Alexis regained her senses. Her heart was aching, she didn't know if it was the alcohol working. People spoke their minds whenever they were intoxicated. To him it was easy, was he the one who made her love him with every fiber of her being. His name was engraved in her mind. His touch lingered still even when it had been years since he left her. By now Maverick had sobered up. His eyes were fully awake although he didn't have control over his limbs"I was scared…the feeling I had for you frightened me"maverick muttered recalling how an eleven years old girl rubbed off on him so deeply. He was frightened to love such a fragile thing. What if he hurt her, what if he wasn't good for all. Such thoughts haunted his dreams."Trust me I wanted to stay every damn second close to you…to protect you and make you mine" he muttered fixing his eyes on her… he was done hiding..she didn't remember him which surprised him and seeing her blank expression, maverick was even more scared"But I couldn'
(Vivienne)The woman made her way to where everyone was standing. Her displeased expression was readable. I've met her a few times but not this angry."She's the one doing all this isn't she?"Mr. Lewis said, turning to his wife. I stood there beside Victor. The man was angry that I saw him. Did all this escalate to such an extent"That doesn't give you the right to raise your hand at her, "Marlene snapped at her husband. This surprised me greatly. The woman was defending me"She sent my daughter to jail…do you expect me to stay still!" the man yelled angrily. By now we were watching them exchanging words. No wonder Martha was spoiled to such an extent. Her precious father wasn't willing to listen to anything he was been told"What rights do you have to defend an outsider over your daughter!"Marlene growled out the words shocking me. Not just me but Mr. Lewis too was caught off guard as he looked at her with shock in his eyes. "W…what…do you mean?"I was the first one to ask and Marlen
(Vivienne)All this was very shocking. I thought I was trapped in my nightmare. Several times I dreamed of having a familyMany times when I was at the orphanage I sat by my bedroom window wishing upon the stare for my parents to come to get meThe sleepless nights I had yearned for people I knew never cared about me. Countless times I was mistreated at that orphanage by the headmistress and accused of things I didn't doThey said I was cursed because no one cared to adopt me like the rest of the kids. It was hard to endure and soon I realized I had no one for meI didn't care what happened to others. I became so selfish that I lived only for myself. I learned to do everything by myself, it wasn't right to blame anyone even when I was thrown out of the orphanage at the age of ten. I was okay, I learned to fend for myself, and eventually, I got used to everything. Living alone, defending myself against the cruel world.Even when I fell ill I didn't care, the times I barely ate anythin
It took coaxing and ravishing for Vivie to understand Victor's point. Early in the afternoon with the sun scorching outside. Whimpering under the man was something Vivie didn't want however with everything going on she needed something to make her intoxicated so she could forget about everything. Finding out about her parents was devastating "Tell me something sweetheart" Victor murmured as he rained kisses all over her body. His hands caressed her inner thighs lovingly. She was gorgeous, so beautiful that he drowned in her warmth. Fondling her as he wanted was imperative. The need to make love to her like never before kicked in"mmm love this" he muttered, sucking in her flesh. Vivienne played with his hair, running her fingers in his silk soft hair. She couldn't ignore Victor's advances even if she wanted to. From his delicious kisses which made her mind run wild to his hands which started a fire each time he caressed her"Talk to me sweetheart" he whispered, rubbing his face again
"No…I won't go…I'm sleepy" Skylar refused, shaking his head when Victor prevented her from getting under cover. Vivienne was rendered helpless seeing how stubborn Skylar was acting. "Sweetie…Papa is sleepy too…why don't you run off to your room"Victor coaxed Skylar at arm's length. The little girl frowned at us. I was stunned seeing her pout cutely"I don't wanna…I want to sleep here!"Skylar snapped and I was even more helpless. Victor didn't look so happy with his daughter's outburst. With ease, Victor reached for Skylar's face and caressed with lovingly"Sweetheart go to Uncle Kyan and I promise to give you whatever you want…anything"Victor coaxed with a sweet smile. I glanced between daughter and father and saw Skylar's eyes glimmer in delight. I wanted to interrupt the crazy talk however I wanted to see how it ended"What do you want Papa to give you…a castle…new toys…millions" Victor said the options and I was stunned seeing Skylar beaming. Was she seriously getting manipulated
(Vivienne)Alexis didn't look so fine. I knew her for three years and what I knew was enough. She wasn't always like this. It was a shame to see her drinking alcohol in such a way"I'm such a fool…I'm so gullible that it hurts"Alexis continued sobbing as she gulped down one bottle of liquor after the other. I already asked the waiter not to give her anymore because she was already wasted. Her eyes were droopy and red. Her speech slurred, it was hard to keep her down when she said she wanted to do the craziest thing to stop the pain"Alex I know but drinking…this isn't such a good idea" I tried to get the bottle from her unfortunately she gripped it like hanging onto her life"That jerk left me…he's a good for nothing man" Alexis cursed Maverick even more. It was a shame to hear why Alexis was drowning in her sorrows like this but I never expected her mysterious love to be Maverick. Forget that I was shocked when she told me everything that happened"I know but let's go home…I'm sure w
(Vivienne)"I don't like him," Victor kept saying as he drove the car to our destination. I failed to understand him. Earlier I tried by all means to avoid a man's brawl, Janice was hell-bent on not letting Maverick touch Alexis in any way. He believed he was one of those rich men who took advantage of women and hurt them"The man just wanted to help out…no big deal" victor was making things up. I was in disbelief thinking he agreed with maverick and his barbaric way of handling the matterI had to convince Janice not to fight Maverick because he was Alexis's lover. Victor on the other side was giving me a sour look especially when I was defending Janice"Still I hate the way he was looking at you" Victor shot back, his expression was a displeased one. For one thing, he was overreacting. This wasn't a time for him to act jealous. Was he insecure after seeing my former boss"I used to work for him…he isn't so bad actually…I have to say he looks more handsome than before….never knew the
"And do you think…now you have succeeded?"Martha asked Vivie as she shot angry daggers at Vivienne. After Frank made baseless introductions as Martha regarded Vivie. He left to talk to the detective in charge. Vivienne only came to mock her. To spit on her "Look here…just know this place is your forever home," Vivie said, smirking at Martha. She didn't want to be here or be regarded as Frank's daughter. She happened to have come here solely to talk to Martha and make sure to tell her she was going to rot in hell for committing crimes"Vic is your friend…that hospital means the world to him…we both know it was dear to his late mother…how could you!"It was heartbreaking to know the people they trusted more were the ones causing pain. She understood one thing. Never take a bullet for anyone because they were the ones driving a knife deep into her back and Martha was such a friend"I didn't do it…I did nothing okay…the only thing I did was cover up for someone…"Martha denied it just like

The next morning Vivienne woke up to the delicious smell of her favorite food. The mouthwatering smell had her stirring as she rubbed her eyes. Pushed herself up only to open her eyes and was startled to find a shirtless Victor sitting beside her with a charming smile plastered on his face.Butterflies swarm her belly making her feel a warm and fuzzy feeling inside. "Good morning baby," the man muttered, leaning forward and stealing a kiss. Before Vivienne could get a taste, he pulled back and kissed her on the forehead. His warmth gave her assurance. Making her blush out of embarrassment "You look lovely, glowing beautifully," Victor added as he cupped her face, and caressed her ears and her soft cheeks. She leaned to his touch, closing her eyes Vivienne let out a soft moan, parted her lips and sucked on his thumb, Victor scooped closer to her and captured her mouth for a kiss. Her hands automatically moved to his face as she pushed up on him. Taking his tongue as deep into her mou
The Night sky was dark with the full moon shining brightly above, The night was still and eerily silent, with neither the sound of night animals nor wind rustling through the trees. The breeze kissing the tree branchesThe moon above had reached its apex and shone silvery light down uponVivienne cupped the mass of him below, the shifting weights heavy against her palm. She squeezed, gently rolled the roundness, while he set his teeth and endured her touch as if he were being drawn and quartered."Baby," Victor whispered as he looked at her with a drowsy gaze, she didn't look so pleased. He understood her frustration. Her racing heart proved just how irritated she was."Why?" She asked while tracing her finger in his chest. Victor was half sitting and leaning his back against the several pillows he had stacked together. His wife was on top of him, resting her hands on his chest"We have to wait, sweetheart… it's just a year… I can't take the risk," he muttered while playing with her
Victor's trembling hands cupped Vivienne's face, moving closer to her afraid that she might drift away, leaving him without hearing him out. He could feel hot liquid dripping from her eyes and landing on his hands as she gripped his hands in preparation to shrug him away"Y-you can't say that… you know how much you mean to me… do you even know what your words are doing to me," Victor whispered feeling his chest tightening, he couldn't stand a day without her, talk of separating from her"It's for the best, I…. I don't want to be a burden… we both know I've failed," Vivienne muttered as she tried to get away from him. Blinking away tears, her eyelashes lifted and met Victor's gaze"Don't punish yourself over a silly matter…," he said, caressing her face, Victor knew she was questioning herself as a woman. But he didn't care about anything other than her happiness "I've failed as a wife, as a mother…sobs… I couldn't protect our child…sobs…I killed our child can't you understand, I'm so
Immediately Alexis and Maverick reached the farmhouse with birthday presents for both husband and wife. Alexis rushed upstairs to Vivienne's room where Kyan told her she wasIt had been a while since they saw each other. Nearly a year had passed and her friend was still the same"Happy birthday Vic, you look so dashing," Alexis said with a smile and hugged Victor who received them from the driveway. The businessman was wearing a black satin long-sleeved black shirt with black jeans, the top two buttons were left open. His hair was neatly tied in a bun and his beard nicely shaven. She had to say the man was a sensation. Even that, the dark circles around his eyes of a man who hadn't slept for days"Stop it, sweetie, you are making the man blush," Maverick elbowed him and Victor smiled faintly"So birthday boy, where is birthday girl… I'm sure you two are excited to celeb your first birthday together," Maverick said with a grin, Alexis saw how the two men were talking and hence decided
Victor arrived at the Ellison mansion, he knew even if he went out, Vivienne was surrounded by the people who loved her more. Leo was there as well as Edmund. Even her two friends were always around cheering her up. Despite everything, his wife was still trapped in a world of pain. He just made sure the people who hurt his wife were no more. That way no one would hurt her again"How is she?" He asked when he met Edmund walking out of the room hiding basket of fruits and boxes of chocolates"She's okay, but still the same… she's sleeping now, Skylar is in the drawing room with Kyan" Edmund informed with a faint smile, Victor nodded knowing full well everyone was always exhausted. None slept in the night because of Vivienne, no matter how much they tried to bring her back, she was just not responding "Vic, I know I'm not supposed to be saying this… but…but as a doctor… don't you think… I mean just a suggestion," Edmund said hesitantly. He didn't know how to put things delicately be
Valentina crawled on the floor helplessly, blood dripping from the corners of her lips, the agony she was going through was unexplainable. With all her might she grabbed the age of the table and leaned toward it."W-what…what did you…ah!"Valentina was in extra pain as the words left her mouth only to scream out when her stomach twisted as she tried bending down, unfortunately, the more she attempted that the more pain she felt. Her eyes were crimson red and filled with tears as she lifted her head to look up. Victor was sitting in the chair with crossed legs. His expression was deadly. Valentina knew at once what happened. He gave her poison and she was dying"You touched her, I warned you to stay away from my wife," Victor muttered angrily, his gaze sharp and devilish. Valentina winced in pain, her eyes were getting blurry. Telling her she was about to die. Shortly Victor rose to his feet. His eyes fixed on the pathetic woman before him"Y… you….I won't spare you!"Valentina shoute
"Are you foolish huh?" a stern male voice yelled startling Valentina who took a step back but straightened her back. Rolling her eyes she made her way to the table, picked up a bottle of wine and poured herself a glass. Mr Matias paced angrily around that Valentina was irritated. Turning around, she sipped on her wine and slowly sat on the couch. Mr Matias was fuming in rage as he turned to look at the woman before him"How much, just how much money did I give you to do one job!" He shouted kicking away a bottle placed on the side table that shattered on the floor and the liquid splashed everything even Valentina's legs. With disgust, Valentina placed the glass back on the table and crossed her legs gracefully "What do you expect huh… For Victor to sit still and watch you… he's bewitched by Vivienne… he dances to her tune like some little boy in love," Valentina said sarcastically not sure why Matias was busy attacking her when she tried her level best to make sure Vivienne and Victo
Cassy and Alexis were visiting Vivienne. With Victor away dealing with the Lewis trouble which had created a huge Scandal. They decided to stay with her. Alexis was even sadder seeing her friend in such a stateShe wasn't talking, Cassy had tried to remind her of the past but unfortunately, nothing happened. Even letting Archie and Skylar bother her didn't help. Not just that but Cassy invited Vivienne's gynecologist to examine herMaybe she thought losing the baby would make her incapable of giving birth and Cassy stood to the sides watching the doctor tend to her. It didn't take a while before the lady was done examining Vivienne."Doc, she'll be fine right?" What Alexis meant to say was, if Vivienne's womb was okay. Maybe her friend was worried about not having kidsVictor had tried to reason with her, but unfortunately, nothing happened"Dr please," Cassy said, gesturing for the doctor to the door so they could talk in private. The doctor nodded and followed the women out, Cas
