RAINISlowly I came back to self realization, I looked round the room as I could still feel his presence in the room, instinctively I nudged myself closer to where he was.A heaviness filled the air and my lungs. Uncertain. Suggestive. I couldn't say all I knew was that I wanted this moment to be forever -The sudden realization of that one fact made me scared, deep down in my mind I wondered if this was what I really wanted.The silent seconds was like a grenade that would go off any second—As much as I loved this man there was this unknown fear I couldn't quite describe that was as a heavy weight in my chest.It felt too quiet, this thrill that was traveling l beneath my skin that thrummed heavily at having him there.All I could think of was if I had what it took to go through all of this, it seemed quite difficult doing that not with the way he looked at me, like I was the best gift he would ever have.He shifted. “Can we talk?”“About what?” I asked looking into his eyes, There w

ZAVIERA hard shelled heart, I had always kept that till this woman.I thought my perception of herpersonality would be a big enough repellent, but that had been only at the beginning as gradually this werewolf felt tamed.So far my hard heart has shielded me from pain and so many vices and pain that could come from the outside world and couldn’t be cracked without strong tools. But then she had done just that.Raini had lowered that barrier that bared a part of me not many had seen—she had touched the most vulnerable me.She was like a thick cloud hovering over my mind, and I was trying to get her off to no avail.Not when I looked at her, those eyes could steal any man soul and especially not when she spoke with that soft,warm voice that soaked through my skin and ran straight to my heart and soul.I now understood my fascination with her, The fact that I could be lumped into being addicted to her was too hard to take in..I wasn’t sure why I let her see that side of me, but it

RAINII just couldn’t get it out of my mind.Zavier loved me? Or was this a joke? Or was I hallucinating?He actually said it to me and I felt so many butterflies running around in my stomach. I felt relaxed but also perplexed. I didn’t know what exactly was right and what I was doing wrong, I just felt a little bit uneasy.Since yesterday it has been very hard for me to take it off my mind and I just kept on considering it.Did he really mean it?Was he joking?Or was this one of his expensive jokes?This was very serious and it managed to shake me off instantly.I just couldn’t stop thinking about it and how much it would have meant for him to be able to tell me that.A part of me was overjoyed about it and kept on criticizing me for walking out on him in the first place.A lot of things were on my mind and the most important one was how I was going to answer him.I knew how much I loved him but I didn’t know if I panicked or I felt it was wrong but whatever it was, I walked out on

ZAVIER.My heart at this moment was like a place I didn't know, or wasn't so used to, in a way it left me with a feeling of frustration. One was trying so hard to get rid off from my mind and soul as the two felt the blow.There was one fact, and that was there was no woman's heart I'd be more attached to or than at the heart of the woman Ravier, it was so easy saying this and I could tell why it was a bit difficult for me to just let go of her.It could be that my heart was like the last piece of a puzzle, and her mere existence was a perfect fit to make it whole.No matter what I was, I could tell that my heart would always seek her's.I could be anything in the world and not a billionaire and alpha, yet I would havefound my way to her.It was like the law of attraction, only this time I was attracted to the poles of her heart. My heart was doing just one thing,It was seeking a way to get her to my side.Most times, or rather all through my life I had thought that the name Zavi

RAINI Sometimes the fingers of time can't be turned and this seems like one of those moments, the whole situation and everything she said left my mind in an array of mess.I was succumbing to how certain situations could be timeless, I wished I could change it and take back that moment I walked out, perhaps I should have listened to him.Hearing River speak had pointed out so many things, it had shown me more reason why I had made a wrong decision walking out on him.In the afterwake of the whole situation, I was left to reflect on the whole situation. All I could do was walk to the bar for a drink.Minutes later I was right there at the bar, pouring myself a finger of whiskey.The whole whiskey had a kind of warmth in my stomach but yet it couldn't fill in the blank spaces I was having in my soul and mind.While still seated right here on the chair, my phone beeped with a notification.I stared right at it for a minute, looking at River number.River: Hey, where are you?Me: At th

RAINIFor a reason I couldn't quite justify, River was mad at me.If I didn't know her too well I would have thought Zavier put her up to the task though I couldn't point out reasons why this was the case.As she walked out …"River." I said, trying to get her to look at me.She didn’t stop at my voice. She climbed in Zavier's car and slammed thedoor.My chest burned, and without realizing how I’d gotten there and stood close to where she was while staring down at her.“What happened?” I demanded as soon as I opened the door and sat in the driver's seat.She shook her head. “Nothing. Can we go?”It was funny she was playing the nothing trick on a fellow woman as everyone knew that when a woman said nothing she was fucking lying.“You expect me to believe that all of this had to do with nothing?".Her gaze shot to me, and now I had her. Now I could see the turmoil as it sunk deeper into her eyes and was quite reflective.“Yeah?” she whispered.“Yeah. After you tell me why the fuck yo

RAINI All that filled the room after my last comment was silence, it was enough to radiate even between us as I could feel the aura radiating in a manner that seemed so alluring.In fact, the quiet seemed to eat at me the entire drive, I could feel it everywhere around me. The moment was like one of those where you say something that you can't take back, I was in that exact state at the moment.My facts were baseless, but with the way River had reacted today I was in no mood to watch that happen again."Are you sure about what you just told me?"She looked at me like I had said the most likely extraordinary thing, I hated being watched that way,being watched like I was a fucking liar…regardless I could understand her perceptive.I rolled my eyes. "Well, yet to run any test …so I am not certain yet about any of this."She looked as though I was trying to find out if I was hiding something, it was as though she didn't believe that I wasn't with a child."Common Bianca, quit looking at

ZAVIERIn a few days our agreement would end and the contract marriage would be dissolved, at first I couldn't wait for this to happen but as it is now closer than ever I dreaded it. I sighed absentmindedly as I fiddled with my food. I occasionally stuff my mouth with food and chew for a very long time to avoid anyone knowing that I wasn't fine.My mind wasn't at rest as dozens of questions coursed through it, what was the next line of action? Would I just stand back and watch everything go down the drain? I looked at the faces at the table and they all beamed with smiles while I fake a smile as well."Are you enjoying the food?" Raini suddenly asks, startling me.I almost jumped out of my skin in fright but I was quick to mask my shock and fake a smile."Of course I am." I said convincingly.She looked unconvinced but chose to let it go. I let out a breath which I didn't know I still held in, there were a lot of things to do and this one was just too urgent. There was no one I could

RAINIZavier looked at me for a minute, and it was as though he didn't believe what I just said about killing Trinity.For some reason I couldn't get over the fact that the dandelion mystery was back, in a way that looked most frustrating. Zavier had found the dandelion and came back with it, I could tell that the same person had been after me all this while.All concerns that it had been Giselle were far off from my memory since she had faced the same fate when she was found murdered in her home.Keeping all fingers crossed we had to wait just as he had said there was nothing we could do, then wait out all of this till it was over.All this would have been possible if I didn't get the anonymous call.I turned to look at Zavier who was sleeping and walked away to the bathroom to pick, perhaps I could tell what he was going to say if he listened or I wasn't sure if I could trust him enough just yet ."Hello?" I asked, filled with uncertainty."Hello." River voice came back trembling.I

ZAVIERWe spoke to the detective for more than twenty minutes giving him everything that was needed to find River, for me it wasike going through this ordeals again, the first time had been when I had to deal with Raini getting kidnapped and this was the second.Like the detective had told Bianca and myself there was definitely an insider there was no sign of anyone breaking into her apartment.Raini was obviously tired and perhaps hitting her second trimester was starting to weigh in on her as she was asleep as we walked down the hallway to her room.She was right there still asleep in her bed. I walked into her bedroom and sat in a chair close to the window near the bed.With the whole feeling complicated Iclosed my eyes and just took a moment formyself, taking in much breath as much as I could whole reflecting back on the entire situation.I haven’t had too many of these moments in the last few days, moments where I had to reflect on everything that was happening, the truth was

IRENEIt was still hard to take in and at the moment, my mind was racing at the moment.It was clearly on the wall, I couldn't miss it, not after how long I had stayed there with them. At that moment my mind was In a total mess.I stood right there with my head against his shoulder crying, perhaps if I had come in here a bit quicker I would have been able to save my sister.What I couldn't understand was why they had taken her."What did River say when she called?" He asked.I sniffed.With a shaky breath, I began to tell him about how she had called and why she had left in the first place.I explained why I didn't call him before leaving and everything from how I had felt angry when I got here and found nothing but the house in total mess.There was a lot to talk about and he listened to every bit of it. All I wanted to do was get rid of everything in my chest and get everything out in the open. I didn't hold anything back from him as I felt weak …Too weak." Why did they take her?"

IRENEI drove out of the car park as quickly as I could all that filled my mind while driving past the oak trees that surrounded the thick wood shrouding Zavier's home was the safety for my sister, the thought was heavy on my mind as the more I thought about it, the harder it was for me to comprehend.At the back of my mind was the question asking why she had spoken in such a haste, there was a sound of silence before ending the call and despite trying to get her it was certainly difficult to.I thought about calling Zavier but opted against it in my mind as I continued with my trip…The speed I was driving at was so much that it took the thought of the twins I was carrying to make us reduce the speed.As I drove out of the gates and as I did,II spent the next few hours trying to purge Zavier out of my mind, so I replaced it with other thoughts.Or at least my thought was replaced by the thought of my sister River.I purposely looked at my phone again,keeping her call on redial w

ZAVIER.“Stupid move today, man.” Bianca said to me as she sat on my office couch while looking at my face.She was looking at me,in a manner that seemed so complicated."Where did you say she went to again?" I asked since she was the only one that had been with her all this while.I flicked a glance toward her since she had been the only one with her when she had gone out.We were having a good conversation about how my time with Raini had gone.I rubbed a hand across my smile. “I just assumed that she would want to talk to me after what she did."“You assumed wrong,” she said dryly. “She is a woman, she doesn't care about all of this.""You all are complicated." I said, rolling my eyes.Bianca looked at me laughing "With all the shit you’ve done, and the fact that you lied it would be hard for her to trust you again."I sank a little further into the couch.“Everything I do is premeditated. I think about it —You don't expect that I will not tell her about all of this" I said look

RAINITwo quiet knocks sounded on the door, and I walked toward the door to get it opened.From the conversation I had with Bianca it was obvious I had to talk with him. I had been thinking about going to his room but didn't really have the confidence just before the knock came in.When I saw it was Zavier standing on the other side, I stood straighter at the doorway looking into his eyes.With his hair combed back, in a casual shirt and Jean, his countenance appeared welcoming and breathtaking at the same time.His eyes held my stare as I looked at him, in a way it looked as though it was filledwith cold resonance—perhaps he was still angry about what I had said earlier."Are you busy?" He asked."Yeah, not doing anything now." .Every synapses in my body raced as I stood back and watched him as he walked in.My eyes widened on him. As he walked Into the room making way to the window,he stood right there and looked out of the window.Shutting the door, I sighed deeply as I walke

RAINIBianca wasn't the first to warn me about the woman and now that it made two people tell me, it felt like the universe was screaming out something and I would be a fool not to listen.Trinity made her way back. There was an exchange between the two women as it looked as though she had heard something that was being saidIt looked not too certain that she must have heard her as if in a kind of distance."I have to leave, there is something I have to do."I merely nodded my head as I thought it was better she did before any altercations started up.I never expected that they would get along, Trinity never got along with anyone except me and I guessed it had something to do with me seeing the best in people.I walked with her to the door and after closing it behind her, I turned and smirked at Bianca."What?" She shrugged. "I am just telling you the truth. " You should really look into that girl."I sighed and fell back in my seat. I’d been excited about having her over but it look

RAINI-Everything was building up inside of me and I didn’t know the best way to make myself feel better than to cry.I felt so disappointed in myself for not being as strong as I thought I should be but there was nothing I could do.I wanted the best for my children and the fear that something might happen to them made me lose faith IN myself.I started sobbing, sitting up on the bed because the tears were not just coming, I felt Indulged and very weak to have to break down because of something like this.This wasn’t minor, this was my unborn kids and I was already failing as a mother and even before they were born.Just then I heard a knock on the door interrupting me and I immediately wiped off my tears.I wondered if my tears woke up someone but I didn’t think I was sobbing that loud.“It’s me bianca, I know you’re awake, Raini opens the door.” She said gently from the other side of the door.I stood up and walked over to the door and opened the door for her and she walked in.“Co

RAINI“Is there anything you can do to help me make sure they will be safe?” I asked in a shaky voice.My babies, how could they be in danger when they aren’t even in the world yet?“There is nothing. After using the drugs I think it should all go well but I can’t say.” The doctor said picking up her documents and ready to leave the ward.My heart shattered, I didn't know how I was supposed to react to something like this and why things have to get this complicated for me.I was managing to do everything and being my best for my unborn children but everything seemed to be fine till Zavier came back into our lives.“Are you sure there’s no expensive treatment we can use to make sure they would be safe? You can’t just put us on hold.” Zavier finally said walking ahead to the doctor:I didn’t know how I was supposed to feel about all of this but I knew for certain that any money from now I was going to flare out.“No, at this point after getting the drugs, there is nothing that we can do
