last update Last Updated: 2023-02-06 01:27:00

Darian stirred on the bed he was laying on, his hands tossing on the bed. He pushed his head up to see Lena's head holding him back from moving his hand, she was asleep, her head on his hand. He smiled a little, his eyes on her for a long time.

He tried to move again but his arm hurt and he didn't want to interrupt Lena's sleep. Without being told, he already figured that she must be terribly worried about him, he suddenly felt a pang of guilt stinging his chest. He felt horrible for not thinking about her before going out to meet the enemy.

Jay slipped into the room, shutting the door behind him. A gasp escaped his mouth when he saw that Darian was awake. Very quickly, a big smile appeared on his sullen face. "Boss, you are awake." He said as he hobbled towards Darian with a bag in his hand. Lena had told him to get her clothes from Tina at home, he got a few ones for Darian too.

"Jay," Darian sounded weak. Though he tried not to show it, Jay was quick to detect the weakness in his v

    "Gunther is visiting from Dallas.," Jay informed Darian."He doesn't have to come," he grumbled in response. "Call him and tell him to stay back. I was shot in the arm and not the brain." He sat on the couch with the help of Jay."I thought about it, boss," Jay said thoughtfully. "And I suggested that he stayed back in Dallas, but Gaius insisted that he come to visit.""Oh, let them have their way then." Darian threw his hands like he didn't care about whatever they planned. It'd been a week since he got discharged from the hospital, a week of staying at home, unable to make use of his left arm, a week of being almost useless, he hated that."Is there something you'd like me to do for you?" Jay asked.Darian shook his head, nothing for now. Jay and Lena had been very supportive since he got back home. Sometimes he felt he was a burden to them, so he lessened his demands, and declined whenever they asked if he wanted them to do something for him. "About my mother," his eyes darted to

    "What are we doing here?" Lena asked, leading the way into Darian's safe space. She had been there once and she had almost forgotten the place existed. She looked back at him and smiled. "Will you let me hold your hands?" "No, I am fine." He shook his head. He didn't want to be babied anymore, his arm was not hurting like it used to. "Why did you bring me here today?" She repeated her question, in case he didn't hear her the first time."I wanted to get out of the house, it's almost suffocating, you know." He said, bumping hips with her as they walked close to the lotus pond. "Now that I am here, I feel so refreshed." He smiled, smirking at his wife. "What about you, how do you feel?" Lena shrugged her shoulders, "Just normal, I am not just happy that your arm is in a cast. I wish you could make sure of the arm.""Hmm, on the bed?" He arched his eyebrows at her."No, Darian." She yelled, embarrassed. "I wasn't even thinking about that. Common," she hit him lightly, blushing hard.H

    A month and a week had passed, Darian could now make use of his arm and he was back to work. He was in his study room, busy with a project when Lena walked in with a plate of fruits."Hey," she smiled at him, dropping the plate on the table. "I brought this for you, I will leave now." She told him, veering around to leave the room."Lena," he called, deterring her from moving. "There is something I would like to discuss with you." He motioned to the vacant armchair. Lena occupied it immediately, eyes on Darian as she awaited what he was about to discuss with her."Is it something serious? Does your arm still hurt? I thought you said you were fine?" She asked unending questions. He shook his head, sometimes he wished Lena would listen to him first before jumping to a conclusion."Lena, it's nothing serious." He sighed, "I have to travel for some days, will that be fine with you?" He asked, noticing how her shoulders sagged when he said that. Lena frowned, "How many days specifically

    Darian had been gone for two days now, the house was void and Lena missed him terribly. Lisa had gone back to Dallas to attend to some things that required her attention, Tina was having a break from college, and Lena had decided to give her a break from work too, to rest and have fun.Lena was alone inside the mansion, she wandered around the rooms. From the living room down to the cinema room and all the other rooms she had seen, but they never made use of. Darian's mansion was good for touring, and she did that whenever she was bored alone at home.She was back in the main building, sorting out different recipes for fried chicken in the kitchen when she heard the doorbell ring. She wasn't expecting any visitor, and Tina couldn't be the one ringing the doorbell, and neither could it be any of the bodyguards. She dabbed her hands with a napkin, sauntering into the living room to get the door.She pushed the door open to a familiar face, she glanced at the visitor observantly, trying

    Lena made sure she didn't pick up Darian's calls throughout the days he was away. She thought about different things to do before he got back from his trip, she was angry, really angry at Darian for cheating on her with Thelma.She was tossing her clothes into her bag when Darian pulled open the door to their bedroom. He had been calling her for two days but she wasn't picking up, he had to leave what he went for to come back home to see if his wife was good. Even though he got reports from the bodyguards and Tina that Lena was fine, he still wanted to see her and be sure, he was certain Lena would never air his calls unless something had happened.The journey back home was overly long and tiring, he wanted to see his wife so bad to know what was wrong with her. He dropped his suitcase on the bed and moved closer to her. She was aware of his presence, but she pretended not to notice that he was around her. She kept on tossing her clothes in a bag, she suddenly stopped when she didn'

    Darian didn't sleep in the room, he knew Lena was mad at him and he chose to respect her feelings by staying away from her all through the night.In the morning, he leaned against the doorway, the courage to open the door had seeped out of him. He had never been like this, he'd always been the authoritative type and he always got away with whatever he did. But with Lena, the story was different. He cheated on her, and he felt so bad about it. Sighing softly, he pressed the doorknob, opening the door to the bedroom. He slipped in and walked towards the bedside.Lena was still sleeping when he got in, he wanted to get close to her, comb her hair with his fingers and place soft kisses on her hairline. But he couldn't do that when she was so mad at him. He fed his eyes with the beautiful sight of her sleeping. He quickly glanced away when she stirred on the bed, she stretched out her arms and let out a soft yawn."Good morning," he greeted her when their eyes locked, hoping she'd reply to

    Earlier that morning, Lena had left the house to visit her father. Darian made sure her bodyguards went with her even though she quibbled and told him that she didn't want anything that belonged to him anymore. Darian approached Jay for advice when Lena was away. Though not conversant with matters of the heart, he was able to advise him on a few things to do, to placate his wife and Darian decided to try them out, hoping they'd work out. It'd been four days already and he missed her dreadfully, living in the same house with her and not talking to her was doing a lot of harm to him. He wanted his wife back.He busied himself with mafia affairs while she was away. Even as he worked, he was constantly checking to see if she had arrived. He had different thoughts and somehow, he feared that Lena would not return to his house because she was mad at him. He crouched on a sofa in the living room, patiently waiting for her.Darian was restless as he peeked through the window from time to t

    "I thought I lost you," Darian mumbled under his breath."You almost did, I didn't want to ever come back home." She smiled, stroking his fingers."I am sorry once again, do you want me to go on and say sorry a million times?" He locked eyes with Lena for a split second before looking down at her hand that was resting on his.Lena nodded her head, "Yes, Darian. Say sorry a million times.""I thought you said you'd forgiven me." He grimaced, sighing softly."Darian," she pouted, letting go of his hand. He took her hands back and started, "I am sorry, I am sorry, I am sorry, I am sorry, I am sorry, I am sorry azz going to let me do this?" He glared at her.Smiling sheepishly, Lena nodded her head. "Go on." She nudged him with her hands."How about I do something else that you will like?" He inched closer to her, sealing the space between them. Lena shifted back but Darian didn't let her move too far. "I am sorry, but I am sure you will like this better." He leaned forward, drooping his

    The tiny cries of Dala woke Lena from her afternoon nap. She had been taking care of the baby before Darian showed up and decided to help her out, letting her sleep for some time. She was only a few minutes into her sleep when her cries filled her ears, piercing into them and she just couldn't ignore the cries of her three months old baby.Yawning, Lena stretched to her feet and walked closer to the cot that was in their bedroom. "What does she want again?" She asked Darian who was trying to soothe the baby as she cried harder."I guess she's hungry." He handed the baby over to her. "You should feed her," he sighed, walking down to sit on the bed. "Darian, she eats a lot. I fed her before you came in and she wants to eat again. Why is she being like this?" Lena halted, shaking her head. She held the tiny fingers of her baby and smiled at her. "Dala, mama needs to sleep, baby." The baby chuckled, winking her large hazel eyes at her mother. Lena's heart softened, she just couldn't be

    Some months later. All the members of the Dawson family mafia were still against Darian, but he knew what he wanted and he fought hard for it until victory was his. After much deliberation, several meetings and many days of resentment, Isabella was finally accepted back into the family. She didn't associate with the members of the Dawson family because she was yet to gain back her memory to figure out exactly who they were and how harshly they treated her in the past. She only maintained her distance from them and didn't go beyond where Darian told her to go. Lena rubbed her protruding tummy as she sat beside Darian on the divan in the lounge, it was late in the night and they were looking at the stars that aligned at the skies together, discussing how far they'd come in their relationship and how she was due for delivery in a few days. Darian took Lena's hand and smiled, "How do you feel now?" He asked, his eyes not leaving her tummy. He couldn't contain his happiness, he already

    "Hey," Lena tapped Darian but he didn't respond to her. Tossing around on the bed, he faced the other side and pulled the duvet over his head, deterring her from seeing his face. "Darian," squinting, she wondered what was wrong with her husband. "Darian, are you good?" She wasn't having it, his silence made her so uncomfortable, and she was so eager to know what went wrong with him. He had been in a mood since he got back from work that evening and that was affecting her whole evening.Darian yanked the duvet off his body, sitting straight on the bed. He looked over to see Lena's worried face, he wriggled his head and looked away from her."Darian, did I do something wrong to you?" She asked but he didn't give her a word. "Darian," she touched him, he jerked away from her hold and she shook her head in confusion. "What's wrong with you? What happened at work?" She was concerned about him."Never mind, Lena. I just want to be alone." He got off the bed, heading towards the doorpost. L

    "You've gone against the mafia rules, Darian." Gaius declared harshly, his eyes ogling Darian's body as he stood amid every member of the Dawson family mafia. "You can't lead us anymore, we don't want a boss who works in cahoots with the enemy."Darian chuckled, "Works in cahoots with the enemy, you say?" He repeated."Yes, how do we trust you after you went back to an enemy and let her stay in your house?""Judson, I know you've always wanted the position of the Don, but I promise that you will never get here, you won't sit your ass on that throne." He stated frantically, throwing his fingers towards the throne chair.Judson chuckled devilishly. "Let's see how long you will last there."Darian lowered his gaze on Judson, he put him under the scrutiny of his eyes and after a while, he stared away from him and looked at Gaius."You have no right to come up with the decision, let the people decide if I should be reinstated or removed." He narrowed his gaze on them, everyone present in t

    It was past three months and Lena's bump was yet to be visible, she rubbed her hand on her belly as she looked through the mirror. Darian had his eyes on her the whole time. Smiling, he crept out of bed and walked up to where she was standing in front of the mirror."You look so beautiful, you do not need a mirror when you have me. I am the only one who can show you how beautiful you are." He swivelled her around, cupping her face in his hands. "My wife."Lena smiled, "I am checking to see if the baby bump is out yet. I am so nervous, I really can't wait to see it.""I can't wait too, it will be the most beautiful sight to behold. My beautiful wife is pregnant with our baby." He kissed her neck. "Thanks for all that you do, Lena. You make me so complete, you make me a complete man and I love you so much.""I wouldn't settle for anyone else but you, Darian. You make me feel like the most beautiful woman in the world. Loving you is the best feeling I have ever felt and I don't want to

    Darian pushed the door open. Waltzing in, he placed his hand on his sides and looked at his wife. A bright smile appeared on her face, she was happy to see him. She could never get enough of him."You were taking time and I just wanted to be sure that all is well with you." Darian rested his back on the door after shutting it."Yes, we were discussing." Lena retorted. "And was about to come to the dining table when you knocked at the door. Did you miss me so much you can't eat without me?"Darian chuckled at Lena's naughtiness, "You know there is something that we have to do, don't you?" He asked and she shook her head.Getting her ass off the bed, she moved closer to him. "Tell me, Darian, do you miss me?" She inquired, staring into his eyes. Isabella looked at them through the corner of her eyes, she admired and envied them. She wished her love life with Raymond was that perfect, she wished she made it to marriage with him, but she was happy that she had someone as beautiful as Dar

    After Tina served the table, she proceeded to inform Darian and Lena about it. When they were settled on the dining table, Lena excused herself to get Isabella from the room.She got to the doorpost and knocked gently at the door, her waist hurt as she stood by the door. She leaned against the doorpost, hand clamped over the doorknob. She knocked four times and there wasn't any response from Isabella. She panicked, hurrying to burst into the room. She got in and met Isabella resting on the bed, her eyes shut and her head above her head."Isa?" She called but there was no response from her. Lena was scared, different thoughts ran through her mind as she approached Isabella who looked lifeless from her posture. "Isa?" She stooped to touch her face and Isabella's eyes snapped open, blinking her eyes in search of the intruder who had disturbed her reverie. "Are you alright?" Lena asked her.Nodding her head, she sat up and heaved a long sigh. "I am fine," she responded dryly."Oh, I have

    "Darian," Lena called. She had noticed how he trailed off when she was talking to him about the reports she got from the Doctor earlier at the hospital. He looked at her with an expressionless face. "What's wrong with you?" She lowered the baby's onesie on the bed and sat next to Darian."Lena," he called dryly."What happened when I was away? Did you talk with Isabella?""Yes, I did," Darian replied. "She wants to leave the house.""Why would she want to leave the house? Did you say anything that prompted that decision?" She glared at him, knowing what Darian could do.He shook his head, narrowing his eyes on her. "I wanted to have a conversation with her and the first thing she said to me was that she wanted to leave the house.""Is that why you are moody?" "No, Lena. I am not moody, I am fine. There is a lot on my mind. But come here," He motioned to his lap. She crawled into his lap and rested her head on his back."What's it that you are thinking about, my love?"Darian chuckled

When he couldn't get across Tina through the intercom, he decided to leave the study room and get to the kitchen.Isabella was seated on a couch in the living room, her eyes fixated on the blank television screen. Darian wondered what she was staring at that got her extreme attention. He ignored them and proceeded to the kitchen but he couldn't take further steps, thoughts of Isabella filled his head and he decided to stop to have a conversation with her.He paced the living room, not knowing how to incite the conversation with them. Isabella noticed him but she said nothing, when Darian didn't stop walking around the living room, she cleared her throat and spoke out."I want to leave your house."Her words caused Darian to waver, he sent a glare to her and shook his head.
