I hop out of bed.

I strike the curtains open and stand beside the window.

What! Ramon is outside my house?

He is seated on top of his car, looking up at me with a wide grin across his face. His white teeth are gleaming brilliantly in the dark. He signals for me to go down.

Jeez! I'm in my pajamas! Should I change? No! He already saw you in pajamas. What will he think when he sees you changed into some fancy clothes? That you're Sooooo crazy about him? No way! I'm not changing!

On opening the door, he is already standing at the doorstep. He has his white shirt untucked and the striped silk tie hanging loosely on his neck.

Both his hands are hidden behind his back. He's hiding something and he has that mischievous smile on his face.

"What are you doing at my house past midnight?" I ask sourly.

He lifts his hand and signals, "

    My eyes flutter open.My eye sight is blur and I can't figure out where I am. The sound of monitors beeping gives me a hint of where.A hospital.My eyesight is now vivid. I can see a man with broad arms holding my hand, rubbing the back of it gently.Ramon.He lets out a sigh of relief, joy flickering in his eyes."Hey," he says gently. "How are you feeling?""Uhhh..." I mumble with a groggy voice as I sit up. "Better. What happened?"All I remember is seeing my dad lying in a pool of blood before my mind went blank then total darkness followed."You had a psychogenic seizure," he explains. "The doctor said you suffered a panic attack that led to seizure."This has happened to me before... Some time last year... Oxford University faced a calamit

    I just had lunch.I was in deep thought and anxious the whole time. A couple of minutes from now, I'll find out the truth. I'll know who killed my dad and send the motherfucker straight to jail. Or maybe I might kill him and get away with the murder. He deserves to die.I hear a knock on the door.My secretary glides into my office holding a bouquet of red roses. She gives them to me with a sweet smile."Someone sent them.""Who?" I ask, confused."I don't know.""Thank you."She leaves my office.The red roses are nicely-scented and smell so fresh. I quickly take the card inside and read it.Thinking about you, Ramon.Ugh!He should be sending flowers to precious Marisa not me.I take my phone and text Ramon:Me

    Knock!Knock!Knock!I open the door angrily.It's Andrew.I cross my arms against my chest and stare at him blankly."What?"Andrew looks restless and anxious, scratching his head."Mila... What's this I'm hearing you threw your mom in jail for killing your dad?"I smirk. "She should be lucky I didn't burn her house to the ground.""Mila that's your mom-""And she killed my dad!" I scream."You don't know that."I snicker. "Wow. So you think I can just wake up one day and throw my mom in jail without proof? I'm smarter than that, Andrew. I had a PI who has solid evidence that my mom killed my dad with her little boyfriend?"He huffs. "She's still your mother, Mila. And you

    I'm driving from work.I had a long sad day at work today.The whole mom-saga is stuck on my mind like a pest. It's still unbelievably horrific that she is dad's killer.I just drove past a bar. For a moment there, I felt like stopping by and having a couple of drinks...Maybe a couple of drinks could drown this... This sadness... But then I recalled all those days and nights in the rehab. The loneliness. The pathetic food. The confiscated rooms. The place was like hell... I would NEVER want to go back to that fucking place. Plus, I have to be strong and stable more than ever now that I have a million-dollar company to run.I drive through the gravel driveway to my parking lot.I am floating to my house when my phone suddenly rings in my bag.Uncle...I quickly pick up

    I can feel hands on my head.Stroking back my hair gently... Smoothly..."Ramon?" I moan as I turn on the other side of the bed.My eyes open halfway. They almost pop out of their sockets when I notice it's a stranger, stroking back my hair.A little bald girl.I quickly sit up and look around the room in puzzlement. It's a spacious well-furnished room with a massive four - poster bed filled with pillows and huge windows that let bouts of light inside.Where am I? How did I get here? The only thing I remember about last night is finding out the two snakes betrayed me and finding Ramon waiting for me at my place. That's the last thing I remember. So, how did I get here! Was I kidnapped?I look at the cute little girl. She's still stroking my hair in admiration."You look like the sleeping princess Aurora when

    I turn on the other side of the bed and my body presses on a rock. A hard rock. I open my eyes halfway and see Ramon's stiff sexy body lying next to me.He's sleeping so beautifully... So peacefully... So soundly... Like a little baby boy.I observe his perfect face. His bushy eyebrows. His caramel smooth skin. His dark thick silken lashes. His perfect nose. Then his lips... Pink full lips that tempt me to brush mine past them and just get a little taste of them. I find myself circling my fingers around his face when he groans my name,"Camilla."I quickly draw back my hand. I'm sure he felt my fingers touring round his face. I expect his eyes to fly open and look at me like I'm some kind of creep but no... The guy turns on the other side of the bed and guess what?He starts snoring!!!!Ugh!Wait, did he just call

    The horse gallops in the green fields.Faster and faster.Ramon is sitting behind me.His grip on my waist gets tighter and tighter.He stops the horse and hops off its back. I'm still on top of the horse, waiting for him to help me climb off.He looks at me ridiculously. "You're seriously not waiting for me to carry you off, are you?"He takes off his leather jacket and spreads it on the grass. He obviously took it off to show off his broad chest and muscular biceps.And I will be lying if I say I'm not enjoying the view. I'm literally drooling on the inside.He looks at me and groans. "Ugh! Fine!"He carries me off the horse's back. "The only reason I'm doing this is because you look like a fucking goddess in that dress..."

    I stand in the shower, letting the water drip down from my hair all the way down to my feet.I sob quietly, not wanting to wake Ramon. This is all too unbearable but I hope, slightly hope, that maybe this water can wash away my tears and drown my sorrows.My once upon a time best friend is dead. My once upon a time boyfriend is dead. The kid they were both expecting is also gone. I know what they did to me was wrong and I still hate them for it but I didn't want them to vanish from the face of the earth. To die in a fire? What an excruciating way to die. I wouldn't wish that on even my worst enemy.And now the police are looking for me for something I didn't do in the first place. Oh my God! Riana and Karla must be thinking I did it. I'm sure that the whole of Kingswood is buzzing about the story now and they think am the criminal because I ran away.How!

    RAMON I am sitting on the small bed, a paper on my lap and a pen in my hand.I am writing a letter to her...She is not going to write me back. She has never once written back after the hundreds of letters I have sent her over the past six months.But I do not write to get a reply.I write for her to know I still care about her and I think about her...And I still love her...Maybe she will never give me a chance.

    "This dumb brother of mine keeps calling!"Andrew grumbles as he looks at his phone.He stands from the chair and presses his phone to his ear."Rupert? Can you stop calling! I am busy!" he roars as he storms out of the room, yelling.I am still in shock.Andrew has been the mastermind all this time?I never even once suspected him.Ever!From what I have gathered since yesterday, Andrew is the head of the Relliks Company. An organization I thought was for criminal investigation. But as the FBI Agent said, it is more than that.Because he found out the truth, Bridget murdered him. It is a company where a client orders for a particular person to be killed and their property to be snatched.And the reason these clients choose this organization is because Relliks knows how to cover th

    "Dear Little princess."My uncle enters the room holding a briefcase.Flex, Bridget and some six other men lurk behind him.He turns and looks at the pack sternly."I need to be left alone."Bridget narrows her eyes at him. "But-""It is not a request Banks!" he says harshly.She rolls her eyes and they all leave the room.Uncle Terrence struts towards me and grabs a chair to sit directly opposite to me. He puts the black briefcase on his lap.He grins at me evilly and my whole body is aching to pounce on him like a beast and strangle him to death.He is a monster."Sorry for dragging you into this kind of mess darling."But there is not even a slight tone of remorse when he says that.I notice that he is completely ignoring Ramon,

    Ramon is tied to the chairRight next to me.It is kind of a relief now, not having to watch him hanging loosely on the ceiling.I know I should not feel even a tinge of sympathy towards him but to be honest, It was painful to watch him hanging loosely on the ceiling like some animal about to be slaughtered.Flex will not admit it, but he also felt some kind of sympathy for Ramon and decided to tie him up on the chair with the help of other six men, wearing "Relliks" badges.It is so surprising that this Relliks thing has a whole team working for them and that's scary. Scary because it will not be easy at all to escape and run for my life.This is how I'm going to die...The mere thought of that sends a shiver down my spine...Mr. Davis, the deceased FBI agent was right.Relliks is more than just a crime investigatio

I guess I passed out then and I don't remember one thing that has happened to us since.Oh my God!Where did they take Ramon?My heart is pounding hard against my chest, trying to free myself from all these ropes that bound me."Camilla."It is Ramon.He is here with me.But I can NOT see him.Ugh!"Relax baby.

    I wake up in a strange small room.Where the hell am I?Did I sleep in this room? Who brought me here? Oh my God! Did my mom manage to kidnap me?It is supposed to be my wedding day today! Why the hell am I here?I jump from the bed and bolt to the door. I grip the doorknob but it seems the room has been locked from the outside.I suddenly start to shiver, every nerve giving off panic alarms. This is not good. Not good at all.I rush to the window, hoping for it to be my means of escape but No. The windows are tightly locked.

    Ramon and I are woken up by the loud banging on the door.He is the first to jump out of the bed and puts on a pair of pants. I follow behind quickly, wearing his huge grey t-shirt.He first peeps in the hole on the door, before opening the door.He sighs then opens the door.The minute the door swings open, Rupert pounces on Ramon, punching him on the cheek.He hits him so hard that he starts to choke blood. I let out ear-splitting screams but the men are still on each other like cats. At first, Ramon wasn't beating him up. But now that Rupert can't seem to let him go, he is also throwing punches and his nose is bleeding so bad.I keep screaming for them to stop but Rupert pins Ramon on the floor and hits his head countless times against the ground. He rolls over and now it's Rupert that's beneath him.Ramon's eyes are dark. Dark with rage. I almost
