Author's PovCaressing his hair Freya silently stayed curled on his lap as the giant man hugged her like his life was depended on her. From the time he made her sit on his lap the peaceful silence with a slight noise of pool water swirling with the cold wind echoing in the background filled the area.Freya might hadn't forgiven him yet but she knew this time he needed someone to be with him, he needed her comfort and warmth. And knowing Leonard well she knew he will try to let his pain out by drinking his guts out and she didn't want him to risk out his life just to deal with this pain alone so putting her indifferences aside she came to him."Can a father really be this cruel?" His hoarse whisper entered her ears as she felt his warm breathing caressing her neckline.She sighed in sadness having no answer, ofcourse no father could be like the way Ajax was. Sofia did once tell Freya that Ajax never actually wanted children as he always thought her attention would be divided but after
Author's PovHugging her arms she stared at the glossy window glass with her calm eyes holding a troubling storm behind her blank gaze, she knew it was the time she had to make a proper decision to do what she knew would be best for her. But would it be equally right for Leonard especially after their conversation of last night.It's been a month of Sofia and Ajax' demise and even though Freya wasn't as comfortable being with Leo as she was before she got to know about the truth but still she knew he needed her the most right now and fighting with herself she finally shut off the reluctant part of her mind and opened her arms for Leo to find comfort him in them which he did.Last night Freya after taking a fresh shower came out finding her fully suited husband bringing a big box and placing it on the table, it looked like something of metal which needed assembling. She watched with her curious eyes as the man stood up with his yellow scary eyes twinkling with happiness for the first t
Author's PovFreya sighed placing her one palm over her waist and other rested on her swollen stomach as she watched the stubborn man wearing a waiter's clothes taking orders from the customers more like from his fan girls who visited the cafe almost daily just to watch the giant man cladded I a waiter's clothes serving them.His face spared on emotion as he took the order with blank gaze not even acknowledging the open invitations from the swooning girls, and as expected he did what he always do. He raised his hand showing them his ring cladded finger snatching their flirty smiles and gestures. It was obvious from their faces they wanted to leave but too late.The cunning man had taken their order and now it would be embarrassing to cancel the order so they simply shifted uncomfortably and waited for him to bring their food. The disappointment was evident on their pretty faces but decency flourished from their demeanor when they didn't hit on him again and got busy in chatting with e
Author's PovLeonard cracked his neck before massaging his shoulders with his aching fingers as he stepped out of the bathroom after taking a long relaxing bath, he had been working way too much now a days that sometimes in tiredness he skipped dinner and just wanted to lay on the bed to sleep.Many people would have started regretting trying for something which had no guarantee in the end, but he wasn't, instead he was feeling more and more hopeful with each passing day. He knew Freya loved him, and still did but she was just afraid of trusting the man who broke her trust many times. And he couldn't even blame her for that, it was solely his fault.Wearing the comfortable thin shirt and trousers he walked out with his messy wet hair slightly falling over his eyes, soon his jaw hardened when he found his little wife sleeping on the couch of the living room. She did this many times in this whole month even after his strict warning to her that it wasn't good for her.He knew she got sle
Author's Pov"It really surprises me still that how much audacity you have to even call me your daughter, the same kid you abandoned and handed to the people whose daughter you killed!" She noticed a slight change glint of guilt in Stark's eyes but it didn't last more than a second."I was lucky that those people were nice enough to provide me with the things I could only wish, I was the daughter of their daughter's murderer yet they never tried anything to take a revenge on me. But just imagine what would have happened to me if they were really Vengeful minded people just imagine!" She didn't lie when she said they never harmed in a vengeance instead they always tried to treat her better at least Sofia did. Ajax might be indifferent but he never let her feel like she was the daughter of his culprit.But her this statement twisted Leo's face into guilt remembering how he was the only one among his family who actually tried to harm her in the name of revenge. He seriously wanted to rev
Author's PovPalming her swollen belly Freya's forehead scrunched into a deep scowl as she whimpered in pain, hardly sitting up from her laying position she switched on the side lamp and let out a soft cry feeling another kick of pain. Her hand swiftly started finding her phone which she placed on nightstand but instead of grabbing it she accidentally dropped the lamp on the floor making a loud clattering sound."Ah!" She cried out letting the tears damp her cheeks, it was too painful.She looked up hearing two knocks on her the door, "Freya, what happened? I heard a loud noise! Are you ok?" She heard her husband's worried voice as he impatiently questioned her. She knew Leo was a light sleeper but after she got pregnant he became more conscious around her."L-Leo," She whimpered crying in pain when Leo instantly opened the door and after finding his wife on the bed crying while clutching her stomach he ran near her."Freya, is it the time?" She nodded her head hardly finding her voic
Freya's PovI watched as Leonard held our little angel in his bare arms cooeing at her. It was a rare yet an adorable sight to behold, I wish the time to just pause so I could stare at the beautiful picture my mind was creating and reserving it in the messy memories but something about those painful memories had changed.Without my realization the memories I held onto thinking that I will never be able to forgive this man had started diminishing and his massive struggle and efforts to get me back had started overpowering those painful memories I once lived. I wish we never had to go through such pain, I wish I still had the same trust on him but alas! Somethings just didn't meant to be.It's been two weeks I gave birth to Aera, our sweet little girl and I could see how Leonard had been struggling with his professional and personal life. I knew he could simply flew back to Spain and hold onto his scattered business but he wasn't ready to give up. And now I was forced to accept that as
(This chapter is solely for Evan and Janet)Author's PovEvan sighed heavily once again getting a no response from Freya's number, he closed his eyes leaning his head against the sofa when he remembered the same face that had been haunting him for many months.Janet. The woman who broke his heart mercilessly when he wanted her the most, the woman he broke heart of, the same way but God forbid if he claimed that it gave him any kind of relief after doing that. She was still the woman he loved beyond himself and now to think of he was glad he didn't marry Freya.He didn't appreciate how he didn't marry her and never would he be thankful that she chose to marry that man. Yes, he heard about the marriage ceremony and for a few days he actually wanted to run to her in order to save her but after seeing her joyful frame and satisfied eyes he knew he had won over her.He had no idea what Leonard did to her to make her give in to him this easily but regardless of his dislike towards the man h
Author's Pov"Leo, stop scaring me!" She mumbled holding onto his hand like a scared cat as he was helping her to walk because of her eyes being blindfolded.When she woke up early in the morning she found a beautiful large box placed over the couch confusing her. The very first she went to her daughter's room to check upon her, Aera had turned almost a year, her birthday was just two weeks away and Leo had made a plan of throwing a massive party even though I didn't want to make it any big event but he clearly said it was his angel's first birthday he wasn't going to let it any less of an important event of his life.Not finding her daughter in the room she frowned panicking a bit but after coming in her room she approached the couch to get her phone when her eyes fell on the small card laying over the box. Grabbing it she opened the paper piece and read the words written on it which both eased her tension and burned the spark of curiosity in her heart.My precious, be ready till 5 p
Author's Pov Freya frowned raising her eyebrows when she didn't find Leonard in the room, her scowl eased a bit after she made sure Aera was fast asleep and she indeed was. But in order to find Leonard she marched to the terrace. Leoaned had grown this new habit of watching the empty hollow forest behind their house at night.But he always returned back to the room on time, today when he didn't return even after her waiting for him she decided to check up on him. Opening the glass door she stepped out of terrace shivering a bit hugging the shawl she had dabbed over her arms when the cold wind attacked her tiny frame. As expected, he was standing on the edge watching the dark forest with his blank gaze, his palms were placed over the concrete half wall doing the work of railing. Walking near him she watched how he snapped out of his lost thoughts and turned his whole attention towards her."What happened?" She mumbled making the man sigh lightly shooting her a small smile."Nothing I
Author's PovFreya's lips curved into a small smile staring at the beautiful warm view in front of her, she went to make milk for her little angel but the moment she returned she found her sleeping over her father's chest who didn't even change his office suit and simply held her the second he arrived at home.A warm feeling spread over her chest hearing the word home echoing in her head, yes the home she always wanted to build but was failing each time because of many obstacles but now she had finally created one and with the man she never thought she will ever again be able to live under same roof.After her accepting to give him a last chance to mend their relationship he didn't disappoint her, after a week they returned to Spain in order ease his overwhelming work. She informed her grandmother and she also told her to not worry about the cafe she will ask one of her friends to look after it in her absence.Leonard as promised hadn't touched her till now, he had been giving his bes
