Diamond’s POV
As Karl’s icy gaze pierced into mine, I was dying. Dying of guilt. I don’t even want to imagine how much I had broken this man, who loved me so damn much and was ready to fight for us. But I was a coward then. I didn’t even bother to find him when he left, to know what happened to him. I was a… Suddnely a gasp as I felt cold lips engulfs mine. It was him, Karl. A cold shiver ran down my spine and I stifled myself, unable to comprehend what was happening. His tongue bulged into my mouth demanding entrance and I lost it. I closed my eyes and I found myself munching hard on his lips trying to catch his pace but he was damn fast and skillful. Her breath began to hitch, the chilly atmosphere heated and I could feel my cunt hot and dripping wet. I was already whining my hips, driving my fingers in and out of his hair as he kept devouring my lips. His lips drops down and he trailed kisses down to my neck. “Oh…Karl…” I moan, squirming on the couch as I swipe my fingers around his biceps, his silky hair. I want to stop him but at the same time, I didn’t want the moment to end, it’s been a year since... since I felt this goo—- “Karl——“ I shivered uncontrollably as Karl tore open my top zipper and made my boobs spring out, bare to the freezing cold. “By the time I’m done with you Diamond, you’ll wish you’d chosen me over that bastard!” And then, I felt my cunt heat up when he took my cold hard nipple into my mouth, sucking it hard, his other skilled hand squeezing my other boobs. “Don’t stop…stop” my eye squeezed close. My body was on fire, I squeezed his hair hard as I urged him on. “Mummy! Uncle Karl?” My spirit jolts out of me. I jolted back to reality and the first thing I saw was Karl’s icy gaze which was boring to me, and his lips were extremely close to mine like he was going to kiss me. And It dawned on me that I had only been imagining things, No, it was more like a memory. My mind had flashed back to that unforgettable day I had Karl this up close, almost making out and I didn’t even realize it. My head then snapped to the direction of the voice and My heart skipped as I met my three boys looking stunned as they stared at us. I look back at Karl and it suddenly dawns on me that I was in an awkward position with Karl. I gasped and immediately jumped up, Karl gave way too and stood up to his feet not looking a bit affected or disoriented just like me. “What? I told you all to stay inside.” I babbled, feeling so awful that my kids had to see this. “Mum, Does this mean that you finally accept uncle Karl as your husband now. Uncle Karl would be staying with us now?” Hayden grinned cheekily, all of them giving me a nasty look. Gosh, who's teaching my kids these things? To my surprise, Karl narrows his brow at them and then begins to chuckle. He looks like a different Karl from the cold and fierce one earlier. And I even felt more embarrassed. “No, he won’t Braden…” I went to Hayden and carried him up to my chest and turned to Karl. “Please, I think you should leave now.” I didn’t wait for him to leave, before I twirled jayden and bradeen’s head around, even though they proved stubborn and I guided them out of the room. *** “Mommy, who's uncle Karl?” Jayden suddenly popped up just after I thought I had managed to tuck the three of them to bed. Ever since Karl left they have been so adamant about knowing who Karl is. They buzzed my ears with it whining over it as I prepared dinner for us. Even when I strictly asked them to drop it. I knew they were after my own interest but the question just kept making my heart thump fast knowing Karl was their uncle and my first love. I sigh and walk up to pull Jayden to my side, “C’mon I’ve already told you to drop this. You don’t have to stress it okay, that man was just a stranger. you should be sleeping now so you can get up early for school, okay.” I said but he didn’t seem like he was going to drop it with his facial expression so I just came up with something. I told him he is one of my patients who really gave me a hard time before and we had a fall out. I don’t know if he bought that but at least he nodded and finally went to sleep. I went to my room and tried going to sleep too since I had a tedious day at hospital today but I couldn’t find it. My mind just won’t stop going back to Karl with different questions tackling in my head. why does he have to come back into my life now? I don’t think I still have any feelings for him but what if he decided to rat me out to Lennox as revenge for what happened in the past? And then Lennox will eventually take them away knowing that I don’t have any means to fight him? Oh god. I can’t afford to lose them, they’re all I’ve got. My fears rises at every bit clashing with my memory as it travel back to six years agoDiamond2 years later…I looked around happy with the table arrangement. Lennox would sit beside me of course, the kids and then Karl and Rebecca beside each other. The oven dinged and I went over to check the chicken. Rebecca loves her chicken golden brown and properly crisped, so I left it in for a few more minutes.Rebecca and Karl were coming over for dinner and final preparations for their wedding tomorrow. She had always wanted to go on her honeymoon the night of her wedding, so I won’t get to see her for a while after tomorrow. That only reiterated the need for this dinner. Lennox and I would be hosting them, alongside the kids. We were happily married now and might I say, this two years have been the best of my life. A lot had happened within the span of two years. My parents and I were finally on good terms although we don’t speak frequently because that can’t just change after so many years. I had gotten a permanent job at the hospital. After the incident with Tim, he an
Diamond My hands were trembling as I made my way to Lennox’s room. Karl was behind me and I could sense that he was equally as anxious as I was. Rebecca had gone to inform Lennox’s parents about his condition. I slowly knocked on the door before letting myself in. I turned to see that Karl wasn’t following me in. He nodded and closed the door behind me. Lennox was staring at me intensely as I walked across the room to the bed. “Hey”, I said as I sat beside him. “Hi”, his smile was wide and genuine. He took my hand in his and brought them up to his lips, placing a small kiss on my knuckles. “I was so scared…”, I began as tears filled my eyes, “I’m sorry”, I said cleaning the tears off my eyes. “What are you sorry for, you didn’t do anything” “Exactly, I didn’t do anything. I couldn’t do anything, I…I thought I was going to lose you. I couldn’t bear the thought of not seeing you again, of not having you in my life.” “Diamond…”, he squeezed my hands gently and looked into my
Karl I paced around the hospital hallway after my discussion with the doctor. He had spoken to Diamond first since I was nowhere to be found. After making sure Hayden was alright, I left the hospital to go search for Agatha and Lennox since they both had mysteriously disappeared. Rebecca had to stay with Diamond and the kids for emotional support. But during my vague search, I saw on the news that Lennox had been shot by an ex-convict. I had never been more sacred in my life. I began panicking and stumbled over anything and everything in my way, but I didn’t bother to pick them up. I had been to the bar I met Lennox in. At that point I just searched everywhere Lennox would normally be that I was aware of. The bartender and a few drunk men yelled at me as I exited the bar but I payed no attention to them. I immediately ran to my car, fondling with my keys, before I finally opened it. I hopped in and sped off quickly in the direction of the hospital. A lot of things went through my
DiamondHayden was awake and could finally have visitors. He’d have to stay in the hospital for a few days before he could be discharged. The doctors had to monitor his progress and recovery. “Put that down”, I ordered Braden who was accessing some of the equipment on a tray“I know you’re curious, I was too at your age, but these are sharp objects and not something you play with”, he pouted and stepped away from the tray, “I’ll get a nurse to take the tray out”Jayden was sitting beside Hayden on the bed, he had not left that position since we came in to see Hayden. I hated having to put them through this, it was my mess, they didn’t have to suffer for it too.I left the room to get a nurse to come clear the tray.I was about entering the room when I turned to see Rebecca running to me. She got to where I was standing, breathing heavily.“What’s wrong, Rebecca? Why are you running?”She was still panting heavily but managed to get her words out.“Le...Lennox, he was rushed to the ho
LennoxI had never felt more scared in my life. My heartbeat elevated as we ran into the hospital. I tried to collect my thoughts. I felt so guilty. I never should have let Natalia out of my sight. If anything happened to her it would be my fault and I wouldn’t be able to live with myself.We rushed to the security office. Rebecca was there, in a heated argument with one of the security guards.“What’s going on?”, I asked as we neared them.Rebecca turned to me and said the man wouldn’t allow her see the security footages. I mentally smacked myself in the head, why didn’t I think of this first before running to the police station.Agatha walked passed me and began threatening the guard who seemed unfazed by her words.We had to get permission from the board in other to view the footages but there was no time for that. So I stepped forward willing to plead with the guard. To my surprise he recognized me, and his tone changed to one of respect.“Dr. Winthrop, are you with t
AgathaI wasn’t sure I had heard right.“What did you say?”, I asked, anger and disgust clear in my tone.Diamond stood her ground looking as confident as ever.“You heard me…”“Diamond”, Lennox called and my eyes immediately flew to him.I couldn’t believe it. Lennox was the father of these bastards?How is it even possible?They are probably a year younger than Natalia. So when did it even happen?Where they still seeing each other behind my back?So many questions swirled in my head. I assumed a variety of conclusions.But deep down there was one final conclusion which I didn’t want to accept. And it seemed like the most reasonable…She had gotten pregnant before their divorce.That would mean he didn’t cheat on me or betray me.I turned to look at the two boys with identical faces. I had never seen it before, mainly because I never bothered to observe them, but there was a resemblance to the Winthrops…to Lennox.I shook my head in disbelief.Turning away from the b
