RISE OF THE DISCARDED SON-IN-LAW FASHIONABLY LATE
Evening had fast approached and everything was set for the ball. The hall was arranged and decorated, the hor d'oeuvres and wine flutes were also placed intricately on the tables for the guests' satisfaction. The lobby where the guests would arrive looked amazing and fit with the theme of the ball. So far, Alarick was pleased with how it was all organized.Alarick stood at the mirror after putting on his outfit. He smiled at his reflection. He looked amazing especially after he had trimmed his growing stubble. Now, he had more of a sexy bachelor look rather than a homeless man look in his opinion but apart from his face, he really had to thank Giovanni for the fit of the suit. That man did know how to do his job.He checked his watch. It was about ten minutes before the guests would start to arrive. He had to check up on Charlotte before then. Alarick took the box that sat on his bedside drawer and walked out of his bedroom. He got to Charlotte's door and knocked. Once again, the woma

Alarick let go of her hand and rolled his eyes as Clarice stepped forward and brought out a hand."Oh, so she is the date who you thought abandoned you. It doesn't seem like it."Charlotte giggled and took the woman's hand. Alarick took a glass of champagne from a waiter who was walking by and started to drink."I don't think there's anything wrong with us ladies wanting to look beautiful for our men." Charlotte said.Alarick choked at her words but quickly composed himself before anyone noticed it. Clarice winked at Charlotte. She then proceeded to look at her husband."I know all too well and sometimes they don't even notice." Clarice responded and though it was meant to be a joke, Alarick could detect the slight resentment in her tone.While Charlotte and Clarice shared a laugh, Alarick stepped forward and placed a hand on Charlotte's waist. His touch made her shiver for a second but she calmed her nerves and kept a straight face."I can see that both of you are getting along quit
RISE OF THE DISCARDED SON-IN-LAW HANDLING THE INTRUDER
"Again, thank you all so much for being able to attend. Enjoy the rest of the night."The crowd clapped as Alarick rounded up his speech and left the stage in a hurry. He had to cut his speech short because of what he saw. How he saw that man handle Charlotte. Normally it wouldn't be his problem but it pissed him off to no end to see another man touch her so roughly especially when it was in his own home. He didn’t bother analysing why it bothered him, what mattered now was putting the man in his place.As Alarick walked over to the man and Charlotte, the crowd who kept clapping for him followed his movement and soon enough everyone knew where he was headed to. Their focus turned to Charlotte and the man and they all kept quiet to watch what was going to happen next."Let me go." Charlotte said as she still tried to pry the man's fingers off of her arm. He was too drunk to notice that people were staring in their direction now and he was causing a scene. The man leaned in and whispe
RISE OF THE DISCARDED SON-IN-LAW SHE'S JEALOUS
"What is this?"Alarick stared at Cillian for some time at a loss for words at first but then he took a breath and spoke. Cillian sighed and dragged Alarick away from Charlotte so that they could talk in private."Alarick, why is Charlotte here?""I didn't want to alarm you by telling you that she was going to be here.""And you think catching me off guard was going to be better. What are you doing? This can't possibly end well.""I have a reason. I only brought her here so that I can keep an eye on her. I don't want her escaping in the cover of night and the noise of the event. Plus, maybe I could find out if anyone else is involved with her plan by the way she interacts with them. There are guards stationed at every corner of the room and I have also given them instructions not to let her out. They are the only ones who know her identity. I have everything under control."Cillian looked around seemingly frustrated with it all before turning back to Alarick."Are you sure of this pla
RISE OF THE DISCARDED SON-IN-LAW THE EVENT WAS SUCCESSFUL
Alarick's eyes widened as Charlotte leaned in to lock lips with him. With their heads tilted and eyes closed, Charlotte and Alarick's kissed deeply. He had been stiff at first, but after a few seconds of their lips together, he couldn’t resist or pull back. Time seemed to stop for both of them as they became immersed in the kiss. Alarick deepened the kiss, his arms snaking around her waist. Charlotte reciprocated his intention and leaned in further. Murmurs filled the parts of the room that witnessed the kiss and glares covered the faces of envious women but Alarick and Charlotte were oblivious to it all. They stayed in their embrace for a while before Alarick pulled back.Charlotte's eyes still stayed closed, her mind wondering why kissing her kidnapper felt right. Her hands formed fists slightly crumpling her gown as Alarick marveled at what they had just done. She opened her eyes and Alarick turned away. Charlotte faced the awed and discouraged women with Alarick still holding her
RISE OF THE DISCARDED SON-IN-LAW HER HIDDEN AGENDA
Alarick opened his eyes as he sat down on his bed. It was early in the morning, about 5:00 am but he was awake. He really couldn't sleep much anyway. He had his phone in one hand and a cup of coffee in the other as he scrolled through the latest news on both business and economics channels and since it was the weekend, Alarick was going to take as much time as he needed to rest. Alarick was taking a sip of his coffee when there was a knock. He glanced at his door. Wasn't it a bit early for someone to be asking to see him? Alarick dropped his phone on the bed and waited."Come in."The door opened to reveal one of Alarick's guards. The man slightly bowed to pay respect before he started to speak."Good morning sir.""Morning. Is there something you need to tell me because it's quite early?""Sorry sir but yes, it is important. It's about the prisoner. Well, the woman that's been locked in the room. She's been yelling non stop for the past thirty minutes, telling us to release her. We'
RISE OF THE DISCARDED SON-IN-LAW AT HER FATHER'S TOMBSTONE
Scarlett leaned back in her seat when the waiter approached them and gave Alarick a bottle of water and a glass just in case he needed it. Some people preferred to drink straight from the bottle and others preferred to drink from a glass."Have you made your choice from our menu now, sir? Our chefs are honoured that you graced us with your presence and would like an opportunity to show off their impressive culinary skills.” The waiter said after dropping the water instead of leaving.Alarick glanced at Scarlett."You invited me here, so go ahead and order for us." Alarick said to her and Scarlett smiled."All right. We'll have your ribeye steak glazed with bourbon, and any side dish you think is best. Impress me and you’ll get a really good tip after our dinner.” She said to the waiter.The waiter nodded and walked away to get their order as Alarick took a sip of water. "So, when did Farhad travel?""Three days after we came to visit you. I'm sure he didn't call because he was busy a
RISE OF THE DISCARDED SON-IN-LAW AN INVITATION
Alarick went back towards the house and once he stepped inside, he could hear Charlotte's voice ringing through the lobby. She was still shouting and it didn't seem like she was going to stop anytime soon.He shook his head and went up the stairs to her room. The guards were still finding it hard to put Charlotte into her room since her hands gripped the door frame as she started to scream profanities at the men. She had a very dirty mouth, and some words she said would make even sailors that were infamous for cursing, blush hard."You cannot do this to me you assholes! I am not a criminal! You have to let me go! Alarick! Tell your goons to release me this instant! I will sue you all for harassment the minute I’m out of here, you will all regret treating me like this, I promise you."On hearing his name, Alarick walked closer and stepped in front of Charlotte and she calmed down a little but her hands never left the door frame."I do not deserve to be treated this way. Tell your men
