Ella cracked open her eyes and winced at the pounding in her head. She waited for the pain to subside then shook the grogginess she feels and looked around her. She was in a small room with nothing much in it except an old cushion and the rickety chair she was tied up in. Ella struggled to free herself but after a while realised it was futile, she needed her energy for when she would make an escape. She tried to remember what happened; she'd just gotten out of the house when someone jumped her suddenly and covered her nose with a white cloth a sickly sweet smell enveloped her and then black. How many times has she been kidnapped in less than a year? Ella thought miserably who could it be this time?Her question was answered when a tall man entered the room followed by a slender woman who looked vaguely familiar...of course! Ella thought as recognition slammed into her."Are you sure no one saw her up here?" she asked."I'm sure." the man replied."You may g
"Shh, everything is okay now love. You're safe." Dylan cooed soothingly. After she calmed down he carried her out to the waiting car and let the police do their job. Ella had no idea how they were able to find her so fast and she wasn't interested in the details right now only the fact that they'd found her just in time. Ella buried her face in Dylan’s shoulders and tuned out everything else. "Are you sure you're okay?" Dylan asked for what seemed like the fifth time that night. Apart from the exhaustion she'd felt before Ella had no physical injuries to worry about thank God for that."I'm okay now that I’m with you and surrounded by everyone I love." Ella smiled up at him.She'd come home to hugs and lots of mushy feelings and it felt so good. Ella looked around at everyone present there and knew without a doubt that she was loved. Tears stung her eyes."I was so scared I thought I'd never see you all again. You should've seen how she pointed tha
EPILOGUE Dominic ran agitated fingers through his hair as he paced about the room. All the joy and happiness out there was making him sick because he knew he'd never be at peace until he was able to come clean and tell Lani the whole truth. "Then what's stopping you?" Dominic turned in surprise to find Bryan at the doorway and he realised he must’ve been thinking out loud."You know what's stopping me.""You're just afraid." Bryan told him pointedly."Of course I’m afraid! What do you think Lani would think of me when she finds out that I wooed and pursued purposefully just to ruin her life the same way her mother ruined mine?"A loud gasp filled the room and Dominic was faced with the hard truth of what he didn't want to happen. Lani was standing there, the look of horror on her face and her eyes flashed with such hatred Dominic had never seen."Lani..." he called brokenly.Unable to look at him for another second, Lani turned and fled from there."
Dominic couldn’t remember how often he had played the game ‘catch me’ when he was younger, but one thing he was sure was that he didn’t like being caught. He didn’t like it then and he definitely didn’t like it now. He hated what a certain brunette was doing to him. He didn’t want to feel or care or show that anything mattered, but It was just one night and her innocence changed his views and dominated his mind, now he couldn’t look at her without conjuring up the image of her face tainted with colour against his pillow and how her dark hair splayed around her. He couldn’t forget how extremely exquisite she had looked with her eyes shut as she sighed his name. Her skin as soft as silk he couldn’t forget the feel and he could think of nothing right now but to have her in his bed again naked beneath him and all his. He felt a st

CHAPTER THREEWhat Kate did not expect the next afternoon was to find Frank Edward at her door."I just wanted to apologise about last night, I admit I was extremely rude. Am grateful to you for helping my son."Kate mildly rolled her eyes and folded her arms across her ample bosom, it was a gesture she realised didn't go unnoticed by the man. She thought about it for a moment before concluding, "Apology accepted. Good day Mr Frank Edward." She was about to shut the door in his face."I was hoping that you could join me for lunch.""No I’m afraid I have other plans." which includes staying in my room for the rest of the day away from you."Okay.
