After Katherine told Aiden about the unusual anonymous calls, it weighed heavily on his mind for weeks. He wondered if Violet was back and was trying to stir up trouble again. The calls became more frequent as it drew nearer and nearer to the wedding, until one day they stopped out of the blue. This made Aiden even more suspicious and worried. With the wedding only a few days away, the happy couple tried to remain as calm as they could be, and focused on their big day. Dustin made it his duty to plan a bachelor party for his best friend, who said he wasn't interested in having one, but with a little convincing, Aiden finally agreed to a small get-together with a few of his friends.

He yearned for her, but he tried his best not to break his promise.They spoke over the phone after the bachelorette party and even fell asleep while still on the phone with each other. The next morning, the sound of bells and whistles woke Katherine up. Her mom, Nola and Taryn, were all jumping in excitement and joy."Get up, sleepy head," Nola said before kissing her mom on the cheek. "Yeah, get up sleepy head, it's your wedding day," Mrs. Riley cheered as she rang the two small wedding bells she was carrying. Taryn then joined in with the sliding whistle. "Katherine, what's happening?" She heard over the phone. It was then she realized that Aiden was still on the phone. "Aiden my love, it's getting crazy over here," she laughed. "I can only ima

The ride over to the reception venue was about fifteen minutes. When Katherine and Aiden got there, the guests were already there. The flower girl and ring bearer entered first, and then the bridal party. "Ladies and gentlemen, please stand and make welcome the beautiful newly-weds, Mr. and Mrs. Windsor," the MC announced, and the audience erupted in cheers and applauses as Aiden and Katherine entered the beautifully decorated room. "Now, the newly-weds will do their first dance as a married couple," The MC spoke, and the audience sat back down. All eyes were set on Aiden and Katherine as they slowly walked to the centre of the ballroom. The soothing sounds of Paramore's Only Exception began to play over the speaker. Aiden smiled and pulled Katherine closer to him. The crowd looked on as they began to move to the melody of the song.The quiet whispers drowned out, and soon, Katherine felt like she and Aiden were the only ones in the room.She looked at him and smile.

The newly-weds were over the moon about their honeymoon, even though they had been flying for quite some time on Aiden's private jet. Katherine, however, did not know where they were going, so she was in shock when the pilot, Frank, announced that they were at their destination, which was Bora Bora. She always dreamed about going there to experience the beautiful beaches and peaceful ambiance. She mentioned it once to Aiden when they had just met, and he was definitely taking notes because this was a dream come true for her. "Welcome to one of the most surreal places on earth, Bora Bora," Frank announced over the intercom. "Thank you, Frank. And spectacular flying," Aiden commended. "Thank you, Frank," Kat also said. "I hope you two have the most wonderful and memorable honeymoon," Frank continued over the pager. "Thank you," the newly-weds replied in unison.When the jet landed, two men and a lady came to greet th

For the next four days, Katherine and Aiden were in honeymoon bliss. They went on scenic hikes, snorkeling, shopping in the town for souvenirs for themselves and their loved one. They would check in with their families two times for the day, and every phone call was an enjoyable one. The twins would make it clear what they wanted from the trip. And each time, it was something different. Aiden tried his best to meet all their demands, while Katherine adored how he and the kids had a wonderful relationship. "Why are you laughing at me?" Aiden asked his wife as he rummaged through some items that he had already gotten. "I just think it's cute how the kids have you all riled up," she smiled as she kissed his cheek. "Laugh now, but I know the kids will love all of these," he stated. "I'm making sure I have everything. I can't seem to find the bag of sweet and spicy Taki pretzels for Nate.""Taki pretzels?" Katherine questioned. "I didn't even know they made those.""They do, and Nate

After Aiden phoned Matteo, he didn't get the satisfaction he needed because Matteo wasn't aware of anyone being in the vicinity of the villas during that time of the evening. Matteo however promised that there will be security officers posted in that area, and they wouldn't be bothered like that again. That wasn't enough for Aiden because for the next couple of days he had an uneasy feeling in the pit of his stomach, like whoever came by their villa was there to watch or harm them. He tried his best to brush the feeling aside and not make Katherine worry, but it was in vain. His mind even began stressing about work and the direction his company was heading. He wanted to take his mind off all of that, so they were going on their final excursion in the town. Kai came to pick them up around 11 am, with Matteo in tow. "What's bothering you?" Katherine asked him as he looked out the window of the car. "Oh, nothing really," he smiled at her. "I'm just thinking about work.""Really, Ai

The honeymoon was now over and Katherine and Aiden were at the airfield, waiting on Aiden's private jet. Matteo and Kai were also there to assist with the luggage. Ten minutes later and both men were loading the luggages on to the aircraft while Aiden helped Katherine with her hand luggage. "Thank you so much, Matteo, for your hospitality," Katherine thanked him as he placed the last of the suitcases in its position. "You are most welcome, Mrs. Windsor," he smiled and did a little bow. "And Mr. Windsor, I do apologize again for that minor mishap at the store and also for the invasion of your privacy at your villa." He finished. "That's alright Matteo, our trip was still a memorable one," Aiden made clear. "Yes, it was amazing," Kat added. "Oh," Matteo began. "Before I forget, I just want to say congratulations in advance," he finished and Katherine and Aiden looked at him confused. "Congratulations? How many times are you gonna say that?” Aiden grinned and patted the middle-age

"We're home," Katherine announced as she entered the living room of her house. "Mom," the twins yelled in excitement. They both ran and gave their mother a big bear hug. Her parents and Taryn came behind the twins with large smiles on their faces. "Oh, I've missed you two," Katherine breathed as she inhaled the scent of her children. "We missed you too," Nola said. "Yeah, we're glad you're back, mom," Nate added. "Wait a minute, don't I get any hug?" Aiden asked as he entered, dragging two suitcases and a bag behind him. "Uncle Aiden," the twins exclaimed. They then gave him a hug as he kissed Nola's head and ruffled Nate's hair. They all hugged and exchanged pleasantries. "I can't wait to see what you have for us," Nate said while rubbing his hands together."Yay, presents, presents," Nola cheered. "And I can't wait to see the pictures you guys took," Mrs. Riley added. "And I can't wait to hear the stories." Taryn said as she raised her eyebrows cheekily. "And boy, do I ha

"Nathan, could you please pass me the peas?" Katherine asked as she laughed at something Nola said. "Here you go, mom," Nate said as he handed her the bowl with the peas. "So Nate, are you excited to start playing for one of the best college baseball teams in the entire US?" Dustin asked. "You know it, Uncle Dusty," Nate grinned as he chewed on his food. "We are so proud of you," Mrs. Riley announced as she cut into her baked chicken. "Thanks grandma," Nate nodded. "And your grandpa is proud of you too," Mr. Riley chimed in. "And don't forget grandma Debs, she's proud of you too.""Yes I am," Deborah answered as she wiped Kaden's cheeks with the napkin. Adeline laughed because she knew her brother didn't like being smothered. Deborah had been spending lots of time in the Windsor mansion ever since Violet took her life five years ago. When she realized Aiden was never coming back for her, something in her snapped and she just couldn't take it anymore.It was a sad time for Mrs. O
THE HUSBAND TRAP 95: Ten Years Later
TEN YEARS LATER Chaos was brewing in the Windsor mansion as an eighteen-year-old Nola struggled to style her hair. She tried tirelessly to get the curls just right, but her hair wasn't having it today. "Dammit!" she snapped, throwing the curling iron down on the floor. "I'm gonna tell mom and dad that you said a bad word." Nola turned on her chair and saw her little sister, Adeline, trying on one of her bras. "Addy, how many times have I asked you to stay outta my stuff?" Nola rolled her eyes. "Please put it down." Addy pouted and placed the bra back on the bed. "Nola, do you have to go away to college?" Nola's heart melted. "Hey, come here," she stretched her hands out for her little sister to come to her. The shiny, dark-haired little girl ran into the strawberry blonde-haired young woman's arms. "Come on, climb on my lap," Nola giggled as she helped her sister onto her lap. "I don't want you to be sad. I promise I will be back for summers, Christmases, and family holid
THE HUSBAND TRAP 94: Nile’s Grave
The drive to the cemetery where Nile was buried was about an hour and a half from Aiden's and Katherine's home. Katherine thought it was a better idea if her mom and Mrs. Lewis came with them so that they could watch the babies while they visited Nile's graveside. Mrs. Riley and Mrs. Lewis hung back while Katherine, Aiden, Nola and Nathan made their way to the graveside. Even though it was many years ago, Katherine still remembered where Nile was laid to rest. His black and white headstone stood out from the rest, since it was made to look like a praying angel with a golden halo on top of its head. She remembered that there was also a small oak tree close to the grave, which was now a towering beauty. "There it is," Katherine motioned, directing Nola and Nathan who were walking closely beside them. Nathan had his backpack with him and Nola had her little trinkets, while Katherine carried a small purse that held hers. "It's so beautiful," Nola remarked as they got closer to the gra
THE HUSBAND TRAP 93: The Letter
Aiden adjusted his position on the bed, took in a deep breath as he prepared to tell Kat everything. His heart thumped at an increased rate due to the fact that his nerves were getting the better of him. He was both anxious and nervous not knowing how Katherine would take the information he was about to lie on her. "Remember I told you about the accident I was in years ago?" He began. "Yes, I do, the one that gave you the scar." "It gave me more than just a scar," he began. "That accident changed my life in so many ways. It made me realized that life is short and that in the blink of an eye things can change for the worst.""Everything happens for a reason, my love." "I believe so too. Fate has a way of proving that," he stated as he took her hands into his."I believe so too." "My donor left me a letter than I've kept for so many years without opening, and when I finally did, fate intervened.""Yeah?” Katherine began, already knowing where this was headed. "Who would've thought
THE HUSBAND TRAP 92: You’re Pregnant?
A week had passed since Katherine and her babies were released from the hospital. She felt overwhelmed on most days, but she was grateful for having her husband, her parents, and Mrs. Lewis by her side. Miss Polly had moved back home to Scotland to be with her sick mother, but she sent her best wishes. Taryn and Dustin were still on their honeymoon, but they couldn't wait to come home and meet the babies. They wanted to cut their trip short, but Katherine insisted that they stayed and enjoyed their getaway. Mr. and Mrs. Riley were at the Café overseeing things. Mrs. Lewis was upstairs checking on the babies, while Aiden and Katherine enjoyed a nice quiet lunch in the dining room. "They are fast asleep, and they are the cutest little beings I've ever seen. I realize that Kaden is trying to take the mittens off his hands," Mrs. Lewis stated as she entered the dining room."He wants to suck on his fingers like I used to do when I was small," Aiden explained. "And Adeline sleeps with

"I can't believe I fainted after seeing my child being born," Aiden expressed as he cradled his children in both of his hands. Six hours had passed since Katherine gave birth, and she and both babies were doing well. She was now laying in bed resting, while Aiden sat in a chair holding the sleeping babies. "I can't believe it either," Katherine remarked. "Taryn and Dustin will find this amusing when I tell them." "Dustin isn't gonna let me live it down," Aiden shook his head and smiled. A knock sounded on the door. "You have visitors," Dr. Murray announced as she entered the room. Mr and Mrs. Riley were walking behind her with huge smiles plastered on their faces. "Oh, my sweet pea," Mrs. Riley gushed as she walked over to her daughter. She rubbed her head and then caressed her face. She then turned her attention to Aiden and the babies. "They are beautiful," she cooed. "Shhh, you don't wanna wake them," Aiden whispered. "They are so adorable. I could just eat them up," Mrs. R
THE HUSBAND TRAP 90: The Delivery
The drive over to the hospital was agonizing for both Katherine and Aiden. It felt like they had been driving for hours, even though it was approximately a fifteen minute drive. When they got to the facility, they were taken to a private room that was reserved for Katherine. Doctor Murray was already there and waiting since Aiden had called her earlier. Once they had gotten their room, Dr. Murray made sure Kat was comfortable with what was to come next, even though this was her second time experiencing labour. "Now that you're all set up, we have to check how dilated you are," Dr. Murray said to Katherine, who was wincing in pain. "The contractions are a bit far apart, but they still hurt like hell," Katherine stated as she adjusted herself on the bed. Aiden was right by her side, holding her hand every step of the way. He watched as the doctor began to probe Katherine. They both noticed how Dr. Murray's eyebrows were raised in curiosity and Aiden got a bit worried. "Is everyth
THE HUSBAND TRAP 89: I Think It’s Time
Katherine stood beside her best friend, admiring her in the mirror. She could tell that she was nervous, but she looked absolutely beautiful in her wedding dress. "Just breathe, Tar," Kat encouraged her. "I am breathing, but I think this dress is too tight. It's cutting off my circulation," Taryn fussed."Are you sure?" Katherine asked as she began to gently tug on the back of the dress. "Maybe I should've chosen a different dress." "Nonsense, this dress was made for you, literally." Taryn's dress was a silk satin fit and flare that hugged her body from her chest to her hips, then flared from her mid-thigh, creating a sexy yet sophisticated look. "I think I'm gonna be sick," she gave out as she scrambled towards the bathroom. Katherine followed behind her and found her knelt over the toilet. "Listen, I'm way too big to be walking this fast," Katherine breathed as she caught her breath. "Sorry," Taryn managed to say before hurling again. "Let it out, sweetie, let it all out,"
THE HUSBAND TRAP 88: Great News
Dustin had been waiting for a big break in his career. For the past couple of months, he had been investigating a case that meant a lot to him. A long while back, he got information about a suspected pedophile and since then he had been obsessed with solving the case. The man's name was Donny Perez, but the evidence wasn't much, so he needed something to stick the nail in Donny's coffin. "Everyone, please stay in position," Dustin ordered over the police radios.He was parked in a neighborhood across the street from a lemonade stand. The chief got his nineteen-year-old niece Sarah to work undercover. She was posing as a vendor selling lemonade to help out an animal shelter. Even though Sarah was nineteen, she was really little because she has a trait of dwarfism. She was well-equipped to do the task, and they had police posted all over the neighborhood. Dustin and his partner watched as a few persons came up and purchased their refreshing cups of lemonade. He checked his watch, and
