My mother is with me, I've got a stable job, a happy family, a baby on the way and a Mrs Warner.

"Baby" Charlotte murmured and stirred in her sleep, Alphonse who was sleeping peacefully beside her awoke by her movements."Don't let go" she mumbled quietly, and if Alphonse had not been silent and paying attention he would not have caught it.Slowly he raised himself up on one hand and propped his head on his palm while he stared at her.It was dawn already and small rays of sunlight strayed into the room from the blinds. It seemed Tina had come in and closed it properly so the could have a good sleep and not get blindsided by the sun when it was time to feel the hang over from last night.Last night.Alphonse thought about it and smiled, his memories of how they got home last night were scattered and if he was on good terms with Peter, the old man would have filled him in on all that had happened already.Alphonse's finger traced some strands of her red hair that had strayed to her face, her pushed the hair back and away from her face to get a better view.She slept so gently and

"Hey""Hey""What are you doing here?""I was not expecting to see you," they both said in unison."I think we both know the answer to our questions, " Alphonse said and Charlotte chuckled."Yeah," she said, smiling."I called after you left mine that morning but you never answered" Alphonse said and Charlotte nodded slowly."I was away in Greece, for business. With Dante" as she added the last part Alphonse nodded quickly, wishing he had not brought up that line of conversation."Right. No alcohol today?" He said as he pointed at her glass and both of them laughed, they both understood the inside joke."I do not want to end up in your bed again" Charlotte said and Alphonse laughed but something witty came to his mind at that exact moment."Yeah, imagine what Dante would say if he found out." He said and Charlotte almost choked on her wine."Shut up you fool" she said to him through gritted teeth."Say I tell him now, I walk up to him and say "sup man, did you know your girl was in my

Charlotte cleared her throat and arranged her hair, fixing her gown at the same time.“Dante” she called the name of her lover, wondering if she had seen them kissing.The tall bulky Dante looked between Alphonse and Charlotte.“Is this man harassing you?” Dante asked, pointing an accusing finger at Alphonse who only scrunched his brows in amusement and surprise."Uh, no. We were just having a friendly chat" she said and looked at Alphonse quickly and looking away. "Do you want a drink?" She asked Dante, forcing a smile in his direction."Yes my love, I'll join you" Dante said and Charlotte took that as her cue to leave the two men in the room alone.Alphonse felt a pang of hurt as Charlotte referred to him as a "friend"."Stay away from my girl Senator" Dante said as soon as the door closed."Your girl?" Alphonse raised a brow and stick his hands in his pockets."My girl, my woman" Dante repeated. "I see you around her, lusting for her attention, begging to be seen by her. I see all

Eight fifteen, the time read. Alphonse checked his wristwatch, she was fifteen minutes late, but that was typical of women so he sighed and came down from his car. She would be here any time now. He stood staring at the restaurant he and Charlotte used to frequent when she was with him, two years ago. One day he had decided to visit the local market for a little stroll and on his way home, he saw that the small restaurant was closing down. When he inquired, he was told the owner had lost his wife and was running bankrupt after clearing their mortgage since they had no children. Alphonse wasted no time in buying the place and offering the man times two of the money and clearing off the rest of his debts. He sighed and looked inside the restaurant he had renovated to his taste, on some days the food was free to the public and on the days it was not, he made sure every food item sold to people was very cheap so every one could afford it and the manger could pay the workers when he

“Tesoro (sweetheart), where are you off in such a hurry?” Dante walked into the room to meet Charlotte, arranging her clothes in her suitcase hurriedly. Her face was in a tight scowl as she threw in whatever clothes she could find. “The business conference I was going to attend, that’s what I’m leaving for” Charlotte said, not sparing Dante a glance. Dante's brows scrunched up in confusion. “You said it was the day after tomorrow and you planned on leaving tomorrow. Why the rush?” Dante asked her, seemingly knowing why she was sad and had to leave quickly. But since he was the perpetrator, he did not want to delve deep into the reason for her hurried departure. “Uh, I have someone to meet before the main conference. Dante, you’re asking too many questions, and it’s starting to get on my nerves”, Charlotte said in irritation. Dante kissed his teeth and went closer to her. “Honey, i just want to know you’re going to be safe and comfortable. I’m sorry if I vexed you”. Dante said

Charlotte walked slowly like robot to the balcony where he stood.She pushed past the light curtains that danced with the slightest breeze.Dante was still on the phone “text me when it is done. You know he is the senator so he has people in power to pull strings and find out who did this. Make sure you give enough money to whoever can clear this up. I don’t want my father or my girl hearing about this” he said and Charlotte gasped.He did it.Dante turned at that same moment and saw her standing not to far from him.As soon as he saw that she was close by, he bade the person on the other end a pretense happy goodbye and ended the call.But it was already too late for him because she had heard every single thing he said, although he was looking at her with a smile now. Charlotte knew it was a facade because she knew that he was talking to one of his men.Dante smiled fully and spread his arms slightly open for her to come into them."Mi amor, you miss me already? Are you not leaving

She could not go back into the house again, so she knew she had to hide and call for help. But the only people in the house were her, Dante and the security, and soon they would come looking for her to take her back to Dante. She was on the run and Alphonse was in the hospital, there was only one person who had the power to help her. "Hello, Charlotte. Where are you?We've not seen you in the ...." Carla was saying as soon she answered Charlotte's call “It’s Dante!!” She cried as she ran to her car “it’s him” she said hurriedly. Carla straightened in the chair where she had been sitting. “Char, calm down and talk to me, who did what?” Carla asked. “Dante, Dante Morcelli. The man who followed me from Italy and everyone thought he was my lover. He is not, he shot and tried to kill Alphonse because he was jealous, I heard him on the phone. He tried to kill Alphonse and now he’s after me too. I need help” Charlotte said hurriedly as she ran to her car and crouched behind it Carla w
