Grace's POV The first thing that invaded my line of sight as I opened my eyes was the white walls that surrounded me. Then I noticed that I was immobile, my limbs were impossible to move.A heart monitor was beeping beside me and it's really disturbing.Where am I? How did I get here? I didn't have enough time to brainstorm on my current situation as the door opens gently. I became slightly relieved as Lisa and Steph walked.But something was odd as they stood feet away from me like I have a plague or something. "why are you guys standing over there?""And why is Steph looking like she is about to cry? I asked, my voice coming out raspy and stiff."Can you get me some water?" I asked directly at Lisa. I have a lot of questions but I think I need water first. "How did I end up fucked up like this?""My whole body feels like it got chewed on by a crocodile" I said rapidly after I got my throat moisturized."You had an accident, and you end up like this" Lisa answered me plainl

Receiving orders from her wasn't anything unusual to them but seeing her this scared is a sight to behold."If you guys get caught, don't you dare mention my name. Okay? She threatened them for the umpteenth time on the same night.Despite her strong and bold facade she was a jittery mess as she paced the extravagantly furnished living room in her heels.The fear of being caught is crippling her but she has no regrets.A loud bang sounded on the door startling her. "wait! I will check who is there" she stopped one of her underlings that was about to open the door. "who is it?" she called out but no one answered, she got the shock of her life as her eyes landed on the person before her. She breathed out in relief but a headache started forming in place of her fear. "what are you doing here?" she asked in a hushed voice scared someone will hear them. With no intention to reply the uninvited guest stumbled into the room scarcely dressed and dirty. Hungry and drained he fell to the g

I have never been this bored in my entire life lying down on a hospital bed is more draining than running marathons. I just feel naturally weak and tired despite being on a bed. Time passes by slowly and a day feels like a week.I can't believe I have been here for just a week when it feels like a year. My wounds are healing fast also which leaves me terrified because I have to start my physiotherapy today and I'm not looking forward to that but I have to if I ever want to walk again. A part of me is looking forward to it because I will get to see him again today. He said he will here to accompany me and I can't bring myself to stop thinking about him. Despite my confusions and questions about everything because there are some gaps that don't fit with how my life is supposed to be but I can't help but daydream about the gorgeous man.

Grace's POV I could barely sleep a wink since I received that bunch of strange roses last night. My worst nightmare is back again, I never imagined this walking time bomb would ever be able to get out of the jail but I guess I was wrong. That horrible jerk is the reason why I'm living like this today. He threw my once happy family into a sea of despair and he is still not satisfied. "What!" I shrieked at Hannah as she tapped me out of my thoughts. I have been snappy and irritated today. "I'm sorry for disturbing you but the phone you ordered is ready," she replied, surprised by my attitude. Apparently I lost my phone during the accident and I had to ask for another one, I'm glad it's here because I have been wanting to talk to mom for a week now. She will be worried if she doesn't hear from me for so long. After waiting for eternity the call finally got through but I got disappointed when it wasn't her voice that sounded from the other end. "She can't speak with you right no

Grace's POV Finally I'm out of this damn hospital, even if I can't walk yet it is still preferably that I'm not lying on a bed every hour of the day. It has been three long months, I'm happy I'm going home but I could hardly register what was happening around me as my mind wandered around about that walking ticking time bomb. No day has passed without him giving me a bunch of that annoying flower. I was pushed to by one of Mr Hyde's men because he had to discuss some things with the doctor. My wandering mind wouldn't let me be as my eyes travel to a black car parked not far from us with a window rolled down. Out of the corner of my eyes I saw a hand waving but I pretended not to see it. That jerk! The heavens decided to have mercy on me as Mr Hyde joined us moments later. "Start the car" was all I heard that drove me out of my thoughts. "what are you looking at?" Mr Hyde's hot breath fanned my cheek as he looked outside the window curiously in search of my center of attention
A moment in time Chapter sixteen
Grace's POV My mind was like a hurricane with loads of thoughts running in it. On one hand I'm happy that I'm finally out of the hospital and on the other hand I'm being hated by someone I barely know. I almost forgot!, the jerk with the flowers is also out there. "What are you thinking about?" I was too engrossed in my thoughts that I didn't hear Mr Hyde walked in."nothing" I replied trying to assemble my thoughts.An aroma invaded my nostrils before I could see the source. "That's hard to believe," he said gently, dropping the tray of mouth watering serving of food on the table beside me. I was stuck in that hospital for too long that I now end up drooping at the sight of food. I can't remember the last time I had a meal that I wanted not because I was made to eat it. I smiled thankfully at him and started eating with no care in the world. I almost moan at the rich taste of the steak on my tongue. It's been a freaking long time!I felt slightly embarrassed knowing that Mr

Gideon's POV "We weren't like this before"."Things became messed up because of her and even if you deny it, I'm positive she is cause for all of this". Vivian voice reverberates in the silent room. I'm honestly surprised by her sudden outburst, she has been this annoying recently and she is starting to irk me. "if you don't release them I also won't stop getting under your skin" she continues as she closes the distance between us. Her green eyes stared back at me with determination.I have known her for a long time and I'm still shocked that she has this side of her hidden all this while."Are you daring me?" I suddenly feel like laughing because of her futile attempt to intimidate me. "That is a game you will never win". I said finding her extremely funny. "Gideon""I'm doing all this because I still love you and I want us to get back together" she said suddenly after realizing that her plan has gone south. "I feel really bad seeing both of you together and I got overwhelmed

Grace's POV I like it when you smile" he said while taking my hands in his. I focus on his face and decided to indulge myself despite my anger at him. I don't know when or how but unintentionally I have come to care for this man that I bearly know. "Why are you mad at me?" he asked suddenly and I have nothing to say. I will rather die than confess my feelings to him. "I'm mad at you because you hit me with the door" I replied while glaring at him trying to hide my emotions. "oh!, I'm sorry. Let me rub it.""where did I hit" he asked and I could almost hear him chuckle. "Here" I replied pointing to where the door hit me. I barely feel the pain when the door hit me but call me dramatic. He gently rubs on the spot and kiss it. "I'm not a kid" I said feeling offended by the peck. "You do that to a kid not a grown ass woman like me" I said to his blank face. "okay" he replied while staring intently at me. He inched closer to me and our lips met.I welcome the kiss eagerly,

Grace's POV I'm quite sure some drivers threw curses at me because of my murderous driving, I just couldn't keep my calm. A couple of days felt like a month, Mr Hyde is back from his trip. He was supposed to be back tomorrow but somehow he is back earlier and for which I am very happy. In no time his house came into and I didn't even bother to park the car properly before rushing into the house. A maid told me he is in his study, and that is quite unusual because he is still working instead of resting. I stopped in front of study and waited a few minutes before knocking, my hand stopped mid air when I heard a familiar voice coming from inside. I'm not supposed to be eavesdropping on the conversation but my curiosity got the best of me. I wasn't hearing clearly and to satisfy my curiosity I put my ear close to the door, still nothing. I ended up resting on the door trying to hear them. Unexpectedly the door opened suddenly and I wished the ground would swallow me whole. "What

Grace's POVThe sleeping face belonged to Lisa and I felt guilty for doing that to her, she looked around frantically trying to figure out what went wrong."What is it?" she asked puzzled."Nothing" I replied in a small voice.The floating cloud turned out to be a large bed, I was a little disappointed when I realized the beautiful beach was just a dream."Then why did you scream like there's a snake in the room?" She asked, glaring at me."I was only startled waking up to your sleeping face dumbass" I replied glaring back at her."I have missed you terribly" she said suddenly chuckling at the choice of words.

Gideon's POVI was so impatient but had to let police do things they are way. After they let out another warning they proceeds to open the door.They were still short of the door when gunshots rang from inside the house , immediately one of the policemen in front of me went down in a soundless heap. Few bullets flew past me and I went down on my stomach with every man still standing, painful grunts beside me drew my attention to see Daniel writhing in pain.Blood was dripping out of his left shoulders."Daniel! Daniel!" I called out but he didn't respond.

Grace's POVWith more grunts and several shoves at the door it finally opens, I struggled to sit up but she helped me. It was currently dark in the whole house with the minimum source of lighting coming from the window in their room. I was amazed at how she was able to help me rest on the wall. With no questions she went off to set the other girl free making me wonder what she was planning on doing before or was my presence the breakthrough for that.She was pretty tall with a sturdy build, it makes sense that she was able to break the door. But the other girl was in a worse condition than her, she couldn't stand on her own. It tore my heart to pieces to see writhe in pain as she was guided out the room.

"Those fucking bastards" he cussed silently while fidgeting with the car keys trying to turn it on as fast as possible. He noticed something was wrong after exiting Vivian's house and he saw a car following him, he wasn't thinking much about it until it kept appearing out of nowhere. For a fact that it wasn't an outstanding car made him realize they meant business. He tried running from them an uncountable number of times but it wasn't working and they would appear out of nowhere like they had a tracker on him. He had checked himself earlier on to be sure they hadn't put a bug on him.The sky was beginning to darken and he had one more stop to make before heading home. Originally his days were never occupied but he kept driving around since morning in an attempt to throw them off. After exiting the convenience store he was surprised not to see them from the corner of his eyes like
A moment in time Chapter twenty six
Grace's POV I'm quite surprised in myself because of how far I had gone from the bed, when I thought of this idea it was just a fleeting idea that I never thought would be fruitful. I had only walked a few feets from the bed and it felt like a mile. My heart was beating fast against my rib cage, I'm more scared of him coming back and finding me like this than falling face flat on the floor. A few steps more and I am at the door breathing heavily, sweat made my clothes stick to my skin like jelly fish. Fear envelope when I realised the door might be locked but with shaky hands I reached for it and to my surprise it wasn't. I was too happy and forgot to not to let go of the wall, I rested all my weight on the door and once I opened it I barrelled out of the room falling face first to the ground. The pains and shock of the cold hard floor almost knocked the wind out of me, I can swear I saw stars. I didn't want to make any noise so I bit my lips to keep me from screaming. My nose f
