Chapter: CHAPTER 321HUDSON'S POV“Angelina Rodriguiez.” Val whispered, “Angelina Rodriguiez, our Angel.”“Yeah,” I agreed softly, my eyes falling back on Val as I watched her smile fondly at the sleeping child just beside us in a crib. My heart warming as I took in the view- my queen staring at my angel.My queen… she had to be the most beautiful woman in the world, right? Cause how could she not be? I mean, look at her right now, it’s like she’s glowing. With this warm light all over her despite the tiredness at the edge of her eyes.She still looked so beautiful, so warm and strong.The strongest woman I have ever seen.Independent, smart, beautiful, elegant in every sense! An amazing mother too, birthing and raising 3 kids all alone for 5 years. Running an entire company by the side, while still looking so fit!A damn sexy ass boss, God!I could feel my heart swelling with pride the more I stared at her unsuspecting self. Taking in the artwork the heavens decided to bless me with… I was so damn lucky.

Chapter: CHAPTER 320HUDSON'S POV“Our new guest has arrived!” The nurse gushed, pushing its wheels just beside Val. Where I had been occupying before now.“Awww, how precious!” Nanny Beth cooed softly, moving to towards it. Everyone doing so too, all except me. I just stood by the side, smiling as everyone got a view of our fairy.As if feeling everyone’s gaze, our baby stirred in her bundle. Her soft cooing’s filling the air, and getting several rounds of awwn from both Val and Nanny Beth. The rest just smiled, especially the men. James and Henry, whose eyes were already brimming with unshed tears.And as for the kids, “Is that… is that our baby sister, mommy?” Miley’s soft voice reached my ears, “Is that my baby sister?”“She’s so small,” Aby joined, her big eyes twinkling as the baby was lifted out of the crib and gently placed in Val’s arms.“And so shining,”“And pink!” Miley and Miles whispered at once, both of them lost in awe of the small being now brought directly in front of their eyes.“A tiny

Chapter: CHAPTER 319HUDSON’S POV“The kids are safe! And so is Nanny Beth” I assured Val, trying to explain.“We had taken two cars, remember? We took two cars, mine and your Papa’s, because you couldn’t sit at the front due to pregnancy and we couldn’t all fit at the back seat with the kids. Me, you, your Papa, James and Nanny Beth all at the same time.”“Oh,” was all that left her lips, the memory coming back to her as she slowly relaxed back down on the bed. I didn’t want her moving or doing anything after everything she just went through from both the labor and with pushing out the baby.“We didn’t leave them, we just arrived here earlier than they did.” I continued, easing her down. “They will be here soon don’t worry. I just texted James the address.”She just nodded in response, her eyes looking a bit drowsy as she laid on the bed. “Is it okay if she sleeps? She looks really tired,” I asked a nurse, the only one still present.Apparently, she stayed back to keep watch and ensure Val’s vitals were

Chapter: CHAPTER 318VALERIE’S POVSIX MONTHS LATER“Wah... what’s happening?”“Why isn’t the car moving anymore? Hudson!!” I screamed out his name, my breath both labored and unstable as I literally tried to hold onto anything for support. Anything at all, as long it could elevate the searing pain that seemed to tear through me at every 30 seconds.Just then, the car door flung open, presenting a very alarmed looking Hudson. “Val!” He cried out, slightly panicky at first to see me sprawled out on the back seat as I was unable to sit still anymore. “Val… love, we’re here. We’re here at the hospital; you will be fine. You will be totally fine!”“Oh God…” I moaned painfully as another wave of contraction hit me, not even letting me register the help Hudson’s hands wanted to give to me right now. Forcing me to slap him away as I cried out in pains. All I felt was pain, everything hurt!Every damned thing, and the more I stayed breathless on these back seats the crazier I became with pain. “Oh God, Huds…Hudson

Chapter: CHAPTER 317HUDSON’S POV“I’m pregnant, Hudson!” her words echoed in my ears, my mind not believing it as I stood there watching her calmly reach the living room without me.Pregnant.Did she- did she just say she was pregnant?Like pregnant, we are having a baby pregnant?“Oh my God,” I found myself muttering, a smile slowly making its way to my lips as she winked at me from her spot on the couch. “Oh my… OH MY GOD!”At my outburst she chuckled, covering her lips to hide her smiles.I didn’t even realize when I started hurrying towards her, my steps literally the fastest i had been. Like ever!And when I reached her on the couch, I just tackled her to a hug. Uncontrollable laughter leaving my lips as I turned her over that she was on my chest. Her elated chuckles filling the air, matching mine, honey brown waves cascading all over us. Longer than I even remembered but I wouldn’t have it any other way.Something else was far more important. Way more important! We were having a baby! An actual baby

Chapter: Chapter 22ALMA'S POV I couldn't get any sleep that night. Believe it or not, my mind kept flashing back to that black sedan, connecting the dots to it, the person that drove that car.The person on those wheels was the one sending those texts and notes. I just knew it.But what prove do I have? What do I do right now? Call the cops? That would only get more attention on me. There was no way cops would come over to my apartment and people won't find out about that. I was lucky enough people in my building haven't noticed me. I mean, I only just willed my mind not to care about the unnecessary attention and now this??"Is this someone online trying to stir trouble?" I asked myself, pausing my pace in my office. Fresh clothes, the sun high up in the air, a new day. "If this is someone online, I swear... I'll find you and crush you. Crush you for toying with me."It could very well be someone close. Someone I already knew. Like Chloe.

Chapter: Chapter 21ALMA'S POV Refusing to think much of it, I turned away completely. Focusing on myself as I started my engine and drove home. No one behind me.The time was about 11pm by the time I arrived, my feet ached, my back, muscles... everywhere screamed for comfort and I did just that. Putting down my bag and walking right into shower. Washing off the day's stress. "Maybe I'll call in late tomorrow." I murmured, considering how tired I was. "It's not like I can't do it. It's allowed. An executive don't need to clock in early like regular staff."Maybe I actually would.The thought floated in my mind as I walked around in my night robe later on. Easily mixing stuff to eat, something small. Pulling out the package I'd received outside my door. Tearing it open. "Congratulations on your new home." I read the words written on the small note. Opening further to see a fancy flower vase. Cousery if the building's representative.

Chapter: Chapter 20ALMA'S POV "Ma'am?" A knock came at my door,I looked up, "Come in." Then back down at the folders in front of me. Feet crossed underneath my sleek desk, white heels fixed on there. A white dress following too. Fitted to my body. "Miss Alma?"I paused, looked up to who called. Finding familiar faces, "Miss Alma!" The voice shrieked out, excited."Gwen!" I grinned also, rising up. Arms open as she rushed over, almost sending us backwards. Unsteady. "Gosh Gwen! You're going to trip her." The others poured in. Smiles everywhere."Hello miss Alma.""Oh my gosh, you look so good, Miss Alma!" Gwen squealed graciously, jumping on her feet. Chuckles leaving my lips. "You guys, Oh it's so good to see you!" I beamed, giving hugs all over. "I'm so happy to see you.""We're happy to see you too, Miss!""Hold on, It's Ma'am now, right? Ma'am, not Miss. We're happy to see you too, Ma'am Alma!" They announ

Chapter: Chapter 19Damien's POV "Dame?"Dame, dinner's ready.""Dinner's ready. Dame." I faintly heard those words. Faintly. Footsteps sounding outside, getting closer but my mind remained fixed. Replaying some other words instead;"Sentiments breeds revenue." "Every advertisement tells a story, every flagship piece becomes part of a named story." Those were the words from that meeting. Her words. And somehow I couldn't stop thinking about them, couldn't stop going over them again and again. It's been over 12 hours already.12 hours since the meeting, her first board meeting, the official announcement/handover. 12 hours since tolerating nuisance of yet another product fail at the hands of another incompetent staff. Everything else was okay of course. Went okay at the meeting, Grandma was on top of it and very serious. Although I didn't agree with her approach, I still couldn't deny the fact Alma was not a tangible asset.

Chapter: Chapter 18ALMA'S POV Her voice echoed throughout the room. Faces and postures redressed, everyone seeing that she was serious. Whereas she, she actually sat with a satisfied smile on her face. Openly showing it."Now that's settled, we can move on to other things like George wanted, right?" She taunted, leaning back and withdrawing completely. Like her work was done. Someone picked up then, clearing his throat."Err, yes." He said, "Our Heritage Collection. Stats have been dropping drastically since second quarter. Since Valmont Jewelleries released their Legacy Collection." He signalled someone with his hands. A staff moving immediately, one I hadn't realised was even present. Soon screens behind grandma came to life, drafts, pictures and videos playing on there. "So?" Someone mused, "You're not scared of those Valmont are you, Caleb?" "Customers have been comparing the two. Our Collection and theirs." The man said, Caleb. "Custo

Chapter: Chapter 17 ALMA'S POV "Good day everyone, good to see you all again." "Madam President." "Hmm." She nodded, straightened. "I believe we're all aware of today's agenda, I'll just get into it. Effectively immediately, 10% of my shares will be going to Alma Halter. She'll be a new member of the board, a shareholder and will receive all benefits. Welcome her." Quiet. Silence. The air was clear, then, "Madam Chair..." Someone started, cleared his throat. Male. "Surely this is a joke. I'll admit I saw the memo, but I didn't believe it. I didn't believe this is why I'll be seated here today." "With respect," Another cut in, male again. From my side, the end. "Mrs. Ashford, on what grounds? On what grounds is this appointment happening? I thought we have a process for a

Chapter: Chapter 235SERENA'S POV "Oh the heavens surely have eyes!""Let me see it again. Show me please!"I chuckled. Pulling up my top for the fourth time just this evening. Everyone smiling and staring like it was some special globe of destiny. Celeste been the worst of them all. The very culprit to my continuous belly display.I should just wear a crop top at this point."I still can't believe it." She said, smiling. Eyes bright. Smiles brighter. "I can't believe I'll be having grandbabies at once! Two!""Have some tea at least," Rosa dropped in front of her, smiling too. Urging her to take something. She hadn't since we she came here, since we arrived back at the house.At first we stopped by her place, to deliver the news. But we only got told she'd gone to ours instead, making us come home to her more than eager to jump on our bodies. Excited.Purely excited to see us.Together especially.It was her long hard prayers. Then she found out about the pregnancy, and now about it being twins too!You

Chapter: chapter 234SERENA'S POV "Are you okay?""Yeah, I'm okay." I chuckled, holding his hands. "Are YOU okay? Like really okay.""Yeah sure," he said, shrugging. Interlocking our hands.Hmm."Are you really sure, cutie?" I pressed, surprising him. "You've asked me if I'm fine 6 times already. I'm now worried for you.""Oh, I err...I just wanted make sure."Hmm."Okay," I sat back, letting it go. "It's okay, you know. To be tensed, surrounded by big bellied women... crying babies."He smiled, "It's going to us, isn't it?""It is cutie," I confirmed, smiling. Then we sat in silence. Waiting like we've been doing for the past 30 minutes.Then he broke it,"You know I've been wanting to ask...why are you suddenly calling me Cutie?"I turned to him, laughing right out upon seeing his face. The genuine curiosity sitting there. Gray eyes blinking in both confusion and innocence."What," he pulled at me, not understanding."You're cute." I said, calming down."I'm not cute. In fact, I think I find the word o

Chapter: Chapter 233SERENA'S POV The rest of the day was spent in absolute bliss.Bliss unimaginable!The staff all sitting at the table for the first time in a long while. Chatters filling the air, laughter, jokes, memories being told, of things that happened while I was away. The things that happened the period I left, how Eliot reacted, almost fired them all and so much more!Eliot was also at the table during all of these. His very first time ever to sit with his staff. Talk about laughing, talking or joking with them.All he did was dish out orders before now. But now that was going to change. He sat with us, didn't he? He even laughed several times when Rene was spilling all about the gossip she packed online about May and my entire family!Apparently my mom had made a circus at our gates. Several days even. Several times.But Eliot did not pay her any mind. Didn't chase her away either. She even involved the press, but I saw no such news online.I guess my schemer of a husband had that handled

Chapter: Chapter 232SERENA'S POV They're a lot of hard decisions.Tons of them if you think about the life span of the human life. Imagine how many hard decisions we have to make as we grow, age and live longer everyday.They were a lot, and rightly so spread out in our years.But why did mine seem different?Why did mine seem to come more in my early age?? Why?Since I could remember, I'd forced to take decisions. Decisions people of my age wouldn't normally take, I'd been forced to make those decisions and then try to live in those decisions.From living with my father and family, to shrinking to protect myself, talking less, submitting more, accepting to be treated like trash and without complaints. Then getting married, living in the marriage, getting divorced or at least attempting to, building a business, reconnecting with an old friend... everything.Everything just seemed so hard and all at the same time.I could barely get a year of rest. I'd never gotten a year of rest, not even a month of res

Chapter: Chapter 231ELIOT'S POV "Court arise!"The voice filled the air before I could even move a muscle. Everyone rising just then.Including her. Myself joining. Looking from the judge coming in and back to her.She didn't look in my direction once though, just right ahead. Spotting a white flowy dress. One that reached up to her ankles, her black hair in a normal ponytail, a white scarf wrapped around her neck too, covering her arms.If I didn't know I'd think she here for a funeral or something. Or she'd been crying."Did something happen?" I muttered, staring at her openly as we sat back down. Worry in my belly.What could've happened?I knew she quarrelled with Axel, but anything else happened? Did he hurt her?My head whipped right back to her at the thought, almost rising. John's steady hands catching me just in time. Surprised."Sir,"I blinked. Sitting back down, surveying my environment, the judge at his desk, another person reading off stuff. Recordings from the previous hearing probably.

Chapter: Chapter 230ELIOT'S POV I didn't want things to go this way. Didn't want it to escalate to this level, get to this point and dragging back all these old things...But he asked for it.He definitely did. So I let him have it then."From helping you to settle down, keep out of problems for a few months, getting along with your wife, and then implant the fashion idea. Arranging people to help with the idea, the smooth running of everything. The business, cause as we both know, you're way too reckless to run anything right."He held my stare. Disbelief.I sipped from my glass then, the air quiet. Finally quiet. His brain adjusting. Understanding. Cause he needed to. He needed to get it, and be done with this misbehaviour he's been exhibiting."I did it all," I finished. "I did it as compensation. T you, and well maybe for... For family. We do share a surname after all."He scoffed at that. Scornful. Malice boiling in his eyes, digging like sharp daggers. As usual. Only thing now it was more obviou

Chapter: Chapter 144ROMAN'S POV I kissed her. And it wasn't neat. Wasn't soft or anything gentle. It was messy, rough, hot and wild, exactly how she made me feel. How she'd successfully interrupted my life.She shuddered, but not pulling backwards. Lapping up right into me even more, giving back with the same intensity, her nails sealed in my hair, body wrapped heavy on top of me. Open, like she wanted to give me everything. Like she knew just how much I wanted everything, every single bit of her, her body.Soon it wasn't enough. This kiss, this heat, her body on mine like this, exposed, it wasn't enough. I wanted more than this. To be inside of her, permanently insert myself somehow into her body. Claim it as mine.And she knew.She so knew as she pulled away, both of us breathless, her core already rubbing hard against my cock. The wetness soaking through, "I need you." She whispered, grind harder. "I need you, Roman. I need you.""Fuckk," I clenched her waist in my hand, halting that fluid movement.

Chapter: Chapter 144ROMAN'S POV The elevator dinged outside as it arrived. The air calm, dark. The sound of her heels soon filling the air, the only thing heard, my pulse stirring.Soon her figure appeared. Host covered thighs, black pointy heels, short sleeves dress. Scandalous. A bow in her hair like a bunny. Red. Bold. The only touch of colour asides the bloody red colour she had on her lips.She smiled as she spotted. Wicked."Bloody Mary tonight, huh?" I joked, muttered as I grinded myself down to reason. Holding back. Her lips twisted deviously to the side as she strutted over. Taking her time. Giving me a show, which I appreciated in every bit. Then her eyes took in the air around us, the environment, her steps slowing down to a pause."What is this place? Where are we?" She looked around then, curious. The black office desk behind me, comfortable guest couches arranged around, circular. Wide glass walls on the left, overlooking the night outside. She stepped towards it, "Is this the city? We're

"I need to check the floor upstairs.""I need to see for myself how the progress is coming.""How team members are there in the Seraph wing?""Should the consultant give me a report soon?"I'd come up with all sorts of excuses. Anything at this point, anything to get me close to her. Get me alone with her, but Jordan. Fucking cock blocking Jordan, he insisted it was too risky. 'The coast's not clear.' he called it. Refusing to let me move an inch in her direction in the building. And as frustrating as it was, I knew he was right.It was risky.People from Boldlines had come over. That overbearing prick Joe came too. She was surrounded, she was busy. There was no way to sneak away long enough without getting questions.I had to listen to Jo. Hot and bothered as I was, I had to spend the rest of the morning and mid-afternoon not seeing or hearing from her. Believe you me, i

Chapter: Chapter 142Roman's POV I knew taking her would be a problem. I knew taking her fully, owning that body in ways that I shouldn't...I knew it'd be a problem. I'd hoped to put it off slightly sooner than it happened now but... I couldn't. Not when she came at me like that. Not when she responded to my texts, finally responded, demanding to meet and then looking at me with those damn brown eyes that told all the tales. All of the tales of just how nasty her line of thoughts were. Nasty just like mine. So it happened. I had her right there. Went out of mind and drove right home, fuck! Fuck! Cause it's all I've been thinking about ever since. All I've been replaying in my head, thinking about every minute I got a chance, even while in this shower right now. I was still thinking about her. How she felt...fuck, how good it felt having her up against my arms, inside of her, walls, how they continuously closed in on me. Squeezing and drenching me in those juices I was crazed with regret for

Chapter: chapter 141ALINA'S POVThen I reached for his pants, his belt. Ripping out that buckle as I held his gaze. Everywhere hot and burning as I stripped him open. Feeling him. Actually FEELING him on my palm. Hot. Strong. Fucking hard and hungry.Those were the words I'd use to describe. Words I'd use to describe the one thing I'd been thinking about, the one thing in my hands, that I was still thinking about and wanted now so badly deep inside of me! "I want your cock." I confessed breathlessly to him. Holding him. "I want to feel your cock, suck it...i want your fucking cock inside of me." His gaze darkened, jaw clenched. His meat feeling even heavier on my palm, hotter. Precum spilling harder, I rubbed it. Rubbed it especially slow as I began moving then. Reducing myself, my body to the floor so I came face to face to it, mouth to cock. "Shitt." Deep groans filled the air, from his throat. My fingers stroking him down. Watching every single thick vein pulsating. Every dip and curve, the girth,

Chapter: Chapter 140ALINA'S POVI set out soon after that. Soon after going to the bathroom and washing myself clean, putting on some spray or something. Anything not to smell like I was dying to have sex.But that was the easy part. Getting him, finding him, was the hard and worst part. And don't get me started on where exactly it should happen. The sex I mean.Where?"How is it that he can do it so easily and I can't?" I muttered to myself, looking at the hallway he normally used but somehow hasn't shown himself in the span of two hours that I've been watching.'Looks like you're going to have to text him.' my mind said, reminding me of all the unanswered texts in my phone.I sighed.Looking at the time again at my wrist. "4;21 pm." I murmured, seeing it'll be closing hours soon. I didn't even have Oxygen tonight either.I walked back up to my office. Stalling. But eventually, I did it.Shamelessly did."You free?
