Only seconds passed but to Nova it looked like years. She took slow deliberate steps as she approached Eryx’s house. She held the papers in her hands as doubt spiraled around her.Was she doing the right thing? She had asked herself several times. She pushed the impulsive thought to one side as she opened the heavy metallic door.As soon as she entered she was stopped by Eryx's voice. “What are you doing here Nova, I told you I wouldn't see you until you fulfill your part of the plan”.He somehow felt that she wasn't going to go through with it and even if she did, he would have to pull some more strings.“Here”. She handed him the papers without an expression on her delicate face.A sharp gasp escaped his lips, followed by a slow, disbelieving grin that spread wider than ever before. His eyes darted between the prize in his hands and the devastation left in his wake, sparkling with a manic blend of triumph and disbelief. For a moment, he stood frozen, as though his mind struggled to
“You fucking disgusts me Zephyr. Even at times like this you are still speaking bad of him. He didn't deserve any of the brutal things you did to him”. You could see anger and regret in her eyes at the same time.“Brutal”? Zephyr could not help but scoff. “You see that's the problem Nova, you have always been blind simply because he portrayed himself better”. His deep voice vibrated with the molecules of the atmosphere.“What you forget is that sometimes the devil you know is better than the angel you don't know. The alcohol in his system has started to wear off. You judge according to what you see. What about what you don't know?” He lowered his voice but ensured it was loud enough.“ENOUGH”! She yelled at him. “You are the problem, Zeph and Eryx would forever be an angel to me. The angel who saved me, built my career and helped raise my son”.“No nova. I fucked up years ago but he isn't near an angel. Instead he is something intricate and complex”. He tried to make gestures with his
Her mouth opened, but only a choked whisper escaped, her voice breaking, "How could you?"And in that instant, the world seemed to crumble beneath her feet. Every ounce of doubt from a moment ago was replaced by an unbearable wave of guilt and shame. Her expression was a mirror reflecting the destruction wrought on something you never intended to shatter.“No no. It's not what you think Nova”. His voice was filled with manipulation as he ran towards her and at the same time struggled to put on his pants.Jane didn't even bother to cover up. To her it was an opportunity for Nova to know who eryx was and she wasn't going to waste this opportunity. So she was just going to watch.“She is a nobody flower. I only used her to while away time”.“Don't you dare say that to me eryx. What I want to know is why you called her Nova”. She barked with dangerous emotions in her eyes.Eryx took a deep breath as realization fell on him. She caught him already so he couldn't hide anything.“Don't you s
“Just answer me, Eryx. Everything you did for me was just so you could keep me away from him right?”.Eryx couldn't look into her eyes. His hands were vibrating and he felt as though something heavy had been placed upon his chest. When triumph changed Into something else.“You don't have to believe anything he says Nova”. “You know how he is, you know he would do anything to keep us apart and apart”. His eyes darted from her hands to her face.Nova nodded her head in disbelief. “Then why did you want power, why do you feel insecure about me. Why do I feel like you are lying?” She yelled for the upteen time.“Umm.. Eryx I think I will come some other time”. Jane has gotten tired of the endless arguments. She had worn her clothes and walked away not without walking close to Nova “He fucks so well. She hissed before leaving immediately”, not giving Eryx the chance to hear her.Nova ought to feel pain, jealousy and betrayal. However she just felt numb. It was a feeling that wasn't new to
“No Eryx. You deceived me for years. You made me believe Zephyr hated me, you made me destroy him”. A tremor flickered at the corners of her mouth, pulling it downward, and her jaw tightened.“You know how much I loved zephyr. He saved me from my misery, loved and married me without even caring about my background. Do you know how I ..I felt when I thought he abandoned me because of Tiana”. She stuttered and tears gathered around the corners of her fragile eyes.“I don't regret what I did and I will do.it again if I have to”. “And you can't blame me, Nova”. He laughed bitterly, shaking his head. "When we were kids, it was little things like my toys, my books,my father's love,my spot at the dinner table. I’d find my favorite things broken or gone, and he’d just smirk like it was some game." His voice cracked, and he took a steadying breath.“I didn't really care if my mother paid no attention to me. But tell me why I would love that man so much but yet he hated me”. He added."It didn
Eryx was startled for a second. He didn't understand how Zephyr was suddenly here.Zephyr immediately came and took Nova from Eryx.” Nova, Nova are you fine”. He shook her several times but there was only a weak response. She didn't look good and it didn't look like something regular was wrong with her.“What did you do to her Eryx”. He turned to his brother, devastation filled in his eyes.“How..how are you here?” Eryx ignored the most important question at that time.“I followed her here because I was the one who told her to come here”.Eryx scoffed at his brother, then a loud laughter followed suit. “So what were you trying to do? You were trying to spoil my reputation in front of her”. He asked with a sinister expression.Zephyr looked at Nova one more time and she was still breathing. He knew she had to be taken to the hospital. So he took her closer to his arms and raised her up.“Well guess what, your mission was successful”. He blocked Zephyr's way, preventing him from rushing
Zephyr was literally sitting on the floor with a heavy heart and confused mind. This was just so sudden to him. The light at the top of the intensive care unit had gone off indicating that whatever intensive care was given to Nova was over.The door opened and Nova was wheeled in a stretcher by the nurses. Zephyr stood up almost as if he had been chased by a dog.“How is she?” he said as he rushed to Nova who looked so pale, her lips were lighter and her eyelids would flicker from time to time, however her beauty did not falter, she was still the most beautiful woman he had set his eyes on.“She is now stable”. You can stay by her side sir. The doctor said with politeness in his voice and character.After about thirty minutes and after Nova Nova had been moved from the intensive care unit to her personal ward she finally woke up and the first person she saw was zephyr.“Zephyr”, she whispered his name with a weak voice. Zephyr who was already lost in thoughts immediately pulled out of
“Mummy mummy”, little Xavier immediately ran towards his mother, he climbed her not minding the fact that she was sick. Afterall he was just a child.“No little man you can't sit on mummy like that okay”. He took the boy into his arms.“Daddy, what happened to mummy? Do you think she will be fine?” He asked with anxiousness filled in his voice.“Don't worry my boy, your mother is the strongest woman on earth”. He hated the fact that he had to lie to the little boy but how could he be brutal? How could he tell the boy that his mother had less than three months to live.Nova was so weak but she could feel the love of Zephyr for their son, he was a good man And he was going to take perfect care of their son when she was gone and that made her heart feel at peace.“Umm, I will just stay outside”. Bailey, the nanny who had brought Xavier chirped in. She gave them privacy.The family of three hugged each other and for a very long time Zephyr felt complete again.But just when you think that
Outline 3So what is your plan now? She asked him after he had finished speaking.You are going to stay here Willow, you can't go out, you can't try to run away, neither can you act smart, No cell phone. He spoke with a stoic face. He was damn serious, he had no plans at all but he hoped time moved he would know what to do.You are joking right, what do you think this is?Some movie or what. I can't stay here Kevin, I am getting married and I need to do it fast since you destroyed the last one…..She couldn't even continue as Kevin threw something in anger. But not at her, You are not getting married Nova over my dead body. He said, I would rather burn in the pit of hell than let you get married to someone else. After saying that he made his way upstairs leaving her there. He didn't want to continue to hear whatever she was saying because it only made him look like a bad person. As he walked he thought how disastrous the feeling of letting her get married to Alex could be.It could hav

It started after we had a fight, Kev. Alex was the person here for me and we fell In love. She said to him when deep down she knew it was a lie.She blinked more than usual, like she could blink away the sting behind her eyes, and every now and then, she’d look down at her hands, fidgeting.Why lie to him, Alex interrupted behind her. Kevin was his friend, yes. But that wasn't going to stop him from getting what he wanted, what he wanted wasn't Willow,but was the benefit that came with it The merger with one of the most popular tech companies in the world as well as multiple sponsorship and partnership that would help his company seer high and help build his name around the globe.Alex was a kind of person that only cared about wealth and luxuries, women were not part. All these he could get but only on one condition. To agree to marry the daughter of the willow family. He didn't even know to whom he was getting married at first.Until he met her, and she was willing as well. And she

“Don't you know how to do your damn work. Eryx yelled over the phone. You know how much this deal means to me and don”. He said, referring to an underground boss.“I….I am so sorry sir. I am going to fix this”. A timid voice behind the phone panicked.“You fucking do that. Or else your wretched mother won't make it to another day”. He threatened without mercy nor without a flinch in his face.As soon as he finished talking, he slammed the phone to the floor. “FUCK, FUCK”. he yelled out. This wasn't the plan. Why was the business having problems in his tenure? The only thing he did was gamble a little. How did it end up affecting him? He thought In silence.But maybe he should have asked himself what he gambled or his condition of gambling. He gambled into partnership with the Mafia.He remembered vividly how it all played out. At first he was boasting about how good he was at these games and how no one could beat him. Even the don. “If I lose I will give up the Lockwood, holdings and
