You love the hell out of me

And heaven's where we could be

I've stood on the edge of love

But never took the leap

And you took my armor off

And did it delicately

And I let my guard down

To show you what's underneath."__Never worn white by Katy Perry.

Wesley*

As soon as I pulled off the car at the lounge, I turned to Kaitlyn who was staring right beside me. My eyes drifted to her lips, her eyes before resting on her lips again. I lowered my head and covered my lips with hers. Fisting my hand in her hair, I urged her closer not minding the distance between both our seats. My hand found its way up to her breasts and I squeezed hard making a low moan escape from her lips.

"Meet me at the swimming pool. The one close to the terrace. Let's play a game. Together." I said then slipped out of the car, leaving her hanging and carrying Kris from the backseat before making my way to the 65th floor.

"What is this Wesley?"

    "Love. It makes people blind to who their loved ones truly are. You can still know who a person really is and live with that person because you love that person."___Wesley.Wesley*After I finished with the French toast, I added a a bottle of juice then the hot cacao tea to the tray before walking out of the kitchen to join Kaitlyn in the living room.She was holding a pillow to her side then a remote in one hand. She was wearing one of my sweatshirt and one of my boxers. She looked so small in my clothes but it still fitted her perfectly. I had talked to her about her hair this morning but she said she wasn't ready to show her identity to the world yet. She was so focused on the movie she was watching and it was almost like she could relate what was happening in the movie to you in real life. As soon as I mounted the living room, she flopped her head to my direction and flashed me a lazy smile.I sat down beside her on the sofa then placed the tray of food on the table before cuddlin

    "To crown it all, who really is Kaitlyn?"__Wesley. Wesley*I was helping one of my private investigators, Cyrus, trace the man that Kaitlyn had saw earlier but it was to no avail. There were no cameras to capture him of anything and worst, he was wearing some sort of mask that made it almost impossible for anyone to trace his identity. The moment I raised my head, I saw Kaitlyn, leaning against the door frame, her face had a look that disturbed me while her eyes held something I couldn't quite explain.Fear?The moment she saw me staring at her, she gestured to move but I was quick to catch up to her and spun her around to face me."I'm sorry." She said exasperatedly. "I couldn't sleep. Thought I'd busy myself by watching you."I traced my thumb across her jawline, holding her face in my hands. "No harm done."She sighed then lowered her head before raising it up again. "You think I'm crazy, don't you?"A smile tugged at the end of my lips, although it wasn't a smile. "No I don't.

    "It is better to lose everything than to lose the person that made you everything." Kaitlyn*"Mommy, why is Wes taking too long?" Kris who was seated on my lap flopped his head and asked me.We were in the living room watching TV after having dinner and yet, Wesley still hasn't arrived. When I woke up, he wasn't there, meaning he left home since morning and still no news from him. I couldn't even reach him through his phone. I've been extremely worried about him and even Kris wouldn't stop asking for him. And worse, that dream wouldn't stop playing in my mind.What if?What if something's wrong?What if something happened to Wesley?No.Nothing happened to him.Maybe he's extremely busy..."Ever heard of traffic baby?" I asked, running my fingers through his hair. When he nodded I continued, "Maybe that's what keeping him.""Since morning?""Hmm. Maybe he had extra work to do and traffic's keeping him so....""Mommy he's here!" Kris scrambled off my lap and ran into Wesley's awaiting

    "His name is Vlad." __Kaitlyn. Kaitlyn*"Did you really miss my mommy?" Kris asked him, making him unravel his arms around me."Yeah I did." Wesley replied and took off his suit jacket and handed it over to Gretchen."Why didn't you get her a gift then?""Because..." Wesley drawled. "I got her something better."I flashed him a questioning gaze. He walked in here few minutes ago carrying nothing so how I was supposed to believe he got something for me?Other thoughts in my head says maybe he's hidden it somewhere for later."What did you get for me?" I asked him, narrowing my eyes at him. "Chocolates?""Far from that.""Then what?"He drew out something from his pocket and handed it to me."What's this?" I asked, realization dawning on me on what it was."I'm sure you can read very well." He replied simply."Are you insulting me Wesley?" "Enlightening you." He laid down his fork. "We're leaving for South Africa next week. We'd be staying there for about two weeks or more.""Didn't

    "You know somebody once told me that family matters. She said, no matter what a person did to you before, if they're family then their family."__Wesley.Kaitlyn*I was out on the terrace staring at the sky, happy for the nature and the weather condition of today. I let the wind take the new wig I had bought yesterday into the air and back. It had been a lovely day. Waking up with the love of your life by your side, your son always there to make you happy and keep you busy, nice people in the house ready to fulfill all of your needs and so much more. I just felt entirely grateful. If not for the horrible nightmares I had few days ago, I knew I'd still be that Kaitlyn I've always been. But today, I really wanted to be myself. To let it all out. To feel free. And to act as if I was the only one in my world. Except I wasn't."Kaitlyn?" I turned to meet Wesley's gaze. He was dressed in a white button up shirt and black distressed jeans. Even looking so casual, he had this powerful aura tha

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~Wesley*We arrived at our residence in plettenberg bay, South Africa the next day.During our trip, I couldn't get the chance to talk to Kaitlyn about her behavior earlier so I just stuck with giving her sideway glares. She was the one who wanted to make sure her family were safe so how could she treat them like total strangers?Part of the reason why I took them out on this trip was to get Kaitlyn, as far as possible as I could, away from Vlad. I had assign a few men to look after Kaitlyn's mom, despite her refusal to come with us, a few men to be on the lookout for Vlad and his men in LA while a security detail along with John and David Alex Miller, a multi - millionaire who had Karate skills, skilled in combat and could even take down dozens of men without a gun, and also an expert in keeping people safe here with us in plettenberg Bay.The housekeepers, about 20 or so, all scooted out to welcome us and even helped with our luggages.Kaitlyn took Kris who was still sle

I asked her, I couldn't even recognize my own voice."Yes." She said in sobs.All these while, I thought it was just about me.

    Wesley*I twisted the doorknob and entered and what I saw made my heart leap for joy.Kaitlyn, seated on the bed, singing a bedtime song for Kris who was already fast asleep. I didn't really imagine Kaitlyn to be the motherly type considering her type of person years back. It still amazes me how much she's changed of a person; only one problem, she's becoming dangerous, and so possessive. She doesn't even know about the letter Vlad left in her jacket days ago. The thought of Vlad taking her away from me made my gut churn and it felt as if air was being sucked out of my lungs. Yet it's true, if Kaitlyn were to leave me by any chance, there's highly any chance that I might find solace in this life again.She's beautiful. Watching her like that made me think of what our future holds for us. I wanted to make what we had official, give her that normal life with kids and the others but I couldn't. Not when I haven't brought myself to understand that fact that I loved her. I love her very

    Three months laterWesley*I opened my eyes, closed them to be sure I wasn't dreaming, then opened them again.It wasn't a dream. Kaitlyn was sitting next to me on the bed, a wide smile spread across her beautiful, ever glowing face."Happy birthday baby boy," Kaitlyn said, the smile on her face bubbled into laughter."Happy birthday daddy," Kris' face appeared next, balloons in one hand, countless chocolate bars in the other. My eyes shone in surprise when I saw the beautiful decorations and arrangements on the bed. My pictures were scattered all over our bedroom, balloons teasing the walls, sparkling lights and ribbons tied to every edge in our bedroom. It was one of the most beautiful things I had ever seen.When had they done all this without my awareness?Was I under sedation or something?"It's my... it's my birthday..." I murmured, scratching my hair.Kaitlyn nodded, her smile still on her face. "Yes, it is.""And guess what we made for you?!" Kris shrieked out in excitement,

    ~Kaitlyn~I stared at the people in the garden as Wesley wheeled me along slowly with the IV pole. The doctor had told me that I could go out to get fresh air but only if I were to use the wheelchair. He said I was stuck to the wheelchair for a while before the complete healing of my abdomen. I didn't want to tell him how bad I felt but it was also for my own good. They didn't want a situation whereby my wound would reopen. They didn't want me getting hurt again."The people here," I started. "they don't look like normal people to me." I said, earning a chuckle from Wesley."What do they look like?" He asked me as he parked my chair and sat on one of the benches."Well, they seem like expensive people to me. Considering the fact that we're VIPs."He took my feet on his lap and worked it with his thumb. "Why? Don't you like being a VIP?"I shrugged. "I'll have to, eventually. Considering another fact that I'm married to one of the most influential men on earth."He hummed and continued

VIP suite. ~Kaitlyn~Slowly, I ran my hand over the green grasses and beautiful flowers in the field. Just then, I caught sight of one flower that seemed different from the others. It was the most beautiful and the most odd amongst the others. Without hesitation, I plucked it and to my surprise, it prickled me and fell to the ground. It was dying, I noticed.I tried picking it again but this time it prickled me harder, blood peeled out from a prickled finger. I left it and walked further into the field but to my surprise, it was no longer a field. I was standing in front of the ocean."Kaitlyn?"I tilted my head to the sides and nearly yelped when I saw my father; Philip Grey standing by my side. All dressed in white. I stared down at my body and noticed I was also dressed in white. Where

Everything surrounding me was water. A big chain was on my neck and the deeper I went into the water, the tighter the chain became. I couldn't breathe but I managed to keep my eyes opened. Vlad was a fool. He should have shot me or probably drive a knife into me when he had the chance but no, He wanted me to suffer and die a slow and painful death.I closed my eyes in relief when I felt something slowly pulling out the cage I was in from the water. It pulled and pulled and before I knew it, I was bouncing on the surface again. A man, about seven feet tall, heavily built, wearing glasses hurled the cage closer with a small iron and unlocked it, pulling me out of it. When he had compl

    Our hearts would always be tangled together. Our bodies would always be joined together. Our souls would always be one. Even in death. ________________________ Wesley~ After they were done flogging me, they slumped me on the floor and walked out, leaving me alone in my cell to wallow in pain. I was starting to accept the fact that I would die from their endless torture.I raised my head when I saw someone walk in. Vlad. "The great and mighty Wesley Cooper!" Vlad gave out an evil laugh. "or should I say, the pathetic loser of a man. On his knees." He squatted and tilted my face with one finger. "We'll see how long you'll hold up. The only gift I'll be sending to your family after this is your dead body. So keep praying. Pray for your dear soul, 'cause you're not leaving here alive. You're not going anywhere anyway. No one knows we're here. And no one can find you here." He got up and stalked for the gate but turned around before exiting. "Oh and dinner i

    Kaitlyn*"Where is he?! Where is that bastard?!" I yelled as I walked into the living room where a huge chair was seated amidst other small couches. Indeed it was a castle. A magnificent one as a matter of fact. And it made me wonder where Vlad got the money to buy such an expensive mansion when he was just the head of an organization of bloody assassins.Vlad was getting attended to when I barged in the living room. There were about six young women, two helping him into his suit, one, helping him into his shoes, another running her hands into his hair while two others, caressing his body like filthy old whoring masseuses."You bastard." My fists curled up automatically when I saw him. "Where is Wesley?! Answer me!""Is that a way to talk to your father?" He answered softly. "The blood of the man, running through your veins?""I don't give a damn about who you are. Let me make something clear to you, you would never be a father to me. You good for nothing sick old, psycho!""Restrain

    _____I'd rather die protecting you.______Kaitlyn*I was seated on the hood of my car, staring at the ocean as it flowed in waves and went back settled.All I could think about was Wesley.My thoughts were occupied by him and my heart was his only. I would die before I would let anything happen to him.Wiping my tears and moving closer to the ocean, I still couldn't believe that I was going to be a mother again. Infact I hadn't expected this. I was too preoccupied with my thoughts that I hadn't noticed the changes in my body.But the child was not the first priority,The father was.I moved further into the water and lowered myself into it. I closed my eyes and let the thoughts of Wesley occupy my mind completely.I didn't realize that the force of the water was pulling me along with it, because the last thing I remembered was someone calling my name and shaking me to wake up.I opened my eyes and was startled by what I saw. I was lying on a sofa, in an apartment I didn't even know. I

    ~Kaitlyn~*He was staring right back at me.I needed to make a decision.I wasn't going to let him hurt the people I loved."Choose Gwen," He said, rolling the dagger between his fingers. I could see the darkness in his eyes. He was running out of patience. I raised my gaze to meet that of Wesley's. His body was soaked in blood. He didn't have much time. I needed to save him."You either save him and surrender yourself or watch him die then walk away."I couldn't surrender myself to this monster and at the same time, I couldn't trade Wesley's life."Fine. I make my decision." I said, moving closer to him. "You're a monster, Vlad. Never forget that.""At least we both agree on one thing, we're both monsters." That devilish smile playing on his lips. "Make your decision Guinevere. What do you decide upon?""You win. I'm coming with you.""Good." He turned and started walking away but suddenly stopped."He was still going to die either way." With that he threw the dagger at Wesley and I

    ~~~~Protection~~~~~Kaitlyn*I waited. My hands were buried deep into the pocket of my jacket as I waited. Waited for the man that was about to make my life a living hell. I knew he wouldn't be able to. Because I would stop him even if I had to. Alone."You came." A deep voice growled behind me. "When I thought you wouldn't."And when I turned around, it was as if I met with the male version of me. A reflection of my former self. I didn't need a doctor to tell me who he was. His looks completely defined him. Vlad.He was wearing all black. Black suit. Black slacks, black shoes, black earrings and he even had black sunglasses tucked in the pocket of his suit."So you are Vlad?""Not Vlad," His voice boomed in the air. "Your father, Gwen. And after all these years, I'd suggest you show me some respect.""A captain doesn't bow down to another captain. Respect are meant for those who deserves it.""Don't make me force you to eat your words. How I've missed you, Gwen. My little star.""Yo
