"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

    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

    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

    The heavy December wind struck the earth's surface, causing debris to land in different areas of New York City.Lena had gone to get a few drugs for her dad's treatment. Now she was stuck in the pharmacy store; she sighed wearily and wished the wind would stop blowing heavily. She needed to get home to her father as soon as possible."Ena," Pat, the pharmacy technician, called."Oh, I've told you several times that my name is Lena and not Ena." She didn't sound pleasant. She glared at Pat, almost letting out a long hiss. "Hmm, you seem mad at me. Have I done something wrong?" He asked her."It's so tiring that I get to correct you every time. My name is Lena, not Enaaaa." She emphasized."Noted, Lena." He smiled at her, but she didn't acknowledge that. She had moved out to check the weather outside. It was still a bit dark, she stretched her hand to feel the impact of the raindrops on her skin, and it was manageable.She did a mental calculation of the pharmacy to her house and reali

    After Darian left the house with his chauffeur, Lena went to get her father new drugs from her money.It was already late when she returned home. She gave the drugs to him and sat down when he was done taking his prescribed dosage.She coughed out to attract his attention. Glancing at her father, she placed her hands on her chin. "Dad, who was that man?" She was ready to talk about it now. "And what was that whole nonsense he was spewing? I didn't understand anything. Could you please explain this to me? Properly this time." She demanded, swabbing her feet on the floor.Her father heaved a long sigh. Shaking his head in pity, he stared at his daughter."He's Darian Dawson, the CEO of Darian's Holdings. He doesn't reverse his decisions, he speaks once, he's dreadful, and no one dares go against his will," Gavin replied to his daughter in a reserved tone. "How did you get involved with him, dad?" She continued with her questions.He heaved a weary sigh, folding his arms together; he re

    The day was finally here. Lena and Lisa sat in her room while the makeup artist did the last touches on Lena's face, giving herself a satisfactory smile. She turned to Lisa and said, "Done, ma'am!" Then she started to pack her things into the makeup box."I don't think this is necessary," Lena told Lisa. She had rejected the makeup offer when Lisa suggested it to her, but Lisa didn't have it. She went ahead to bring the artist."It is, you look so pretty, and I'm sure he would go crazy once he sets his eyes on you today." Lisa giggled, standing from where she was seated. She strode over to where Lena was sitting and cradled her already-styled hair."I don't want to do this." Lena just realized that after the wedding today, she won't be coming back to her father's house. She was so scared it could be a bad one. "I'm so nervous. I don't want to live with a man I don't know.""This is the crossroad, Lena. We can't go back anymore. We either take a cross, or we stop at a standstill." Lisa

    A few minutes later, the car stopped in front of a gigantic building, the driver honked, and someone came out. Lena didn't know how but she was sure no one had pulled the gate open; it did itself.She smiled, but the smile quickly faded when she remembered Darian was sitting close to her.They got out of the car, and he let out a smug smile."Welcome to my house!" He voiced out, walking into the house without her.Lena was outraged. She had expected him to be nice to her since they had just gotten married.She looked around the big building and almost lost her way. She'd never seen a house that big all her life. The painting was a mixture of white and cream colour, there was an orchard with different kinds of flowers in it, a big garage with over ten cars, and a few tiny houses made part of the big building.She was stunned as she walked towards the entrance and surveyed the building. She loved it already; it was typical of her dream house.She was welcome into the house by the gateke

    After Lena wore the clothes Tina gave her, she went back to the bedroom and positioned herself on the edge of the king's sized bed. She expected a large room with different fixtures in it and so it was.She realized she hadn't eaten, she rubbed her rumbling tummy and made for the kitchen, she remembered it wasn't her house, she went to the living room instead and waited for Tina to show up again.When she did, she requested food and in no time, Tina set the dining table and invited her over."Thank you, Tina." She smiled and went to sit, she looked around but didn't feel the presence of Darian, she wondered where he could be.She set the food well and started to devour it gently. She was some minutes into eating when her phone started to ring —a call from her father but she didn't pick up, she stared at the phone while it rang. After the call ended, there were two more attempts from her father before Lisa placed a call to her.She picked up Lisa's call, pressed the phone to her ear, a

She quickly shut her eyes at once to deter the sun from reaching them.She whined and remembered she wasn't in her father's house anymore, she groaned and yanked the blanket Tina gave to her the previous night, off her body.She let out a soft yawn, looking around the living room to feel someone's presence. Then, she remembered Tina told her she would leave very early. She must have slept for too long, she stood up and thought of where to go, her clothes were in the room she shared with Darian, she didn't want to see him that morning but she didn't have a choice.She huffed an annoying sigh, got off the couch, and walked toward the room, the door was left open, and she figured he wasn't naked again.She walked into the room but didn't find him, she heaved a sigh of relief and crouched down on the bed, she was still surveying the features of the room when she heard footsteps approaching her, s

    "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."

    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.
