Chapter: The CarnivalVictor's POV I stood there in my office, hands buried in my pockets as I stared out the tall glass window overlooking the city skyline. The sun bathed the skyscrapers in golden light, but my thoughts were far away.Camilla…A smile tugged at my lips as her name filled my mind. My undeniablely beautiful, slightly fierce, and weird wife. I tilted my head slightly, recalling how she moved that day—swift, calm and deadly.“When did she learn to fight like that?” I muttered to himself, amused. “And since when did she know how to handle a gun?”The thought didn’t disturb me. It just intrigued me.I pulled out my phone and dialed James.“Sir?” James answered on the second ring.“I heard there’s a carnival in town,” I said, tone calm but firm. “I want a day planned there for Camilla and I. I want everything ready in 25 minutes. I’ll handle the rest.”“Yes, sir.”I ended the call, grabbed my coat, and headed out. This wasn’t just about pretending anymore. I strangely wanted to spend time with

Chapter: Thank You For Saving Me Carrie's POV "You better not drop me, Camilla!" Victor barked, his voice edged with panic as he hung on to my other hand for dear life, his palms slick with sweat and I could feel him slowly slipping.Below us, a violent stream rushed past jagged rocks, the sound of rushing water echoing off the stone walls of the cave.I gritted my teeth, my other hand gripping the crumbling edge of the cliff. "Don’t tempt me."Victor’s eyes widened. "Huh? You’re actually thinking about it!"I said nothing. Truth was, the idea crossed my mind. But I needed him. Not just because he was a key factor to my plan for ultimate revenge. I needed him because, deep down, despite everything, he was all I had right now.His hand slipped again slightly. "I can’t believe I’m gonna die like this! This is pathetic!""Shut up, Victor. I think I’ve got an idea.""No. No more of your—""Listen to me you good for nothing son of a bitch!" I snapped. "I’m going to swing you up. Once you’re up, you pull me, okay? We don’

Chapter: Let's Get A DivorceVictor's POV “I can’t see a damn thing,” I muttered, squinting into the darkness of the cave. I reached into my pocket for my phone.Camilla, who I assume was standing a few feet away with her arms crossed, spoke up. “Don’t!”I let out a short laugh. “Relax. I just need some light,” I said, pressing the power button. But the screen stayed black. My phone was dead.Camilla sighed in relief. “I think we should probably leave now.”I so wasn’t having it. “Not until I found some light.” I reached into my other pocket, pulling out a small torch. But before I could switch it on, Camilla kicked it from my hand.“What the hell?” I shouted.Ignoring me, Camilla took a step back. In my frustration, I let go of the cave door to roll toward the fallen torch. But as I did, the heavy stone door slammed shut behind me.Camilla groaned. “Please tell me there’s someone on the other side who can open that.”I clicked on the torch and shined it at the door, my jaw tightening. “Nope.”Camilla smacked

Chapter: Found You! Victor's POV “Well that's my story" I leaned back in my wheelchair, my usual smirk playing on my lips. "It's not my fault women are so attracted to me," I said, tapping my fingers against the armrest. “I mean, I'm a whooping billionaire with daddy issues, I'm the complete package" "But what of…” I cut him off "Isabella? Her body is smoking hot. She's basically like my childhood sweetheart, best woman to fuck with on the planet, she sure knows how to ride in style.”“No, I meant…” I cut him off once more "Now, some people might find it weird that I love my bodyguard, but I do. I mean, she's — I mean, he's always been there for me since the beginning, her— I mean his mysterious vibe just turns me the hell on"He had enough "I don’t care about your love life Romeo.” Detective rolen groaned, slamming his fists on the table "I’m asking you about your wife, Camilla."I scoffed.

Chapter: I'm Trapped In A Cave Carrie's POV I woke up in complete darkness. My body ached, my wrists sore from the rough surface I was laying on. The damp, musty air filled my lungs as I struggled to sit up. Panic set in as I reached forward, feeling nothing but cold stone. Where the hell am I?I screamed for help, my voice echoing through the walls which made me believe I was in some kind of cave. Alas, n there was no response. I started breathing faster, my chest rising and falling rapidly as I tried to connect the dots together at what had happened.That's it!It was all coming back.*****Earlier that day…“Isn't that Diego?” I said, looking out my window, he had thick shades of black on. He seemed calm, but there was a glint in his eye that made me feel uneasy.What was so important that he needed me to go with him? He had texted me about it yesterday but I still had no idea what is it we were doing “Hello… Camilla,” he smirked. Now that he knows I'm not Camilla, I need to be careful around him“Save the p

Chapter: ConfessionVictor's POV I woke up to the loud beeping of the heart monitor. The scent of antiseptic filled my nostrils as my eyes fluttered open. My vision was blurry at first, but as it cleared, I saw a familiar figure sitting beside me. I couldn't believe my eyes, I blinked a few times before whispering, "Carla?"The woman turned her head, and I immediately realized my mistake. It wasn’t Carla—it was Isabella.She let out a soft chuckle. "Carla? That must be the nurse's name. No, Victor. It's me. Isabella."I exhaled, my head pounding from the effort. "I'm sorry... What happened?"Isabella leaned forward, concern evident in her warm brown eyes. "Well to cut the story short, you fell from a balcony, Victor. Someone brought you here just in time."My brows furrowed. "Who?" Wasn't James pinned down? I mean he's the only one who was there with me. Unless…She hesitated before answering. "I don't know. But whoever it was, they saved your life."My mind reeled as I tried to piece everything togethe

Chapter: Who's hungry? “Uhm Ryan, right?” Amelia asked, feeling her cheeks heat up. “Last night was uhm... interesting.”“Interesting? That’s one way to put it,” Ryan said with a laugh. “You were pretty feisty for someone who doesn’t look like she parties often.”Amelia rolled her eyes. “Well it’s not exactly my scene. I just needed a break, you know.”Ryan tilted his head, his expression softening. “Tough day?”Amelia sighed. “Tough life. Let’s just say I’ve had a lot on my plate lately, and last night was my way of forgetting it all, even if it was just for a moment.”Ryan nodded, his gaze steady. “I get it. Sometimes you need to let loose. But hey, if you ever need another escape from reality, I’d be happy to join you.”Amelia hesitated. “Uhm, I don’t know if that’s a good idea…”Ryan raised an eyebrow, a playful grin spreading across his face. “Huh? Are you saying no to a good time, Amelia?”She laughed despite herself. “Fine. But don’t expect me to be all dancing and acting crazy again.”“Nah, I'll be

Chapter: RylanAmelia made her way up the stairs, her body heavy with exhaustion. She was tired of everything. All she needed now was her son, Mikey.As she entered the apartment, Mikey came rushing toward her, arms wide open. “Mom!” he cried, holding her tightly as though he never wanted to let go.“Honey, are you okay?” Amelia felt tears roll down his cheeks. “Don't cry, Mikey… Mummy's here” She gave him a reassuring pat on the head. Amelia loved Mikey with everything in her. She wasn't going to let anything or anyone come between them. Not even Kris. If he didn't want Mikey, she'd take care of him herself, just like always.“Where’s Mel?” she asked, hoping to thank her for watching over Mikey.“She’s still at work, but Sherie’s here,” Mikey answered.“Hi, Mrs. Quinn,” Sherie greeted from the kitchen, smiling. She was the regular babysitter when Mel and Amelia weren't home.“I’ve told you, Sherie, it’s just Amelia.” She didn't want anything to do with the Quinn family; bearing their name was bad e

Chapter: The Statue In The Garden Amelia's eyes fluttered open, her head spinning as she tried to adjust to the harsh hospital lights above her. The ceiling was blindingly white, making her squint.“Where...Where am I?”The doctor in the room glanced up from his clipboard. "Ah, great! You're awake. Your husband and son have been waiting outside. I'll bring them in." He checked a few notes and then added, "I'll be back to check on your vitals. We should be able to get you discharged today, Mrs. Fox." with that he left.Mrs Fox? Did I die and wake up in some weird parallel universe?Before she could think about it, Kris stormed into the room, a mix of relief and panic on his face. He was obviously worried. "Amelia!" he rushed to her side, his voice laced with concern. "Are you okay?"“I'm sorry you got hurt because of me” Leo stood there, guilt rushed through his veins.

Chapter: Mikey's New Friend Leo“Mommy?” Kris shot Amelia a deadly glare. “I thought you said you didn't have any kids?” With a confused look on his face, Kris stepped into the apartment, waiting for an explanation. “I can explain, you see…” Amelia's brain struggled to come up with a reasonable excuse. “Guess what I got!” Mel, Amelia’s friend, burst into the apartment, holding up a shopping bag. “Uh… am I interrupting something?” Even she could feel the tension hanging thick in the air. “I’ll just... go…” Amelia grabbed Mel by the arm and yanked her close, whispering urgently, “Play along!” “Kris meet my best friend and roommate, Mel.” Amelia gestured towards Mel. “Oh hey, dude,” Mel said calmly, clearly not knowing who Kris was. “Hey Mel, isn't it time to give Mikey, YOUR son, a bath?” Amelia gave Mel signals and winked uncontrollably, hoping Mel would catch on. “My son?” Mel blinked in confusion but caught on quickly. “Oh! Yes, MY son. Come on, Mikey, let's go get cleaned up,” she said, awkwardly picking

Chapter: Rejected Twice “I'm two months Pregnant!” “But…how? I-” she paused for a moment, quickly recalling the events of that fateful night, two months back. Amelia left the doctor's office. The look on her face gave out the impression that someone had died, and in a way, someone did. Her dreams of becoming an accountant were slipping away. Living under her father's roof, barely surviving, she couldn't imagine raising a child in her current state, let alone while still attending her lectures. It was all over. ************************ Amelia had gotten home, the test results in an envelope hidden behind her back. She quietly snuck into the house and made her way towards her room. “And where do you think you're going” A sharp voice demanded. It was Amelia's stepmom and Erica's mother, Liliana. “Didn't you hear me? You little wretch!” “I-” Amelia trembled as she spoke.
