Wanting Her Back Chapter 1 The Beginning

IT was a rainy, chilly day with slow cold wind that left shivers on those who were exposed to it. People walking down the street some in rainy coats while most wielding just umbrellas were startled by the rumbling thunder.

The lighting streak running across the sky seconds before the rumbling thunder. The pavement ground was soaked with water and so were the surrounding plants.

This has been Jennifer Aniston's worst day. The persistent downpour of rain was almost like it emulated her tearful eyes. She was on her knees crying bitterly in agony with only one wish on her mind, that all this was a dream or a bad mirage, she wished their would be no tombstones in front of her, she wished that her parents were alive to hug, pamper and console her. Her persistent and oblivious cry crushed everyone who came along to witness the funeral of her parents.

"Jennifer, sugar plum please, That's enough you are completely soaked if you stay out here much longer your going to catch a cold. Come inside and we will take you to your new home". A lady with a sweet and soft voice gently caressed her shoulder. She raised her head to reveal a fairly aged lady in her mid 40s with a nice, sympathetic look on her face. The woman softly smiled at Jennifer as she used her silk handkerchief to wipe the tears off her eyes and cheeks, she cried even harder when she felt the warmth and comfort from the woman as though it was her own mother. The woman looked perplexed and gave her a consoling hug. They both remained in that state for a while until Jennifer had stopped crying and broke the silence asking;

"Who are you?" She asked looking beyond the woman a man fairly older than her had approached them to stand beside her.

The couple looked at each other and kindly smiled.

"We are a friend of yours mother's, my name is Mrs Mirabel Griffin and this is my husband Donald" . She continued " from now on you will be living with us. We will be your new family". Jenn was shocked even some worth a bit offended.

"But what about my parents if your going to be my new family", jenn said. "Honey am sorry about your loss but your parents are gone and their not coming back, it's unfair yes but thats just the way life is".

Mrs Mirabel took in a deep cold breath and tilted her head in pity and continued.

"I know you miss them but in as much as they are gone they will always be a part of your family", she said this pointing to Jenn's chest.

"But for the time being you will be staying with us and we will take good care of you so that your parents can rest in peace". Mirabel explained carefully and softly as not to trigger Jenn to anger. Jenn looked up and took a gaze at the woman and embraced the woman, she quickly found comfort in her words as she was convinced the woman was telling the truth. Jenn turned and gazed at her parents tombstones one more time .

She turned and followed the couple, she didn't have a choice but to follow this couple, she really didn't know what to do after loosing her parents at a very young age. Just 15 years of age and as naive as they come, there's not much a girl at that age can do for her self.

Totally clueless and afraid Jenn taught ,"from now on I'll have to face this world on my own" the taught of going through life on her own frightened her. Within herself she was certain going with the couple was the way to go. As they all Departed Jenn smiled bitterly, it was not supposed to end this way.

It was supposed to be one of those family bonding that her family always look forward to ever weekend. They originally planned to stay at home but she insisted on going to her favorite theme park. She really begged her father to take her there. Her Dad later agreed; It was raining that day, and there was a busy traffic. Her dad liked to crack jokes while he drives so they always laughed and teased each other, when suddenly, the car flung into the main way from the right at an amazing speed. It all happened so fast and swift within a blink of an eye. Just like that her ordinary life was over.

Her family was gone, she often blames herself for thier death because they might just have been alive if she didn't persuade her Dad to take them outting. She sighed.

On the route to her new family life, the couple mentioned that they had a son who's presently enrolled in school. Mr. Donald claimed that his kid is attractive but can be nasty and unpleasant sometimes. Jenn found it interesting that they had an offspring as she wouldn't be alone after all. She's always wished for a sibling, an elder brother in this case. She even remembered crying to her father expressing her desire for a brother. Her father would always laugh at her remark. She was saddened once more when she remembered her parents.

It was still pouring but not as heavily as previous and there was no thunder and lightning streaks across the sky.

After a long drive they pulled up on a driveway to a lonely home. The house was three stories tall and had a large yard. Jennifer took a good look out of the car window at the house.

Mrs Mirabel smiled and said, " That will be your new home, Jennifer". "Yes this would be my new home but I would always prefer a home where I can be with my parents " Jennifer whispered to herself.

I was the titan of Wall Street until an indictment and an ankle monitor turned my penthouse into a gilded cage. To save face, I was forced into a marriage with Elza, a "mute" girl from the Schmidt family whom I treated as nothing more than a silent piece of furniture while my empire crumbled. The night I was poisoned at a high-society gala, a mysterious server in an oversized uniform saved my life with terrifying, clinical precision. They disappeared into the night, leaving me with a silver cufflink and a burning obsession to find the shadow who held my life in their hands. Back home, I took my frustration out on Elza, telling her she was "exhausting to look at" and "smelled like sickness" after her charity visits. Her own family treated her like a stray dog, trying to humiliate her at the next gala by dressing her in what they claimed was a cheap knockoff while whispering to the press that she was nothing but a high-end escort. "Stay out of my way," I would growl at her, never noticing the steel in her eyes. I sat at my table, watching my rivals' stocks plummet and wondering who "The Zero"—the legendary financial ghost—really was. I never suspected that the woman I ignored was the same one solving the equations that were currently burning Manhattan to the ground. The injustice peaked when Elza stood before the city's elite, not as a victim, but as a queen. She dropped over a hundred million dollars to buy back her family’s legacy, revealing a secret fortune that made my own empire look like pocket change. As I grabbed her wrist and saw the small red mole hidden beneath her watch, the truth hit me like a physical blow. The silent wife I had despised was the savior I had been hunting, and she was finally done playing the victim. "We have a lot to talk about, wife," I whispered, realizing I had been sleeping next to the most dangerous woman in the world.

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."

The sterile white of the operating room blurred, then sharpened, as Skye Sterling felt the cold clawing its way up her body. The heart monitor flatlined, a steady, high-pitched whine announcing her end. Her uterus had been removed, a desperate attempt to stop the bleeding, but the blood wouldn't clot. It just kept flowing, warm and sticky, pooling beneath her. Through heavy eyes, she saw a trembling nurse holding a phone on speaker. "Mr. Kensington," the nurse's voice cracked, "your wife... she's critical." A pause, then a sweet, poisonous giggle. Seraphina Miller. "Liam is in the shower," Seraphina's voice purred. "Stop calling, Skye. It's pathetic. Faking a medical emergency on our anniversary? Even for you, that's low." Then, Liam's bored voice: "If she dies, call the funeral home. I have a meeting in the morning." Click. The line went dead. A second later, so did Skye. The darkness that followed was absolute, suffocating, a black ocean crushing her lungs. She screamed into the void, a silent, agonizing wail of regret for loving a man who saw her as a nuisance, for dying without ever truly living. Until she died, she didn't understand. Why was her life so tragically wasted? Why did her husband, the man she loved, abandon her so cruelly? The injustice of it all burned hotter than the fever in her body. Then, the air rushed back in. Skye gasped, her body convulsing violently on the mattress. Her eyes flew open, wide and terrified, staring blindly into the darkness. Her trembling hand reached for her phone. May 12th. Five years ago. She was back.
