Chapter: CHAPTER 009Kristen marched furiously to the Don's mansion. Her steps were swift and angry. She reached the front gate and pushed it open to enter, but at the same moment, a guard was coming out. She tried to walk past the guard but was apprehended. "Where're you going?" the guard asked sternly. Kristen hissed and made to go in again, but the guard flung her backwards. He was already getting pissed. He obviously didn't like Kristen, none of the Don's personal guards actually liked her because of how bitchy she was. "If you touch me again I'll make sure your head ends up in a plate" Kristen threatened. The guard scoffed and laughed dryly. It was obvious that someone had pissed her off and she had come for the Don to get the person punished, something she was passionately hated for. "Since you're so mannerless and arrogant to answer a simple question, I think you should get yourself out of here" the guard, Marco, said with a burning glare. Asides being one of the Don's personal guards,

Chapter: CHAPTER 008Amaya stayed restless in her room, expecting to be called by the boss at any second. She feared what would become of her, but tried to hide her fear. Her palms were sweaty, same as her forehead and anyone could notice that she was slightly shaking. "You need to stop panicking Amaya. Look at you, you're drenched in your own sweat already" Sophia spoke out when she couldn't tolerate Amaya's restlessness anymore. She felt pity for Amaya, but panicking wouldn't solve the issue. "I know Sophia, but I can't help it. I've gone through hell in the hands of this man before, and I'm about to go through hell again. Do you think it's easy?" Amaya asked at the verge of tears. Sophia sighed, walking over before wrapping her hands around Amaya, drawing her closer. Amaya broke, sobbing quietly. Sophia had no words to comfort Amaya and just held her tighter in the embrace. Amaya slowly disengaged from the hug and walked into the bathroom to wash her face. She stared at her reflection in the mi

Chapter: CHAPTER 007Daniel paused at the corridor, looking restless. "Why does she look so familiar? Why does she have the exact same eyes, pointed nose and sharp jawline? Who was she?". These questions kept running in his head and he had no answer to them. He heard that the Don was going to fish out the debtor who refused to pay his debts but instead, went into hiding. The Don had sent him on an important goods exchange, so he didn't witness anything or even see Amaya's parents. He only heard from the Don what had happened. The Don had asked him to inform Amaya that he needed her shortly. He located her room easily when he was told she was with the pretty faced, big eyed maid. He knew Sophia and thus, locating Amaya had been easy. But then she had looked too familiar to ignore. "You might be overthinking" his inner voice said. He refused to believe that. He'd find every possible information about her, only then would he rest or conclude that he was overthinking things. He walked back to the Don's

Chapter: CHAPTER 006Amaya watched silently as Esme catwalked gracefully out of the corridor. She folded her fists in anger, and bit hard on her bottom lip to stop herself from crying. How her life had turned into a heap of rubbish in the space of barely twenty four hours. She sniffed back her tears and braced herself for the worse. Sophia saw the pain mixed with anger in Amaya's eyes and gently pulled her into a hug. Amaya stood unmoving, her blue eyes distant. Sophia saw her unresponsiveness and slowly broke the hug. "Let's go inside" She beckoned the already crying Amaya. They walked into the room and Amaya dropped to the floor, crying her heart out. She wished she hadn't gone back home, she wished she had stayed back at the library. "He still would have found you. Didn't you notice that he seemed to know everything about you?" her inner voice said. "That was true", she thought, "he still would have located her". She sighed and buried her face in her palms. Sophia saw her emotionally down cast

Chapter: CHAPTER 005Amaya walked slowly and quietly behind the mean looking lady. She didn't have a single smile on her somehow wrinkled face,and she walked with the gait of an angry man. They kept walking and taking bends,until they arrived at another different building in the villa. This one was quite smaller compared to the mansion, but was far more luxurious. Everything screamed wealth and power.The guards at the gate stood professionally and at alert, with their guns at the ready."Where was this mean looking woman taking her to?" Amaya wondered,but kept following like a lamb being led to be slaughtered."You better walk faster if you don't want to be the scapegoat this morning" the woman's cold voice rang out.Amaya immediately quickened her pace,and was almost running after her. After a few more minutes of turning and taking the next bend, they arrived in front of a huge metallic gold door.The lady knocked and a guy who looked like one of the bodyguards at the gate came out."The Don asked me t

Chapter: CHAPTER 004BACK TO PRESENT...... Amaya's whole body shook,as she cried bitterly. She had lost her family in the twinkle of an eye,and she was yet to believe it. "How could a human being be that heartless to kill people without remorse? How could a human being be that beastly as to kill little children without second thoughts? Innocent children who haven't done any wrong." Amaya wondered. "Please forgive me Ethan and Norah" she said inwardly and sniffed. "I promised to always protect you both, but I couldn't even lift a finger. I watched you both die and I couldn't save you". She cursed herself mentally. She was still lost in thought when a hand tapped her shoulder. She flinched in shock and almost reacted with a punch. She turned swiftly to see a girl who looked her age, standing behind her and wearing what looked like a maid's uniform. The girl was pretty,with big brown eyes,an oval face, small red lips and a slim figure. Amaya looked at her open-mouthed for almost a minute before t
