Chapter: Final chapter. "Oh my God! You have absolutely no idea how long I've been waiting to hear those words from you Adena. Thank you so much! You don't know how happy you've made me" Logan exclaimed, and just like a child, he rested his head on her chest again, and she cuddled him."I've been keeping it in for a long time. It feels good to finally let it out" she sighed."I promise, I won't let you regret loving me. I'll make up for everything I did to you and.."Adena had to interrupt him."You don't have to make up for anything. I've forgotten about all that, at least I'm ready to forget. Let's just focus on what's ahead and let go of the past. The past should not determine our future" she stated, caressing his thick hair."I'm the luckiest man alive aren't I? You're such a blessing. I love you Adena" he said and a tear dropped from her eye."I love you too Logan. I really do" she said and it was music to his ears. He could listen to her say those three magical words to her all day long and never get

Chapter: Chapter forty-nine Seven Months Later…."Here is your soup, hot and spicy, just the way you like it" Antoinette giggled, dropping the tray in front of Adena. "Stop it. You know I hate this soup" she whined, squeezing her face. The aroma from the soup always made her feel like throwing up. It had a lot of herbs in it and Liliana insisted that she must take it every morning.Adena was close to labour, it's her ninth month and she could start getting contractions any minute. Since she was still very young, Liliana prepared some local herbs to help her, not forgetting frequent hospital check ups."Drink up and stop complaining. You know it's for your own good" Antoinette said, flipping back her hair."Is she being stubborn again?" Logan came out from the bathroom, wrapped in his robe."Yes. She won't take the soup" Antoinette answered and Adena glared at her."No worries, I'll make her take it. You can go ahead and do other things" he said and Antoinette nodded before sticking her tongue out at Adena and

Chapter: Chapter forty-eight"What?""Yes Adena. I am in love with you.. there, I said it" Logan fell back into the chair and breathed out loudly. Adena stared at him, awestruck. She never expected him to be in love with her, she thought he was only being nice because of the baby in her womb, little did she know that he had such feelings for her."Look, I know you're surprised. I honestly don't expect you to say anything to me right now. It's fine. I know you hate me, it's fine too. I just wanted you to know how I feel about you" Logan said, hurt by his own words.. she hates him."I.. I don't hate you" Adena mumbled."You treated me really badly, but it's not your fault. It's mine. I have only known pain ever since I was born" she paused, glanced at him and sniffed back the tears that were threatening to fall."My parents died in an accident after my birth. We were on our way back home from the hospital when the accident happened, I miraculously survived. Then, my uncle took me in, and maltreated me before selli

Chapter: Chapter forty-seven"Hi Tyson!!" Antoinette squealed on seeing Tyson. She gave him a little hug and returned to stand next to Adena."You're back? I did not expect to see you back so soon" she continued."My sister is getting married in a few weeks. I had to come back" Tyson answered, but his eyes were on Adena. Antoinette noticed this and became worried. Telling him about the pregnancy would be the best option, because if he found out in a bad way, it'll mean the worst. He might turn against Logan again."Adena, you've got to tell him" she whispered. Adena sighed and signalled her to keep quiet."Is there a problem? You two are acting weird. Aren't you happy to see me?" Tyson asked."No there's no problem. Um.. I have to talk to you about something" Adena said, scratching her arm. "What is that?" He asked.She bit her lip and wondered what his reaction would be. It's only right for her to tell him. She didn't want him to waste his time loving her, when she can never belong to him. She's having a child

Chapter: Chapter forty-six"So what are you going to name the baby when it's born?" Antoinette asked, expertly cutting onions into a pot of soup."Really? The pregnancy is barely two months old and you're talking about a name?" Adena questioned, watching her cut the onions."Oh please! If it's a boy, we'll call him Jasper" Antoinette beamed, ignoring what Adena had said earlier."Seriously? Why Jasper?" Adena asked."Because I've always wanted a baby brother, called Jasper" she giggled."And if it's a girl?" Adena was curious."Then we'll call her Lena.. Logan plus Adena makes Lena!" Antoinette shrieked and Adena couldn't help but laugh."Sounds nice though. Let's wait until it's born" she stated and Antoinette nodded."I'm going to get some sleep. I'll check on you later" she said, walking out of the kitchen."You're always sleeping. Lazy pregnant woman" Antoinette stuck out her tongue and Adena giggled before leaving for her room."Lena.." Adena repeated, laying on the bed. She touched her tummy and closed he

Chapter: Chapter forty-fiveLogan felt a tap on his arm and that woke him from his sleep. He sat up and rubbed his eyes sleepily."Logan.." Adena's voice rang out in the dark night. She stared at him, pouting."What's the matter? Is everything okay?" Logan asked, looking at her with worry. She sighed and nodded."Yes I'm fine. I just.. um.." she bit her lip and sighed."What is it? Tell me" Logan urged."I want mango" she spoke."Mango?" He raised his brow."Yes, unripe mango. I'm seriously craving one right now" she sighed and slumped into the bed."Are you serious?" Logan asked, confused."Where on earth am I going to find unripe mangoes by this time of the night?" He asked, still in awe."It's mango season! Mangoes are everywhere" Adena scoffed."But it's two in the morning" Logan argued. Adena pouted."It's okay then, forget about it" she said and covered herself with the blanket. She was angry and disappointed. She had been craving mangoes all night and didn't know how to tell Logan about it."Are you upset

Chapter: Wounded DonNicholas swung into action immediately, racing through the raining bullets to get to Leo who had been fatally shot and bleeding on the floor. His eyes were wide open, his face showed no signs of pain, his eyes cold. “Protect the goods.” Leo muttered, struggling to speak. Nicholas quickly ordered the others to follow Martinez’s men who were already running towards the loaded shipment.Nando and Nicholas were left alone to defend Leo, shooting at the men who were viciously firing at them. They managed to pull Leo's limp body behind a shed, and then they finished off a few of Martinez's men.When the other back up entered, Martinez knew it was time to leave, but he was satisfied that he got to shoot Leo, believing that he would be dead soon. He called off his men immediately, and they retreated. “Fucking asshole! It's too easy.” Martinez scoffed before turning around. He went back to his car, shielded by his men and drove off. His men followed suit, leaving the DeLuna clan members alon

Chapter: The mission “Nothing is going on, believe me master.” Eleonora bowed her head again, avoiding eye contact at all costs. Staring at Leo for too long might cause her to burst into tears and that would further complicate issues. She did not want to be the reason why two brothers would turn against each other or get into an endless brawl for the rest of their lives. Leonardo didn't want anything to do with her anymore, but she was aware of how possessive men could get even with things they considered useless to them.“Nothing?” Leo raised his brow.“Yes master.” Leo didn't say anything after that, he simply turned around and left the room, asking Frederico to come with him. As soon as they left the room, Leo faced his cousin with a deadly glare.“What was that?” “I don't understand Leo. What are you talking about?” Frederico seemed confused but Leo scoffed.“You must think that I'm stupid, little brother. Don't mistake my silence for ignorance.” Leo huffed. “Why are you sexually harassing my slave

Chapter: Caught.“I'm sorry.” Eleonora mumbled, getting back on her feet. She refused to look up at Leo, his words still resonating in her head. What did he even mean?“It's fine. Leave.” Leo turned and started walking away. Anna-Marie did not leave with him, rather, she stood there with Eleonora, her face red with anger.Eleonora was uncomfortable, she didn't like Anna-Marie's gaze on her so she tried to walk away.“Where do you think you're going? You cheap slut.” Anna-Marie fired all of a sudden and Eleonora looked up at her with furrowed brows. How dare she call her a slut? “Mistress, I would appreciate it if you didn't call me that again.” She said, trying to sound as polite as possible but Anna-Marie laughed.“And what are you going to do if I call you a cheap slut? Isn't that what you are? You think I don't see how you shamelessly throw yourself at Leo? Do you really think he'll notice you?” Anna-Marie scoffed, boiling in rage. “You better stay away from him, or I'm going to make sure you pay

Chapter: Her eyes.Seething, Anna-Marie stormed out of their presence, mumbling inaudible words to herself until she was out of sight. Eleonora realized that she had been holding Leo all this while and quickly let go, lowering her head as he turned to face her.“She asked you not to come back in here, didn't she?” His voice echoed, sending chills down her spine. She struggled to find her words, her eyes wandering nervously.“I hate it when I have to repeat myself.” He almost yelled, getting irritated and she startled.“I'm sorry.. she did.” She responded quickly.“Then why did you disobey her?” “I.. I was just worried about you. After what happened that night, I…”“Nothing happened that night!” He barked at her and she flinched, letting out a squeal as she had not expected him to raise his voice so suddenly. She glanced up at him but his deadly glare forced her to look away again, shaking from fear.“I don't want to hear you utter another word about that night! And don't you ever..! Don't you ever thin

Chapter: Disobedience.“Here's your food uncle.” Eleonora smiled sweetly, setting down the tray of food in front of Pablo DeLuna who was equally smiling at her.He was an old man in his late sixties, a wise man who the clan looks up to. Being Leo's only surviving uncle and Frederico's father, he was highly respected and valued in the clan.“Your medicine is ready too. When you're done eating, I'll give it to you.” She added and he nodded his head.“Thank you.” “Do you need anything else?” “I don't. But my dear, there is something awfully familiar about you.” Pablo said, squinting his eyes as he stared at Eleonora. Her eyes wandered nervously.“I.. I don't think we've met anywhere else besides here. You must have me mistaken with somebody else. Could be a doppelganger.” She giggled nervously, tucking a lose strand of hair behind her ear. “Could be,” Pablo nodded, sipping his coffee. “If you don't need anything else, I'll be on my way now.” Eleonora bowed before trotting off.

Chapter: Hallucinations.“You called me.” Eleonora said, standing before madam Gigi in her office. “Yes, I did. Take a seat please.” Madam Gigi sighed, going through the laptop on her desk. She was the only one who was permitted to have a computer or a phone for record keeping purposes only.“I hope all is well.” Eleonora couldn't help but notice the foul expression on madam Gigi's face. She wondered if she had done something wrong, and tried to retrace her steps.“Everything is fine Eleonora. I received an instruction from mistress Anna-Marie and that's why you're here.” She answered and Eleonora immediately got uncomfortable. “What? What did she say?” “I told you to stay out of trouble, didn't I? Why did you think it was nice to sleep on the boss's bed and step on his sister's toes?” Madam Gigi asked, a gloom on her face. She really liked Eleonora, and wanted the best for her. “What could I have done?” Eleonora furrowed her brows instantly. “He was having spasms and I…”“Enough. I don't want to know. T

Chapter: She's gone.“What do you mean you're leaving?” Vicky asked, following Charlene as they barged into the house. Veronica had managed to drag herself off the floor before leaving, but she also promised to make Charlene pay for trying to hurt her baby. “Didn't you hear Veronica? She's going to take legal actions against me, and.. and..” Charlene rubbed her sweaty forehead, tears still trailing down her face. She was panicking, her breathing was becoming unsteady. “And what?” “She's fucking carrying Noah's child! They're going to end up as a family!” “So what?” Vicky asked, raising an eyebrow at Charlene. She knew it wasn't about the legal threat. “So what?” Charlene grabbed her shoulder, eyes wide. “How do I live with that? How do I live in the same city as my baby daddy, watching him marry my enemy and throwing our family away? How do I watch the man I love marry another woman!?” She wailed loudly, almost breaking down.“Have you asked Noah? Veronica might be bluffing.” Vicky suggested but Char

Chapter: Another baby mama.Charlene and Vicky waited outside Harry's school in Vicky's car. They were just coming back from a kids fundraiser show and decided to wait for Harry since school would be over in just thirty minutes. “Do you want a drink?” Vicky offered, getting off her phone. Charlene threw her a dirty glare and politely shook her head.“No, we've been drinking all day, and we're going home with Harry soon. We don't wanna crash.” Vicky let out a giggle and threw her head back on the reclined car seat. She started to hum as Charlene got on her phone. Her eyes darted to the side mirror and she saw someone familiar stepping out of black Maybach.She sat up immediately, and turned to get a better view. Just as she had suspected, it was Noah, and he was clad in a neat, tailored black suit, his slick, black mask resting on his face as usual. He strode towards the school, and Vicky gasped.“What?” Charlene turned to look at her. She followed her eyes and saw Noah as well. Her eyes widened and she immedia

Chapter: Bait.“Hi princess,” Mason called innocently, a wide smile on his lips, like he wasn't the devil that everyone knew. “Missed me?”Charlene struggled to breathe, her knees getting weaker, almost failing to support her weight. She stepped back, but her fingers were still holding the door, almost digging into the frame. “Please.. please leave.” She muttered, her lips quivering from fear. This was the same man who took her from the accident scene to his house and almost let her die because of his crazy obsession with her. How did he even know where to find her?“Leave?” He raised a brow playfully, his gaze turning manic. “But I only just arrived.” He took a step in and she almost folded, a gasp escaping her lips as her heart raced. “Please leave!” She raised her voice, but her fear could still be perceived.“I heard you left your baby daddy,” Mason continued casually, his hands buried in the pockets of his big jean pants.“How the hell did you find out about that?” She mumbled, eyebrows furro

Chapter: His return.“You can stay with me until we have your place cleaned up. That place is a mess for now.” Vicky sighed, falling onto the sofa, next to Charlene who had a glass of wine in her hand.“Thanks Vicky. What about your dad?” “He left for the military base already, but he'll be leaving for Washington from there.” Charlene sipped her wine, the haunting image of Noah and Veronica in bed refusing to leave her memory. She thought she had to get drunk to forget about it but that didn't happen, she only felt worse. “And Harry?” “Still sleeping.” “Thanks Vicky, you've helped me more than I can pay you back for.” Charlene bit her lip, setting the glass of wine down on the table in front of them. Vicky tilted her head and smiled.“It's the least I could do, especially after everything I said to you because of Knight. I regret my actions, I was just foolishly in love.” Vicky admitted, gagging as the cringe memories came flooding back.“Even I have been foolishly in love.”’ Charlene chipped in. “I

Chapter: Leaving “Charlene?” Noah's voice was low, almost uncertain, and he blinked rapidly to adjust to the little light that was sipping into the room through the room. His eyes darted back to the woman on his bed, and as if the alcohol suddenly left his system, he gasped and jumped off the bed. “What the hell are you doing in my bed?” He thundered, frantically reaching for his mask which was lying on the floor. He put it on immediately and dragged his pants up, racing towards Charlene whose tears had already drenched her top. “I swear, I didn't know that it was Veronica, I thought it was you.” He was obviously panicking, his eyes were wider than they had ever been, and sweat was already trickling down his face. His head tried to put two and two together, but confusion had set in already.How did Veronica get on his bed? Why was he so intoxicated even though he didn't remember drinking too much?Charlene could only stare helplessly, tears streaming down her face. She knew they were not in good te

Chapter: Caught“Vicky?” Charlene's shaky voice came as she held her phone to her ear. “Can.. can you come over?” That was all Vicky needed to hear, she hopped into her car, despite how late it was, and headed straight to the penthouse. The bandages on her body did not stop her, neither did the pain all over her body. Close to an hour later, she arrived and met Charlene waiting in the garage. She embraced her as soon as she stepped out of the car and they stayed in each other's arms for several minutes, Charlene sobbing quietly. Her eyes were tightly shut, but that did not stop her tears from slipping out of them. “What happened? You sounded so unhappy over the phone.” Vicky pointed out, her eyebrows pressed together in worry. Charlene only sniffed and pulled away from the hug, leading the way to the back.They arrived at the pool and sat on the edge. Their legs kicked the water, creating splashes that broke the silence of the night. Sadness hung heavy in the air around them, Vicky was beginning

Chapter: Sick.“Here's your food.” Sally placed a tray containing a plate of chicken caesar salad and a glass of juice on Ariel's lap. Despite her attempts to hide her vendetta, Ariel could feel it. It was written all over her; her inability to keep her gaze on Ariel and her pursed, stiff lips. “Sally? Is anything the matter?” Ariel asked, digging the fork into the salad. Sally stirred where she stood, forcing a smile to appear on her lips.“No, there's no problem, why do you ask?” She returned, batting her long lashes at Ariel. Ariel knew better, something was definitely wrong, but Sally obviously didn't want to talk about it. She remained silent and ate her food, revelling in the peace that came with Miguel's absence. It had only been two hours but it felt like an eternity. Sally left the room after Ariel refused to respond. On her way out, she almost bumped into Xander who was rushing in probably to check on Ariel. She seethed, feeling disgusted by their closeness. Without a word to him, she s

Chapter: Breath of fresh air.Ariel's soul had already left her body, his burning gaze and red, raging eyes were enough to send her to hell and back. Her legs trembled, and the sound of her heartbeat was almost audible. She was in trouble and she knew it, but this wasn't what she had expected. She had thought that he would be gone for a long time, giving her the opportunity to take through his secret room and find something against him but her plan had just backfired.“P.. please.. forgive me.” She stuttered, her quivering lips a reflection of the fear that was travelling through her veins. Miguel loved the look of pure terror on her face; her twitching eyebrows, shaking hands and raspy voice were all the things he enjoyed seeing. To him, there was nothing better than having your enemy cower before you, afraid for their lives.His tense eyebrows eased a little, and he strode towards her with sharp, calculating footsteps, his narrowed eyes refusing to leave her form. The closer he got, the farther he moved away f

Chapter: Choosing death.Ariel squirmed, clutching her chest tightly, as if trying to stop the excessive beating of her heart. Bands of sweat formed on her face, some of which dripped onto her bare skin. But her eyes remained glued to the devil in front of her. He had taken off his robe, and the sinister look in his eyes was enough to tell her that she was about to get devoured, maybe in the worst way possible.“Please..” she dared to utter, shuffling backwards and eventually hitting the wall. Her face had gone pale with fear, but his soulless eyes did not care. With an extension of his arm, he clutched her dainty ankle, earning a loud shriek from her as chills ran down her spine. As if it would stop him, she shook her head, tears streaming down her cheeks but his cold gaze did not falter. With a yank, he pulled her closer, closing the space between them and allowing his hot breaths to tickle her skin. She clenched her jaw, eyes tightly shut. “You're so sexy when you're scared, doll.” His menacing voice a

Chapter: Her father's sins.“Boss!” Laura rushed over to him, ignoring the fact that bullets were still raining. The fear in her eyes was evident, but Miguel nudged her away the second she got close.“Are you insane!? Kill that bastard! This isn't the first bullet wound I've had!” He yelled at her, jolting her back to reality.In a split second, she picked up her gun and started to shoot like a maniac, making sure this time that the driver was shot. “Motherfucker!” She yelled, running towards the car with Lucius behind her. The car came to a screeching halt after almost falling over the bridge.“Find him!” She instructed and they both ransacked the car for any sign of Jerry but he was gone— like the wind.“Shit! Shit!” She cursed, checking the surrounding areas for any sign of the corny man but they did not find him. They walked back to the car to meet Miguel who was still struggling with his bleeding arm. Laura's eyes fell, filled with concern. She hated seeing him in any kind of pain, and it enraged her that

Chapter: The shootout.A sharp, stinging pain shot through Ariel's entire body. She struggled to move, but then she felt something cold on her back, erupting the pain in that part of her body. Her eyes flung open.“Fuck!” She cried. “It's okay, just relax.” That was Xander's voice. She looked up and realized that she was back in her old room, and Xander was pressing cold water on her sore lower back. She winced as the memories of the previous night played in her mind, over and over again. She could remember it clearly— it was as clear as day, leaving her with pursed lips and fisted palms.After teasing her and forcing her to go against her morals, Miguel had fucked her recklessly, making sure tears of pain mixed with pleasure poured down her face before he let go of her. Her core was sore, burning like there were embers in it. Her wrists, which had suffered under the pressure of the handcuffs as she tried to get away from the beast, were red. “What have I ever done to him?” She sniffed, her anger meltin

Chapter: Getting into her head.As Miguel pulled away, Ariel found herself seething, her anger eating into her very core and almost leaving her breathless. Staring at the handsome devil in front of her, her eyes darkened, several thoughts running through her head.“You better be a good girl and do as I say, or else, you'll just be making things even more difficult for yourself.” Miguel scoffed, rolling up his sleeves and making his way out of the room.As soon as he left, Ariel let out a loud shriek, hot tears running down her face. She had to let out her frustration somehow, but since she couldn't move due to the chains, she could only scream. Her veins almost popped out of her skin as she yelled out in a loud voice, curling up in the corner. Sobbing, she imagined Miguel's face and how she would love to dig an arrow into his eyes and pluck them out. She had always been the gentle type, loving and kind. But since she came into the clan, she had turned into something not even she could recognize. Miguel had managed
