~~Soren~~

***

I texted Delilah and hour before Knox asked me over for a drink.

But I've been left unread.

Sometimes I don't know what's running through her mind.

One minute she's soft on me, the next minute she's detaching.

But I intend to get to know her better.

To build trust.

Whatever it takes.

Someone clears their throat.

I look up. Hunter and Knox are both staring at me with their glass in hand.

“What's up with you, Soren?” Hunter asks.

“Me?”

“You've been staring at that phone since yo

  • Her Return, His Regret    135 Life's too short to be unhappy

    ***~~Delilah~~***A week breathing actual air without watching my back.A week since the chaos ended.A week trying to get to know Soren better and better.I went from having one kid to two in a twinkle of an eye.It's been overwhelming.A little different.Maybe not so little.June's been throwing a fit.Something about wanting to see her mom.At first, Soren thought she'd get over it. I mean, she's just a kid.Except she's a kid that has gotten used to sharing both parents.I can't tell if it'll get better with time.Or how soon she's going to forget.Soren has full custody over her. As a matter of fact Ashley signed off all rights in a bid for money.But I can tell you for a fact that June likes Ashley, maybe more.We'll see how that goes.The charges against Rebecca are hefty. She's facing life term for murder, that's for sure.As for Ashley.There's the paternity fraud, extortion and of course attempted murder.Strangely, Rebecca's confessing to all accusations.Everyone's shoc

  • Her Return, His Regret    134 My karma came too early

    ***~~Ashley~~***I lower myself into the chair and lean toward him.“Jade. You finally came,” I breathed out in relief. “It's been really hard. I never imagined I'd end up here. I miss you so much,”But Jade?He's not thrilled.Not at all.He's — cold, unbothered.Not even an iota of concern.He wouldn't even hold my gaze and he has this look I'm fighting so hard to discern.“Jade,” I mutter, my eyes on him. “You don't seem happy to see me,”“That's not what it is,”My expression drops. “What is it then? You haven't even said a word to me,”He exhales, eyes drifting away. “I'm just tired,”“Tired?” I repeat, confused as hell. “I'm the one in this shit hole, not you.”I can't help but clench my teeth in frustration.Jade's starting to piss me off.Or maybe I'm just irritated.I need to push this aside and talk it out with him, we need to discuss our next move.I swallow my anger, slowly reaching to take his hands on the table.“I'm sorry…. I just want out of here. You gotta do anythi

  • Her Return, His Regret    133 He’ll get me out

    ***~~Ashley~~***I will my heart not to shake but it won’t stop.I thought we had it all figured out.That Rebecca would get what she wants, put Soren under fire, make him unfit to be an heir while Cameron steps up.And me?I’d get all the money.A million dollars, that’s what she had promised me.It’s big enough to run off with June and go start life somewhere else with Jade, the man I love.She had strategically planned it all and I just had to go with the flow.Everything was going as planned.Well, so we thought until then…I glare at Delilah.I’m sure she’s enjoying every second of me under fire and Rebecca, well she’s ungrateful bitch.If she thinks I’m going down alone, she’s sorely mistaken.But Soren has it in for her.The cops stride in and my heart goes into my throat.My mind spins. This isn’t how it was supposed to go.Soren shouldn’t have found out.This was meant to destroy him, not me.How the hell did he find out?!My gaze locks on Delilah and my blood runs cold.I

  • Her Return, His Regret    132 Busted

    ***~~Delilah~~***There's something in Rebecca's gaze that tells me she never expected this.Turns out Soren's plan and distance stunt worked.It was no news that I pulled out of Bsg and went back to LA.The news had spread like wildfire.But that's what we aimed for.When it happened, everyone especially Rebecca thought it was over.Well, it was far from that.Everyone is out now except the Lancaster immediate family.Jenaya alongside Meghan takes Liam and June away.Ashley hasn't stop glaring at me but more than that it was fear.Fear of what might happen.“Rebecca, would you care to explain to them what happened to my car before the accident?” Elena says.Rebecca shoots her a glare.“The thing is you always think you're smart, Rebecca.” Elena’s voice cuts in again. “But the truth? You're dumber than dog shit.”It hits where it ought to.Rebecca snaps her eyes to her. “You know that is a lie. You're just mad I have what you can't keep.”Soren chuckles.“Ganging up with Dr Frank to

  • Her Return, His Regret    131 Put to shame

    ***~~Soren~~***That's when it dawned on Rebecca.The balance of power has shifted and so does her stance shifts.Her brows lifts and I can see wheels turning in her head.Good.Her gloating time's over.The room shifts, the air thickens, charged with an unhidden tension My eyes drifts to Alfred and he has this look — eyes all scrunched up, like he can't wait to see what I have up my sleeves.More than that, I see a man who believes in me completely.My father seems hurt. His eyes won't leave Rebecca.He hasn't moved. Not an inch.He's shell-shocked.It's like he's struggling to digest everything.I almost feel pity for him. Almost.Cameron can't even hold my gaze anymore, but I see the way his jaw is locked hard.Ashley?She looks like her soul has zapped out of her body.“Looks like I picked up the wrong envelope,” Benjamin says, reaching for the next one.He lifts it. “That's it?”I nod, pocketing a hand.“That’s a whole load of crap,” Rebecca snorted loudly, trying to throw a f

  • Her Return, His Regret    130 Not my heir

    ***~~Soren~~***June's brought in.She's on a beautiful ball shiny dress.I watch my baby and my heart simply aches for her.Beside me, Cameron stiffens like someone's just poured ice water down his back.His eyes snaps to me.I know he knows.But I don't acknowledge his gaze.My eyes stays glued to Rebecca.I can see the sheer excitement as everything's going as she planned.Ashley too.I catch her leaning over Rebecca as they whisper something I don't catch.I let them have that one.Let them merry. Let them think it's going good.But when it claps back, they won't be smiling.Of course the crowd erupted. Cheers.Applause.Until…“Does anyone have an objection to this?” Benjamin, the older blonde who's also the emcee asks, his eyes darting across the room.Silence.Everywhere is so quiet you could hear a pin drop.But I can feel it deep in my bone. That one person won't let this go.Rebecca stands. Just like I said she would.A smirk crossed my face but it dies off clean.Julian

    ***~~Dahlia~~***“De— Delilah,” the word breaks through his mouth, eyes wide.He looks terrified.The shock in his face is so loud it almost consumes the room.His eyes are on me, as if the ground has vanished beneath his feet.But I don't flinch.Let him stare.Let him wonder.I put my hand down
