SARAYA'S POV

I walked into the imposing mansion of my father's home and made my way to the designated meeting room. I knew everyone would be impatiently waiting for me by now. It wasn't my plan to arrive late. I had stopped by the mall to get gifts for my stepmother and granny.

"I don't know why you'd bring her here," The shrill voice of an elderly woman, practically yelling came in. That would be my grandmother, Isla, even though I've never seen or heard her speak before but from what I've heard about her. I could tell she was the one speaking.

"That grumpy old woman." I cussed under my breath and paused at the door.

"You should've left her there in America and-"

"Stop already, mother!." My father cut her words short. I've always been curious to know what he thought about Isla's actions years ago.

My mother had told me how Isla had turned down her request of seeing her son even after she had told her she carried his child and that he needed to know about it before he left for coll

  • His To Own: Daddy's Secret Desires.   Epilogue

    ARLAN'S POVOne year later.We arrived at Dominic's grave. When I say we, I meant Saraya, Erlan and myself. It's been a year after his death.Saraya laid the flower on his tomb. "Thank you for making the ultimate sacrifice in the end and I want you to know whatever you did in the past, I'm not mad at you. Rest in peace, Dominic."I held her close to myself with my other hand and held Erlan in the other. "Thank you so much, Dominic. We will continue to look after your parents and do everything we can. I owe you, man. I promise to take care of Saraya until my last breath." Saraya grabbed my hand. "It's time to visit Matilda too, she would happy to see Erlan again." She took him from my hand. "Come here, darling." She said to Erlan who readily spread his hands.I nodded. "Let's go."We made our way to the small churchyard where Matilda's grave lay, tucked between two old oak trees.When we reached Matilda’s resting place, we met Tessy there who was also visiting."Arlan! Saraya! Erlan!"

    DOMINIC'S POV.The moment Arlan races to the basement, without thinking, I charged at Mary to grab the lighter from her but unfortunately she had seen through my moves."Really, Dominic?" she scoffs, shaking her head. "You think I didn’t see that coming?""Mary, don’t do this," I say, trying to keep my voice steady. The sharp smell of gasoline fills the air, making my stomach churn. "It’s not too late to stop."She doesn’t even hesitate. With a flick of her fingers, the lighter ignites, casting a small, flickering glow between us. My heart stopped for a moment."No, don't do this." Isla pleaded but it fell on Mary's deaf ears."I warned you," she murmurs, her eyes dark and unreadable. "No one listened." And then, she lets it drop.Flames burst to life instantly, racing across the gasoline-soaked floor. Heat slams into me, sucking the air from my lungs.I heard a loud scream from the basement. It was from Arlan. "Saraya! No!"I spin around, my instincts kicking in. I have to stop the f

    ARLAN’S POV.Liam’s message came in, and I checked the screen. He had sent the last known location of Mary's phone and it was Mildred.I cursed under my breath. Mildred was huge. It wasn’t like we could drive around aimlessly and hope to get lucky.Dominic sighed beside me, rubbing his eyes. “This is pointless. We’re running in circles, Arlan. We should just call the police.”I clenched my jaw. He wasn’t wrong, but something in me hesitated. I wasn’t sure if it was instinct or just sheer desperation, but I felt like we were close.Before I could respond, my phone rang. Ian.I scowled and hit decline. I didn’t have the patience to deal with whatever nonsense he was about to say.Not even five seconds later, my phone rang again. Isla.I stared at the screen. For a moment, I considered ending the call like I did with Ian’s. But then I thought, she wouldn't call me for nothing.With a sigh, I swiped to answer. “What?”“I think I know where Saraya might be,” Isla said immediately, her tone

    IAN'S POV.The moment I recieved Dominic's call, sleep evaded me. "What does he mean by Saraya is back?"I paced round my room. "Alex is awake and Saraya is back, does this means my time is up?" I asked myself. "Though I found out what Mary did you cause Alex harm, seeing how much he is avoiding Mary, does he know what I know?" I asked myself."The adjourned meeting is in few days, I have to think of how best to use what I have to get what i want." I told myself."Stop being so calculative, Ian." A voice said in my head. "They are your family and could be in danger. Shouldn't their safety come first?""Their being in danger will help solidify your position, more than everyone, you should be the happiest if they're in danger." Another voice said."Just stop it." I screamed at the voices in my head. "I shouldn't just assume things, I should call Dominic again."I dialed Dominic’s number, my foot tapping impatiently against the floor. He picked up almost immediately, but the voice on the

    DOMINIC'S POVI dialed Saraya’s number again, pacing the length of my office. The call didn’t even ring, it went straight to voicemail again."Come on, Saraya. Pick up," I muttered under my breath, but I already knew it was pointless.I had lost count of how many times I had tried calling her. Ever since I saw her message saying she was on her way to Sydney, I had been trying to reach her, but she wasn’t answering.Something felt off. I sighed, running a hand through my hair before scrolling through my contacts and calling Ian. He picked up almost immediately."What’s up?" His voice was casual."Is Saraya back?" I asked, getting straight to the point.There was a beat of silence before Ian’s confused voice came through the phone. "What kind of question is that? Isn’t she in Colorado?" He asked.I stopped pacing, gripping the phone tighter. "She texted me hours ago saying she was on her way to Sydney. I was in a meeting when she sent it, so I didn’t see it immediately. But when I did,

    ALEX'S POV."Since, I'm settled, t's time to talk to Saraya," I told myself. "She would be surprised to know I've regained consciousness." I smiled at myself.At first, I wasn't bothered when her phone was switched off but when it stretched for three long hours, I began to get worried. Saraya isn't someone to keep her phone switched off for that long.My heart sank with each failed attempt. Just when I needed to talk to her, I couldn't reach her.I remember I have Gabby contact saved on my mail. I quickly typed her name in the search icon. My impatience was getting the best of me.The moment I got her contact, I dialled her number almost immediately.“Hello?” Her voice sounded groggy, like I’d woken her up. "Who is this?"“Gabby, it’s Alex." I revealed."Alex Newman?" She asked to be sure."Yes." I affirmed."You're awake?" She asked, surprised."Yes, I'm sorry for disturbing you but can I speak with Saraya?” I asked, going straight to the point while trying not to sound too impatien
