Daisy’s pov

When his eyes met mine, something flickered in them, something like admiration, but it was gone so fast, I almost thought I imagined it.

“Let’s go,” he said.

I exhaled slowly and silently thanked Sienna for the makeover.

Jaxon helped me slip into my coat. Then he reached for my hand, his touch warm and confident, and guided me toward the sleek, black motorcycle parked by the curb. I flinched when the engine roared to life and held on tight.

Oh no. Here we go.

It felt like hours before we finally pulled into a street that looked like it had not seen proper maintenance in years. Jaxon slid into a spot directly under a bold red sign that screamed: NO PARKING.

I stared at the sign. Then at the building beyond it. It looked… old. Worn down. Like the kind of place they use in horror movies right before someone gets dragged into a basement. I briefly considered reminding him he could not park there, but gave up just as quickly. If Jaxon wanted to park, he would. Rules clearly did

  • The Forbidden Affair: The Man I Should Never Have Known   I could not wait to marry her again.

    Natalia's POVI took my kids to visit my siblings today. I had missed them so much. Now that they both have jobs, I no longer have to worry about leaving them behind.“It’s good you came, sister. I missed you and Toper,” Cassandra said as she hugged me tight. She had changed so much. My little sister was now a grown woman. She worked as a secretary for Leonardo Romano. Honestly, I never understood why she chose to work for Leo when she could have applied anywhere else.She and Juliana both finished four-year degrees. I, on the other hand, only completed two years. I had to start working early to help support my siblings after we lost our parents at a young age.“Sorry it took me a while to visit,” I told her.“Hi, auntie Cassandra!” Belle greeted her cheerfully.“Oh, Belle! You are so beautiful. Just like me!” she joked, laughing as they hugged.“Is Uncle Marcus not with you?” she asked.“No, he is not,” I answered simply. “He said he had something important to take care of.” I did no

    Natalia’s POVI made breakfast for my family. Marcus was still fast asleep, probably worn out from drinking too much last night.“Mommy!” Belle called out, her voice trembling like she was about to cry.I rushed over. “What’s wrong, baby?”“I saw you standing by the stairs,” she said, sniffling. “I thought you were gone.”I scooped her up and kissed her cheek. “Mommy’s just in the kitchen making breakfast. Is your brother awake?”She shook her head. I carried her to the kitchen. Good thing I had just finished cooking. I started setting the plates and glasses on the table.“Do you want some milk?” I asked.“Yes, Mommy.” She wiped her tears with the back of her hand.As I was mixing her milk, I heard footsteps coming down the stairs.“Daddy!” Belle called out with excitement.I turned and saw Marcus picking her up, covering her face with kisses.“Good morning, baby. Did you sleep well?” he asked her.“Yes, Daddy. I slept beside Mommy and brother, so I slept really good,” she said with a

    Marcus' POVMy glare could burn through him. After everything my family did for his, taking them in, helping them, and this is how he repays us?“You have no gratitude! My family treated you well!” I gripped my gun tight and pointed it at him.“Gratitude?” Uncle Berto barked. “We served your family all our lives! I worked on this land for years. That debt you’re talking about? I already paid it in full! What I cannot accept is how you played with my daughter’s heart!”“You do not even know what really happened,” he went on, fists clenched. “You did not see how my daughter cried. You threw her aside like she meant nothing!”I stared at him, my chest tightening. “I owe you no explanation. Selia and I were never in a relationship, so stop acting like I used her.”Uncle Berto shook his head, voice rising, “You are the reason I lost my grandchild! You have no idea, my daughter lost her mind because of you. I stayed quiet about what you did to her. Now it is your turn to feel the pain of lo

    Natalia's POV“Toper, sweetheart, have you seen your sister Belle?” I asked, my voice a little shaky.My little boy looked up from where he sat on the floor playing with his toy. “I saw her over there, Mama,” he said, pointing toward the vegetable garden.A strange feeling hit my chest. “Stay right here, okay? Mama will go find your sister.”He nodded, but the worry in me was growing. Please, let her be safe. Let nothing bad happen to my little girl.I searched every corner of the garden, calling her name, but she was nowhere in sight.I quickly called Marcus. He had gone to the mango farm to harvest today. After a few rings, he finally answered.“Hello, honey. Why are you calling?” he asked, his voice mixed with background chatter from his workers.“Marcus, is Belle with you? Please tell me she’s there.”“No, sweetheart. I left alone. I have not seen her.”I bit my lip as panic crept deeper into my chest. “I have looked everywhere. The entire garden, the backyard, even near the gat

  • The Forbidden Affair: The Man I Should Never Have Known   I felt his arm wrap around my waist

    Marcus’ POVI was enjoying a day out at the vegetable farm with my kids when I suddenly noticed Selia standing beside us."Good morning, Marcus," she greeted with a basket in her hand. She must be here to harvest some vegetables."Good morning. Are you picking some vegetables?" I asked."Yes. Do you want to try it too?" she replied."Daddy, I want to try!" Belle said excitedly."Me too, Papa! I eat vegetables all the time. Mama always makes me eat them. That’s why I’m big and strong!" my son chimed in, making me laugh. I playfully ruffled his hair."Alright, let’s start picking," I said.The kids were bouncing with excitement. I held their hands as we walked into the farm. The green fields around us looked so peaceful and refreshing.As I watched the kids happily picking, Selia turned to me."Marcus... I missed you."I looked at her, eyebrows raised."How’s life here in the hacienda? Do you have a boyfriend now?" I asked.She sighed."You already know the answer, Marcus. I still love

  • The Forbidden Affair: The Man I Should Never Have Known   Natalia is still distant from me

    Marcus' POVNatalia is still distant from me. I understand her, but sometimes I feel like giving up. This situation is getting harder for me. We live in the same house, but it feels like we are strangers.“Daddy, why do you not sleep beside Mommy anymore? Are you two fighting?” Belle asked. I looked at Natalia, who glanced at our daughter.“Ah, no, sweetie. It is just that Toper is used to sleeping beside Mommy, so he is with her for now,” I said, scratching my head.“But I am not scared even if you are not beside me when I sleep. Because I am a big girl now,” Belle explained.“Toper is still a baby, sweetie. He is not used to sleeping alone yet,” I said with a sigh. I really miss sleeping beside my wife, but that feels impossible now.“Mama, let us go to the mall! Sister and I want to play at Toy Kingdom,” Toper said. I smiled, seeing how close the two of them are.“We will go on Saturday. Is that okay with you, sweetheart?” I said when Natalia stayed quiet. Our youngest lit up with
