She's back suspected liar
Dante's POVI watched the huge gate that housed the Rosewood Family Estate, and an uneasy feeling descended over me. Dark and ominous , it gave of dark vibes. It had been a tough choice, but I had followed Morgan not knowing that she was headed here.I had decided to park a safe but not too far distance from the estate watching to see when she'd walk out. I sighed as I leaned into my seat aware that Ronald's eyes were on me. I turned my head to him, shooting him a glare. "Are you going in or not?" He nudged his head towards the gate. "I'm not." I replied. "I don't want to." More like I shouldn't. I couldn't. If I stepped into that Estate now, and it was that Morgan was having a conversation with her dad and they saw, she'd know that I had been following her. And her dad in the other had might have a different understanding concerning whatever scene that would play out in front of him. But Ronald doesn't need to know that. Besides, Morgan had already pushed me away countless times

Morgan's POVShivers wracked my entire body. I couldn't stop sneezing. Long after Winston has arrived and taken me home, drawn a hot bath which I soaked in for thirty minutes, I was still shivering from the rain."You didn't have to take the day..." I sneezed the loudest I had ever today. When I opened my eyes, I had sneezed on his face. "I'm..." I picked up the towel he had been using in my forehead, squeezed out some of the water and began wiping his face. "I'm so sorry." He looks at me with a raised brow, blinked and took the towel from my hands. "This is exactly why I had to take the day off Morgan. You have a cold. And not only that, you're running a temperature.""You're a doctor. You have patients that need you more than I do." "Yes what is true. I have other doctors as skilled as me at the hospital. They can manage without me for a few days.""A few days?" I asked with wide eyes. He couldn't take a few days off because of some flimsy cold I caught. He was a busy doctor. And

Morgan's POV"You're home early." I said to Winston as soon as he stepped through the door. "And you're right where I left you." He said with a smile which I returned generously, walking towards me and placing his bag on the table at the centre of the sitting room before placing a hand on my forehead. I didn't tear my eyes away from his face as he checks to see if my fever still persisted. He ducked in a breath before barely sitting on the couch. "You're getting..." He paused before saying. "Your fever still has a hold on you." He finished. "Did you take the pills and the syrup?" I nodded. Still not tearing my gaze from him.Why had he come home early? "I hope you didn't have to come home early because of me." He chuckled. "And if I happened to?" I as about to straighten myself when he helped raise me up, resting me gently on the backrest of the couch. "I have a week's leave. " "You're the boss.""And my employees and myself deemed it fit to take a leave..." He paused. "And before

UNKNOWN POV"I must say... Your brains are most definitely mine." She chuckled, hugging both the man and the lady. They looked at each other, grinning widely. "The apple doesn't fall far from a tree, does it?" The woman said."I'm proud of you two." She said, hugging them tightly before letting them go. "I never thought you'd be so close to destroying Rosewood in such a small amount of time."The man spoke this time, placing a hand on both of their shoulders. "We wouldn't have been able to get it to this level without your help, mother. You were the light we followed. The light that will lead us out of this dark tunnel Rosewood has locked us in for a long time.""We wouldn't have done it without you mum." The lady said, coming to stand beside her brother. Their mum smiled, but soon the smile vanished, her son dropping his hands from her shoulder. "So what's the next move?" She asked, sipping from her glass."Morgan is already out of the way..." The man said. "All we need is to get y

Morgan's POV: "It's lovely." I gushed staring at the magical chandeliers wavering directly above giving the room an additive red tint amongst the other gold chandeliers. Our seat was at the window directly facing the entrance of the VIP suite that held ten tables of two. Specially for the best of the best. Winston pilled out a seat for me while sitting on the other one. The waitress's after taking our order, left to fetch it while I kept looking around in awe and surprise. "This is beautiful." I said for the umpteenth time. Winston smiled just as the waitress returned with our order before moving to another table to take theirs. It seemed like she was the one in charge of this suite. I took a bite of my food and nearly moaned. It was so delicious, flavours I hadn't expected burst on my tongue. "Wow, this is so good.""It's one of my favorite places to eat," Winston said. The waitress returned with a bottle of wine and served us some."Cheers," Winston raised his glass to mine. "F

Morgan's POVHe smiled at me, and that smile had me feeling things. "Is anything the problem?""No, not at all! W-why would anything be wrong?"He brought his hand up to his face and touched his cheek. I couldn't help but notice his hands. I hadn't paid much attention before, but now it was like all my senses were heightened. His hands were really beautiful. He had long and slender fingers, and his hand was much larger than mine by comparison. I wonder how his hands will feel all over my skin and...Morgan! Come on!I grabbed the glass of water, and it was empty. "You're flushed," He said. "Is everything okay?"Ha! He has no idea the direction of my thoughts right now. "I think I'm having an aftermath from my previous cold.""An aftermath?" "I think I have a fever." He got up and walked over to my side. My eyes widened."W-what are you doing?"He bent down and touched my forehead. Sparks exploded from where his hand rested on my forehead. I looked up at him, and my heavens my mouth

Morgan's POVI became aware of drifting in and out of consciousness.Strong arms wrapped around my back, and I felt warm breath on my nape. A soft kiss, fingers rubbing circles into my stomach from behind. The warmth of another body.Dante.Sunlight streamed in through the open windows, I heard birds chirping outside.Dante is with me right now . He's holding me tightly, and in his arms I have no fear.I leaned into him, a small smile on my lips. He kissed up my neck, and my body shivered."You're awake." He said.And that image of a peaceful morning I had in my head shattered.I realized it wasn't morning yet, and the sun wasn't shining through that windows. It was dark outside. And the arms around me, the body behind me didn't belong to Dante. I turned and faced Winston. He smiled at me, his eyes a tad tired. "Good morning." He said.I frowned. What the hell? How did I think it was Dante? Why am I still thinking of Dante? Worse still, while I was in Winston's arms?I sat up in a h

Morgan's POV:I found it difficult to breathe as I stared at Dante and my kids walking hand in hand towards the house. Miranda skipped around happily, her free hand holding a juice box which she drank from. Coke was asking Dante something, and he replied with a smile. I stumbled back from the window, my eyes turned to the door.A few minutes later, the doorbell rang out, making me jump. I stared at the door, and my heart thumped erratically in my chest. What do I do now? How...how did Dante get his hands on my kids? How was he able to bypass the surveillance my father had on them?Should I let him in? Or should I take my kids and slam the door in his face. The doorbell rang again. I could hear Miranda's excited squeal. "Is mommy here?" She asked."Yes dear, your mommy is here." The doorbell rang again. I gasped at the shrill sound. This is wrong, right? He shouldn't be here. This is Winston's house. Why would he....Did he know that Winston wasn't here?My phone began to ring. I to

She's back Officer Fontaine
EIGHTEEN YEARS LATER. The chill in the air warned of approaching winter. The night sky was lifeless without a single star or the moon in sight. Silent, cold, like death. On the roof of a fifteen story building were two men, one younger and the other older. The younger man had his face hidden with a dark hood, but lifeless blue eyes peered out of the darkness. He had his arms folded, muscles bulging under his hood, his skin covered with scars, bullet holes, and tattoos. He had a handsome face, quite striking. But there was no emotion on that face. He watched the street below, the people who hurried about trying to get home before the storm came. The young man stood deathly still one would think he was a statue. "Do you understand your mission?" The older man asked in a gruff voice. He walked up to the younger man's side, making sure to keep a safe distance. "Yes." The younger man replied, coldly. "And please, don't bring in dead bodies. I need them alive, are we clear?" From a
She's back EPILOGUE
THIRD PERSON POV:"You abandoned me!" Nova screamed at her brother. "Do you know what that felt like?""I fucking didn't abandon you!" Winston yelled back. "Didn't you see? I was also in jail."She screamed so loud, the men around them, had to rub their ears. "It's all that bitch's fault." She screeched. "I'll make sure to tear her apart when I see her.""You have to sit. The plane is in transit." Exhaling in anger, she sat down as the jet moved off the runway and into the air. "What of mum?"Winston smiled looking out the window. "What do you think?" Before his sister could reply, Dr. Shirley walked in, handing Winston a tablet. "It's still in position." She announced with a smile as Nova walked over to them. "What is that?" She asked."Well my dear sister," Winston said as he looked at the red flashing dot on the screen. "Four years ago, Morgan was Dr Shirley's patient. I had Dr Shirley plant a small tracking device in her."Nova gasped and faced him. She grinned impishly and wi
She's back jailbreak
Morgan's POVMy foot bounced as I waited for the video call to connect. My entire room was in a mess.Come on!The ball connected and Sabrina's face came on the screen. "Morgan?""Okay Rina. I'm freaking out!" I started as soon as she picked the call. I jumped to my feet and placed the tablet on the table. "I need your help!""My help with what?" She asked. She had a sheet mask on her face and was eating a bowl of cut apples.I picked up three gowns and held them up. "Which one?"She bummed and stroked her chin. "Hmm, this is really hard.""Oh come on." "I'm serious Morgan. I can't say. ""Just try.""Okay..." She started. She narrowed her eyes and leaned closer. "The white one... Purity... Nice. The red one... Sexy... Good. The pink one is cute and also good. How do you expect me to pick?""That's not an answer. ""What is this even for?""I have dinner with Dante."Her eyes widened and she let out a long squeak. "Oh my goodness finally! That took longer than I expected!"I rolled m
She's back a break
Morgan's POVSIX MONTHS LATER:I lowered the music blasting through my car radio as I tried to parallel park. "Morgan?!" Sabrina's voice came through the speaker. "Guess what I just saw?" I asked Sabrina on the phone as I made to park my car."What?""Listen and don't interrupt.""Okay..." From her voice, I knew she was confused but nevertheless, she'd figure it out. I cleared my throat and began to recite the headline I had just seen. "CEO Sabrina Emily Rosewood, tops the chart as the youngest CEO of Rosewood enterprises to top first three in profits, assets and company growth in less than seven months.""What the hell?" She burst out laughing. "Seriously... You shouldn't sing my praises like that. It's creepy.""I'm creepy." I said with a chuckle. I took my phone and purse and walked out of my car. I headed up to the building in front of me. "Yeah. You are." She said fondly. "I gotta go. My dad needs my help with something.""Again..." She groaned. "I barely even see you these
She's back unethical practices
Morgan's POVThe consistent ping ponging of the door bell shut me out of my haze of confusion and uncertainty. I stared at the screen of my television watching as the investigators were ceasing boxes an boxes of files from Winston's office as they announced that he had been arrested last night as an accomplice in my dad's murder. How was I supposed to take that? The man that I had lived with since I was disowned by my dad happened to have a hand in his murder. But I couldn't understand it at all. Nova killed my dad, while Winston was an accomplice. How and why? It didn't make sense. The ping-ponging continued, but it seemed too far away as I slipped back into the news. The news droned on saying the had been sent an anonymous tip and we're grateful to whoever it was."During the investigation," The anchor continued. "The police have discovered evidence of slush funds, unethical medical practices alongside malpractices and other law punishable offences that are yet to be discovered.
She's back Winston and Sabrina
Sabrina's POVI ended the call, feeling disgusted with myself. I had just lied. A lie that would come back to bite me in the ass. I hadn't told Morgan anything. Infact, I had told her that I wasn't hiding anything from her while I was hiding tons. And Winston, I wasn't looking into him one bit. I already knew everything. I had known everything since the reading of daddy's will. And here I was, going to his house as the sun was setting. By the time I got there, it was night. I rang the doorbell, and was ushered in by a butler with a smiley face as if he had been waiting for me to show up. I was led to Winston's study where he stood by the window, sipping from a glass of wine. He didn't turn nor acknowledge my presence until he had finished his glass of wine. "Does Morgan know you're here?" He finally said. His voice sending chills down my spine. "It's isn't proper of you to visit your sister's boyfriend in the dead of the night. " He turned to me with the most lifeless eyes I had e
She's back both parents
Dante's POVI rang her doorbell, shifting from one foot to another. Today, she wasn't going to push me away like before. I was going to make sure of that. The speed she used in opening the door told me that she was expecting someone. Was it Sabrina, or was it Winston? I prayed it wasn't Winston. The last thing I wanted was him him in Morgan's life. "Hey." She moved the door to shut it in my face when I blocked it with my leg. "I won't let you push me away today or ever again Morgan. ""I don't want to talk to you. I have nothing to say to you." We struggled against the door till I exhaled and poured it all out. "I know Morgan. I know. I've always know. " Her grasp loosened making me take advantage of the opportunity and opening the door "You know what?"I paused looking at her as she gasped for breath after our little struggle with the door. "I know about the kids..." She went silent. Including her breathing. "I know they're ours."I finalized, exhaling."What?" Her voice was barel
She's back Rosewood angst
Morgan's POVA knock sounded, alerting me of Mark's presence. "Hey." I nodded, stepping aside for him to enter. "You live here." He said rubbing his hands together as I moved him to the sitting room and disappeared behind the doors of the kitchen, returning with a can of soda."Sit wherever you want." I said sitting down in front of him. "Right." He sat, staring around the house. "Explain yourself." I said."Explain what..?""You." I exhaled, adjusting myself and exhaling. He nodded, setting the can down in the table in front of us. "You must have a lot of questions." He said."I sure do. And you're taking a long time to answer them.""What do you want to know?""How about everything?"He took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. "Everything. Okay. Let me start from the top. I'm Stefan's twin as you know already. He was the golden son of the family and I was the delinquent."I nodded. My father is a delinquent. Good. "My brother and I weren't on good terms because of the judgemental
She's back Dad is gone
Sabrina's POVThe stillness around the house was deafening. Morgan hadn't taken anything I had said seriously, and I couldn't blame her. I knew important things about her and didn't tell her about it. I had hurt her and even if she pushes me away when I try to make things right, I wouldn't be surprised. I deserved it. Including what the future held if I was ever to come completely clean and tell her the rest. I couldn't imagine–didn't want to imagine. It would be best for the both of us it I were to tell her the entirety of the truth, but she was still in shock about all that had happened. I couldn't add to that. My eyes drifted to the door, recalling how she had banged the door as she left, and how my mother had spoken to her. How could she be so insensitive? Did she really care for only daddy's will? Did she really love him?Morgan didn't deserve this sort of wickedness. From my mum or any other person. She had lost way too much for no reason and the last thing she needed was s
