End Of The Road For Both Brothers

CHAPTER 171NATALIE'S POV"Get up and fight me."I watched my best friend hovering over Luke's weak, bloodied frame.Angry. Vengeful. Sweaty. Poised to throw more punches.Delia's private investigators were able to track Jordan and his brother. It's been three days since they've been in our custody. Three days of torture for Luke.Delia had Luke engage her in a fight as her revenge for what she'd gone through when she'd been kidnapped by him.And every day of that one-hour physical fight, he lost. Woefully. Pitifully.On the second day, Delia had landed an uppercut that ended up displacing two of his teeth.She had blackened one of his eyes; it was painfully swollen. While she had not a scratch."Please, this is torture," Jordan begged. "You've proven your point, Delia. You can fight and can beat him."He was chained to his seat and made to watch her beat his younger brother every day.Delia lifted one of her feet in a midair kick. Jordan fell backwards, his chair beneath him. He whee

Love And Forgiveness

CHAPTER 172ZYLIAH'S POVI watched the kids have fun in the water. At the rate they played in the water, it was a wonder they hadn't caught cold yet.Although, they were always dressed warmly after a long time in the pool and given warm beverages to drink. Sometimes, Grandma Charlotte would have them take prescribed drugs for kids to fight against the cold."Waylen. Casper. Alexa," I called out to them in greeting.Only Alexa waved back, yelling, "Would you like to join us?""Have fun, darling." My smile wouldn't form completely.Tears burned the back of my throat. I've been trying to no avail. They wouldn't even look at me. I wondered how long it would take for my kids to forgive their mother.Leaving them the first time had been brutal. The second time had been no fault of mine, but they were too young to understand.I could give them time, but I was scared that they might never get around to forgiving me.A figure emerged from the house. I turned to see it was Sayge. I looked away

Feelings For Each Other

CHAPTER 173ZYLIAH'S POVIt was ninety minutes, give or take, that I, Sayge, and the kids were in the game room.We engaged in different games, posing as different virtual characters in each of these games.I was the first to grow tired but left them to keep playing. Sayge joined me twenty minutes later.Comfortably relaxed on the sofa while I watched the kids continue playing, I felt lighter than I'd felt two hours ago."Tired?" Sayge adjusted so he was facing me.The game room was semi-dark with dull lights on. The bright lights were turned off.The only bright lights were those from the screens the kids were playing with."Wonderfully so."I found it difficult to take my eyes off him as he also didn't avert his gaze.Our eyes locked in, and my body reacted strongly to the emotions riddling his topaz blues. They affected me, and I couldn't deny it even if I wanted to."Why didn't you tell me?" He asked, his gaze slowly trailing down to my lips.I gulped, clearing my throat to get hi

A Broken Heart

CHAPTER 174ZYLIAH'S POV"Why are you kissing her, Sayge?"It was none other than Claire, bringing her melodrama with her.By this time, Sayge and I had broken apart. I turned to the kids. "Hey babies. Go look for your nannies and tell them to make you each a cup of hot chocolate.""But we want to still play the game.""Will someone talk to me?!" Claire was still drowning in her self-righteous fury, oblivious to the fact that children were present."Keep your voice down and your tone calm; there are kids around," I told her, holding myself back from actually yelling in her face."You bitch! Did you think of the kids before you shamelessly started sucking his face?!""Claire!"The warning from just the call of her name was loud and clear, forcing her to bite her tongue while she proceeded to throw glares at me."Kids, go find your nannies and have them make you something to eat. You're hungry, yeah?" Sayge's tone no longer held the sharpness and anger when he addressed his kids.The th

Saved By Her New Date

CHAPTER 175ZYLIAH'S POV"Yes, I am. Is something wrong?" He lifted my tear-streaked face to his, wiping tears with his thumb.He lowered his head to drop a soft peck between my eyebrows."Let's go have a seat."That was when I saw I was already in the living room. He gently pulled me to sit with him on the sofa.I sniffled, wiping the rest of my tears. It was embarrassing having him see me like this, especially with what the reason behind it was. I'd accepted to date him, yet I was crying over another guy."So, care to tell me why you're crying?" He caressed my back.We were yet to have sex, and I didn't see myself going there with him anytime soon, but he was the only guy, after Sayge, that I'd felt so comfortable with.Having sex with him wasn't going to be a problem, but I had thought I didn't want to betray Sayge by sleeping with someone else. Stupid me.All this time, I'd been thinking he was faithful even though he was angry. He had openly confessed to me, so I thought if he lo

A Fight Between Mother And Daughter

CHAPTER 176SABRINA'S POV"Yes! He has sent the money, Mom." I wriggled my body joyfully."Good for you," Mom said dully. "Maybe you can give me some to continue with my plan?"Ever since she'd found out her boy toy—yes, she finally told me everything about her relationship outside her matrimonial home—and his brother had played a fast one on her, she'd been lackluster.At first there was the anger and the zeal to find them and make them pay, but recently, she'd lost that zeal. And it had to do with the fact that there was no money to hire a private investigator or any hired killer to hunt them down.Even hunting them down required money and resources, none of which were available.This ate her up. She was no longer the healthy-looking woman with a lively expression. She was all despair and unhappiness. Looking like she'd given up.Giving her out of this money to continue her plan seemed like a waste of money we were barely getting."Mom, you know I need to rent a small apartment so w

Reunited With Her Best Friends

CHAPTER 177ZYLIAH'S POV"I had massive fun this afternoon, Kevin." I edged forward to bring his face close enough to drop a kiss on his mouth.He trapped my lips with his, elongating the kiss. It was sweet, actually. And he was a gentleman to the core. No inappropriate words or touchy-feely that made me feel objectified or uncomfortable.Hell, the whole afternoon unplanned date had even gone better than I'd thought. He didn't bring up what happened earlier on. Didn't force me to talk about it.I knew he would be interested in knowing; he just wanted to respect my space, and if I wanted to tell him, it should be on my own time and of my own accord.He broke off the kiss."I'm glad you did. Feel better now?" He tenderly tucked a wild strand behind my ear, brushing my face in the process.I nodded. "Yes. All thanks to you.""I'm glad you do feel better."Moments of silence that were anything but awkward. It was more warm and comfortable. His eyes roamed my face; he had a smile on."I'll

Meeting With His Father

CHAPTER 178FYNN'S POV"How did you get out of prison?" I sat down on the seat opposite his in the restaurant he'd picked out for us to meet. It was a local one.He wore a hoodie and glasses despite it being evening. It was probably a disguise so he wouldn't be recognized.I was surprised when I got a call from my dad, asking to meet. I never thought I would be seeing him anytime soon, if ever."You must think so little of me, Fynn. How do you think you and Zyliah left prison when Sayge ordered your arrest?" His eyes narrowed slightly, his brows marred with lines that sat between angry and annoyed.He was offended—offended I'd thought he wouldn't be able to come out of prison."So you would let me die in prison?" he said, sounding like an offended five-year-old."You called. What's the emergency?" My tone was direct and sharp, purposefully ignoring his words, as I definitely didn't want to fall for whatever tricks he had planned.His mouth started to curve in a sneer, but he stopped h

Desperate Sayge

CHAPTER 179ZYLIAH'S POV"I can't believe Victoria." I shook my head ruefully, feeling a sense of pity for the man who had disowned me because of his other family.Maybe he didn't deserve my pity. "No, he definitely didn't deserve my pity," I corrected, seeing as he also wanted to get my company from me after losing it through his carelessness.If I was being honest, I knew Sayge was telling the truth when he told me my father was a bad man.The company was never his—well, partly his, but never wholly his. He was supposed to be partners with Sayge's father but had let greediness take over him.Well, he was getting whatever he deserved. Karma had come for him."She got what she deserved," Grandma Charlotte contributed. She was currently relaxing in her favorite massage chair. "She tried to steal from her husband but got scammed. Sometimes, Karma is a funny trickster."My best friends and I agreed. "I cannot even believe that I went through all of what I went through just to get Jordan

Broken Hearts

CHAPTER 180ZYLIAH'S POV"Stop saying that, Zyliah. I want you. I have fucking confessed my feelings to you before now. I told you how much I am in love with you! Don't you believe that?" The raw emotions glazing his eyes almost made me want to drop this argument and go to him.It almost made me want to forget how hurt I was and allow myself to be wrapped in his embrace.But no! No, I wouldn't do any of that. I won't let myself become mush in his presence because, right now, that is exactly what he is trying to make me be."No." Strands of my hair came loose from my bun from shaking my head too hard—it was as if I was trying to convince myself that not believing him was the right thing. "No, I do not believe that, Sayge."He took a step closer; I went back two steps. "Stay where you are, Sayge. Do not come closer."I wiped tears that had fallen and blinked back the rest that were threatening to fall. No more crying. I would talk this out like a mature adult and walk away."Sayge, it i
