Chapter: Chapter 77- Make Me Forget
KENDRAIt was much later on in the night and Gabriel, and I were both sitting in the lounge and going over some work stuff. He had made it clear that he was going to be spending the night here, and for once I didn’t complain. Makayla made some strong coffee for both of us, before she got ready to leave, as she was going out on a date with this guy who she had met online. “Why don’t you guys watch something together, I mean all you do is work” she said with a small smile as she put on her jacket. “Work is always more important” I said before I finished adding the last touches to my upcoming presentation that I was going to present to some senior members of my team. Gabriel leaned back against the couch and gently massaged the back of his neck, before he picked up his big mug of coffee.“Makayla’s right, we could do with a short break” he said before he closed his laptop and made himself more comfortable. I gave him a look with my eyes, thinking it seemed like he just needed an ex

Chapter: Chapter 76- Familiar Scent
GABRIELI was on an important work phone call when Kendra walked into my office and closed the door after herself, looking as stunning as she always did. She was wearing denim trousers with a white casual top that was nicely showing off a hint of her perfectly toned stomach. “I’ll call you right back” I said to the man on the phone, before I stood up and met Kendra with a tight hug, thinking it wasn’t often she came to my office, and I wondered what bought her here today. I didn’t miss the way she tensed in my arms for a slight moment before she relaxed. “Are you ok?” I asked her before I sat back down in my seat and watched her walk around the desk, my eyes falling on her sexy behind, that was nicely shaped by the denim trousers she was wearing. “I want to talk to you about something, shall we go out for lunch?” Kendra asked as she fixed one of her dangly earrings. “That’s fine, just give me a minute and then we’ll go” I said before I rang my secretary and told her to cancel al

Chapter: Chapter 75- Break In
KENDRAI felt my whole world stop, the moment my eyes fell on the guy who was standing casually in the kids room and watching them sleep. He looked just like someone I knew, even though he had his back to the camera and I couldn’t see his face properly. I quickly got up from my seat and raced back upstairs, wondering how the hell someone had got into the apartment without setting off any of the alarms. “Kendra wait don’t go alone” Makayla called out to me, but I didn’t stop running. I pushed opened the door to the triplets room and instantly felt relieved the moment I found all three of them sleeping peacefully in their own beds. The room looked exactly how I had left it a short awhile ago and there was no sight of the man who me and Makayla had both seen on the kids night camera. He looked just like Elias from behind, but I knew it wasn’t him and that I was just imagining stuff, even though a part of me wished that it was him, just so that I could see him again and hear his voi

Chapter: Chapter 74- Date Night
MAKAYLA“You look gorgeous tonight” I told Kendra as I curled her long hair and looked at her through the mirror, thinking tonight was the first time she was going out with Gabriel, and I couldn’t be more happy for her as she truly deserved it. Gabriel was a good guy and someone who I knew would treat her well.When Kendra first told me that she had agreed to give him a chance, I was a little sad but quickly got over it as if there was anyone who could take my brothers place then that was Gabriel as he had been there for her from the very beginning. “I think I should ring Gabriel and tell him I cant make it” Kendra said as she picked up her phone from the dressing table and quickly unlocked it. It wasn’t the first time she had said this, and I knew it was because she felt guilty, even though she didn’t say it out loud. “You can’t keep doing this Ken, go out and enjoy yourself” I said as I put the curling tong away and looked down at her, hoping she listened. “We can go another da

Chapter: Chapter 73- A Fresh Start
THREE YEARS LATERKENDRAThe last three years had passed by as a blur, and I honestly didn’t know how I was still alive and breathing without Elias by my side.Not a day passed when I didn’t remember him and his warm presence. Even the best detectives in the city hadn’t been able to find him, and with each day that passed I was slowly losing hope that I would ever see him again as he had been gone for far too long. The only thing that kept me going was our three beautiful children who reminded me everyday that a part of Elias would always belong with me no matter what happened. I had given birth to the most perfect little human beings, a little girl called Eliana and two identical twin boys who I named Konrad and Kaiden. They spent the first six weeks of their lives in hospital as they were all born before their estimated due date but since then they were all well and had grown nicely. I never thought it was possible for me to love them as much as I did but they were definitely th

Chapter: Chapter 72- Self Defence
KENDRAIt took me a moment to understand what the hell Mikel wanted from me as I opened the file and quickly read through it. “Sign it now” He muttered before he glanced at his watch.I closed the file and looked up at him angrily. “You will never be a part of my kids life, you’re an idiot if you thought I’d agree to this willingly” I said with a small frown, thinking how dare he ask to adopt one of my unborn babies. Mikel took a step towards me held the gun he was holding in his hand against the side of my head. “Then I guess I have no choice other than to kill you and take them myself” he said angrily, and it was in that moment I realised that I couldn’t put my life at risk or that of the triplets inside of me that were kicking more then usual. “Fine I’ll sign it” I said quickly as I just wanted him to back off and leave me alone. Mikel moved the gun from the side of my head and looked down at me angrily, like I was his worst enemy. “Make it quick” he said as he watched me cl

Chapter: Epilogue
FOURTEEN YEARS LATER. “This cake is delicious mom” Aria and Adrian’s youngest daughter Angelina said as she sat at the counter and licked her fingers. Aria was busy cooking in the kitchen as today was the day Chase was returning home after spending the last few years in the middle east where he had been busy setting up some new hotels and overlooking some other new projects. If anyone thought that Adrian had done a good job at taking the Delgado name to the top than they clearly didn’t know what Chase was capable of, as not only did he take the company to the highest it had ever been, but he had also expanded it out worldwide, making sure every person of status and power out there knew their name. Adrian had raised the perfect son, who was not only intelligent and loyal, but also extremely dangerous when he needed to be. The Delgado’s were all looking forward to his return and to celebrate Aria had invited all of her and Adrian’s close friends and family over for dinner as she

Chapter: Chapter 102- United With Love
Aria and Adrian both flew over to North Carolina as quickly as they could and much to their dismay, they found out that Weston had suffered from a fatal gunshot wound to his chest with the bullet narrowly missing his vital organs. He had survived but was put in a medical induced coma to rest his body and mind. The next twenty-four hours were very critical, and all the close family members were told to prepare themselves for the worst, as his current statistics weren’t looking very good. Adrian held Aria in his arms and tried his best to console her as she cried uncontrollably, “Wake up dad please, we can’t lose you” she said as she took hold of Weston’s hand and kissed it softly, feeling helpless and weak. Nate was hugging Gabriella who was upset but trying her best to be as strong as she could. “Everything will be ok mom, dad will pull through” he said confidently before he kissed her on the top of her head softly. Adrian had called all the best surgeons of the city to tr

Chapter: Chapter 101- Sweet Revenge
Aria felt her pretty eyes widen the moment she saw both Adrian and Hunter go for each other and throw punches. Hunter was faster but Adrian was more rougher,“You want to know the truth, here I’ll tell you everything, yes it was me who got someone to kill your mother, I was also the one who got rid of Rosalina and the reason I took up the job of becoming your woman’s bodyguard was because I wanted her dead. I wanted her to suffer the way she made me suffer, its only a matter of time before she will do the same with you as she did to Rylan” Hunter said to Adrian loudly as they both fought each other to the ground. Adrian punched him on the nose as hard as he could and watched the blood splatter out from it, “I should have never trusted you and let you in to my circle, Aria was right about you from the very beginning, you were nothing but a waste of space” he said before he punched him again, not giving him enough time to fight back. Aria walked over to them both and looked down at A

Chapter: Chapter 100- Hunter
It was two hours later, and Aria was patiently waiting for Hunter to arrive. She took a deep breath and quietly paced around the back garden, thinking as much as she didn’t want to see him or touch him, she needed to do this for herself and all her and Adrian’s loved ones who had suffered at his hands. She had rang him and told him to come over as she wanted to talk to him about something important. Hunter was a bit hesitant at first but agreed when she told him that Adrian wasn’t home, and she could do with some company. He knew it sounded too good to be true but decided to go anyways as he had been meaning to get her alone and what better way to do it then at her own house. Aria felt her heart skip a beat the moment her phone beeped, and she realised he was here. She was looking out at the swimming pool in front of her when she heard footsteps.She turned around slowly and looked at Hunter who was dressed more casually than normal. He walked over to her and looked down at her wit

Chapter: Chapter 99- Breakfast
It was the following morning and Aria and Adrian had woken up nice and early, with last night fresh on their minds. Aria had stripped the entire bedding and put some new one on, before she aired the room and made sure no evidence of their wild night was left behind. Adrian buttoned up his shirt in the mirror and looked over at her as she smoothed out the new bedsheet, his eyes falling on her behind, thinking he was surprised she was still walking after being on her knees for the most part of last night. She still couldn’t look him in the eyes without blushing and he knew it was because of what he did. He quickly fixed his hair before he put on his jacket and tied his watch around his wrist, thinking a few more times and she’ll get used to it and there was a lot more that he wanted to do with her, with her consent obviously. “You done cleaning?” he asked her quietly, thinking in under an hour she had made the entire room look good as new and smell nice and refreshing. Aria turn

Chapter: Chapter 98- Hanging Love Chair
Adrian walked into Aria’s old bedroom and quietly locked the door after himself, thinking he had only seen her room once before, but he didn’t remember it looking as feminine as it did. It was his first time staying at her folks house and he wasn’t sure how he felt about it as he felt pretty out of place, although her whole family had been very welcoming. He took of his jacket and shoes before he walked further into the dim lit room and stopped when his eyes fell on Aria who was sitting on the edge of the bed, waiting for him patiently. She was wearing a sexy nude and red coloured lingerie set that nicely clung to her body and showed of plenty of her skin.Aria felt her heart skip a beat the moment both of their eyes met, and she felt him undress her in his mind. Adrian undid a few more buttons of his shirt and walked over to her quickly, thinking she looked too fucking tempting. She had left all of her long hair opened and was wearing a nice sun kissed body lotion all over her bo
