Kapitel 1
Prologue
Cedric Killian Hunter was dying. And even though whatever the doctors told him he knew that his time had come and there was no point in stopping the inevitable. He did not even want to do that in the first place.
Cedric Hunter had been a man of his own name and caliber and he had certainly made his own place in the world and in the society with his skills and charms. The country which had consigned him as an outcaste and a bastard had been forced to give him the place and the title that he actually deserved. He had done a lot in his life too claim what was his and it had definitely not been very convenient either. But what was handed down easily to the future generations, they never came to understand it’s true value ever.
He had no regrets in his life, except maybe one. Cedric Hunter was a name which was known and revered in every field that he had touched and stepped foot in. Except family.
There he had been an utter and complete failure. He could never been a proper husband, or a proper father to any of the children he had sired. And the number was no little at all. Most men would shudder to think of the seven children that he had sired. Four of them were bastards, out of wedlock and all of them were his sons along with another daughter of his who never came to knew him. While the two daughters that he had were born of the result of his one marriage which he had made in order to seal the deal as the country’s most revered politician. He never desired to be the Prime Minister or anything close to it. But name, he had been able to relinquish his father’s name and his family’s name no doubt.
He had never even thought about caring for any of his sons or daughters till he had his first attack. And now that he was bed ridden he knew that he was going to die alone. And no one was going to be by his bedside, probably his butler and only two friends who were also his secretary and his lawyer. All of his children were accomplished in what they had done. There had been no help and no support from any one at all but still they had been true children to their own father and he was proud of them. But he could not meet them and tell it to them any longer.
He had made one grave mistake all his life. Never understood the value of family and never ever gave them any importance at all. The ones he had and the ones he could not have all of them. And that was his biggest regret of all. He had seen them from afar and seen them walking in the exact same steps that he had walked. It was strange how the blood ties are never really gone even though you grow up in different families and different countries altogether.
But not any longer. Even if they did not accept that he was their father, that did not change the fact and he was going to do his part to bring them to the right path and understand the value of love and family before it was too late.

The Hunter's Accidental Bride Epilogue
Oberon had planned to give this party before they left for Bolivia, its purpose to publicly celebrate their marriage which he still felt was the important thing to do. Their happiness together, he declared, would confound everyone and make it a scintillating affair, all the guests, glittering madly around them and trying to shine lights on cracks in their relationship and forced to concede failure because there were none.And that was certainly happening tonight, thought Rhonda, secretly amused by some of the outrageous questions that had been tossed at her and Oberon tonight as they stood arm in arm, greeting and chatting up with the guests who were rolling up despite the short notice. The whole A-list of Sydney society was agog with discussion to assess the newly married couple and how on earth had they been able to buy the place at Piper point as a family home.Besides, people generally wished them

Rhonda knew intuitively that he would retreat from her if she did not show her that she believed in him. Now was the moment to capture the intimacy that they had not reached before.”I am sorry that I listened to your mother. She conjured up things that have plagued my life and although I tried to look past them, I needed you to set them aside for me, to make me feel right with you again,” said Rhonda.“Have I done that?” asked Oberon, with blazing intensity in his gaze.“Yes,” she answered emphatically.” Yes, you have.”“Good!” A fierce triumph blazed from his eyes,” Because you are right for me, Rhonda. So very right for me. In every possible way that there is.”It would be easy now to revel in the rightness that he felt with her, to hold him to herself an

Oberon set down the towel that he had used to wipe down the water from his body and then drew Rhonda in a loose embrace as he focused his mind on speaking the truth on seeking the best path towards understanding. He rested his forehead lightly on hers and almost like he needed their minds to meet.“You have a family,” he started,” It may be dysfunctional but you have met every single member of it. You know what they are like. You know which cousins you like and which you hate. You know where they come from and you know what they can do. You can mix both freely with them, both on your mother’s side and on your father’s side.”Her shoulders pulled back, muscle tensing, whether in impatience or resistance he could not tell but she was in tune with this talk about her family.“That’s not to say that you were not alone, Rhonda. I know

Oberon felt too raw, too angry, too exposed, to be anywhere near Rhonda or near their son. He was not in the right state of mind to be taking care of Ruriel either. It was wrong to use his own fatherhood as a blindfold to the churning hatred stirred by his father’s attitude towards himself and his brothers and sisters…owing all of them nothing except their lives and not even each other. He had to deal with this all alone and then move past it…he had to step forward in the future.He sought out Karen, the nurse for Ruriel who was now an integral part of their household, finding her in the nursery quarters where Ruriel was due to have his morning nap. Having left his son in her care, he decided that what he needed at the moment was some of the hard mindless, physical exertion to get off from this sickening inner turbulence that was churning his insides.Oberon headed to the boatshed b

“Don’t you see it?” roared Oberon,” Don’t you get how obscene this is? We are not his sons and daughters.. we are not his children…we are just performing monkeys for him…who will perform the tricks and he will enjoy it fr

“Serendipity, yes,” Oberon bit his words concededly,” But my marriage to Rhonda had nothing to do with the conditions that my father laid down for inheriting a part of his estate which he supposed too be my worth and my share.”
The Hunter's Accidental Bride Chapter 88
The furious words crackled across the room as Oberon charged through it, barely clothed in one of the white toweling robes kept at the dressing room of the terrace pool. It hung loosely at his shoulders, gaping at the front because he clearly had not stopped long e

Rhonda was in the dining room, watching the apple-green silk curtains being put up. She had this warm snuggly feeling inside her that this was not a house anymore. And was gradually turning into their home. It was not a showcase of intimidating possessions but a pl

Jiang Sese podía recordar claramente cuán indiferente se veía su padre cuando le dijo: "Después de que te vayas, nunca menciones que eres de la familia Jiang, para que no hagas el ridículo". Su prometido fue aún más cruel, criticándola con una mirada desdeñosa en su rostro. "Jiang Sese, ¿cómo puedes hacer algo tan repugnante?" Estos recuerdos agitaron a un Jiang Sese ya débil.2 ES
