You were right? He wanted to gain custody of his child. He knew it wouldn't be possible because Nova was a good mother. However, because she agreed to become Eryx's girlfriend then he had leverage.Eryx was a fucking demon. Someone who killed his own father. He just found out after he asked his assistant to run an investigation on things he has done.And he found out that his brother was responsible for the death of his father. He was going to make Eryx pay. But for now, he would tag him as abusive using one of his flings.And if Eryx tries to misbehave, he will make him choose between getting punished for violence or murder. But of course, he would still make him pay, but not now.After all what is the use of rushing into things? He likes to take things slow. His lips curved upwards.“Well done Kevin”, He said to the drop gorgeous lawyer. He was well known as a very ruthless lawyer when it came to defending his client.Rumors have it that his opponent usually declared guilty just from
“Give me one-second baby”. Nova whispered very gently to Xavier who smiled back at his mummy.He has been unhappy because his mother wouldn't let him spend time with his father when he wanted to so badly. But mind you, he still did have little secret moments with Zephyr in school. Making Nova unaware.Nova walked towards the door without knowing who it was. Until her brain clicked, it was probably Eryx, and he might want to apologize for his misconduct at last night's event.She had never seen him like that, and she wouldn't even lie, she was extremely shocked.As she opened the door, she started to speak even before she saw the person at the door. “Eryx, you have the key to my.”……. She stopped talking just as soon as she started.“How sweet”. The voice interjected.“Kev”… her eyebrows furrowed, and a sneer almost escaped out of her mouth.“What are you… Doing here?” She stuttered. Her brows knitted together, drawing a faint crease across her forehead as her eyes darted back and forth,
“You think you can threaten me to give into your preposition”. Nova said without any form of fear.“You know what? I am calling Eryx right now. He needs to explain all of these accusations”. She picked up her phone and dialed Eryx number.Kevin just smiled. Women were nothing. They are never to be trusted. Because, Why did the woman whom he spent his entire life wanting die just like that, and when he finally found her replacement, she left because he somehow still obsesses over the dead one.“I guess he didn't pick. He interjected with a grin. By now eryx would have found out about his predicament. If you were in his shoes would you be available?” He questioned with a mild tone.“What have you done”! Her eyes were already brewing tears. She didn't understand why Zephyr would do this to her after all the suffering he made her undergo in the past.“Do not fret Nova, all this would go away if you just agree to sign this paper instead”. He brought in another paper.Nova grabbed the paper
It's been two weeks since Kevin visited Nova about the custody case of her child, but Zephyr just wouldn't give up, he was determined to make her life a living hell.Nova was lost in thoughts, her chin resting lightly in her palm, her fingers absentmindedly brushing a loose strand of hair away from her face.The world outside her thoughts moves in a blur, pedestrians rushing by, but she doesn’t notice. Her eyes are fixed on nothing in particular, a storm of thoughts swirling behind them. The coffee in front of her has long since gone cold, untouched, its delicate steam a thing of the past.She couldn't help but think of Eryx and how he cried in her arms after hearing the disastrous charges Zephyr made against him.“I swear, I am innocent, flower”. His voice resonated in his ears. She would always believe Eryx regardless of what because he was a good person. That was what she believed.Her heart believed that Eryx was a good person and every other person was against her.“Nova, Nova”.
Today was a dangerous day. The day that dictated whether Nova would be with her son or not. The only thing was that the decision had already been made.Nova was outside the courthouse. She buried her face in her hands, her breaths coming in short, shallow gasps that sounded like they might choke her. When she looked up, her expression was one of raw, unfiltered devastation: a mixture of disbelief, anger, and unbearable sorrow. Her lips parted slightly, whispering something inaudible, a plea to no one in particular. The world around her seemed to shrink, leaving her isolated in a void of despair, her son's absence already a gaping hole in her heart.She could remember the judge making his judgment.“Due to your connection to Eric as his girlfriend and the fact that he is an abuser. We would be giving full custody to Eric Lockwood. And he will be paying a fine of $20,000”.“Objection, your honour.” Her lawyer, whom she had begged for help, interjected. She had called her immediately aft
As soon as she yelled those words. Eryx couldn't describe the tingling sensation he felt in his heart.Eryx stared at Nova, his eyebrows knitting together in a mix of confusion and shock. “You’re kidding, right?” he asked, his voice low, almost a whisper. When she didn’t immediately reply, his gaze flicked to her hands, searching for some tell a twitch, a crack in her composure, but she stood firm, her arms crossed defensively.“Nova,” he said, his tone sharper now, "you’re seriously telling me you are in love with zephyr even after all he did to you” he breathed out a breath of disbelief.This is the best thing she could do to protect Eryx. She knew she had to protect Eryx from his brother. Eryx wouldn't stop except she does this to keep him away.“LOOK ME IN THE EYE NOVA”. He yelled with gritted teeth and the veins in his neck popped out, matching with the anger his eyes radiated.“My woman has spoken. She doesn't have to tell you any other things”. Zephyr walked forward after he ha
Nova kept quiet throughout the drive to Zephyr's home. It's Crazy enough that she just signed the papers, but one of his rules was that she would start living with him and their child.“Are you okay there buddy”. She heard his deep voice echo in the background. He was checking on Xavier.She couldn't help but think that her life was going nowhere. Because how did she even get here? She thought of everything that had happened to her, and she couldn't help but shed tears.Soon they got home. And they entered the mansion. “Wow”. Xavier was mesmerized by the building. He had never seen anything like this, and it made him excited. “It’s so big! And the lights they’re so shiny!” His small hands skimmed the smooth walls, his fingers brushing the velvet curtains and gleaming doorknobs as if he couldn’t believe they were real. “Is this really ours? Is this where we’re going to live?” he asked, his voice trembling with a mix of disbelief and joy. Each word seemed to bounce like a rubber ball,
“No I haven't”. Eryx replied back as he breathed hard.“Then why do you seem distracted these days? The voice echoed, and he could just tell that she had a creased forehead. You know I need you, this has to work. I can't survive any other way”.“If you flop these you won't find it funny”. The voice warned sternly.Eryx sipped the air hard. Those words were definitely getting to him.“I understand okay, you don't have to remind me. I know exactly what I am doing and when I need you. I am going to call you”.“Better. She clicked her tongue. And you better send me the money to take care of her”. She told him, referring to someone they both knew about.“And for myself too”. Her harsh voice was now less tense.“Stop being a pussy and get to work. Your wish is to attain power against your brother right?”.“If you want that, as well as Nova, you know exactly when to call me. We have the Trump card and that would make him crippled”. When she says crippled she meant mentally, emotionally, fina
OUTLINE 46Nova gasped in shock as her jaw dropped open while glaring at a rather shocking scenerio. Her face hardened as she just kept glaring at the lady. It was the same Anna which followed Zephyr to the restaurant. Nova began to feel uneasy within herself. She had the feeling of just grabbing her and killing her immediately but that would be too much. Nova's eyes moved from the crown of her head down to her feet, checking to see who Zephyr actually saw in her. That was when she noticed that she was wearing Zephyr's shirt. All these little notable facts piqued her suspicions, and the only thing she needed was Zephyr to finally tell her that he was in a relationship with her. She had a lot of questions reeling in her mind. She didn't understand why she had to be seeing Anna with Zephyr every time. It was quite overwhelming and too much for Nova to keep up with. She was trying too hard to vo trol her emotions and get a her act together. But the more she tried to keep quiet a
“Common zephyr, stop it, your wife Nova is waiting outside”. Tiana whispered coyly to Zephyr, who was lustfully sniffing and nuzzling her neck with desperate intensity.“Don't pay attention to her, let's have a quickie, okay”. He said in a commanding and raspy voice that seemed otherworldly. He moves his hands that laid on her exposed cleavage to his trousers, fumbling with the zipper.“I want to fuck you right now Tiana, against that door, so she can hear us”. He growled with silent anger, his breath quickening as he kissed her more aggressively.“Stop it Zephyr, at least let's hear what she has to say”. Tiana reprimanded, pushing his hands away and biting her lips seductively.“Shit, he whispered under his breath. What the hell does she want?” His eyes darkened as he hated the interruption. Hasn't she done enough? He thought within him. She betrayed him even after all the things he had done for her.He guessed the saying, once a stripper, always a stripper, was true. Don't ask him w
OUTLINE 43“The police,” Nova gasped as the police made her pull to a halt. She found herself breathing heavily as she glared at the policeman getting down from his car. “What's going to be my fate?” She muttered as sweat rolled down from her forehead despite the AC in her car. Niva began to think about a life behind bars. Maybe she was scared after all. All she could think of was how stupid she was to think that she was going to walk away after that woman had threatened that she called the police on her. The policeman held onto his handcuffs, which were lying on his belt as he slowly inched towards Nova's car. Nova fixed her eyes forward as he leaned down to her windows and knocked. Nova swallowed hard and slowly pushed her window down. “Good evening, ma'am,” the policeman greeted softly. “Good…good evening, sir,” Nova stuttered, trying to get her act together. “Your Air conditioner is on, and yet you're sweating profusely,” he highlighted, noticing that Nova was covered in

Nova didn't want to tell Zephyr that she had regained her memory. She knew the risk behind doing that. It might as well attract risk from the side of Eryx. Eryx might decide to destroy Zephyr and her son. “I asked you a question,” Zephyr quickly snapped her off her thinking. “I'm sorry. What memories are you talking about?” Nova quickly denied, glaring into Zephyr's eyes. She was so good this time at lying. So it was easy to mask her emotions behind a firm expression. “Nevermind. Then I should be asking you what you're doing here, them?” Zephyr asked curiously. Zephyr wasn't so sure that Nova was being clean with him. He knew that she was hiding something from him. But he couldn't tell what it was exactly. Everything about her was pointing towards a sudden change in personality, and that was Zephyr's first guess anyway. “I need your help,” Nova replied. “I think you should be a bit more detailed. I can't just offer you help like that,” Zephyr demanded. “I need to find out
Nova slowly inched towards Zephyr's door. She took a deep breath, clearing all nervousness within her heart. For a moment, she took a while to remember everything she has done to Zephyr in the past. They were enough for him to turn his back on her anyway. She quickly summoned enough courage to face her fears and knock on Zephyr's door. She formed a fist slowly, glaring at the door. She had many thoughts rushing through her mind. But she immediately knocked on the door, ignoring every doubt that clouded her mind. She waited patiently for something to come and open the door. She knocked again, but there was no response. “Maybe he's not home,” she muttered as she made an attempt to walk away immediately. But the was opened immediately, and Xavier glared at her as she turned back to see him. Nova gasped in shock, trying to control her emotions as she glared at her son. Several thoughts went through her mind as she stared at his innocent eyes. Xavier's face was quickly lit up a
