CamilaI stood there frozen, my mind spinning as I stared at my mother. I didn't know what to say. Words got tangled up in my throat, and I was left speechless. I glanced down at the underwear in her hands, a simple pair, nothing like the special ones Ronan had given me."Ma… those are just underwear," I mumbled, my voice barely above a whisper.But she didn’t let it go. Her hands trembled, her voice breaking as she spoke again. “I am not a fool, Camila. Master Ronan wouldn’t buy you lace and silk underwear unless… unless there was something between you two." Her words felt like a dagger twisting in my chest, and I saw the hurt in her eyes. The last thing I ever wanted was to hurt her, but how could I tell her the truth? How could I make her understand without breaking her heart?"Ma, please…" I begged, my voice so small, feeling trapped between my loyalty to her and the secrets I couldn’t bear to share.She shook her head, refusing to look away. "I’ve seen how he looks at you. And I’

CamilaI watched as she sighed, gathering herself to share something I could tell was buried deep in her heart, something that hurt her even now."Your father," she continued, her eyes distant as if she was seeing a different time, "he loved me deeply. I was his world. I was young, innocent—his beautiful wife that he could show off to others. So when the takeover happened, when our world crumbled, you’d expect him to protect us, to get us to safety, wouldn’t you?"I nodded, feeling a knot tighten in my chest, sensing where this story was going."But he didn’t," she said, her voice faltering, as if each word brought her closer to a pain she’d hidden for years."He wasn’t home when they came for me. I believe he knew something was going to happen and left without me. I was pregnant with you, and maybe I would have slowed him down." Her hands trembled as she spoke, and her gaze dropped to the floor."I never told you this because I didn’t want you to hate him. Especially knowing he might

CamilaMy mother’s eyes filled with tears, and her voice broke as she spoke, “Master Sergey… Madame Melania…” She didn’t finish the sentence, but I could hear the terror in her voice. The fear in her eyes was undeniable, and it was like she was looking at me and seeing her own past play out again, in a different form.“Camila…” she whispered, as if saying my name would somehow protect me from what was to come.“They won’t know, Ma. At least not yet. Ronan… he has it under control,” I tried to reassure her, though I could see that my words were barely reaching her. She shook her head, her face pale with dread.“He’s missing, Camila. Missing. What if you… what if you get pregnant?” she asked, her voice rising in panic. Her fear was not just for me, but for what my future could hold—the risks, the consequences that could come crashing down if things went wrong.I felt my heart clench at the thought. But I had made my choice, and I couldn’t turn back now. I held my head high, even though e

CamilaTwo more days had passed, and the silence was suffocating. We hadn’t heard any news, and the waiting gnawed at me, a constant ache in my chest. During dinner, General Sergey finally spoke, breaking the tense quiet that had hung over the house. I felt a surge of relief—at least we would get some information.He asked Mirabel to excuse herself, which felt odd, but I didn’t question it. What really surprised me was when my mother, who had been about to leave as well, was asked to stay.“You can remain, Glenda,” General Sergey said, his voice steady but with a rare note of respect. “You have proven your loyalty time and again.”“Thank you, Master,” she responded, her voice humble as she stood by the wall, where she had always positioned herself during these dinners.It was strange, almost awkward, seeing her stand there while I sat at the table, eating alongside the Morosovs. But she didn’t seem uncomfortable. In fact, there was a quiet pride in her eyes as she watched me, as if se

Camila I wanted to talk to my mother about the bunker, to get her opinion, but deep down, I knew she would discourage me. She was always cautious, always thinking ten steps ahead, and she would surely tell me to stay silent. But I couldn’t shake the feeling that this might be our only chance, so I did something reckless—something I might end up regretting. With Katya still in my arms, I made my way to the study. As I approached, I heard voices inside—raised, emotional. It was General Sergey and Madam Melania. I hesitated, but their argument was too heated to ignore. “How was I supposed to know, Sergey?" Madam Melania’s voice cracked with frustration, and I could hear the sound of her sobbing. "We’ve been friends since childhood…” “I hate to say this, Melania, but Ronan being missing might be a blessing in disguise. Do you even understand how close he could be to being implicated in all of this? Why didn’t you cut ties with them sooner? Your son has better judgment than you! And now

RonanBelieving you're safe in a country that wasn’t your own is one of the biggest mistakes you can make. It’s a false sense of security that can shatter in an instant. We thought we were untouchable, Joseph and I, because we were in Kavistan for official reasons. We believed that our status would protect us—that no one would dare to harm us, as it would be seen as an act of war. But we were so, so wrong.That afternoon, everything changed. We had just stepped outside the cafe to make a few quick calls. The sun was beating down, and the street seemed calm, like any other day. Then, out of nowhere, a black van pulled up. It was one of those moments that doesn’t feel real, like you’re watching a movie unfold but can’t hit pause.The doors of the van slid open, and men in dark clothes started pouring out, their faces hard, their eyes focused. And then I saw it—the guns in their hands.They were shouting, and in the chaos, it was hard to make out the words. My mind was racing."This can’t

RonanI kept my mouth shut. The last thing I wanted was to get into any sort of conversation with Arya in front of our captors. It wasn’t the time or place. Everything we said, every move we made, would be watched, and analyzed.Hopefully, this was just some rogue group, and the Kavistani government had no stake in it. If we were lucky, they would have already noticed our disappearance and were working to get us out. I couldn’t let this situation escalate into an international crisis, something that would drag Jorvik into a political mess. It needed to stay under the radar.The ride dragged on, long and suffocating in its silence. The only sound was the hum of the engine and the occasional rustle as one of the men shifted in his seat. None of them spoke, but their eyes were always on us, cold and calculating.Their accents were clearly Kavistani, but I noticed something else—some of them were blond. That wasn’t common in this part of the world. These men were either Belvarian or a mix

RonanTwo days later, they brought Arya back and placed her in the cell directly across from ours. She looked like a ghost of herself—still wearing the same grey jumpsuit as us, her bruises now covered with small bandaids. Her face was pale, her eyes wide and fearful, as if the world had crushed whatever strength she had left. It was hard to tell if she was truly broken or if this was just another one of her acts.Arya was always an enigma. Part of me wanted to believe she wasn’t involved, that she was just another victim like us, but with Arya, you could never be sure.The silence that followed was suffocating. For two days straight, there was nothing but the ticking of the digital clock on the desk in our cell. I counted the seconds, minutes, hours—anything to keep a grip on reality.It felt like we were being forgotten, locked away in some remote prison while the world outside continued, oblivious to what was happening to us. They brought our meals at regular intervals, slipping tra

RonanThe rest of the day unfolded like a dream. The blending of cultures at the reception created an electric atmosphere, with traditional music, dancing, and customs from both Jorvik and Belvaria.People laughed, cheered, and toasted together, the joy in the air bringing everyone closer in a way I hadn’t seen before.The food was exquisite—lavish dishes from both sides, served alongside sweets that melted in your mouth. I glanced around, noticing a few of the usual snobbish Jorvikians clinging to old prejudices, but their aloofness felt like a remnant of a fading past. The world was changing, and today was proof that we were moving forward.As the day finally wound down, my heart quickened, knowing I’d soon take Camila home with me for the first time as my wife.My mother’s eyes were misty with tears as we prepared to leave. I knew the real reason she was so sentimental had little to do with the wedding itself.She’d gotten used to Camila and Glenda living at home, filling her table
Trained Not To Love You 249 Camila’s Vows
RonanThese words were my truth, my heart’s deepest promises, and I meant to honour them, no matter what life might bring our way.The hall was filled with the soft sounds of sniffles and quiet sighs; I could feel the weight of emotion in the air. But in that moment, I was aware only of Camila. My vow, my promises, were for her and her alone.Camila took a deep breath, gathering her thoughts, and I could see the shy nerves flickering in her expression. She hesitated just a moment, and then began, her voice steady but filled with emotion.“Ronan,” she said softly, her voice warming as she spoke, “words can’t fully capture what I feel, but I’ll do my best.” A gentle chuckle rippled through the crowd, lightening the moment, and she smiled at me with a look that made my heart race.“You made me feel at home when I didn’t have a home,” she continued, her voice thick with sincerity. “Because of you, I’ve known joy, dignity, and freedom—even though society didn’t think I was worthy of those

RonanThe music began softly, and I stood at full attention, my heart pounding as I focused on the door where Camila would soon appear.I felt a mix of nerves and anticipation I hadn’t expected, my eyes lingering on that entrance, hoping each passing second would bring her closer. But first came the bridesmaids, one by one, entering gracefully.Olivia led the way, her figure heavily pregnant but glowing, followed by Stephanie, Ashley, and two Belvarian women who looked like relatives of Camila. Though I hadn’t met them before, their familial resemblance to Camila was subtle—a trace here, a gesture there.Then, my little Katya appeared, a tiny vision holding a small basket of flowers. My heart melted as she toddled down the aisle, her big eyes wide with wonder. For a one-year-old, she was doing exceptionally well, capturing the hearts of everyone as she made her way forward.But then, as her gaze found mine, she lit up and shouted, “Dada!” I couldn’t help but laugh, joy filling me as s
Trained Not To Love You 247 The Day Was Finally Here
RonanThe day I had dreamed of for so long had finally arrived—my wedding day. As tradition demanded, I couldn’t spend the night with my bride, so I stayed at my house with Marc, Joseph, Erin and Ashton. Lying awake that morning, memories flooded my mind, filling me with emotions I hadn’t felt in a long time. I remembered a different night, a night that haunted me and almost changed everything.That time, I’d been betrayed, drugged, and left in a haze by people I’d thought I could trust—people like Abel and Mira, whose influence had threatened to destroy my happiness. But not this time. This time, it was just my brother my soon-to-be-in-law and my true friends and me, laughing and drinking, reliving those simpler days with nothing sinister lurking around the corner.For the first time, I felt completely in control, safe. I was grateful for that disastrous night from the past, because without it, I would never have crossed paths with Camila. Everything I’d been through, all the pain an
Trained Not To Love You 246 Two Days To The Wedding
CamilaTwo days before the wedding, Erin arrived with a heavily pregnant Olivia. I couldn't help but wonder how she managed to fly so far along in her pregnancy.Apparently, they had used a private jet, which explained the quick journey. My father had flown them all into Jorvik, bringing along his family, two lively ladies named Trisha and Lily, whom he said were our distant relatives. Along with them were Olivia’s friends, Stephanie and Ashely, who couldn't stop gushing about their excitement to see Marc and Joseph again. Clearly, those two men had left quite the impression on them.Olivia was radiant, her happiness infectious. It was clear she was free-spirited, a stark contrast to the life of servitude I had known.I was grateful she had never had to experience that harsh existence. Madam Melania was particularly taken with Olivia, unable to stop admiring her striking red hair and vibrant green eyes.I could see the wheels turning in Madam Melania’s mind as she tried to charm Olivi
Trained Not To Love You 245 Embracing A New Life
CamilaMy father returned to the villa that the head of state had prepared for him and his entourage. The wedding was just two weeks away, and he planned to leave briefly, returning with my family to attend the ceremony. I was excited at the thought of meeting them, especially with how well my mother’s relationship with Dimitri was progressing. Their bond seemed solid, unhindered by the past, and I was genuinely happy for them both.Ronan suggested we return to his house after the celebration, but Madam Melania was determined to keep us there. She pulled out all kinds of tricks to persuade us to stay, even pleading with my mother not to leave.However, Dimitri was firm in his decision to take her to Nerania, where he also planned to buy a house in Jorvik for them to stay. I understood his reasoning; Madam Melania often seemed to forget that we were no longer slaves, and a little distance might help her realise the changes in our lives.She wasn’t malicious, but her subtle reminders—li
Trained Not To Love You 244 Father And Daughter
CamilaAs Erin and Ashton walked in alongside my father, I found myself standing up almost absently, my heart racing. Seeing him in person was a revelation; he looked so much better than he did on the screen.His eyes were soft and warm when they fell on me, as if he had just encountered an angel, and in that moment, I couldn’t believe he was my father. The weight of the moment pressed down on me, filling me with a mix of joy and disbelief.I didn’t want to waste any time; I was determined to avoid any awkwardness between us. With a surge of emotion, I rushed toward him and wrapped my arms around his waist, letting him know that there was no need for words. I felt him pause for just a heartbeat before he slowly wrapped his arms around me in a bear hug, holding on tightly as if he were afraid I might slip away.“My daughter, my daughter,” he said, his voice cracking with emotion. I could feel his pain radiating through his words, hear it tremble in the air between us. This moment was a
Trained Not To Love You 243 Nervous
CamilaI was a bundle of nerves after the signing ceremony. My heart raced, each thump echoing in my ears like a drum. I knew Fredrick wouldn't waste any time seeking me out. Erin had mentioned how impatient he had been throughout the event, his excitement barely contained.As I thought about the man I was about to meet, I felt my stomach twist into knots. My mother appeared calm and composed, but I was anything but. Fredrick was my father, a man I had never seen before, someone I hadn’t even known existed until now. The realisation weighed heavily on me. This was all so overwhelming, yet I understood it was something I had to confront.Once the signing ceremony ended, I slipped out of the living room and headed up to Ronan's room. I needed a moment to gather my thoughts and calm my racing heart. I wasn't sure how I would react when I finally met Fredrick face-to-face or what I might say to him. I had only spoken to him once over the phone, which felt like a distant memory now. That w
Trained Not To Love You 242 The Signing
RonanAs we celebrated, Ashton turned to Erin with a look of quiet amazement. “When my uncle told me the only way to achieve this was by working honestly with the Jorvikians, I didn’t believe him,” he admitted. “But I guess he was right all along.” Erin nodded, sharing the same sense of disbelief mixed with newfound hope. It truly felt like the dawn of a new era, and I was grateful beyond words to witness it, let alone be part of it.Just as we were toasting to freedom and the future, my father’s phone rang. He listened quietly, then looked over at me, his expression softening. “Gregory has agreed to waive the death penalty in exchange for Lucas’s cooperation. He’ll be dismissed from the military and serve three years in prison. After that, he’ll be a free man. This is the best deal we could secure for him.”I nodded, a feeling of respect and relief swelling up as I met my father’s gaze. “Thank you, Father,” I said, my voice low but sincere. He returned a small smile, nodding back. Al
