The next evening, Scarlett was urgently called back home by her father. So, after her work she directly goes there, thinking about what drama she would be facing next."Oh, Lord." Scar inhaled a sharp breath. "Here it comes." And entered the house.Knowing her father was in the study, she went there directly. After leaving this house she never really bother to visit unless she was called. She never got the homey feeling of this place.However, when she entered the study, she paused on her track with her mouth agape in surprise.Her father was shouting at Camilla!'Oh!' She gasped inwardly. 'What the hell just happened!? He is shouting at his princess! This is too... New!' She pursed her lips. 'Anyways, what is he shouting for?'Concentrating on their words, Scarlett realised it was about the marriage arrangement. As she thought, Camilla tried to drug Rafaelle and annoyed him, which kicked her back with the loss of her candidacy."Oh darling, please calm down." Elie tried to hold her h
Scarlett did not expect Gabrielle at this point in her life. She just had a stupid and nasty argument with her father and now him? No, this is not what she wanted in her life now. She has suffered too much for a day."What do you want?" She asked, a little bit irritated by his sudden presence.Gabrielle arched his brow at her. He specifically did not expect this reaction meeting after days with her.However, he chose to ignore and the corner of his lips twitched slightly. "You..." He answered.And that was the exact reason she didn't want to face this man. Pushing his back from her, she glared at him. "Leave me alone. I am not in the mood to play with you."Her words angered him. But, that also caught his attention when he felt that her voice was broken.Confused, when he looked deep into those dark Hazel eyes, he suddenly noticed the veil of pain there with the trace of dried water on her cheeks.'She... Cried...' That's what his mind could process at that moment. He froze.Scarlett
*Mature Content*'I wish, I knew what parental love is, little bird.'The words of loss changed the situation forthwith. Scarlett, who was crying, hiding in his strong arms, gasped in silence as her tears stopped.She looked up at him to find he was staring at the wall in front, drowned in his own sorrows.She always thought he owned lots of things including a warm family. Never in her dreams, had she realised the deep sorrows he has buried behind his cold and dark veil.Her hands raised to his face and touched his cheeks.When he looked down, their eyes met. Those golden-green eyes have always been blank and cold, but not tonight.For the first time, Scar could see the emptiness in those eyes. For the first time, he didn't hide his feelings and let her watch the scarred soul he was carrying always.The intensity of the ache was too much in them that Scar almost felt she has suffered nothing. They were old, permanent, and still raw.She realised the definition behind his controlling b
*Mature Content*The bathroom door was pushed open and then closed with a loud thud behind them. And the next second Scarlett was dumped on the bed.She gasped at the sudden bounce which instantly turned into a moan when his hot wet lips crushed into hers, ravaging her with an animalistic hunger that was gone out of control.Gabrielle was still in his damp shirt. Widening her legs more to allow him access between her thighs, her hands pressed down to his chest, trying to fight with the buttons to open."Mmmhm." Scar moaned again in his mouth when his hard bulge kneaded on her wetness.Arching her bottom up to get the touch of his hardness, Scar sprawled the shirt in fervency. The buttons scattered on the floor with soft pings, widening the shirt.Her restless hands roamed around his muscled chest. Though they just came out of the shower, he was hot like a warm heater.Her anxiousness earned a deep chuckle from Gabrielle. "Needy girl we are, aren't we?""Please... Gabrielle..." She moa
After her mother's death, Scarlett rarely had a day to remember, and spending time with Gabrielle has given her one.Though a part of her was missing the man a little bit, she was so happy and gloating in joy.It's eight at night and Scar decided to watch a movie alone with her ragdoll cats to pass her time.Generally, she would have called for Saffron but she was out of the city for her own work, and other than that she didn't have any cozy friend to call for other than these two cats, Storm, and Rain.But, when she opened the fridge to have some snacks, she realised she was out of it. To gain proper entertainment from the movie, she decided to go out and buy some snacks. And she did.When she was returning home from the shop, almost entering her apartment, a shadow appeared all of a sudden, blocking her way.Startled, Scarlett paused on the track only to gasp seeing the person. "Dad!?" She was both confused and annoyed by his presence.After what he did last night was so disgusting
'Be free tomorrow morning. I will take you somewhere. (Work related)' 'Okay, I will. Thank you :-D' She typed the text back. Reading the text, Scarlett kept the phone in her pocket and looked at the black box. But, right now, her mind was stuck on something else. "Why did he warn me to stay away from the legendary perfume?" She mumbled to herself. ******************* The next morning, Rafaelle picked her up from her home. After conveying their greetings, Scar asked, "where are we going?" "Any guess?" Rafaelle arched his brow, making her frown. "You said it's work. So, I am guessing it's about the perfume." She said, Rafaelle chuckled. "Yeah, I am taking you to visit a private perfume museum. I hope it may help you with your job." Nodding, Scarlett smiled at him. "Yeah, it will do. Thank you, Rafaelle. You are helping me so much with this. I really don't know how to pay you back." Rafaelle watched her for a moment and then leaned a little to her side. "I will take it back whe
'I need a fiancée.'The words made her chocked on her breath and she stared at him in disbelief. "Wh... What?!"Scar considered him a friend and trusted him so quickly which backfired on her own decision.She blinked, looking away from him, "Rafaelle... I..." She was at a loss for words at his sudden and irrational demand.Just as suddenly as he asserted his words, he started laughing in the next second, making her more confused by his behaviour.Terrified, Scar looked at him, when Rafaelle somehow stopped laughing, clutching onto his stomach."God, Scarlett! You should see your face!" He chuckled once again, "You were so scared. Relax, you don't have to. I was just joking, I promise."At that moment, Scarlett felt her heart gain its life. She glared at him. "You shouldn't joke like this! You scared me, Rafaelle Edwards!" She was annoyed.He quickly raised his hands in a surrender position. "I am sorry, it will never happen again." He tried to coax her anger out.His assuring words gr
After arriving home with an excited heart, Scar quickly made some preparation for the next day's presentation of the legendary perfume, according to the experiences she got these days.Organising the presentation file, Scar then concentrated on some ideas which she could use to make the perfume for Rafaelle.Scarlett was very incited to make the first ever perfume of her life, that also for a big personality like Rafaelle Edwards. This is a once in a lifetime chance she got for herself.Scar was very careful while chasing the ideas because this perfume also could earn her the chance to be useful in Rafaelle's eyes.And if he is willing to help her, then there might be other chances for her to get the field, her father has demanded. In that way, she wouldn't have to marry Rafaelle or lost her mother's relic."Yes, Scarlett. You have to do this. You can not be failed in this." She encouraged herself.After she was all set for the next day, Scar went to bed, recalling her good day and th
Five months later...Scarlett watched her in the mirror, looking like Goddess in her glittery red slit dress and glowing with her six months old pregnant belly.And Soon she was hugged from behind with a pair of possessive and most protective arms. Her husband.Yes, they got married after a month of the reunion with her father. Since that day, nothing went wrong in their life. Only positivity and love spread.In that month, not only Scar got close to her father and got married, but Gabrielle and Rafaelle also reunited with their families. Both grandfather's asked their forgiveness of their grandchild for doing injustice to them and their parents once again got back together.Though Gabrielle couldn't get back his memories, with the patience and help of Scarlett, he could recall some glimpses of his past. But, he didn't mind it anymore as everything is going so well and he did not want to ruin it for himself or his family.Both Ryan and Gianna regretted their mistakes and decided to le
Scarlett felt a little nervous meeting her father. She didn't know how he would react.She felt a soft and assuring touch on her back. It's Gabrielle. "Hey, it's alright. Go inside." He whispered in her ear.Inhaling a sharp breath, Scar knocked on the door and stepped inside.Immediately, her feet froze, watching a sickly man, lying on the bed. She couldn't believe those features were her father's.He opened his eyes watching her. At first, he didn't react. Then slowly raising his hand, he gestured for her to go in front.Scar felt like her feet has frozen and she couldn't move, until it was Gabrielle, dragging her almost.Connor watched Gabrielle with a little bit of shock, lingering in his eyes. He tried to sit up when Scar helped him."Whe...n you..." He asked, confused.Scar shook her head. "He is Gabrielle Wolfe. Rafaelle's twin brother and... And my fiancée...""Hello, sir. Nice meeting you." Gabrielle nodded at him with courtesy and politeness."Gabrielle!" Connor seemed to be
"MAMA!" Scar's eyes wide opened with a scream. She wanted to sit up but a harsh pain all over her body made her groan as she once again was forced to bed."Baby, what happened!?" Gabrielle's panicked voice came from beside her. His eyes just closed in tiredness when he was jerked out with a panicked scream.When he opened his eyes, it was Scarlett, trying to jump off the bed.He quickly held her hands. "It's alright, Baby. I am here. Let me call for the doctor."Soon, doctors appeared and checked her, declaring, she is fine but they will keep her in observation for another day. Then doctors left her with her fiancée.Gabrielle sat beside her on the bed, holding her in his arms. Both were silent, when she spoke, "I saw mama in the dream.""Umhm... What did she say?"Hearing his words, Scar couldn't hold back her tears and hiding in his chest, she started crying. "I...I am the rea...son for her death..." She sobbed. "I... Always bl...blamed papa but... it was... me..."She looked up at
With the beeping sounds in the monitor and IV attached to her hand with some other tubes, Scar was laying on the white hospital bed, looking pale much.And a pair of golden green eyes was staring at her without a blink for a second. Twenty-four hours and he has been sitting beside her the whole time. No one could move him from there, not even his mother.He could not believe what the doctor had said when they had to operate on her. They asked him to pray to God, so the baby and mother would be alive.He was devastated and confused when the doctor informed her she is pregnant for a month now. When he was frustrated with the thought that why she didn't inform him, the doctor sighed and said that Scar wanted to surprise him on his birthday and that's why the doctors didn't inform him in the first place.Fortunately, the mother and the infant were fine. However, she needed complete rest during her whole pregnancy and stress out.Gabrielle rubbed his face, still in shock, thinking about wh
With beeping sounds, Gianna woke up with a heavy head. She got hurt in the head when that gangster pushed her hard and lost consciousness.Opening her eyes, her first thought was about Scarlett, if she was alright.She tried to sit up but suddenly the sharp pain crossed her head and a groan escaped her lips."Don't move." A deep voice said, adjusting her pillow and quilt.Immediately, her eyes snapped to the person and it didn't take her a second to learn that, he was none other than Rafaelle, her son."R...Rafaelle..." She muttered. "Y..ou are he...re?" She asked with her groggy tone."Yeah, I stayed here... Umm... While Gabrielle was with Scarlett." He said.A little hope of getting along rises in her mind, thinking that her son has taken care of her in silence when she needed him. Nothing could be more good than this."Scarlett... How is she?" Gianna asked, breaking the silence."Yeah, she is now under observation... In a weak condition as she is... Pregnant." He said, didn't know
"Oh no!"Gianna gasped, earning Scar's attention on her as she watched her in concern."A...are you alight? Umm... Yeah, I know that's a stupid question to ask. Still, ma'am."Gianna blinked her eyes. Now, everything seemed normal. Her looking like the little Lillian she knew and somewhat represents her dead friend.After Isabelle died, she looked for Lillian (Scarlett) and Ryan (Connor), but they seemed to disappear in thin air. And now she was watching her again after years later.Gianna gulped the heavy lump in her throat. She was feeling happy and guilty at the same time. Happy because she finally found her, guilty because of her past behaviour against her and all the badmouthing she did to her best friend not knowing the truth."Miss Wolfe?" Scarlett called her again."Huh!? Umm... Yeah, I... I am fine." She stuttered, keeping the truth aside for now."O...okay." Scar felt a little strange. But, this was not the time for greets she asked in a whispery tone. "Do you have a Bobby p
Scarlett opened her eyes. They felt so heavy as inside her head she could feel a drumming ache.She tried to move around but she couldn't. Confused, Scar looked around only to realise, she was tied up in a dark room, with thick chains on her hands and legs.She tried to drag herself but the heaviness of it was not helping her at all."How the fuck I stuck in here." She mumbled to herself as she looked around again, recalling what just happened.'Wait... I...' She gulped hard. 'I am being kidnapped!' He whole body froze up as she tried to recall the exact sceneries which seemed to be blurry in her mind.'But, who would do that to me?' She thought when suddenly a low painful groan came to her ear.Scar was startled at the sound as she looked beside her and gasped. "Miss Wolfe!" She whispered as it hit her.When those men were forcing her, she came to help but ended up being kidnapped."Oh no, shit!" Cursing in mind, Scar somewhat dragged herself to Gianna as much as he could and whisper
'Papa could be in danger!'Gabrielle held her in his arms. "I will not let anything happen to your or your father and will also catch that cunning woman. Even though I don't have much connection here, I will try my best. And for all this, I need you to trust me, little bird. Do you trust me?"Scarlett nodded her head in silence. She might not say the words or know Gabrielle's actual power, yet she was always aware that he could be trusted blindly. And she would always trust him."Good. You..." However, before he could complete it, another deep voice fell in their ears."I can help with that..."Both turned their head in the same direction and find Rafaelle standing before the entrance, hands in his pockets."Rafaelle..." The couple were in definite shock as it turned into anger for Gabrielle at a slow pace, but Scar's assured hand on his, tamed it a little bit.Rafaelle watched them and shrugged. "Well, I know you guys are not expecting me here. But, I am." He sighed slightly."I saw
Scarlett froze on the spot in shock. Her vision blurred with tears as darkness Consumed her whole. She was nauseous and suddenly wanted to puke.While housekeeper Carol kept talking she jumped from the throwing the phone aside and ran toward the bathroom. Only stopped before the toilet seat and puked all that was inside her stomach.She was so panicked and feeling sick that she didn't even feel Gabrielle's presence behind her and his rubbing on her back.After she let out everything, Scar felt numb and too weak to move as tears started streaming from her eyes.Without a word, Gabrielle picked her up in his arms and with a wet towel, he cleaned her face before taking her back to the bed.She kept crying and there was no stop of it while Gabrielle kept holding her in his arms."G...Gabe... Dad..." She choked on tears.She didn't know why she was very scared for her father. Always thought that she hate him but when the news of his accident came in front, she couldn't control herself from
