“Take him to my father's warehouse on the outskirts of town, make sure he is blindfolded and gagged and don't underestimate my brother please you may be more than him in number but he could outsmart all of you and still give you guys a bad beating.” Serafina warned them, “That would be awfully embarrassing.” She shook her head.

“How long do we keep him there?” one of the guards asked.

“Just enough time for father to finish whatever he is planning.” Serafina replied, as she watched them put her unconscious brother inside a truck.

“Hopefully he finishes it soon.”

(DAY OF THE ETTORE KNIGHT ANNUAL DINNER)

The night was beautiful, the sun had set so perfectly over the horizon that Reyna couldn't help but be fascinated by it.

It was helping distract her from everything that was going on. From the fact that she hadn't seen Roman in days, she had gone to his hospital and the doctors and nurses couldn't tell her anything tangible, she even went to his apartment but he wasn't there.

    After breakfast, Jones prepared a bath for her. He kept doing the nicest things…she had never been treated so delicately. Maybe because she was always tough from the exterior, so people thought she would like the same rough treatment. “I got you clothes.” He told her as she stepped out of the bathroom. “Why did you decorate the bathtub with roses?” She attacked him with the question.“To make you feel more relaxed.” “Your seductive techniques won't work on me Mr. Sunshine.” She snapped at him. “I am not trying to seduce you, and I don't need to. You are obviously enthralled by me.” Jones said to her. Brielle's jaw dropped in disbelief, “No I am not!” She firmly denied it. “Don't deceive yourself.” He chuckled, “There is a whole rack of clothes for you to choose from, I figured you were more of a trousers person but you look better in gowns.” He figured that out about her already, “I do like trousers, more than gowns.” She admitted following him into another room. The stylist

    Lucia sat at the edge of the enormous bed, with a glass of wine in her hands. Her face looked distraught as tears kept pouring from her large doe brown eyes. “Lucia, drop the glass.” Ettore told her sternly, as he walked into the room. “I have been married to a liar all these years.” Lucia sobbed, drinking a full glass of wine in one go and filling it back up again. “You knew I was a liar, yet you stayed with me, Lucia.” Ettore recounted bringing out a bottle of old whiskey from his drawer, and serving himself some in a tumbler. “I thought Roman was your only illegitimate child, but you have another.” She cried woefully, swallowing another glass of wine. “Brianna was an accident.” Ettore confessed, taking a sip from his tumbler glass. “And Marian, Roman's mother?” “I loved her.” He looked her in the eyes as he said those words. Lucia's heart broke, and she smashed her wine glass on the ground in anger. “I was never enough for you, was I?” she questioned him, hoping his answers

    “I don't want to be a bother,” Brielle declined his offer. Right now, she felt so vulnerable, her mind all over the place and not in the right spot at all.She couldn't shake it, that even Jones had some tie to Ettore, though nothing had come out about it yet. She wasn't about to trust him just like that.“You won't be,” Jones assured her, his voice steady. “You don't have anywhere to stay right now, and I don't think you should be left alone in your state.”But he was right, damn it. She didn't want to be alone. She just wished her sister could understand, but Reyna was too stubborn for that.“I'll go with you,” Brielle agreed, giving in to his offer.It would only be for the night, and tomorrow she'd head back, try to convince Reyna one more time.“I'm glad you agreed,” Jones said, flashing that sweet, charming smile of his, the kind that could make any woman fall hard.**Jones' apartment was luxurious and dark…like his appearance. It had the dark masculine feel he portrayed, very

    The room was still, for only a nanosecond. “What!” Reyna and Serafina exclaimed in unison. “I beg your pardon.” Brielle spoke, also as shocked as everyone else. “Stop it Lucia, you have no idea what you are talking about.” Even Ettore was taken aback by his wife's statement. “My sister maybe a liar but she would never be anyone's mistress.” Reyna defended, “You must be confused about something, she only figured out Ettore was her boss after I gave birth and she resigned few months after.” “Exactly.” Brielle concoured, slightly calmed by Reyna backing her up. “A woman named Bri was constantly in touch with Ettore during that period, I recall it well.” Lucia uttered defending her claim. She wasn't sure if it was Brielle Styles but if she had met Ettore within that time, then there was a possibility. “Well it wasn't me, I would never be the kind of person to ruin someone's home.” Brielle said, outside lovers had ruined her and Reyna's home. “Brianna not Brielle.” Serafina spoke u

    Before Roman could land a punch on his father, he was held down by two of his father's minions.“Roman!” Lucia exclaimed, taken aback. “He is your father.” “Can't you see what he is doing to me?” Roman bellowed, his voice filled with hatred. “Grandfather was right, you are crazy.” Reign said, shaking his head as he stared at Roman with disdain. “This was your plan, wasn't it Ettore Knight.” Roman spat fuming. “Refer to him as your father.” Lucia corrected him, but he turned his anger on her instead. “You always do this, let your husband ruin my life and ruin yours too, don't you get tired of it?” Roman questioned, sounding fed up.Serafina looked at her mother and shook her head, her mom always defended her father no matter what monstrous act he committed and yet again he had broken her trust. “Mother, let's go inside.” She urged her mother but Lucia refused. “Roman don't talk to her like that.” Reyna told him sternly. “You shouldn't talk to her like that.” “You know nothing a

  • FROM WALLFLOWER TO SHOWSTOPPER    CHAPTER FOURTY-FIVE: FATHER AND SON DRAMA

    The room was in uproar, people were murmuring, whispering and wondering, why they never knew about Ettore Knight daughters son. Especially Serafina, because now everyone's attention had turned to her. How could her father pull such a stunt without informing her she didn't know he would claim to everyone that Reign, her brother's son, belonged to her. This was her punishment, he was yet to punish her for giving Reyna, Reign's pendant, so this was her punishment. “Isn't that right daughter?” Ettore asked her so sweetly it made her want to puke. “Yes Father.” She replied tight lipped, she turned to look at the face of the Fashion designer. Maybe seeing her in distress would make this game feel more enjoyable. And it did, the fashion designer looked whiter than snow, equally shocked by the revelation. Maybe now she would be doubting if the child was really her's and Roman's. She would add to the game, torture Reyna and Roman because they were the reason she was being pulled into thi
