Blossom's POV
Life was good. I got engaged to the guy of my dreams and although we were still young people, we were happy with our son and being a real family.
As the months went by, I was informed that my mother had been released from prison and was compensated for her wrongful imprisonment after all those years but sadly, she had decided that she was going to stay in Ghana and rebuild our former house with the money she got.

"Blossom! My beautiful daughter. How are you doing?"
"Mom, it's been ages. I'm so happy to hear your voice than receiving letters and the few minutes on the prison phones. How are you doing?"
"So much mixed emotions still, my daughter. I'm hurt, angry but yet so happy to have my freedom."
"It shouldn't have been taken away in the first place. And just so you know, Brooke is doing time for her actions. The lawyers are fighting her mother's case by saying she was unaware of her daughter's doings
Blossom's POV"Are you crazy! I'm not PREGNANT!" I yelled. Bewildered was an understatement to describe the mood I was in.The fierce pain snapped and I thought I was going to break into half."AAAARRRGGHHHH!" I cried. Jevan held my hand and wiped beads of sweat off my forehead."Miss. Wright, I know this is alarming to you but I would need you to calm down and listen to me for the sake of the baby. Okay?" the doctor smoothly spoke.I nodded in agreement."Good. Now, on the count of three, I need you to push. Okay?""Okay.""One. Two... Three. PUSH!"I cooperated and pushed with all my might. I felt as if all the nerves from my lower body were being heated up."Get this out of me!" I cried."Push. One more!"I pushed the last bit of energy I had left and heard the crying of a new born before everything went dark from around me._________________
Blossom's POVJevan had been standing at the crib for almost an hour, looking at Dahlia's sleeping form."Jevan, she's not going to open her eyes," I told him, sitting up in the bed. I searched for my cellphone to note the time.Jevan had yet to say another word since telling him there's a possibility that Hunter can be the father. It was heartbreaking to see him treating me silently instead of us talking things out and coming to an understanding."I think I should leave now," he spoke up and I caught him wiping tears from the corner of his eyes.He was hurting."Jevan, I'm so sorry," I said to him. He reluctantly smiled a very forceful smile.He came towards me and planted a kiss on my forehead then he kissed my lips as sweetly as ever."No matter what, I love you and that little girl in the crib is my daughter. I don't give a damn about Hunter," he said to me.Tears of happi
Blossom's POVJevan stormed into the master bedroom with the angriest expression I've ever seen when we returned to the house. Dahlia was already in her nursery, still fast asleep."Do you have fucking rocks in your head, huh!?" he bursted out."Jevan, please understand that I only went...""What's there for me to understand? I told you to stay away from him and keep Dahlia away from him as well. But what did you do? You got dressed and took Dahlia with you to see Hunter!""BECAUSE SHE COULD BE HIS!""I swear, if you say that one more time, Blossom! I really don't understand you. You ought to be smarter than this. Hunter did everything in his power to try to break you. And you go waltzing to him with our baby!""Our baby? You don't know if she's yours. I told you what happened!""And I comprehended that. But what I can't understand is why the hell you were at the diner with Hunter when I told you to keep away from him
Jevan's POVI was heading for Hunter's office instead of my very own. It felt like my blood was frying and the air conditioning was doing a poor job at cooling me off."Mr. Sax, I have a Mr. Jevan Hollen here to see you. Should I send him in, sir?" his secretary spoke in the phone to grant permission.I noticed she was someone my father fired a few weeks ago.She led me into Hunter's office then closed the door as she left."Jevan, what a surprise. Have a seat," Hunter offered."I'll stand. This isn't a meeting," I answered."Oh. So this is an unfriendly visit?" Hunter asked, standing too. He straightened his posture and his jacket."You got that right," I said."Why are you here? Oh, let me guess. You came here to warn about staying away from your fiancee, right?""That and more," I said, tossing him the envelope with a copy of the DNA test results, "The proof is in you
Jevan's POV"WHERE THE HELL IS SHE?!" I bellowed at my security guard who was assigned to protect my woman and my daughter."Sir, I'm so sorry I don't have the answer to this question. I took Miss. Wright to the doctor's with the baby. Everything went smoothly there. Afterwards, Miss. Wright ordered me to a shopping boutique where she tried on a dress. After leaving, she noticed she forgot the bag with the baby's belongings. I went back to get it. When I got back to the car, they were gone. No Miss. Wright. No baby," he explained."You. Had. One. Job. ONE! And now my fiancee and my daughter are missing! Did you call the police?""I did. They're investigating as we speak."My jaw tightened. I tried calling Blossom's cellphone again and it kept going to voicemail.I was unsettled. I wanted them both home where they belong. I called my father next."I don't know what to do," my voice broke when I explained what occ
Hunter's POVMy father slammed his hands on his desk after ushering me into his office and shut the door behind him."WHAT THE HELL, HUNTER! I've had just about enough from you," he started with a shouted.I scoffed."Oh, you think this shit is funny, huh? You have everything a guy your age dreams about. I established a company for you to grow but yet, you can't keep out of trouble.""You're the one to talk! You think giving me the company makes up for abandoning mom and I?""Hunter! I didn't abandon you! Your mom and I just couldn't stand being in the same room together anymore so I left. That had nothing to do with you. I was there.""No, you weren't there! You were only there to clean up my mess but you weren't there as a father should be for his child. His son!""Listen to me because I'm only going to say this one time. Stay the fuck away from The Hollens. That includes Blossom Wright. You kidnap
Blossom's POV"Burning?" I repeated while I quickly reached for the TV's remote and searched for the breaking news.'A mass evacuation is underway as locals flee from their homes because of the current situation. Eight wildfires are burning California currently. Sonoma's wine country to L.A and surrounding areas. Get out if you haven't already.""Holy...." Jevan said when images of the fires showed on the screen. It looked like Hell. Jevan started making some calls and after minutes of watching him paced the bedroom and ordering commands, he turned his attention back to me."Baby, listen to me. I need you to get yourself and the kids to New York with my parents.""What? What about you?""I'm going back to L. A. There's something I need at Hollen Tower and at the mansion. I promise I'll meet up with you in New York. Okay, baby?""Okay, but..""No buts. Let's get going."**We packed up our b
Blossom's POV"Wait, what?" I asked to Evan when he mentioned the words I wasn't ready to hear in this lifetime or the next."Jevan is dead. He was shot by Hunter at the mansion.""No! NOOO!" I screamed. My heart felt as if it was being hijacked. My breathing hitched in my throat as my entire body started to tremble from shock.Evan took Dahlia from my arms and I succumbed to the floor where I burst into tears and screams of rage and anger and empathy.Jevan was gone. Taken away from me, his children, his family and friends. The dream I had about Hunter hurting him rocked me to my core as the images flashed before my very eyes."What's going on?" Jada asked, coming back into the room."Jada, you might want to sit down for this but all everyone else in here."As the family gathered, Jasmine broke down into tears. She couldn't take being strong anymore. Evan comforted her but it was like tr
