She burst into sobs upon saying that. I gasped and acted fake surprised even if I already knew, "Oh my Candice.." I hugged her as she began to cry. I rubbed her back as she began to say, "My father's respect will be shattered, no one will marry me, a stain will appear on my name. Sophie, can you think, Candice, a girl who was left unmarried at the altar." She continued to cry as I tentatively asked, "What are you supposed to do now?" "I don't know. I definitely won't marry him. But if not, then what about those hundred guests that are ready to spread rumors?" She cried loudly. I tried to console her but to no avail. She felt heartbroken, I couldn't even imagine what she was feeling, a feeling of betrayal on the very day of your marriage, it must be a ravaging feeling. "Candice.. calm down.. we'll sort something out." I tried to assure her but she asked, "How are you supposed to do it?" I felt my heart heavy looking at her like this. None of us spoke a word as the sound of h
"It's okay Candice, give yourself some time." I tried to assure Candice who completely changed after her marriage. It's been months of her marriage and her personality changed like she turned into a timid person rather than her usual sassy self. It feels like her facade has been broken and she can't hide herself from me or Tyler anymore. She was somehow afraid and intimidated, did Tyler treat her well? "It's so hard Sophie. All this luxury life.. I can't bear it. I'm scared." She whispered as if she was on the verge of crying. She was scared of this? Of being called the wife of the King of Shipments? Her status... "Why? What happened? Did Tyler do something?" I asked, concerned. "No! I'm.. it's.. Sophie?" She said nervously. "What is it? You can tell me" az\q2"Can we meet? Can you come to my place?" She asked, her voice sounds scared and desperate. I felt like something bad was going to happen. "Yeah.. Sure. I'll ask Christian to drop me at your place tomorrow." I said re
Today is our anniversary and I am six months pregnant now. I am feeling so happy like all the heavens are on my side. My heart is filled with content, I felt butterflies in my stomach and I felt like beaming in blithe. No words can explain my exhilaration. I felt like glowing, nothing in this world can make me this much happier. The cheerfulness anticipated by the fact that we have lived a whole year together is filling me with elation. The start was so difficult as the thorns in our path hurt both of us a lot but now, the way he sucked out that recurring venom is admirable as the rest of the months were passed in enlivened situations and vivid colors that are shining in our future too. It feels like nothing can go wrong. I woke up as I stretched and sat up. I yawned and turned my head and saw no one. As I was sitting on the bed to drag myself out from the feeling of drowsiness, the door opened revealing my light of hope. He smiled widely when he entered. He came close to me,
Christian POV:- I grit my teeth in anger. Why today of all days? Merlin will surely pay for it. I know that they can't arrest me because I have already turned each penny I earned righteous. No matter how they search for it, they can't find any proof against me. But, I am infuriated at the fact that once again, the day Sophie was looking forward to was ruined. I think Merlin is taking revenge for the rumor I spread; She is having a child with a client of hers. I get it, that gossip destroyed her whole career as her name is stained. If she did it on some random day, I would find it amusing but right now, she is making the fire inside me more fiery. Why does she have to make the matters worse?
"Father used to beat mother and I sat in the corner of the dark room, hearing those loud cries, feeling scared. I wanted to take my mother away. So, I.. joined the underworld at the age of 17.” Pausing, I glanced at her. “But, a year after it, my father died and we began to face money problems, to escape our desperation for money, I.. I involved myself more in it and for the sake of money, I did illegal things too and we moved to New York but..” Please don’t hate me. Please don’t hate me. “When I found out that you guys also came, I was so surprised, I thought that I left you behind and we can never meet again as you can live a normal life again, without even knowing about my existence but I was wrong.” Gulping hard, I mentally prepared myself for it.
Sophie POV:- I grinned as tears flowed from my eyes without any halt, they are not the tears of sadness but rather, the immense happiness I am receiving holding my twins. A profound feeling of being blessed filled me. I just couldn't hold my content as it flowed from my eyes in the form of tears. My salvation, my children. My smile is not leaving me as my eyes are fixed upon the little lives in my hands. It’s an immeasurable pleasure for me to have such beautiful babies. My butterflies. My exhilaration is beyond any words, my heart flutters in joy. The happiness given to me is beyond anyone's comprehension. I can feel how delicate they are. And such tenderness that I can't even explain. They are fragile and I shall protect them from all the abhorrence.
6 Months Later:- I walked down the stairs looking for Aletha and Christopher and saw them playing with their father. Aletha has learned to crawl but Christopher grew a tooth! She looked so cute when she crawled and he looked so adorable when he laughed. God, I love them so much!I just can't explain my happiness. They are my reason to live, all three of them. My light, my love, my heartbeat, my life. I saw them as a smile crept upon my lips when I saw Christian playing with them. He shot his head up and smiled, "Good Morning, Love." I smiled back as I yawned and sat beside him holding Aletha and kissing her forehead. "How did you sleep?" he asked. I put her down and then picked C
"Open them." He ordered in his deep commanding voice that finally made me bend my knees in defeat against the dominating presence before me. His grip tightened as I felt his nails digging into my skin as another moan escape my lips in pleasure because of these cherished sensations, "P-Please C-Christian.." I couldn't oppose the urge to have him anymore as I spread my legs apart a little. I swallowed hard and called him again, "Christian.." He again lifted his gaze. The way his gaze slowly made its way to me is causing a disruption in my mind. Wrecking a havoc of needs for him but I want to control myself. He then noticed that slight distress in me as his grip loosen. He leaned in close to my face as his
