Chapter: Chapter 128Brielle's POV5 years later"Yay! Mommy I did it, I did it!" River jumped up and down in joy after scoring a goal. Blake ran towards him and picked him up and placed him on his shoulder and spun him around." Good shot my boy! You are a super star!" Blake said to river.Mia got on her feet as well. She pulled me and said, " Mommy, I want to kick the ball too. I can do it too."I smiled at her knowing where this was going. Typical little Mia. Ever since she was born, she seemed to be on her own path. She didn't want to be her brother's little sister. She wanted to be older and better than him. Her competitiveness was cute but a little concerning at time.I remember one time she and River were climbing a tree in the garden. They were competing on who could go higher than the other. Of course River was going to win. She did something surprising. She pulled River's leg and he lost his balance and fell off the tree, breaking his arm.I was so shocked that day I didn't know what to do. She

Chapter: Chapter 1275 months laterBrielle's POVI didn't know that pregnancy would be such a pain. Mood swings, swollen feet, cravings, back pain, you name it. I never thought one of those pregnant ladies who got emotional over every little thing or get weird cravings but guess what, I am. The other day, I wanted a raw mango. Later it was mint chocolate. I hate mint. It tastes like fucking toothpaste but now that I craved it, I suddenly couldn't get enough of it.My feet got swollen a lot and Blake loved giving me a massage. When I cried and cursed him out for getting pregnant, he never lost his patience with me. Instead, he gathered me in his arms as best as he could and would let me chew him out but in the end, he would whisper sweet nothings into my ear, telling how beautiful I am and how lucky he was to have me. That made me feel a lot better. The garden was my favourite place these days. Just sitting on a rocking chair under the tree watching other little kids running around carefree made my heart

Chapter: Chapter 126Blake's POVIt's been an hour since I came down as my mother requested. I was sitting amongst everyone but my mind was back with Brielle. Each moment spent away from her, I he'd back from running back to her. I was so lost, everything happening in front of me was a blur. I couldn't be there anymore. I was too restless and it wasn't helping. VI excused myself and made my way upstairs. Opening the door to my room I thought I would find Brielle still laying on the bed but she was no where. I went inside in alarm. Where is she? I looked around the room wandering if she had finally regained consciousness. If she did, where is she? Where did she go without anyone noticing? In what condition is she in?I was about to go search for outside but I heard water running in bathroom. I looked in the direction of the bathroom. She must be in there. I went there and went inside. She had her back facing me. I felt all kinds of emotions flowing through me as I thought my eyes were deceiving me. Not un

Chapter: Chapter 125Brielle's POV" Relax. I'm not here for that."No soul? Then what? What would a demon be doing here if not to come and collect what he is owed? That is not really what concerns me at the moment. I want to survive. I can't leave yet." What do you want. Tell me!" I acted tough. I can't show that I am scared." Must you always think the worst of me? I came all the way here to help you," he said to me sounding a little offended.I couldn't make out whether he was serious or just pulling my leg for fun. Right now, I am desperate and I am afraid that what ever dispicable schemes that Kael came with, I might just fall for. But at this point, what could be worse than promising him my soul?I decided to hear him out. It's not like I have any other choice anyway." Fine. I'll listen to what you have to say. I warn you that I am not in a tolerant mood so this better be worth it."He snickered." I might be a demon from he but I'm not as bad as you think. No matter. We will have all the time in

Chapter: Chapter 1242 weeks laterBlake's POVI was sitting beside Brielle as she slept peacefully. It's been a very rough fortnight. Ever since that night, everything has been bleak. As the days go by without any change from her I get scared. The baby is fine but Brielle won't wake up. I am afraid that she might stay in such a state for a long time. What of our child. She might not get to see the baby be born. I was at a dead end in what to do. I blame myself. I should have tried with my all to stop her from performing that darned ceremony. It almost cost her life.For all those days, I refused to leave her side. Anything could happen and I don't want to be away. I stayed in the room all day and had my meals sent here. I made sure that it doesn't get suffocating. I opened the windows during the day and let fresh air come in during the day, I handle everything she needed and I wasn't comfortable with letting other people do it.I always made sure to talk to her hoping that she can hear me and hang on to

Chapter: Chapter 123Brielle's POVIt was now the moment we have been waiting for. This part of the ritual had to be done by me. Now that we have acquired the hell fire, it was time I do what I was meant to do so we can finally part ways with Julian and Xavier." Deceiving us was wrong, Kyra but I'll consider that you ultimately helped us in the end. Let us complete the final step and then all of us will then go our sepernt ways."" Thank you for understanding. I will find a way in the future to repay you."We went to another room with Julian and Xavier with us.I had the flame with me and it's still surreal that I went through such lengths to get it. I wasn't going to complain. My soul doesn't matter if it means that I get to keep my family safe and ensures that we do not suffer the same tragedy all of over again. No matter how had I tried, I couldn't bring myself to have faith in their word. It was my mistake back then. This is just Rte price to fix it." Alright. What do I need to do to get get this ov

Chapter: Chapter 193Felix refused to let go of Mercedes. He had been trying to spend some intimate time with his wife, but both their kids were making it impossible for them. Mercedes was always exhausted after handling them and getting them to sleep. Of course, he helped out, but things were not that easy. Horace would make a fuss not wanting to go to bed early and Celine would be crying wanting her mother to cuddle her to sleep. A moment of peace in the house became a luxury. Now that they had the chance, Felix wanted to make the most of it. “ No Felix. Just let me sleep. Your children will wake up at any moment now, and you know how they will get. If I don't eat now, I won't ever get to rest.”“ Plsase, my love. Just for a little while. It's been a while since you touched me. I feel like a celibate monk now, come on,” he whined playfully, making Mercedes laugh. “ Stop being a baby. Don't you think I'm going through the same thing? What can we do?”“ Alright. I will handle them both when they wake u

Chapter: Chapter 192It's been over 2 years of a wonderful and blissful marriage. Life has been peaceful and full of happiness. The dawn of darkness had fully blown over, and the realms were at peace and prospering. All the time, no one ever mentioned Drakoen's name. He was wiped out of existence completely and everything was fine. Mercedes had been feeling unwell for a while, and she had a suspicion of what could be wrong. So she bought a home test to verify her suspicion. Felix had been talking about making a little sister or brother for Horace. Speaking of him, he was a handful. Mercedes was having a hard time keeping up with him. Allison and Horace were attached to the hip and up to some mischief. So, Mercedes wanted Horace to grow up a little before she could have another baby. Even if she wanted that, if things didn't turn out the way she wanted and if now was the time she would have another baby, she wasn't complaining . She went into the bathroom to get the test done. Felix had noticed her stran

Chapter: Chapter 191Mercedes walked down a path of flowers, in her wedding dress and holding a bouquet of flowers in her hand. The pack members and a few friends from outside were invited to the wedding. As she walked, everyone gasped and murmured to themselves about her beauty and her beautiful dress. Mercedes was nervous as she walked forward, trying to conceal her trembling steps. All their eyes on her were making her nervous. The only thing that could calm her down was Felix, who was standing at the altar. She looked at him as she made her way towards him. Mercedes managed to calm down as she felt the world and everyone fade away. It was just Felix and her. The wind blew, and the birds chirped loudly in celebration of her wedding. Mercedes made it in front of Felix, and he took her hand and helped her stand beside him. Her eyes met his, and she smiled at him shyly. Felix was holding back from shedding tears of joy in front of everyone but his eyes were burning. He was astonished by how Angelic Merc

Chapter: Chapter 190Mercedes was staring at her engagement ring. The more she looked at it, she felt it was familiar, as if she had seen it somewhere. She tried to rack her brain to remember where she could have seen the ring. Nothing came to mind. She couldn't remember, and it bothered her a lot because she had a nagging feeling. When she lost hope and thought she should forget about it, it all came flooding back.It was a dream she had. In that dream, she was already married to Felix and they had two kids. Their son Horace and a daughter, Celine. The bane sounded familiar as well, but she couldn't remember who had the bane Celine before they named their daughter. Even though she didn't remember who the name belonged to, she felt that name was important and meaningful to her. How could the dream she had been so accurate? It could only mean that it was not a dream but a premonition she had about her future. Just the thought of such a future made a smile spread across her face. She placed her hand on her

Chapter: Chapter 189The sunlight spilled into the room, piercing Mercedes's eyes. She groaned and opened her eyes. She tried to cover her eyes and something on her hand shone through the sunlight. Mercedes squinted her eyes as she tried to see what it was. Once her vision was better, she saw the princess diamond cut ring on her finger. A smile spread on her face as everything from the previous night flooded her mind. The date, fireworks, proposal, the passionate night. She bit her lip as she clearly remembered the events that occurred. It was not a dream after all. She didn't feel sleepy anymore. Felix was sleeping soundly beside her, his grip loose on her waist, so she was able to sit up on the bed, pulling the sheets to cover her chest. She stretched out her hand in front of her, admiring the diamond in her finger. Her heart swelled with happiness. She couldn't believe that her dreams were coming true and all the troubles were behind her. The man of her dreams was right next to her. Mercedes was so h

Chapter: Chapter 188The staff members who were aware of Felix's proposal were watching as he proposed. They surrounded Felix and Mercedes, cheering and applauded the couple's successful engagement. Mercedes hid her face in Felix's chest, flustered by all the attention that was on her. Felix held her close, brimming with joy. They congratulated them, sharing in their joy. “ Congratulations to both of you. The manager would like to extend congratulations on behalf of the hotel and has upgraded your room from the presidential suite to honeymoon suite. Please accept it as a token of our appreciation. We hope that you will enjoy your stay in our hotel.” Both of them looked at each other in surprise. They smiled and accepted well-wishes from the staff. “ My fiancé and I would like to thank you. That is very generous of you. It means a lot to us, and we are looking forward to our stay.”Felix smiled, his eyes shining with gratitude.

Chapter: Chapter 13Benedicta's POV I could not believe that I caught the attention of my best friend's brother. What an awkward position to be in. He kept looking at me the whole time he could set his sight on me. I thought if I avert my eyes he would just end up giving up. I learned that rich men like him don't like girls who play hard to get. So planned to act exactly that way but to no avail. It went downhill. I started to feel uncomfortable and embarrassed because for God's sake, he is Alexis's brother and I was not interested in all of him. I mean yes he is drop-dead gorgeous, and every girl's fantasy evidently by the not-so-discreet stares from the ladies. He is not your average guy at all. I am starting to regret my acceptance to come to this party. I'm simply I too admit that he affected me in more ways than one but those are feelings I can not act on. And it's because my tight-knit relationship with his sister and his sudden interest in me does not make it easy at all. Romantic relationshi

Chapter: Chapter 12Theron's POV After the encounter with my sister, Aaron, and her friend, Benedicta I went away to prepare for my speech. I am prepared but just to do last-minute touch-ups. Why do I even bother because I will end up improvising when the words float in my mind. Now I think it will be a little difficult since my mind cannot falter from a certain beauty. I hope I don't lose my words when I see her. " Sir, here is the speech you asked me to read," Melanie told me handing me the piece of paper with lengthy words. Suddenly I found myself not interested in all this. For the first time, I wanted to run from here and go to Benedicta. I wanted to get to know her. Why is this happening to me? I can't understand a thing as this has never happened that I got so interested in a girl. " Sir sir..." I heard the faint voice of Melanie. " Sir!" It was loud enough to pull me out of the daze I was in. " Yes?" " Are you ready sir? We are about to begin," she informed me and I looked at the paper and bac

Chapter: Chapter 11Mercy's POV Alexis and I were already ready. I was nervous about everything but I must say I love the way I look. The complete look was magnificent. I never thought I would look this way ever. I looked like one of those cover girls in the magazines. My hair was tied into a messy bun with some strands loosely hanging. The dress perfectly fit my body and I wore T-strap black pumps on my feet. The jewelry I had on was pearl teardrop earrings and a gold pendant necklace. Nice and simple, not something flashy." You like it huh?" Alexis asked behind me. I was standing in front of the mirror in her room. I smiled. " Yes, I do." I ran my hands on the fabric of the dress in admiration. I feel beautiful for once in my life. She came to me and placed her hands on my shoulders. " Well, the dress is yours and you can put it on anytime. I can even buy you," suggested and I shook my head in denial. " No Alexis. Don't even think about it. You have done more than enough for me. And this dress will j

Chapter: Chapter 10Theron's POV The day of the event was finally here. This is the day I officially put Twilight on the map. Another success to celebrate. Many of my past lovers have been calling nonstop to accompany me to the event but I turned them all down. I don't want any drama tonight so I decided to just go alone. " Man, are you seriously going alone to the party?" Aaron asked in disbelief. I rolled my eyes at him for the millionth time. He has been in my office all morning pestering me about Alexis. As always he wants to make me the middle man in their issues. " Yes, Aaron. I don't see anything wrong with it," I stated shrugging my arms and leaning back on my chair. " Alright fine but can you tell me who is coming with Alexis? Who is her date?" He was anxious and on the urge of his seat. " I don't know Aaron. Why don't you ask her yourself?" " Come on man. You know how she despises me and she won't pick up any of my calls. She even threatened that If we were to come to her apartment she get a

Chapter: Chapter 9 Benedicta's POV The hotel was buzzing with the final preparations for the opening ball. Well, it has been open for a while but the ball is a formal opening and exposure event to attract more guests. But I can confidently say that this hotel does not need exposure because guests keep piling up and the hotel rooms are fully booked. All I can say is that the decor is exquisite and breathtaking. I have never seen such beautiful grandeur before and I know the event will be a great success. It has to be with all the effort put into it. I almost envy these rich folk. Work was too much today so I decided to go back home as soon as knocked off. Deep down I was hoping to see that man. I know that I should not be but I could not help it at all. I don't know how to explain it all but it is what it is. I got home and I threw myself straight on the couch to take a nap. Alexis is going to come home late because she is going to a gallery event. Times like these can get lonely. I hardly ever see her

Chapter: Chapter 8 Theron's POV " Are the arrangements for the ball going as planned?" I asked my personal assistant who is in charge of overseeing the matter. " Yes sir. Everything is almost ready. There is nothing to worry about," she affirmed. I nodded my head in satisfaction. I like it when things go as planned. I don't like any imperfections in my work because it sends the wrong message. The ball is a function that I organize for the successful opening of each of my chains of hotels around the world. Although I can't be everywhere so have trusted people assigned to manage my affairs. Ever since my father died and the responsibilities of the business fell upon me I have always strived to grow the business to new heights. My father's legacy and my own. My thoughts were interrupted by a screechy annoying voice. " Hello, my love!" I snapped my eyes to the culprit. I swear to God she never gets a hint. But I also have my mother to blame for her actions. She has been encouraging Sarah to pursue me so t

Chapter: Chapter 17Iris’s POV Well, isn't this just great? I remember my father rushing us over here thinking that we were late, but it seemed like we were early instead. The groom was nowhere to be found and so was his father. My father panicked thinking that the wedding was called off. He tried to call James Harrison, but he didn't pick up his phone. The situation seemed hopeless because we couldn't find out anything from anyone. That was until James's sidepiece came along with her annoying voice. My father leaped from his chair at the sight of her. I rolled my eyes and remained seated. I honestly wanted to be anywhere else but here. “ Hello Miss Victoria. I am so glad to see you,” father said with a smile on his face, but you could clearly see how nervous he was. “ Oh, Mr Hart. It's you. It's good that you guys are here, but unfortunately, it seems that you might have to go back with your daughter,” she said with a sly smirk on her face. She clearly was enjoying herself at the expense of our embar

Chapter: Chapter 16Julian’s POV It was supposed to be just one drink, but as soon as I started I couldn't stop. I almost drank half of the bottle of whiskey, and it still couldn't do anything for my nerves. I didn't even know what time it was until I heard footsteps approaching me. I turned to see my eerily calm father walking towards me. “ Do you know what time it is, son?”“ What are you doing here? I said I'll come on my own,” I slurred, already drunk. “ I can see that you are ready to leave at any moment now,” he replied sarcastically. He walked over to me and snatched the glass from my hand and slammed it on the counter. Even though his face was cold, I could see the fire of anger blazing in his eyes. “ I had to come all the way here because I somehow had a hunch that you would pull something like this. By now, you should have been at the courthouse but here you are drinking,” he scolded in annoyance. I winced. Just hearing him speak made my head hurt. I was feeling light-headed as the alcohol

Chapter: Chapter 15"There!” my mom exclaimed, standing behind me with an approving and proud smile on her face. Her eyes sparkled as she looked at me through the mirror. Her happiness was slightly rubbing off on me. I liked what I was seeing as well. Thanks to my mom's efforts, I looked different from how I normally looked. A princess was what looked and felt like. My heart was beating fast in my chest and all sorts of emotions were going through me. I was dressed and ready to leave. This was supposed to be the best day of my life, but it's not. Neither am I marrying the man I love, so how was I supposed to truly feel? A little happy, sad, distraught, I couldn't settle on a feeling, so I decided to focus on how I looked instead. I felt good about how I looked. I was beautiful and I was happy about that. " Oh, darling!" my mom said and sniffled, teary-eyed. She was barely holding those tears in. " You look so beautiful, my child. I wish you could see yourself through my eyes. You look like a fairy.

Chapter: Chapter 14Iris's POVSo, in 3 days I will be Mrs Harrison. I have been having sleepless nights because of the thought of being someone's wife. The nerves were eating me up, and I couldn't eat or sleep properly. I was anxious, and I kept asking myself if this was a sacrifice that I was willing to make. My life was going to change, and I wasn't sure that I was prepared for that kind of change. It's an arranged marriage, and I am sure as hell that between us, there are no feelings. I mean, sure, I found Julian very attractive and my heart skipped a beat, but that's about it. I don't know much about marriage, but I know that a lot more than attraction goes into it. We only met once and that was not enough to suss out what kind of man he was. I know nothing beyond his name and family background. He has a spotless reputation and has never been embroiled in any kind of scandal. He has a spotless image, but that doesn't mean if there is nothing bad about him in the media, he is a good guy.

Chapter: Chapter 13Meghan’s POV Since the day I pretended to be hurt when Julian told me he was getting married, and I asked him for a few days to myself, I've been spending time with Kaden. I must thank Julian because, thanks to him, I was able to be with the man I love, and it's been a whole week. I don't know what's going on with Kaden, but he was acting unusual, though I wasn't complaining because I had him all to myself. I thought that he would try to get me to go back to Julian, but he didn't say anything. Not until now. That was because of the texts and calls that I have been getting from Julian. I tried to keep my phone on silent but Kaden ended up seeing the messages he sent me. Now everything has changed once again. He turned cold and distant and I couldn't read what is going on in his mind. “ I think you should go back, Meghan. A week has been more than enough to keep him on his toes,” his voice was flat. “ No, Kaden. I don't want to go back now. You don't need to worry about it. I have g

Chapter: Chapter 12Julian’s POV The day of my wedding was approaching. I was nervous. I never get nervous and it was bothering me. But what was bothering me even more than that was that the one I was going to marry was not the one I love. Thanks to my father for making things difficult for me, I'm now stuck with someone I don't love for God knows how long. The thought of it was torture. Despite our relationship being strictly business, I would not be able to act like a free man anymore. I will be a married man, so I won't get to see Meghan as much as I would like to. For both our reputations sake and the business, I can't cause any scandal, much less a cheating scandal. Meghan and I will have to lie low for a while before we can see each other. I know that my father will give the media the scoop, so my new wife and I will be all over the papers and TV for a few weeks. I would have preferred to have a secret wedding, no fuss, but none of it is in my control. I will just have to endure the torture for a
