“Wake up, princess.” Sebastian whispered tapping Kaira who lay on the bed. He had just returned from work to find her asleep. There was no doubt she was tired from the whole stress and everything going on in her relationship with Sebastian. Kaira stirred awake, rubbing the sleep off her eyes as she stared at Sebastian now fully awake.

“Sebastian.” She called out with a small smile as she sat up from the bed. She had glanced at the clock every one minute, waiting for him to return so they could finally talk. She had fallen asleep while trying to wait for his return so she could ease the turmoil in her heart.

“Where you waiting for me, princess?” He asked casually, as though he had not snapped at earlier that day, while Kaira was happy he was back to his usual self as it seemed she also wondered if he couldn’t turn to a different person whenever they had a slight dispute. She took a good look at him to see he was dressed in his casual wear, seemingly ready to go out. Was he running

He stared at the news which was headline, while he wanted Kaira all to himself, the news did him no good, because it was ruining his own reputation. He suspected Sebastian was the one who created such frenzy news so as to ruin him. “You see were all your crazy has landed you right?” Evelyn snapped angrily as she entered the room, holding a file in her hand. She was already over the edge because of headline news which was ruining Julian and Kaira’s reputation while skyrocketing hers and Sebastian’s. She won’t have cared about it if it were only Kaira involved but with Julian now in it, she wanted to clear the mess as soon as possible. “What do you want now?” He spat out, placing his phone down by the side table close to the bed.

    “Mrs. Ashford, you have a visitor,” Butler James announced, his tone as formal as ever.Kaira raised a brow, curious about who would visit her unannounced. She had been laying low for the past two days, avoiding the outside world since her last visit to the Ashford estate. She was determined not to be the cause of Sebastian losing everything he had worked so hard to build. Despite Sebastian’s insistence on keeping her at the company, Kaira was equally resolute about stepping away. The internet buzz surrounding the scandal had died down slightly, though whispers still lingered.“It’s Mr. Stone, in particular,” Butler James clarified.Kaira’s expression darkened instantly. Julian Stone. She hadn’t wanted to see his face ever again, not after everything he’d done. Yet, on second thought, her curiosity got the better of her. Why had he come all the way here?“Let him in,” she said, her voice cold and detached. Turning her attention back to the television, she sipped her wine, pretending n

    “Nice to have you, Mrs. Blackwood,” Sebastian said with a stoic expression, his piercing gaze fixed on Claudia. It was a Saturday, and he was home when his mother-in-law unexpectedly called, insisting on checking up on them. Oddly, she’d first asked if Kaira was around, which immediately raised his suspicions. The lawsuit was only two days away, and he couldn’t shake the feeling that Claudia was here to convince him to drop it. “Oh, please, no need to be so formal, Sebastian. We’re family, aren’t we?” she replied with a chirpy tone, settling onto the couch as though she owned the place. Sebastian offered her a faint, sarcastic smile. “Yes, of course we are. What can I offer you?” he asked politely, standing in front of her like a sentinel. “Juice, preferably,” she answered, her eyes darting around the room like a thief surveying a target. She was clearly verifying his earlier claim that Kaira wasn’t home. And she wasn’t—Kaira had gone shopping with Nora after being persistently

    Claudia returned from Sebastian’s home, her heart pounding with the weight of her actions. She prayed silently that neither Mathias nor Evelyn would uncover her schemes. Entering the house cautiously, she attempted to slip into her room unnoticed but froze when she found Evelyn standing in front of her door.“Why are you sneaking around, Mother? What have you done this time?” Evelyn asked, arms crossed. Her mind was already preoccupied with solving the problem surrounding Julian, and the last thing she needed was another complication.Claudia feigned irritation, masking her fear. “What?! Why would you assume I’ve done anything wrong, Evelyn?”Evelyn smiled knowingly, she could tell her mother was lying. Years of scheming with her mother had made her an expert in recognizing Claudia’s lies. “I don’t know, Mother. Why don’t you enlighten me?” Evelyn pressed, her tone serious.Claudia gulped but quickly masked her nervousness with indignation. “You have no right to interrogate me like th

    Julian showed up in court, just as Sebastian had planned. Mathias hadn’t responded, proving he was too greedy to let go of the contract. But Mathias had no idea he was walking right into Sebastian’s trap. Sebastian handed Julian a bill for $20 million—a ridiculous amount meant to force the Blackwoods, desperate to avoid scandal, to pay. The case had turned public opinion in Kaira’s favor, and the media now saw her as the true victim. People even dug up Julian’s past, uncovering his relationship with Kaira, his later marriage to Evelyn, and how the family had ignored Kaira for years.“Please, Kaira, lower the bill,” Mathias begged over the phone. He had already asked her to drop the case, but she refused.“I won’t, Mr. Blackwood,” Kaira replied firmly. “I’ve told you what I need. Pay up, or I’ll make sure Julian goes to jail. I doubt you’d want that, would you?” Her tone was sharp, full of satisfaction. She remembered begging them for basic needs once, and they never listened.“Why are

    "I've got a surprise for you," Sebastian murmured, a small smile tugging at his lips as his fingers played lazily with Kaira’s hair. They were lying on the bed, Kaira straddling his thigh, the intimacy of their conversation weaving through the quiet of the room.Kaira’s lips curved into a playful smile as she turned to face him. "You really need to stop spoiling me, Seb." Her tone was teasing, but the flicker of curiosity in her eyes betrayed her interest."And if I stop, who else would take care of my princess?" he replied, his voice warm and rhetorical.She chuckled softly before asking, "So, what’s this surprise, baby?" Her excitement was clear, her gaze bright with anticipation.Sebastian smirked knowingly. "You’ll see tomorrow.""Sebastian!" she exclaimed in mock annoyance, her hand lightly slapping his chest. "Why tell me you have a surprise if you don’t plan to show me right now?" A small pout formed on her lips as she glared at him.He chuckled, enjoying her playful frustratio

    “Don’t open your eyes until I tell you to, princess,” Sebastian ordered as he freed his hands from Kaira’s eyes.“Alright, boss,” she responded sarcastically, smiling as she anticipated the surprise. She was blindfolded, and Sebastian had driven them from the house to a secret location. He had covered her eyes with his hands when they got out of the car, claiming she might see through the blindfold.Sebastian backed away, standing in front of her with a key in his hand. He pulled it from his suit pocket and jiggled it in front of her. “You may open your eyes now,” he whispered.“I’m blindfolded, remember?” she said with a laugh. He chuckled as he moved to remove the thin cloth covering her eyes.Kaira adjusted to the light, blinking after having her eyes shut for so long. The first thing she noticed was the key he held up close to her face, gleaming under the sunlight. Her expression turned to confusion and curiosity as she took the key from him.“What is this for, Seb?” she asked, ar

I’m the Director of Blackwood company.” Julian’s voice echoed around the hall, different broadcasting stations were present, wanting to get the first hand information.The press conference the Blackwood family had discussed was held today with the family press watching him intently while nodding their head in approval in what he had just said. “There’s been alot of chaos because of what happened the past week, putting the Blackwood company in a tight spot and I sincerely apologize for that.” He continued looking at Evelyn as they both shared a smile for a brief moment having rehearsed his words before looking back at the camera. “Firstly, I will love to address the scandal that broke out between I, and my sister in law, Kaira Blackwood. Yes it is true I did everything that was said about me and I sincerely apologize for it. Honestly I was under the influence of alcohol that night because our team had a party that d

    “Happy birthday, Nora.” Sebastian said with a smile with a banquet of flowers in his hands. “Thank you, Seb.” She responded accepting the flowers. “Happy birthday, bestie.” Kaira quipped, pecking her cheeks. Nora smiled pulling her into a hug. The dinner began once they were settled into their seats. “You’re getting old.” Elijah teased, twirling his fork in his hand. “We are same age, Elijah.” She shot back, ruffling his head like a child. “Now we’re same age, I thought you were always older than I am.” He said mockingly and she shot him an irritated glare. “Enough bickering already.” Caleb scolded, shaking his head in slight amusement. “He started it, Uncle.” Nora defended with a pout, adjusting her chair. They were having their usual family dinner which held each month and it had happened to fall on Nora’s birthday. “But he’s right, Nora. You’re getting old.” Sebastian teased. “I’m still younger than you are, mister.” She defended, puffing her chest high as thou

    Kaira sat in front of the glass with Sebastian standing beside her. The security guard brought Mathias in from the prison doors. “What are you doing here?” He asked in irritation, crossing his arms as he sat on the chair. “You had the opportunity to reject the visit, yet you didn’t.” She retorted with a straight face. She had recovered from the injuries she sustained that was why she was able to visit her father. He was sentenced for murder after under going trial with the evidence they had provided the court with. However Claudia was released due to lack of evidence against her. “Did you ever regret it?” She questioned, studying his features. “Regret what?” He asked feigning ignorance. “Did you ever regret killing my parents?” Sebastian interrupted before Kaira respond. “Kill your parents? I don’t know what you’re talking about.” Mathias brows furrowed in confusion. “Ohh, but you do, Mr Blackwood.” He responded blankly, “It wasn’t Kaira’s mother you killed that

    Evelyn shuffled through the drawer, hissing in anger when she found nothing—She was out of cash. It has been ten days since she fled in panic after nearly killing Kaira. Ten days of searching for her endlessly. She was laying low in a small motel because she knew the cops were after her. Her parents had been arrested and she was declared wanted. Thankfully, the motel manager didn’t recognize her as the same person trending on news and she was extra careful not to be caught. Evelyn had resulted to pickpocketing to stay alive and yes she hated her current condition, but she couldn’t do much about it. She needed to stay alive. She reached for her phone, scrolling through her contact and pausing at Julian’s name. She bite her lips, contemplating if to call or not. He was the only one who could help her right now, after all they were in same side. Without much thinking, she dialed the line, tapping her feet as she waited patient for him to pick the call. “Evelyn?” Hi

    “Can you hear me, Kaira?” Sebastian voice echoed in Kaira’s subconscious.“Sebastian?”She responded in a low tone, trying to open her heavy eyes. “Yes it’s me, princess. Can you see me?” He asked softly, and she felt a hand on her face. She could only see a blur vision of him because her eyes weren’t completely opened. She tried harder, slowly adjusting her eyes to the light in the hospital. She tried to arch her neck, but she couldn’t. It was broken. “Don’t try to hard, princess.” Sebastian said softly, his face coming to her vision. “Sebastian.” She cried out, with a smile on her face. A smile of relief. “Yes, princess. I’m here.” He assured, holding her hand and sitting at the edge of the bed. “My whole body hurts, Sebastian.” She confessed, her voice cracking. “You’ll be fine, princess.” He gave charming smile, kissing her forehead lightly. Her eyes widened as realization hit her. “Our baby.” She said in panic trying to feel her baby bump, but Sebastian held her hands tig

    “So the buyer is coming today to see the house.” Mathias announced in a light tone. Evelyn and Claudia’s hummed in response, the sadness on their faces was clear. It still felt surreal that they had really crumbled to that level, and worst to the point of even selling their house to get extra cash.“You are both quiet.” He said, sitting on the couch. “What do you expect me to say, Mathias?” Claudia spat in a harsh tone, “Am I supposed to be happy with the way things are going with us now?” If Mathias were to hold grudges against them for how the treated him when he was in jail,then he would have thrown them out. But he considered them his family which is why he let it go.“We aren’t as broke as you make us out to be, Claudia.” Mathias tried to convince himself than her. “Really, Mathias? We had cars in this house, but what happened to them huh?” She questioned sarcastically. “We sold everything.” Evelyn responded in a gloomy tone. “Exactly, Mathias. We sold everything to clear u

    “I want to buy the house.” Kaira declared, after Julian had informed her about Mathias putting up their house on sale. “What?” Sebastian and Julian said in unison, their voices loud from shock.“I said I want to buy the house from them, and the company of course.” She repeated, with a knowing look. “Why could you want to buy their house, princess?” Sebastian quipped, pursing his lips in confusion. “It’s my mother’s house.” She corrected, her eyes darkening, “It’s only fair I take back everything the owe me, right?” “I don’t know, but buying the building seems a little rash…” Julian trailed off when Sebastian shoot him a cold stare.“What are you still doing here, Mr Stone?” He asked in annoyance. Julian sealed his lips, instantly standing up to his feet. What he had understood with Sebastian after working with him for a short while was that he’s calm was only reserved for Kaira. “I’ll be leaving now.” He announced, and they both gave him a subtle nod. He forced a smile on his fac

    “What are you doing here?” Claudia’s tone came off harsh, as she stared at Mathias in front of the door. They had laid off staffs because they couldn’t afford such luxury anymore. “This is my house, Claudia.” He snapped, pushing her out of the way, and walking into the house. He was released today, after his lawyer had managed to come up with the money. “When were you released?” She asked in near anger, shutting the doors and following him. “So you did know I was arrested, yet you didn’t bother to coming?” Mathias snarled. Originally he believed they weren’t aware, but it was almost impossible when the news of his arrest was everywhere, yet he forced himself to believe otherwise. “Of what use was it?” Claudia spat out, no longer hiding her emotions. “You’re back, father.” Evelyn beamed, walking into the living room. Mathias sent her a cold stare raising his hand up as she tried to embrace him. “Don’t you dare father me, Evelyn.” She swallowed, flinching away from him. She had n

    “It’s been rather peaceful with Mathias in jail.” Kaira remarked with a soft chuckle. “Hasn’t it always been, princess?” Sebastian teased, glancing at her as he massaged her feet.“I feel happy seeing his face on every broadcasting channel I switchto.” She continued, ignoring his teasing. “He’s probably thinking of ways to bail himself out of jail.” Sebastian drawled with a smirk, “He doesn’t know it’s just the beginning.” He chuckled mockingly. “With his ‘precious family’ abandoning him, I doubt he would get himself out.” Kaira said thoughtfully.“Don’t underestimate Mathias, princess. He’ll do everything in his power to get out of there.” Sebastian countered with a dark expression.“Good thing we have other means of putting him in prison.” She quipped, and they both chuckled. “It wouldn’t be too early to celebrate right, Seb?” Kaira’s eyes glinted. “You’re not supposed to be drinking, princess.” Sebastian reprimanded, setting her legs down gently as he to sank on the space clo

It was the headline news on every broadcasting channel, and whispers of it were around the crowd with multiple opinions regarding the arrest.“How did your father allow himself to get arrested?” Claudia snapped with anger written on her face as watched the news.“Do you think that’s the most important at the moment, mother?” Evelyn shoot back, fumbling with her. “What is more important then, Evelyn?
