Krysie woke up without Elias in her sight. The mere thought of it makes her smile bitterly. She can't understand herself why she's feeling this. Everything must be over. It's all in the past now. She massaged her temple and decided to take a cold shower. His scent is still lingering at the corners of the room. She just hope it'll vanish through the humidifier and air condition before her babies could return. Krysie changed into a comfy outfit and pursed her lips when she remembered something. She wasn't able to ask Elias about how ended up here. Then the thought of her being caught red-handed by Elias or Hunter inside this condo with her babies popped up inside her head. Damn, what was I thinking? She won't let that happen. Four years of hiding would be gone for good if she'll make one wrong move. Maybe it's a good thing that she left her babies in the mansion last night.Krysie stares at herself in front of the mirror and frowned. She tilted her head to the right and touched her n
“WHERE HAVE you been?” Hunter asked the moment he stepped inside the manor.He smirked. “Heaven.” Elias woke up early so he could leave. But of course, leaving without giving her remembrance doesn't sound so thrilling. So he put kiss marks on her neck and below her breast. He's imagining what would be her reaction at the moment she'll wake up.“Your jet left the last day and now you're returning home with a fucking smirk on your face. What's going on?” Carson asked. Hunter glared at him. “And you even permitted her to have left without telling us.” Elias roamed his eyes around the house. The house that they built for them…for her. It has her pictures hanging on the wall and her favorite arrangements all over the house. She's the only missing piece to complete the puzzle of this mansion. “I found a better plan to have her back,” he said. “but that doesn't mean it's fucking easy. My brat is cold right now.” “So you're with her?” Hunter raised his brow. He walked towards the couch
She was up all night. That freaking letter didn't let her sleep. She's just staring over the horizon while holding the envelope. Morning arrives and she is forced to move her ass to make breakfast for her babies. Even if she's not in the mood to move, she has to. She also needs to ask Noah about the invitation card he left last night on the center table. She checks the time on her wristwatch and heaved a deep breath. Krysie went to the kitchen and started doing her job. Maybe he can enlighten her. Maybe there's an explanation behind such events she's not aware of. She made a breakfast wrap, scrambled eggs, and bacon. She also prepared their milk and cereals, Haven's favorite. It took her an hour to cook everything, including everyone's breakfast. “You're early, huh.” Krysie turned around and saw Margaux. She smiled, but that didn't reach her eyes. “Hey. How's life?” “Doing great.” Margaux headed towards the fridge and pulled out some milk. “How about you? You're always arguing w
Want 66SHE HUFFED and gripped the railings tightly. Oh, God. I fucking hate this feeling. She looked up at the sky and heaved another deep breath. It's past three in the morning, and she's here. Overthinking her worth and her feelings. If she's enough to be valued or not. Everything feels like a stab in her chest. Hearing someone you love getting married and you're not the bride is heart tearing."Oh, God. What have I done wrong in the past to suffer this?" she whispered while looking at the wide sky. Noah tries to talk to her but she declines. She's done. It's all done. If he really did his best to stop the upcoming wedding, he could have done that long enough before she could know this shit. He could have told her. He could have... damn it. Krysie sniffed and looked down on the pool area where the water is glistening against the light from the corners of the pool. It's windy, the water's unstable. The same goes for her mental and emotional health, too. They're not stable. She c
"It's a long day, kiddos. You can rest. Mommy's going to cook something for you," Krysie said right after she finished putting all her luggage in their room. Haven looked around. "Mommy, is this tyu? Wey in No Yoyk?" That made her chuckle. Aw...it seems like her baby still can't believe they're here in the place where she works. Well, they should be. It's funny how she forbade her kids days ago to come with her and now... they're here. They're in New York. Kaizer was the only person who's there and who wishes them well before they left San Diego. They landed in New York at exactly eleven thirteen in the morning. Kaizer's service car takes them to this house which she thinks is owned by her brother. And yeah, he bought this for us."Are we gonna study here from now on?" Hades asked while sitting on the couch. Krysie nodded her head and winked in her babies' direction. "Yes, sugarplums. You're studying here in New York while Mommy's working." "Yehey!" Haven clapped her hands and t
Krysie bit her lip hard and massaged her temples. She checked the time on her wrist and it's almost six now. She's thinking about leaving everything for tomorrow but that would be death for her. Elias will hunt her down and come to where she lives. And it would be freaking early for them to know about her kids! She inhaled deeply and decided to come over. Elias would be mad if she won't show up. Krysie perfectly knows he's not good when mad. So she has no choice but to show up. Krysie took the quickest bath in history and changed. Simple low waist jeans and hanging blouse made her outfit. She combed her hair and tied it into a low ponytail, leaving some strands of hair near her ears. She also paired her outfit with converse shoes for an easy run.Yeah, it's better to be ready than sorry.Her phone from her sling bag rings. Krysie pulled it out to see who's the caller and silently thanked God it was her brother. “Hello, Kaizer…” “How're the kids? How are you?”She bit her lower li
“Seriously? You could have just accepted Kaizer's offer,” Margaux said from the other line. Krysie took a deep breath and bit her lower lip while looking at the sky. It's already eleven in the evening and she just confessed everything to Margaux. “I don't want him to get involved in my life again,” she whispered. “I can't accept the fact that he also hides everything from me. I'm disappointed.” “Just swallow your pride, Girl. Unless you want to be with them?”That silenced her. She's doesn't. Never in her wildest dreams dreamed to be in the siblings' arms again. But she wants to stop depending on her brother. “You can borrow money from him and pay him off afterward. There's no harm in that, Sey. Just try,” Margaux added. She huffed and looked down at the garden. “Should I?” “You should.” Krysie can imagine her friend nodding her head. She closed her eyes as the cold wind blows. The sound of the crickets is indicating her it's already nighttime. Even the cold breeze that's touch
"Mommy, are you leaving us again?" Hades' blue eyes are looking at her with curiosity.This is way harder than I thought it is.Krysie closed her luggage first before facing her son. Havoc is standing near the door frame while Haven is behind Hades. They're looking at her like she had done something wrong which is really wrong.She requested Elias that she'll fly tomorrow instead of today. She's waiting for Margaux to come over even though she wants to bring her babies with her."Mom won't take long there," she said softly and caressed his cheeks."You've been telling us it won't take you long but you always don't arrive, Mom." Havoc interjected.Krysie massaged her temple. "As much as Mommy wants to bring you there, I'm disallowed to do that."That's a freaking lie! I'm only doing this for you not to encounter your father."It won't take you long, yayt?" Haven asked.She forced a smile and spread her arms. "Care you hug Mommy? I'll buy you something after work."Havoc scoffed and tur
SPECIAL CHAPTER IKrysie groaned for the nth time. Her tummy is heavy and she can't freaking bent down to wear her foot socks. She can't ask for someone to do it for her either because no one's here aside from her. Instead of leaning in further, she rested her back on the couch and bit her lower lip. She then caressed her tummy.“Damn, baby. Mommy's having a hard time,” she mumbled while caressing her tummy.She's already six months pregnant. Unlike her first pregnancy, the doctor says she's only carrying one baby. After their marriage that happened abroad, the siblings changed the triplets' last name and made it Adamson. It's good to know the triplets agreed about it.Hunter is out for a business meeting while Elias is in the hospital. Carson? Well, he's downstairs and making her something to eat. Gladly, they can cook now. They don't have to eat pizza for dinner.The door of the room slammed open and Havoc went in. Krysie smiled and watched her son walk toward her. The older Havoc i
Finale"Could you please, calm the fuck down?" Margaux said to Hunter. Krysie just shook her head. They're in the hospital owned by Elias, waiting for the DNA test result. Hunter keeps pacing back and forth while ruffling his hair. It's been two months since that emotional break she had with Noah. And to be honest, she both feels bad and relieved. Relived that finally, she can express herself freely without worrying that something was stopping her.Kaizer and Margaux visited last month and her brother immediately left for another important hearing while Margaux stayed to visit her parents today. Margaux's still clueless that Maddie is already in their home. Speaking of Maddie, Krysie can see the sincerity in her eyes the moment she thanked her for being good. To sum up everything, everything is good now. Everything's settled and her mom didn't oppose her relationship with the siblings. "Hunter," she called. He looked at her and she smiled. "Calm down." Hunter nodded and stood bes
Want 84“Noah…” She stilled.He turned to her and she saw how tired his eyes is. It was reddish. Krysie can perfectly see the dark circles under his eyes. He looks…restless.“Krysie!” he exclaimed and walked past Elias to hug her. She can't process everything. She can't think. All she knows is Noah hugging her so tightly as if he's afraid to let go. Elias was about to pull him away but she raised her hand, telling him to stop. “I miss you,” he uttered and started sobbing. Noah kissed her hair as he tightened his embrace. “Please, come back to me.” She's speechless. She's grasping for words and it seems like the words are escaping her. Her mind's chaotic at the moment. He pulled away from their hug and he held her shoulders. “Why are you with them, did they blackmail you?” “Knight,” Elias warned. Krysie bit her lower lip hard. She looked at Elias. “You'll go ahead, Elias. Bring my babies home safe.” Noah looked at her. “What—”“I'll stay.” They turned to Hunter when he suddenly
“Untie her!” she exclaimed while looking at Maddison who is now helplessly lying on the floor.Hunter immediately obeyed her. He unbuckles the shackles on Maddie's wrist and ankle. Krysie can't help to rake a stare all over Maddie. She looks so thin. Her bones are damn visible! So all this time, they are caging Maddison inside this scary basement or dungeon? Oh goodness.She immediately attended to Maddie and helped her to sit. Krysie took off her blazer and wrapped it around Maddie's shoulders. She looked at Hunter with a teary eye.“Carry her outside, please? She can't stay here longer,” she softly asked. Hunter clenched his jaw and nodded his head and walked towards Maddie. He carefully scooped the woman in his arms and headed out of the place. Krysie is rooted in her place. Her eyes are roaming all over the dim room. “Why did you guys put her here?” She turned to Carson and Elias and glared at them. “Are you freaking out of your mind?!”Elias tried to reach for her arms but she
Want 82“Do you want anything else?” Her mother asked for the nth time. She can sense her mom's panicking as she keeps on glancing in her baby's direction. The siblings were inside the library, maybe they'll talk about something inside and she's left here with her babies and mother. “Mommy,” she called. “Can you sit for a moment? Uhm, calm down?” Millet released a frustrated breath and sat on the single couch. Havoc, Haven, and Hades are silently sitting on the couch and behaving themselves. “Krysie, am I dreaming? You left when you're eighteen and…” Her mom dramatically covered her mouth using her own hand. “You just came home with…” She heaved a deep breath. Krysie asked the nannies to take care of her babies and asked her mom to come with her to the pool area. She doesn't want her babies to hear their conversation. They might misinterpret everything.“Explain to me, Sweetie. How? How did it happen? Why…why do that kids look like Hunter?” Her mom attacked her with questions aft
“Okay,” Krysie nodded her head. “I…I'll settle things soon as fast I can. I'm sorry…”“You know what, it's good to hear you're finally settling everything. I don't hate you, I just can't tolerate you cheating on Noah. He loves you dearly, Krysie. I know you're aware of that.” Margaux heaved a deep breath. “And I'm sorry for provoking you last day. I thought you broke up with him.”“We had just cooled off,” Krysie responded.“That's what I'm guilty of. That's why I'm here to advise you to finally settle your feelings about who's who. I was so guilty knowing you guys didn't break up. And here I am, provoking you to come back with the siblings. I just know that when Noah called me last night.” Margaux reached for her hand and squeezed. “It was my fault for convincing you not—”“It's fine. I didn't blame you. It's all on me. I let myself succumb to the temptation brought by them and didn't think who will suffer because of my wrongdoings.” Krysie looked at her friend and smiled. “Thank you
Want 80Krysie woke up, purring like a kitten. She slowly opened her eyes and a dim room welcomed her view. She roamed her eyes all over the place and found out she was alone. She looked at the side of the bed and pouted. It's already eight in the morning and nobody cares to wake her up? She pulled herself up and moved her legs when she suddenly felt a pang of pain in between her thighs. She groaned dropped her body into the soft bed once again. The images from last night flashed inside her head. Margaux will scold her and that's for sure. Then suddenly, her mind is thinking about Noah. Something in her felt so regretful for letting her body decide. She was blinded by lust that she totally forgot she was in a relationship with someone!“Oh, God. What have I done?” she asked herself. Instead of sulking and taking all the blame, she pulled herself up to take a shower. She'll deal with everything after finishing a shower. She needs water to freshen up her mind to think about what she

Please be guided.Want 79“Hey.” Krysie turned to look at Carson who had just gone out of the room where the triplets are sleeping. They agreed to stay the night. They enjoyed having fun with the triplets together. She smiled. “Are they asleep?” Carson nodded. Elias and Hunter are following behind him. “Aren't you going to sleep?” “I still don't know where I should sleep,” she muttered. Margaux went out of her room and handed her some nighties. She's not bringing anything for this night over isn't planned. That's why she has to ask some from Margaux so that she can sleep comfortably tonight.“Here,” Margaux said. “And there are only two rooms in this hotel. Krysie, you can sleep in mine. I'll be out tonight for a party and I'll be home at dawn. So please, don't lock the door. I'm sure they won't transfer into your room.” Oh, so she's out tonight? Margaux is
Want 78"You can stay here for a moment," she uttered. "I-I don't want to shock the kids."Hunter just nodded. "Can you walk there?""I can assist you," Carson volunteered.Krysie was hesitant but agreed anyway. Her foot is still healing and it will take her longer to walk without aid from someone.Carson assisted her to step out of the car. She turned to look at Elias and Hunter and both of them are smiling. It's as if telling her that she can do it and they're just right behind her back. And this is not getting good. She's starting to get afraid. It feels like restoring this old connection with them is not good."Are you good?" Carson asked while walking. He let her wrap her left arm on his right arm. "You're spacing out while we're walking."Krysie blinked her eyes only to find out he was right. She smiled tightly and gripped his arm. They continue walking inside the hotel where Margaux is staying. They headed straight to the elevator and waited for the door to open.While waiting,
