I looked at her, over the past few months, I could see how she had lost weight, she wore leather trousers and a leather jacket.I took a step back, standing between me and my children, as she walked closer to us.“Hmmm, look at them, so tiny and fragile,” she teased but I didn’t find her joke funny as I stared at her.My heart was beating fast, wondering how she had found us here, and how she had gotten here. “What?…aren’t you gonna let me my nephew and niece,” she said and I glared at her.“What are you doing here, how did you find us?” I asked her as I watched her suspiciously, she smirked as she looked at me.“Hmmm, you haven’t changed always throwing words around that pissed me off even the more,” she gritted through her teeth as she looked at me.“I’m pretty sure no one knew where I was so answer me,” I snared at her, and in a brief second she pulled out a gun. And pointed it at me.“Yell again, and you will lose one of these little beans,” she said with a smirk as I looked at h
I lost count of the hours we spent on air before we arrived in New York. By the time we arrived, I was numb all over, I didn’t fight anymore, and I helped my children who were bundled to prevent the cold from getting to them.I held them close to my cheats as we entered the car, the nurse beside me. The woman seemed panicked but had kept her cool for hours. I felt so much pity for her, imagining being kidnapped and forced to look after the children of a stranger.“Hey,” I whispered to her, and she looked at me panicked, I knew she was scared, and the least I could do was assure her that everything was gonna be alright, she looked at me scared and I gave her a small smile.“Everything, is gonna be alright,” I whispered and she looked at me and nobbed.“And thank you for looking after my kids I appreciate it,” I added and she looked at me and then looked away. My heart was pounding as soon as the environment started getting familiar, I could feel my heart beat faster as the car entered
She looked at me in shock which was later replaced with annoyance.“I worked hard for that fortune, I was the one who crafted everything plan and got your ass there you have no right over that fortune,” she snapped at me and I grin.“If you have a problem with that why don’t you pull a gun to my head, and fire,” I teased her, as I made a gesture with my hands and I could see how pissed off she got as she stared at me, she looked at me with so much anger in her eyes.“I would get everything I worked hard for and you would give me what I want,” she snapped at me slowly and dangerously.“And why would I do that?”I asked her with a grin on my face.“You sign all the fortune to me,” she blurted out and I couldn’t hold it anymore as I bursted out laughing, I laughed so hard and I held my stomach. I thought about the old me, who would have probably rushed to sign off my share to this manipulative woman but the new me was ready to take a stand.“And what are you gonna do if I don’t do as you
I knew I was going to fight with my hands as he approached me, but I was not going to back down. I would not submit to his oppression, no matter what he threw at me. I said, "Let me be Lucas," my voice quivering with anxiety that he would hit me. “You are my wife, I am ready to let go of the fact you ran from me, humiliating me in front of the whole world, and destroying my image,” he said and I smirked at him. “I don't remember you ever being so forgiving”, I said and he looked at me with a glare. “Looks like the death of your lover, did nothing to you, did it,” he asked with a smirk and I glared at him in an offensive way as he spoke. “Killing Damien wouldn't stop me from hating you,” I snapped at him and his smirk widened. “The children will be taken from you, I have hired a wet nurse and you will stay locked in this room until I decide what to do with you,” he growled and I looked at him with shock and bewilderment. “No, my children will stay here with me, you can't
I lay on the cold ground for hours, tears streaming down my cheeks; my baby cried, and I could not find the strength to comfort her while I wept, the weight of fear and despair pressing heavily on my chest. The door creaked open, and Maria dashed in, her face etched with concern."Are you all right?" she asked, her voice filled with concern as she helped me onto the bed. I sat up, leaning against the bed.I shook my head, unable to speak due to the sobs that were coursing through my body."Let me get the babe, she must be hungry; I could hear her from miles away," she exclaimed as she dashed to get Nadia. Maria gently placed my baby in my arms, and as she snuggled closer to me, I felt a rush of love mixed with desperation."She's hungry," Maria whispered, her eyes searching mine as if to comfort me. I smiled at the baby, and as warmth spread through my heart, I realized that his smile alone could brighten my day in any situation.I wasted no time nursing my baby, finding comfort in
Damien pov As I opened my eyes, a sharp pang of pain shot through my head, and I groaned instinctively. Sitting up, I could feel the weight of a throbbing headache, a relentless reminder of whatever had transpired. My gaze fell to my arms, noticing the bandages wrapped tightly around my left arm. What had happened? My eyes widened, as I stared deeply into it, where was I? What happens? I asked myself as I looked around me at the unfamiliar environment where I found myself. Surveying the unfamiliar room around me, a sense of disorientation settled in. It looked almost empty except for the bed that was there, and to add to that it looked dirty. Every corner seemed foreign, and every piece of furniture looked strange, I got up from The makeshift bed and walked towards the entrance, just then, the entrance door swung open, jolting me into a defensive stance. Without hesitation, I maneuvered, swiftly slipping my leg under the intruders, and sending them crashing to the g

I missed her I missed hiding her and looking at for her.Soon I was escorted to the safe house, where I found Ava there already with Ariana’s dad. I could tell the man did t like me and I paid him no mind as I approached Ava.“Tell me the situation on the ground” I demanded and she sighed.“Lucas has all men looking for you high and low, but the luck is they aren’t aware you are in New York but he is searching here too, the security had tightened, and it would be hard to get to them,” she said out of breath I loved at her.“Did you know?”I asked and she looked caught by my question.“Excuse me?, I don’t understand you,” she asked with a raised eyebrow.“Briteny, she was the one who s
