"Klaus called" Wendy announces as as she walks into my bedroom. She has advised me time and again to go and look after my son but I've paid no attention to her. Right now we're not in good terms. We are no longer the best friends we used to be. She's so mad at me and to tell you what?, I miss her very much and I just wish we could be close again.
"Did he?" I ask not paying attention to her.
"Yeah and I guess he was here to beg you again right?"
"You guessed right"
"You obviously turned him down, didn't you?"
"You know the answer to that"
"Of course I do" she walks to my mirror stand and sits on the chair beside it. "I broke up with Blake today"
She announces and I'm shocked!. Wendy loves Blake very much and I didn't see this coming. I've never liked Blake for her and I've always wished for to them break up because I know Blake doesn't love her as much as she loves him. He does nothing but cheat on and hurt her and I've always waited fo
I'm surprised to see security guards around the premises, Klaus has never been the kind to keep security guards."Why all these guards?""Klaus made these developments the moment Kyle was brought home""But why ?" I ask confused"He's a billionaire honey, and their children, especially their sons are always targets. The heir is always the biggest threat to the enemy""Wait!, Is my son's life in danger?""I did not say that Hazel, I was only trying to explain why Klaus' yard is packed with security guards""Oh..." Is all I can say. As we drive in further were stopped by a security guard but the moment he sees Wendy, he lets us through. She parks in the driveway and turns off the car engine."You take it from here""Huh?""You go in there and make things right with Klaus and also apologize to Kyle for not seeing him until now""Why aren't you coming in?""Why on Earth should I do that?, I don't want to get caught
Few weeks laterWendy and I are meeting today. I want us to do something that has been on my mind ever since she told me about her break up with Blake. The blind date I set between her and Craig was more successful than I had imagined. Their chemistry is intriguing even though Wendy suggested they took things slow and Craig isn't rushing as well. The most important thing is that she's happy and that's all I ever want.I drive into the yard and honk three times and in no time, she steps out if the apartment which was formerly ours but I moved in with Klaus so she lives alone now. She gets into the car with a confused look plastered on her face."What's with the hurry?"
Hazel's POVNot all of us had a happy childhood life and a lot things could have caused that. It could've been financial issues, health issues or the situation at our homes. Some people had a horrible childhood because they had nothing, not even the most basic needs, others had everything but couldn't enjoy these things because of sicknesses, some were bullied by their mates time and again and others had broken families.My childhood was not good at all and do you know why?...well I'll tell you why. My father is the reason why I had a horrible childhood. He was a horrible, mean jerk. A wealthy and no nonsense business man. Growing up I watched my father beat up my mother almost all the time and even now that I'm nineteen, I still get to witness that. The funniest thing is that my mother still loves my father despite everything. I wonder how that's possible because for me I hate my father.YesI ha
It's Klaus Arthur, my new boss.But wait... how did he get my number and why on Earth is he calling me at this hour?. I hope all is well."Excuse me?" I ask annoyed at the fact that he's trying to make it sound like I'm supposed to answer his calls anytime he calls."Why haven't you been answering your phone?" The nerve of this guy."I happened to be far from it""In case you're wondering, it's Mr Arthur""I noticed""Good" I hear him exhale heavily over the phone. "Hazel" he calls and I find it odd because he's always all formal with Miss Kenish. "I know this is unexpected but please I need your help""My help?" I asked confused."Yeah, I've got a lot of work before me and I don't even know where to begin, I've got a deadline to meet tomorrow morning and even if I work all night by myself I won't make it . I need you to come over to my place so we could do it together. Please Hazel, it's urgent"This is so
He says sternly and I bow down my head in embarrassment."That's not your decision to make Klaus" Craig opposes."Yes it is, she's my employee" Klaus insists in a bossy tone."Dude, you're not her dad. Besides you should go and get all protective over Daisy and leave Emerald alone""The name is Hazel!" Klaus corrects in angry tone. Honestly, Craig is a pain in the ass."Oh please just drop it" he says rolling his eyes. He's obviously the younger and lousy brother."Hazel this is Craig Arthur, my younger brother, he's the Director of Heritage Affairs" He introduces and I'm totally wowed. So he's the CEO and his brother is the Director, their mother must be very proud of them. "Nice one there" is all I can say."We're going out so you take the rest of the day off"I yelp internally in joy. CSI Cyber, here I come!"Thank you sir." I say trying very hard to hide my excitement. I just can't wait to go home already."Emerald" The stubborn brothe
Klaus' POVBy ten am, Craig and I are at our mum's place eating breakfast."So how are things at the Enterprise?""Good, real good mum. Your first son is just as fruitful as his father"Craig compliments and I smile. He's always praising my works. Our sibling bond is unbreakable. I love him to bits and I'll never stop defending him. I'm twenty- eight and he's twenty-five. We attended the same school from kindergarden to college though I was always ahead of him in class. He was always getting into trouble and I always got back home with a broken nose as a result of defending him, but I never got tired and till now I'll stop at nothing to defend him. That's how much I love my little brother."I'm very proud of you son, both of you" Mum says as she smiles at us. I love my mother very much most especially because she raised my brother and I the right way. As little boys she never spared us. She would whoop our asse
When we get to his car, he opens the passenger seat door for me and I get in. He walks over to the driver's seat and once he's seated shot gone, he ignites the car engine and drives out of the parking lot. We drive to the office in an uncomfortable silence.If he tries talking to me I'll just jump out through the window.Once at the office building, he parks in the driveway and I immediately step out of the car and walk into the building. I take the elevator to the nineteenth floor where our offices are located and when I get into my office, I meet Craig comfortably seated on my chair.That nerves me a great deal."Hello Emerald" he greets with a cheerful smile.That nerves me even more. Right now everything about these two brothers nerves me."The name is Hazel" I correct in a cold tone."You were fine with me calling you Emerald the other day"
It's my very hot ex- boss Klaus. He's dressed in a pair of signature black jeans and white T-shirt with a black leather jacket over it. He has on a pair of black Snickers too. His black hair is perfectly combed and almost covers his left eye, damn he's hot and delicious!. I feel like kissing him this instant but hey.... that's not where we are right now."Hello, come in please" I usher him into the living room."Nice flat you've got here" he compliments and I begin to wonder why he would find this place cool. It's nothing compared to his fabulous condo."Thank you. Why are you here?" I ask not caring if I'm being rude or not."To know why you didn't show up at work" he says giving me a serious look.If he thinks I didn't mean what I said about quitting at his office then he's got it all wrong."Klaus I thought I gave you a resignation letter yesterday"

Hazel's POVThe Doctor told me my baby was a boy, just as Klaus and I had speculated and that he was very handsome. I wanted to see him, I wanted to hold him in my arms and kiss him. That's what every mother wants to do with her newborn baby but I couldn't do that because I didn't want to change my mind about giving the child to Klaus. I didn't want to have any connection with him. Klaus and his entire family have been at my place to beg me but I sent them away. I want nothing to do with them and since Klaus has need hyping about the baby I just decided to let him have our son, besides he'll raise him better I will. Klaus loves his son to bits and I trust that he'll give him nothing but the best life. In my present state I don't think I can handle the responsibility of raising a child. I'm still very bitter about my past and I don't think having a baby around me is a very good idea. I just want to be alone
"You did what?"Hazel scolds furiously. I just told her about my visit to her father and she's really loosing her sanity . I wonder why she's so worked up."Hazel calm down""Don't tell me to calm down okay, I'm so mad right now. Why on earth did you have to go meet that man?""That man is your father Hazel!""No he's not, he's not okay, I no longer consider him as my father and it was very wrong of you to go see him without my approval. Just what are you trying to prove?""I'm not trying to prove anything, I just wanted to talk to to him""About what exactly?....oh, you went to introduce yourself to him right?, you went to tell him we're getting married and of course expectant. That's it right?" She retorts bitterly."No Hazel, well....yes I did tell him you're pregnant but I didn't tell him we are getting married. I would never do that"
"If you insist" he says with a defeated voice."I insist ""Come on then" He carries me bridal style and walks out of the room.Klaus is too good to be true. I just can't believe that all of this will last, that's why I'm trying all I can to not get used to it. How can Klaus still love and care for me despite all the mean things I've said and done to him?. He's just too good for me and I very well know that I do not deserve me. He deserves better that a whoric girl like me.I'm definitely not his type.SIX MONTHS LATER KLAUS' POVSix months have not been enough for me to tame Hazel and make her mine. All attempts to ma
"Hazel meet my mum, mum meet Hazel" I introduce"We didn't have to meet like this my dear""It doesn't matter Mrs Arthur, nice to meet you""The pleasure is mine, how are you feeling now?""Very weak but I'm glad the baby is safe""We all are sweetheart"."Hazel!" Someone calls from the door and when we turn to look, it's Wendy.Oh, yeah I called her a while ago to tell her what happened and I do not need to tell that she freaked out a great deal. She almost damaged my eardrums with screams"Wendy""Oh my Gosh sis, I'm so sorry about what happened and that crazy bitch, I hope she's not going to get away with this""That has been taken care of""That's better. What about the baby""The baby is safe""Oh, thank God".************************************
"I'm hyperventilating right now, I feel, I feel so light , I think I'm going to pass out" She says almost out of breath."Hazel please stay with me" I put my hand on hers and she grips it as she cries harder." I'm so sorry Klaus, I know you were so excited about having a baby, I'm sorry I lost it"What the hell is she talking about?Once I drive into the hospital premises, I get out of my car and carry Hazel bridal style into the hospital and immediately a stretcher is brought and I put her on it."Klaus pleas don't leave me""I'm right here baby, just be strong okay. You need fight for you and our baby. Don't give up""Sir you need to wait out here"Hazel is taken into the emergency room and Doctor Patrick follows. I sit by the door on the floor with blood stains all over my hands and t-shirt."God please don't let this happen to me, save them both" I lament in tears. Suddenly a wonderful idea crosses my mind, I need to
"You're crazy""Crazy for you baby" He says and kisses my forehead and I feel sparks all over my body. I feel these sparks whenever he kisses me and there's this strong connection between us that I just can't understand.I can't wait to have this baby and end all this. It's driving me nuts."There's something you need to know""What's that?" I ask as I put a spoonful of peanut butter in my mouth. "Hmmm, are you sure you don't want to have some?""I'm fine Hazel, it's way past my eating time""Oh...ok Mr. dietician, enjoy watching me enjoy my peanut butter" I put more in my mouth and then I remember that he was saying something. "Oh...you said there's something I have to know""Yeah, I told my mum about the baby" he announces and I pause in horror. I feel itches all over my body and I make a mental wish for this to be dream.His mum!
