Author's POVA bit of sprinkle here and and there made a little ocean and that was what Ellie was doing. Her plans started out slowly, almost as if she was naive and dumb, that was her plan all along because it would help her be able to carry out what she originally had in mind. It wasn't going to be easy given the fact that a lot of people thought that she was senseless but she was going to find a way to make it work.That made her begin her day with going to visit her father before the cock crowed. She needed no interrogation from the guards because she was the Luna in question. "Dad, I am here because you promised that I would be able to find a solution, so where is it?" Her father gestured to a seat but she refused. She was working with time so if it didn't clock in at the expected time she wasn't going to remain here waiting for an irresponsible person to carry out her assignment for her."Daddy, I came here before anyone was up. I need to leave before they can finally wake up.
Xander's POVThe moment I saw Ellie approaching, I felt disgust well up inside of me. It was almost as though she had washed herself in mud. The feeling was unexplainable. It wasn't as if I liked her in the first place but this was more of disgust. There was nothing wrong in her moving around since I was the one who allowed it in the first place but right now, I felt like she just had to leave no matter what my father said. She smiled when she crossed the threshold and I stared at her blankly, there was no way that I was going to take her seriously. She could try to do all she could but all that I could feel for her was resentment. "You look stressed, do you need anything?" She offered but I shook my head and that was me being polite. "I brought tea for you since I heard that you skipped breakfast." She said, I stared at her for a second and returned my focus to my books. "Are you mad at me? I know that we might have begun our relationship on a rocky begining but we can still mak

Ember's POVI jumped when I felt a hand touch me. It was no one but the infamous Trent. My head was resting against the wall and I was sure that my eyes bulged out of my sockets. "What's the matter? Are you okay?" I inquired, before casting another glance a the kids on the bed "Oh, it's nothing... I don't know... Why are you so scared?" "I'm not scared. I'm just a bit wary, that's all." I responded, searching to face for the animosity that laid in them a few days ago. It was missing and it made me wonder if he was messing with my emotions on purpose. There was absolutely no way that I wouldn't be able to figure out that there was a problem somewhere."You do know that there is absolutely no way that we can escape from the stress that comes with taking care of a child, so I brought some tea for you. Would you care for some?" I was still startled by how forgiving he was? Other men would have probably done something against me but he was only staring at me.I stared at him calmly. "
Ember's POVGetting out of a hard relationship didn't seem like the perfect way to work seeing that he was ready to be a responsible father. Trent was all shade of kind so I decided to stick with him, but the problem now was the lady who was ready to be a pest in our lives, unwilling to leave. It made me sick that I had to keep on waiting on her and all of that. If there was nothing else for me to do, I would have requested that I just left but my kids weren't still in the best shape.Trent had informed me that a physician would be coming in today which got me angry. Why the hell would he allow someone that we didn't know from Adam to come to treat them? But at the risk of sounding suspicious, I agreed. That led me to this point where I was. I had to tell another maid to get a message across to Xander but this time around with a better option. She went with blood bags. She didn't understand what was happening and I didn't send her any letter. I only told her to ask him to call me.
Xander's POV"Did you know that Ember's twins are finally healed? I can't imagine how happy she would be. If I were she I would have called for a celebration but I also understand if she wants to keep it under wraps." Grace spoke animatedly beside me not caring to see if I was interested or not."Hmm.""I was even told that she and Trent are about to renew their marital vows. I think that's so sweet. I would love to have someone who makes life beautiful for me that I would consider marrying twice." She continued and I groaned. I wasn't inclined to hear any good things about their union when Trent was living the life that I was supposed to have. "You will, he wasn't just the one for you," I replied so that the love for the idea of marriage didn't push her into the wrong hands again. If another man hurt my sister, I would kill him. it was a given and I was going to stand by that."You don't need a man to make you happy. You're happy already. When the right person comes along, I'll kno
Ember's POVI groaned softly, making a little turn around the bed, but I didn't feel anything. My hands went further to feel his chest, but the only thing I felt was the soft pillow close to me.That was weird because today was weekend that we had promised to spend together.As a result of this, I opened my eyes slowly, fluttering my brows twice to get a clearer vision of the room, only to realize that Xander was no longer beside me"Morning love”I heard the sweet and seductive voice of Xander, and it immediately made a smile curve up my lips. Raising the pillow closer to me, I rested it against my chin and continued to stare at Xander."You're up so early? You promised you'd stay with me today." I pouted.He chuckled slightly, "You look so cute when you do that” walking closer to me and held my chin. What I felt next was his soft lips on mine, greedily I held it and sucked on his lips while stylishly trying to lure him back to bed."I'm sorry baby, but I'd have to break that promise
