His eyes are staring at the closed doors where his wife was taken hours ago.“She will be fine son, don’t worry” he heard Curtis, his father say. He looked at his father and forced a small smile but no words can out of his mouth. So he just nodded his head in yes and once again looked at the closed door, with a heavy heart.He is worried for his wife and his unborn baby who will enter this world in some time.He doesn’t know whether it is going to be a boy or a girl.

Author’s POVSeven years later...Sun rays fell into the silent room stirring Cyrus from his sleep. Without knowing what he is doing, his hand moved beside him on the bed, searching for someone but when he felt the coldness on the bed and absence of his wife, he eyes fluttered open.He looked around himself but she was not in the room. He didn’t hear sound of water running, which told him that she is not in the bathroom as well.'maybe she is in the kitchen' he thought and sat up on the bed. He was about to get down from the bed when the door of the room opened and a big smile appeared on his handsome face.“Happy birthday to you”“Happy birthday to you”He heard the song with a smile on his face as his eyes were focused on the three people who walked inside the room. Natalie was holding a cake in her hands.“Happy birthday dear Dad, happy birthday to you” the song was completed with the sound of clapping.“Happy birthday Dad” his little princess wished and placed a soft kiss
Natalie I am standing behind the closed door, wearing this beautiful ivory wedding gown. This gown is reaching the floor and is designed very beautifully by one of the well known fashion designer in the country. My erratically beating heart is reminding me that it’s time. The door opened and I was greeted with a big round of applause by everyone present in this beautifully decorated hall. This place looks like a heaven on earth. A lot of money has been spent on this, I can tell. Everyone was standing on their feet to welcome me. Not many people are invited today as both the families wanted this event to be simple. Only few close friends and relatives of both families are present. I came out of my thoughts when I heard the voice of my father. “Let’s go Nat” he said while reaching his hand out for me to take. I looked down to stare at his hand and without saying a single word I put my hand in his. He started walking me down the aisle. Isn’t it the most beautiful moment in ever
NatalieOne week ago“Natalie, What are you doing here in kitchen? Why didn’t you get ready for the party?” Ana asked with concern in her eyes. She is the head maid of the Miller familyI frowned at her words as I replied, “I am not attending that party Ana. I wasn’t instructed to get ready. About being in kitchen, Amanda told me to prepare her favourite pasta for her”“That is why I am here in…” I couldn’t complete my sentence when I heard my name being screamed out from living room and my heart dropped in the pit of my stomach.The amount of anger and venom I can hear in the voice of Edwin who shouted my name from outside, is the proof that I am in trouble.I gulped down the lump in my throat. Ana squeezed my shoulder with a look of pity in her eyes and this is not something new for me.After inhaling a deep breath, I came out of kitchen. As soon as I was in the living room I heard Edwin asking in anger, “Why the f**k are you coming out of kitchen? Didn’t I tell you to get ready bef
Natalie“Do you want to dance with me?” The infamous playboy Cyrus Knight asked me and my eyes widened in shock.I instantly looked to my right where Amanda was standing earlier. And as I had expected she was shooting daggers in my direction with those eyes of hers.I shifted my gaze back to the man standing in front of me. His eyes stared me up and down with his ocean blue eyes, making me a little anxious.He held his hand out for me and asked, “Shall we?” I forced a small smile and replied, “I don’t know how to dance, I am sorry. Please excuse me” I turned him down politely and again made a move to walk pass by him.But he came in front of me to block my way. I looked up at his face to find him staring down at me with a small smirk on his lips. “Now that is the worst excuse ever, don’t you think? It’s just one dance beautiful” he said with a playful smile as he once again held his hand out for me. The way his gaze is fixed on me is making me want to run away from him. He is screa
Author’s POVThe door of the room slammed open and Cyrus entered into his room in this hotel, which actually belongs to him.He threw the jacket of the three piece black suit he was wearing for his birthday party and undid the top three button of his black shirt.His jaw is clenched so tight, eyes are full of rage. He just left his party in the middle and returned to his room, because he is really pissed right now.And he knew if he stayed there, someone would have gotten burned in the fire of his irrepressible anger. He knows himself too well.He heard the knock on the door of his room and without even turning around he knew that it’s his secretary William, who is also his good friend.“I want you to find out everything about her. Every single thing” he said as soon as William entered into his room.“Calm down, Mr. Knight” William tried to calm his raging boss.“Oh, I am not calming down William. Not until I make her regret what she did. Now get to work, you only have twent
NatalieI am sitting on my bed in my room. My eyes are glancing in the direction of the wall clock again and again.It’s eleven in the morning and I still haven’t left my room since I have returned from that birthday party and it was the day before yesterday.Yes you heard me right. I didn’t go out of my room some the day before yesterday.I have locked myself in here since that night. I didn’t even go out to eat and just stayed here in my room.Even now I really don’t want to go out. Especially when I know very well what is going to happen when I step out of my room and go in front of Edwin.But I can’t avoid him for much longer. Eventually I will have to go out and face him. And I know that the more I will avoid him the more angry he is going to get.He must be raging in anger and by now he must have already thought about how he is going to punish me this time.I didn’t thought about all of the consequences I will have to go through when I was leaving that party, without tel
NatalieI came back down after getting ready to welcome the guests. It’s almost twelve in the afternoon which means Cyrus would be here anytime.I wore a black dress which is stopping a little below my knees. It’s not at all revealing like the dress I was wearing yesterday. I didn’t tie my hairs up and let them open. I put on a light make up.No, I didn’t do all of this because I want to look good. It’s just that Edwin doesn’t like it when I meet with his business colleagues or clients, in my casual look.He always tells me to wear make up and dress nicely whenever someone comes here at his house or we go out to meet someone.I sighed in frustration. I really don’t want to be here. I even contemplated staying in my room and not coming down. But as soon as that thought came into my mind, I pushed it away.I don’t want to make Edwin even more angry than he already is. Because I know the more angry he gets the more bad it’s for me.‘Cyrus won’t be able to do anything to you Nat
