LIZA POVWith the due date drawing nigh, life became a mission impossible, harder than I had ever hoped for. Moving around became a pain in the ass because of my oh-so sore and painful body and swollen feet. I missed out on a lot of things I found solitude and confinement in because I was so big that I had to be carried around. Imagine being pulled out of the tub after bathing because I couldn’t do it myself! Sucks right?I really had to give up the idea of bathtubs because of the very said reasons. And if I were, to be honest, showers were only fun with Dawn around!And with him still preoccupied with the affairs of Blade Inc. and saving it from the cruel fate that was bestowed upon it by that wingless witch, he really didn’t have time to come pamper me, although my poor man did find and schedule even a few hours to be with me, at least once in a week. It was so humbling to see him trying to squeeze me in despite his busy schedule, and I couldn’t ask for more. With the evident diffi

DAWN POVAs soon as the words left Gail’s mouth; I swear all the reigns of hell broke loose!In all my life, ever since I descended to this unfortunate earth, I have never felt that kind of panic! Like ever. I was so shaken it was as if the baby would drop at the very instant. And God help me if that happened; I am sure I was going to pee my pants right in front of everyone!After the announcement, all I could think of was getting Liza to the hospital, or somewhere suitable for her to bring our baby to the world. Every word that was said after that all sounded like a hollow stream and everything that happened was blurr. Nothing in this world mattered! Not the riches and the unwavering hatred, nothing!Now here we were, nine hours later in the hospital with her dressed in a long white hospital gown, her big belly pushed outwards with me hugging her from behind. Her tummy was cradled safely in my hands as I tried to lift the weight from her. She was debilitated, definitely out of it and

DAWN POVThe time was a little after 9 am when the car stopped in front of Blade Inc. headquarters. We were well 7 minutes late but nothing inside of me seemed to be unnerved or let’s say; out of place.I had all the evidence I needed to mask down the bitch and her cabal of snakes that she slithered with, so no one or nothing was fit enough to fill my mouth with a bitter taste.That and the fact that I was holding a jewel in my arms, with my queen by my side. So yeah, that's all about it. Surrounding myself with the people whom I’d walk the line for was all I could possibly need. Even if today didn’t work out like we had hoped, despite all the evidence I had against Janelle and everything needed to claim my rights over the company, I had everything. My wife and my child. That was the only trophy I needed!The door to my right opened and I stepped outside, shielding my sleeping daughter in my arms with her gazillion shawls, and then pulled her closer to my chest. When she was locked an

DAWN POVIt was over!Good God, it was finally over. I had a full claim over Blade Inc. My mother’s legacy; that was left to her by her parents and ancestors before them. A dynasty that carried the blood and sweat of all the Blades. And it was all thanks to the world’s most badass woman I have ever known.I may have tried to save the company all on my own, reach out to some contacts and use favors that were indebted to me, use all of my connections and Adamson’s, now that he was atoning for his sins. But knowing that Elizabeth went all out and beyond to help save something I held so dear, despite everything I have put her through, was so humbling.It was not a strange fact that I had disrupted her life, and dumped something she wasn’t ready for, because of my greed. My selfishness. Forcing that pregnancy on her was something that made me feel small with every passing day. Although it led to the world’s most beautiful little girl with a head full of thick black curls, the little one tha

DAWN POV“ARE YOU SURE THAT IS WHAT YOU WANT TO DO, SON?”My father’s voice boomed from the other end of the speaker. I nodded to no one in particular since I was alone standing on the balcony, just a few minutes before the sun came spilling from behind the horizon.I looked back into the bedroom, on the bed, where an angel was sprawled comfortably with her black curls spread all over the pillow. She had one small, smooth, and velvety hand covering her eyes, shielding her face from the morning sun. I don't know how she managed, but she had to be beautiful even without trying.“I cannot think of the perfect time to do it. And there’s really no one I know who is worthy enough to run it than her.” I replied to my dad and turned back to where I was standing,“Hmmm. If that’s what you want, then okay. I do know that it will be in good hands, and I trust her, just like you do.” He stated, and I could hear the relief in his voice. I smiled to myself and looked down,“Thanks, dad.” “Oh, it’s
