Conan’s P.O.VFor a second, it felt as if I heard wrong as I tried to wrap my head around Amanda’s words. I stared down at her while she stared back at me in return with pleading eyes but still, I was confused because what in the world did I just hear her say?“The heir?” I repeated while she nodded in affirmation while running her palm together. Before I knew it, tears welled in her eyes as she sniffled in her tears. “I am sorry for saying it like that but I felt that if I didn't say it now, then I would never get the chance to ask you anymore” “The moon goddess must be so in love with me and that is why she allowed Jojo to receive a phone call. Please I want you to promise me that you would never tell your uncle about this request that I ask of you” She muttered under her breath. My eyebrows puckered because no matter the words she uttered, I was still confused and I was totally at a loss for words to say. The request was something that took me aback totally and never in my wilde
Conan's P.O.VMy eyes widened as a scoff escaped my lips. Her words resounded in my ear and everything just sounded like a lie.I banged my fist on the table in anger. "What do you mean by my brother is the father of Kayla's child? What manner of insolence is this?" I yelled at her while she shuddered a breath before shaking her head slowly."Conan, you know that I would never accuse someone of something like that if I am not sure of what I am saying! You know that is unlike me and I swear that I am telling the truth. I swear on my child that your brother is the father of Kayla's child" Amanda said and the look she had on her face depicted that she was sure of what she was saying.Still, I didn't want to believe her words. It sounded absurd and weird, knowing the relationship between Connor and Kayla. Connor was always at the receiving end of Kayla's insult and he would always make mention how he detested Kayla as if his life depended on it.Even if he didn't detest Kayla, he would ne
Liana's POVI wasn't only bored but I was so tired from doing nothing as I stared at the laptop while drumming my fingers on it. Just when I was about to lay my head, Kayla came in munching on chips while chewing them in a way that kind of triggered all of my senses.As much as I wanted to yell at her for her to stop making that horrible sound, I let it slide because engaging in banter with her meant that I was looking for trouble and the last thing I wanted was for anyone to even stress me.I plugged in my AirPods even though I wasn't playing any sort of music but I knew that she was trying to annoy me intentionally and the only way to send her away was by pretending to listen to music."Can't believe that she dares to ignore me" I heard her mumble to herself as she trailed in another direction while I followed her with my eyes."That sly witch," I thought inwardly.Kayla sauntered out of the kitchen, still munching on her chips with that same annoying sound that emanated from her. W
Liana's P.O.V"The father of Kayla's child is right here?" I mumbled to myself, swiveling my gaze around the whole room to check if we had a stranger here because the last time that I had checked, Conan was the father of her child so what the hell was he on about?I could see the confusion on Kayla's face as she approached Conan while squeezing the bag of chips in her hands. "Are you sure that you aren't drunk? You are the father of the child and you are standing right in front of me"Conan scoffed, bobbing his head slowly. "Really? I have never engaged in any type of sexual thing with you so how am I the father of your child? "Kayla rolled her eyes as she folded her arms. "Well, you and I got intimate that night at the party, have you forgotten or do you want me to give you the details?" She said unfazed by the fact that trouble was brewing at a corner."I don't need to hear the details of that cooked-up lie. However, Kayla, do you care to tell the whole world about the relationship
Liana’s POVI blinked my eyes a couple of times because it felt like something electrifying was rushing through my cheeks. I held my cheeks tightly, still trying to wrap my head around what in the world just happened right now. The gasp in the room echoed through the air and slowly, it began to dawn on me that I had been hit fiercely on the cheek, Kayla had slapped me!My eyes widened, turning to look at the woman who had just hit me. “Did you just slap me?” My voice quavered as I stared at her in nothing but utter disbelief. Conan roared. “Kayla, what the hell did you just do” I heard his footsteps approaching me and Conan had hardly gotten to where I was when Kayla gripped me by the neck with her eyes blazing with fire and an evil smirk that crept at the corner of my lips.“I have been nothing but nice towards you but all you have ever done was repay my niceness with evil because I didn't want any harm to come to you, I told you to divorce Conan but because you didn't want to divo
Conan’s POVI stopped on my track, staring intently at Kayla who held the knife to her stomach with beads of sweat formed on her forehead. Her fingers trembled as she clutched on tightly to the knife and a scoff escaped my lips as I slipped my hands down my pocket. “Then what are you waiting for? Stab yourself or do you want me to make it easier by stabbing you myself” I said coldly and I heard someone that I presumed to be Liana gasp. Tears welled up in Kayla’s eyes. “You are a psychopath and even though you try so much to hide it, it doesn’t change the fact that you are a blood-thirsty murderer who doesn’t care about anyone other than yourself” She muttered under her breath and in a way that no third party would hear our conversation. I chuckled dryly. “I am waiting, you have two minutes to stab yourself. If you don’t stab yourself in the space of two minutes then I would do it myself. You damn well know that I don’t care for you or anything concerning you” Connor ran towards Ka
Liana's P.O.VI paced back and forth in Kayla's bedroom while the family doctor that had been called administered to her. I didn't know why but Connor's mom had specifically called for the doctor who was the one that shared the good news about Kayla's pregnancy.Conan's mother claimed that she was more comfortable with the doctor since she goes to him for her monthly checkups and that was why she called for him instead of the family doctor. Different thoughts bugged my mind as I gnawed on my fingers."Why did Connor mention that I help people that always shatter me in return? Does he know that I have been the one helping Bruce Lawrence all along and how does he even know? Could it be Kayla who told him" I thought to myself, glancing at Kayla who lay peacefully on the bed while Connor rubbed her on the hand slowly?If Kayla were to be awake, I was sure that she would have bit his hands off for daring to touch her.I took in a deep breath in a bid to calm my nerves and the rate at whic
Conan As soon as I got into the VIP section, my beta Arthur quickly jumped to his feet, lowering his head in reverence for me while I gestured for him to sit. My eyes scrutinized his face and I could see the scar right at the corner of his eyes. I leaned in the chair, downing a glass of whiskey. “Seems that the scar would never leave, you should take that as your signature sign”Arthur had a wavering smile that formed on his face. “It doesn't matter, any scar that is given to me by my beloved Alpha would forever be loved and cherished by me,” He said, reaching his hands for a glass of wine. I could feel his eyes fixed on the dried blood that was on my fist, the blood of that filthy jerk and betrayal, Connor.“Do you like what you see?” I grinned as he checked as well.Arthur nodded curtly. “No Alpha Conan, it is just weird seeing blood around you. Is there anyone that you want me to take out for you, I would gladly do it. Now isn't the time for people to know you for who you are” H
