THE STOLEN BRIDE (BAD BOYS SERIES) 65: WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT, YOU WILL MARRY HIM
CHAPTER 65 “Mommy!” “Mommy!” “Mommmyyyy!” “Aunt Shia, do you think my mommy is ok? She is sleeping a lot! Should we go to hospital?” There was a distinct laugh far away just like those voices in Eve’s head. She was still half awake that those voices seemed to be somewhere underwaters. “You’re such a good boy, Theo. But you shouldn’t worry to that b- I mean, to you mommy. She’ll wake up soon. Maybe she’s just tired after meeting your daddy.” “My daddy? You mean my real daddy?” “Hmm! Yes. Your real daddy.” “Did you already meet my daddy, Aunt Shia? What kind of daddy is he?” “Well… I don’t know if he’s a good daddy. But he’s handsome as fu- I mean, he’s handsome just as you are. Just that I heard he’s such a scary man and he’s super wealthy too.” “But my mommy said my dad is the most loving and caring man she ever met. You must be lying, Aunt Shia!” “She said that?” “Hmm. No. But I heard mommy talking of it whe
THE STOLEN BRIDE (BAD BOYS SERIES) 66: I'M NOT GOING TO MARRY LUCAS
Besides Piacere, Eve never entered another bar in her life. During her stay in Croatia, though she frequently drinks, she mostly drinks with Edward in their home when Theo sleeps. However, now, she met up with Shia in a bar where they could talk by themselves. “You mean, it is proven he’s not guilty?” Shia nodded at her question and sipped a little from the cocktail they were drinking. And it only made Eve’s shoulders fell down. “Yes girl. Since Lucas was detained, he didn’t stop fighting for his case until three years later, he proved that he was innocent. I even grilled Simon for this and I learned that it was just a set-up. Y’know, men stuffs. Maybe his enemies or his family’s enemies wanted to take revenge on him so they framed him of that girl’s murder.” Eve heaved a deep sigh as she swallowed. Yet, even swallowing was hard. Shia looked at her with curiosity when she gestured the waiter to come. “Hard drink please,” she told him that made Shia want to
THE STOLEN BRIDE (BAD BOYS SERIES) 67: HE'S KISSING ANOTEHR WOMAN
After convincing Peter for like decades, Eve was finally standing at the doorway of Piacere. And as she stood before the familiar metal door, she cannot help but have a hard time breathing. “Aren’t you going in, ma’am?” asked the huge guard who seemed to recognize her immediately with the way his eyes changed. Eve bit her lip and shook her head. “No. I’m going in,” she said and pushed the door open. Indeed, nothing had changed in Piacere. The dancing crowd of people are still there, wild and free just as she was years ago. The sweet yet bitter scent of liquor still floats in the air but something seems amiss. The scent of cigarette. Back then, she remembered it so clearly since she was always been suffocated by it. Yet, why does it seem like no one was using cigar now? Was it banned? She first went to the counter where she recognized the person in there. Even the bartender was still the same. He still had this gentle smile though when he mixed the drinks,
THE STOLEN BRIDE (BAD BOYS SERIES) 68: PUNISH WITH KISSES
CHAPTER 68 “Let me go! Lucas! Stop!” Eve flinched from his grip, punching his back with all the strength left in her. But she knew, it was nothing compared to his. She thought that he would bring her out of Piacere but she was wrong. They entered an elevator that led them up the third floor, where she remembered he brought her when she was drugged back then. They passed by several rooms, until he stopped in the one at the end and walked in. She waited for him to bring her down which he did. Yet, Eve was too drunk to stay on her own feet without falling. She was about to fall when Lucas grabbed her arm, preventing her from diving at his feet. “Now, hit me.” His tone was cold and it was not hard to recognize the anger in his tone. When she lifted her eyes up at him, she saw how dark his eyes were. Those beautiful eyes were only that dark when he’s either horny or angry. And she bet it’s the latter. Eve clench her fist and though she didn’t want t
THE STOLEN BRIDE (BAD BOYS SERIES) 69: SHE LEFT AGAIN
Lucas drove Eve to her home but it wasn’t the first time. because the first time was when she first met him when she was back in the city. That time she realized who he actually was. As the midnight drew deeper, so thus the silence between the two. Eve remembered that before, even the silence between them was comfortable. Yet now, it was filled with an unknown tension that it any second might break. “You never said who you really are. That you’re an Heirta,” Eve commented in a soft voice, making Lucas glance at her. Yet, there was a grin curling up in his lips as he replied, “why? If I told you that I am, won’t you ever leave me back then?” Eve saw how he clenched his jaw and how he tightened his grip on the steering wheel as he uttered those words. Even his eyes were obviously blaming her. but what made her unable to keep staring at him was how his eyes reflected pain. Was he that hurt with what she did in the past? Did he really love her that much?
THE STOLEN BRIDE (BAD BOYS SERIES) 70: IT'S YOUR DAD'S
“Mom-my! You’re late! Theo is mad at you…” Although her son said those words at her, he still, however, run into her arms as she opened in for him. And tightly, she embraced him. “I’m sorry, Theo. Mommy won’t do it next time alright?” she consoled him in a soft voice, caressing his hair. Theo didn’t answer anymore although his sobs were starting to calm down. Just like what he always did before, he burrowed his face on her; still sniffing lightly from crying. “He’s been waiting for you.” Eve looked up and saw her dad watching them. The look in his eyes were unreadably odd. Standing up as she carried Theo, she walked towards her father. “Did you… accompanied him?” her voice hesitated though she still asked somehow. Her father didn’t answer but the answer was already obvious. Feeling her heart warming, she walked past him as she muttered the words, “thank you.” However, what she didn’t expect was her father replying to her words. “He’
THE STOLEN BRIDE (BAD BOYS SERIES) 71: EVELYN
“Theo. Where do you want to study?” At her question, Theo went and sat beside her, looking at the screen of her laptop. Those were lists of schools where he could study kindergarten. Even before Theo could understand things, Eve had always let him choose things in his life. And just like today, she was letting him pick at what school he’ll study. Although he’s just still five, Theo could already read and understand a lot of words. Though he knew far more than what Eve was aware of. Lifting his eyes at her mother, he pointed at the screen. And Eve read it. “Davidson Academy?” “You just said what?!” Shia butted in from behind, and when Eve turned to her, she saw her holding a tray of foods. She probably got it from their kitchen. “Davidson Academy?” eve repeated, wondering why Shia looked so surprised. “You mean Theo will study there?” Eve nodded and raised a brow. “Yes. Is something wrong with this school?” Shia considere
THE STOLEN BRIDE (BAD BOYS SERIES) 72: I AM MRS. HEIRTA
“I never expected to meet you here.” Eve took a sip of the ice tea Faye ordered for here and eyed her observingly. Unlike before, Faye looked rather humble which was the opposite of what she was years ago. When Eve and her was still in the same class, she was always arrogant and mean. Especially towards her. Still, the competitiveness in her eyes was still there. Faye was never a bad girl to begin with. She was kind to others. Perhaps, its her desire to be better than Eve in ballet that made her become mean towards her. “Yeah, me too.” Faye replied shortly, somewhat embarrassed. “If you don’t mind, can I ask you something?” Faye met Eve’s eyes intently and a smile curled in her lips. “You wanted to ask what happened to me after you give up the opportunity to be an international ballet dancer to me?” Eve paused. “I didn’t give it up to you-” Faye laughed softly but there was no hint of anger in her tone. “I know you purposely jumped in the wrong
