“Cadda! What are you doing here?” Miranda was gritting her teeth and balling her hands into fists to control the shiver she was feeling. How much had Caddaric heard? She anticipated that her end had come. Caddaric didn’t turn around. As a man who had control of his emotions, it was quite surprising that he was finding it very hard to control it this time, after what he had heard but if he allowed it, then all his plans would be ruined. “Put on some clothes and let’s talk.” He had just reminded Miranda that she was still in a towel, though his back was facing her. Something popped into Miranda’s mind. She was already pregnant and the earlier she slept with Caddaric, the better. Also, he seemed too calm. He might not have heard what she just said. She loosened the towel from her chest, allowing them to fall. Left in just her undies, she said in her most honey-dripping sweet voice, “Cadda, we are getting married so I don’t have anything to hide.” She couldn’t see his facial expressi
Miranda didn’t see the need to hide it anymore. Caddaric didn’t seem like he was in love with Ariana. He said that she works for her with so many good things but never said that he loved her. “Because I hate the very existence of her. I hate that you carry her along everywhere and I hate that our marriage will not be happy because of her.” Caddaric was furious to hear the venom coming out of her but also knew that this was the best time to get exactly what he wanted from her. Forcing himself to remain calm, he asked her, “So you decided to take her life? How did you intend to do it?” That was the missing part of the information he had. No one knew exactly how she wanted Ariana dead without being caught and Miranda wasn’t ready to let it out. “It’s a secret.” Caddaric’s eyes darkened. He was so close yet she won’t tell him. They’ll see about that. “But I must know or you won’t like what I will do to you.” “I won’t tell you.” Miranda knew that Caddaric wouldn’t hurt a woman so she
Since Donna had a good relationship with Casper Blade after her return ten years ago, Miranda was almost certain that her mother could talk things through with him to know about Caddaric's intentionstowards her concerning the marriage."You should keep the child as his but Mira, how could you?"Donna was greatly disappointed that something like this had gone on right under her nose. She knew about the man in the picture and told her daughter to call it quits.Miranda had assured her that it was over between her and Hansel but how could she have slept with him when Caddaric hadn't set her free?Donna was so many things in her youth but she never for once thought about another man poking her cherry when Casper hadn't freed her though she didn't want to be freed and had fought for him, whereas Jenna won in the end."I thought he was sleeping with Ariana," Miranda said through her painful jaw. It was getting worse and she needed painkillers, so she strode to the medicine cabinet to get so
Casper felt helpless. The declaration had already been made and the media had announced it. Allan had already been exposed to the Blades. Whereas, due to the nature of his work, he can’t also stay two weeks in the academy. He wished there was a way to peel the mask of sadness around his wife's charming face but there wasn’t any. He said with remorse,“They have to. I don’t know how they are going to work it out but it can’t be erased. All pregnancies should be kept secret from the Blades until after Cadda’s wedding. If Allan wins the match tomorrow, we shall set a date for his wedding with Cassa. It also means that I will have to get a private doctor to check on her.”Everyone could see how the man was doing his best to make his children happy but his power was limited. At least he didn’t take Cassandra to the Blade doctors because, unlike Ariana, Cassandra was a Blade born. For as long as she wasn’t married, pregnancy for her was a sin.“I have a doctor I can send her to,” Caddaric v
It was indeed what she was thinking. Caddaric wasn’t rough but it’s been two hours, the longest sex they ever had yet the man was nowhere near getting tired. She never saw him taking any boosters whatsoever but his energy level was just scary. Ariana realized that unlike before, he would have released a maximum of twice but she had lost count of the orgasms he gave her, and the number of times he released as well, beginning the process all over again. An hour later, the beast finally fell by her side, panting and tired. She was exhausted, amazed that she hadn’t passed out on him. “I’m sorry,” he said in her ears, afraid of if it was too much for her to take. In the academy, sex was banned. She was the first woman he tasted but always had the fear of being too hard on her. He could be hard and wild but he always wanted to be soft with her. For what he did now, he did for his sister, his unborn nephew, and Allan. It was the first time he felt so tired after sex that he could barely kee
“The stranger!!!!” The instructor echoed over the microphone with excitement but only a handful of people clapped, the rest giving a thumbs down. When Casper stood up, relieved, and began to walk towards the instructor, silence reigned instantly but most people were expecting him to reject the result. Whichever way, his words stunned them. “The rule was simple. Caddaric’s back was to be pinned to the ground. Allan, that is his name. He should not be addressed as a stranger anymore. Allan pinned Caddaric’s back to the ground. However he managed to do it is none of our business. He did, and that is that. Now, his marriage to one of my daughters, Cassandra, will be held in a week after Caddaric’s wedding with Miranda.” Casper was introducing Ariana to the Blades this way because of having taken her to the hospital earlier. Her records would still pose suspicions so the earlier the Blades knew, the better. As expected, Rudolph was curious and asked with another microphone from where th
“Donna!”Casper exclaimed, surprised to see her since she was supposed to be busy with the wedding preparations. “Casper,” Donna responded with a forced smile while she approached his desk.“I wasn’t expecting you but, have a seat,” Casper beckoned to the visitor’s chair in front of him. “Thank you,” Donna said and sat down. Casper offered her coffee and she accepted it, after which he asked.“So what brings you here? Is there a problem with the wedding arrangement?”“No. I only came by to discuss something with you,” Donna said, thinking of the best way to make her intentions known.“I’m all ears,” Casper said impassively. His expression was stoic but Donna was used to it.“Caddaric came to my house yesterday. He told Miranda to walk the aisle before him. You know that is not right in this part of the world and my daughter has been disturbed since,” she said wisely but Casper wasn’t easy to fool. He asked calmly,“Did Miranda commit any crime?”Donna stiffened, unsure as to whether
Juliet arrived at Ariana’s office, instantly brightening Ariana’s mood. “Ana, I miss you so much but it’s just been two days,” Juliet went around to Caddaric’s desk where Ariana was sitting and hugged her tightly from the back. Marshall had gone to attend to security issues while Anna monitored everything from her phone. “I missed you so much, how have you been? And did you hear from Colton again?” Ariana asked, swirling from her swivel chair to face Juillet, instantly enthusiastic. “I’m fine but I haven't heard from Colton since after the party. I have his number but I’m just afraid to call. I don’t want to be a desperate woman like Carter branded me,” Julliet said dejectedly. Carter’s words got into her, putting her in a sorry-thinking mood. It was the first time she made the first move because she had a crush on Carter from the first time she saw him at the club with Caddaric and Colton, her boldness earning her the signature of a desperate woman. “O
