Talon's POVNaya apologized for leaving like that and told me everything. My heart swelled with relief and happiness as she poured out her heart to me. I was worried sick about her. But now, she was finally back in my arms and telling me everything that had happened. As I listened to her story, I couldn't help but worry if she was really fine. She seemed so vulnerable and fragile, and the thought of anything happening to her tore at my heartstrings. Even if she assured me that she was doing just fine, I couldn't completely believe her. The next day, I decided to do something special for Naya. I was going to get her an engagement ring, and marry her again without her knowledge. I knew it was a little unconventional, but I wanted to show her how much I loved her and how committed I was to our relationship. Naya’s POVWe watched a movie together. After the movie, when we were getting ready for bed, Talon finally spoke up. "I'm sorry I got so angry earlier," he said, looking at me. "I
Talon's POVThe maid who was supposed to bring extra food for Naya was delaying and I wasn’t finding it funny. Why was she taking so much time? Worse still, Nelson was in the kitchen with her. I didn’t want to think that Nelson was up to something bad. I didn’t think that way because I believed that he wouldn’t want to harm me in my own house. But, as time went on, Naya grew more and more impatient, and I could no longer try to calm her down. She just needed to be given food. She couldn't control the anger she was feeling inside. "Where is the maid? I'm starving. It's been an hour since she said she would bring me food,” Naya said in frustration.I got up from the couch and walked towards the dining room, curious to see what was going on. As I tried to enterthe kitchen, I saw the maid standing nervously by the door. She had a tray of food in her hands, but she seemed reluctant to bring it to Naya."Naya, the maid is here with your food," I said, trying to ease the tension in the ro
Naya’s POVI couldn't believe what had just happened. One moment, we were all sitting at the diner, laughing and chatting away, and the next, Nelson tried to convince my personal maid to poison me. What did I ever do to him? Why did he have to hate me so much? Sometimes, people just die without knowing that they are falling for a trap. The trap in my case was the one that Nelson set for me. But, I was lucky that the maid didn’t let it happen. Soon enough, Talon called Eric and he was in the house in no time. Eric slapped Nelson across the face when Talon narrated everything to him. The sound of the slap echoed through the room, and everyone fell silent. I was in shock, my eyes wide as I stared at Eric. Eric didn't say anything, just stood there with his jaw clenched. Nelson, on the other hand, looked stunned. He put a hand to his cheek, which was now red and stinging.Talon immediately went into action, trying to calm me down. "Hey, it's okay," he said, putting a hand on my shoulder.
Talon’s POVThe next day, I woke up early to make sure I was ready for the court hearing. I knew it was going to be a difficult day, but I was determined to see it through. Naya was feeling better after a good night's sleep, but she was still nervous about what was to come.As we drove to the courthouse, I could feel the tension in the air. Naya was clutching my hand tightly, her eyes darting around nervously. I tried to reassure her as best I could, telling her that everything was going to be okay.When we arrived at the courthouse, we were ushered into a small room where we waited for the hearing to begin. The minutes ticked by slowly, and I could feel Naya getting more and more anxious.Finally, the judge entered the room, and the hearing began. Nelson was brought in, looking sullen and defeated. He had already been found guilty of attempted murder on a pregnant woman, and we were there to hear his sentence.The judge wasted no time in handing down his decision. "Nelson, based on t
Talon's POVLife was a lot better without Nelson around. For the first time, Naya and I felt secured. It felt like there were no villains in our lives anymore. Five months after the whole drama with Nelson, I realized that we had moved on. The house was bubbling with excitement. My dad was no longer in so much shock. He had been heartbroken when Nelson was sentenced to jail, but things changed. His mood became a lot lighter and he wasted no time in showing how happy he was. On the other hand, I was going from left to right to make sure everything goes right with Naya. I didn’t want her to encounter any form of stress. She needed to be fine. After all, she was soon going to be a mother and, me a father. Soon enough, we were going to be holding our bundle of joy in our hands. The long preparations I made for our second wedding was going to be actualized the next day. The next day was our second wedding. I had invested so much in it because I wanted it to be special. I knew that it wa
TalonAfter years of ups and downs, heartbreaks and makeups, we finally made it. Our love story has come full circle and I couldn't be happier to have Naya by my side. She was everything to me. Life was a lot better with her around. I could’ve never imagined that things would be subtle between us. Judging by the way we met, I had never thought that we would ever be together, forever. I was happy that we finally got to end up together after everything that had happened in the past. The villains in our lives were all eliminated, and we did it all because we stood by each other. It was difficult in the beginning as all I could think about was my hatred towards Naya. I could remember how I couldn't even stare at her in the face. The fact that thing took a turn made me realize that we were meant for each other.We've been through so much together, from the moment we first laid eyes on each other in the weirdest position to our emotionless wedding day. Our first wedding was a disaster,
NAYA’S POV:“You’re…not very attractive, Naya. You’re quite ugly, and it’s embarrassing to be seen as your boyfriend. My friends laugh at you, and kind of make these jokes about me. I don’t think this is working anymore. I think it’s best we just split, you know?”His words wafted through my earlobes, mixing together with whatever it is words mix with, then settling in my brain at a pace that’s too fast. Just too fast. I blinked. I blinked again. With a violent shake of the head, I blinked my brain into functioning again. What? Not very attractive? Ugly?“Huh?" My heart ached.Gale, my boyfriend of 3 years, stared at me hard, his mouth opening and closing as though he was a baby. Pain flashed through his warm brown eyes before he cast them to the ground.It was at that moment that his words hit harder than I’d expected. I waited though, waited for him tell me it was a stupid joke, the most expensive one ever.However, the punchline never came. “Look, I've been able to keep up with it
NAYA’S POV:Cool air slapped over my skin, forcing me to relax onto this soft thing my body was on. Cindy must have taken me home. This feels softer than my bed, though, I thought, as I stretched. Maybe I was in her room.With a little twist of the body, I felt the blanket on my body slip off, allowing the wind to graze my skin more. Needing reassurance of where I ended up for the night, I pulled my eyes apart and immediately cussed for making such a foolish mistake. The dim light of the room I was lying in stung my eyes with such vehemence that had me shutting them almost immediately, a groan escaping from my lips.As though summoned by the sight of light, a headache like never before sank into all the parts of my head, forcing me to twist and turn and-I hadn't noticed it because I thought I might have been in my room but now with the headache, inability to open my eyes and the air, it settles.I was stark naked.Placing one tender hand over my chest, my head went blank — headache
