Aries pretended not to notice the papers. "Evening, my darling. You look especially dashing tonight." She took an impatient breath, crossing the distance between them. "Please sign the papers for the divorce." He shrugged, crossing his arms over his chest. He looked at her, holding her stare. "I'm not divorcing you Leilani." He said without the slightest hint of humour.An annoyed look crossed her divine features. "We've talked about this already, Aries. Please don't make this hard for me." "No, you talked about this but didn't ask for my opinion, Leilani...." "Which is?" She cut in with holding her anger His eyes roamed her face, her beautiful blonde hair splayed over her shoulders, her blue eyes sparkling with annoyance and the defiant, stubborn tilt of her chin "I love you Leilani." His fingers caressed her cheek and she closed her eyes to gain her composure."Love isn't enough, Aries..... I married and fell in love with a man I do not know, that I blame myself, but could you
"What should we name them?" Leilani asked, rocking one of their babies in their arms.Aries shrugged, also admiring the little creature in his own arms. "I'll call this one Aramis. Ari, for short, it sounds like my name." Leilani's eye sparkled. "That's a brilliant name." She turned her attention to the bundle of joy in her arms. "I think I'll name him Adelio, Lio for short. It sounds a bit like my name." They shared a comforting moment in each other's presence, enjoying the silence.News travels fast, too fast. The godfather showed up at the hospital not too long ago, thrilled to see his new grandsons, followed by a swarm of family friends and relatives.He hated it.Heck, his hand has been on the gun in his pocket since the first visitor he hadn't recognized showed up to see his son.Who knew his fatherly instincts were so predatory, he felt like a mother hen guarding her chicks. A nosey woman reached out to touch Adelio and Aries reached for his gun, only to feel the cold grasp
Leilani was pissed Martha currently held one twin in her arms as they arrived at their private mansion he had gotten earlier that week.He was tired of living under the godfathers roof, it finally felt good buy a property worth 13million dollars and call it home.Leilani seemed pleased with the property as well, as she had no protests about it, not that Aries was surprised. He had hired her favourite interior designer to decorate the house.The Martha felt the silent war in the car. Adelio remained nestled in Leilani's arms, deep asleep as they got out of the car and walked into the mansion.The long trail of bodyguards he had hired recently were doing their work, standing on the stairs leading to the front door. Some patrolled round the house holding dogs in chains.As soon as they were in the comfort of privacy, Leilani snapped, "Your friends with Lucas?" Aries crushed under his breath as his P. A approached him and helped him out of his suit jacket. "When did this shit start?" H
"Your getting married? All of you just freaking kill me now!" Georgina shrieked, smoking a cigar. They were in the VIP of their favorite lounge, but none of them were in the mood to party."I cannot marry a cripple." Samantha spat in anger, holding the glass in her hand but not drinking at all.She was furious, and everyone knew why. "I mean, why would my parents agree to something so ridiculous? What would people say? That I, a supermodel and influencer, am marrying a lame man!" Georgina shrugged "Well look on the bright side his a fucking rich multimillionaire so, I mean you don't have to fuck him to love him." Samantha fumed. "You think money is everything? I'm not broke, you know." "Hmmm but I heard you will soon be if you refuse to marry Lucas, you will be stripped of your position as heiress and won't earn a dim of your inheritance. A most tragic love story." Georgina said, sipping her wine.Samantha clenched her fist. "I won't marry a cripple. I rather die. My parents can g
Splash!The water dripped from his face, soaking his white shirt. His step sister laughed venomously. Admiring the cup of water she just threw at him. Her eyes raking him up and down, she licked her bright red lips."Stripe for me," she said in a coy voice, as he looked at her with a horrified expression on his face. He undid his buttons. She cocked her head to the side."I want you to do it on your knees," she sneered, walking around the kitchen cabinet. She grabbed herself a vodka, pouring it into a glass. Aries couldn't hide the disgust he felt, but he kept an expressionless face as he got on his knees. She watched him sipping from her glass slowly.Viana was losing her patience. Tossing her glass in the sink, she walked up to him and placed her leg on his shoulder. Her pink thong, disgustingly exposed in her thin nightgown, her nipples were very visible. He closed his eyes as she reached out to touch him. It irritated Viana. With anger, she used her feet to stomp on his face re
"NO!" the cold, heartless words still echoed in his head. As he held the list of chores for the day in his hand. He held back tears — painful, resentful, angry tears. Taking a deep breath, he closed his eyes, deep in thought."What were you expecting, that he would care?. That he would be interested in your life in your education?" the voice in his head laughed at him. "It would be better for him if you didn't exist," the voice continued to mock him.He shook his head, putting on his headphones; he began cleaning. He swept, mopped, dusted and scrubbed the floors, cabinets and carpets. He did the laundry, avoiding any of Viana's under wears, then he did the dishes. On finishing his chores, he quickly showered, opening his wardrobe. He had only three white shirts and two pairs of jeans.Aries put on a shirt and jeans. Picking up his bag, he headed out for work. He walked briskly on the streets of the rich kids as it drizzled. He walked even faster. A sports car came towards him wi
The coin flipped in the air. Everything seemed to go in slow motion. Aries closed his eyes, lost in thought. Was he scared? Yes, he was frightened as hell. Shaking in his boots?.Running screaming for help seemed like an option, but his life wasn't worth living. If he died right now, would he see his mom again? Would she be in that place people called heaven? He stopped breathing when he heard her cork her gun. "One.... Two... Three.." she counted. His heart beat wildly in his chest. Like, for fuck sakes, who was he kidding? He wanted to so desperately live. Even though he didn't deserve to, he just couldn't die yet. It wouldn't be fair. He broke into a cold sweat, jerking as a loud shot fired through the air. "Heads" the blonde girl said, a bit disappointed, a mummer of boos echoed among her gang of girls. Sirens wailed in the distance and the girl cursed under her breath. "The name's Army, A-R-M-Y." she introduced herself, a creepy grin on her face as a whiff of weed came off
He closed his eyes, leaning in to kiss her.She placed a finger on his lips and chuckled, " Well, aren't we naughty?" she cocked her head to the side, chuckling softly. Which he found too cute. He looked away, embarrassed. He just attempted to kiss a stranger. What on earth was wrong with him this evening? She wanted him to live. His heart fluttered at the thought that there was someone out there who wanted him to live. What should he say? He tried to think? After his mother died, he entered a stage of depression in which he lost all his confidence. The lady seemed to notice a change in his demeanor. "I'll take my leave now, have a goodnight," she greeted politely, walking towards the doors. He sat in silence, thinking of how to speak. He had an internal battle with himself. Taking a deep breath, he yelled at the top of his lungs. "Excuse me, what is your name?" his heart raced in his chest, slamming against his rib cage as he ran after her. She waved him goodbye, a wide grin on
