Chapter 136TANYA POVI blinked my eyes open adjusting it to the light of the room.‘Where am I ?,' I thought as I try to absorb my environment. I looked at the syringe that was pierced into my skin and I felt a new cold wash over my body.‘Artie?, Artie?'. I called as I tried to sit up but felt a sharp pain.“Ms. You are awake please don't move I will go call the doctor." A young woman who was dressed in a blue scrub ran out of the room.I looked at my hands realizing I was in the hospital.‘ If I was in the hospital then Artie was alone'. The thought of Artie being alone terrified me.I tried to get up but the woman from before came in with some doctors and nurses. “Don't move Ms. You still have some poison in you". The doctor warned.‘Poison!, From what I remember, I was standing in a room then I started to feel a bit dizzy before I lost consciousness. I had inhaled poison instead and now had no idea where Artie was. What am I going to do now?, What will Arturo think of me?, He mig
Chapter 137ARTURO POVFor the first time in my life, I panicked when Tanya fell unconscious. When I called the doctor's attention, he said “It's ok she needs rest. The poison makes her weak and nothing more."I carried his words to heart and promised to end if his diagnosis was wrong.“Could you guys stop hovering over her. She needs space to breathe properly. And stop sulking like she is going to die anytime soon." Frank complained.“I told you I never liked him". Artie added “Obviously, he irks me a lot but it won't be advisable to end him." I said Frank hissed and was about to make a counter back when his phone rang.“How long are you going to spend your life there. I don't understand the kind of business trip you went on. I might really divorce you if you keep me waiting like this for long!" A voice I had become accustomed to yelled through the phone. “Did you not tell your wife?," I muttered trying to spice things up. Ella was not an easy woman to handle. I noticed she easily g

I had left them to have their privacy but now that things were tough for him, I just couldn't ignore it again.I left Artie with my phone and walked towards them.“I don't think it's necessary to tell you anything now. Your condition is worse now so rest". I intervened.I noticed Arturo's shoulders fall but it went stiff again. He was regretting everything he had caused her. I don't get why he feels this way when I too caused her pain.‘Arturo you need to stop this regrets you keep carrying everything is in the past now.' I tried to convince him to set his mind at ease but he was too defiant.‘It's impossible Frank, I hurt her so much that my sins can't be forgiven easily. Now, the pain will...'.‘Enough!, I'm tired of you complaining and regretting. If you truly care about her then you should know by now that she is not the kind to bear things in mind.

The man had man who had questioned us was lying died on the floor and I was blocking Artie's sight from seeing the bloody mess his father had caused.“Dude, what the heck is wrong with you?, There Is a kid here remember," I scolded him but he remained adamant cleaning of the blood that stained his hand.“I don't mind seeing bloody things, I kill animals like him too," Artie said and I stared at him in surprise.‘This kid is really abnormal. He is just like his father.' I thought in my mind.“Do we have to really lay low?, These people are acting fast in transporting that thing. If we keep wasting time we will end up finding nothing. Besides, I'm already reeled up because of what that moron did to Tanya," Arturo impatiently said squeezing his palms tight.“Fine, I will take the left and you handle the right. Artie I want you to remain calm and stay out of sight," I mentioned because darting to the left slashing two men with m
Chapter 140Tanya povI woke up to the sound of crashing equipment. The nurse that was on duty was quite clumsy I was afraid she might administer my medication wrongly.My body kept growing weak and weak but the doctor said it was a usual thing. The fact that no one knew the exact poison in my body worried me. I tried sitting up but the nurse prevented me stating that I would cause more complications for myself if I sat up.I looked at my body and trembled on the sight of how my body was slowly turning dark purple. I hoped Arturo was getting to the bottom of this.“can I have some water?," I asked the nurse but she ignored me concentrating on what she was doing.“Hello," I called out not knowing her name but she didn't turn.I started to get a weird feeling that something was wrong. The nurse didn't answer me until she was done with infusing the liquid medicine in her syringe. “It's time to take your medication," she said with a sardonic smile and closed eyes. “Can you call me doct
Chapter 141Tanya povI fell into Arturo's embrace as I let him carry me in his arms. After we had kissed I helped but imagine how much I had fallen and kept falling for him.Now that my father is dead and I know the cause, I needed to get this poison out of my body to avenge him.It didn't take long for me and Arturo to reach the harbor where the ship carried the vessels. Some of his men were already doing some cleaning up. Pulling dead bodies and throwing them into the sea is a perfect grave for their evil doing.As I watched the scene, I felt my body grow weak like my life force was being pulled out of my body.“Arturo, I don't feel so good. My strength keeps leaving me and now I don't think I can feel a thing.," I complained to him.The poison was seriously have an effect on me my hands and legs were already half purple and my eyes had turned full black.This cared me so much knowing that this poison would be the end of me.

Chapter 142Tanya povNebraska was like a hidden jungle with tons of beautiful flowers arranged in order of their color. Their pathway was aligned with trees that formed beautiful shades like a tunnel. The people here were different, they had sharp ears, wolf ears and their skin was either dark or light. I noticed that their women were naturally endowed which explained why the woman who led us was the way she was. But nevertheless, I still did not feel comfortable with her around.“Honey," Arturo called me and I gawked at him in confusion. ‘What's with the name?,’ I asked him in my mind and he chuckled making it possible for me to feel the rumble in his chest.“I'm all yours," He whispered. My face reddened from his tease as I realized that he had been listening to my mind all long.“It's not what you think," I denied but he smirked at me jolting me in his arms. I yipped from his action holding his shirt tight. The little movement I made caused me pain. I winced from the torture and

I had fought its king and almost took over his kingdom but things happened and I lost interest.My presence was announced as I walked into the room meeting my very old rival. He eyes glistened with terror giving me the satisfaction I expected.I chuckled as he gnashed his teeth at me. The fact that he had his guards on stand by meant the he still reckoned my powers.“What do you want?," He asked and I smirked.“That is a very unusual question to ask a long time friend. We haven't crossed parts for years Wilsdon. You shouldn't be hostile towards me," I cajoled.“Whar do you expect?, You almost destroyed my kingdom years ago. And you expect me to be hospitable towards you. If I didn't know who you
