Alexander's POVWalking into the living room and seeing my wife holding the baby girl meant everything to me. I never thought that a day would come when she would actually be in this house and take care of my baby girl and to see her holding her with care, to see love in her eyes meant a lot to me. Seeing her that way gave me hope that we could actually make things right. I want to fix things between us and I am willing to do everything I can to fix my marriage.I realise that Ella was right about me being a liar and if I want to fix things between us. We have a new family to think about and we can't be living in separate homes like we do. It has been a week since she warmed up to the baby and it has been a week since my family was all sleeping under the same roof. Ella has been keeping the kids at her house, she said that it made sense for her to stay with the kids while we sort our relationship out. I will say that she is not making things easy for me this time around. I am happy t
Ella's POVI will admit that I surprised myself when I warmes up up to the baby because I never thought that I could ever be able to hold her let alone look at her. I suppose hearing what his mum had to say was exactly what I needed to hear. I had no idea that he was not his biological mother. I realised that I had to forget the fact that my husband lied to me about the baby and focus on what's really important. I won't lie it has been a little bit challenging to have both kids with me but it is for the best. A lot of things have happened between Alexandra and me but I know that we can at least try to salvage whatever feelings we have for each other in order to make this marriage work if not for us then for the sake of our children. I believe that we have it in US to work this out especially now that I know that there are no secrets between us. I just wanted him to trust me and be honest with me. I was more upset about him lying to me than I was about him being a criminal mastermind.
Alexander's POVMy life has been fulfilling at the most, I had to experience the best of what the world has to offer, I have travelled the world, spent time with many many beautiful women but never did I think that I would one be a husband and a father. Now if I thought my was fulfilled I guess I can say that my family completes me. I never thought any of my children would have to go through what I went through but I guess destiny had its own plans for me and my kids, the pattern repeats itself. My mother had an affair with my father, after she gave birth to me she decided that she did not want to raise me, it was heart breaking to learn that the person carried me for nine months left me on my father's doorstep. I was lucky to have Esmeralda. She took me in and she loved me, she loved me more than my own biological mother. Then my son was born from a one night stand and he too was not raised by his mother, another woman took over the role of a mother and took care of him. Now I have
Ella's POVI remember when I went back to college knowing very well that I was pregnant. I wish I can say that I was happy but it was truly the most horrible time of my life because I knew that I couldn't keep my baby and that kills me inside slowly every day. I have always wanted what was best for my child and at that point I felt that it would be best for him to be raised my two people who were willing to give him something I could not, that would be a loving home.I honestly didn't know how much I would love to be your mother because right now the only thing I can think of is my children and doing what is best for them. for me that means that I have to make some difficult decisions and one of those decisions has deciding to give Alexander another chance. He has hurt me a lot these last few months but I am hoping that we could works things out for the sake of our children. I know that my situation is not an ideal one and to be honest it is a bit confusing. I told Isabella that I wa
Alexander's POVI haven't spoken to my wife and days and it is not for lack of trying on her part but only because of I have been so busy lately. I have had several meetings that I had to go through because I know that there is a possibility that my wife would want to take over the company since it is rightfully hers. I know that she has a good business head on her shoulders. I was not kidding when I told her that our future is in our hands because it really is. That company is our family legacy. I know that she has questions about me and everything else but at the end of the day this is for her. I am doing all of this for us and our children. I am glad to see that she has become a mother to both out children, baby Mia is always with her. She loves her and that is all I ever wanted. I have not been with my family for a few days now but now I need some adult time with my wife. Which is why I planned this trip for us, to rekindle the spark.I drove to her house, I saw her car parked ou
Ella's POVI have been keeping a lot to myself as of late and I never really realised just how much I needed someone to talk to until I met Michelle and now I just simply can't imagine how I have went through my whole entire life without telling a friend like her in my life. She sees life on her own terms and she is also very much matured. She puts things in a way that you can understand them and mostly she gives me some pretty good advice. She is not biased like my best friend Isabella.I mean Alexander and I grew up around her, she knows him as much as she knows me but unlike Alexander, she actually likes me and so she is always protective of me. It is like she just wants to protect me from the world itself but mostly her cousin, I know that she is not actually fond of him so I know that she won't give me the advise I truly need. She has made up some pretty good points but then again at the end of the day, I have responsibilities I can't run away from. After the lunch with the both
Tatiana's POV" Just in, flamboyant billionaire CEO of Black Enterprise's Alexander Black and his wife Mrs Black are rumoured to have resolved their issues, As we all know the celebrity couple were said to be heading for divorce after they both moved into separate homes, sources close to the couple say that they have gone on a second honeymoon, the Blacks..." The reporter said and I switched off the TV before she could finish what she was saying. I threw the remote across the room. I can't get it and I really do not understand it. I mean how can Alexandra and that fat pig of his get back together and I don't understand how the public treats her like royalty. I mean I am the one who should be with him and not her. I thought that I had Alexandra where I wanted him because I didn't think that a man like him would want to erase a little baby on his own. I had hoped that he would soon realise that he couldn't do it and that he would call me to come back and everything so that we can raise
Alexander's POV" Where are we?" Ella asked me as we got off the plane." You will find out soon enough..." I said with a smile and took her hand. I led her into the car that was already waiting for us at the airstrip. I am glad that she agreed to come with me despite not knowing where we were going and I am confident that this weekend is exactly what we need and that by the end of this weekend we will have sorted everything out.I have never considered myself to be a romantic man but I know women and in this case I know my wife. unlike so many other women that I have been with before my wife doesn't really care much about a cereal things and I admire her for that but that doesn't mean that I am not going to try and give her the best of everything. I know that she has seen the restaurant, I saw it on the security footage that I had installed in the restaurant and I am sure that she has questions about that. I was not about to let her give on her vision. I was at the restaurant earlie
Alexander's POV **** Fifteen Years Later**** " I am sorry Mr Black but we can't allow him to come back to this institute, your son is brilliant, he has a brilliant mind but he is the worst student this institution has had. " The Dean of students said to me. This is the fourth call she has made to me in the last two months about my son, he has been involved in fights and brawls ever since he went to university. I have three other children that I need to worry about and the person I should be least worried about is giving me stress. " I am sorry Dean, I will talk to him. " I said to the Dean. " Mr Black I don't think you hear me, we are beyond talking at this point, your son has proven time and again that he doesn't want to be here. " She said to me. " Dean I heard through the grapevine that you are about to host a gala dinner, something about raising funds for a new division at the university. " I said to her. " We haven't made a notice, how do you know about this?" She asked me.
Alexander's POVI knew something was up with Jack when he kept on dissappearing without any explanations. Not only that but he kept on asking me to give Michelle a job so that she would miss the wedding. I know that we have a lot of history together, that we are basically brothers but I don't know if I can let my wife down like that. Ella doesn't have that many friends, she only has two that she holds close to her heart, that would be Isabella and Michelle, both of which are part of the wedding celebration. The same wedding celebration I flew everyone here for, I booked out an entire resort for everyone. I didn't even understand why he would ask me that so I told him that I wanted a reason why he would even ask me to do something like that, especially after I told him that I want this wedding be perfect, I told him that Ella has to have the wedding of her dreams, if she had told me that she wanted to have dolphins at our wedding, believe me when I tell you that I would have made it h
Ella's POVThe last couple of days have been stressful, having a destination wedding is never easy. I wanted a beach wedding out of the country. I know that Tatiana is behind bars but after all that she has done to me, I can't let my guard down. I didn't tell Alexander but I have been having nightmares about the day of the shooting, I keep on releaving that moment in my mind, I wish I can say that being shot at was the worst part of it but it was not, it was the way Alexander looked at her that scares me to death. I can't help feeling like she will always find a way to ruin my marriage, to ruin the good thing I have going with my husband and family. I know that as long as she is truly out there, I will never be truly happy. She might be in jail but she won't be there forever. I have a fear that one day when I am truly happy, when my children and husband are happy, she will come and turn our lives upside down. She will snatch everything away from me. I have had to put Brad through ca
Alexander's POVI don't usually follow people's advice, especially when it comes to my personal life, I thought that I had all the answers, that I could really be a different man but I soon realised that I was wrong. I suppose talking to Minty helped me to make a few things clear for me, it made me realise what I wanted and why I wanted it. At first I was doing BDSM to deal with issues I couldn't control, I never thought that there was another reason for doing it but after I talked to Minty, I realised that I was using my troubles as an excuse. The truth is that I have always been that kind of a man. I have always had a taste for the extreme, from jumping out of the plane to diving with the Sharks, I have always been the one to live on the edge so my sexual tastes was also extreme. Even before I knew about the BDSM works I always had a thing for bondage and spanking but even then, not even when I was drunk out of my mind, I never did it to Ella, I didn't even think I could. I am abo
Ella's POVIt has been days since the Gala dinner and I honestly don't know what happened but I have been seeing a lot of changes in my husband and as much as I told him to stop buying me expensive gifts, it is like he is purposely trying to ignore me. On top of a very expensive necklace that he got me, he decided to get me an art piece, a very expensive art piece. Last night we went to an art gallery, one of his friends was having his work shown there and so he invited Alexander. It was the first time I set foot in a place like that, up until last night I didn't really think much about art. To me a painting was just a painting and a statue was just a statue but that changed last night. His friend had one of his destopian art pieces and I fell in love with it instantly. The statue was just full of life, the raw materials used were just out of this world and I could somehow imagine that in our home. I didn't tell Alexander that I wanted it, but I told him that I liked it and this morn
Alexander's POVI don't know how she managed to pull this off but I am happy with the work that she has put in to make this night a success. I will also say that I didn't think that I would see some of the faces I saw here tonight, especially faces that had no business being here. I am talking about the women in my past, the women I have had to let go and all for various reasons. I also realised that my parents were happy about the work my wife has put in to make this night a success. I still can't believe that this is where we are, that we are finally going to get everything we have always wanted. In a week I will see my wife walking down the isle once again and this time, I can't even wait for the day to come. I am at a place in my life where I feel like everything has finally fallen into place. I am about to become a father again and I will tell you now that there is no title in my life that I hold in high regard than the title of father. Two years ago I was not even thinking abo
Ella's POVIt has been three weeks since I got shot, three weeks since I have been back home with my family and I am only a week away from my wedding day, not only have I been planning my wedding, I have been planning the restaurant's official opening and also tonight's Gala dinner. It is the first time I have had to throw a party so big but with the help of my friends I was able to pull it off. It is an annual event that was had been organised by his mother since it was founded a decade ago. I will admit that I never thought that my life would turn out like this. That I would be a wife to a man like Alexander or even the fact that I would be responsible for events like the one I organised tonight. Alexander's mother said that she was tired of running the organisation and that it needed some fresh blood, I was not too keen on the idea of taking on something as big as this and in such a limited space of time. The gunshot wound was healing and now I felt like I was ready to take on the
Alexander's POV I did not want my wife to find out about my previous lifestyle and what used to happen between me and my ex's. I know that if it was up to me she wouldn't have found out at all but she wanted to know and I told her. I told her what was happening and I thought that she would ask me for details which would have been the worst because I don't think I could have been able to utter the words to her. The more I thought of it, the more I hated myself for it. All this time I thought that I was using Lacey as a coping mechanism but that is not true. The truth I that I was taking it all out on her because I was not dealing with things. I also realise that my wife was right when she said that I could not cut off that part of me like it didn't exist. I didn't want to hear that especially coming from her but that still doesn't change the fact that she was right but I also know that I can never do to her what I did to all those other women. I told her and left because I didn't wa
Ella's POVI will be the first to admit that Alexander caught me completely by surprise. I know that the insurance said that they would take some time to pay out and I was wondering if I was even able to start all over from the start again. I had put in a lot of work into making that restaurant what it was before that crazy woman burnt it all down. I kept on asking myself what I had done to have so much bad luck and now I know that it had nothing to do with bad luck at all. It had to do with the fact that another woman wanted my husband so bad that she was willing to ruin everything I had in order to get what she wanted and for a moment it seemed like she was going to do it, that she was going to get everything I had. My husband, my daughter and even my marriage. After weeks of worrying about my son, I couldn't just sit and do nothing. I don't know what I would have done if it was not for Michelle, she really came through for me and I don't even know how to thank her. I don't know w
