LEAH’S POV

His words were all I needed to come down to reality.

Because the moment they left his lips, I realized what I was doing.

I was letting the man who took everything away from me five years ago, wrap his lips around mine and kiss me like he owned me.

I was giving myself to him again.

Letting him think I’ll still come running into his hands.

I was letting the same lips that kissed Jennifer on our matrimonial bed touch me.

And the vision of them, still burning at the back of my mind made

  • MARRYING MY STEP-SISTER'S GROOM    CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY-TWO : LATE

    I could barely tell how I got in my car so fast.Except the fact that I yanked the drip attached to my vein out of my hand.Maybe I yanked it too hard the moment the call ended because I could feel the thick liquid which flowed out of the spot.My eyes drifted down to the blood dripping down from the spot the cannula once lay.I had been lucky to run faster before the security the nurses had called could catch.My head rang with only one thing.“I had to save Leah and my children.And nothing else mattered.”I drove hastily to the church venue I knew the wedding was happening.It was a good thing I could not beat my temptation and got details about Leah’s wedding.I drove into the venue, parking recklessly as I jumped down from my car running into the church hall.I could feel the eyes which turned to face me the moment I entered.Their gazes burnt hot on my skin.Probably finding it weird to see a man with a hospital gown at a wedding hall.But all that was less compared to how fast

    “Ha ha ha,” her laughter filled the air, and then she snarled.“You must have missed me so much Leah,See, you recognized my voice instantly,” she hissed.My hands clenched tightly on the phone, my blood soaring in my veins as I barked.“Where are my children, Jennifer?Where have you taken them to?” I yelled in rage.But she just laughed louder.“Oh Leah, You should really learn courtesy when speaking to me.You don’t want to know how loud your daughter can cry, do you? Come on, I’ll show you,” she muttered cruelly, and I could hear the shuffling of feet.“Jennifer, I swear if you…”My words were cut off by what sounded like a loud slap, as a loud cry filled the air.One I never want to hear again till the day I die.“Come on, cry for your mommy, tell her to come and save you,” Jennifer’s hateful voice came.“Mummy!” That childish cry came and a sob slipped from my throat.“Ashley, are you okay baby?Did she…”“Oh no no no, Leah.That’s all you get.I’m good right,” Jennifer laughe

    She asked, her eyes looking at me in curiosity.My hands trembled as I brought them to my side.And then, I struggled to school my expression as I spoke.“You don‘t need to worry about him, grandma.He is dead to me, and he won’t cause any problems.Killian had been their father since they were born, and he will always be,” I reassured her.And I saw something flickered in her eyes, before she nodded, giving me a bright smile.“Come on, Aveline, let’s go.The music should be starting any moment now.You don’t want to keep your groom waiting do you?” She teased and I laughed lightly, moving to follow her.But then, I paused, a frown on my face.“Grandma, where are the twins?” I asked in somewhat panic.The last I had seen them was early this morning, and they were still asleep when the beautician came.So I had to leave them in bed.She rolled her eyes in exasperation at me as she mumbled.“They must be with their nanny, you worry too much, Aveline.You’ll still see them at the altar.

    His eyes shut slowly, his lashes wet with tears.That was until he opened them, staring at me in desperation and fear.“There’s no coming back for us, is there?” He whispered his question.And I shook my head without any hesitation in my voice. “No, there’s none, Ethan,” I answered.His lips curled into a sad smile, one that crushed my soul.“You are asking too much from me, Leah,” his hoarse voice came this time as he stared at me in pain.My lips quivered, but I was not backing out.“If you ever loved me Ethan,Even just a little bit, then you’ll free me and let me leave in peace,” I choked out.He flinched, pain crossing his beautiful features.And then, he stretched his hands to meet mine still hanging in the air.As he clasped them together, his rough palm overshadowed mine like a shield.“I promise.I swear to leave you and our children alone.I swear that I’ll never try to hurt myself again.And I swear that from this day henceforth, we'll never see each other again.”His voi

    The moment his words registered in my head, I laughed.The dark and anger filled kind, one that echoed through the room as I spat.“So I was right.Everything was just a game for you."He looked at me in disbelief as he shook his head quickly.“No…no, that’s not it, Leah.I swear.Yes, I didn’t want you and Killian to get marriedBut I’m not so selfish as to pull such a move,” he said.“But you are Ethan.You are everything selfish and wicked.You never thought about how your words or actions affected anybody but yourself.You are…”“I’m not Leah!” He barked, and I flinched watching as his jaws hardened and he stared at me with so much regret.“I agree I was like that before.But I swear, I’ve changed.I would never repeat my past mistakesAs much as I hated seeing you and Killian together, I still wanted you both to get married,” he muttered.“Killian was good for you.He took care of you better than I ever did.And it hurt me more than I’ll ever say, but I swear I did none of this t

    “If I had known dying would have brought you to me.Then, I would have been dead a long time ago,” he joked, trying to lighten the air after I sat there staring for what felt like an entire hour.My lips trembled, tears gathered in my eyes and I barely realized when my hold on his hand became bruising.But if he felt the pain, he barely even cared.Because his eyes remained on me, steadily.“Leah,” he said softly, raising his other hand to my face.His fingers moved in my roughened hair, moving through the strands as if to convince himself that I was there .And then, gasping for pain—he sat up as much as he could.“Leah,” he said, this time more quietly.I could see the yearning in his face as clear as day as he brought my face closer to his.And the moment our forehead touched, he sighed in what felt like relief.Like he had been holding that breath for far too long.And then, my tears came in full force.I could barely hear what he said next through the sounds of my sobs.But I kne
