Bradley's POV
I have been trying to get hold of Isabella for the last few days and I have failed at every attempt. She has told her doorman not to let anyone up into their apartment and on top of that, my calls went unanswered. Sunday dinner wasn't any different. Of all the things that I thought my little brother was capable of, I did not see this one coming. I never thought that he would quit and to top it off, he did publicly. He did that knowingly that my father will take the news very well. My father is beyond livid.
He told me that I should take over the family business because Theodore had quit, that was all we spoke about on Sunday. I think that it is safe to say that I might also be written off the will given my behaviour at the table. After Tristan quit I realised how brave he was for challenging my father like that. I have always been his puppet, the one person he can count on to do all the dirty work while he reaps the rewards and
Hannah's POV"Come back to bed..." Brandon said to me. Okay so we are officially a couple and unlike Isabella, my relationship with Brandon is real. I can't believe that he has been at one of my weddings, he told me that he was wondering how I ended up with that guy, he was talking about my second husband. The thruth is that I never loved any of them, all of my husband's were there to serve a purpose. I was with them to serve a purpose, it is different with Brandon though, I think that I am actually in love with the man.I actually never thought that I would ever feel this about someone else after all that I have been through. My mother would be mortified to know that I actually feel something real for a man, she has always said that love was just comfort food for the weak and uneducated. I beg to differ. Love is a beautiful thing and up until now I didn't know what beautiful was. To care and love someone and have them feel the same about yo
Tristan's POVI know that my father has always wanted us to do things the way he wanted and as much as I want to do my own thing, I don't want to lose my family. I have realised that I wouldn't want Bradley to have Isabella because I could stand to see her happy if I was not the one making her her feel that way. As much as it pained me, maybe living town won't be such a bad idea, I know that my father would very much appreciate all that, especially since we seem to be fighting for her.Abigail came to my house to tell me that my father blames her and that he offered her a lot of money so that she can leave town, I told her to take the money because I thought that it would be best for everyone if she was gone. I mean at least the competition between my brother and me will be done for. I also have a good reason to believe that he is the one who will take over my father's business because I walked away but I also know that he will
Isabella's POV"How did it go?" I asked Bradley."They believed me." He said."I hate lying to Hannah... " I said to him."I know but we don't exactly have a choice." He said to me."I can't believe that I killed a man." I said with tears running down my face. This was not easy to deal with. I can still remember everything that happened that night. When I close my eyes, I can see the man laying down there on the road, his lifeless body laying still on the cold floor. I mean it was hard to deal with all of this."It was an accident Isabella, it will get better." Bradley said to me.A few nights ago I ran someone with my car, it was a man, that was not an animal, what if he had a family? A wife and children waiting for h to come back home? I just can't pretend like it didn't happen. I feel so awful th
Bradley's POVI never thought that my father would do something like that, why would he offer her so much money? It can't be just because Brandon and I are going for the same girl, it is way more than that. I have to find out what is really going on with him, for a man who seems terminally ill, he seems very healthy. I always thought that he would outlive all of us,the hateful ones always do. I am definitely sure that my father has a plan up his sleeve, one he didn't want any of us to find.I suppose we ruined every plan he had when Tristan and I decided that we don't want any part of it. I mean we were all getting along so well. I finally had my little brother back but of course that didn't last long. I mean I know he also wanted her which is why I didn't understand why he told Isabella to take the money, I mean I thought that he would have wanted her to stay. I think that my little brother is too scared to go for what he want
Isabella's POVHaving to deal with the accident is the hardest thing I have never had to deal with. Bradley told me to take it one day at a time but it is easier said that done. I can't seem to find anything to do that will help me to forget, one thing he was right about was that I couldn't go back to the apartment until I can deal with what happened. Hannah knows me all too well, I can't risk her finding out what happened, Bradley said that it would be easier to keep this secret if we kept everyone in the dark.I suppose he is right and if I am going to convince my sister that I am fine, I have to believe it first. I am just worried about the man that died, I can't keep my eyes off the TV screens or newspapers, I keep on looking for a missing persons notice or something about him. I suppose all that I want is to know who that man was and where he was from, I need to know if he has a family that misses him, someone out there wh
Bradley's POVMany many many years ago...Life is all about choices right? Well maybe for some people. For me, my choice was taken away from me and that hardened my heart, I have to be the man that I need to be and that man has no time to deal with anything but the business. My father is training me to take over his drug business. I have no choice but to what he wants and tonight he gets to see if I am ready to rise to the occasion. I have to prove to him that I am ready to take over." Are you ready son?" My father asked me, he was smiling, he was so proud of me. Only him can be proud of something like this, the fact that I am going to do something I know that my mother would not approve of, I know that she would be disappointed in me. I wish that I could change things and follow the path that I want but I have no choice, this is the life I was chosen for."Here, take this." He said an
Tristan's POVMy brother came here a couple of days ago to make me an offer, I must say that I have been thinking about it very hard, we are talking about taking on my father here, he won't go so easily, he would rather kill us first. I also know that Bradley was right that our father needs to be taught a lesson. I really think that it is about time the old man went into retirement. A hostile takeover is not going to be easy especially since some of our clients are his friends. This is going to be very hard to contain.I know that Bradley is waiting for my answer. I mean I don't know if I can trust him, not only did he steal my girl from me but he is also too devoted to our father, he has always been his lap dog. He has always been doing what my father tells him to do, what if this is just another one of my father's tricks? What if he sent him here to delay me with my plans of doing the business on my own? How can I work with a man I don't t
Isabella's POVI saw what I saw and now I can't get it out of my mind. Ever since then, it has been the only thing on my mind. I killed a man and i can't get that out of my mind as well. Bradley told me that I needed to find something to take my mind off things. Well I have and it seems like he is not willing to help me. I wish I could have just left it like that but it is impossible to do that. Once I get something in my mind, it is very hard to let go.I suppose at first I didn't know what I was asking for so I had to do my research and find out about what I was getting myself into. This is the only thing I have been doing for the last few days, Bradley has been avoiding me ever since that day I asked him to help me. I made a research about the things I saw in his secret room and I was rather intrigued to try them out. I have been thinking about how it feels if I was doing something that I actually wanted to do.
Isabella's POV" Congratulations Miss Murphy, you are pregnant. " The doctor said. I couldn't believe what the doctor was telling me. I am getting married in a few days and I have been feeling a little under the weather for a few days now. I accepted Bradley's proposal and that was not easy on Tristan because he too wanted me to be his wife. I didn't think that he would ever talk to me again because he was so mad. It took a few days but he finally came around and now he is officially my Dom, it has been nothing short of amazing.I must admit that I am amazed at the level of understanding that Bradley has about this whole situation. I knew that I was taking a huge chance and that there was a possibility that he might not agree with what I want, still I couldn't ignore my impulses and everything that I wanted to do have. I want to be happy and I am not staying that Bradley can't make me happy but I had to be real with myself here. It was like my eyes had been opened for the first time
Hannah's POVI thought that my life was over and that I would never see my husband again. They say that you never know what you have until you lose it and that is exactly how I felt in that cabin. Not knowing if I was going to survive to see the next day and if I did, I wondered if I wouldn't slit my own wrists in a bath and get it over and done with. I just couldn't bare the thought of being totured by my ex husband again. I know how bad it could get and I couldn't do it. I would have rather died than allow that man to take more than he has already taken from me. I haven't been able to get over what he did to me. I even tried to see a therapist but everytime I thought or said his name, I would get paralyzed with fear. That man is evil and unhinged. I wasn't even sure that they would find me in that cabin. I am glad that they saw all the clues I left for them. When I went into the bathroom, I wrote down the number plate of the car he was using.They were able to tr
Isabella's POVLife is full of surprises, that I am sure of, for me the biggest one was finding out that I was a kink, that I was different, to think that it would have scared me but it only made me full of wonder. It didn't take long for me to realise that I love it but I also know that I couldn't do it with Bradley. I never thought that I would end up married to one of the brothers for real, I can't believe that I am finally going to get married, for real this time, I swear it feels different. I didn't come to this decision very lightly, Infact it was a very hard decision to make. when I first came to New York. I thought that I was going to end up with Tristan. He was my potential husband to be but I knew that I had to be honest with him. I didn't expect him to act the way he did when he finally found out the truth about my past and why I was pushing him away. I actually thought that he could look past what happened during a time when he didn't even know who I was.
Tristan's POVThey say that everything happens for a reason, I wish I knew the reason why Isabella has put us in this situation. I love her and that is why I asked her to marry me. I didn't even think that there was any reason why she would say no because I happen to know that she loves me. That is why I was confident enough to tell Bradley that I would respect whatever decision that Isabella takes. I fully support her but I am not too sure that I would accept it if she chose Bradley over me. I am the one who has loved her the longest, I am the one who saw her first and if it wasn't for my stupidity, we would be together like we are supposed to be. Instead I pushed her away and gave Bradley an opportunity to move in on my girl. He has his paws so deep into her, she has fallen in love with him. When I proposed to her I thought that she would immediately say yes. Well I was hoping for that because I knew that Bradley was going to do the same thing. I wanted to beat him t
Bradley's POV I love Isabella, God knows I do and there is nothing I wouldn't do for her. She has my heart, she owns me and she doesn't even know it. I never thought that my life would turn out like this. I never thought I would fall in love with someone like Isabella, she is everything I have never looked for in a woman, I suppose that is what makes her so special. I always thought that I would always be a bachelor, that I would die one too. No prospects of having a wife or children of my own. To have to understand that I saw my mother dying in my own arms. I couldn't bare to have my child go through that. The life I had chosen for myself didn't allow my to have dreams of having my own family. I live in a dangerous world, a world that has not place for children. That was before I met Isabella and that is why I have since changed my mind about so many things. You see now, not only am I in love with this woman but I love her enough to want to have children with her.
Hannah's POVI have never seen a man so loving, a man so brave and a man so strong. I love Bradley and that I am sure of. I didn't think that he would be the one I would end up with but in the end I finally know who I want to spend the rest of my life with. Hannah was taken a few weeks ago and Bradley managed to get her back. He said that he had plans to make sure that Sebastian pays for what he did to her. I never thought that he was into that kind of life, that he was a kink.I mean I didn't exactly dismiss the thought that Brandon might be a kink but I had no idea what my sister went through. After the abduction, I took it upon myself to have a little chat with her. I thought that it would be best if I understood what she knows about the underground world. Brandon had to come clean about why she ran away. I will tell you that this was the last thing I expected to be, talking to my sister about her sex life with her husband.&
Hannah's POVI was sitting in the chair looking outside, there was firewood burning in the fire place and Sebastian was on his computer. I want to leave but I know that it would be impossible with him lurking around the cabin. He has basically held me hostage, not that it would make any difference if I reported it no one would believe me. I don't know what his plans for me are but I have a feeling that he won't let me go, well not alive that is. He would rather kill me than let me leave. When I divorced him, he promised to find me.Back then I thought that he was just making idle treats and as years passed, I thought that he had forgotten about me. I thought that he would have another person to fulfill his needs. I suppose that I was wrong because here I am in a cabin in the middle of nowhere with no way to get home. I had so many regrets and the biggest one was that I ran away like I did. It was cowardly especially since I know it in
Brandon's POVI wasn't always like this you know? I wasn't always this guy who would go to the ends of the world for someone they love, that was until I met Hannah. I just didn't know how deep her scars were. Now that I know what really happened to her, I understand why she acted the way she did when I showed her the sex dungeon. I suppose at the time I realised that I should have told her about this sooner. I would have gotten myself a chance to explain to her, I would never hurt Hannah no matter what.I was going Crazy trying to figure who might have taken her and now that we know who it is, I feel even more scared for her. That man is a monster and I am afraid of what he might do to her. I pray that I find her alive and well. I know that I won't be able to forgive myself if anything happens to her. I knew that she was not okay but I still let her go, I should have insisted that she stays at home and talk to me, that we solve things.
Isabella's POVI have spent time with Tristan and it has been wonderful, we have both established that we love each other and than maybe we could actually have a relationship but we also know that it won't be a normal relationship because I am also in love with his brother. I also want to be with him as well. I don't know how this is going to work but I know that I can't have one without the other. I told this to Bradley who decided to surprise me with a weekend away in Hawaii. I couldn't say no to that.When we got there, I found out that he had a beach house, one with a beautiful view of the ocean. The sand was so white and the water was so blue and clear. Waking up in that place was like I was waking up in heaven. The last few weeks have shown me that Bradley is a romantic guy, he is loving, kind and he spoils me rotten. I wanted to tell him about what I was thinking concerning our relationship when our plans got interrupted a
