[ Evangeline ]

I yawned and stretched my hands to loose my stiff muscles. I rubbed my eyes to look around my surroundings. It wasn't my room but then realization fell upon me.

I wasn't at my home but at Dominic's.

It didn't come to my mind before that it wasn't my sweet home but this huge room almost the size of my living room didn't give me homely feeling. I yawned and looked at the digital watch on the bedside table. It showed 8:45 A.M.

"Shit! How can I sleep this late?" I quickly jumped out of the bed and scrambled to the bathroom to get ready for the office and before that, I had to wake up Chase.

The bathroom itself amazed me. It was equipped with all the modern accessories and expensive toiletries.

It didn't feel right. I used to live this life for twenty three years but last five years taught me the value of money and everything that most people don't have the luxury to enjoy.

This lavish lifestyle didn't fit me in it.

Sighing in agony, I take a quick shower and changed into a

    [ Evangeline ]"Mom, Dad!"A gasp left my mouth. I blinked my eyes a few times to believe that it's really them, my parents whom I hadn't seen in years. Their faces wore the same expression.Nobody tried to make a move as if the emotions, pain and longing of years were streaming down in the form of our tears."Julius, Rachel, don't you want to meet your daughter and you, Eve, why are you standing there?" Camilla's voice snapped me out of my frozen state and next I knew, I was hugging my parents."Evy, my Evy, is that really you?" Mom kissed all over my face which reminded me of the old times. I was no longer the little girl but a mother myself but in that moment I felt like their little princess once again."Yes..yes..it's me, your Evy." I shook my head frantically. I was crying and I was smiling."You have grown so much since I last saw you, Evy. You look more beautiful and more of the person I always wanted you to become." Dad patted my head."I am proud of you for being a fighter, a

    [ Evangeline ]"Who was that?" Dominic asked placing his hand on my shoulder making me jump in fear. I didn't realise that I was shaking like a dry leaf.I looked in Chase's direction. I couldn't talk about Colton in front of my son who adored his father."Dad, can you take Chase out for some time. Remember, you promised to play football with him." I gestured my father to take Chase out of there. Luckily, Chase was engrossed in his new videogame that he didn't notice the change in my behavior. "Chase, come on Champ, let's play some real games." Dad held his hand and took him to the garden area.It was only our mothers and us."Oh..it..it was from a hospital in Brookville." I couldn't tell him that Colton was admitted there. "A call from a distant hospital but why did they call you? Do you know somebody there?" He asked with a frown."What did you say, Brookville?" Camilla asked before I could answer Dominic's questions. The creases on her forehead told me that she knew something.

    [ Colton ]"Mama, look at the rabbit. It's eating our carrots." I yelled out for my mother to see the red eyes rabit who was busy nibbling on a carrot in the backside garden of our cabin house. My mama walked out of the house, her beautiful face wore a smile as she leaned on the door."Mama, can we take him in?" I looked at her with puppy eyes as I always wanted a pet but my father was against it. "You know your Dad, baby. He won't allow us to take him with us." My mother gave me an apologetic smile. I half heartedly looked at the bunny who was now staring at me with his shiny red eyes. "We can hide him in the basement, Mama. Yes, we can make a house for him in the basement and Dad will never find out about the bunny." I told her my innocent childish idea. She shook her head and pointed her finger behind me,"I think your bunny loves to live in the grasslands. Look, he's gone far." She said.I turned around and found the rabbit hopping away in the bushes.I sadly got up from the g

    [ Evangeline ]"Eve, please open the door."I ignored his repeated request and continued staring out of the window at the dark sky studded with billions of stars."I beg you, Evangeline. Please, for once open the door and let me see you." I heard him again in a tired voice.I sighed in dejection. Since the moment I received a call from Brandon who flew his way to Brookville, I couldn't find my heart at peace. There was a strange uneasiness continously simmering inside me."Evangeline..please." He begged."Dominic, I told you that I need some time. Please leave me alone." I said flatly. I couldn't get my mind off his earlier outburst and his intentions to control my actions.I couldn't let myself be a puppet of another man once again."I beg you for the last time, Eve. I just want to have a few words with you. I promise that I won't bother you again until you want to talk to me." I could feel desperation in his tone.He wasn't going to give up easily or soon and I didn't want the other

    [ Colton ]Three weeks passed since I met with an accident. Brandon took me back home in an air ambulance and shifted me in a private hospital so the news may remain secret. We didn't want any controversy to involve. For our partners and for the world, I was on a vacation with Evanca on a remote mountaneous country.Evanca was reluctant with the idea of not going to her office and crack more deals but no one could ever win against my father. He threatened to shut down her agency in a blink of moment.Her desperation for work and more money made me wonder that did I really fall in love with a wrong person or I never understood her."May I come in, Sir?" A soft knock on the door along with Hendrick's timid voice snapped me out of my pensive thoughts. Nowdays, I manage all my work from home."Come in." I permitted him and sat up straight on my chair."Good afternoon, Sir. How are you feeling?" He asked me politely.I scanned him from top to bottom. The load of extra work in my absence ha

    [ Colton ]"Where do you think you're going, Col?"I halted in my track and closed my eyes to restrain my anger which might unleash on the woman I love.It sounds dubious now."It's none of your business, Evanca." I said curtly and started walking out of the house."It is my business, Colton. It is my business since you practically house arrested me against my will." She marched to me with her hands on her hips and her eyes darted on me accusingly.I stared at her in disbelief. All the love, she expressed for me, gradually evaporated since I asked her to do something I wish otherwise I was too busy in loving her and never realised that she had been a person of her own will. I never stopped her from doing anything as I trusted her with all my faith and loyalty in our marriage."Evanca, I am telling you for the last time and for good." I turned to face her,"Stop meddling in my personal affairs because I can be a very bad guy if you keep pushing my buttons for no reason." I used the cold

    [ Colton ]"Another heir besides you."Her words drained the blood out of me."Watch your words woman. Do you even realize what you just said?" I yelled on her completely loosing my sanity.She flinched on my outburst."I am afraid to say it but it's true. We met five years ago at a hospital where he visited for his routine check up I guess. I was crying and begging the doctor to start the treatment when he suffered a stroke and had very less time left. He stepped in and paid the bill. I thought he was an angel but it was my biggest misunderstanding. He told me to meet him the next day and proposed a deal which I could neither reject nor accept." She cracked a sob,"He offered me to marry him and give him a son and in exchange he will pay for my brother's treatment at the best hospital of the country by the best neurosurgeons.""You accepted his offer? I am not surprised a bit. Who would say no to served money and my father has no limit of it." I chuckled sarcastically."Yes, I couldn'

    [ Evangeline ]The following week was one of the most memorable time of my life. I was reunited with my parents who spoiled Chase rotten along with Camilla. He received all the love he missed and craved. My Dad taught him how to play rugby while Mom and Camilla baked him a hundred types of cake and cookies.They brought him countless gifts, mostly video games despite of my warnings that they were spoiling him and I had to suffer the aftermath.My parents and Camilla finally decided to go back yesterday and it was the toughest task for me to handle a wailing Chase who wasn't ready to let them go.He grew attatched to them and it pained me to see him crying and yearning for them but they have a life too."How is he doing?" I asked Dominic who just came out of Chase's room."He isn't ready to listen anything unless we bring his grandparents back." He shook his head in defeat and sat next to me in the living room.Chase didn't come out of his room or listened to us since they left."What

    [ 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.
