“You overheard us,” he said, his voice low and shaky.“You weren't so hushed about it. But I get it, you weren't expecting me to be in Aaron's room at all.”“Celeste—”“No, Godric. You have kept me in the dark about so many things and it doesn't even occur to you that you're becoming more suffocating by the moment, and right now I can't help but feel like a prisoner in your home. You have no idea how that makes me feel,” I said in one breath and exhaled afterward like I had finally gotten a heavy weight off my chest.His gaze stayed fixed on me but he didn't utter a word. When his voice finally sliced through the silence, it was low and hollow in a way that made me regret the outburst.“I'm sorry if my will to protect you suffocates you,” he said slowly, like he was being careful with his words. “I never meant to hurt you. I wish there was a... a better way to say it. And sure, please go ahead. Victor will be here to take you home when you're done.”I sat through the whole conversatio

“Aaron, I understand you might want a brother. But there's no record of you having a twin. The hospital would have told me.”“That hospital don't know.”“Okay. Okay… so, where is this twin?”He looked toward the door and his lips pursed, like he was contemplating whether or not I could be trusted with that information.I lowered myself to my knees and made him sit on the edge of his bed.“You can trust me. You know that, right?”He shook his head, and when I pressed him for answers, he leaned over my shoulder to whisper.“You are friends with that woman...”“Steph—”He nodded. “Randy disappeared the day she visited Mom.”My heart stuttered and something dropped within me. I felt a minute-long heartache, and the scenes from the hotel returned to my mind.I had my suspicions, but Aaron could be wrong and it might have been someone who looked like Stephanie. How do I bring up such a thing with her when she's trying to get over her sister's death?I tapped him on the back and tried to put

“Fourth Avenue. Hilltop Sanctuary.” I mumbled to myself, fiddling with the hem of my blouse. Somehow, the thought of a missing link in my ex-husband's identity made me question Godric's. And even now, it hasn't left my thoughts.“If it's really his doing, then I must insist you stay inside the house as often as you can. Besides, Ric wants you to begin your treatment today...” my brother said, his voice low and steady. The way his gaze flicked around made my eyes wander with him, but I guessed it was because he was worried about my safety.“I cannot go there today. There's someplace I need to go...”“No. You're staying home,” he reiterated with finality in his voice, before walking away, his shoulders squared with authority and every step even — like a man who had been practicing to fill a role all his life.Once he was out of sight, Stephanie closed the space between us and touched my arm.“Where is that?”“Sorry...”“You wanted to go someplace. Where?”“Oh! That.” I sighed and dragge

“Do you not want me?”It repeated in my head more than five times. I looked around, trying to keep my gaze off him, but his hand gently turned my face back to his.“Maybe this is not about Emilia. Maybe this is not about your past. Maybe I'm just not the kind of man you want...”I cleared my throat and jerked to my feet, my eyes darting everywhere but at him. “I should probably go.”“No. We should talk about this. Tell me. Is there some other man...”“No, Ric. No. Not that.”“Then what is it, Celeste? Do you not know how badly I want to have you?”My heart stuttered. I blinked repeatedly, my breath shallow in my throat. But I didn't turn away this time.“I'm too broken to love again, Godric. I told you.”“Then let me try to mend you. A chance is all I ask for. Be my wife.”“Godric, what if I don't wake up tomorrow? What if I'm dead before we even get to have our honeymoon? What if I never get to have a baby for you? Would you want this again if you could go back in time and have it?”

“ I mean. Forgive us.”She tightened her fist. My eyes moved to the figure right next to her. Eyes slant, he stood stiff by her side, his hands dipped in his pockets. I drag my eyes away, my thoughts centered on Godric.“Did he just change his mind?” I thought worriedly. What if it makes me appear like a jealous wife? What's he going to think of me? Once they were gone, and his attention was back on me, I apologized. “ I didn't mean to. It was thoughtless and…”“ Disappointing. I imagined you wanted me home with you and all for you.”I gulped loudly, pulling my eyes away. He chuckled and lifted my face. “ You make me want to make out so badly.”Ahem!I snapped my neck in the direction, and met Victor leaning against the wall by the television set up. “ Brother…”“ You remember me at last.” He frowned and loped outside. “ I think I should go talk to him,” I said to Godric and met a slight pout. “ He can take care of himself.”“ And so can you.” I retorted and a smile made his face
When He Became My Shelter: The Billionaire's Vow Chapter Ten: For You
Not the best time to discover that my marriage wasn't a matter of chance. Lawrence West, or whatever his real name is, didn't bump into me. He chose me.Our route opened up to the stairs, and we were soon rushing down at the speed of light. I tried not to think about it, but deep inside me I had surmised that the night guard must be the reason behind the attack. For now, I must get out of here alive. We were soon back inside the rain, ending up in an alley after the stairs ended. We kept our heads low, and walked on, until we were safe away from public attention. “ Godric’s home is secure. I know the address.” I told her, hoping to convince her to come with me. “ We have a son. It would be best if we met in his house.”“ You have a son with Godric Banks?”“ Sorry. I forgot to mention he's adopted.” I explained, and watched her let out a deep breath. The kind that marks relief of some kind. I shrug the voice at the back of my head, and strutted next to her. “What if they had something
