Santiago"She has come around," Doctor Jones announced. With my chest thumping loudly, I stopped pacing the terrace. I tore into my private ward where Tiffany was being treated and my apprehension fizzled away.She was sitting up on the couch with her eyes wide open. The infusion fixed to her arm was still running dropwise into her veins.Her eyes bulged, she blinked and sobbed as she saw me.I swallowed the lump in my throat and walked towards her. She lifted herself a little and clutched my shirt with her free hand, dragging me closer. "Dad, dad, It was Andro, he… he…" she swallowed hard trying to conjure words. Anger burned inside of me and I balled my fists as I hovered over her."Angel, do not panic, dad got you covered… it's over now. All you need is just to relax," I muttered as calmly as I could."Bianca! Where is she? Did he harm her too?" She lifted her head, looking straight into my eyes, fear written all over her face.There she goes… asking about Bianca again. I gritted
SantiagoA devilish laughter escaped my lips as I smiled at the brutality that I was about to unleash.Seeing the bastard that took Tiffany, my wolf pranced in my head. He was enraged and I could feel it in my bones. I could feel his full essence as I moved towards Andro.“Wake him up! now!” I roared.Immediately, two of my men got into action.Seconds rolled into minutes as they continued to waterboard Andro, yet the idiot didn’t move nor budge.My eyes darted around. Knives, axes, and picannas were cluttered everywhere. As I reached for a picanna, my men paved the way. I plugged the picanna straight into the deep cut on Andro's neck, the idiot oscillated and jolted to life. He grunted in pain and tried to sit up but he was restricted by the chains.I set my gaze until he finally recovered and his gaze met my fiery ones. Seeing me, he shuddered, making his chains rustle. He looked around and I saw the glint in his eyes when he recognized where he was.Knowing that there was no salva
SantiagoThe intent to kill burned in my head as I slung back into my car. I had just killed off a traitor but a fresh hunger to kill was birthed inside of me.I drummed my fingers on the steering wheel as I sped up. If what Andro said about Bianca was true, I would kill her and her father in the most brutal way.My car came to a screeching halt in front of the office and I strutted out, drenched in the stench of blood. Guards scampered out of the way as I stumbled into the elevator.Once in my office, I found the footage I requested on the table and I summoned a few people for questioning before I escaped into the shower. I washed every part of my skin. I washed off every grit and the bastard's blood, I was as white as snow.When I returned to my office, those whom I had summoned were already waiting.With my gun perched in my hand, I started with Darko."In a few words, explain Bianca's involvement in Tiffany's kidnap."Darko blinked hard and I corked my gun. I was in no mood for g
BiancaI woke up feeling sore to the bones. The cut on my leg also felt sore, making me feel sickly.Memories of the previous day came in flashes and I shut my eyes like I could shut the horrible images out of my head.Above all, I was thankful that Tiffany was rescued. Andro's false confession popped up in my head and I shivered. I still did not know how Santiago took it and what he did to me.He came to my room last night and … and…My stomach grumbled, interrupting my thoughts. I had not eaten since I had the breakfast that Darko packed for me the previous day. I was famished and my hunger surged up like a cat willing to eat an elephant.I yawned earnestly wondering when breakfast would come. Perhaps I was grounded and starvation was the begining of my torture.Just then, Milla and her maids walked in gracefully, bowing in greetings. I ignored them and got down from the bed. I felt rotten and didn't want to talk to anyone, so I remained mute and they worked on me in silence.The ma
Bianca I dragged my rigid legs until I was out of the hall. The least I expected was to see Darko right behind me, what a dedicated watchdog he was.The guard who came to call me matched down between rows of cars and until we were standing in front of a jeep. I didn't know the name of the model as I had never seen it before.One of the doors opened up and the guard showed me in. My eyes widened as I saw Santiago gracefully seated. I was supposed to sit right beside him.I shut my eyes as I remembered the day he threw me out of the car. This isn't about seeing Tiffany! He wants to get rid of me! I said in my head as I sat closer to my side of the door. I was as far away as I could."Ahaa!!!" I flinched as he stuck out his hand. But he didn't mind me. He closed the door tightly and pressed some buttons. I just bowed my head and shivered like a chicken drenched in water.The engine came alive and the ride began. Throughout the ride, San set his face straight and said nothing to me. Whi
SantiagoWhilst I waited, Tiffany was flamboyantly dressed and helped into the wheelchair. One of the maids stepped forward to wheel her out but Tiffany wouldn't have it."Stop!" She yelled. The maid flinched and stepped back immediately.With a subtle smile, Tiffany turned around and led me on, "Please Bianca, can I have this honour?"I couldn't hold back, I burst into laughter and shook my head. "You sure know how to play your games." I set the confusion in my head at bay and took my place behind her. Another guard was ready to have us outside. He led the way and soon we were out of the complex building.My gaze scanned the lot and it fell on Darko. Although he said nothing, his eyes said it all. I could see the relief in his eyes.The guards pulled out the ramp in Santiago's car and fixed Tiffany into the car. The car has a space for a wheelchair and she was placed right there, next to her father.I wrung my palms together at the sight. It was a beautiful sight. Tiffany was loqua
BiancaSantiago finished his dishes gracefully and the chef came to clear the table. Tiffany was still not back and I couldn't help but wonder if she left on purpose or not.The loud silence became awkward and the only distraction before me was my unfinished meal. My hand felt like steel as I brought it up to pick up my spoon."Hmm…mm," Santiago suddenly cleared his throat, startling me. I jumped to my feet, shaking like a reed. With a bemused smirk, he stared at me. A lopsided grin fell out of his face and he looked at me like I was a fool. I almost ran out, but I shut out the idea. I swallowed hard and dropped back to my seat. My gaze fixed at the door, earnestly praying for Tiffany's return.Santiago had relaxed into his seat. His legs were crossed and he looked keenly at me, not missing any of my actions and reactions. I couldn tell that he was having the fun of his life seeing me miserable.Slowly I began to munch on my food again under his scrutiny."What audacity," he said i
BiancaIt was a very cold night, yet I remained unclad. I curled up like a pup on my bed not knowing what awaited me.Wearily, I reminisce on what happened during the day. The drama that unfolded at the dining hall, the one at Tiffany's villa and how Santiago interrogated me at the diner."... If you give me any reason to doubt you in the future, you will end up dead… alongside your father. I don't let traitors live."Santiago's words flowed back into my head. It sounded like a threat. In fact it was supposed to be a threat, but I didn't know why it sounded like an assurance to me. For now, I am cleared and that's all that mattered.After Santiago left the diner, Tiffany didn't show up either. It was Darko who came in and drove me back to the mansion. I couldn't help but think that Tiffany's exit was planned from the get to go. "I will spank her for deceiving me. What a conniving little brat!"My door suddenly burst open and I jerked up like a feather from the bed.I couldn't believe
