Brian was a man of many talents, one of which I was lucky enough to find out fully.I wondered why this man was even single in the first place. He was handsome, rich, and very talented on the sheets.“You have been ogling at me for a while; do you want too much of me or something?” Brian said teasingly.“I was just wondering?” he gave me a look, waiting for me to voice out my thoughts.“Why are you single?” I ask curiously, and he lets out a soft chuckle.“You, of many people, would know why,” he said, “you were my therapist for three years.”Well, yes, he had irrational fears of being a terrible partner or, better yet, being too obsessive, but he was not obsessive.He was very attentive, and he respected my boundaries very well, and he knew the importance of consent.The problem we have been tackling for over three years seems like a non-issue now that I can see his dating style. “Well, I don’t think any of the problems you came to see me for are a problem now; you have even gained

Though she was angry at Miles, to conceal their involvement with each other, Trisha had to console me while I acted angrily.“Oh…. Come on, you are in an open relationship, why are you acting all sad?” Amina taunted arrogantly.“No…. I…... Ellie, I am so sorry,” Miles said frantically.“Don’t you dare start with your sob stories, you promised me, Miles, you promised you would not bring anyone back to our apartment.” My acting was quite promising.“I am sorry, Ellie, it will not happen again,” he angrily glared at Amina, who was getting ready to make yet another arrogant statement.She quickly bowed her head and apologized pitifully, “I am sorry, it was my fault, it will never happen again.”“You think that sorry excuse for an apology will work? You trifling little vixen,” Trisha finally burst, attacking Amina.“I…... I can't do this,” I said, ignoring the brawl and running out of the apartment.Miles tried running after me, but Amina pulled him back, screaming at him to help her.Bria

The week was quite entertaining. Trisha was monitoring Miles’ every move; he didn’t have time to galivant with his concubines, so he was well-behaved.Which didn’t bother me because Brian had been busy, so this was enough to entertain me for now.“Trish, you are here again,” I said, amused. She looked a bit uncomfortable. She had been waiting for Miles outside our apartment for over an hour.I had told both her and Miles that I would be late, and they seemed to have both used this as an opening for their affair.But it seems they both made a miscalculation, because soon, Miles would be walking through that door with his beloved.“Come in, Trish,” I said, unlocking the door, “we haven’t talked in a while; my work has been keeping me too busy.”Though uncomfortable, she managed a bitter smile and followed me in. I had happily sat with her on our couch and pried about her life.“So, what brought you here so early?” I asked nosily, “You know I was supposed to end work late; you wouldn’t h

After our kiss, things seemed to have shifted, mostly in me. I saw this as an opportunity to have fun.I was not open to anything more than traveling with him and some fun dates.But the kiss left me longing for more. I wanted more than just to travel and kiss.But Brian remained respectful, apart from occasionally making out with me; he didn’t ask for much.The whole trip was refreshing and fun. I got to watch Trisha break down while enjoying massages and expensive wines.I returned to the apartment the day before Miles, who returned on Tuesday. He seemed excited when he came back, like he just had the time of his life.“You seem excited. Was the business trip that fun?” I asked mockingly.He was flustered for a while, guilt washing over his face, which was turning white.“Relax, I am not opposed to the fun you might have had; we are in an open relationship, remember,” I said with a smirk, “I am glad you're no longer depressed.”Before he could respond, a loud bang on the door sounde

Brian was very relentless in his pursuit; he would send flowers every day and take me on a date every day after work.The very week I started going on dates with Brian, Miles went on a business trip. That trip was a very fun trip for me.Because it was the trip where Trisha saw a different side of Miles, with my investigation, I discovered that Trisha didn’t know about Miles’ other conquest.She had been blindly sneaking around with this man, ready to ruin our friendship because she thought he loved her so much.Brian had taken me to a resort out of town when I received a frantic call from Trisha.“Ellie, are you not home? "I have been knocking for a while now,” she said, trying her best not to sound panicked, but I could see her pacing around foolishly on the doorbell camera.“No, I have been out of town for a while,” I said unamusedly, “sorry I forgot to tell you, is everything okay?”“No, nothing is okay,” she said. I saw her type something on her phone, and soon, multiple images g

He had driven me around, telling me stories, fun stories. He was not as nosy as he was this morning, which made me feel comfortable.“You are not prying?”“I don’t want to scare you off. You are going through a lot, and even if I don’t understand the hurt, I want to be there for you.”“You don’t have to be there for me, Mr. Beckett, you are….”“Your patient? Me?” he said, “I requested a transfer.”“What? Why would you do that? Did I do something to make you want to change therapists?”He stopped the car at a red light and looked at me, “I want you, and I hate that you are using the fact that you're my therapist to stop me from pursuing you. I am going to pursue you now, and you will not have a single excuse.”His words made a proud therapist, because they proved it was working; he was not afraid to pursue someone because he feared that he would be deemed as creepy.I just feared he was pursuing the wrong person. “You could get any woman you want, Brian. Don’t sell yourself short.”“Is

[Third person POV] “Father, I…. I am sorry I met my biological grandmother, and he told me about….” “Shut up Kaiden,” Zoey says angrily, “how dare you meet that man.” The boys were confused by Zoey and their father’s reaction, they felt a chill down their spine as their father glared at both of them. “Father?” Kaiden says, “I am sorry, I know you love mother, and her cheating is……” “Who is cheating?” their mother asks in a drowsy voice. “No one, go back to sleep I will discipline the boys,” their father says angrily. “Father, I think it is better to just tell them the truth,” Zoey says. “What truth? What are you talking about?” their mother asked. “Kaiden decided to meet Ellen Mule,” their father says in a growl. They had never felt so sacred, it was clear they knew about Ellen Mule and his family, it was clear they knew Kaiden was not a Beckett. But what hurt more was how their mother looked at them with fear, how tears started rolling down her eyes and how her legs gave o

[Third person POV] Kai was very uneasy, with the way Kaiden was acting, their parents probably had a good reason to not tell them about this. Well at least he hoped, he felt like his brother was making a premature decision with this. But Kai didn’t want to decide for Kaiden either, he didn’t even know how Kaiden was supposed to feel. Meanwhile the two women kept giggling as Kaiden was transferring money to them, it made Kai’s skin crawl because it felt like they were just using him. “Okay, now let us go rescue your father,” Crystal says happily, Kaiden frowned. “No, I will contact you soon, I need time to think,” Kaiden says making Kai heave a sigh of relief, at least he was not being reckless. “Oh… why is that?” Layla asked confused, “are you having second thoughts?” Kaiden looked at them deflated, he felt like these two women wanted to suck all his energy dry, he would have not mind helping free his father if everything didn’t seem too suspicious. “I want to think about it,

[Third person POV]Kaiden Beckett alre4ady known as the next CEO of Beckett Inc, and still with all the pressure the media and everyone has been putting on him since Zoey left for Italy instead of preparing to take over the company.It was clear who was going to be the CEO now, he was going to start an internship at his father’s company after the end of this year, before going to business school.Kai in the other hand was in the school basketball team, he was doing great, one would say he was the star of the team.He graduated high school valedictorian and his parents had been proud, Zoey couldn’t make it to the graduation, but she sent him a gift to commemorate his graduation.He started with the internship later that week, it was a bit challenging than he had hoped but he enjoyed every new lesson he learned.He decided to take a year working for his father before he goes to business school.One day he got a call from an anonymous number, he ignored the call many times but it just ke

[Third POV] Palma’s plan was very simple, to make Zoey embarrass herself at the party so everyone can hate and bully her. she already knew a few girls that hated her. Palma’s plan was simple, she was to have her team create an environment that was easy to humiliate Zoey, and after that she would be the new queen Bee. Meanwhile, Zoey’s parents were happy that she was finally going out, the boys had already started doing sleepovers with their friends whilst Zoey just preferred being with her grandmother, it was as if she knew their time was limited. “It is okay honey, you are 18 already, you can go to the party,” her mother says happily. “Yeah, it will help you relax,” her father reassured, “how about I take you shopping for the party?” With the help of her father and her friend Palma, Zoey was able to prepare for the party, it was her first party and she hoped it went well. Nathan’s home was quite beautiful, she liked the way he had decorated the home for the party. “This is n

[Third POV] Zoey Beckett, though she is the daughter of two of the most prominent figures in the country, she had never felt like truly a Beckett. She wasn’t as artistic as her mother, she did appreciate art, but a different form of art. She didn’t want to be a successor of her father too, yes, she was her father’s child, but she always felt like the family company was better suited for Kaiden, who was interested in the company. Kai was not really interested in the company, maybe it was because of the trauma he experienced 5 years ago, but he changed. She had hoped he would be a bit interested in long life and having fun, but he had become very dim. And now he she is contemplating if she should choose art school or business school, she knows her father would be like, “choose whatever you like’ but what she likes is not even on the roster. And the teachers could be so judgmental, they already have the mentality that given she is the oldest she will inherit the company, it makes h

[Third POV]Wayne had run straight home, he found both Kai’s parents’ home, luckily, he had briefed them on the possible of human trafficking, bother Clayton and Kaleah had decided to drive to where Kai was to help him.On their way there they had called the police, it was quite a busy time, there were police cars everywhere when they arrived.Wayne felt scared as he saw the little girl covered in blood crying, and there was a body covered the same location he left Kai.“Kai…...” he says scared, the police line had halted them from going further, but Clayton soon found a police officer to find out what was going on, only to find his son in handcuffs, covered in blood.“Father?” Kai says in a scared voice, “I didn’t mean…... It was a mistake; I didn’t mean to.”“Hey…” Clayton says trying to get to his son, but h was stopped by a police officer.“Sir, you are not allowed anywhere near the suspect,” the police officer says, getting attention from both Wayne and Kaleah.“What……” Kaleah sa

[Fiona’s POV]Going back to the place where all this madness all happened felt surreal. “We are here!” Selby screams, rushing to the deck.After everything was resolved, Heath suggested that we start having cruises every year, and after much back and forth, we all agreed in the end.It was a good way to refresh ourselves, and though our schedules had been crazy, the day was finally agreed upon.Selby and her husband were already drinking with each other under the table as we arrived. Clover was giggling away, happy that this time around she got to drink along.“You have been having non-alcoholic beverages for a while now, Fiona. What is wrong?” Gian says, shocking everyone.I couldn’t help but smile, since this time around I am the one expecting, “pregnant women don’t drink Gian,” Heath smugly says.“This calls for a double celebration,” Selby shouts, “keep the drinks coming, I will be drinking double for me and my pregnant friend.”The trip was amazing, excluding the stupid morning s

[Fiona’s POV]‘Why is Heath’s Mom kidnapping me?’ Is what kept running in my mind is this one of those stay away from my son’s tactics.‘If she offers a reasonable sum I might consider’ I thought, but soon I remembered that the lady doesn’t have a cent on her, making me more curious.‘Why is she kidnapping me?’But the answers are soon answered when a familiar voice graces my ears when we arrive at the location.“Did anyone see you?” Esther asks frantic.“No, of course not,” Heath’s mother answers.I am sure Heath is already at her tail, so it doesn’t seem half as dangerous to be here, matter of fact I will be settling the score soon.Esther kicks the bag I was put in, “finally I have got you.”But they were in for a rude awakening, she had been quite fortunate that all those other situations she used tactics, because this time she will be facing a woman who was raised by a military dad.She opens the luggage, and I can finally breathe, we lock eyes before a punch land on her face and

[Heath’s POV]We are not getting married just yet, famous last words, her beautiful eyes glare at me and the only thing I could think of is our new lives as newlyweds.Because yes, we did get married in Vegas, “oh lord, they are going to kill us.” Fiona grumbles.The phone rings for the umpteenth time, must be our friends. I can feel their anxiety and anger even before even answering the phone.“We have to answer that,” I say cautiously, getting married in Vegas wasn’t really my plan, but I wasn’t against it, but Fiona on the other hand was not ready to get tied up, untraditionally at that.“I know Heath,” she sighs before watching the video us getting married again.“We could divorce you know.”“That is not my problem Heath,” Fiona says, “my problem is that she is here.”“Whose here?”I say glancing at the phone, finally noticing Esther’s angry face behind our drunk cheers.How was she able to get here, where is she now, is she watching us?This was the spook I wasn’t expecting, imme

[Fiona’s POV]People around ran to help me up, while I saw this woman look at me before grinning, pulling away from the hug.“Oh… sorry, I didn’t mean to do that, you are rather weak,” she teases before laughing mockingly.“Who the f*ck are you and what the hell did you do to my girlfriend?” Heath seethes, balling his fists angrily.She is definitely not expecting this reaction out of him, because she jumps back terrified.“Heath, it is me, Mimi, you can’t say you forgot me,” she reasons, “I…. I was just so excited to see you. I didn’t mean to hurt her.”“Mimi from where? I don’t know any Mimi,” Heath says, “and please refrain from manhandling me again or there will be hell. A matter of fact, I am surprised you are still alive after hurting my girlfriend.”I chuckled evilly, Heath had a past. I knew that when I met him, but his past had nothing to do with me, so this woman had no right to try and bully me.“Can we not waste our energy darling, I was about to win,” I teased, not paying

[Fiona’s POV]Gabriel really did a good job picking this hotel. It was homely, the elderly couple that greeted us at the reception and everyone who showed us to our room.They were both friendly and welcoming, and it made me happy.“This place is cool,” I say happily looking around, it was not a five-star hotel.It was a few stories, built with every architectural care needed.“Yes, it is,” he says, his face is clearly genuine, it might not be a five-star golden heights, but it is enough for me.I am still in awe of ho protective Dean had acted, the way he stood up for me really turned me on.“I will never get over of seeing you stand for me,” I tell him, he grins.“Well, I will always stand up for my woman, because she is the best,” he giggles before taking my lips.He mumbles something under our kiss, but I am too engulfed in the dirty thoughts of him inside me to even care.Taking a chance with Heath Duncan was the best idea ever. This is the best vacation ever.“Ugh……. Not this ag

Good dayThank you so much for supporting me up until now. Writing this I learned a lot of things. Walking this long journey with me, through writer's block, broken laptop, restoring every story from scratch and all, I am happy that we are able to see Dean and Avisa's stor conclude. Thank you for the support and constructive feedback.Regards, MonarchTheFirst.

[Ophelia’s POV]The war had taken so much from us, but it also gave us a lot of lessons. When Avisa told me that she would be stepping down, I was not surprised at all.Avisa was not one to aspire to lead. For some reason, I felt like she had planned this all along. From the first day she declared that I was not just her second hand, I was her sister.She was going to give me the throne, and her leaving to see the world didn’t surprise me either. We had only lived in a secluded area of the sea, and Avisa was naturally curious. She wanted to see more than just the sea corals.“Your highness, someone is here to see you,” taking over as crown princess was not as challenging as Avisa had somewhat trained me to be so.Having to boss around Aran was just an icing on the cake, but the problem lies in him, the man that couldn’t stop visiting.“Your highness,” said Arnoux Crescent, the man who used his positi

[Avisa’s POV]The war was surely turning out to be too much. I could feel fatigued from the hours of fighting. I didn’t know when it would end, but I wanted it to end positively. I had seen them almost take my best friend and slash my father’s face.We fought a formidable opponent, and the cause of it all, the cause of Penelope Stoker, she had caused it all.I wanted her head, the head of the woman who took my mother, the woman who turned my mate into a sob story.She needed to be taken down, and maybe in my pursuit I got distracted. My father and Ophelia’s screams in union jolts me awake to a vampire behind me attacking me.It is Jordan’s stoker that takes the attack head on, taking all the damage. Dean immediately secures my back as Penelope is attacking me as well.I felt dazed, it seemed Mr. Stoker was taking his last breath, “Focus Avisa!" Dean screamed at me.“Your…... your father

[Ophelia’s POV]My aim was one thing: I had told Avisa already what I wanted, to kill my mother, for killing my father because of her insecurities.I wanted to see her face when I, the daughter she was so ashamed of her, killed her. I wanted to see her eyes when I disappointed her just when she took her last breath.I hated how she was rescued; they should have left her there so she could suffer, but at least she was helping us take care of the enemy.Getting closer to her was quite hard, but soon I was face to face with the woman that gave birth to me.“How does it feel, mother? Do you feel dumb now?” she clearly was not swallowing her pride because she attacked me as I spoke.But she was already weakened, and her slaps were very weak. Her nails couldn’t even scrape me.“This is what you get for being so stupid,” I repeated the words she had told me repeatedly when she would beat me up after Avisa

[Dean’s POV]The war started as quickly as Penelope arrived. We were clearly outnumbered, but one this is for sure they underestimated my little Avisa, because half of the vampires were charging. We were stopped by one scream from my Avisa alone.“What is that?” Arnoux said, pointing to a machine drawing blood, with someone hooked in the middle.“My mother,” Ophelia says, appearing next to him. He seemed startled when he saw her. “How pathetic, she probably thought they would treat her like a queen. Now she is just an endless blood supply. Kill her first.”Ophelia’s command comes as a shock to most. If that was her mother, why would she want her dead? She clearly looked at me, sensing my judgement.“What, she has already chosen her side? We need to stop more vampires from powering up, so she needs to be taken out.” She was firm and decisive, clearly not playing like a perfect daughter at a

[Avisa’s POV]In many tales of the first blood that she had read, and in all of them, her ancestors ended up in humiliation. If it was not for the sun and the sea, they wouldn’t have survived.This time she needs to change the reign, they need to end up victorious, they need to show the fury of a siren.“You look ready,” her father’s voice jolts her awake, “my daughter, whatever happens today, I will protect you and see to it that you survive.”He hugged her before giving her a kiss on the forehead. The best warriors of the sea were gathered. As confident as I was, I still fear the unknown.“Father,” I said softly, “I don’t want the throne.”Bold words to say before a war, but I felt like, with the ambiguity of this war, I needed to let my father know that I really had no dream of being a successor.He giggles softly, “I know, and I am okay with it. I made p
