Kendrix I spent the whole of the week in Dilgem, I barely had time to rest or do anything, I couldn’t even call Ariel to tell her how I was doing and she called me a couple of times but I was always not there when she called and when I finally got the time to go through my phone, it would be too late to call her as she would already be sleeping. It was my last day in Dilgem and everything was finally sorted out. I was currently seated with some of the people I spent the whole week working with, we decided to have a few drinks since it was my last night in Dilgem and we had finally been able to sort out the troubles in the vineyard and winery so I suggested a night out to thank them for putting so much effort into making sure that the issues surrounding the vine, tomorrow, I have to be in O-when because Ariel’s best friend’s wedding was the next day and I promised her that I will attend with her. I already know she would be beyond mad at me for not calling her since I got here but I

Kendrix“Why? I know you told me your reason already but why did you end things with us? I was inconsolable for years after you left, I blamed myself for failing to protect you,”I told her. She looked remorseful. “I am sorry, Ken, but I did what I had to, it wasn’t my first time leaving a place behind and I didn’t know if it was my last, I didn’t want to drag you with me,”She explained. “I understand that now and I am glad you are okay, ahhhhhh,”I let out, letting go of the guilt that I had felt for years, she was okay, she was never in the fire and she was doing fine and running a successful business. I turned to see her watching me, our eyes met and there was a sudden shift in the air, I saw her lean towards me and stayed put, not doing anything even when her hand fell on my lap and we were practically face to face, I knew she was going to kiss me and I didn’t stop her. Our lips met in a tender kiss and held, I inhaled deeply, her lips, even though it has been years, I didn’t f

“Good morning people, I came to get the bride, the stylist and make-up artist will be here soon, we don’t want to be late,”I said when they woke up. her mom and dad said hi while Rose judgingly followed me, she wasn’t much of a morning person which was understandable. The pregnancy made it worse. Everything about the preparation for the ceremony went well, before ten am, the bride was ready and it was just for everyone to move to the chapel where the wedding ceremony was to be held. I walked out of Rose’s room talking to a guest who was finding their way to the chapel and giving directions when a familiar voice called my name from downstairs, I didn’t want to assume so I walked faster towards the stairs and there he stood at the bottom of the stairs, waving at me and smiling. “Hey, Arielyn,”He called, I stood there, hoping that I wasn’t imagining things, I called Raul earlier and he didn’t mention him being back so I wasn’t so convinced that he could just be back now, except Raul k

Kendrix I woke up to my phone ringing, I picked it up and reduced the volume so as not to wake Arielyn up, she was sleeping so peacefully. I glared at my screen wondering why the fucker was calling me so early in the morning when it is not like we have any business. Reluctantly, I took my phone and got out of my room as I didn’t want to disturb Arielyn with a phone call so early in the morning. “What do you want, Jordan?”I asked when I was sure she couldn’t hear me. I sat on the sofa in my gym room, still sleepy. “You finally returned to O-when, I see,”Jordan said. I don’t know how he knew I was out of O-when and I didn’t care either, I just wanted to know why he was calling me so early in the morning. “Can we skip the fake greeting part or whatever this is and go to the reason why you called me so early on Sunday morning? Surely, you didn’t call to check up on me,”I let out. maybe he was calling to try and talk me out of getting the throne again, like I was ever going to chang

Arielyn. Kendrix was back with me, Rose was happily married and currently out of O-when for her honeymoon and everything was kind of fine but I couldn’t help the feeling that settled on me that everything wasn’t okay, for one, Ken was a lot calmer and barely said anything. We spent the whole of Sunday together doing couple things but I felt like he was not totally himself, it was as if something happened in Dilgem that he couldn’t bring himself to tell me, I didn’t want to be nosy so I just let him have his quiet time and hoped that he would get over what is wrong soon or at least talk to me about it. I did ask him if what he went to do was successful and he said it was, he even told me he got the Orient, which means he was almost done, all he had to do was hand it over to his father so I just couldn’t figure out why he was moody, withdrawn and sometimes lost in his thoughts. Three days after Rose’s wedding, I decided that I couldn’t take it anymore, I knew he was hiding something f
