CHAPTER 11: NOWHERE TO HIDE

Eddie Carter jumped into his double cab pickup truck and drove to work. He took one last glance at the beauty whom he had just been chatting up and smiled.They all claimed to be taken but he knew that this was every woman’s way of playing hard to get. Ella was a real natural beauty. Her oval face made her big eyes that were surrounded by long eyelashes stand out in a crowd. Her tiny nose made her look dainty and her full lips looked like they were begging to be kissed. But this wasn’t the thing that had caught his attention. Several days ago, Ella had walked into the coffee shop and walked to the counter. She made her order and then settled in a corner seat. Eddie had to admit that her figure had caught his attention right away. She was wearing tight blue jeans and a fitting blouse. Although she had an ample bust, her hips drove him crazy the minute he spotted her. He watched her scroll through her phone as she waited for her order and he knew he had to make a move.The waitress soon

CHAPTER 12:  THE WARRIOR COMES ALIVE

Blake watched Ella as she timidly walked to the bathroom. As soon as she closed the door, he walked to the other bedroom to take a quick shower. He had been livid with anger when David had told him that she was having coffee with an unknown man. The photos he had received showed Ella smiling as she played with her hair. She had never been that flirty or relaxed with him even when they lay naked in bed together. The photos had taken him back to a dark place in his life. He remembered countless reports of his ex wife being spotted in various establishments with different men. He had tried everything from threatening her to withholding money but it had only fuelled her hobby. She would always make time for her clandestine activities. She never cared about his reputation or what this looked like for their marriage. After all, she knew that as long as Jason needed her, Blake could never get rid of her. He had always wanted to instil some fear in her, but he had never been able to do this.

CHAPTER 13: THE SEED

Ella walked to her room trembling. When she closed the door behind her, she lost the strength in her knees and sank to the floor. It had felt good to tell Blake off and let out the tension and anger that had piled up in her heart. She had endured humiliation, degradation, and all sorts of subtle abuses in the last three months. She had never slept hungry or wanted for anything, but the last few days of freedom had made it clear that there was so much more to life. But then she wondered about what she had just done. Ella had told Blake that she wanted to leave and that she would forfeit everything. So how was she going to survive? She had no job and her monthly allowance would at most secure her a rental unit. ‘What I’m I thinking? Is this the same allowance that I told Blake to recover?’ Ella said to herself as she tapped herself on the forehead.As she changed into her sleeping clothes, she thought of another part of the conversation that was disturbing her. He had said that he was i

Hurlingham is a quiet and well planned section of the city centre that is hidden far from the hustle and bustle of the main city. This section of town is filled with property owned by the wealthiest people in the city, and the businesses in this section of the city targeted them.

He wanted to form a different kind of circle.

CHAPTER 15: A RAY OF HOPE

Boulevard drive was a flurry of activity as dozens of people walked around with a sense of urgency. The county government had put out advertisements for jobs and hundreds of people were going out of their way to submit applications. Jessica was caught right in the middle of the chaos. This had been the first thought when she woke up in the morning. She had been so eager to take up this job because it was within her hometown. After seeing the children off to school, Jessica had borrowed her father’s car and driven to the county offices. After establishing the drop off office, she parked the car on the edge of the parking lot. She picked up the envelope with copies of her credentials and placed it on top of the car before she strapped the baby on the carrier. She could see a crowd surging towards one building and she walked in that direction. All of a sudden, the crowd surged and the main door in the building was kicked open. People began to push and shove and Jessica saw one man runni

CHAPTER 16: LOVE WINS

It was a bright Sunday morning and the mood in the room was relaxed. Ella and Blake had woken up earlier and shared a shower which had led them straight back to bed. After a steamy session of lovemaking, the couple lay in bed in silent reflection. Blake finally broke the silence when he kissed Ella’s forehead.“Maybe we should get out of bed now,” he said as he cuddled her closer. “You make the bed very cosy. I could stay here all day,” she said. She planted a gentle kiss on his chest and then she sat up. Blake pulled her back into the bed and gave her a long hard kiss. Ella could see the look of pure desire in his eyes and she knew exactly what he wanted. “I thought we were getting out of bed,” she said teasingly. “It’s still early. We could…” he said trailing kisses along her shoulder and neckline. He moaned deeply when a faint gasp escaped from her lips. Soon they were locked in another kiss but it was not long before a persistent knock interrupted them.“Daddy, open the door,”

CHAPTER 17: WELCOME TO THE FAMILY 

Ella did not consider herself to be a product of a humble upbringing. She had been brought up in a modest home with two loving parents and two elder brothers. She loved being the last born because everyone went out of their way to teach her all sorts of new things. Additionally, her parents had provided her with a comfortable house where she had her own room. She had never felt less than adequate even when she interacted with people of more affluent background. That was until she took a drive with Blake to his old house.It all started when they were about 2kms away from Blake’s house. Ella could clearly observe the change in affluence as they drove from her simple house. The scenery had slowly transitioned crowded shopping centres with massive foot traffic, to a more serene atmosphere that was interrupted by a lone shopping mall here and there. As they went further on, the malls faded away and the scene changed to large expanses of land. Huge mansions were scattered in each of the su

CHAPTER 18: LIES THAT BIND

The smell of freshly made pancakes filled the air at the hotel suite. A heavily loaded table was set with fluffy pancakes, waffles, pies and cereal. Another tray held brewed coffee, milk, freshly squeezed juice and assorted fruits. It was Monday morning and everyone was setting the pace for the week. Ella, Jason and Blake had spent the night in a luxurious suite and they were having breakfast. Jason was getting ready to have an online study session because Blake had chosen not to take him to school. He was still worried about the breach in privacy in his home and he wanted it resolved. Jason was having the time of his life spending the morning in the hotel suite while ordering food and drinks of his choice. Ella was also enjoying the rest and relaxation and the online shopping spree that had resulted in an assortment of clothes being shipped to the suite. Blake was the only one having a hard time. He had sent both his phone and Ella’s to a security agent so that any tracks could be r

CHAPTER 19: THE DEVIL IS IN THE DETAILS

A pregnant woman is like a rollercoaster. You never know when she is up or down. This had been the experience for Blake over the last few months as Ella’s pregnancy progressed. The first few months had been difficult as Ella could barely keep any food down. She had tried different medication but nothing seemed to be working. Everything had changed in her sixth month as the nausea and morning sickness had ended completely. She had regained her appetite in a big way and she and the baby had thrived. Blake was enjoying all the ups and downs of the pregnancy because Ella depended on him completely. She called him when she was feeling unwell, or when she had cravings and even when she was in a bad mood. Blake was loving the attention and he doted on Ella every chance that he got. Jason had also noticed the changes and he was very gentle with Ella. He had completely begun to address her as mum and Ella had not had the heart to stop him. They still enjoyed the drives back and from school du

CHAPTER 20: SHATTERED REALITY

The past three days had been long for the Raymond family. As each member of the family nursed their injuries in separate rooms, the family longed for the time when they would go home and be together again. Blake and Ella often visited Jason together and kept him company. They would also visit the baby and sit with her. Ella looked forward to holding her daughter and breastfeeding her. She was in actual pain from the milk filling her breasts, and she had begun to pump out the milk. That was one of the reasons why she was excited when the doctor said that the baby could now be reunited with her mother. Her weight gain had been impressive and she was able to breathe on her own. The paediatric nurse had brought the baby to Ella’s room and Ella had shed some tears when she was able to hold and breastfeed her for the first time. Blake and Jason had both fallen in love with the baby. They had even relocated their visits to Ella’s room. They had meals together and spent as much time as possi
