Back to the present...
"Um...sir?" Noah raised his hand in a true college student fashion. "I think there has been a mistake. Did you say I was engaged? I don't remember proposing." he let out a nervous chuckle.
"There's no mistake, you heard me. You are marrying my daughter Serena and that's final," Alex said grimly.
"Don't bother calling the police. The rumors you heard about me are all true," Alex's cold blue eyes pierced through Noah's heart."If I hear that you said anything to anyone, everyone you love will slowly disappear, one by one," he added.Noah gulped and nodded. He had no intention of calling the police. It didn't take a genius to know that this man was not joking.
"Hey baby," Kelly smiled brightly and gave Noah a small peck. She had been waiting by the door for a while now. What took him so long?"Hey," Noah smiled nervously."Are you okay? Why do you look all nervous?" Kelly asked. She looked at him curiously.
Saoirse observed her daughter quietly. Serena was sitting on the table quietly and playing with her food."Are you okay sweetie?" she asked."Huh? Oh yeah...I'm fine," Serena said and chewed on the fork absentmindedly.Saoirse didn't believ
"WHAT!" Kelly screamed. "Are you out of your mind?""Shh...do you want your parents to hear us?" Noah warned her."Maybe they should hear this because you are being ridiculous," Kelly said. She was fuming."You don't understand Kelly, this
Serena tried to stifle her giggles as she watched her dad staring at Noah, practically glaring. Leave it to him for stressing Noah out even more.Saoirse sat in front of them, smiling as if it was just a pleasant family dinner.They were sitting at the dinner table while planning the wedding. Well...not so much planning as it was mostly her dad telling Noah what to do so he doesn't end his life. And Noah of course talked back t
Noah wanted to slap himself for kissing her back. He felt dirty. He despised Serena at this point, so his attraction toward her didn't make any sense. What was wrong with him? He needed to see Kelly as soon as possible.But first, he needed to speak to his uncle. He was his guardian in the absence of his parents so he had every right to know everything that was happening to him. Noah decided to visit him at his office.He knock
Noah watched as Alexander walked Serena down the aisle. She was wearing a floor-length white gown that hugged her curves. Her hair was tied up into an elegant updo which was decorated with flowers. She looked radiant and beautiful. Just like an angel.His beautiful nightmare, Noah thought."You
Noah looked at the naked Serena next to him. His emotions were all over the place. He felt disgusted at himself. How could he do this to Kelly when he promised her there was nothing between him and Serena. Yet, here he was, waking up next to her after having angry sex.Serena's eyes opened suddenly. She looked at him and smiled.
3 and a half years later..."Logan, for fuck's sake, slow down!" Serena cried out as Logan continued to terrorize both Noah and her at his birthday party. "Go get him! He is getting cake all over his new shirt!" She looked at Noah.Serena was four months pregnant with their daughter Mia, so she had no patience to deal with this cute little demon child of hers.
This time, it wasn't a big wedding. Serena and Noah had a small, private ceremony on the island alongside both of their parents. After it was over, they all decided to have lunch together."I guess we are in-laws for the second time," Ares said and smirked. Alex didn't scowl at him this time."And soon we are going to be grandfathers, so you better get your shit together, you psychotic killer," Alex declared.
Noah stayed glued to her side the entire party. Serena tried to push him away and urged him to mingle somewhere else, but he insisted on staying with her. His hand holding hers tightly."I don't feel safe with you walking around at this party by yourself. What if someone kidnaps you? Or worse, flirts with you!" he said."How is flirting with me worse than kidnapping?" Serena said irritably.
"Is that right?" Melody challenged Noah.As if she had a chance, Noah thought. He would never let some random chick take Serena away from him. She was carrying his child, for god's sake."What do you think?" Noah asked firmly.Serena cleare
"You can't go see her. She could be dangerous," Noah said."Don't be silly. You know who I am. Do you really think she can do anything to me?" Serena scoffed."I get it, but still," Noah said."Awe! You're worried about me. How sweet," she
"What do you mean no rough sex for the first few weeks?" Noah glared at the woman in front of him."I mean, the first two trimesters are an extremely crucial stage of the pregnancy, so be extra careful," the gynecologist said. "In fact, I recommend not having sex for the first two weeks.""I OBJECT!" Noah declared.
At dinner, Serena felt her father's piercing blue eyes boring into her soul. Why was he looking at her so intensely?"Why are you looking at me like that, dad?" she asked. She couldn't take it anymore."If there's something you need to tell me, you need to say it. You know I don't like secrets.
Alex decided to arrange another dinner with the family. He knew he had to tread carefully when he has to confront Serena about Shane. Serena was emotional and stubborn. If he asked her the wrong questions at the wrong time, she would shut herself off and won't speak to him again. He knew his daughter all too well."Are you sure she had anything to do with Shane's disappearance? What if you are wrong? What if it makes her mad that you suspect her?" Saoirse asked. She was concerned about her daughter's well being. She had a feel
"Excuse me, what? I think I misheard you. Did you just say you were pregnant?" Noah turned the shower off and looked at her with shock."You heard it correctly. I took four tests, and they were all positive," Serena said."How is that possible? Aren't you taking birth control?" Noah demanded to know.
