The Date II

Jericho’s POV, My lips curved into a radiant smile after I had sent a text to Alex. It’s just 5am and I had landed in Rome. I didn’t sleep with Leia last night. I was unable to sleep maybe because of the overwhelming bliss that was stirring within me. I spent the night with Alex, who I ran into at the bar, drinking. We had a discussion about my date and he of course teased me about how I had fallen heads over heels for the same wife I’d kicked against but I denied it again. I wanted to keep things low key till it’s the right time.Quickly, I changed the topic and I brought up Rya. The way he got tensed all of a sudden, still had me chuckling right now. Even though he’d denied not having any feelings towards Rya, I know he’d been hooked by that girl. I had arrived in Rome and in the most prominent and classy hotel. I stood rooted to a spot, hands behind me, looking out through the glass wall in one of the halls which was at the topmost part of the building. I paid to get the hall

The Date III

We got on a horse and rode out of the slum. Deep into the city, we stood in front of a cemetery. Jericho got down and helped me disembark from the horse. We walked into the cemetery and Jericho led the way.He stopped in front of a grave with the inscription, 'Guilia Banda Della'. My eyes shook as realization dawned on me. Banda Della was a name Alfonso coined from his in-laws? Yeah he mentioned it sparingly during the memorial party. He must have loved his wife so dearly.There and then, a question propped up in my head and I voiced it out without a second thought."How did your mother die?" I asked looking up into Jericho's eyes. He looked into my eyes and diverted his gaze immediately. There was sadness in his eyes and he walked away from me.I closed the distance between us and hugged him from behind. I heard him sigh and I held him tighter but he unwrapped my arms and turned around to face me."Leia… I love you so much and I want you to trust me all the way, I won't let any harm

Rising Conflict

Fears and Worries

Jericho's POV.The weight of the words 'I am pregnant’, dropped down on me all at once. My body turned cold as my eyes refused to leave the food. Not that it was much of a pretty sight, but I was trying my best to curb myself from looking at Leia. As a mother-to-be, she ought to be joyous, but how would she feel when her husband rejected her. I couldn't even help it. Even when I had reassured her that the pregnancy had nothing to do with my silence, it was certain that Leia knew I was lying.I brushed past her without looking at her. What could I say to her? That I was happy. I was supposed to be happy, but the different thoughts that went through my head made it difficult for me to be happy.I zoomed off with the same car I used for my trip. I only stopped driving at a bar. A place where I could alleviate my tension and forget for a while that my wife was pregnant.Leia can't be pregnant now, the words screamed at me as I gulped down my second shot. Things are not looking good for

A Change of Heart

My heart sank and I rushed over to Leia. "Leia…" I called but she turned her back against me. "Go!" She yelled. I ignored her resistance and held her from behind. She wiggled out of my hold and walked out with tears falling from her eyes. I stood transfixed and could not move an inch. The fact is that I am as sore as she is.When I finally walked out, she was nowhere to be found. Lin came to my mind but when the head maid called her, she confirmed that Leia wasn't with her.I could not eave without knowing how well she was doing. I will not forgive myself if anything happens to her.I remained by the railings on the third floor in the penthouse. From there, I had a good view of the whole property.While I waited, Alex paraded the whole place, disturbing me with his bustling. He must have noticed my sore mood and since he knew he couldn't ask me anything, he was doing his best to get my attention. Little did he know that he was only making things worse."Get the fuck away!" I yelled

The Stranger In The Creepy Coat

Jericho’s POV, Agitation! Pride! Fulfillment! These are the words that best described how I was feeling as I took gentle steps through the alley outside the mansion. I was in a corporate working suit but I won’t be working in a mansion rather the penthouse. My hands were folded behind me and a fulfilling smile was etched on my face. I can’t believe this is happening. The feeling of birthing a little life from my seed was just so strange to me and yet fulfilling. I’d finally willed myself to accept the fact that I’m going to be a father soon but that doesn’t mean the underlying worries and questions in me had been satisfied. In fact more questions kept coming and that made me so agitated. The fact that I don’t know whatever Alfonso is plotting in his mind right now, was really disturbing! Knowing him very well, he would stop at nothing until he sees his enemies crumbling to the dust and Leia is one of them. I know I’ve lost a lot of important people in my life before but I won’

Lucita

*****Flashback*****JerichoWe were all gathered at the base. Some men corked their guns while others wore their boots as they got ready for the fight ahead. I fired a bullet into space, something I always did to alert myself of what I was about to face. I turned to look at Alex, who was placing a second Glock into his straps. “How long?" I asked.“Bully said 5" he responded in a strained tone as he struggled with the gun.“That's how long it'll take for those fuckers to get there? perfect." “We can end them once and for all. Some men are already in the field" announced Alex. “Alfonso sent them," he added.“How many?" “About 15. Plenty enough to deal with that pest"“But I still have to go, Dante's men could go down, but that man wouldn't go down so easily"The sound of hasty footsteps echoing through the building prevented Alex from saying a word. He stood on guard and so did I. It was just one person, but it could be from Dante. Alex wasn't patient enough, he took a gun that was

A Room at Nonnina's Chambers

Leia's POV, For like a forever moment, I continued to peer into the lady's beautiful face, taking in her delicate features and the hint of sadness and rage glistening in her eyes. I diverted my gaze to Jericho and there he stood before his desk, still frozen like a statue and his obs fixated on the lady. "Lucita?" He finally muffled but loud enough for all of us to hear. His voice was tight with anger as he glared at the stranger in front of him. At the mention of that name, something dawned on me. The name rang a bell and I could swear I’ve heard it before. I racked my brain, trying so hard to remember where I had heard the name and as if my perplexity wasn't enough, Jericho threw me off stage with the next words that rolled out of his mouth. “I thought you were dead!" he yelled, his anger boiling over.Lucita brows narrowed and her lips quivered but she said nothing. "I am going to see Nonnina, I have surely missed her," she finally said and walked out of the office."Nonnina?

Heartbeats

Jericho’s POVLeia remained clasped in my arms even when I was done with the story. She hadn’t said anything and I yearned to open up her head and see what was going on. The silence was killing me. There was no doubt, I already knew how she would feel. She was my wife after all and she could see the possibility of her position being taken from her by a mystery girl who she knew I once loved. I wasn’t planning on leaving Leia, but I knew it would be very tough for me to do that especially when Lucita had the keys to my heart.“Leia”I called out to her, but was greeted by her silence. I managed to peek at her as she lay still on my chest very serenely. Her eyes were closed, explaining why her body was so still while I talked. I knew she heard everything I said. What I wanted was a reaction, but she had fallen asleep.Slowly I slipped her off me and I left the bedroom silently. Instead of staying in the sitting room or the study, I decided to go to the penthouse instead. The heaviness
