ELINNA

I should have known that today was going to be the most eventful day of my life.

As soon as we got down from the car, the first thing that hit me was the bright light from the cameras.

There were so many news crews and the way they were pushing each other with the microphones and cameras was so crazy.

“Mrs Evergreen, look here!”

“Elinna, how did you make your money before this?”

“What school did you attend?!”

“Are you single?”

We finally managed to push past the crowd and go in. I was presented with a bouquet when I walked in.

“Mrs Evergreen, my name is Raj Gupta and I'm the Head of HR. It's a pleasure to finally have you visit us.”

All I could do was smile as they all introduced themselves.

“I can not thank you all enough for working in their company since its inception. You have all believed in the dream that we had and today, we can happily say that we have built something beautiful. During my time abroad, I heard of how hard you worked and I'm grateful. Now that I'm back, y

    CARLISLEI went to the pack the next week because I needed to check on things over there. I knew that the remaining battle was at the pack for me to finish. “Where are you now? Are you outside?”I couldn't get out of the car any faster. “Yes, I am!” Before the car could even park, I jumped out to meet Gomez who was already standing outside waiting for me. As I hugged him, I couldn't believe that I was actually holding him in my arms. I don't know how long we stayed there for but Chase's voice made me open my eyes. “Dad!” I left Gomez and picked him up, hugging him closely. He wouldn't know that he came really close to taking over the throne at a really young age. “Hey buddy, how are you? Where's grandma?”“She’s in the house. I missed you, dad. Where's mum?”I looked at Gomez. He didn't know about it either because I hadn't told him. “She’s still at home. She had work to do. Let's go in.” As we entered the house, the guards took Lizzy to the cells. We all stayed silent as th

    ELINNA“What did you tell them?” Lawrence asked as I stepped back into the office. I plopped down on the chair and closed my eyes. My heart was beating fast in my chest. “I don't know. They asked about her and I lied to them that she had been transferred to London. I told them that they had a new Vice President so they had to get used to it.”He nodded and looked out the window. He didn't even ask who the new vice president was. I was almost falling asleep in my chair until I heard a knock on my door. My eyes flew open and I had to act like I hadn't just been in Dreamland. It was my secretary. “What is going on? What do you need?” She dropped some files on the table. “Since there hasn't really been anyone at the office, there have been a lot of things that have gone unattended and they need your attention. It's been holding up a lot of progress and even salaries.”That word wiped away every form of fatigue I felt. “What did you say? Salaries? Why would your salaries be held u

    ELINNAI don't know how long I had been staring at that wall, but I know I didn't realize when the doctor walked in and sat down. It was only after Helen tapped me that I snapped out of my thoughts and I saw the doctor seated in front of me. “Hello doctor, I didn't hear you walk in. Welcome.”I didn't want to see him. In fact, I didn't want to see anybody but I didn't have a choice. I just had to. Lawrence wouldn't let me get fresh air if I didn't. That's why he called me in today. As the doctor attended to Helen, I fell back into thoughts. He hasn't called or texted to check on me but Helen said that he called her this morning to ask if she's seen the doctor. That's not like him to even ask about me. I even asked Lawrence if he called to ask about me but he said no. When I tried calling him too, he didn't pick up. He didn't…If I say my heart wasn't breaking right now, I was lying. I'd never had Carlisle treat me this way before. He had every right to do what he was doing right

    CARLISLELawrence helped me stand on my feet. He had come back with a few men and they carried Lizzy to the car. We had to take care of that. She wasn't dead because Lawrence hadn't shot her in any place severely but she was bleeding and unconscious so they took her to the car while we went outside. He had also called the doctor to help me treat my wound but being used to things like that, I had to settle my affairs first before I let a doctor touch me due to the drugs he'd give me and will knock me out. “Doc, you can meet me at the house. You know the drill. Go with the men, they'll take you home to wait for me.”As the car drove out of the place, I saw Elinna coming towards me. “Carlisle, about today I wanted to thank you for saving my life. She would probably have killed me if it wasn't for you. Thank you. And I know nothing I say will make things better, seeing as you found out.such a thing like that from her. I know that I had no right to hide such a thing from you and I'm no

    CARLISLEI still had that gun pointed in my face with little to nothing I could do. Lizzy seemed like she was ready for her pound of flesh and she wasn't going to leave without it. I also had Elinna in front of me which just made things harder. “Lizzy, I've offered myself in their stead. There is no way I can choose between two people I love very dearly. Put yourself in my shoes, I won't be able to do it-”“But I've already put myself in your shoes! I didn't even get to choose compared to you who had the choice. Everything was taken away from me and I had to deal with it. Yet, I get to allow you to choose who you will like and you beg for mercy? Your wife or a mere slave? Sometimes, I wonder if he is actually just your assistant. The way you look at him and care about him.” I would never be involved with Gomez, he's just someone who means a lot to me. That is all. My eyes fell back to Elinna beside me. I couldn't fill concentrate with her being here. Why didn't Lawrence take her h

    ELINNAWe brought Helen to the car, and Lawrence slipped into the front seat to drive but I wasn't getting in with them so I tapped on the window and he rolled it down. “My Queen, what is the matter? Is everything okay?” We need to get going. I turned my eyes towards the building. Everything that mattered to me was right here and I couldn't just stand up and walk out. “Lawrence, I have to go back in there for him. I can't let him go, I don't know what she's going to do to him if I just leave. What if she kills him?” He got out of the car. “My Queen, I understand your fear but the king is fine alone. He is the only one that can handle her. If you go in there, all you'll do is cause a distraction. Let them sort things out. Besides, he made me swear to get you both to safety. If I let you go back in there, you might not come out.”I knew I was taking a very big risk with going back inside but it was one I wanted to take because I didn't know what would happen. I didn't know if this
