Love's Way

Chapter One: The Beginning of Alesther's Troubles

"Mum, I'm home!" I exclaimed, dropping my bag on the floor as I rushed into the house, searching for my mother. "Mum! Mum! Where are you?" I called out, my voice filled with concern.

Suddenly, a loud crash echoed from her room, like the shattering of glass. My heart skipped a beat.

I ran upstairs, my heart racing, and my mind consumed with worst case scenarios.

I burst into her room, and my world came crashing down. Mum lay motionless on the floor, surrounded by shards of broken glass. I sa5 a piece of the bottle,I quickly recognized it as the one containing the chemical meant for killing rodents. A wave of horror washed over me.

"No! No! No! No! No!" I screamed, tears running down my face.

I dropped to my knees beside her. "Mum, get up! Please, wake up!" I begged, shaking her lifeless body.

I then checked her pulse, but there was nothing. She wasn't breathing. I felt like I was drowning in a sea of despair.

"Nooooo!" I wailed, clutching her body to mine. "Mum, please don't leave me! Not like Daddy did three years ago! Please mom, wake up!"

In a desperate, grief-stricken moment, I spotted a sharp piece of glass on the floor. Without thinking, I picked it up and sliced my vein, feeling the warm blood gush out. "If mom leaves, I too", I thought deep within.

Just as I felt myself fading away, I heard a voice behind me.

"Alesther, no!" David exclaimed, rushing towards me, catching my already failing body just before I could reach the ground.

I looked up, my vision blurring, and saw David's face filled with worry,and just Then, everything went black.

David's POV

As I walked up the path to Alesther's house, I couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions. I had been away for three months, working on a research project in Shanghai, and I had missed her terribly. I had always had feelings for her, but I had never mustered the courage to tell her.

As I approached the house, I saw the front door wide open, was there a robber here, I wondered within. With great concern, I ran into the house,just then, I heard a faint cry. My heart skipped a beat.

I rushed towards the sound. I burst through the front door and ran upstairs, my mind racing with worst-case scenarios.

I reached Alesther's mom's room just in time to see Alesther slumping to the ground, her wrist sliced open. I lunged forward, catching her in mid-air before she hit the ground.

"Alesther, no!" I exclaimed, holding her tightly as I applied pressure to her wound. She was limp in my arms, her eyes closed.

I quickly scanned the room, taking in the scene. Alesther's mom lay motionless on the floor, a broken glass bottle nearby. I felt a wave of anger and sadness wash over me.

Without hesitation, I scooped Alesther up in my arms and rushed downstairs, careful not to jostle her. I grabbed my phone and dialed 911 as I rushed out of the house.

As I waited for the ambulance to arrive, I held Alesther close, trying to comfort and revive her. She was still unconscious, but I could feel her heartbeat, and that gave me hope.

The ambulance arrived quickly, and the paramedics rushed over to take Alesther from me, also taking her mom along. I rode with her to the hospital, holding her hand and talking to her, even though she couldn't respond.

As we arrived at the hospital, I felt a sense of relief wash over me. Alesther was going to be okay. She had to be.

I sat in the waiting room, my mind racing with thoughts and emotions. I had always loved Alesther, but now, I felt a deeper connection to her. I was determined to be there for her, to support her through this difficult time.

As I waited for news from the doctor, I couldn't help but think about the future. I knew that Alesther would need time to grieve, to heal. But I was willing to wait, to be patient. I would do anything to make her happy, to help her through this difficult time.

As I sat in the reception room,still in shock from the incident, I couldn't help but think about how fate had brought me to thi

I lay paralyzed on stiff white sheets, a prisoner in my own skin, listening to the rain lash against the window like nails on a coffin. My father, Elmore Franco, didn't even look at my face as he checked his clipboard. He just listened to the steady, monotonous beep of the heart monitor-the only thing proving I was still alive. Without a hint of remorse, he pulled a pen from his pocket and signed the Do Not Resuscitate order. My stepmother, Ophelia, stepped out from behind him, wearing my favorite pearl necklace and smelling of cloying perfume. She leaned close to my ear to whisper the truth that turned my blood to ice. "It was the tea, darling. Just like your mother. A slow, tasteless poison." She chuckled as she revealed that my fiancé, Bryce, had a two-year-old son with my sister, Daniela. My inheritance had been funding their secret life for years, and now that the money was secure, I was an inconvenience they were finally scrubbing away. As my father yanked the power cord from the wall, the beeping died, and the darkness swallowed me whole. I was being murdered by my own flesh and blood, used as a bank account until I was no longer needed. I died in that sterile room, drowning in the realization that every person I ever loved was a monster who had been waiting for me to take my last breath. Then, I gasped. I woke up in a luxury hotel suite surrounded by silk sheets, five years in the past-the very morning of my wedding. Next to me lay Basile Delgado, the "Wolf of Wall Street" and my family's most dangerous enemy. In my first life, I ran from this room in a panic and lost everything. This time, I looked at the man who would eventually destroy my father's empire and decided to join him. "I'm not leaving, Basile. Marry me. Right now. Today."

I was sitting in the Presidential Suite of The Pierre, wearing a Vera Wang gown worth more than most people earn in a decade. It was supposed to be the wedding of the century, the final move to merge two of Manhattan's most powerful empires. Then my phone buzzed. It was an Instagram Story from my fiancé, Jameson. He was at Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris with a caption that read: "Fuck the chains. Chasing freedom." He hadn't just gotten cold feet; he had abandoned me at the altar to run across the world. My father didn't come in to comfort me. He burst through the door roaring about a lost acquisition deal, telling me the Holland Group would strip our family for parts if the ceremony didn't happen by noon. My stepmother wailed about us becoming the laughingstock of the Upper East Side. The Holland PR director even suggested I fake a "panic attack" to make myself look weak and sympathetic to save their stock price. Then Jameson’s sleazy cousin, Pierce, walked in with a lopsided grin, offering to "step in" and marry me just to get his hands on my assets. I looked at them and realized I wasn't a daughter or a bride to anyone in that room. I was a failed asset, a bouncing check, a girl whose own father told her to go to Paris and "beg" the man who had just publicly humiliated her. The girl who wanted to be loved died in that mirror. I realized that if I was going to be sold to save a merger, I was going to sell myself to the one who actually controlled the money. I marched past my parents and walked straight into the VIP holding room. I looked the most powerful man in the room—Jameson’s cold, ruthless uncle, Fletcher Holland—dead in the eye and threw the iPad on the table. "Jameson is gone," I said, my voice as hard as stone. "Marry me instead."
