Jace POV I watched her sleep. Guess I could never get tired of doing even as simple as watching her sleep. Whether by just brushing her hair, putting on her shoes or even the simplest thing she does. I can't deny how much I adore and love this woman. And she’s all mine! Yeah call it too girly but I don’t care, I’m whipped! Sadly, I wasted too much time judging her past actions without minding everything carefully and thoroughly. Yeah, I got hurt and I let that pain eat me fully. Heaven knows how bad I want to hit myself now for letting our love slipped away in the past. If only I hold on to that love and not on the pain that I thought she caused, maybe I could’ve at least helped her. I’m such an idiot for not thinking and knowing the reason behind her strange disappearance. And that one reason is to protect the people she loves the most. Her da

After a few seconds, I tried to sneak a peek inside the room and found no one. Hmmm! I can smell something good from outside I wonder who else would wake up this very early if it's not Jace. After fixing the bed, I went straight to the washroom and do my thing. As I saw that it's almost time to wake up the kids, I hurriedly went to the kitchen to check what can I feed my family.

Arianne’s POV I got startled on the constant pounding on the door. Good thing it made me comeback to the present. For several days, I don’t actually have any idea exactly what day is today, all I know is that Jace, Natalia and their marriage are all over the news. That’s why I decided to lock myself in my room. I know it’s kind of selfish but really I don’t know how to face the world anymore most especially my two innocent children. Thank god for Dad and Riza, helped me telling the kids that I caught some virus that’s why I have to stay away from everyone. But I'm also hoping that the news about their father and his wife haven’t reached them yet. Until now, I still haven’t figure out how to explain it to my children. Or if I’m ready for any reaction that would come out from them. I’m very scared honestly! Scared on how will they take it that we can never have their father as often as we needed him because it would also be unfair to his wife.
