What was left there on the table fell and in the next second Mason was in front of her.

With her proximity and menacing aura, Allora took two steps back, irritating Mason. He grabbed her roughly by the forearm and pulled her closer to him. Looking directly into her teary eyes, he said, "If you need a man, you can come to me anytime, is it necessary that you prostitute yourself in the office too?"

Once his words ring a bell for Allora, the tear-filled eyes begin to droop. She gasps from the physical and emotional pain

also. She wanted to hit him, punch him, but his iron grip on her was making her feel helpless.

"Let me go," she stammered. It was a big thing for her to even finish her sentence while she was going through the agony. Agony at her accusation. Agony for indirectly calling her a whore.

"Why? Not satisfied with him? I can satisfy you right here, right now," Mason said as he breathed through clenched teeth.

    Mason dreamed of a surreal place, completely calm and peaceful. He saw a kitten hiding under a tree and when he saw it he crawled back."Fine, I won't hurt you," he said as he walked towards him without breaking eye contact with him. Slowly, the kitten got comfortable with him and was nudging his head into his shoulder. Suddenly, it began to move violently, hitting him with its tiny claws.Mason tried to relax, but he freaked out when he said, "Let me." He was stunned to see an animal speaking like a woman, then he felt something like a prick on his face. When his eyes snapped open, he saw a furious-looking Allora caged in his arms."Mr. Ali, how dare you? if you do not leave me now I will report you as sexual harassment"He grinned at her furious form with the disheveled hair, making her look like the same kitten he'd seen in his dream. He stirred still holding Allora in his arms and moved over her, startling her, "you came here of your own free will, go ahead and report, the apartm

    When Sharon opened her mouth to retort, Elijah grabbed her shoulder and shook his head. Looking at her haggard form, he sensed that she needed more than company; she needs to rest before she can resolve the issue with Mason. Now that court was involved, they could not do much; otherwise things would get difficult for Allora.On the other hand, Allora felt terrible for forcing her friend to leave as soon as they arrived and that too when she was the one asking for her help, but she needed to leave her emotions alone to think clearly. After sending them off, she went to her room and lay on her bed feeling dizzy.She does not remember when sleep swallowed her.She did not know how much time had passed, but her sleep was disturbed when she felt someone stroking her cheek. The moment her eyes opened, what she saw was Mason sitting on the edge of the bed. A scream escaped her throat, realizing she'd locked the door; so how did he get in?"It is okay, it is me," he tried to comfort her, s

    Zara's broken voice made Mason's eyes widen. "Zara, are you okay? W-""Abi, why did not they kill me? Why did she let me rot?" her sob clogged Mason's throat."Zara, please tell me, where are you? I will go get you."However, the other side was left blank."Zara? Zara, can you hear me?""Damn it! Tell me, where are you?""The woman speaking to you has fainted," an unfamiliar voice spoke from the other end."Who are you? What happened to her?""I found this woman unconscious near the beach. She looked like she had been attacked, so I called the ambulance. She came to and asked me to call her number," said the boy."Which hospital?"Mason did not know how he drove all the way across town to the hospital, as told by the boy on the call. He ran to the front desk to ask for information on the patient who was taken to the emergency room."Doctors are examining the patient. You can go to ER 3, go straight ahead and take the corridor to the end. The ER is on your left," the receptionist sai

    When the memories of last night came back, she cringed and crawled back, "Stay…stay away from me," she said in a shaky voice."Are you scared of me?" Mason did not like the way she backed away in fear."What did you do to Sharon? What…" she stopped to look at her clothes which were the same ones she wore at Sharon's house, and stammered, "you… you carry chloroform like a perfume, you kidnapped me , are you....are you going to lock me up?""What? You think I am going to do something like that? Do I look like an obsessive stalker to you?" Mason said.When Allora neither denies nor justifies again, he understands that she is looking at him as an obsessive psychopath who wants to keep her prisoner."Just freshen up and head out for breakfast, or we'll be late," he huffed, not believing she could imagine him like that."Late for what?" She questioned him, still skeptical of his intention."Office," he shrugged before adding, "or do you want me to lock it up until I get back? It is your c

If he does not have a problem, what are you upset about? My daughter looks beautiful" when said Allora just blushed and lowered her head. head."We must?" Mason asked, feeling uncomfortable taking his wife out on a date and being afraid of her father."Do not forget to drop her off before 11," added Rayan, but again his wife responded, "stop it, she's not a teenager and she's seeing her husband.""He may have won you over, but son, it is still a long way to earn my trust," Rayan replied, looking at Mason with a challenge."I am ready to wait until you can trust me," he cleverly dodges the topic of leaving Allora ahead of time.The next stop was Sharon's house.

I need time to get dressed, so pick me up at 8 pm I say," she replied with a frown.A familiar smile soon graced Sharon's face as Mason and Allora left for the car."I am sorry, Allora," Mason said for the umpteenth time since that day."I know," was Allora's quick reply."I know you need time to forgive me for suspecting you of having an affair with Daniel and making you abort our child," he pleaded while they were alone in the elevator."It still pains me that you think that way about me. I can understand why your mother would want to create a problem between us, but how can you believe her?" she said."How is your mother now?" she asked instead of waiting for an answer.She knows what happened, she can not change it, nor can she be hostile towards Ruby now that she was paying for her sins.

    "Yes, we managed to save the mother and child. Congratulations on the boy.""We'll be moving your wife to the ward shortly. She's under anesthesia and will wake up later." With that, the doctor was out of sight.Mason was still in a daze when Daniel tapped him on the shoulder enthusiastically."The freak is a father now," he chuckled, looking at Mason."Am I a father? Son?" he giggled like a teenager realizing it."I am a father to a prince," he cried, hugging his friend in ecstasy. "Shhh..." were the numerous responses they received in return.Allora was taken outside and transferred to her ward, as told by the doctor. Mason was looking intently at his unconscious wife and stroking her pale cheek. It was when the door opened that he saw a nurse carrying a bundle. He froze as he caught sight of movement, realizing the nurse had brought her son to him. He hesitantly looked at Allora, as he did not know how he was supposed to hold his son. What if he hurt you by mistake?Danie

    Allora was frozen in place even when Elijah lay unconscious on the floor. Pain, anger, frustration and every emotion rushed through her. She did not know what would happen to her or how she would deal with the consequences of going through so much, but she could not care less. She was tired of being the damsel, with people breaking her trust. At that moment, something snapped inside her. She was so overwhelmed that she did not ice the absence of her baby kicking inside her and a gurgling ache running down her spine. She did not even not ice Daniel approaching and untying her hands. She did not hear him speaking to her quickly. All she could feel was a sudden wave of pain shooting through her back and abdomen.A heart-rending scream ripped from her mouth as her body gave in, resisting the waves of pain through her body. For a moment, the room was blank for her; the only sound she could hear was her racing heartbeat. She knew she was going to hit the floor at any moment, but two arm

    One, he was already injured, and two, he wanted to drain Elijah of his energy and deplete him before striking him with his blow. He quickly took two steps back creating a safe distance between them that only pissed off the latter. The normally calm Elijah was overshadowed by jealousy seeing something in Allora's eyes for Mason that he was desperately trying for himself, love and concern. He threw two consecutive punches, which Mason easily dodged, before Elijah turned to land a hook to his throat, only for him to duck in time."You can not force love on people, Elijah. Even if I was not there, you still wouldn't be able to win her heart," Mason muttered, earning a snarl from Elijah.The angrier he gets, the more he uses up his energy. Exhausting him and then attacking him was his strategy. With everything that had happened so far, he realized that Elijah was a calculating and controlled person, and now, his rage was blinding his senses."Even if I die, she will still be called Mrs. M

    “You know I would have liked you if you weren't a part of Allora's life,” Elijah said genuinely and the look in his eyes supported his words.“The feeling is mutual Mr. Johnson. If you weren't the reason for her pain.""Since this will be your last moment, I will ignore all your futile attempts to provoke me," Elijah replied. He made him stop in front of a door and encouraged him to open it. The first sight Mason caught was the glimpse of Allora's face that was unusually red. When he got closer, he not iced that they were handprints. He growled and glared at Elijah.“How dare you slap her?” he screamed and did not care if he got shot. He marched toward it, but stopped in the lane when he saw Elijah pointed at Allora.Allora, who until now had thought she would hallucinate when she saw Mason, opened her eyes in disbelief. She whispered his name, which caught both their attention."Allora", he waited 3 months to see his wife, call her, but never in his nightmare did he expect to find

    "Let me go," she started to struggle to get out of the jeep, but Mason's grip on her wrist was strong. The next moment, Ronam started the jeep and drove towards the same forest.During the entire journey, Zara Helena pretended she did not know anything and was again playing the victim card. She tried several times to convince him and yelled at him to let her go. It was only when Mason threatened her with a knife that she blanched. Her breath hitched when she saw them enter the forest.“Did you like the place?” Mason asked her as the jeep pulled up to the edge of the woods.“Why did you bring me here?” she asked in response.“You know the answer to that Zara Helena, do not you?” he stared at her in disgust."I-," she wanted to deny it, but Mason cut her off, "You still want to deny it.Mommy is awake," that sentence was enough to take her breath away."And," he continued, "Dan told me about the divorce too.""Please believe me.
