Anya stood in front of her window, angry years streaming down her eyes. She was touching her flat stomach. She still couldn't believe her precious baby was gone."Sharon. Enjoy it while it last. I will make sure you pay for what you've done to me. For killing my baby." Anya with so much anger in her voice. Her hands were tightened into a fist. She wanted to kill, strangle and destroy the lady that killed her innocent baby. She was searching for a way to do that and sooner or later, she will find one.,Jaden stood with her arms crossed in front of her as she watched her friend, getting ready for the horse riding. She couldn't possibly come up with any idea on how to stop her from going out for the trip. "Hey! Stop glaring at me like that and get ready. Akim will soon be ready to pick us up. Aren't you going?" Kaylan asked over her shoulder as she continued ransacking through her closet.Jaden rolled her eyes. "Okay. Okay.....fine. I will go get ready."**Akim came out of his room o
"You were gonna leave without telling me." Xander asked again. Kaylan stared at the floor and shook her head. "I didn't know you would wanna know.""Look at me." Xander ordered, staring intently at her.Kaylan slowly lifted her eyes and stared at him with all the courage she could muster."Look straight at me when I'm talking to you. Others can practice that but not you."Kaylan nodded and stared down."You are going on horse riding with Akim... without telling me.""It has really been boring and he just wanted to take us out, to help us." Kaylan replied. "I didn't know you would wanna know.""Everything you said last night is what I'm trying to consider." Xander replied, his eyes scanning her face. As always,he was finding it hard to look away. She was extremely beautiful and very pretty. "I said things I shouldn't have said. I'm sorry." Kaylan mumbled.Xander looked away and turned slightly. "Axel.", He called.Axel showed up immediately. "Yes my Lord?""Get Akim up here." Axel
Kaylan stared at Lord Xander, dumbfounded. She couldn't believe it. She thought her ears were deceiving her but obviously, they were not.Xander stretched his hand, staring at her. "Take my hand, will you?"Kaylan gasped softly as her gaze dropped down to his outstretched hand. Slowly, she reached out and too his hand.Still staring down at the joined hands, she couldn't believe how perfectly they match. It was so perfect it brought tears to her eyes.When she stared up back at his face, she saw the look in his eyes. It was something she'd never seen. Something special. Something unique.Lord Xander was confused. It was as though, having kaylan's palm in his opened his eyes, his soul, his innermost desires.They stared at each other for so long. It was something strange and yet, marvelous."Let's go. You will make the choice of horse." Lord Xander said and a small smile touched the corner of his lips.Kaylan smiled as they started walking away. "I already have one in mind. It's white
The kiss lasted for several minutes and when Xander finally pulled away, Kaylan thought something powerful had gone out of her.It was so special, so wonderful that she didn't want that kiss to end.She stared up into his face, realising she had always been in love with his man. Always."Take the horse. I shall teach you how to drive, princess." Xander said, offering her his hand. Kaylan smiled and placed her hand in his and together they walked towards the horse. Xander helped her up, made sure she was well balanced on the horse before moving few steps back. "Just try and relax as you hold the rope." His voice came out a little bit cold and he cleared his throat immediately.Kaylan chuckled and ducked her head. She was extremely happy, seeing that Xander was trying to be nice to her.She never imagined it would happen so soon and even at all.She held the ropes tight, felt the horse moving slowly."You have to learn how to work with it first. Let's take a walk by the shores, shall
Kaylan walked to the big closet, still embarrassed. She opened the closet and her jaw dropped at the beautiful things she saw in there.Did all these things belonged to Xander's former wives?She shrugged and took out one of the gown and dressed into it, walked to the mirror and smiled on seeing how pretty she looked.The door of the study opened and Xander stepped out. He stared at her with that admiration, evident in his face. "Come on."They both walked to the table and sat down. Xander uncovered the dishes, told her to eat to her satisfaction."Hmm. This is delicious, Jaden will like some of this.""Have the maid take some to her." Xander replied. Kaylan smiled appreciatively. "Thank you, my Lord...Xander." Xander smiled at that and looked at her. "Why are you finding it so hard to call me by my name?"Kaylan stared down at her and shrugged. "Because it is hard. I still find it hard to believe that you are here, sitting with me, smiling." Kaylan mumbled and lifted her eyes to h
The alarming bell outside the palace, gave an annoying shrill noise once it was 6AM in the morning.Kaylan groaned and slowly sat up, rubbing her hands on her face.Jaden mumbled in her sleep, turned to the other side and covered her head with her pillow while Kaylan turned to look at her and scoffed."You are suppose to be my friend, Jaden. You have to wake up when I do!" She leaned over and yelled into her ear."Get off me..." Jaden mumbled and the next minute, she was snoring.Kaylan sighed and shook her head. It was of no use, so she gave up on trying to wake her friend. Kaylan decided to wake up early so she would make Xander's breakfast before anyone does.She swung her legs down from the bed, stood up and stretched.She walked into the bathroom and brushed her teeth, combed her head before heading out."Where are you going?" Jaden mumbled, raising her head as Kaylan walked to the door."To the kitchen, sleepyhead." Kaylan drawled and went out of the room.Jaden yawned and drop
Ayita came out of the house just in time to see her mother, staring dumbly at someone across. She followed her mother's gaze and saw Xander, staring back at her."Mother? What's happening here?" Ayita asked. Her eyes were on Xander.Camilla couldn't talk, she didn't utter a word. She only continued staring at Xander.Xander walked forward, his arms folded. "It is you, what a small world."Camilla shook her head, tears welling up in her eyes. "What are you doing here, you evil man!"Axel and the two other guards rushed forward but Xander put up a hand, stopping them from taking any action.He kept his eyes on the old woman. "You need a seat." Kaylan and Jaden came out of the house when they heard the commotion.They were surprised and confused as well.Kaylan glanced at Xander. "What's going on?""We have to leave." Xander replied. He turned and started walking away. His guards followed immediately.Kaylan stood still, staring at the old woman. She has never been so confused all her l
Xander stared back into her face and slowly nodded. The support and encouragement he saw in the depths of her eyes was amazing but suddenly, he looked away and that cold look was back in his eyes, replacing the sober one."What do you want me to do about that? You want me to beg her?"" If it's gonna break the curse, if appeasing her will set you free..."" Enough. That's enough." Xander replied coldly, his eyes penetrating deep into hers intimidatingly.Kaylan closed her mouth, stared down at the floor when she couldn't take that hot gaze from the cold man.She nodded and sighed. "I will go back to sleep, I'm sorry if I crossed my boundary." With that, she turned and walked nervously towards the bed.Xander stared at her as she walked and cursed under his breath. What has he done?He followed her immediately, his steps, very light on the floor.Before Kaylan could get on the bed, he caught her wrist in his hand, twirled her around so she was facing him.Kaylan's breath increased as X
