Lucas povMy family were having a good time together. I was on a business while my wife was with the children. I have a lot of things to do.I've been a busy rat since Raymond was here, now that he was arrested I know very well that I have a lot of things to do.The house became noisy with the children shouting and my wife trying to put them in order."Why don't you keep them together. I am busy right now." I shouted hoping that Elena would hear.After a few seconds everything went back to how it was. The kids continued with what they were doing, now I had lost concentration with what I was doing. This was important and I didn't want to lose it. "Let me go." One of the kids shouted."Shit! They aren't going to let me hear something." I complained and hit the table out of anger.I got up from the table to warn them. When I got to where they were, I got confused.They seemed all busy so where was the noise coming from?"They are disturbing me." I complained to Elena."I'm trying my b

: Raymond's povEver since I had an issue and got injured Lily had been my pillar. I don't know how much I would have done if she didn't help me.I have always wished to help her but I keep getting the one to be helped. For many times I had tried to attack those people and it never ended well.She has been the one holding me together and that was what kept me up till now.With Lily's presence everyday, I noticed that I began to miss her and wanted her around all the time.The drugs that were administered to me didn't take long to perform its work.I was really happy that I was getting back on my feet.I still had a lot of things to do and I didn't want to go there weakly. The only thing that I couldn't fight was the trauma that I faced.Every night I had to have a bad dream about everything that has been happening. I didn't have to think about this.I try to fight this every time and it keeps coming. It was something that I was struggling with for a long time.I had always tried to hi

Raymond's P.O.V Drakon came to the manor early in the morning without informing of his visit.I saw him already seated in the living room with a bottle of tequila set on the table before him. His men stood guard at the door, and Lily was in the kitchen making breakfast. I slipped into the kitchen, careful not to alert him that I was awake and went to meet Lily making breakfast. “How long have you been awake?” I whispered to her, but she brushed past me as she trotted towards the cabinet and brought out a tea cup.I followed behind, quietly making an attempt to engage her in a conversation, but she refused to say a word to me.Annoyed, I grabbed the cup of coffee from her hand and set it down on the kitchen counter. “Is this about last night?” I asked her.She scoffed. “You threatened to lock me up,” she reminded me. “I didn't even ask to be here, but you insisted that I stay here with you.”Her voice was faint and soft, like a gentle whirling wind on a cold winter night.“And him

Lily's P.O.V I barely got any sleep all through the night, my mind unable to get the image of Raymond's body and touch out of my head. I shouldn't have kissed him, but in that moment, I didn't know what else to do, or how else to show him just how worried I had been about him.Some minutes after I had gone up to my bedroom, Raymond came knockin on the door. "Lily:," he called out to me, but I stayed quiet and pretended to be asleep.he knocked again. This time, it was more gentle than the last, but I still didn't respond. "Lily," his voice cut through the door. "I know you're awake, and I know you can hear me." He said with such conviction."I'm home, and everything went well with Dominic today. I'll see you in the morning," he briefed me and acted like nothing had happened when he came back home. I sat upright on the bed, listening as he walked away from the door and the sound of his footsteps disappeared from the hallway. He was trying to torture me. I was the one who strongly wa

Raymond's P.O.VThe silence of the night was deafening, broken only the steady hum of my car engine.My hands gripped the steering wheel a little to tight ad I navigated the winding road to Dominic's estate.My mind was plagued with thought's of Lily, the way her face fell when I told her I had to cut our evening short in other to respond to Dominic's call.I knew I had ruined what was supposed to be a queit night. A night for just the both of us, but I was also this close to swaying Dominic to believe that I was working for him and no one else. But this knowledge and guilt didn't make the guilt I felt any easier. The unease of leaving Lily at home gnawed at me, and I couldn't shake the feeling that something was off, that I had left her vulnerable. “Focus Raymond!” I scolded myself, forcing myself to keep my head straight and my eyes peered on the road. It was difficult, but I didn't stop until I was finally able to push thoughts of Lily and my growing anxiety to the back of my mi
