"Hazel," he gasped, weathered. She snapped. " You know each other?"

I struggle to cheer up, and pretend I hadn't seen that scene, but it splashes across my face, in letters bright and blinding.

" Uhmm. He rented an apartment, and coincidentally, we were neighbors..." I pressed my lips close, leaving off how we met. Right now, all I can see is the girl whose happiness depends on what I say or do not say.

" He was there for Kelvin," I paused, and glanced at the man who had asked me if I loved him

  • Reclaiming What's Mine    Chapter 88: So wrong, so right

    (Hazel)I got off the phone, and turned to meet Piper and Barn unboxing. But those aren't mine. “ Where are those from? They're not mine.” I inched closer to them. Both men shared a glanced and looked down at my belly, the maternity gown leaving a breathy space for me. “ Well you're not the only one who just moved in.” Piper said and lowered his eyes. I looked down at my stomach and folded my arms while they continued. Hours later, Piper was in the adjoining room, hammer pounding against nails, and wood scraping noisily against the floor. On the other hand, with gloves on, Barn and some men checked the walls for some devices Piper had instructed them to look for. He called it bugs. Once they were done, Barn supervised the next group to put up wall papers around my bedroom and repainted the sitting room. Coming out from the adjoining room, Piper lowers his head, wiping his hands with a small towel. “ I spoke with Roman. Once Christian wakes, he and his nanny will join you here. The

  • Reclaiming What's Mine    Chapter 87: Who says I'm sorry

    (Roman's POV)“ You're dying…you're not god.” Hudson's voice replayed in my head like a voice from a record put on replay. Every word he said dissolved and sank into my skin. I'm leaning against the head of the bed when he walked in. He puts his hands in his pockets, hiding away a cut below the rolled sleeves. “ What happened to your hand?” I asked, voice low and monotonous. My gaze lingers on the door, like a part of me is waiting for her to walk in. He pulled the hand out. “ Oh this! Saw it this way. No idea when it happened. It's still fresh so it must be from earlier.”“ And you don't think it should be treated?”“ Treated? What am I? A princess?”I briefly glanced at him, and threw my gaze away. “ About earlier…I know I crossed a boundary —”“ You have taken a great burden off my shoulders, Doctor Hudson. Whatever the outcome, I'm relieved. You don't have anything to be sorry about.”He narrowed his eyes. “ Who says I'm sorry?”I shut my eyes, exhausted. Misinterpreting him

  • Reclaiming What's Mine    Chapter 86: Piper's ways

    (Hazel)From the moment Sam Hudson talked about the truth, with his eyes on Roman, one thing crossed my mind: his memory.He remembers. He has long remembered, but he kept me in the dark and watched me grope like the blind without help. A mere suspicion. But I trust my guts enough to believe he watched me all these while. From the side. And never said a word. Not even when we lost our son.Now, another one is lying in bed, without an idea of when he would breath his last.Withered, I stared at him, waiting, not with longing, or rage, but with stifling emptiness.And when he spoke, he didn't waffle or fritter. He struck home and cut my breath momentarily.He remembered everything.He remembered me. Yet, he chose to leave me in the darkness of distant past.It carved out a part of my heart that has long held on for too long and left silence behind. Emptiness. My heart should gnaw now. It should pull painfully at my nerves. I should seethe and fume. It should sting. It should stab. I s

    It went cold with silence, the corridor echoing the tension between us like a scream in the mountains. “ What truth?” She asked again, but not me this time. Her attention is fixed on him, lashes apart like if she blinked, the world would spin and this chance would be gone.Her voice filtered into our ears again, with a crack that made Roman's eyes cloud.“ Hazel, maybe this is not a good time —”Hand raised mid air, she silenced Dominic. His lips hung apart, breath, heavy. He shifted uncomfortably, and glanced at me for help.I shook my head. This isn't something I expected from a man like him. Definitely not what I expected.“ You need to talk to me. I deserve to know what it is —”“ What makes you think it's something you would want to hear?” Roman interrupted her before she could say anymore. “ And what makes you think it's something I wouldn't want to hear?” She countered bitterly, bit a side of her lips the same time a tear dropped from her right eyes. “ Who are you to determi

    (Hudson)Hours later, I'm out of the ER I set up in Hazel's dressing room, blazers ditched. Only God knows where I tossed them. With my sleeves rolled up, I closed the door quietly, careful not to wake the prince, but my heart burns within.Maybe it's the gripping career-long fear of ever losing a patient. Or maybe I'm just broken after witnessing the young boy try to correct something the adults in his life should have done a long time ago.But they didn't.“ How is he?” Hazel quickly asked, voice tinged with sorrow. Her eyes are crimson red, and slightly swollen. Her gaze darts between me and the door. I know that she can't wait to hold him again, or be by his side, but that's going to wait until I'm done emptying my heart now.I held her gaze, with a cold look that was foreign to me, shoulders tense, and patience gone into a humourless smirk.This three have pissed me off. They have really pissed me off. “ I'm surprised you care about him given that you were quick to turn your bac

    ( Roman)Hard as rock, I glanced down at my full length and scowled. It should be a little understanding knowing when it ought not to rise.I turn the shower, head dipped backwards to let it run over my face. I felt every second go by in scorching heat. The ticking of the clock came with a strangli

    My palm swooshed across her face and hit home on her skin. " How dare you threaten me?"Muscles contracting, breath shuddering, I recalled her betrayal. " You listen, Samantha. I might be powerless against my sister's schemes, but that doesn't give you the liberty to cross me."With a shaky voice,
