“You went to jail because of me,” Lucas stated in regret. He knew that it would take some time before Kiandra went back to her normal state.Even though she was talking more, he could still tell that her mind wasn’t fully there but at least she had started to recover and that was enough for him.“Hmm,” Kiandra agreed. “But at the same time, you aren’t responsible for their actions and decisions,” she stated. She didn’t have the energy to hate anyone mainly because her mind wasn’t allowing her to think too much about it.All she wanted to do was just to sleep as she was tired. It seems her body was finally breaking down from all the stress she had been through in the last five years starting from when she discovered that she was pregnant with Zendaya.She didn’t have the time to sit and think about it as she had to juggle school alongside a job and taking care of her child and it had been so until she met Lucas. Now that she didn’t have to worry about how she was going to take care of

"Did he touch you?" Liam asked and his eyes turned cold as the thought of the idiot touching Belle made him jealous."Liam," Belle was unable to answer with the way he kept on sucking her neck. She couldn't even think straight as all she could focus on was on Liam and the sensations he was making her body feel."Answer me," Liam demanded."Y-yes," Belle answered and Liam's expression grew even colder as she had just confirmed his suspicion."No worries, I'll make you forget about him and fill your mind with thoughts of me alone," he said and he kissed her once more.Belle kissed him back and she shuddered in anticipation of what was to come. The next thing she felt was Liam tugging her shirt and immediately, she sat up and raised her hands up so he could take it off.His hand went to her back and he unhooked her bra. She instinctively wrapped her hands around her chest to cover herself from Liam's eyes. "Do you want this as much as I want it?" He asked, wanting to be sure that she was

Kiandra opened her mouth to speak but she couldn't find the right words to say. She knew how Lucas felt about her but hearing him say it again made her speechless.Lucas moved closer to her and he pulled her in his arms. "I know you feel the same way about me. So please don't let your fears stop you from finally getting the happiness you deserve," he told her."We can't say what will happen tomorrow," Kiandra said persistently."So why not take that risk," Lucas argued, not wanting to lose to her."Because I'll kill you if you hurt me again and I don't want to go back to jail," Kiandra stated and he chuckled."You're more than free to do so," he said and tired of wasting time, he leaned in and captured her lips. Kiandra immediately wrapped his hands around his back and she gripped his shirt tightly.It had been five years since she got this close to him or any man. She wasn't unable to get close to any man as apart from her fear of getting pregnant again, she was unable to get Lucas o

When Kiandra came back into the room, Lucas had left and this made her sigh in relief as she would be able to dress in peace without having to deal with him.She saw the clothes he had picked up and it was a jogger and a big hoodie. She smiled as she had to admit that Lucas had a great fashion sense especially with all those looks he served even while in a suit.As soon as she got dressed, she walked out of his room and into hers to take care of her hair. She wasn't ready to put much effort into it and so, she just tied it into a messy bun after which she headed down to eat as she was starving.As soon as she got there, the helpers bowed to her and this made her feel a bit weird as she wasn't used to it but she knew Lucas was behind it and there was no changing his mind about it."Where's Lucas?" She asked the head helper."He is in the study, ma'am," the helper told her and she nodded. "Excuse me," she said and she headed straight to the study. When she entered to meet Lucas, she f

Lucas was beyond shocked and utterly confused as to how the woman he thought was dead was sitting in front of him.She however looked like the shell of her former self. She looked malnourished and he could see her bones sticking out. Her eyes had bags under them and her skin wasn’t the smooth skin he knew.If someone saw her former self and compared it to the woman who was sitting in front of him, they wouldn’t be able to recognize that they were the same person but he recognized her instantly as she was his family.“Do you know me?” Dolores asked as she stared at the man who was standing in front of her. Lucas immediately got closer to her and he got down on one knee. “Mom, don’t you remember your son?” he asked in a sad voice. Even though Kiandra had told him that she didn’t remember anything, he didn’t want to believe his mother had forgotten him. Before Belle, Kiandra and Zendaya came into his life, his mother was the most important woman to him.“I’m sorry, I don’t remember you
