Rachel's POV

I heard the loud muffling and shuffling of objects waking me up from my sleep. Then followed by the shifting of the large curtains which made way for light to enter into the room.

Someone was arranging the room, a young maid.

How did I get here?

I shook my head refusing to allow the memories of what happened yesterday come back to me fully to taunt me. I have a whole day to be taunted by them, but most definitely not now. I pulled the bedsheet over my head, blocking the soft sounds and the light so I could sleep longer.

" Ms Rachel, are you awake?" I heard the maid who was arranging the room ask as she walked towards me.

I was about to answer when I felt the pang of an headache. I winced in pain under the sheets.

"Ms Rachel... Ms Rachel..." The maid continued to call.

I had clench my teeth to withstand the pain.

"Yes". I replied but it came out more of a whisper.

Something was wrong with my throat. It felt rather dry and hoarse.

I coughed to clear my throat.

    Rachel's POV" What happened in that house Rachel, tell me!"I flinched at how loud Ethan's voice sounded. He was so close to me causing his voice to be more powerful and loud than normal. There was alot of consequences if she revealed the truth to him, but he didn't look like he was going to take no for an answer. " I... Lana is... " I darted my eyes everywhere looking away from his piercing gaze. But then I stopped. A thought suddenly came to me. It was my family. I didn't have to inform him about anything. With that thought in mind, I pursed my lips and glared at him." It's not your business"."Wha... What do you mean its not my business? " Ethan's face slowly became rigid. He brought his face closer to me, causing me to backup. " I... Er... I mean exactly what I said. ". My back touched the headboard with a slight sound.I couldn't move anymore, but Ethan's face kept coming closer.The he raised his hand to my face. I shut my eyes ever so tightly to brace myself for the sla

    Rachel's POV Then the next thing I heard was the clacking of her heels which began to disappear. Few seconds later, I was sure she had left the room leaving me and Ethan... Alone. This conversation would be unavoidable. It would be the least I could do after all the help he had rendered me starting from two nights ago when I met him. I removed the blanket from my face, staring directly at him."It was my grandfather... I tried to hit..well scratch Lana but he stopped me, and then slapped me". "Why was Lana there, I thought it was your family meeting?" Ethan asked. I snorted. "Apparently, Lana's family. Much more that me". Ethan had a confused look on his face, almost how I looked when I found out. " Lana is parents real daughter. I was just their substitute, they found out a few days ago". "I'm sorry". Ethan said and I smiled. I was much calmer now, and I could now she the benefits of that unfortunate news. "It's fine... Now I can see how not bad that sounds. Now they woul

" I'm good, really. In fact that's one of the reasons I'm calling you. I need you to do something for me". I said my voice turning serious. "Anything, just name it" " Do you know if there are any upcoming film auditions? I want to go back to acting". The next thing I heard was a delighted scream from Marina. I had to move the phone further away from my face to protect my ear drums. "I can't believe your finally going back to acting... You know what, yes! There are upcoming auctions, and I can bet they love for you to show up". "Then it's settled. Send the address, time and place to this number. We'll met up there and catch up". "That we most definitely would do. I need to hear every about your divorce... That man had to be crazy for letting you go". "Ok, bye". I ended the call. That was Marin

    Rachel's POVI arrived at the location I was meant to meet Marina. I had called her last night to give her my new number and to tell her that I was ready to begin acting again. She suggested this restaurant and here I was. In a fancy restaurant, surrounded by fancy people. I looked around looking for Marina in the crowd. She said she was going to be seated not to far from the door, where the hell is she?I looked a little to the left before I saw someone waving her hands at me. "Over here". Marina said with a smile when I caught her eyes. I walked over there, the intense gaze of onlookers who were watching my every move. I held my head up high despite their disapproving gaze or was it shock... I couldn't tell. I was wearing black joggers and a white crop top, something I found in the walk-in closet in my room. How Ethan knew my size... I wasn't sure. But I decided not to think about it as I wore it here. Now I wasn't too sure wearing casual clothes to such a fancy restaurant wa

Snow Fall Love... My eyes widened as it dawned on me what the movie was. It was the new upcoming movie that got everyone on edge." Are you serious?" I asked in a pleasant surprise. Marina nodded her head with a smile. " The female lead have been chosen, and so as the first supporting actress, but you can apply for the third supporting actress... I'm sure you'll get the part if you auditioned for it". My lips stretched into a wide smile. " Thank you so much Marina". "It's alright. What are friends for". Marina shrugged. Why the hell did I ever listen to David when he said Marina was a bad person? Why didn't I listen to Marina when she said David was not the right person for me?A lot of why's ran through my mind as I stared at Marina. " Chel... Chelle... Rachel!" I heard my named being yell

    Rachel's POV As I waited my turn, I watched as the others rehearsed their lines with one another. Some were good, I would admit, while the others... I can shake my head at their performance. I suddenly felt pressed and stood up to use the restroom. " Where is it?" I looked around for a while before turning another corner. Yep, I was lost. Everywhere looked alike to me. Where the fuck is the restroom. " Are you perhaps lost?" A manly voice asked me from behind. I turned my body sharply to put a face to the voice. My eyes widened as I was taken aback by his appearance. He was a handsome man dressed causally in a white hoodie and black pants. There was an amused smirk on his perfectly sculptured face. His dark blue eyes staring intensely at me. What a beauty...I opened my mouth to speak but no words came out. "Ms... Are you okay?" The amusement on his face changed to worry as he asked me. What is wrong with you Rachel, I shook my head to get back to my senses. "I'm.. I'm fi

The person said surprisedly. Who the hell. I raised my head to see who it was. Behold, it was Lana. Mother fucking freaking Lana!What was she doing here?" What are you doing here?" She asked the question in my mind to me. She was wearing glamorous clothes and carrying an expensive purse... She had started acting the part of an Andrew already. Two ladies were by her side, both crossed their hands and faced me angrily. " You know, I could ask you the exact same thing. " Or could it be...A thought came to my head. Marina said that the first and second lead actress were taken already, since Olivia is the first... Could Lana possibly be the second?God please no..." No... This is my place of work... I should be the one asking you what you're doing here". Shit! I'm right. Deep bre

    "Where were you!" Ethan's loud voice sounded in my ears the moment I stepped into living room.What is his problem? I flinched at the loudness of his voice. " Somewhere..."He raised on his brows. " I'm being serious! I came back home early and you were no where to be found". Was he worried about me?I felt a smile creeping on my cheeks. I coughed awkwardly to dismiss it. " I just went out to visit a friend". "A friend?" Ethan repeated his tone showing that he didn't believe me. Does he think Lana is the only friend I have? I rolled my eyes before taking my seat on one of the three seater chairs. I bent down to remove my shoes. " Marina... I went to visit Marina. You remember her right, the girl that..." I paused looking at Ethan. He had his hands crossed on his chest and one eyebrow raised up waiting for me to continue my explanation. The way he crossed his arms, made the muscles in his arm pop. He is so muscular and... No... No... I shook my head. I shouldn't be thinking o

    Rachel's POV No words could explain how I was feeling right now, no words. After the kiss in the living room, I couldn't hold it any longer so I dragged Ethan up to my room, leaving the rest of my family members downstairs. We had a night... Well, morning of passion, and for the first time in a long time, I was felt at peace. Ethan and I lay on my bed, our bare bodies snuggled close to each other. "I never knew you were still a virgin." Ethan said calmly, his large hands stroking my long blonde hair. My lips pulled in a smile and I shrugged slightly. "There are still somethings you don't know about me". Ethan looked so shocked when he found out as if he had expected something different, while I was also shocked for another reason... Ethan was freaking good in bed! He had told me once before that he never had a girlfriend, so I thought I would be the one to lead since I had more experience. My lower body was a virgin but that didn't mean my mind or some parts of my body were

    Rachel's POV As I shut my eyes, the sounds of the wind blowing on the windpipes I placed at the corner of my window became more prominent, the sound of the road, which was meters from here, but I could still here it. My chest heaved up and down simultaneously as I forced myself to only think of those sounds and nothing more. Three days ago, my parents came to Ethan's mansion and demanded I leave with them and since then, I had been in the Nielson's mansion. But that was three fucking days ago! When the first day passed, I was like... Maybe Olivia took harder to catch, that's why I haven't heard anything from them. When the second day passed, my resolve started to weaken, but I still trusted Ethan. He couldn't possibly leave me for Olivia right? The woman kidnapped his niece! And then that day passed. Now this was the third day, I have no idea what to think anymore.I've tried everything freaking possible; yelling, begging God, sobbing, I even swallowed up my ego and my anger I

    Ethan's POVIn less than a few hours, my plan worked. Olivia took the bait. I was right, Olivia indeed had more spies in my house and they immediately went to tell her everything I had said. Olivia probably got agitated and evaded her previous hiding spot, but that was the one thing in her plan she did wrong. Right now, I was standing outside her new hiding spot with Mark and Detective Williams. After I told Mark my real plan, he insisted we involve the police, just to make sure that Rachel's name was completely cleared. She was in an abandoned building owned by the Sangria's a few miles away from town and figured, of course, she'd use an abandoned house. " Are we sure she's in there?" Detective Williams asked, bringing out his gun from his pocket and steading it in his hands. Yup, I was sure. I nodded. The main reason because, I had her trailed her by John. I had John fixed at the outskirts of town because I knew Olivia wouldn't dare stay here anymore if she thought I was comin

    Ethan's POVAs I watched Rachel leave with her parents, I felt a piece of my entire being leaving with her. Was I making the right decision to let her leave? Maybe I should have fought her parents about their decision so she would stay. But what if things went sideways with Olivia and then the latter comes after her? " Ethan,". Hannah called me bringing me out of my thoughts. " What's going on? I thought we already knew where Olivia was. Why can't we just go there and demand my son back?" My sister asked with tears in her eyes. How was I going to say this?" I don't know where Olivia is. " Marina's eyes almost bulged out of her sockets. " You don't know what now?" She screamed. Hannah also had a look of surprise on her face. " Brother..."I ran my tongue over my patched lips. " I don't know where Olivia is right now, but..." I added before Mark would say something which he clearly looked like he wanted to. " ... I know where she will be in the next few hours". Hannah's brows fu

    Rachel's POVAs we paced outside the room the maid was kept in my heart kept beating loudly in my chest. Marina, Hannah, Mark and I kept our eyes glued to the door waiting for Ethan to come out of the room. Ethan went in few minutes ago, after I told them about my decision to not leave until Olivia's location is found. I want to at least know that I didn't ruin a little boy's life and then disappeared. " What the hell is taking him so long?" Hannah groaned desperately itching her neck and hands in irritation and desperation. " All he had to do was to kindly ask the damn lady where her accomplice or even master is, come on, just how hard is that? "I inwardly snickered. To Ethan that was very hard. He was a kind man, but that was until he was messed with. Talking kindly to that lady was like the hardest thing for him to do right now, but he had no choice. It's either that or he loses both his nephew, and his sister. Even I wouldn't be able to fill that void. The creaking sound of

    Rachel's POVThere was no room for any 'buts'. Even if it was my life, these three people right here had more say in it than I did. I just shook my head at them and began walking backward. " This isn't fair. "I wasn't a kid, I could make my own decisions. But apparently, these three people here care more about me than I did myself, so whatever decision they made for me was right, at least in their eyes."Rachel ".My parents called after me, but I turned a deaf ear as I ran up the stairs and into my room, shutting the door loudly as soon as I got him. "Dargh!!!" This was all just so frustrating. How could they ask me to leave?Oh yeah, they ain't even asking me! They were commanding me to and I was to obey?" This parents of mine are crossing the line. " I muttered angrily to myself getting hold of a pillow and throwing it towards the wall. The worst part was Ethan was in on this too.

No, I was the only one allowed to blame him for reasons best known to me, no one else. My chest tightened and I shook my head, slowly stepping away from my mother. "It's not his fault." "How is this not his fault? All because of him you were exposed to such a dangerous woman!" My father refused to budge on his accusation. He keep a stern look and a finger at Ethan.Just seeing the way he looked so guilty... For fuck sake you're a man, deny the darn things. It wouldn't really even be called denial since it was not true in the first place. Lenora must have noticed my discomfort because she left my side and went to stand beside her husband.

Two fucking hours of beating the shit of whatshername but yet she refused to say nothing. How could a person be so loyal to another? The only good part of all this was that I get to beat the bitch who was strapped in a chair, and I would have enjoyed it also if it wasn't for the fact that we were running out of time. "So how's is your plan going?" Hannah said from behind me in a mocking voice.I turned to look at her with a tight smile. " Why not you have a go at her? Oh, I forgot you just came out of the room where the maid's kept. I should be asking if you got anything". I snapped back at her. For the last few hours, Hannah has just been looking for ways to make me feel guilty for her son, and what I hated the most was that it was working. "Can you both please just cut it?
