When Dreams Are Made She Loved Him
Chapter 86His study was a few doors from their bedroom, so Nancy literally had to limp her way up the stairs, holding the walls for support. Maybe she should have freshened up first before meeting Derek, but that would be too much luxury after waiting this long for this moment. She was at least grateful that there were no other servants in the hall as she made her down the hall. Soon, she was standing outside his study, taking a deep breath to calm her nerves and anticipating what she hoped to be a good welcome.6When she opened the door, Derek was sitting at his table, spinning a half filled wine glass he held in his hand and glaring at the cup at the same time like it was someone who had annoyed him. His face was expressionless, his eyes empty and his mood sour, but regardless, he still looked like she remembered him. She had always known he was the most handsome man she had seen in her life, but seeing him again after such a long time made her stomach flutter. Daniel was sitting
When Dreams Are Made Reality Was Different
Chapter 87At The Plains, the house of Barry Gates was as expected, huge and classic, the interior exquisite. It did not feel like it was her first time here though, because Nancy felt a little familiar with the environment, but she knew why. She had spent too much time these past months, living in delusions, and a better part of that was Derek Lincoln's house, which was twice as exquisite as this. She had probably gotten accustomed to seeing buildings like this, so it did not bother her as they rode in.They were informed that the Lord and Lady of the house were out but would be back shortly, so Nancy and Derek were shown to the parlor, where they waited. The maids offered to show Nancy to her room though, obviously under the impression that she was Lydia, but Nancy declined the offer and Daniel told the servants that they would wait for Barry Gates and his wife. Daniel waited with her, not knowing if she would need him to get her anything else. She had said nothing to him on the wa
When Dreams Are Made All She Swore To Is False
Chapter 88Two weeks was enough time for her to rest, Daniel thought as he strolled into his brother's estate. He had sent Lucille down to see to her medical needs, and so far, the results were good. All she needed was a good rest and good meals and proper care of course, in a warm house and trouble free environment while her sore body received the care it needed. Nancy was a stubborn woman, stubborn as her husband, who had locked himself inside to brood and drink himself to stupor rather than try to mend things out or see the reality.The new man who had returned with Derek, Roberts, was the one Daniel met in the parlor the minute he entered, he nodded to the man's greetings and asked to see his brother. But like every other person, Roberts was scared to go to Derek, who had made it clear that he was in no mood for company. So seeing the man's uneasiness, he dismissed him and went up towards the bedroom instead. Daniel noted that the man, Roberts, was not inexperienced in the matter
When Dreams Are Made The Woman
Chapter 89Nancy longed for the day it would all be over and she could hold her baby in her arms. She wanted a girl child, a little daughter like she had never been, with jet black hair like her own, stubborn as ever and sea green eyes like her father. No, she didn't want that. She wanted nothing in this child to remind her of Derek. Besides, his eye color often changed depending on his mood, which was even as well because he could pass as the devil himself with his undefined moods. Sometimes it was deep blue, other times it was a darker shade of green, but hell! Those were some of the things she loved about him. She sighed, tired of the direction her thoughts were going. Life had been cruel enough, and she needed no more of its disappointments. With her increasing inactivity, the days grew shorter, but they still did not pass quickly enough for Nancy, her stomach had grown increasingly large these days and it was becoming more difficult for her to move about. She was grateful though
When Dreams Are Made Another Thread To Tie A Loose End
Chapter 90Roberts did not stop sobbing, in fact, he was now sitting on the floor opposite the portrait and he was weeping bitterly now. Daniel and Derek watched on, surprised at the situation. This was a full man, wailing like a child in front of two grown men without a care in the world for his pride.Derek's patience was running thin by the minute, he glared at the man in front of him before returning his icy gaze to his brother, who was also frowning. Derek moved to where Roberts sat am shoved him up with his hands around the collar of his shirt,"Will you tell us what is making you sob like a baby or should I force the words out of your mouth?" He growled angrily. It took a while for his breathing to return to normal, but even then, he had to struggle to breath because Derek's grip on his collar was beginning to restrict his airflow. When Daniel noticed that, he walked up to them and tried to free Roberts from Derek's tight grip. "You will kill the man." He told his brother in
When Dreams Are Made Labor
Chapter 91Long after they left, Nancy was still standing outside, staring at the empty space where the cart had stood just a few minutes ago. She felt like a heavyweight had been lifted off her shoulders, or a part of this at least. It was surprising just how much a little conversation could change things. And to think that Harvey was nothing like Derek, contrary to what they had thought. If she had not spoken up, Rosey would have gone on in silence, living in the assumption that Harvey didn't care for her or their children. She smiled again, recalling the proud smile that had registered on Harvey's face. Before they left, he had thanked her immensely and promised to do the right thing, which was to buy Rosey's freedom and properly wed her. What more could one ask for in life? She realized then that contrary to her own thoughts a little over a year ago, having Derek reciprocate her feelings and accepting their child was one of her biggest dreams now. But she also knew that that was
When Dreams Are Made This Was It
Chapter 92Across the haze of bright sunlight filtering through the trees, Derek rode Night Walker like a wild beast through the path leading to his house. He was holding Nancy with one hand to steady her. He was holding her no, he was carrying her with one hand because she was sitting on his lap instead, he had taken the liberty to keep her that way to reduce the pains from his wild ride. She wanted to believe that this was a dream, that she was not about to experience one of the worst pains in her life, and yet here she was, taking a horse back ride towards the house of the same man who would give anything to have his hand around her neck. But the blinding pain wouldn't even let her think, this was a different kind of pain, a dull, nagging ache. Why didn't he just take her back to The Plains? Why did Daniel go ahead of them? Derek wanted her to suffer. He would haunt her dreams forever just to make her suffer. Dear God, the pain was real! She screamed, a sound she did not recognize
When Dreams Are Made A Precious Gift
Chapter 93Derek stood in the open doorway to his room, feeling more helpless than he ever felt in his life. He had heard all that Nancy had said, and her fears had cut into him like a steel blade. Still, he could not blame her for thinking him so cruel. When had he ever shown her differently?Nancy's anguished cry shook him to his very soul. To think he had wanted to get as far away from her as he possibly could, to go away and never see her again. He had only gotten as far as before he was ready to turn back. He assumed Brenna would already be with her own people, and he came home simply to tell his father he was going to bring her back, that he had finally concluded that he could not live without her, regardless of how she felt about him.“Again, try, you are almost there!” Lauren said this time and squeezed Nancy’s hand. She nodded and took quick deep breaths, he saw her shut her eyes and heard the gut wrenching cry of agony again. This one was long and hard, each cry tearing thro
