Kelly's POV

“Have more of that! Do you want to starve?” Daniella asked, holding up a piece of bread garnished with Avocado, tomatoes, scrambled eggs and some minced meat.

“I am running late already. I need to get to Mrs Cathe's office.”

Daniella rolled her eyes and pushed the plate closer to me. “Kelly? Do you want to starve yourself? You can’t chase greatness on an empty stomach. There's still time left? Just have a seat and eat a little more. Deals are signed better with strength, not hunger. You don't want to be staring out of state because of hunger.

I sighed, glancing at the wall clock. Daniella was right. There was still enough time. I was only anxious because my mind was racing with today’s task. I grabbed the bread quickly and took a big bite from it. I munched on it slowly, savouring the taste. The taste filled my mouth with warmth, calming my nerves for a moment.

“Happy now?” I mumbled with a smile as I sipped from my tea.

Daniella grinned. “Not happy. Still take a few mor

    Kelly's POV Our car rolled to a stop right In front of the supreme court. Daniella stepped out with a baby cart. She opened it up and put Ivy inside. I stepped out with Camille bay my side. We exchanged smiles and walked into the court. Alex's car approached a few minutes later and he walked into the court room, seating a few seats across from me.The courtroom was filled with quiet murmurs from all walks of life. I could feel the tension in the air. I smiled at Camille, as we made our way to the front. Daniella sat close to me, rocking Ivy gently in her cart while giving me a reassuring smile. Daniella was like a precious gem. She played the role of a mother perfectly to Ivy for five days. I touched her thighs gratefully.I glanced across the room and found Alex already watching me, his presence calming my nerves. He gave me a small nod and then smiled as if telling me I wasn’t alone. Of course I knew I wasn't alone in this. I had him, our pumpkin, Daniella and Camille.Taking a d

    Kelly's POV One week later.“I am confident I can hold her, Alex. It's been a week and I have added four kilograms to my former weight. I am strong enough.” I sat up straighter in the hospital bed, my voice filled with quiet determination. Alex's worried eyes softened, but he wasn't convinced. He hesitated, hovering close while taking in every detail of my face. I could tell from his soulful brown eyes that he was still worried I might break. I stretched out my arms expectantly, my heart pounding as Ivy’s little giggle filled the room. “Please, Alex. I am strong enough to hold her. You worry too much.”Finally, Alex sighed and placed her gently in my arms. Warmth spread through me instantly. It was electrifying and tears were pricking my eyes. I kissed her soft cheek, whispering, “Mommy’s here now, pumpkin.”Ivy giggled and I hugged her, sniffing her natural fragrance. “Today Martha is hearing at the court by noon. I would be attending with my lawyer,” Alex said firmly, his voice

    Kelly's POVThe gun shot rang out, loud and deafening, echoing through the walls like thunder. My whole body froze, my feet rooted beneath me, my ears ringing as the smell of smoke filled the air. I squeezed my eyes shut, certain that the bullet was aimed at me and that this was probably the end of the world for me. But when I slowly opened my eyes only to realize I was still standing. With a trembling hand, I reached for my temple and touched it, no wound, no pain, no blood. Wait…..what?Why am I still standing?Who was the gunshot for?.I turned slightly and there was the almighty Adrian staggering back while clutching his chest. Fresh blood seeped through his shirt as his gun slipped from his hand.Relief and shock wrecked my body at once.I am alive!I am alive!I shouted in my head and without thinking, I bolted forward, my legs moving based on my instinct and without warning, I threw myself into Alex’s arms. His arms wrapped around me instantly, strong and steady, as if he

    Kelly's POVThe twisting of the door knob forced me out of unconsciousness.The door creaked and Adrian stepped in, holding a plate of food. He placed it nonchalantly on the floor, the content spilling on the floor. I stared at the unrecognizable substance in the plate that was both nauseous and disgusting I raised my head, our gaze locked.“Let me go, Adrian.” I muttered with the falling strength I had in me.This was my fifth day in captivity without food and barely a few drops of water to quench and sustain me. My meals were always served at the same time, twice a day but I couldn't bring myself to eat it. It couldn't be poisonous and was highly unhealthy.Adrian grabbed a handful of my hair.“Shut up and eat, your arrogant fool.”Adrian’s grip on my hair tightened, but I refused to let him see the pain in my eyes. My lips curled into a weak, bitter smile. “Take your poison and eat it yourself, Adrian. I would rather die of hunger than to swallow a crumb from this filthy prison o

    Alex's POV The next day“Please be safe. Don't return without Kelly. We don't know what Adrian is capable of. I hope to see you soon. Ivy is also excited.” Daniella smiled sorrowfully while ivy wiggled my arms as she played with her hair.“Don’t worry, Dani. I will bring Kelly back. We are going to the address Adrian sent to us. I won't return without Kelly. I would rather die than leave without her. You have my word” I said firmly, brushing my hand over Ivy’s tiny fingers.Ivy giggled, tugging at my shirt like she always did. I felt a pang in my heart. These moments were moments I would forever cherish. I forced a smile. Daniella’s eyes glistened with worry, but she nodded, trusting me.“I believe every word you say, Alex.”I leaned closer, kissing Ivy’s forehead gently while whispering softly.“Daddy will bring Mommy back, pumpkin. That's a promise, okay? So be good to me before mom comes back and takes you away from me.” I kissed her forehead again.She babbled in her baby voice l

    Alex's POV“Hello, pumpkin. How are you doing? Do you miss your mom?”. I asked ivy , scooping her into my arms She blinked up at me with those innocent eyes that reminded me so much of Kelly. Daniella had given her a warm bath and had made sure that she was comfy in her singlet and pink Kitty shorts.Her tiny fingers grabbed at my shirt as if holding onto it for comfort. Tears welled up in my eyes knowing that I had failed her as a father by not being able to protect her favourite person.“Don’t worry, sweetheart. Daddy is doing everything in his power to bring Mommy back home to you. Daddy won't stop until Mom cuddles you in her arms,” I whispered, kissing her foreheadIvy let out a small giggle totally oblivious of what I was saying but I knew deep down that she could feel her mother’s absence. She could feel Kelly's absences but couldn't express it in words.This was the fourth day since Kelly disappeared and life hasn't been easy for me. Taking care of Ivy would have been a huge
