Aveline opened the envelope and saw it was a dossier on her.She read it and realized that they were details of her past before she had been adopted.Tears started running down her cheeks when she saw the details of her sister."Camille? Camille is my own sister?" Ava asked looking up at Zayed and he nodded with a small smile on his lips.They heard footsteps running along the corridor and looked up to see Camille running towards her with teary eyes."Bebe" Camille whispered looking at Ava"Cami" Ava whispered They hugged each other as if their life depended on it and cried their lungs out.Then Salim explained how Zayed had been digging up Ava's past ever since he knew Ava was adopted. And how surprised they were to find out last week that Camille and Aveline are long lost sisters.Salim also apologised to Camille, for not using his resources and trying to find her sister long back.Ava looked up to see Zayed standing in a corner with Salim and looking at them.When their eyes met,
Zian, it seems, is enthralled with the zoo. He has appointed himself as the personal tour guide for his family as if he knows every nook and corner of the zoo.He is visiting this zoo for the first time, for crying out loud.Zayed saw his son's nose pressed against the glass case housing some alarmingly large tarantulas and asked in bewilderment "You like spiders??""Yes papa, big hairy ones" Zian confirmedPapa. He still gets a high on hearing that.He felt as if he has won a million dollar lottery when his daughter first called him papa, the day before he left for Paris. They all were tired after a day spent at the Disneyland, but it seems like his two sons are a never ending ball of energy. Zada had made him promise that he would take her to meet princess Rapunzel when they come to Paris.And Zian followed the demand with his own, of visiting a zoo.And his elder son was not very particular about what he wants.Zahir seems to want everything he can get his hands on."Wow, aren't
Arabian Nation of ZidraZayed stared out through the glass windows of his sky office building in Zidra.It has been forty eight hours since their return from Paris.The Paris trip was supposed to be a turning point in their relationship. He was supposed to win her over and start a new life with her.But everything went south after they made passionate love whole night. The next morning saw a different Aveline.A wounded Aveline.And it was his fault. His fault alone."Sire, here is the tender for the new resort" Zayed's PA said, as he came in with a file."Which company won the tender?" Zayed asked taking the file from his PA."It's an Indian company, Sire. They are an upcoming group. But the one resort they built in India is a success. Their second project is under construction. So far, the work done is wonderful. I think they will be the best for our new resort. The CEOs are young blood. With creative ideas." the other man said"SM groups?" Zayed asked, looking at the file."Yes, S
Arabian Nation Of ZidraZayed stared at the oil minister furiously. "How the hell did this happen?" Zayed's voice boomed in the minister's cabin"It was approved from the Royal House of Zidra. I proceeded only after I got the go ahead" the minister said, sweating."Rubbish. This document never came to my table." Zayed said"With due respect, your highness, you weren't in Zidra for quite a few months. You had relegated the work to other people" the minister pointed out slyly"My works were relegated only to Basim" Zayed thundered making the minister flinch lightly. But he was quick to compose himself"Who also left Zidra not long after you" the minister said making the brothers more and more furious. "What the hell is your point? People are fighting for life because of your carelessness. Where did the approved budget money go to, if you had used such low quality rigs for the oil factory?" Basim asked"Bloody greedy people. It's about time we formed a new ministry here." Zayed muttere
"You look very pretty aunty" Zahir said with a cheeky smile and Ameya laughed out loud."Aren't you a little charmer??" Ameya asked lightly pinching his cheeksAva shook her head in disbelief.At five, Zahir is flirting like a pro. Twenty years from now she can't even imagine how he is gonna be.They are travelling on the Ahmed's private jet to US for a business meeting and Ava took the triplets along with her.She needs an armor when facing ZayedAfter seeing the divorce papers, she hadn't had wink of sleep.She looked at Zahir, charming the socks off Ameya and a pretty air hostess and she remembered the call she got from the triplets class teacher on a friday evening Apparently Zahir has been promising the girls in his class marriage."Mrs Ahmed, Zahir had promised to marry two girls in the class and they both were fighting over him today. Just warn him not to do it again" the teacher had said.Ava had called the triplets for a talk "Zahir? Did you promise to marry two girls in y
Ava walked into the cafe where she was supposed to meet Brianna and was instantly led to the table where a woman in her late twenties is waiting for her....So this is Brianna Cooper!"Aveline" Brianna murmured smoothly. "I am so grateful that you agreed to come, but let's not tell Zayed about this. Men hate it when we go behind their backs." Brianna added with a cheeky smileAva took due note of the fact that her husband's ex girlfriend was more scared of consequences than she was. As Ava had no intention of keeping their meeting a secret unless it suited her to do so, she did not reply."I didn't think that Zayed would ever marry" the woman said plaintively."But we're adults. There's no reason why we can't be, er ... distant friends"Only one, Ava completed inwardly. If you have any intention to sleep with my husband I might try to murder you."Zayed and I have been in a very intimate relationship for more than five years. Then we had a fall out. I did hurt him pretty badly. And I
Zayed had already cancelled further appointments of the and left the cafe where he was meeting with his friends, when the news that Aveline had met up with Brianna hit him like a torpedo and almost blown him out of the water. Where had that come from? How had that happened?What had he done to deserve that outcome?Leaving the cafe, Ava was blank-eyed, her mind in chaos and emotions raging through her in horribly distressing waves. She didn't know where she was going but she knew she couldn't return to the hotel in such a state, nor would she involve the triplets when she was so upset.Ava was brought out of her raging emotions when the car came to a sudden halt in the middle of the road.She looked out to see Zayrd coming out of another car."Max, take us to my apartment" Zayed instructed his bodyguard/driver as soon as he settled into the car next to her.So he has an apartment here in US and he has housed her and the triplets in a hotel room?Why should that surprise her after
"I am not involved with Brianna. How could you even think that I would do something like that?" Zayed choked out, hurt slicing through his heart"You once believed me capable of doing such a thing. Why shouldn't I ??" Ava retorted unapologetically "I deserved that" Zayed mumbled almost inaudibly"Aveline, habibti. I know I have hurt you badly in the past. Nothing can be changed. Give me a chance to change our future Please. I am so sorry for everything that happened" Zayed said, tentatively taking her hands in his and pulling her on to the couch, and he kneeled in front of her."You were telling me about Brianna" Ava prompted"Yes Brianna. I don't know if you are aware that I was a drug addict, Aveline" Zayed mumbled shamefacedly.He was a coward. He used used drugs to escape his painful life "I know" Ava whispered. She had known about this from his sister Mizna."Brianna supported me a lot during that time. Helped me in healing. And that was one of the reasons I asked her to move
BLURB ******* Have you not heard about the term bro-code If you have ,you must very well know the top most code in the list of bro-codes will always be 'best friend's sisters are off limits.' So let's see how beyond control is falling for your best friend's sister for Liam Fredrick ,your typical college bad boy. ********** Does a sis code exist?? Not sure huh? As much as brothers hate their sister falling for their best friend, it's exactly the opposite when it comes to the sisters, don't you think so?? They would be the happiest to play cupid for their brother and best friend So let's see how Zian Ahmed, the good boy, (compared to his twin 😉) falls head over heels for the very cute, very bubbly and very weird Emma Hart ,his sister's new best friend... ********** And last but not the least Opposites attract, they say. That's physics. But what did we study in chemistry? Like dissolves like.. Isn't it? What would happen when two headstrong egoistic and fiery people co
"I, Zayed Ahmed al Zidra, hereby accept my role as the ruling Sheikh of the Sultanate of Zidra. I shall continue to preserve, and build upon the royal legacy and shall reign with righteousness for the benefit and happiness of the people forever" Zayed vowed, as he stood on the podium, with his right palm over his chest and his eyes staring straight ahead at the people of Zidra. "I invite everyone here to share my determination and work together for the nation’s prosperity and the people’s happiness as the ultimate goals" Zayed added His brothers were standing on either side as he made his vows to his nation and his people. The ceremony was followed by a large feast for the entire Zidra. The security has been strengthened as there were many people attending the ceremony, including dignitaries from the other countries. "Papa, there is a baby there. Zaif is playing with him" Zada said excitedly, pointing at the one year old baby boy playing with little Zaif. There was a green eyed g
Arabian Nation Of Zidra "So? Ready to take on the role?" Salim asked with a smile "As ready as I could ever be" Zayed said grumpily "You are born for this, Zayed. This is your birthright. You are going to love it" Salim said "No. You are wrong. It was your position, Salim. I don't think I will ever be able to overcome that fact. And how will I love something that I was never prepared for?" Zayed asked Salim chuckled. "Seven years ago, you were an artist, Zayed. A reclusive artist who had no interest in anything other than the artworks he created'' Salim pointed out "So? What's your point?" Zayed asked in irritation "And then you stepped into Zidra's oil business. Do I need to remind you that you excelled in it?" Salim asked "That's different" Zayed argued "Not really. Business is something you never fancied. Yet, over the years you started enjoying the thrill it gives. You love Zidra and our people, so there is no doubt that you are going to love this" Salim said "He is righ
SWEDEN"Just two more days" Zayed said with a sigh"We will take short vacations like this in the future too. Stop getting anxious about it. I know you are going to take a very important responsibility. One you weren't prepared for. But I am sure you will do it perfectly" Aveline said with a smile."I hope so" Zayed said"Where is Zian?" Zayed asked, seeing Zahir and Zada running around inside the house."He is outside. With Rocky" Aveline said"I think someone is moving in next door" Zayed said"Oh? Who said?" Aveline asked"I just saw the real estate agent who arranged this cottage for us. She was waiting for her clients. She said the deal is an almost done deal" Zayed said with a shrug."Papa! Papa! Can we have pizza? Pretty please?" Zada asked, running towards me."I want that one with cheese inside" Zahir demanded Of course, you wouldn't hear a please from him. Ever!"What have momma taught you, Zahir? When you ask for something?" Zayed asked sternly"But Zada already said it fo
"Last week of freedom" Zayed mumbled against Aveline's shoulder, as they cuddled closer in the bed.They were in Scotland, having a family vacation before taking over the throne and getting themselves involved in the matters of the nation."Sometimes it scares the hell out of me" Aveline said, and Zayed tightened his grip around her.He could understand that. He himself is worried.Taking over a position he was never prepared for."We will go through this together. And together we will be stronger" he said"I know" Aveline said with a smile"Are the little monsters asleep?" Zayed asked, dreading the moment they would come beating down their bedroom door.Aveline chuckled seeing the disgruntled look on her husband's face."They are. They were tired as hell after the long journey. Hopefully they will sleep through the night" Aveline said"Oh I really do hope," Zayed said, making Ava laugh."I think it's about time we taught them about privacy. They just can't always barge into our bedro
*At school* "I will miss you, Emily" Zada said hugging Emily tightly. It was their last day at school. They might never meet the kindergarten friends again. "I will miss you too. And I will miss Zian also" Emily said and Zahir made a face at that Aaron stood there with a fallen face. His first crush is going far away. "Momma and Papa is here" Zian said as he saw his parents walking towards them with baby Zaif secure in their arms. Emily grinned seeing the wrapped up baby. "Aunty? You took the baby out of your tummy? Wow!!" Emily asked excitedly. The last time she saw them, the baby was inside the aunt's tummy and she was dying to see the baby after it comes out. Maybe I should tell Maa and Paa that I also want a baby, she thought to herself. Aveline smiled seeing the little girl's excitement. "Haa. The baby got bigger, so we took him out" Aveline said with a soft smile "Can I see? Can I see?" Emily asked jumping on her feet and trying to take a peek at the little one. "No.
A few months later, LondonZayed was on a call from Salim."So? All wound up?" Salim asked"Almost. It's the last day of school for the brats. Then a short vacation at Scotland and we will be back to Zidra" Zayed explained his plans to his older brother, who was currently handling the political issues in Zidra, with Karim and Khalil."Scotland? When was that plan made?" Salim asked in confusion, because he was unaware of it until now"Made plans today morning only. Want a week for ourselves away from everything, before I take up the big responsibility" Zayed said, still dreading the huge responsibility waiting for him."Okay then. Have a good stay. I have a friend in Scotland. He has a resort there. I can make arrangements for you there" Salim offered "Uh no, Salim. I want to stay somewhere low key. Where nobody knows us." Zayed said and Salim hummed in understanding "Okay then, brother. See you in a week. And ask Basim to stop dilly dallying there. He came over there directly after
A couple of months later, The Ahmed Palace was decked up like a bride for the their national day celebrations The Ahmed brothers did the main prayer together as usual. "Let the bond only get stronger, touchwood," Fatima, their grandmother, said, warding off any evil eyes with a hand gesture. After the brothers did the aarti, Zayed and Basim stepped back so that their sister in law and Salim could do the prayer. No matter what, Salim and Camille will always do it together first. They aren't going to change that tradition to please anybody. "Zayed, please hold Anya for a moment" Camille said, handing over her one month old precious bundle to Zayed who took her happily. "Awwlee Is uncle's cutie pie awake?? Are you bored?? Don't worry, you will have a little brother or sister to play with and boss around soon" Zayed said cuddling the baby closer. Once Salim and Camille did the prayer, Salim took his daughter from Zayed and cuddled her closer. Zayed walked over to a heavily pregna
“How are you taking it?” Zayed asked, wrapping an arm around his wife’s bulging tummy from behind, as she stood near the window, gazing into the deserts. “Honestly? Feelings are mixed” Aveline said with a deep sigh “You know you can share anything with me, habibti” Zayed murmured against her ears. Aveline leaned back against his chest and placed her hands above his. “I know” “Then tell me” Zayed prompted “I am happy that you are embracing your birthright, Zayed. But at the same time, I know you never wanted this. Your passion is art. And you had to give it up and choose business due to many circumstances in your life. One being me” Aveline said “It's not because of you” Zayed protested “And now when you start enjoying this business field, another change. I am worried it will affect you emotionally to a greater extent than you imagine” Aveline said and a smile grazed his lips, revelling in her concern for him. “I have you by my side. Why should I worry then” Zayed said and Avel
