At his office >>>>

"Baxter. Does this file contain all the information about him which I want to know?" Eyeing the brown file, I asked to Max Baxter my loyal tracker friend who is currently seated in front of me in my office cabin.

"Yes. Few things you might not like it in there just giving you a heads up bro." He said while pushing the file towards me.

"What the f**k!" I yelled looking into the details and pictures in the file.

"Calm down lover boy... I know it's shocking to know that information but I think he is no harm for your girl."

"What do you mean? These pictures states otherwise." I was pissed off.

"That picture is the one when she had gone along with Cherry for her checkup." He stated.

"Max I need you to put an eye on Vince D'costa. Now I need details of his every damn move." I sneered in anger.

"Got it... But...." He replied while thinking about something else.

"Is there something more to it?"

"Well, Cherry and Vince.... I think these two are planning something together. Their friendship bloomed very soon into a good one and are always hanging out once in a week. I know she is trying to get into your good books now. But I feel it's

all a facade and her intentions are not good. There is still that evil glint in her eyes sometimes. I even doubt if she is pregnant!" Max said while thinking out loud of all things which he felt.

"Why do you think they are together planning something?" I asked him.

"Well, if you see Cherry never get along with anyone unless if that person will be helpful for her in any way. And I think she is planning something against Scarlet. Because at the party she got acknowledged with Vince and from then onward he is also being quite close with Scarlet. Don't you think..."

"They are trying to take her away from me." I stated gritting my teeth after realizing what he was getting at.

"Exactly and now that you know who Vince is, you will have to deal with him cautiously. As you instructed, I am also trying to get a hold of that doctor who takes care of Cherry's health checkups. I will soon know about her truth as well." I sat in silence for a moment, thinking about what to do next.

"For time being let Ray protect your girl while we get more information on her."

"I was planning to do the same. But I need to be more vigilant and make sure none of my family gets hurt due to her or him."

At Scarlet's and Alexander's New Apartment>>>>>>

"Dove... I'm home."

As I got into our apartment, I saw a teenager standing in front of me while eyeing me up and down. She had a petite figure with beautiful blonde hair, baby blue eyes and she looked eerily familiar with someone whom I know though not sure who.

"You must be the hot boyfriend of her?" She said while pointing her index finger at me.

"Excuse me. Who are you? What are you..." I was about to ask her but she interrupted me.

"I'm Sera. I'm Scarlet's little sister." She stands up and put forward her hand to greet me but instead of taking her hand in mine I envelope her in a warm brotherly hug.

"Welcome home Sera. I'm Alexander Pearce."

"Yeah I know! Duh..." She chuckles and then takes a seat on the couch. Taking a seat beside her I took a look at her and realized why she felt so familiar to me earlier. Both sisters' almost look alike. Clearing her throat she said,

"Well, Scarlet has gone out for some grocery shopping....She will be back soon."

I just nodded in response. I could also see that she is a bit nervous and was changing the channels one by one.

"So are you enjoying college? Being a medical student you must be having a lot to study...I suppose." I started the conversation to make her feel comfortable.

"Yeah... But I do enjoy while studying at college except there is this one person who is a rich brat who irritates the hell out me!" She said with an irritated look.

"Oh! Do you want me to do something about him?" I asked with concern.

"No. It's okay. I'll deal with him. No worries." She said reassuringly.

"Sera...If you need any kind of help you can always ask me. Being your brother I'll always protect you." I said while she looked at me with a bright smile and nodded in response.

"You're really into my sister. Aren't you? You won't break her heart right?" She asked me softly.

"I will never ever break her heart because she is as precious as a rare gem to me. She is the one whom I always want to cherish because I love her to my core so rest be assured." I said sincerely to her and her face lit up.

"She is the only family I have. Do take good care of her. You are a really nice human being for supporting my sister and she is so lucky to have you as her boyfriend. I totally ship you both!"

"Hahaha... the truth is I am the luckiest man on earth to have your sister as my girlfriend!" I said while she just gasped with what I said.

"You're such a perfect guy!" She stated with happiness.

"Morning Dove. I whispered into her ear while she slowly woke up next to me. Mumbling a morning she snuggled into my chest and closed her eyes once again.

"You can take a week off as Sera is here, I know you two want to spend some time together." I kissed on top of her forehead while we both were lying down on our bed.

"But there is already so much work piling up as I was not there in office for two days for shifting the apartment. Besides how will you manage everything?" She asks while looking up at me with worry.

"Oh don't you worry. Maddie is there to help me. You should be with Sera as family matters a lot." I said while holding her face with both my hands and then gave her a peck. She nodded in response and pulled me closer and places her head into crook of my shoulder. We lay on bed for some time and then got up to freshen up and start our day ahead.

She was getting ready while looking into the mirror. I slowly moved towards her and hugged from behind. Letting my head rest on her shoulders I admired her beauty through the mirror. Inhaling her scent always made me feel calm. I kissed her side of the neck and whisper into her ears,

"Dove.... close your eyes."

She did as I said while biting her lower lip. I placed a simple heart shaped diamond pendant chain around her neck and clasped its end behind.

"Open your eyes."

Looking into the mirror she said in a small voice,

"It's beautiful." While she placed her hand on the locket, she looked at me and me at her admiringly.

Then turning around I held her face in my hands, I gently kissed her. Putting all my emotions into that one kiss which says I love her to eternity. As a response she kissed me back with same gentleness which made me smile and we embraced that small moment together, standing silently while holding each other in our arms.

After a while we moved out from our room towards the living area to see Sera setting up the breakfast for us.

"Morning Love birds!" Sera happily chirped.

"Morning Sera."

"Well I thought I'll prepare a hearty breakfast for you both!"

We smiled and seated to have our breakfast.

"So...what are you both planning to do today?" I ask while pouring the coffee into my cup.

"We are going shopping to our hearts content." Sera exclaimed excitedly.

"Yeah...I've invited Estelle and Taylor as well. It will be a girl's day out and will have lots of fun!" She informed.

"Okay. I will tell Ray to get the car for you guys and accompany you all today." I said while checking few updates on my phone.

"What? No... It's a girl's day out Alex. He will get bored being with us. Estelle can drive her car so we all will be fine. "She protested.

"No. It's not about driving the car Dove. It's about safety. So either Ray will come along with you all or else I will set up four guards who will be constantly giving you protection. It's your choice." I shrugged.

Sera was just looking at both of us left to right and then stated,

"You both are so cute!"

"Fine... Ray it is then..." Scarlet grumbles and finish eating her breakfast. While I call up Ray and informs him to go along with them.

I hug my Dove and place a kiss on her forehead and smiles at her.

"I love you. Take care. I will join you guys for dinner okay."

She nods and then I crash my lips onto her. She sighs and then I turn towards Sera, gives her a sideways hug and kiss on her forehead. Waving a bye to them I left our apartment and drove off towards my office.

At his Cabin>>>>>

"What have you got Baxter?"

"A twist...."

"Well what is it? She is pregnant for real or not?" I asked while looking at my best friend.

"Look into the file." He passed the file to me.

"I looked into the file to see what I knew from the start. I just needed a confirmation on the news that's it.

But the next thing which I heard from him made me stiffen and look at him in worry.

"Hmm..."
