Amara's POV I finally admitted to myself that I had made a grave mistake. I shouldn't have listened to Gio or even thought of leaving the house. Was that why he had been al strange? I clutched onto the bedsheets tightly as I remembered how Dee punched me in the face without remorse. He had changed and I couldn't place the reason for his change. I wished I could call Luciano to come and take me from this place but it wasn't possible. Gio's disappointment kept me in shock and I wondered what he would gain from selling me off to Dee. I was exhausted from thinking so I shut my eyes and drifted off. I woke up feeling uncomfortable like I was being watched so I jerked when I saw Jordan stare at me casually. His attire amused me which made me wonder how Dee coped with someone like him. 'Dickhead!' He was dressed in a pair of faded jeans with a black shirt that clung onto his lean body; He wasn't muscular. A scarf that contained several colors was t
Dee's POV I felt irritated while staring at her. The fact that she was pregnant disgusted me because I knew it wasn't mine but my brother who I loathed so much. That bastard always takes what belongs to me! Why?! I moved away and tried to stop the tears that flowed from my eyes freely. I cleaned my face immediately not wanting anyone to see how vulnerable I was. I needed to be sure that she was actually pregnant though I saw the blood. It could just be a line. "Are you really pregnant?" I asked. She barely nodded before passing out. My heart reached out to her because of how weak she looked, and I regretted leaving her alone with Jordan. "Why don't you kill her now, so you can go ahead with your plans?" Jordan suggested after shutting the door behind him and Dee glared at him. "Not yet," I said coldly. "Why not?" He asked in a whisper like he was scared of someone else eavesdropping on them. "I have hacked into her phone and Gio's al
Dee's POV I was scared stiff to my bones when I saw him point the gun at me and I got really angry in my innards that he still had much influence over me. He was here for Amara and if he evee discovered that I was the one who took her then I will be dead meat. I couldn't risk that so I thought of what to say to calm him down and I was also happy that she was no longer in the house. "Calm down brother, you wouldn't want to kill your only brother, do you?" I asked nervously. "I don't care about my relationship with you. Where is Amara? Where have you kept her?" He thundered, cocking the gun. With how mean and determined his face looked, he was ready to shoot if I made any wrong move, so I worked on calming him down or I die. "She isn't here, Luciano. What made you think she will be here?" I asked and made an angry face which he didn't bother looking at. "What do you mean she isn't here?" Luciano asked, confusion visible in his voice.
Dee's POV Living with Amara made me feel so uncomfortable. Everyday, I was reminded that the baby in her womb wasn't mine. Most times, I was tempted to punch the baby out of her stomach but that would make her hate me more and put her health at risk. So I made a decision. I would have to eliminate the baby when it is born, I didn't have a concrete plan yet but it was already decided. If I was to live in peace with Amara then the baby had to be out of our lives. I watched every of her moves and I could tell that she was very protective of the baby, which annoyed me and got imagining her taking care of my own baby like that. I left her alone in the room after making sure she was fine then headed to the kitchen to take a glass of water. My steps were noiseless so Jordan didn't know that I was watching him. "You seem to be busy with your phone, what's going on?" I asked and he dipped the phone into his pocket, looking startled. "Why did you
Luciano's POV Ever since she left, I had been so restless and unhappy. I felt like she left with a part of me in her, the happy side of me. I kept ranting and screaming at anyone who tried to tell me anything. Her absence made me realize how much I loved her and how important she was to me. I never treated her right and that was why she never confided in me. I promised myself that I would take care of her and never hit her if she came back to me; if I found her. So far I had destroyed some of the paintings on the wall, the flower vase that decorated my table and even threw half of my documents on the floor and I wondered why I hadn't smashed my phone as well. Shuri and Gio were present in the room but none of them could calm me down as I had gotten very livid. Shuri's bag was packed beside her, ready to leave to Massimo's. I sighed, remembering that I hadn't settled the issue we had. "You have to calm down, Dad. Maybe she ran away, y
Luciano's POV I was surprised at the message because it wasn't typed, but it was a video so I clicked on it and sat down to watch its content. The first person I saw got me startled. It showed Amara lying on the bed with how mouth gagged. Her hair was tussled and I could hear her groans from my phone. Then someone climbed her and tore off her clothes while she struggled against him. I would have smiled at how fierce she was if we were together so I watched the video to see who the man was and discovered that it was my twin, Dee. I paused the video in shock, anger coursing my bones making me regret why I left his house without searching the rooms thoroughly. Especially the room he stopped me from entering. God help him when we see because I would rip him apart. How dare he mess with my woman? I played the video again though I was enraged and watched how he smacked her ass and tried to taking off his pants. The irritated and disgusted me further so I paused it finally so I
Luciano's POV "I'll get new ones soon, besides most of these gadgets aren't as efficient as they were," I said and dusted my palms then cleaned it with a white towel. "You don't have to bother yourself about it. I'll do everything in my room then give you an update when I'm done," He said and I gave him my phone. I wanted to ask him why he didn't do it here as he said earlier, then I remembered that he was injured and might not be comfortable here, so I let him be and walked out of the control room. I returned to my office and met Shuri sitting on the chair tiredly. I had even forgotten that she was still in my office. But I didn't blame myself because I had asked her to leave and she refused. "You have to go to bed, Shuri. It's late already and you look worn out," I advised but she shook her head vehemently. Her stubbornness was beginning to piss me off, but I wouldn't do anything about it because I had other important things to work on. "I can't sleep yet even though I
Luciano's POV I cried till my head become heavy and no tears flowed anymore. I haven't cried this way in a long time and it made me uncomfortable because I hated the feeling of weakness and crying made me weak. Alita's death crumbled me and I became a shadow of myself for four years then Amara came into my life. She looked just like Alita and reminded me of her so I decided to keep her. I made some research on her background and discovered that it was her parents that I killed several years back. But it wasn't that way she meant it! I didn't mean to and I only shot at ach of them once. Still, She was an orphan because of me and now, I understood why she was bitter with me. She was gone without trace and no one was around to comfort me. My chest tightened and I began to hyperventilate, the feeling of anxiety washed over me, so I rushed towards my drawer and took my drugs. I had stopped taking it for a long time ever since I had the discus
