Serena walked quietly along the private path going to their house. The late afternoon gave a golden light around them, making the coconut leaves shine as they danced in the blowing wind. She felt the salt of the sea wind on her skin, a known feeling that seemed to touch her old wounds. She held Eli's small hand while the boy was busy telling stories about what they saw all day.

Far away, the soft crash of the waves and the soft laughs of other visitors could be heard, but for Serena, only her s

  • She Ran Away with His Hidden Heir    Chapter 40

    Three years had passed since they exchanged vows right on the shore of Isla Verde. But for Serena, she felt as if her husband was still courting her every single day.Serena stood on the balcony of their mansion, caressing her large belly. She was eight months pregnant with their second child, a baby girl that Kael had been wishing for for a long time. From above, she watched the two most important men in her life.Eli was laughing loudly while Kael taught him how to fly a kite on the sand. The eight-year-old Eli was taller now, and looked even more like his father."I told you not to stand too long, Mrs. Villafuerte."She felt the familiar and warm arms wrap around her waist. Kael kissed her shoulder. Serena smiled and leaned against her husband's muscular chest."I was just watching you and Eli," Serena answered affectionately. "Time flies so fast, Kael. It feels like just yesterday we were still running and hiding."Kael turned her around to face him, carefully supporting her belly

    The entire wedding reception was as beautiful as a dream.Under the vast, star-filled sky of Isla Verde, Kael and Serena's select guests celebrated. The entire venue was surrounded by tiki torches, fairy lights, and hanging white flowers dancing in the breeze.Serena sat at the sweetheart table, leaning against Kael's chest as they watched his men laughing happily on the other side of the beach. Even the serious Marco smiled when Mylene teased him while getting food at the buffet table."I can't believe this is real," Serena whispered with a smile. She played with the diamond ring and the newly worn wedding band on her finger.Kael's arm tightened around her. He brought his lips close to her ear. "Believe it, Mrs. Villafuerte. There's no taking this back."Serena laughed. She looked at the other side of the table where Eli was already sleeping soundly on a small sofa, wrapped in a thick blanket. The child was exhausted from running and playing in the sand earlier.A little later, Mana

  • She Ran Away with His Hidden Heir    Chapter 38

    Serena's world seemed to stop spinning when she heard the familiar and hauntingly beautiful music from a string quartet.She was standing at the entrance of a long white carpet laid over the fine sand of the private beach on Isla Verde. The entire surroundings were decorated with thousands of white roses and hanging crystals that sparkled under the setting sun. The cold sea breeze caressed her skin, making the long veil of her shimmering lace wedding gown dance.But her attention was not on the beautiful scenery. Her whole heart and sight were fixed on the man waiting at the end of the altar.Kael stood there, wearing a perfect white tuxedo that further highlighted his handsome features. The man known throughout the country as a merciless billionaire, the man who could bring down companies in an instant, was standing there now, shamelessly wiping the tears trailing down his cheeks.When their eyes met, Serena bit her lip to stop herself from crying. She saw Kael's lips part, seemingly

    The expansive garden of the Villafuerte Mansion was filled with small, glowing fairy lights. The familiar sound of the waves from the sea was accompanied by soft, relaxing acoustic music.It was the night before Kael and Serena's highly anticipated wedding. Instead of throwing a huge party, the two of them opted for an intimate rehearsal dinner. Only the closest people in their lives were there: Mylene, Marco, Manang Rosa, and some trusted men who had been their protectors during the times they were in hiding.Serena stared at the man beside her. Kael was wearing a simple white button-down shirt with sleeves rolled up to his elbows and black slacks, but to Serena, he was probably the most handsome man in the whole world. Kael held her hand under the table while they listened to Mylene's short speech."I just want to say... I'm so happy for the two of you," Mylene began with a smile, holding a wine glass. Her friend was getting teary-eyed again. "Serena, I know how much you suffered. I

  • She Ran Away with His Hidden Heir    Chapter 36

    It had been a week since they completely settled back on Isla Verde.During those seven days, Serena felt like she was living in a very beautiful dream she never wanted to wake up from. There were no more of Vincent's men keeping watch. There were no more threats to their lives. The only things that woke her up every morning were the smell of coffee, Kael's kiss, and Eli's happy voice.Serena stood on the veranda of the master suite, holding a cup of hot coffee while watching the father and son on the shore.From her spot, she could clearly see Kael wearing only board shorts. The sun hit the young man's muscular and wet body while he carried Eli, who was joyfully riding on his shoulders. They were running in the clear seawater. Her son's laughter reached all the way to where she was.Serena smiled. The man everyone used to fear and avoid because of his seriousness and coldness was now a loving and affectionate father.When Kael noticed she was looking, he stopped and waved. He said so

    When Serena woke up, the first thing that greeted her was the warm sunlight piercing through the bedroom window, and Kael's heavy arm wrapped around her waist.She moved slowly so as not to wake the soundly sleeping billionaire. She lifted her left hand. Even bathed in sunlight, the sparkle of the diamond ring on her ring finger prevailed. She still couldn't believe it. After five years of hiding, of the tears she cried abroad, and of the fear that almost claimed their lives... here she was now. Safe, whole, and engaged to the only man she had ever loved."It looks perfect on you."Serena looked back. Kael was already awake. His head rested on the pillow, his messy hair and hoarse voice giving him an irresistible sex appeal. There was a familiar smile on his lips as he stared at her hand.Serena smiled and faced him. "I still can't believe it, Kael. It feels like I'm just dreaming. What if I wake up later and find out I'm still abroad, running."Kael quickly pulled her by the waist, d
