ELENA

I looked at Jason with suspicion and shyness. His tone certainly didn't sound innocent, and the smile that came behind it, was for from innocent too.

"Jason!" I whispered yelled, gesturing at the door and moving as far away from him as possible. But he wasn't having it, as the next thing I knew, he was getting up from the bed and advancing towards me, really fast.

First off, my parents didn't stay in this part of the house. Secondly, I knew there was no way they would hear me moan. Thirdly, the reason I was afraid of doing anything with Jason, was not the actual activity. It was the morning after. The fact that I would have to face my parents in the morning, and probably be found out by my mother from just my expression, was where the real dear lay.

I narrowed my eyes at him as he stopped in front of me.

"Clean it off, Elena." Jason said, raising his brow at me, with the sly smile still attatched to his lips.

"And if I don't?" I asked, taking another step back. I stilled complet

    ELENAI couldn't sleep.Jason had slept of already, after he had helped me clean up, and had snuggled me into his warmth, which was the next best thing to actual heaven.But while his soft breath fanned my neck continuously as he slept, I found it hard to sleep. And had lain that way for over an hour now, with my thoughts scattered about.I was in love with Jason Richardson.I hadn't even know the man for a complete two months, and I had fallen in love with him. Completely. It was when he had said those damn words to me while he was cleaning me up, that I had realizes just how foolish I had been.And it had almost nothing to do with the words, but his gentleness and the softness in his gaze...those soft kisses too..The truth was, the man acted more like a real lover to me, than someone who just wanted to have a good time.Why did he have to be so sweet and gentle?I slowly brought my hand to his own, and lifted them away from my body as slowly as possible, trying my best not to wake

    ELENA"Don't you think there is any hope at all for a real relationship between the two of you?"That's was the question Jane had asked me. Which had kept on ringing in my head since she had said it. I had stayed out for a while after the call, before making my way back inside, where I had finally fallen asleep, with Jason instinctively reaching out for me."What exactly is this party for again?" Jason asked for the third time that evening as we got dressed. We had actually had the day all to ourselves as my parents had been so busy in setting up a party, which they hadn't informed me about when I had called to tell them I was arriving for the weekend.Now we were stuck in a neighborhood charity part, where donations were made by everyone in the neighborhood, to give to the neighborhood orphanage and old old people's home, amongst others.Yes, the money went to the people it was meant for, but I never understood why they had to throw a party for it. And at a time, I and my sister had

    JASON"I suppose Elena told you no one is allowed touch of these, and still goes ahead to bring you in here. And then as if that is not enough, I come in here in the morning tend to my plants and find the biggest and juiciest pieces missing." Thomas said, advancing towards me. "I was wondering who took them, until I found the daisies my wife planted, on the floor. And I know just one person in this house who likes to pluck off the leaves of daises." He walked past me to stand in front of the daises.Oh...so that had been the flower Elena was playing with the previous night.I thought..I didn't dare utter a word, unsure of what to say, as he stood with his back to me.He stayed quiet for a moment, before turning to look at me, with eyes that were very similar to Elena's. Now that I had seen Thomas, I knew she was the spitting image of the man."Why did you do it?" He asked.I knew immediately, that he wasn't talking about the berries or the daises. He was talking about the money I had

    JASONI couldn't find Elena.I had walked through the crowd to of people who were still outside, over and over again, but still couldn't find her.Had she gone inside? "Jason!" I turned to see her mityer waving me over with a huge smile on her face. One look at the women surrounding her, told me that whatever she was calling me for, wasn't going to go down well with me.I could already feel my stomach drop a little as I walked towards the group of women, who all had there eyes on me."Jason! I've been looking for you everywhere." Elizabeth, Elena's mother said, once I reached their little gathering.I smiled back at her and nodded at the women who had not taken their eyes off me for one monent. I murmured a greeting to them, and once they all answered me, I turned turned to Elena's mother."Elena was showing me around. Your house is really beautiful,." I said with smile still plastered on my face."Well, I'm glad you like my house Jason ." She said, then gestures at the three women s

    ELENAI groaned again as my head throbbed.I had woken up, only for me to see myself wedged between a bookshelf, and an old chair that was used in the library by my mother.I peeked my eyes open, one after the other, and almost cried, when the light from the library ceiling hit my eyes.I shut them back, almost screaming from how painful it felt."Elena!" Jason called, making me open my eyes again, just to see him staring at me with shock from his position, before crouching down next to me, with wide eyes filled with worry."Jason .." I murmured softly and tried to sit up, but was soon sent back to my position as I felt pain in my neck."What the hell happened?" Jason asked, coming closed to me to inspect my body. He placed his hands gently on my shoulders, then lifted one to my face.I blinked, trying the recall everything that happened. "Someone hit me on the head, while I was in this study." I tried to sit up, but Jason held me down. "I saw them break in..." I narrated everything t

    ELENAI woke up the next morning, feeling a little bit better. At least, when I opened my eyes, I didn't feel like I was being blinded by the light.I turned, about to leave the bed, when I saw Jason's sleeping form. I decided to stall a little bit as I just watched him.The man was too good looking to be true.Last night, he had told me that he had feeling for me. And I had of course, been flattered that he liked me. But now, as I had awoken this morning, I couldn't help feeling like it was all born out of the incident that had happened the previous night. I mean, emotions had been flying about. He had specifically said that he had felt fear when he had thought that I was going to die. I didn't blame him. We had the oddest of relationships, where love was not in the picture, but there was a picture if friendship lurking around in the corners. And sex too. A lot of sex.So, it was normal for him to say he liked me.Now, I didn't know if I was trying to convince myself that Jason did

    ELENAI was shaking when I saw the gun. Jason seemed shocked too, but was handling the whole scenero better than I was as he carefully picked it up and placed it on the counter.When he had asked if I had ordered for anything to be delivered to the house, my heart had suddenly skipped, because, the last time, it had been a prank. And I had heard a lot of scarey stories about things like that, abd Joe they ended badly almost all the time.But sending a gun, was going way too far, even for a prankster.First, someone had done to rob my parents, and barely twenty four hours later, we had seen a gun in front of the house."Maybe you should call the police." I suggested, looking at Jason, who was just staring hard at the gun. A thunderous expression on his handsome face."I really don't understand. Like, u don't know what to make of this. This is like the most unusual shit I have ever encountered in my entire life." He said, frowning.We heard the door, open and close, at the same, causing

    JASONThere was nothing on the cctvs. Nothing that could help me, apart from the footage of the men in the ski masks that had known exactly what they were doing. Now though, as I still sat in the study with my phone in my hands, I wondered my next move. I had already called the private investigator, and things were already underway, but what was left is deciding whether to still stay in the damn house or just go somewhere else. This was supposed to be a safe place for heaven sake!"I don't think you should move out of your house just because some men came here to drop off a gun." Tyler was saying, after I had asked for his opinion on the next step he thought I should take.I turned to him with a frown plastered on my face. "You don't understand. I mean, I think I can survive on my own, but I'm worried about..." I let my voice trail off as my mind was filled with different scenerios that involved Elena. And they were far from nice.Almost causing a painful squeeze in my chest."Elena

    ELENAI smiled as I looked at my self in the mirror.It had been exactly two weeks since the incident with Colton, and we had resolved a lot of issues.Jason had come to confess to me about what he had hired Colton to do, and the truth was, even if I had been hurt hearing it from him, I had actually known about it. The night before that day, I had been having a very serious headache and had been on my way to the bedroom when I had heard him and Tyler argue about it.But I had also heard him say that he hadn’t gone through with it and had only kept Colton there.I had forgiven him then, because I couldn’t blame him. It wasn’t easy losing your father and then hearing that he had given everything he had to his assistant.Jason had even confessed that he hat thought that I was his father’s mistress and had cast it out of his kind the night we had made love for the first time.It had been a long discussion, but had actually settled a lot of things.And there was something Colton had said t

    JASONI didn’t want to believe what Lucinda was saying, but with everything that had been happening for the past few days, I couldn’t not believe her. I would be a fool to give Colton the benefit of a doubt.I had taken care of that man right from the time I had seen him looking all tattered and unkempt. And all that had been a ploy to extract money from me?Well now that he had taken the millions I gave him and the one that he had stolen from Elena. Why couldn’t he just let my family be?“And did he tell you why he was doing all of this to me and my family? Did he tell you why he tried to kill us?” I asked in a raised voice that sent Lucinda cowering away, and hiding her face behind the curtain of her straight blond hair.I had always known there was something off about her. The way she behaved. The way she spoke. The way she kept mostly to herself as if the whole world was against her or something. You had always known.I just hadn’t expected this.“No. I swear he didn’t. Most of th

    ELENAI didn’t have to stare at the picture for very long before I realized who it was. Even if I had seen his face only once, I could recognize him from anywhere.The eyes were a dead giveaway.Such dead eyes. Menacing eyes that looked like they had no soul.I could remember the first and only time I had seen his picture and had literally been scared of it the moment I set my eyes on him.It had to be him.“What do you mean by knowing who this man is?” It was Tyler who was asking and I turned to look at him.“Tyler, where is Lucinda?” I asked, lifting myself off Jason’s lap.The both of them looked at me in confusion as I went in search for Lucinda.“She just left. What does that have to do with anything?” Jason, who had gone completely silent, finally spoke, in a cool voice.I looked from Jason to Tyler and sighed, leaning on the kitchen counter as I recalled what had happened the day I had seen that face.“I am telling you, that that man in that picture, is Lucinda’s boyfriend. So

    COLTONMy stomach hurt.I couldn’t breathe.I had been running for hours and hours as the police chased after me, showing up at every spot I tried to hide.How had this happened?I had planned everything. It had taken me weeks to do so, but I had put everything in place for the big day. Including all those distractions at Elena’s parents home, and the prank with the him.I had done everything to make sure things went according to plan. But Craig had spooked everything when he had gone inside and probably alerted the police and Jason about what was going on.This was not the first time I had gone to that bank to make a huge transaction. And it was a the fifth time either. But that idiot had chosen to make a big deal out of it. And I wasn’t going to forgive him for what he had done.By the time I was done with Jason and Elena, then i would go to Craig.Deep down though, I knew it was all because of that idiot. He had already made Craig’s transfer that huge sum to his Swiss account. And

    JASON“Are you trying to tell me that Colton is involved in this sham too? Because I find that very hard to believe.” Tyler, who was usually reasonable in situation like these, looked like he was about to lose it. And I didn’t blame him. I found it hard to believe too.It was crazy as fuck just thinking about it. In fact, I just wanted to go home and rest already.We had closed all activities today as the police went in search of Colton.He had escaped as soon as Craig had gone into that room to make that call.Probably had panicked when Craig spent a little over a few minutes in his bid to reach me.“I’m as confused as you are, Tyler.” I said, as the guilt that always ate me up began to resurface again.We were currently on our way home as we had closed really early and had decided to head home and wait for any news on the police chase that was going on right as we spoke.“Do you know if he had any kind of animosity towards you are something?” Jane asked from the seat opposite us.

    ELENAI couldn’t even believe what was going on as I looked from one brother to the next. What were the odds?I knew it definitely wasn’t a coincidence that the same to y Richardson was the one who had rendered my family broke beyond repair, and had run off with my fathers vast wealth, to go do whatever he liked with it. That was as far as I knew at the moment. My father had claimed that he had known nothing about his were abouts, until his death in that plane crash. “Something doesn’t just feel right about all of this.” Tyler said, looking from me, to Jason, who had gone really quiet ever since he had told me that Tony was his uncle.I cleared my throat and looked at them. “I mean, I’m not trying to say anything to worsen the situation or make anyone suspicious of anyone. But do you think the three of them knew each other?” I asked, staring pointedly at Jason. His frown had been increasing by the minute.“I don’t know, because the only person alive out of the three men, is Thomas.

    JASON“What are you talking about?” I asked Jane, dropping the file that I had picked up, babk in its place in the shelf.I made my way over to the computer with a huge frown on my face.What the heck did she mean by me having Elena’s father’s enemy’s picture in her phone?“This man right here.” Jane said, as soon as I reached and saw what she was talking about.But I was in for a shocker, and not just because of who she was pointing to, but what she had referred to him as. “But that’s my uncle.” I said, shaking my head. It was the picture I had taken at Elena’s fathers house with my phone. And since most of the things save in my phone went straight to my email, it automatically showed in my computer which had my email in it.And the picture was one of those things.Jane looked at me like I was mad. “No. I can recognize Tony Richardson anywhere_ “ she paused and looked from me to the picture. “Wait a minute. You are Richardson. And he is Richardson.” Her finger pointed from the me to

    JASONI sat in the office with Jane, trying to work on a little problem we were having with two of our plants. For some reason, while Colton had been working as my assistant, he had failed to realize that those particular plants was scheduled for maintenance and would take exactly two days before it could be in use again. And also, he had also omitted that detail when he had been maki g some entries on the particular time we were to make some deliveries.And now, since it was just me, Jane had offered to help me, while Elena was in a meeting. Which I was thankful for, because it was already taking a toll on me. I hated not delivering when I was supposed to.“Do we have any other option? Because at this moment, I think we have run out of every option we have.” I said tiredly.We ventured into a lot of businesses, and while this particular issue wasn’t going to make us actually loose much, but it would affect the other party badly.And I didn’t want that.My father had brought me up in

    ELENAI didn’t know what I was doing.All I knew was, I had to have my husband inside of me. I was honey as fuck, and I wasn’t sure that was the way it was supposed to be after the long conversation we had just had, but I guess that’s the situation I found myself.I had acted out on impulse a few minutes ago, telling him everything that had happened with Colton. I had known him hen that if I hadn’t done it that time, I wasn’t going to ever have the courage to do it again.And I could hear Jane’s voice egging me on as I started to speak. Even when I wanted to stop.I had seen Jason’s face show signs of jealousy and anger, but he had managed to sit through all of it, until I was done.And where I had expected anger, or at least, an indication that he was not happy with me, after I was done talking, I had been super when he had taken my hands in his like he had done, and told me what he did.“Don’t start what you can’t finish, Elena Richardson,” Jason said, clearing his throat.
