[ Evangeline ]

I closed the file I was reading, I decided to come to office because it would be no help to stay at home and sulk, at least, work keeps me busy for the most of the day. I glanced at the digital clock placed on my desk.

"Two more hours. What should I do?"I murmured to myself. There was not much work for me as I had already prepared my monthly report and other marketing survey. I just have to show them to Dominic who was busy lately in a meeting with someone. I leaned on my chair and closed my eyes to give a relax to my brain and eyes.

My mind drifted back to Chase. The boy is everything for me, my only family. It pained me I can't give him what he needs the most, a father.

I can definitely raise my son alone but at the same time I can't play the role of both parents sooner or later he will demand to know about his father and that moment I have to reveal him the whole truth.

He will question me more than I hate to admit, perhaps, he will leave me and choose Colton for hid

I don't think she should meet him if she thinks he tried to kill her and further more she should let him just take her to court but not marry Dom for that reason he likes her more than a friend.

    [ Evangeline ]I felt light hearted when I walked out of the Church after two hours sermon. It gave me solace, ignited a ray of hope to fight upcoming battle against the past demons, I tried to figure out the solution of my problems when I saw all door closed leaving me in a labyrinth of confusion and conflicting dilemma.It was 10:45 AM which meant I still had time to reach on my next destination so I waited for a bus rather than hiring a cab. I earned enough for both of us or buy a car but I do believe in saving single pennies. There was a time when I used to sleep without food for days and proper clothes in winter.Throughout the journey to the restaurant my mind debated with my actions. Whatever I was doing or going to do would leave me either to the end of my miseries or push me into another swamp of misfortune.I stepped down from the bus as I reached at the nearby bus stop. I wore a simple lime green midi dress which ended just below my knees. I like my black pumps usually I pr

    [ Evangeline ]The meeting with Colton went the way I wanted it to be except when he told me about my grieving parents. I felt guilty of not contacting them in years and it had been weighing over my chest like a million ton rock.I need to see them sooner and seek their forgiveness, if they'll gather themselves to pardon me for neglecting them.A part of me wanted to pretend that the last few days never happened and I can live a peaceful life with my son. I wish like my death, the past when I decided to marry Colton would also change but the marriage also gave me the only but the most beautiful blessing, my Chase.My phone suddenly ran which made me jump in surprise as I was deeply lost in the momery lane. It showed Dominic's number on the screen.I swiped it quickly and put it near my ear,"Hello, Dom." I greeted him."Thank God! You're alive, Eve. I was about to break into your house if you didn't answer my call." I heard Dom sighing on the other side.Wait a minute! He's outside my

    [ Colton ]"Sir, Mrs. Black is on her way to your office. Should I send her in or..." Hendrick paused and gauged my reaction. He couldn't risk his job by disrespecting the Boss's wife but currently I wasn't in a mood to see or talk to anyone.My meeting with Evangeline went off the track. That wily woman crushed all my positive hopes to be with my son without any tricks and hostility."Sir?" Hendrick called out my name again to grab my attention."Send her in." I sighed pinching the bridge of my nose.He nodded his head and left.Evanca returned from her trip late night. I spent the whole night in my home office and she must be probably exhausted from the journey that we didn't see each other even at the breakfast table. After dropping Mia at school, I directly drove to my office to divert my mind from my personal life temporarily but it didn't work.My mind kept going back on Chase. My desire to be with my son had been increasing and deepening with each passing day. I wanted to be wi

    [ Colton ]"This..this..can't be serious. She can't do this to me." I threw a paperweight on the screen which made Evanca jump in fear but my anger had no bounds, I felt betrayed and fooled by her."Col baby, what are you doing?" Evanca tried to grab hold of my hand but I shoved her away."Just..just leave me alone, Evanca." I closed my eyes to refrain myself from hurting her and right then, I wasn't myself."No, I am not going anywhere unless you tell me why this news bothers you?" She crossed her arms."I said leave me alone, Evanca or I will do something that we both are going to regret later." I warned her again, my patience with her running thin as I had to make a few urgent calls to verify the viral news but she didn't seem to understand my mental status.I pressed the intercom, completely ignoring her. In the next one minute, Hendrick rushed into the office, his eyes widened in surprise when he saw the mess I created."Yes..yes Sir." He then diverted his attention on me."Cance

    [ Evangeline ]"I knew it was a bad idea, Dom but you said that it would work but I am not sure anymore. Chase isn't talking to us." I rubbed my forehead as the migraine was getting worse.He placed his hand gently on my shoulder,"Give him some time, Eve. He's a child and their psychological state is sensitive. He always saw me as his uncle and god father but now, he has to accept me as a father figure which he never had. Please, don't stress yourself, I beg you, Evangeline." He said in a comforting way but it failed to ease my anxiety over my son's behavior."He hasn't said a word to me or you since he heard us talking of marriage, Dom. He even refused to accompany us to the marriage registration office. I don't care what Colton would do but I am afraid of my son's heartbreak. He's hurt and it's killing me too." I leaned on his shoulder."Let's try again to talk to him once he returns from school. We can take him out for dinner at his favorite KFC restaurant and then we'd make him un

    [ Evangeline ]"My baby, how do you feel now?" I stroked Chase's hairs while trying my best to control my tears from spilling. He was laying on the bed, eyes closed but his face was white.He slowly fluttered them open and blinked a few times to adjust his vision in the bright light of the room."Mom..Mommy?" He said in a very weak voice and coughed."Hey, baby shhh...I am right here. You're okay now." I stroked his head to make him feel comfortable."Hey buddy, here, please drink some water." Dominic tilted his head slightly to help him in drinking some water."Do you feel better now, Chase?" Principal Woods, who shrank in a corner after Dominic threatened to drag the school and the responsibile teachers in the court."I am good now, Sir." He smiled faintly at his Principal and then turned to look at me,"Mommy, please take me home, this bed is not comfortable." He tucked his tiny hand with mine."Yes, baby, we'll take you home soon but right now, you need more rest before we take you

    [ Evangeline ]"Chase baby, shall we go back to our home now if you feel okay to travel?" I asked my boy softly, his still looked tired but the doctor said that he was fine. They ran all the test to ensure his health.Oh I forgot to mention that Dominic called the best doctors of the most expensive hospital in the city to examine Chase."Yeah, Mommy but you promise me to make my favorite cheese sandwich and hot chocolate." He blinked his big eyes at me."I will, now let Uncle Dom pick you up and before you say that you're a strong man, let me say that you are tired and weak to walk by yourself." I reminded him. A part of me felt elated that he finally talked to me after days since he heard of our marriage."Chase, hey buddy, come here. I'll pick you or you can take a ride on my back if you wish." Dominic tried to break the ice between them.Chase looked up at a waiting Dominic but instead of a vocal response, he slowly nodded his head."Good, now come here." He stretched his arms for

    [ Colton ]"Evana!""Evanca, where the hell are you?" I yelled as I entered in the mansion."Evanca Black, I want you to be here right now." I roared again but there's no sign of her. My house staff scrambled away in fear. They didn't want to become a victim of my wrath.I pointed my finger at a maid whose body was trembling like a dried leaf,"Where is Mrs. Black?" I asked her, my anger was reaching on a dangerous point."She..she..isn't home yet, Sir." She stammered with her answer.I ran my fingers through my hairs. Evanca's jealousy created more challenges for me and the little hope I built to get my son, now seemed to disappear. Dominic and Evangeline would use Evanca's threat and bullying Chase will be considered as a testimony in the court and if their lawyers present it with excellence, I'd never be able to see my son let alone winning his custody."Sir?" Her timid voice forced me to glare at her. I hate when people bother me without my permission to let them speak."What? Do y

    [ Brandon ]I groaned in annoyance as the sunrays falling on my face forced me to wake up. I hardly got time to rest during week days and the day was the only day when I could get some sleep and spend time with my family.I patted the space beside me to pull Emma closer to me but much to my dismay, the space was cold and empty. She had already woken up."I hate mornings." I sat straight on my bed and ran my fingers through my messy hairs. I winced when I felt pain on my back."Emma Black, you're totally a vixen." I muttered as they were scratches given by her last night.I glanced at the time, it showed seven fifteen in the morning. I didn't intend to wake up this early but I wasn't going to catch sleep again. So, I dragged my body out of the bed and rushed to bathroom to do my mornings business before I search for my lovely wife and my bundle of joy, our son. Who was quite a naughty boy for his two years old age.I felt my muscles relaxing under the luke warm water. After fifteen min

    [ Emma ]I had no words to describe how those three seconds felt when the obsessive woman shot the gun and the sound resonated in the air.My ear begun to ring and vision got blurred for a moment."Emma!"Brandon's ear deafening scream followed breaking the silence and I found myself pressed to his chest."You're okay?" He asked checking my face and body for any possible sign of injury."Yes..yess."I somehow whispered and buried my face more on his chest. I could practically count his heartbeats. I was still shaking in the trauma. If I wasn't hurt, Brandon looked fine then who was the victim?"I was scared to death but thank god you're fine, love." He showered my face with kisses."Ahh, you..you son of a bi..bitch ahh." A painful whimper forced us to follow the voice and I felt bile rising in my throat when I saw blood on the floor and a wounded Fiona shooting daggers at us."Thank God, I walked in at the right moment. This bitch has always gotten into my nerves." Mrs. Black's voice e

    [ Brandon ]Emma's courageous come back on Fiona left me in complete shock and it resulted in every single fibre in my body to drown in guilt. I indeed took her as damsel in distress unintentionally. I actually never tried to see through her.There was a tigress in a fawn's skin. Emma didn't flinch or intimidated by Fiona, the woman who could bring the universe down just by a single glare of her cunning eyes.Emma faced her with no fear and actually warned her to stay out of our lives. Well, I wanted it to be like this way but I had a feeling that the storm was approaching us.A week had passed since our meeting with Fiona at the restaurant. Our life fell back on normal routine and luckily we got a Sunday together to relax at home."Umm..yeah, just like this." She moaned sweetly, her head dropping back while I moved inside her on a very slow pace.Her pregnancy hormones turned her into a wild vixen, nowadays she wanted sex more than I did and currently we were having sex in the music

    [ Emma ]"Emma Black?" The beautiful woman smiled at me like she knew me for years."Do I know you?" I asked her straight. I might had sounded rude but one thing I learnt from Brandon, being too polite or good to others may backfire sometimes."No, you don't." She shook her head slightly, her smile not leaving her plum lips,"But you're the woman who changed Don. He's a complete opposite person than I knew him once. I like this version of him." She talked in riddles."Don? Who is Don?" I frowned and honestly she started getting into my nerves. I wanted to walk away as the earlier encounter with Brandon was taking a toll over me but her magnetic personality caught me there."Oh sorry, I thought he told you-" She started but her rest of the words died down in her throat when we felt the intimidating presence of Brandon.He snaked his arm around my waist and I felt thankul that he came on mean time. She was giving me a creepy vibe."Don, you're here. What a pleasant surprise!" She exclaim

    [ Emma ]"This dress is looking pretty on you, Ma'am. Black is your color." Rachel, who was assisting me to get ready for my date and after trying half dozen dresses, she approved the black bodycon dress with a sweetheart neck and quarter sleeve."You sure?" I glanced at her and again checked my reflection in the mirror. The dress fit me perfectly."Yes, Ma'am, this one is perfect for your dinner date. Mr. Black won't be able to take his eyes off you." She said in a teasing way."My husband can't ever keep his hands and eyes off from me, it really doesn't matter what I wear or how I look, Rachel." I said."That's, true. We have never seen him this happy before. You changed him." She replied while doing my hairs."You shouldn't tie your hairs, they look more prettier when you leave them open, Ma'am. She commented."You have a good knowledge of hair and styling. You should had persue your career in that." I said to her.A sad smile appeared on her face,"I thought about it but sometimes o

    [ Brandon ]It had been three days since we returned from Seattle. We stayed there for two days as Emma too wanted to visit the famous places of the city. It was a memorable trip. We had a lot of fun and for a brief time, I forgot about Fiona and other problems in my life until the present time.I had to tell her. Although, I hadn't seen Fiona or received any threats from the sender, I had to tell her anyways before she got to know this from a third person."May I come in, Boss?"I tore my eyes from the computer screen to my beautiful wife who had the pregnancy glow on her face. She was leaning on the door."Yes, you may, Mrs. Black." I leaned back on my chair.She walked leisurely towards me. Her red skirt and white blouse. She could kill a man by the red shade of her lipstick. I should ban her from applying it because I was having a boner just by looking at her luscious lips and cute bangs.Yes, Elle forced her for a new haircut and I must admit, it gave her a combination of innocen

    [ Emma ]"I can't believe whatever doctor said. We're having a baby." She whispered. Tears welled up in our eyes."Yes, we're having a baby, Emma. It's a shock for me as well but I'm feeling on the top of the world. I am going to be a Dad soon and you're a Mom." I kissed her forehead. In that moment, we forgot everything that had been going in our lives."Mr. Black, we'll discharge Mrs. Black by nine in the morning. She has just a cut on her forehead, nothing serious but you must consult a gynecologist for the pregnancy monitoring. Otherwise she is fit to travel."The doctor told us."Thanks, Doctor but please keep it confidential. We'd be very grateful if this news doesn't come out. Our child's life can be on stake. I hope you understand." I requested the doctor.He gave me a reassuring nod,"Don't worry, Mr. Black. We keep our patient's profile confidential. We're leaving for now. A nurse will keep a check on Mrsm Black until she's here." He said and left with the other medical staff.

    [ Brandon ]The night turned out to be the dawn of my painful memories surging back on the canvass of my present. The encounter with Fiona after a decade brought back the agony, pain and cut open the deep wounds of the past.I hadn't told Colton about the encounter with Fiona. He was having a great time with his family and it'd be selfish of me to but a brake on his happiness.She was my demon to deal with.The clock stuck nine in the night, I hadn't talked with Emma throughout the day as it was one of the busiest days. We had a brief conversation twenty-four hours ago. I couldn't gather the courage to tell her that my past was back to haunt me in the present.The loud blaring of my phone diverted my attention from my laptop to my phone screen. It was flashing Damien, my head of security and most trusted man whom I sent after Emma and Elle.I wasted no time in swiping the green button and place the phone near my ear."What's it, Damien?" I asked him before he could say a word."Boss,

    [ Emma ]"Are you serious? I mean you ripped that man off his reputation in front of everyone even his own subordinates like a total badass?" Elle exclaimed in disbelief when I narrated her everything that happened at the office.It was hell of a dramatic day. When I returned to my hotel room, I was completely exhausted."Yes, he seemed ready to eat me alive if he was given a chance. I felt bad for the others though, they acted upon his orders to save their jobs but they cheated the company. I had to remove them. If they could be bought once, they'd do it again." I sighed and rubbed my aching head."You need rest, Emma. I am observing you since yesterday. You don't look quite good. I think you should visit your doctor for a routine check-up." Elle said with concern."I am fine, Elle. It just the tension and over workload I have been taking for a long time or I say since I was promoted."I tried to assure her but deep down I knew that I wasn't fine."Emma, don't torture yourself.
