Emelia slammed the door to her room so hard she heard the earth shake. She slumps to her knees, burying her head deep in her palms. The memories of a few minutes ago flashed through her eyes as she tried hard to catch her breath….¬

“I've never been better.” Fred spoke hoarsely, his voice barely coming out as a whisper, but Emelia heard him. He shook his head, losing his grip on her waist, giving her a split second to dash away to the corner of the car, trying to be as far as possible from him.

“Drive quick,” he barks at the driver as his breathing becomes even heavier.

“What's wrong with you?” Emelia reached out her hand over his forehead, but it was held almost before her skin could contact him.

“Don't touch me,” he grinds his teeth so hard that she can see veins popping from the corner of his face. This was not the man she was used to. Fred was always cold and composed but never in a disoriented manner like he appeared to be at the moment. Emelia watched as he loosened his tie an

    Clair hasn't felt this good all her life. She was sailing well in her business, and now her mother had invited her home, and she was more than happy to go. It’s been a few months, and so much has changed about her. She lived in the Woods mansion, but not as a mistress or concubine to the Alpha, rather as part-owner.She was scheming and used her ways to get what she wanted. If she learned anything from Emilia in the past, it would be not to let your enemies know your next move. She walked out of her room dressed in beige pants and a purple top, her car keys jingling from her side. Mrs. Carrier Woods watched from the dining room as a proud smile spread across her lips.At first, Clair felt like a thorn in her flesh, but now she saw her with great regard. Not only did she rise from nothing, but she had made a name for herself and was no longer desperate for the attention of men. Clair looked over to the dining room and smiled.“Good morning, Aunt.” Mrs. Carrier Woods smiled back. “Good

    The death of a dearest friend left Mrs. Anderson unable to eat or drink anything. Her mind kept wandering back to her last words.“Tell them you will regret it if you keep it for long,” she had warned, and now she was dead. Mrs. Anderson sat on the balcony of her room, her mind uneasy. How was she to bring it up?It's been years, and now she would rather bury it, but deep down she knew she couldn't bring herself to do that. She still craved it; she had been the one who made the decision, but no day passed without her wanting the touch of it, the sound, the sight of it.How was she to bring it up now that everyone was long gone? Guilt was fast eating her from within, and there was no one she could confide in. Rema walked into the room to find Mrs. Anderson so consumed by her thoughts. She placed the freshly ordered flowers on the table before walking over to her.“The roses are here,” she announced. Mrs. Anderson jolted a little but smiled and turned towards Rema. She saw the white ros

    Emilia had stayed up all night with the others, but no one could bring themselves to deliver the news of Lina’s passing to the Cains. Mrs. Cain had called a few more times, and finally, Fredrick took the call.“Hello, Fred... did you see her? Was she found?” She asked impatiently, but Fredrick sighed.“I’m sorry, she was gone before he found her.” His words hung in the air, and soon he heard the phone beep from the other end. The call had been cut off, and he just stood there staring at everyone.“Mark is a beast,” Fabulous broke the silence. Everyone agreed.Fredrick turned to leave, but the steps of Sally caught his attention as she rushed in, handing them the morning article.“He killed his mother,” she announced like it was some jovial news. Fredrick halted while Emilia quickly grabbed hold of the papers.“What do you mean by ‘he killed his mother’?” Emilia asked, reading through the article. Every word and picture on it sent shocks through her legs. She staggered a little backwar

    It poured heavily all through the night, but despite the cold, Mrs. Camfrey couldn't sleep. She kept going out to check on her children. Mark had returned much later in the night, but there was no sign of Lina. The longer she stayed outside, the more frightened Mrs. Camfrey felt. She couldn't help but think the worst. The night was painful, and it did not settle matters within her when the house phone rang, only for her to answer and hear Mrs. Cain.“Lina... Lina,” she called desperately into the phone. Mrs. Camfrey stood frozen for a second before recovering herself. “She isn't home. I don't know where else to look for her,” she half-cried. She could hear the big sigh of Mrs. Cain and whoever she was with.“Lina is not fine. Something has happened to her,” Mrs. Cain said, and Mrs. Camfrey couldn't deny it. She, too, was her mother, and she could feel a shift within her. The phone died, and both parties turned to their phones, making even more calls. Not knowing who else to call, Mrs.

    Lina was too caught up in their conversation to notice they had taken the wrong turn. The car sped away into an isolated path, and only then was she conscious of their location.“Mark…” she called out, suspecting nothing as she looked out the window, trying to make out where they were.“I think you took the wrong turn,” she added, her head out the window, the wind blowing in her face. Mark sneered, taking another turn.“No, we are on the right path,” he assured her calmly, but something within Lina shifted. A sudden feeling took hold of her, and all she wanted was to get out of the car. She could feel her hair stand on end despite the wind pushing it in another direction. Her body was covered in goosebumps, and a sudden cold engulfed her.“Stop the car,” she ordered, but the wind washed away her words as Mark did not stop but increased the speed. Lina was now scared—an impending danger lay ahead, and she did not want it. Her mind went wild, and the thought of the gun being in the poss

  • Lost Her To My Brother    Chapter 89

    Emilia woke up feeling tired. She couldn't place the feeling, but her mind wasn't in order. She felt tired without doing anything, but she blamed it on recent activities. She had been so busy, barely stopping to have little snacks and beverages. She stood up and walked to the balcony. The day was as bright as she hoped for her day. She quickly rushed into the bathroom and was soon out. She hurried and walked out of her room, taking her work items with her.With Fredrick gone for a little affair, she did not bother to have breakfast. As she rushed down the stairs, Sally was waiting at the bottom with a flask of homemade food.“Please eat; Fredrick will have my head if he gets to know you've been missing breakfast.” Emilia smiled, taking the little flask.Kelvin had a few errands to run, so Fabulous did the driving. As they took off for the office, Fabulous couldn't help but ask,“Will he accept them if they come for him?”Emilia raised her head from the file she was going through. Her
