Nicky expertly held the tiger with the help of some Animal Control Unit officers."Where did this albino come from?" Nicky asked the officer."From the jungle of Zambia.""Zambia?" Nicky repeated as he slowly injected the tiger with medicine. He used to be a professional."Yes. She was caught by the locals and brought in by the black market. Luckily, she was saved and delivered here in California just a few days ago," explained the officer."So... it's a girl! Geez. So ferocious, I thought she's a boy," Nicky said with a smile, patting the tiger on the head that was now slowly closing its eyes. Effect of sleeping pills."Thank you for your help... Miss Nicky Alphonse, right?" the officer also said smiling.Why is that? Does the officer know Nicky's name? No. They seem to have known each other for a long time."No sweat. I suggest you transfer this little fellow to a cold weather environment with lots of natural trees. Not these bunch of trash," Nicky pointed to the trees. "It would be

Cole's POVThe ride from Vendomme to Silicon Valley was quick. Germany is also the driver and he drives smoothly.I was a little nervous because I didn't know what Bennet was calling me for. And why does it need to be in RedSphere? He can just tell at home if he really is.It must be something about business. That's the only conclusion I have.We arrived at RedSphere, earlier than I expected. Germany immediately dialed with his cell phone as we walked into the big company."Ma'am, President Leofwin is still attending a meeting. Do you mind if I send you to his office? You can wait for him there," Germany replied.I just nodded. My anticipation level is increasing making me nervous. Plus, some employees who happened to be passing by were even looking at me.What? Am I ugly? Do I look like a witch? I looked at myself. Not at all. I just look... normal.Germany and I took the elevator to the 110th floor. When we got there, he took me to a large, fragrant and very clean room.Office of th

Are we going to stay the night at your parent's house?" I asked as we exited the elevator."Do you want to?" he asked back."Do you want?" I asked again.Bennet shrugged his shoulders again. "I wanna go home. With you."Oops. My heart is regodon-de-honor again."To Sephiroth?""Nope. I have a house here in Verona of my own."Oh, I don't know that. I just nodded.We were greeted by Bennet's other staff who immediately bowed when they saw us in the lobby. They said "good evening Sir" to Bennet in unison. The man is just a Dedma."That house, when we have our firstborn. I will name it after him," Bennet added as we boarded the limousine car.It was as if I was touched by what Bennet said. Firstborn. Our first child. He's talking about our supposed firstborn. My heart just can't take it. It's good to hear that it hurts too much. I remained silent because something was blocking my throat."I just hope he will be a boy. I've been dreaming of a boy first born then a girl after him. Wouldn't

Cole POVI put a glass of water in front of Nicky. "Stop crying, drink this," I said.Nicky wiped away a tear before pouring water into the glass.Nicky's face is all red because of crying. Maybe he was shocked to learn that Bennet only married me (her) because of arrogance."I... I... I have no idea that Bennet could do that! Well, I know that he loved Kelly all his life..."Ouch."... but did that just for revenge? And here I thought he loved me when we were together!" Bennet snapped.I know Nicky and Bennet's relationship was not that long. In fact, it only took months. Based on the e-mail my twin used to have with me, Bennet ended it up because he said it's not working, their relationship is as cold as ice. Is Nicky that numb to fool himself and say that Bennet loved him? Rubbish.Or maybe it was Bennet's fault. Bennet made my twin feel loved then dumped her. A cruel man he was.Thank you! But it seems... that's not the Bennet I knew. In fact, he's warm and caring. Yes, he will ye

"Hey! Bennet! Bennet!"I stopped eating when I heard the old man's voice. When I turned around I saw President Gunford running towards me.Bennet stopped laughing and also looked at the nearby old man. "Yeah?""Bennet, thank god you're still here! The drinking party! We're going there!"I was stunned. Drinking Party? So there are still parties after this?"Sorry, Nicky dear, only for boys," the old man turned to me.oh, Only men? Just them?"We won the event, so you don't have to worry. You have a prize," the old man added, patting me on the shoulder.My eyes widened. "We won?! Really?!""Yeah!""What's the prize? Is it a house and a lot? Million pesos? What?""Crazy," Bennet interjected.I frowned at the man. "Why? Bad dreams?"He didn't speak.President Gunford laughed. "Silly. Nothing like that. It's my gift to you for being a cute partner!"Wow. I'm shy. They say it's cute. Oh hey.I see that Bennet seems relieved by the situation. His eyes roll around and his eyebrows rise and fa
