Alex dialed Kay's line Alexah has been barging him wanting to see her step siblings and step mom but he wasn't planning on introducing her as his daughter that was the condition he made to her and she agreed.
" Yes...what's up?" Kay said on the other end.
" Pick up Alexah and bring her here." Alex said Kay almost choked on his wine he raised a brow and said. " Are you finally going to tell Lara the truth...remember you'll be a dead three." Kay smirked.
" of course not I'll introduce her as my niece in the meantime.... now stop asking silly questions and do as i say." Alex then hang up the call Kay sighed telling Lucas to prepare the car, when they arrived at Anderson resident Adrianna's men immediately stopped them.
" Mr Zen our apologizes but we must do our job to search you and your men." the leader said Kay raised a brow and said." No need to search my men you can search me instead they're remaining out here." he lifted his arms in the air like Lucas wanted to argue with them but Kay stopped him before the group leader could even touch the corner of his suit a voice spoke from behind.
" Nick... Mr Zen is my respectable guest it would be an insult to him to search him step away." Adriana said with a slight smile Nick immediately stepped away Kay put down his arms.
" My apologizes Kay....they're only doing their jobs...you know safety measures not everybody wants me alive." she said
" I understand... still beautiful it's like you haven't aged at all." Kay smiled.
" And still flirty as always.... what do i owe this sudden visit?" she asked.
" Well Alex asked to pick up little Alexah for him." Kay answered.
" i see....and his wife?" Adriana tilted her head.
" He can take care of Lara...don't worry about it... may i?" Adriana nodded at one of her men to bring Alexah.
" Uncle..." a little voice shouted out excitedly she ran towards them Kay kneeled on one knee giving her a hug.
" how are you princess?"
" Am good....are you here to pick me up?" Alexah asked excitedly.
" Yep are you ready?" Kay robbed her hair.
" Yes..."
" Be a good girl Alexah don't be mischievous. " Adriana said.
" I'll be obedient mommy...don't miss me to much." Alexah said hugging her mom before hooping in the car.
" Have a good day beautiful." Kay said and left Adriana watched the gray sports car disappear from her view she sighed going back inside.
When Kay arrived at The Villa Lara was seated in the living room with Alex and their twins when Lara saw Kay standing there she slightly smiled.
" Kay what are you doing standing there...join us." Lara noticed a small body hiding behind Kay she clang onto his jacket firmly when Alexah saw Alex sitting there she ran to him hiding beside him Lara looked at Alex questioningly.
" Why are you hiding...didn't you say you wanted to meet my wife and little siblings?" Alex said Alexah slowly left Alex' side approaching Lara and stood in front of her and said.
" Hi...am Alexah Anderson Alex' niece....nice to meet you." Alexah introduced herself.
" hi am Lara...you are such an adorable little girl." Lara smiled she couldn't help falling into this little girl's beauty she resembled Alex quite a lot same eyes same thin lips and facial features she wore a cute white dress tying her long light brown hair into a ponytail if she didn't introduced herself to Lara as Alex' niece Lara would have thought Alexah was Alex' daughter.
" Alex told me you're a really nice kind person since you're his wife can i call you ma'am Lara... it's more like mommy but it's different in some way i think." Alexah tapped her little chin Lara couldn't help laughing out by her cute self.
" Of course sweety you can call me anything. "
" Ma'am Lara can i see my little siblings now?" Alexah asked starring into Lara's eyes.
" Sure be careful not to wake them up alright sweety."
" I'll be careful." Alexah tiptoed to the cradles on the other side the twins were sleeping soundly she smiled upon seeing them.
" hi little brother and sister... am Alexah your big sister. " she whispered.
At lunch the four sat on the dinning table enjoying a warm meal when Lara spoke.
" So Alexah who is your mom and Dad and where are they?" she asked Kay wanted to choke but controlled himself he stared at Alex but to his surprise Alex was so calm it seems he trusted his daughter to what she'll answer to Lara Alexah smiled slightly and answered.
" My mom is a doctor she gets really busy at work and comes back home late and my Dad is a business man quite busy but he does make time for me quite a good man."
" And do you have a brother or sister?" Lara asked.
" Am the only child so it makes me happy to have the twins as my little sister and brother." Alexah said excitedly Lara smiled seeing such an adorable child she loved cute children.
" Mama what are the twins names?" Alexah asked." Well Alex and i decided to name them....Mariana and Max." Lara smiled.
" Wow such pretty names." Alexah clapped her little hands excitedly after lunch Alexah said her goodbyes to Lara, Alex and the twins then left with Kay Lara hugged Alex inhaling his sweet scent and said.
" She's such a sweet pretty girl she resembles you quite a lot you know...for a moment there i thought she was your daughter but again i thought you would never lie to me nor betray me...right Alex." Lara gave a faint smile Alex robbed her back gently kissing her hair and said.
" I will always love you Lara no one can take your place in my heart and life i only belong to you."
" And I belong to you husband." Lara whispered Alex felt bad lying to her he hated himself for it the rest of the afternoon Lara and Alex took their twins for a stroll in the park at 4 O'clock Alex had a conference call meeting since he couldn't go back to the office yet because he had to take care of his wife and kids he would work from home and answer calls and attend a meeting using his laptop the conference meeting lasted for five hours it was already dark outside Lara made sure not to disturb him Alex was so tired but he still stood straight and strong like nothing could ever bring him down when he went back to his room Lara was still awake waiting for him she curled up into the sofa her beautiful eyes glued onto something she was holding in her arms that she didn't seem to notice him in the room, Alex slowly and carefully approached her he read some words on one of the page and saw some interesting pictures that he couldn't help lifting the corner of his mouth and said.
" You're still awake." hearing a deep sexy voice speak behind her Lara jumped up hiding the book looking at Alex.
" you....you scared me to death how dare you sneak up on me like that." Lara got annoyed.
" Am sorry i didn't mean to startle you...tell me what do you have there am quite interested." Alex smiled. Lara blushed shaking her head slightly.
" It's... it's nothing just an ordinary book that's all." she looked down.
" It doesn't look ordinary to me baby...may i have a look at it?" Alex forwarded his long slender hand Lara shook her head seeing his little wife won't hand it over easily he decided to woah her he leaned in breathing on her neck while robbing her face Lara leaned back enjoying the pleasure she was losing herself to him he was arousing her feelings she closed her eyes biting her lower lip.
" Ah...plea...please don't." she managed to get these words out in a quivering tone but Alex didn't stop he was enjoying her reaction he put one hand around her waist robbing his soft warm lips against hers Lara couldn't take the torment anymore she wanted to kiss him passionately but Alex pulled away standing a few inches away starring at her Lara finally stepped out of her daze starring into his blue eyes Alex already got what he wanted that's why he stepped back Lara saw the book in his arms and got shy and irritated.
" THE BOOK OF SEDUCTION!....tell me wife are you planning on seducing me? that wouldn't be such a bad idea you know." Alex gave a mischievous smirk Lara felt her cheeks burning up she stood up on her feet and said.
" You tricked me...that's not nice." she got angry blue veins popped out of her forehead.
" it's not a bad idea you trying some of these moves on me you know... i would quite pleased baby." Alex teased her to no end.
" Please stop...Maya gave it as a wedding gift...i was just bored so i thought of peaking inside but i wasn't planning on seducing you." Lara bit her lip painfully Alex stepped forward cupping her cheeks and said.
" Time to shower." he carried her to the bathroom filled the bathtub with warm water he removed her cloths dipping her inside he took the sponge pouring liquid soap on it and started washing her body Lara leaned back enjoying the service of her husband.
" Ain't you coming in?" Lara said in a flat voice.
" Later.." Alex replied he washed her hair, shoulders and thighs Lara's eyes were glued on him he looked so focused and charming as if handling a business Alex kissed her long smooth leg sucking her pink toes Lara shivered closing her eyes Alex took off his cloths getting inside the tub he kissed her lips so gently and passionately he kissed her neck and chest teasing and caressing her.
" Ah..." Lara moaned wrapping her long slender arms around his neck she kissed him back with the same intensity and energy her soft white milk breast pressed against his hard sexy chest Alex split her legs apart and entered her body they made love inside the tub, when got out of the tub she felt weak in the knees Alex wrapped her in a towel carrying her to their room he dried her hair and body helped her get dressed in her silk nightdress and put her to bed he also got dressed and said.
" I will check up on Mariana and Max get some rest." He kissed her forehead and left when he came back Lara already fell asleep he slept beside her pulling her into his arms and slept.
Alex got up early in the morning to get ready after getting ready he arranged Lara's cloths and the twin's cloths prepared a warm bath for her he told Lydia what to prepare for breakfast and left for the office he had an important meeting with the board of directors, when Alex entered the building the stuff greeted and congratulated him.
" good morning Mr CEO, Congratulations on becoming a father. " the receptionist smiled.
" Thank you. " Alex gave a slight smile the receptionist was surprised for a moment her boss has never responded back with words apart from a slight nod and he actually showed a smile even though it was unnoticeable Gracia could see it she was so happy that she locked the moment in her heart.
" Welcome back Mr CEO... congratulations. " the stuff greeted. Alex gave a slight nod going into his office.
" Mr Grey...Welcome back you don't know how happy it makes me to have you back...i mean back in the office... Congratulations. " Rossy smiled Alex raised a brow taking a seat.

" How is Lara and the twins?"
" they're alright. " Alex replied calmly.
" And how are you? " she asked so softly and motherly Alex paused he was confused why she suddenly asked about him so warmly it's not like her to act motherly after pushing the thought away he answered calmly.

" am leaving now...take care." she turned around and left Alex watched her straight proud back till she disappeared in the hall.
" Mr Grey...it's almost time for your next meeting. " Rossy said Alex turned around and started walking away.
....
Lara spent her afternoon watching Opera series while her two babies slept soundly beside her in the living room she enjoyed her snacks following the film when her phone rang she immediately answered.
" Hello.."
" Mrs Grey are you that busy in your marriage to check up on your only best friend. " Maya said.
" You know i can never forget you Maya i always think about you... it's just that the twins take a lot of my time that i barley have time for my self." Lara explained.
" i already miss the little angels."
" that's right...tell me about you how are you and how is everything going with you and James. " Lara asked.
" Well am alright just busy at the gallery and about me and James we...are..okay."
" Oh Maya... is anything going on between you two do you have a problem? " Lara asked.
" It's not something i would like to discuss over the phone." Maya said simply.
" I will be here when you come back just know am here for you alright..love you."
" love you...say hello to Mariana and Max for me OK. "
" OK... " Lara smiled before hanging up when Mr Antony spoke behind her.
" Mrs Grey you have a guest." Lara turned around a little puzzled and said.
" A guest...! she repeated cause she had no idea who could visit her just as she was thinking who it could be a tall beautiful woman walked in she wore a short tight black leather skirt with a black long sleeve shirt with long high leather boots she looked sexy and badass her black hair was tied into a ponytail Lara frowned upon seeing the woman she never expected to get a visit from her.
" How are you Mrs Grey...it's been quite a while we saw each other if i remember correctly it was on your wedding day." Kara smirked.
" What are you doing here Kara... you're not welcome in my house." Lara stood up.
" Oh chill will you...i just came back from Australia and wanted to congratulate you on your twins." Kara smiled approaching the twin's cradle she couldn't help a smile forming on the corner of her mouth.
" they resemble Alex a lot...you know what i should be the one in your place right now and these should be my kids with Alex he was supposed to be mine but you stole him away from me Lara...i like Alex ever since i was three but he never noticed me and when his mother took him to the training base when he was five i vowed to wait for him and love him forever...he returned back home when he was sixteen i was really excited to have him back thought that maybe this time he would notice me but no he instead fell in love with a person i considered my best friend she knew how i felt about Alex but she still went and stabbed me in the back by accepting to be his girlfriend... they loved each other, stayed with each other but i never gave up on him till one day she disappeared away in his life she was the only woman Alex ever loved and even became cold and indifferent to never love or look at another woman again... i begged my brother to convince Alex to date me to make me his girlfriend but his answer is always no no no...till you came along Lara i can't believe you made him forget his ex lover and fall for you instead...though i wonder what Alex would do if his ex - girlfriend came back standing in front of him who would he choose." Kara gave a sly smile..each word that left her mouth felt like a sharp dagger going through Lara's chest to her heart it was so painful all the words such painful information... " is it why Alex never told her he loved her in the beginning was it because he still loved his ex and couldn't get her out of his heart...does he still love her?, does he think about her? would he leave her if she were to come back into his life?. all these thoughts kept pushing their way into Lara's mind.
" You know what Lara Alex never stopped searching for his ex when she left him..he searched the entire country and other countries and cities...she meant a lot to him even when you were contracted to marry him he was still on search of her when you got to England and met him he was still searching for her she meant the world to him." Lara couldn't help breaking down tears formed into her shinny gray eyes.
" Why...why are you telling me all this shit huh." Lara said angrily.
" Because it's the truth...if i can't have Alex no one will not even that bitch of a woman who stole him away." Kara said with a satisfied smirk.
" Well listen to me carefully Kara... Alex is my husband now and the father to my little twins i don't care about you or that woman just stay away from us and my family understood... now get out....leave! Lara shouted out Kara sneered turning around and walked away as if proud of her intentions today her mission is done she got what she wanted now Lara will doubt Alex and question him they will have to breakup and get a divorce and Alex will be all hers." she smiled getting into her car and drove away.
Lara crouched down bursting into tears she buried her little face in her palms.
" Mrs grey are you alright? " Mr Antony asked worriedly.
" Please leave me alone...i want to be alone." Lara said in a low flat voice.
" Did Miss Kara say something to you?
" i want to be alone...please leave me alone." she cried harder Mr Antony obeyed her order and left he immediately called Alex and told him everything what happened Alex crouched the phone in his arms he hang up standing up all eyes were on him.
" this meeting is over...James come with me." Alex said coldly James immediately knew something was wrong, Ann frowned she waited so long to get an opportunity to see Alex again and this shareholders meeting was her only chance to meet him, James stood up and said.
" Kina...where is your sister?"
" I left her home she said she didn't have plans today so i didn't think She'll need supervision. " Kina said a little stressed.
" if she does anything stupid... i won't hesitated to send her back." James said coldly and left.
" Am sorry everyone but we will have to change the day of the meeting... will keep you updated. " Rossy said and left.
" Alex what happened? " James asked in the elevator
" It's your sister she went to see Lara... i will leave her to you...or i might do something drastic. " Alex said when they left the building Alex got into his black sports car and drove off James also got into his car and followed behind Kara's car and Alex' car crossed paths even though Alex knew it was her car he didn't even bother to throw an eye on her Kara was disappointed but shook her head a small smile carving her lips, James car stopped in front of her Kara immediately pulled the breaks pulling over and got out of the car.
" Brother...are you alright? why would do that the could have been an accident. " Kara said worriedly.
" What did you do?" James asked.
" what do you mean?" Kara frowned.
" You know don't act stupid... what did you do to Lara? "
" Don't tell me you almost crashed my car because of her James. "
" i won't repeat myself little girl." James narrowed his eyes at her Kara has always been afraid of her elder brother but also loved and respected him even though he treats her like trash.
" I didn't do anything bad to her... i only told her the truth that i love Alex and will always do and i will do anything to have him....and yes i also told her about Adriana that if she were to present herself in front of Alex he would choose his ex lover and not her."
" Damn it Kara... did you mention Adriana's name to Lara. " James got pissed.
" of course not am not stupid James... i was just annoyed by her she stole Alex from me...Alex only belongs to me his mine." Kara said like a crazy person James grabbed her arms nagging it.
" Listen to me carefully little girl...if Lara suspects anything i won't hesitate to send you back to the mental hospital cause it seems you haven't fully recovered... now get this you won't leave the house till i say so...you will have no contact outside everything you need will be provided in the house...that's your punishment. "
" What's the difference between staying inside the house and that cell hell...yes am crazy but am crazy for Alex it's because of him i became like this...i don't care if i go back there i will get what i want." Kara screamed out.
" Oh there is a difference... you get to eat good food, be on your phone and laptop, sleep on a comfortable bed while in the mental hospital you get to have bitter soup, get tied onto the bed no contact on the outside world different medicine and injections... if i don't punish you Alex will and trust me he won't go easy on you." James said calmly lifting two fingers in the air signalling Lucas...Lucas immediately came to him.
" Lucas take Kara back to the Villa and arrange tight security...tell them to keep a close eyes on her... is it understood. "
" Yes Sir... Miss Kara please come with me." Lucas said Kara glared at her brother but followed his orders she slowly turned around and left with Lucas in the Gray sports car. James sighed heavily leaning on his car he remembered Maya and how he misses her so much he wished she was here with him they haven't spoken to each other for a week because everyone is busy with work and didn't want to disturb one another they could only text each other for 20min, James pushed the thought away getting into his car and drove off.
when Alex arrived at the Villa he rushed to the living room seeing his little wife crouched on the floor hugging her knees he felt pain deep down the twins were taken away by Lydia to look after them Alex approached Lara slowly he crouched down on her level and touched her soft smooth brown hair and said.
" Lara..." when Lara heard her name coming out from the man she loved deeply made her look up her eyes where swollen and red her pointy nose was red from crying.
" A...Alex. " she said his name out her voice was harsh and dry she felt pain on her throat as she spoke it was dry and painful.
" Let's go to our room it's cold sitting here." he carried her upstairs to their room he made her lay down but Lara didn't let go of his neck she hugged him tightly as if he would disappear and leave her for Good she was scared indeed Kara's words punctured her heart.
" don't let me go Alex am scared...am scared you might leave me and go back to your ex girlfriend.. don't leave me am begging you." Lara cried out even more Alex didn't let her go in fact he held her close to his body never wanting to let go she was his life his body and soul his breath and a reason to keep on living.
" Lara... i will never leave you...you mean the world to me i love you so much no one could ever replace you nor take you away from me...the woman you speak if is my past you are my present and future... trust me wife." Alex' words seemed to have worked Lara got a relief she slightly smiled.
" i love you Alex. " she said in a flat voice.
" i love more...now let's fix you up you look like a red tomato about to explode. " Alex teased her Lara frowned...Alex picked her up to the bathroom they showered together and put her to rest before going downstairs to look after the twins when he left Lara opened her eyes took her phone and dialed Alexah's number the call was answered immediately.
" Mama Lara.." a little sweet voice spoke on the other side.
" Alexah sweety i want you to do me favor. " Lara said.
" And what's that?"
" i want you to call Alex and tell him you want to see him understood. "
" He won't agree." Alexah said as if so sure.
" Why not?" Lara creased her brows.
" Don't you know your husband by now he wouldn't leave you especially if i just visited yesterday... his such a pain." Alexah explained Lara also thought Alexah was right after what just happened would he really leave her side?
" Uhm Alexah dear make something up i want him to leave the house and keep him busy till 9 O'clock OK. "
" well alright i will try." Alexah said.
" great...alright bye i think his coming to the room now." Lara hang up the call just then Alex entered the room and saw her sitting up he frowned.
" You're awake...did i wake you?" he approached her.
" Uhm no i just went to the bathroom that's all." Lara smiled just then Alex' phone rang he swiped the screen and answered.
" What do you want?" he said Alexah was a little shocked her father was really something else was he really her biological Dad, she thought.
" is this how you speak to your child even when she's quite sick." Alexah sniffed as if she was crying... Alex raised a brow and said.
" You don't sound sick to me."
" well i...i am sick am burning up and have a high fever...please come see me Dad."
" your mother is there she's a doctor let her take care of you...I'll come see you tomorrow bye."
" wait..wait..wait Daddy am your daughter your first am telling you am not feeling well if it was a normal parent he would have left everything and rush to his daughter but you...you act if you don't care how bad." Alexah cried out Alex sighed helplessly and said.

" Alexah.. she isn't feeling to well she needs me...but again i can't leave you alone."
" it's fine am alright Alexah is so young she needs you...don't worry about me go to her. " Lara smiled Alex hesitated for. a long time.
