CHAPTER 20. His daughter… The night grew fascinating and windy. Their hairs flew along with the rhythm of winds. Raven smiled chastely when Kiara’s hair strands brushed over on his cheek caressing it. Uhh, it had been better if that has been her soft palm instead! He so much yearns for her to embrace him in her arms. It was irritating in the past yet as they say ‘with growing gap and dying emotions’ after some years you crave for those feelings to be felt again. And now, he yearned to feel those moments again. In fact, she desired the same. She wanted to feel him close, have him kiss her like a maniac that he was as her lover playing stupid pranks and being her partner in all the naughty crimes she committed in the college. Two heart— yearning for the same feeling sat silent with the only thought that the other one of them would not want it! They sighed lightly. Time is really cruel, it makes a person see umpteenth situations at the same time, especially when they are already surrou
CHAPTER 21. As much as he needs me, I need him… Kiara’s point of view… My breaths were stuck in my throat. I wished to breathe and keep standing to the going on situation, yet I couldn’t. His words left me speechless. I froze in my spot and eventually the air around me began to get heavier and burn my skin with increasing chills. I was sure by now my skin would have gone crimson under the decreasing temperature. Any how as I moved my head to see him with great difficulty, my heart ached reading his features. He sat like that participant of the competition who lost the match few seconds right before reaching the finish line. “Wh-at!” my voice cracked at the unexpected disclosure. So much pain! So much hurt! So much guilt! I never thought Raven was living such a difficult life. Look at him, he was young and handsome. He has not even started to enjoy his adult life as an individual and he was already trapped by obstacles and so many problems. He became an unfortunate father of two k
CHAPTER 22. His strength… He placed his hands over mine which were gripping against his hard chest firmly. His skin was burning, it was hot. “Only if you had opened the door that day, shoved few slaps on my face and threatened me to do something to yourself, I should have changed my mind.” He mewled holding on to me tight. He was not wrong, providing that if I had tried— TRIED then we could have been together. I knew it right after the moment I met him for the first time, he was moody and a vague decision maker. He often made unprofessional decisions ruining his projects that could have been a big hit. “You know throughout the journey to the airport I wished to see you. Hug you. I know I was wrong but it won’t be wrong either to say that you didn’t made any efforts to save our relationship. If I was bent on ending us, drawing us apart then you too let me do it. You knew, I was attracted to her yet you kept mum just because you thought it will change me up. Why didn’t you change me li
CHAPTER 23. Billy’s back home… A week later, There was nervousness on Raven’s face. He bit his nails whilst sitting on the chair outside the ward impatiently. “Girard! What do you think, how will she react?” he anxiously asked his brother longingly gaping over in his direction. Girard smiled, the same kind of smile he gave him during their journey till here, to the hospital. “You are over thinking brother. There's no reason in you getting so nervous now. She knows everything right! She has been here the entire week with mom, why are you bothering yourself uselessly! “ Squeezing his shoulder Girard gave him a side hug. They actually have come to the hospital to see Billy. He was going to be discharged today. The doctors were shocked and considered it more like a miracle seeing his recovery after Kiara came to see him the next day of that night and that chaos. He was weak and hardly opened his eyes. However, as she kept coming and seeing him, he got a lot better and today, he was goi
CHAPTER 24. His mother… They reached his parents house. It was located in the main area of Seattle. And as for now they were sitting in the hall, relieved. Nobody ever saw Raven too much at peace before in these two years of Billy’s existence. For the first time in life, he felt so proud of himself for having made such a wonderful decision that was pulling everything together at its correct place. Just like a puzzle, all the parts were being placed in the proper place. They were now a complete family with a perfect couple, cute baby and their supporting parents and a big brother cum best friend who helped in every condition. Mrs. Carter placed the tray of cookies on the round small dark brown wooden table after handing the cups of coffee to everyone around. Her lips never forgot to maintain that happy smile indicating how joyous the moment was at the time. “I just checked on them. Billy is sleeping and Kiara is beside him near the bed massaging his wrists to soothe the pain of needl
CHAPTER 25. Scared… Kiara’s point of view… How can Shania be so diabolical cunning. She tried to kill her own children and killed one already! I am confused to know she wants Billy. Why but!? To kill him?! Cut him into pieces and then throw him somewhere in the trash?! “I don’t know baby why your mother tried to kill you but I promise you I will keep you safe always. I may not be your mother who brought you in this world but I will wean you like my own flesh.” His hands are so tiny and soft. Such a cute baby he is. It was fantastic. I could feel that I had a great responsibility. This sleeping bundle of joy on the bed gave me the feelings as though I only made him. “Billy!” my eyes were fixed on his skin when a feminine voice broke into the room that I looked up from him to the door. As soon as my eyes fell at there, I froze in my position. “Kiara!” As shocked as me Shania stood there stunned blinking her eyes blankly while I could only manage to gasp in amusement. What has she m
CHAPTER 26. Just Mine… The situation was under control now. Thanks to Girard and the two officers that they managed to take her out of the house soon, bravely. I can’t describe what has gone through me! She has changed into a mad woman. All the way to the hall she kept screaming, threatening Raven and abusing Billy for running away from her. Shania was dragged out while she extortionately shouted that she will take away Billy from this house and do something worst to him. “Hey Billy, do you want to play some games?” The poor kid stick close to me still quivering with the incident that just took place. I don’t know what else has he seen that made him run out of her arms like that. He literally crawled to save his life no matter whether he was going to fall down on the other side! “Come on we will watch Noddy, that’s your favourite, isn’t it!” He sat on the bed quite reluctantly next to me. His arms lingered in my thigh as I looked for the remote. As I switched the TV on, he smiled fo
CHAPTER 27. I want you to love me… (18+ content ahead. Read at your risk)Two months later… The morning was fresh and life, amazing! There was cool breeze rolling over while the warm body on the bed beside Kiara’s made her smile. She turned on her back looking at her husband. He looked like a kid sleeping peacefully with hairs ruffled. However, the marks on his skin made him look more beautiful. It reminded her about their hot make out they had the last night. It was fierce and kind of rougher than the earlier times. Luckily they were in their bungalow not in his parent’s or else her loud screams and ears numbing moans would have made the scene awkward and horrible. The good part was even Girard was out for some business work giving them perfect night of their life that was better, more enjoyed and ultimately one of the longest nights of their love making. “Rave! Get up we need to go and see Billy. He will bother your parents with his tantrums.” She lovingly ruffled his hair, he sm
