sympathy for him. He couldn't believe had Ellise actually left when her husband needed her the most. It was a miracle that he'd survived his near death experience. Xanthis was worried about his brother's wellbeing. He just had an appointment with the doctor because he wasn't feeling well. The doctor had given Dre new medications because his heart condition was worsening. Valentino had been discharged from the hospital a month ago and he was upset whe

    Alexandre slowly opened his eyes, grimacing at the pain in his head and chest. He had gone shopping with Ellise for the baby two days ago. He got out of bed, stretching his stiff muscles before going into the bathroom. He took his bath and got dressed. While he tamed his messy hair, the door opened and Ellie stepped in. She was wearing a purple maxi. She seemed to have gained a bit of weight but she was Ellise. To Dre, even if she put on an old sack, she would still look beautiful. She made him sit down. Then, she picked up the scissors and a hairbrush."Are you okay? Xanthis told me about your recent visits to the hospital. Have you been having chest pains?" She asked as she began to reduce the length of his hair. He lowered his gaze."It's been going on for a while now. But, it's not that bad" he told her. She let out a sigh. "I'm not going anywhere. I'm going to stay with you for the rest of our lives. You must've been in so much pai

    Dre and Ellise visited Jade few hours after the traumatic revelation. Jade's baby girl was such a beauty. She had Jade's eyes and nose but she looked so much like her father. Dre and his wife returned home thereafter."I bet you're going to be a great father" she said to Dre, hugging him from behind. His body relaxed in her arms."I don't know what I'll do without you, Ellie. You're everything to me" he said.She smiled, kissing his bare back."You mean a lot to me too" she whispered."We'll get through this, I promise" he said.She nodded, closing her eyes."Aren't you tired?" He asked.She chuckled."I'm tired. My back hurts and my feet are starting to hurt" she groaned, pouting.He cupped her face, his eyes reflecting his concern for her"Oh come on. It's nothing serious. I just need a massage that's all" she whined.He gave her a small smile and led her to the bed before grabbing the massage oint

    Ellise watched her husband as he spoke with Dmitri and Dominic. After discovering that Lilly and CeCe had gone missing, it seemed like he had become a different person. The atmosphere had changed and she didn't know if it was a good thing or a bad thing. He raised his head and his gaze met hers. A shiver ran down her spine when she saw the look in his eyes. His eyes weren't dull. They were bright, so bright but not in a good way. He had a mischievous look in his eyes and a devilish smirk playing on his lips. But that was not what was scaringEllise. His knuckles were bruised and earlier that morning, she'd heard him punching the mirror. Before she could tend to his wounded hands, he'd mumbled an apology and had gone out to meet Dominic and Dmitri. She was worried that Dre had become his old self. She knew he wouldn't hurt her but she didn't know what his plans were. "Morning, El" Dominic said, winking at him."Hey, Dom. How's Jade and Anna

    Ellise watched her husband as he paced back and forth in his room. He was so tense and frustrated. He cursed under his breath, and loosed his hair from it's bun. She watched him take out a hair clip-like device. He'd refused to eat earlier, telling her he wasn't hungry. She knew he had been having nightmares too but he had shut himself off. He was so determined to find the others. He glared at the device he'd taken out from his hair and walked to the window to throw it away but somehow, he changed his mind and placed it back in his hair."What's that?" She asked."It's-"His phone rang and he picked the call, walking out of the room in a hurry. She sighed and sat down on the bed. She picked up her phone and called Amelia, asking her if she wanted to hang out. She agreed and they both went shopping. She bumped into Elvis at the mall. He didn't look good at all. She guessed he hadn't gotten over his wife's death. "Hey" he rasped, giving

    Ellise quietly struggled against her restraints, wincing at the pain on her wrists and ankles. She let out a sigh, staring at the ceilings.She was worried.Cornelia didn't want to kill her. She actually wanted Dre to die in front of her. It had been her aim all along.The day she'd poisoned Dre with some sort of gas, she'd actually wanted her to stay and watch him die."There's no use of struggling. We just have to wait a bit longer. I'm sure Alex is on his way" she said, smirking.Ellise clenched her fist, glaring at her. She grinned and squatted in front of her."Your husband loves you a lot doesn't he? He'll do anything to protect you.... to keep you safe" she said, her long fingers tracing Ellise's baby bump through her large shirt. "Don't touch me" she hissed, spitting at her. Cornelia grimaced with disgust, wiping it off."You bitch!" She growled, slapping her on the face."You're the bit

    Shocked to silence, Ellise stared at her husband who was showing her the dark part of him for the first time since she'd married him.He seemed to have become a different person entirely. He looked so relaxed and he had a very evil smirk on his face even while he was bleeding a lot. Ellise found it rather scary.Cornelia cried out in pain when another knife lodged itself on her right thigh."How does it feel? Tell me, do you like it? It's called pain. The pain you caused me can't be compared to this. I know you're insane but I'll punish you. I warned you, didn't I?" Dre said, plunging the blade of another knife into fire until it became red hot. "Please" Cornelia whimpered."What did you say?" He whispered, mockingly.She remained silent, tears rolling down her cheeks.Ellise almost felt sympathy for her but when she remembered what she'd done to her family, how she'd almost killed her husband, she felt no remorse, n

I'm sure there must be an explanation for all of this. Why would your ex do something like this?" Alex said, sitting her down on the couch. She frowned, biting her lower lip."Why would he send Cornelia? Why would he send her to do his dirty job for him and why did she do it?" She said."It just doesn't make sense.

    NOELLE "Hey, mum" I turned to look at my thirteen year old daughter as she sauntered into the kitchen, dressed in a pink dress and a bow tie on her hair. "Hey, sweetie" I said as I closed the cupboards."Dad isn't home yet" she said, leaning on the counter.I shrugged."He'll be home soon. Hope you remember that we're heading to your grandparents' home for Thanksgiving dinner?" I said and she beamed."Nope, I haven't forgotten. Rick is being such a lazy boy. He wouldn't get ready for dinner" she frowned."I'm not being a lazy boy, Hayden. You're just being insensitive" Richardo, my eleven year old son said as he strolled into the kitchen wearing a pair of dark blue jeans."Mum! Richardo just called me insensitive!" Hayden exclaimed."Rick! That's not a nice thing to say to your elder sister!" I scolded.He frowned, staring at the floor."Apologize to her" I said."But-""I said, apologize to her""I'm s

    Ellise let out a sigh, leaning against the wall as she watched different people move around in a lively manner. The whole place was nicely decorated. Men and women of high class moved about with glasses of champagne in their hands.She sighted Valentino in the far corner of the hall. He didn't look happy despite the fact that a celebration was going on. Noelle was standing beside him with her head on his shoulder as she talking to him. Ellise watched him sigh and embrace her, his eyes slipping close. She felt a painful jolt in her heart watching them embrace. She could picture herself in Noelle's position with her Dre replacing Val. It was so hard to look at her husband's brothers and not break down. At the other end of the hall stood Xanthis, he looked just as gloomy as Valentino. Tasha had embraced him from behind, whispering something in his ear. Flashbacks of her doing the same to Dre appeared in her mind and she bit her lips trying to stop the tears. A strang

    Dre's knees buckled and Ellise went down with him, cradling his head in her arms."El-""Sh, save your strength" she said, tears filling her eyes.He shook his head, more blood pouring out from his mouth."I'm s-sorry. It isn't supposed to end like this" he rasped, tears filling his eyes."Stop saying that!" She cried, trying to stop the bleeding."Y-you don't understand... I don't think I c-can survive this" he wheezed.She was sobbing at this point.Xanthis hurried to Dre's side, his face paling at the sight of his brother.Valentino had dialled 911.Dre coughed again, more blood staining his lips and chin."B-but I want you to know that- none of this is your fault. I-I might never see my kids again b-but I want you to raise them like the good mother you are-"He gasped, his eyelids slipping close.

    Ellie had a sinking feeling in her stomach as she watched Zack and his brother pull out guns. All she could think of was the possibility of loosing Dre tonight. She tried to take her mind of it but it wasn't working. Some other men walked into the room, fully armed. The fight had begun. She wasn't scared.She was purely terrified.She hugged her arms to herself as the cold air hit her skin. The thin hospital dress did nothing to warm her up. The temperature in the room had dropped considerably, she was shivering. Through the rising fog, she tried to find Dre to make sure that he was safe.All she could think of was his safety.She needed him alive.She needed him safe.She grimaced at the sounds of pained groans and moans coming from the room. She nearly gagged as the unmistakable metallic scent of blood hit her nostrils.The fog was clearing and she could see the number of bodies lying on the floor, unconscious.

    "We were wrong, Dre. We were so wrong. Look, Fletcher had three sons. They were fucking triplets! The names.... It was just to confuse us, they were three different people! Their supposed last names seemed different because they were only using their first names and middle names! There was no accident. Zack is Zack. He didn't have a face transplant. As I'm speaking to you right now, we've got two of them with some psycho men, trying to barge into the base. I don't know where the last one is but I have a bad feeling that something isn't right. Are you still at the hospital?" Xanthis asked through the phone."Yeah" Dre replied, distantly. He turned away from the exit, changing his mind completely. He needed to get back to Ellise."Go back to Ellie, mate. Things are pretty much unstable right now""I know, but you sure you guys are okay down there?" Dre asked, hurrying towards the ward."Yeah, for now. They are psychos for real. This is harder th

    'Okay, breathe Ellie.You can do this' Ellise thought as she stifled another scream. She'd woken up from a nap, only to find her sweatpants wet. The babies were coming and she was so scared. The contractions were increasing and it hurt so bad."Oh God, I can't even walk" she muttered, picking up her phone to call her husband. She bit her lower lip, her eyes glassy. When she dialled his number, he picked the call."Ellie?""Dre...oh thank God. I think the babies are coming" she croaked, sniffling weakly."Oh shit" Dre cursed under his breath. "It hurts, Dre" she whispered."Keep breathing, honey. I'll be right there in a few minutes. You can do this" he said and she nodded frantically, placing a hand on her stomach."Please, keep talking to me. I'm... scared" she whispered."I'm right here, baby. You're going to be a wonderful mother. You're going to make me a proud father. You're okay. You're doing great" he said.

    "Have I ever told you how beautiful your eyes are?" Val asked, gazing into Noelle's eyes. She smiled, giddily."No?""Then, I'm saying it now. Your eyes are stunning, Elle" he whispered.She blushed hard."Your eyes are beautiful too, Val" she said, brushing his hair out of his eyes. "But, yours are more beautiful" he winked. "I'm not having an argument with you" she pouted.He laughed."Well, we've been dating for months but I feel like I've known you far more than that. I- I just.... I don't deserve you, you know. With everything that-"His voice was shaky with emotion, her heart ached for him. She stroked the scarred side of his face. "No, don't say that. You deserve even more than me, Val. You're a great guy. You have a big heart and you're so sweet. I couldn't have asked for anything less. You're perfect" she said, caressing his face. Tears filled his eyes and a tear rolled down his left cheek.
