A WEEK LATER GABRIEL POV It was cold stormy night, and it was pouring non-stop.The sky was tar black and the clouds were moving towards me.The streets were deserted, with the tar shining in the street light, as I drive down the road to my mansion. My heart suddenly start beating faster as I become weak. I don't become weak easily but.....this, this could only mean one thing, my mate wasn't far from me.Mine, the one I have been searching for, for 31years." Man, our mate is here" Lowell said through mind link, confirming my suspicion, which piqued my excitement, finally my long awaited mate was here.I immediately bring the car to a halt and question him hurrily. " Where is she? show me" I command him, he agrees before beginning the search.I don't know what I should be feeling at the moment, happiness, sadness. I have no idea. I have been waiting for her for so long.What if I don't like her, or worse she doesn't like me.It takes Lowell a while but he finds her" There, our ma
GABRIEL POV I look around and notice that the street is very much deserted, and by the sound of the rumbling sky the rain is no where near being over.I should probably leave her here, after all it's not like, she means anything to me." Stay out of trouble, ok. I have to go now" I command, before taking a look at her one last time. She doesn't say a word, instead she frowns. She seemed a little upset with me for some reason, when I get into my car as she stands in the rain, observing me quietly.I ignore every edge to call her in and drive out, telling myself she will be ok.After driving a few meters, I hear the unfamiliar voice of Koi, for the first time in forever. "Go back for her" He commands via mind link, in a deep, husky, authoritative tone that scares me." I can't" I say simply" That was an order" He says Next thing, I find myself returning to the scene for her, when I get there she is hugging her knees crying." Come with me" I order " I don't want want to, you left
RALPH POV I was sitting in my room reflecting on all my dumb life choices I have made, which has lead me to this condition, alone and mate less .If only my RIEKA was still alive, then maybe my life would have been better, I miss her so much.The door opens and mom Ulva sails in fuming mad." Good evening m...." I say before she cuts me off with a slap " Why would you reject your mate, you idiot" She yells " Come calm down, she cheated on me for christ sake " I complain " And you think I don't know that" She says, stunning me" You knew about it?" I ask disappointed " Of course I knew, I know everything" She says " Why didn't you ever tell me?" I ask angrily " And for what? so that you would divorce her? You can't divorce Lifa, Ralph" She says " I can and I will" I inform her " No you can't, do you think if you go about changing wifes like cars, you will be allowed to be Alpha?. No, you know why, because people don't trust men who can't handle their home affairs" She says "
GABRIEL POV I woke up early this morning to realize the stupid mistake I committed last night, how could I let my own vampire control me like that. How dare he command me. I own this body , compared to me he is a free loner.Anyway I could still savage the situation, there's no way I will be caught dead with a mad woman. ' Maybe I should abandon her at a mental hospital' - I think ' No that won't work, what if she runs away. You might need be able to break the bond'-I subconscious warns' What if I took her to mom's place, she can always use her as a test subject, plus mom will treat her faster, after all she's the best psychologist/psychiatrist I know'- I think ' yes, plus she's always complaining about being lonely, Sia would be great company'- My subconscious agrees " Gabriel, Gabriel your coffee is growing cold" Teresa's voice knocks me out of my thoughts " Oh ,thank you" I say, when I come back to my senses. She then smiles before heading back to the kitchen. I look to my

I ask, and she nods before we walk out. We drive some few minutes before getting stuck in traffic, which reminds me today happens to be the Saturday fun carnival.How stupid was I to forget, that's why I prefer to remain in doors on Saturdays." Excuse me Mr" I say to the first man who passes very close to my car wearing a skirt and a cap synthetic bird feathers." Good day sir" He greets " Good day, how long is this parade expected to last?" I ask curious " About an hour sir" He responds simply." Ok thanks" I say before he walks out An hour, I can't wait that long here, and there is no other route. Plus I don't want to
GABRIEL POV After a few hours Ralph and I decide to retire, so I take a drive down to mom's place, since that is where Sia is supposed to be. Earlier today I had ordered our stuff be transferred over, but now that I think of it, it was a dumb idea.Brother was right, I can't keep my life on hold for someone like Sia, who is worth nothing. I walk into the living room to see her and mom having a chat. When she sees me a broad smile appeared on her face as she runs towards me " Gabriel, welcome" She says as she tries to hug me but I pull back " Don't you dare touch me" I yell angrily and he smile dies down immediately " Did I do something wrong?" she ask confuse " Yes, you did everything wrong, curse" I insult and she burst into tears " Gabriel watch your tone" Mom intervenes " I will not, I don't want this thing around, anymore and I suggest you throw her out" I advise before walking out " Gabriel, Gabriel, come back here" I hear mom calling, but didn't turn back." What are y
SIA POV Gabriel has been gone for hours, and I am starting to feel bored. Mom keeps forcing me to undergo something called Therapy. I don't even like it plus it gives me nightmares." Mother, I don't want to continue. Can I go play?" I ask " Sia, we will soon be done ok, just a wait a little" She says " But I am tired" I cry " Fine, you can go" She gives in" Thank you mom" I gratify before hurrily run out. I get out of the gate and run to a nearby park, where I notice some kids playing with sand and I hurrily join them, after playing for some time the kids start crying and I try to pacify them, but their angry mothers rush in." What are you doing to our kids?" they ask angrily as they pull them out of my grip. " Nothing aunty, they just started crying" I confess" Look at this old mad woman calling me aunty. Do I look like your aunt" One of them yell" Did I do something wrong aunt" I question " Yes, you did everything wrong with you ugly face" She insults " Listen Fat ugly
GABRIEL POV " Don't you dare change the subject Gabriel" She commands " So the reason why you have been avoiding my calls is because you have been having the time of your life with this cheap sex toy of yours" She yells, pointing at Sia, who was still sitting in bed confuse.' How dare she say such ill things about a woman she does know, how ruth of her'" Don't you dare call her that" I warn " You are even defending your other woman infront of me, unbelievable" She says " She's not my other woman" I correct " That is right, because she is just some sex toy, that you play around with" Ivy yells " Gabriel, what's a sex toy?" Sia questions confused.This is exactly what I didn't want. Sia getting the wrong idea about things. " Stop playing dumb, witch" Ivy insults as she tries to hit her but I restrain her. " Sia excuse us" I order" But......" She tries to argue, but I cut her off " Leave Sia" I command and she obliges " let go of me" Ivy commands and I release her " Can you e
RIEKA POV THE NEXT MORNING " Baby stop crying" Gabriel beseeches a crying baby hope as he rocks her back and forth, but she doesn't stop instead she increases her crying " What is wrong with her?. Why can't she stop crying?" He ask in frustration. " Maybe you are holding her wrong" I inform as I raise from the seat where I breast fed Miracle and walk towards him." I seriously doubt. I think she might just be hungry" He suggests " She just ate. You know what?. Let's switch. Carry Miracle and I would do same for Hope" I suggest " That could work" He says as he hands her over and I give him Miracle " Don't cry baby" I say gently rocking her" I am telling you babe. Hope is a lot of work, why can't she be like cute little Miracle over here " He says shamelessly" I thought Hope was your favorite" I ask with an unimpressed frown. " Apparently I was wrong. She cries too much" He says shamelessly, and I burst into laughter. " I hope you wouldn't say same about Miracle, when he beg
GABRIEL POV Ralph is dead, without telling me where my wife and children are.' Where are my children, and my wife'- I think reverting back into my human form ' I will look for her'- I here Lowell say weakened via mind link ' Please hurry'- I beseech him,before he begins the search ' I found her' He says ' She's that building' Joy overwhelms me and I immediately run into the building.The door wasn't locked so getting in was pretty easy.' In there'- He says directing me to a room door. I open it and there she is lieing in bed with two beautiful babies lieing next to her and and old woman sitting there." Gabriel" She calls out as she tries to sit upright " Who is he?" The old woman ask" My husband" She says simply " Why are you naked?" She ask confused and the only thing I can think of is to go on my knees and hug her, in relief. " Thank goodness you are safe" I whisper in her ear" I am happy you are fine too" She says with a smile as she pulls away. " Are these mine?" I
RIEKA POV 30 minutes of pushing and all for what?. For nothing. The babies heads aren't even showing. It must be due to the fact that the pregnancy hasn't reached full term." Push one more time" She beseeches me. " I am tired" I tell her in tears as sweat drips down my skin profusely. I am exhausted and seriously don't think I can push anymore." Just try sweetheart. You can do it" She encourages, and I summon courage for one more push." I see the baby's head. Keep pushing"She says with a reassuring smile " I can't anymore. I give up" I confess as I feel all my strength fleeing me" Just try" She says" I can't" I cry shaking my head from side to side " Miss what's your name?" She ask " Rieka ma'am" I say in between pants " Do you love your kids?" She ask " Of course" I mutter with a confused frown, as I find myself unable to speak " Then stop wining like a baby, and push these babies out, or do you want to be known as the one responsible for your children dead" She says i
RIEKA POV Two hour of agonizing torture, those are the only words I can use to describe this experience. This pain can be felt as strong cramping in my abdomen, groin, and back, as well as there is an achy feeling in my stomach. I experience pains in my sides and thighs as well. The contractions tend to become longer, stronger and more frequent as the labour progresses. I experience pressure in my lower back and rectum, and I feel an urge to push." Ralph, take me to the hospital now" I command in tears as I pace back and forth in an effort to release some of the pain " I told you, I already ordered Sam to get you a midwife. I don't know why he is taking forever to get here" He yells in frustration " Don't you dare yell at me. This is all your fault moroon" I yell equally angry as I feel like my waist is about to split into halves." What did I do now?" He ask confused " Shut up. Your voice is annoying me" I yell " God, what did I get myself into?. What type of trouble is thi
GABRIEL POV I drive to the estate gates and see an unexpected face, Kelvin standing there having an acrimonious dispute with the estate security. " Kelvin" I call out as I bring the car to a halt and jump out." Bo....Boss....." He responds with a shaky voice " Why are you here?. Shouldn't you be at the hospital with Rieka?" I ask confused " I......You see......The thing is......" He babbles " Where is Rieka anyway?" I ask looking around ,but yet no sign of her " Boss, Mrs Rieka got kidnapped" He says with much difficulty " What do you mean by she got kidnapped?" I ask unimpressed. ' What he says doesn't make any sense'" The thing is after we left home. I drove to the estate gate, and realized that the gates were locked, so I decided to head to the gate man's post to check what the problem was, but unfortunately when I got there, I was attacked with a stick to the head, and I lost consciousness. When I woke, she was gone, and so was the car" He says, and I immediately burst i
GABRIEL POV Another day, another nag. Rieka is frustrating the life out of me and I can't do anything about it, because it's not her fault. it's this stupid hormonal changes that are changing my sweet little wife into some kind of an annoying nag." Gabriel are you even listening to me?. I said I wouldn't ride in that smelly car of your to go see the doctor" She yells, pulling me out of my thoughts " I got you babe. I will drive you in your car then. Just give me a moment to get dressed" I inform " Wait. Don't you have work?" She inquires calmly in a concerned manner.Again with the mood swings. I wonder what is going on in her mind now. " Yes I do but this is way more important" I inform her knowing fully well that she was just to trap me." Nonsense. I say you go to work. Besides you would have to take a 2 months leave when I give birth next week, so that you can take care of me and our babies. Let Kelvin take me." She says in a convincing manner, confusing me the more. I mean
TWO WEEKS LATER GABRIEL POV " Wake up baby" I whisper into her ear as I plant soft kisses on her face haphazardly. " Sugar...... Leave me" She grumbles as she buries her head underneath the pillow." Wake up babe. Your pancakes are getting cold" I inform, and she hurrily takes of the pillow.I knew she would behave like this, after all she almost didn't sleep last night because she was craving for them. " Why didn't you say so sooner. Give me" She says excited, and I hand her the tray of pancakes and syrup." They smell so good. Thanks sugar" She says, before leaning into a soft kiss " Anything for you" I inform as I take a sit next to her on the bed.She excitedly takes a bite from the pancake, before her facial expression changes from excitement to disappointment. " Gabriel, I don't want pancakes anymore" She says " Why?. Is it not good?" I inquire confused. Nanny Teresa herself had tasted the pancakes and she said they were lovely." No, I want something else" She says in a
GABRIEL POV " Mr Laurenzo, you are free to go" This are the best words I have heard in months. Today is the 3rd happiest day in my life, after the day I got married to Rieka and the day I found out she was pregnant, and I was going to be a father. A certain wave of excitement watched over me as I patiently waited for the gates to open, and there's the one person I wanted to see, Rieka and I can't help but stretch my lips into a broad smile.She was wearing a short, long sleeve, loosely fitted pink dress and matching low sleppass, She had fairly light makeup on and her hair was cut to shoulder length which suited her perfectly. " Welcome home my love" She says with beautiful smile as she runs into my arms with a warm hug out of excitement. " You are finally mine, once more" she adds, in a teary voice " I way always your, in mind and spirit" I assure her as she pulls away from the hug and I wipe her tears off. " Let's go home" I inform and she nods in approval " Thanks police offi
RALPH POV This can't be happening to me, I can't be sentenced I did nothing wrong. That bastard was a nemesis to society. I did this world and his brother a favor, by eliminating him.I think, they have bribed this stupid judge to give me such a harsh punishment, and what does Gabriel get? a few months, propostros." Court close" The announcer says and the police officers, who brought me earlier come to lead me out.Normally, I would create resistance, but I don't want to make the situation worse. I walk towards Rieka, and she is all smiles, as if thought to infuriate me. It's hurts but I won't let her know she's getting to me " Enjoy while you can, because I am coming for you" I whispered in a slightly audible tone, making sure only her could healr." Good to hell" she says " I will take you with me, princess" I say with a smirk. " Get him out of my sight" She orders the police officers and they wheel me out.~~~~~~~~Night one in this penitentiary feels like hell. the food is c
