Gunshots….freaking gunshots after gunshots was all Madeline heard as Elias carried her to a direction she doesn't even know. The gunshots were so loud that her ears almost went numb. Men in black came out from different directions and all she heard were gunshots. Madeline was beyond terrified. Who wouldn't? This was the second time bullets were being fired when she was with Elias. What makes the men start this? Who exactly was he? She thought he was a normal businessman but is this how normal businessmen exchange bullets openly in broad daylight? She tried to raise her head and watch the scene out of curiosity but Elias buried her head back to his neck and pressed it there without releasing her head so that she wouldn't see such a gore scene with dead bodies shattered everywhere. She would definitely faint if she saw these scenes. He understood that she was terrified. After being in a coma for days and now this? She would surely be scared to death. The passersby had cleared the sce
“Are you alright, Maddie?” Elias asked while patting her hair and comforting her. His driver almost had a heart attack when he heard the calm voice that his boss just used on his wife. Never in his wildest dream had he heard his boss speak in such a light tone to someone. Is this really his boss or someone else? He looked through the rearview mirror and if he wasn’t a trained and renowned driver for years, he would have had an accident. What was the boss doing? He was patting the hair of his wife and hugging her back while comforting her. Maybe it was his eyes at fault.He stared at the road again and then back at the rearview mirror and saw the same thing. Has the boss changed? Of course not. He still talks to them in the same rough tone he normally used but how come he was talking so sweetly to his wife and even comforting her? It wasn’t a piece of new news that the boss dislikes soft and petite women like her who would get scared at the sound of gunshots. Though he would say that
“Are you alright? Did you get hurt anywhere?”Elias asked in concern, making her roll her eyes. He’s asking her that? She had just seen him shoot someone in the head and right now, her mental health is at stake and here he was asking if she was alright. She doubts he would be alright if he was in her situation. “I just saw people die in front of me a few seconds ago and you're asking me that? Unbelievable,” she glared at him. All her previous fright was gone from her face as if she wasn't the one frightened to hell previously. Elias shrugged at her before putting his gun away. That freaking gun. It wasn't as if she hadn't seen a gun before getting married to him. Her father owned two to three of them and when she asked he told her it was for mere protection. She has seen him cleaning the gun and keeping them like valuable treasures. But seeing someone using them to kill someone was actually another thing, well men who tried to kill them. Seeing the shooting and the kind of damage t
And how long did they kiss? She couldn't even count it. Was it seconds or minutes before he removed his lips from hers.”“Don't say a word until we get home,” he ordered as she stared at him with half-opened eyes. All through their ride back home, Madeline Kept glaring at him intently and making him feel her burning gaze while he was busy making calls and calls and non-ending calls. Obviously, he was trying to take care of the situation and all that happened in the span of an hour. Her eyes fixated on him without looking at and an evident glare was the only thing she gave him. He was ignoring her. He was acting like he wasn't there after he kissed her and devoured her lips till they became swollen. He was acting all too normal like they weren't in a dire situation some minutes back and like she didn't see him exchanging bullets with men in black. He's been an asshole. That's all he ever is. She was pretty sure that the big bad man knew that she bore an intent gaze on him. Surely he
He was walking towards her. Danger. Her mind screams danger. He was a damn danger that she needed to get away from. He was taking slow strides towards her after roaring at her to stop calling her childhood friend by the nickname she gave him. What was wrong with calling someone by his nickname? Why did he become so angry all of a sudden?“H-his name is Jack a-and he’s my friend. My friend since childhood,” Madeline stuttered. “I see. Your childhood sweetheart then. Don’t tell me you hug all your friends that way and you let them touch you knowing full well what kind of a husband you have.”Oh goodness! Madeline swallowed at his tone. She never knew that it was wrong to hug your old-time friend whom you haven’t seen for years. The way he was putting it sounded like she did something wrong like having an affair with someone else which she never did. Why was he making her scared for such little things? It wasn’t wrong to hug her friend. “It’s normal to hug your friends.”“Even if that
[SMUT ALERT. SKIP IF NOT COMFORTABLE]Madeline held his big callous palm which was heavy and moved it. She moved it oh so slowly and was almost done removing it from her waist when he removed his hands from her and wrapped it around, this time, bringing her closer that her back touched his front. Oh dear lord, save her. What was he doing this morning? Was he trying to make her die of a heart attack? At the rate at which her heart was beating, she might have a heart attack this early in the morning. What happens if she gets a heart attack? She might die.He kept pressing her back on his front and she could feel something hot and throbbing touching her butt. She wanted to move it as it was making her uncomfortable but she couldn't. For one, she knew what that was. It would be so embarrassing that she might die of embarrassment. For two, he was holding her too tightly and she wasn’t sure that she would be able to move a muscle with the way he was holding her. He was holding her as if pre
Madeline unconsciously rubbed her lower body on his thighs, urging him to continue and he groaned. “Don't move,” he muttered in a strained voice while still rubbing on her clit, this time harsher than before. He was stopping himself from tearing her panties and burying himself inside her hard and fast. But this was her first time and he doesn't want to hurt her. He needed her to be open and slick when he goes inside she was so tempting that he wanted to go crazy inside her. This was the longest he had ever gone without sex. It has been months and since he got married to her, he lost interest in having sex with the girls at Aiden’s bar. They both used to go there and get rid of their stress at times. The ladies there were beautiful and shameful just as he liked them but since this lady came into his life, he had been too busy to look outside. Perhaps she should pay and compensate him for being a loyal husband. “Ahh, Elias…s-something,” Madeline groaned loudly and her hips moved, rub
Elias’s hands clenched his fist as he registered all the guard had just told him in his head. How the fuck did the enemies get to know where he lives. He made sure that his house was away from any regular house and not easily found. How come they found his house unless they followed his car yesterday and got to know where he lives? Motherfuckers. Diego!!He was surely going to make him pay if he finds out that he was the one who planned this attack. He should better start digging his damn grave. He angrily walked back into the room and moved to his side of the bed, ignoring the questioning look on his wife’s face. “Elias. What's wrong? Did something bad happen?”“Nothing to worry yourself with, okay? Stay here and don't come out. Lock the door when I come out and make sure not to open the door for anyone, not even the guards, okay?”“B-but… What's happening?”“Just listen to me, Maddie. Do as I say and everything would be fine, get it?” Showing her that he doesn't want to talk anym
She searched Elias’s eyes for truth but found nothing. She doesn't know if to believe him or not. “Is she alright, doctor?” Elias asked. “Ahh, yes. Everything is fine.” The doctors decided to leave the couple alone and walked out of the hospital room. “Stop crying okay? Adalyn is alright.”“I'll stop crying.”“I'll bring her to you, hmm? Don't cry anymore.”He cleaned her tears before getting off the bed and walking to the other side of the room where little Adalyn lay with her eyes closed. She was obviously asleep. He carried her carefully in his arms and brought her to Madeline who readied her hands to carry her baby as tears of joy filled her eyes. “You’ll fall sick if you keep crying like this sweetheart.” Before she could take the baby from him, he retracted his hands. “Elias, give me my baby,” she whined. She was so eager to carry her baby in her arms knowing that she was fine and everything would return to normal. “Not until you stop crying. Clean your tears and I'll give
They all stopped at the realization that a cliff was right behind Anny and one step from her and she would be gone along with the little baby girl in her arms. Madeline almost fainted at the sight in front of her. She could feel her tears flowing freely and her eyes closing on her. If Genevieve wasn't holding her right now, she would have dropped on her knees as her legs were weak. “Anny please, don't do this,” she begged. Anny swallowed. Behind her was a cliff. She might die if she makes one wrong move. The thing is that, whether she gives them the can't or not, she was going to die. If she gives them the baby, Elias surely won't let her be. He was going to make her life a living hell for daring to kidnap his half day old baby. If she didn't give them the baby, she was also going to die as her feet were at the end of the cliff. One move and she was gone. She wasn't going to die alone. If at all she does here, this baby was dying before her. They must feel pain for their baby and re
“If you move any further, then I won't hesitate to shoot you,” Elias warned. He watched as the woman stood still as he pointed his gun at her while moving slowly closer to her. Abruptly, she turned the situation around and placed her hands on the child's neck while staring at Elias causing his eyes to widen. “Move any further and I will not hesitate to kill you daughter,” she warned. The child was crying very loudly by now and Elias stopped at her warning. Abby laughed at that. Now he would know who was the boss here. She was holding his crying daughter and that made her the one with the upper hand. Any move of his now, she was going to throw the baby to a side and while their focus was on the baby, she would run away. At least to save herself.“Who are you and what do you want?” Elias asked. “I guess you can’t recognize me. Look deeply. Stare at me for minutes and you would know who I am. I was really so close to you guys. Look, come on.”Elias’s mouth fell open as he did as she
The imposter ran with all her might away from the hospital when she saw that she was found out and Elias’s guards were coming after her. She ran with all strength in her. If she passed the road, they were going to get hold of her. Worst, the road was kind of secluded that day and cabs were not passing through the road. How was she going to get away from the guards who were almost getting to her? Her legs took her into the bush and she clutched the head of the baby to her chest and ran into the bush that has thick trees and roughy. Her feet moved quickly as she was desperate to get away from the men on her trail. “This damn baby. I should just strangle it to death,” she muttered as she kept on running. “But if I do, I’ll remain broke and won’t make any money. But with this baby, I’ll make a lot of money and pay for my plastic surgery.”Suddenly, she stopped and pulled her wig and face mask that was making her uncomfortable and her eyes hardened. The lady’s head was bald with no inch
“Okay, that's good. Talk to him and call me later.”Elias finished his call and slipped his phone into his pocket before walking back into the hospital room. His eyes scanned the room for the nurse who just came in and he frowned. Where the hell was she? The tray she brought in was there lying on the side of the bed and the nurse was not in the room. These nurses these days were surely lazy. Feeling something off in the room, his footstep accelerated as he walked to the baby’s crib and his eyes widened in shock. “Goodness! Fuck.”He immediately opened the door of the room and asked. “Did the nurse come out?” “No boss, is something wrong?”“Fuck! The baby is missing.” Their eyes widened as they heard what the boss said and immediately, they ran to the room and one of the guards called for backup. “Search every nook and cranny of the room.” Sweat broke out on Elias’s skin as he ran his hands through his hair. How exactly did this happen under his watch? There was no way that he cou
“Adalyn Johan,” the grandfather muttered. The focus of the family was solely on the baby that they didn't notice when Madeline fell asleep after watching them banter about her baby. “Grandfather already fell in love with the baby, I'm sure in years, Adalyn would be running around him.”“That's true. See how carefully he is carrying her.”“Adalyn is so cute that father can't help but love her.”“Grandfather is now a great-grandfather.”The people in the room remarked on the care with which the grandfather held the little girl. He held her like a trophy. A special trophy. He resisted the urge to thank the mother of the baby for giving them such a cute bundle of joy. Adalyn Johan was a bundle of joy that brought the whole family together and ended the animosity between them. Her birth was a blessing. He made a mental note to thank the mother of the baby after this ends. He was going to thank her and ask for forgiveness for his wrongdoings. The baby passed from the grandfather to Elias’
“Date of birth, November 16, 2022. 4:18 pm,” the doctor declared. “Wahhhhhhh, the baby’s cries were the only noise in the room as the nurses cleaned him a little before placing the baby on the chest of the new mother who patted her back and bend her head to stare at her before turning to look at Elias who was smiling at her. Their eyes gave many expressions as they smiled at each other while staring at the baby who had stopped crying. Elias stared at the baby on Madeline’s chest and his heart filled with indescribable emotions. Their princess was here. Their own baby. The baby who they were going to give all their love and affection to. Their very own firstborn. The nurses came to Madeline’s side and took the baby from her to go wash and dress him up. “You did well, sweetheart,” Elias whispered into her ears and cleaned the drop of sweat from her forehead before. He could see that she was tired but still wanted to hold her baby and feed her before succumbing to darkness. “Our bab
“Isn’t it time yet? It’s been hours already,” Madeline cried as she rolled her hips on the big pregnancy ball that helps with childbirth. It’s been a month already and her water broke some hours back when she was sleeping. Elias was the one who noticed it and asked her so they rushed to the hospital. But here they were, fourteen hours already in the hospital but the doctor was still saying that it wasn’t time for her to start labor yet and she still has to wait for a few more contractions. She has been having contractions for fourteen hours now and the doctor still tells her that. The cramps and pains were making her almost go crazy. “Just some more contractions ma’am. It’s not yet time,” the attending nurse answered. Few more? That was what they have been saying for hours now. And this stubborn baby refuses to start coming out. Just as she was about to lash out at the nurse, she saw Elias coming towards her with a can of water in his hands. “Here, have some sweetheart,” he opened
“Want me to show you the gift I got for you?” Elias asked, walking Madeline out of the house, her eyes tied with a white cloth. Their guests were gone already and just the two of them in the condo. Elias held her hands and guided her steps as she couldn't see. “Where are you taking me?”“You'll see.”He guided her to the open garden at the back of the house and stopped. “Ready to see your gift?” “Stop wasting time already and show me the gift.” Her curiosity was top-notch right now and she so much wanted to see what exactly he got her that was different from the others that he had to bring her somewhere apart from inside the house to display. She was so curious to see what it was. “Okay then, are you sure you're ready?”“Elias... I am. Open my eyes already.”“If you say so.” His hands moved to her eyes and removed the white cloth. “That's your gift.”Her eyes widened as she stood frozen on the spot and stared at her gift. Goodness. This was what Elias got? Her mouth opened agape
