Enzo Denver.I have devised a plan for Kyla’s biological mother to escape from the facility. With the help of Diezel and Ranger, we worked things out from it. I will entrust Kyla’s mother to a facility owned by Diezel's close friend.“Don’t worry too much about this, Enzo. Leave it to us,” Ranger said with a wicked smile.I shook my head and chuckled a little bit. Ranger often comes and goes like a wind. He’s the youngest amongst all the Mondragons who can move freely around.“Here, grab this.” Diezel handed me a box of instant noodles.“That’s for your wife, not for you,” Diezel smirked at Ranger after handing me the box. I shook my head.“What the hell, Dez. That’s plenty. Do you want Enzo and Kyla’s future kid to become instant noodles?” Ranger laughed hard.I gritted my teeth and chuckled. “Asshole. I’m not gonna let my wife eat this. It’s unhealthy. Here, take it back.” I pushed it against Deizel’s chest, and the lunatic laughed. Ranger then quickly grabbed it from Diezel.“Hey
Kyla Eva."W-Water. . ." I swallowed hard as my throat was dry.When I opened my eyes, it was pitch dark. There was no single light, and my hands were tightly tied behind my back.Kylie is back. She's here in Sorrento. Oh no, Enzo!I felt helpless and devastated thinking about him. What am I supposed to do now? I don't know. I don't even know where I am.The last thing I remember was I was in the toilet with Kylie, and right after that, I don't know what happened to me.I slightly shut my eyes the moment the light turns on."You're awake?" His voice is calm and familiar. "How are you feeling?" he asked.I blinked a few times, trying to get a clearer vision of him until he opened the door. My eyes widened a fraction of the moment I saw his face. It was Dominic."Dominic?" My mouth parted, and I couldn't believe it.It was him. It was him who abducted me here."Dominic, what do you - ""Are you hungry? He cuts me off. He bends halfway behind me and releases me from my handcuffs."I'm s
Enzo Denver.The night was unsettling, and despite my efforts to fall asleep, I couldn't shake the feeling that someone was calling me, leaving me restless.It throbbed. It felt like someone dear to me was calling my name, asking for help. I can't explain it. It's strange.I looked at Kyla, who was sleeping beside me quietly, and somehow, looking at her now felt hollow.Today is our third monthsary wedding. I didn't hear anything from her. She told me the other day that she had prepared a surprise for me, but it seemed like she had forgotten it.After Karing had cooked the noodles, Kyla ate only a spoonful because she had vomited. It's unusual for her to vomit because of that. I saw how she enjoyed it the other day, and tonight, it seems like she's not used to eating spicy stuff.It must be the pregnancy. Do her hormones change?Dammit. I'm a doctor, but I'm so clueless about this.This is not my field of expertise, but of course, I should know better. But why the hell does my heart
Enzo Denver.I was confident that Kyla had left it before the wedding. I didn’t see her wearing that thing. It’s new. A symbol of a past I thought was buried.My jaw tightened, and my chest throbbed as I looked at the ring on her finger again.“Karing, can I have warm milk instead of this?” She handed back the warm lemonade Karing had made for her.“Are you feeling okay, Miss Kylie? Is your morning sickness subsided?” Karing asked as she grabbed the warm lemonade out from her.“Yes, Karing. I’m feeling much better today. Thank you,” she gladly smiled at Karing.That put me at ease. I shook my head, trying to shake off the worries around me.What the hell am I thinking right now? This doesn't seem right. She’s Kyla, of course. But why do I feel this way?I ate quietly, and so did my mother. I glanced at my wife with suspicion, and she sweetly smiled back, her eyes betraying nothing. I swallowed hard, as I couldn’t understand what I was feeling right now.It’s too early for suspicions.
Kyla Eva."You haven't touched your food?" Dominic looked concerned as he observed the untouched tray, which sharply contrasted with the fresh lunch tray in his other hand.I mustered a weak glance with my eyelids heavy, exhausted with him. I wiped my mouth, made a feeble gesture, and shook my head in response to his question.The truth is, I couldn't force myself to eat. I hated the smell of the garlic around it, and there was something about the food that I didn't like. I vomited a few, and I felt weak already. I could no longer bring myself even to taste it.I called him earlier, but it seemed he wasn't around on the other side. I wanted to ask for warm water with lemon on it, which is what I only want at the moment. That would probably heal my sickness.He placed the new food tray in hand on the small table and took the other one."Dom, can I have warm water with lemon on it, please?" I weakly asked. I felt sweaty, messy, and dirty. My body was so weak that my mind traumatically
Kyla Eva.It's a narrow footpath, and the people around the corner appear suspicious. Most of them are elderly and peculiar. The thick clouds of smoke enveloped the air, and the stench of alcohol made me feel queasy. I closed my eyes and regulated my breathing as we walked past them.I tightened my grip on Dominic's hand. He held my hand tightly as we walked quietly. The drunken cacophony of the other group almost gave me a heart attack when they all fell silent as we walked past.I cowered in fear, only able to see Dominic's feet as I followed in his footsteps. My worry dissipated when I spotted the exit to the wet market.Now I remember this aisle. It's next to the public toilet, where I saw Kylie the other day.A black car was waiting for us, and Dominic promptly opened the car door. He ushered me inside, sat beside me, and signaled the driver to speed up.I was about to take off my sunglasses, but Dominic stopped me. He slightly shook his head, telling me not to take it off. I gl
Enzo Denver.I'm trying to control my temper because I can feel my body shaking. I want to lash out at Kylie, but there's holding me back. I was right with my instinct last night. I've been thinking of Kyla, and now she seems to be in danger.If I confront Kylie now, I won't get any information from her. I know her. She's as hard as a stone sometimes and won't cooperate."I am tired, hon. I want to take a rest," she expressed as she walked towards the car.I gritted my teeth." Okay. Let's go home," I responded, balling my fist.Dammit. I need to hold my temper. I need to, for Kyla's sake.I drive quietly. My mind is out of nowhere as I'm planning on what to do next. I have to be careful in my next move. I need to get Kyla. But before that, I had to check something at home and then ask Diezel for help.Kylie kept talking. I wasn't listening. We are close to home now."What do you think, hon? Enzo? Are you even listening?" her voice rose."What?" I said coldly, and my grip tightened on
Enzo Denver.I walk tip-toe into the bedroom. I hear the shower running and presume that Kylie is inside having a bath.My brows furrowed as I surveyed the room. I saw Kylie's bag on top of the bed and opened it. There was a phone inside, but this was Kyla's phone and not Kylie's. I know that.I cautiously step into the closet area, my heart pounding in my chest. It's in a different room, just on the other side. I'm utterly perplexed as I scan the items, feeling the pressure of time closing in on me."Thirty seconds, bro. What the hell?" Diezel's snorted in the line.I freeze as my eyes dart around until they land on a plastic bag tucked in the corner. I snatch it up, and my hands tremble as I inspect its contents. My heart skips a beat as I find a cellphone, one that is completely unfamiliar to me. I slowly stepped out and went back to my mother."I got it, Dez," I mumbled, turning it on."Okay, point the camera on it now," he requested.I don't know how Diezel and the other boys ac
Louise Rose.A beauty like no other. There are no similarities between them, but I can tell how close they are to each other. Their closeness is undeniable.“Oh please, Hendrix. Don’t be so dramatic. This design will perfectly fit Louise. She’s gorgeous.” Elle looked at me with a sense of contentment.I feel comfortable with her. She’s not what I expected. I thought I would have a hard time because most people born into very wealthy families tend to be perfectionists. But not Elle. She's enjoyable to be with, straightforward, sincere, and beautiful. In fact, she doesn't care about brands and prefers simple clothing.“The side slit is too high. They could almost see her thigh, Elle,” Hendrix complained.“We can always adjust it. Tsk,” Elle shook her head. "That’s it. I’m done with you. I’m not showing you any more designs that Marilou sent. It will be a surprise from now on. You are not allowed to check or decide what we want to wear.” Elle took the brochure out of Hendrix’s hand.“I’
Louise Rose.I couldn't stop myself from smiling. I'm over the moon and hope this happiness will never end soon. But am I afraid of changes? They say you can't be thrilled about much happiness because there's an aftereffect of that.I never believed in that, but now that I'm experiencing this feeling, I'm scared that it may turn bad.I crossed my fingers behind me as I looked at Rosy. She's beautiful today. I visited her early to make sure that she was okay. I can't visit her in the afternoon now, as she gets tired quickly."You are so beautiful, Rosy. I admit you lost a lot of weight, but still pretty as always." I touch the side of her face. She had wrinkles everywhere, and her eyes were soggy. But still, she is the most beautiful in my eyes."Oh, thank you, dear." She sounded weary and had a raspy voice, and her cough gave her a hard time. It sounded so bad."What did your doctor say, Rosy? I want to talk to him. It seems like you're getting thinner each day, and I don't like it."
Hendrix.She’s addicting like a drug. It’s hard to get her out of my system. I become an animal in bed whenever I’m with her. She can transform me into a .naughtbad guy for sex, and it blew me away. I enjoy it. It has never happened to me before. Everything is new, and I’m loving it with her.I thrust slowly, easing in an inch more, and her body rocks forward. “That’s it, love,” I jerk my head a little, quivering.“Can you feel how badly I need you?” I bit my lower lip, and we stared.“Yes…” She shut her eyes, and her head fell back the moment I thrust into her deeper.This is wild. I’m inside her, full, tight, and magical. I kiss her aggressively, and I fucking struggle with control. I don’t want to come yet, not yet. I want her to go first. I want to do that.“Come for me, baby.” I thrust further, and she whimpered into my mouth."Hend…oh…I need more, please.”I smile wickedly, licking my lips. “And you will get it, baby.” Holding her waist, I lift her slightly and begin my ride. H
Louise Rose.What was that? I was sure I heard someone in the background calling him sugar cups?I twisted my lips, looking confused at the dead screen. I sighed as I spun back to what I was doing.I'm at the flower shop in front of Canor's convenience store. Shella has done a lot of work lately, and she's loving it here. She will be staying here in Eden from now on and will officially resign from her previous job. Her fiancé is fine with it. In fact, he believes it's better for them to be this close.It's past five in the afternoon, and it's closing time soon. Rosy seems tired lately, and they can't get her to stay awake after five. The nurses told me that her medication makes her very drowsy and causes her to fall into a deep sleep.I wonder what's wrong with her? I was sure it wasn't that bad. Her doctor mentioned that she’s fine and will get better soon, but the findings are puzzling, given Rosy’s age.I turn the lights off and shut the shop's door. I still have an hour to prepar
Hendrix.What the hell?Steph hugged me tightly, and I tried to move away, but I was cornered."I miss you so much! I'm glad you're here, Hendrix," she whispered, holding onto me tightly."Steph… hang on," I said as I tried to escape her. I was still holding my phone, and Louise was still on the line."Hey, Louise, can I call you back later, babe? Bye," I sighed and ended the call. Steph's hugs were suffocating."Oh? Are you on the call with someone?" She relaxed a little and sat down on my lap, wrapping her arms around my neck. I checked my phone screen to ensure it was off."I need to…" I pushed her gently and stood up. I walked toward the door, eager to leave my office. My two secretaries stood at their desks and looked at me. I gave them a questioning glance, and Santa nodded toward me."Don't give the girls a hard time, sweetie. They already told me that you are on an important call, but I want to surprise you. There's nothing wrong with that, right?" She follows me closely as I
Louise Rose.Now I know.So, Hendrix's mother met Rosy and asked about me.What's her problem with me? She’s driving me crazy, and I will not back down. She wants me out of her son’s life? Oh well, that’s impossible now. I will not give up, not until Hendrix gives up first.I kept pacing back and forth, troubled by the situation. Shella was looking at me in silence, eating junk food.I had a good time with Rosy today. We had a picnic in the garden, and she loved it. She got tired after that and wanted to sleep, so we concluded the day for us, but I will be back tomorrow for lunch again."Stop walking back and forth, Louise. I'm getting fogged," she rolls her eyes backward at me."As I've said, ignore her majesty. She's hard to please, and I heard that she's bipolar. Tsk..." She jiggled her head.I halted in front of her and placed my hands on my hips. "Hendrix has a little bipolarish in him, too, but not bad," I said, twisting my lips.She laughed again. "But you still love him. Boys
Louise Rose.I tilt my head back and hold onto the side of the mattress. I can see stars. Hendrix kisses me down there, putting my entire body into flames. I could only hold back my orgasm for a little while as it came quickly."Fucking wet, babe." He hoarsely said, rising below and crawling back on top. He kissed me, and I could taste my arousal. He parted my legs using his knee, settled in between, and slowly pushed inside me."Hendrix…" I moaned, feeling all the stars again. My nails dug into the back of his skin when he started to thrust.It was rapid, full, and addicting.There's no better way to express what my body wants, as Hendrix can clearly see our desire for each other. I know this is crazy, but I couldn't stop him from wanting me. I couldn't stop this either, as it happens naturally with us.Earlier, I was thinking of how to get away from him, but here I am underneath him, and we are fucking. I tried to open a conversation, but it seemed like he knew that it was coming f
Louise Rose.Spare me, oh God.I looked at Hendrix, annoyed at what he just did. We're back now at our usual spot. Like always, he shut this area exclusively for us. The food on the table appeared appetizing, but I had lost my appetite long ago. His mother's sharp words played like a broken wireless inside my brain, and I just wanted to sleep and go home."Louise…"I blinked and looked at him again, cutting off from what I had imagined."Eat, Louise, and we will talk after this, " he ordered, putting food on my plate."How could you say that to your mother?" I said calmly.He paused, sighed softly, and tightened his jaw. "I don’t know what my mother has told you, Louise, but it’s best not to follow her advice.""She doesn't like me at all." I jerked my head up and chuckled slightly. I can't believe I'm telling this to him now."It's my choice. Your mother wants a wife that belongs to the royalty, Hendrix, and that's not me." My shoulder sagged.He dropped his fork, and it made a loud
Hendrix.It's heartwarming to get a glimpse of Louise's private life. She never mentioned anything about her mother, and I never asked. Every time we talked about families, Rosy was the only person she admired the most. Now I know the reason why. It must be hard on her. It's not easy to grow up in an environment without one parent. But I'm glad that Rosy gave Louise all the love she deserves.Rosy shared the details about Louise's mother with me. She is seeking information on her current whereabouts, and if possible, I would like to help find her before she passes away. Rosy also informed me of the heartbreaking news regarding her health.I felt like the weight of the world was on my shoulders. I wish I could ease Rosy's pain so that she could stay longer for Louise, but her time is running out. Asking for my help to find Louise's mother was her last hope.I promised her that I would do my best to find her sister, Louise's mother, and take care of Louise no matter what happened.I st
