Daisy's POV

"Oh where are my manners, my name is Kyle" He says and offers me a boyish smile.

I keep staring at him wearily and he moves his eyes to my hand and raises his eyebrow. It was then that I noticed he had extended his hand for a shake and he moves it closer urging me to shake his hand.

I reluctantly take it and then snatch my hand away from him. I'm not comfortable around strangers, it's always so awkward.

He raises an eyebrow and sits down beside me leaning his back against the tree looking completely relaxed. Care-free and nonchalant seem to be the definition of this boy.

I've never seen him around in school but then again, I always tend to be oblivious to things around me or maybe.....

"Stop looking at me like you've seen a ghost, I've been in your school since the beginning of the year" He says breaking my train of thoughts.

"Sorry" I apologize not knowing if I was apologizing for staring at him or for not knowing him.

"It's okay. So what's got you so mad?" He asks.

    Hunter's POVSweat breaks out on my skin and I glance down to where Daisy was gripping me. She's asleep and yet she's driving me crazy. I had carried her from the floor to the bed because she was cold but that plan seems to have backfired now."Daisy stop doing th.........arghhhhh" I shout when she squeezes me.Her eyes snap open and she looks down then immediately turns her head to face me, horror and mortification evident on her face.I grow hard and her eyes widen more and she snatches her hands away. Well, what did she expect? A girl was touching me; a beautiful one at that and she expects my body to remain as still as a tree stump?"I-I'm sorr... I-I didn't m-mean....This is n-not....I m-mean..........Ughh, It wasn't me!" She stutters and then finally exclaims out.I open my mouth to talk but she interrupts me."I mean it w-was me but not me me, I-It's more like unconscious me.

    Daisy's POVAs I walk away from Hunter, I place my hand over my chest to try and make my heart stop beating faster. I liked being in Hunter's arms, I liked him comforting me, a little too much for my liking. Back there, he made me really believe that everything would be okay even though I know that nothing will ever be able to fill the absence my mother left when she died.My mother was the sweetest and kindest woman that ever existed. She lit up the room with her smile and draws everyone in with her kindness. My father was so in love with my mother that when she died, I don't think he ever fully recovered; though he doesn't show it. He always tries to stay strong for me and he never even glanced at any other female with interest.If only I had listened............If only I had been faster.......If only I had been quicker.......... None of this would have happened. I run my hand through my hair to clear my head. It's no use having regrets now.My mind involuntarily goes back to when

    Hunter's POV"Hello Hunter" The Eve chick says smiling coyly and taking her time to shake my hands. I'm not stupid; I know when a chick is blatantly flirting with me and I normally would flirt back but I can't help but notice everything that was too little and too much about her. Like how her hair is too long, not the perfect length like Daisy's, how she's not as tall as Daisy, How her hair is not blonde like Daisy, How she doesn't smell of citrus like Daisy, In conclusion, she just isn't Daisy.She turns to Daisy with a barely noticeable smirk on her face."Hi Daisy, It's a pleasure to see you again" She says extending her hands for a shake.Huh? What does she mean by again?Do they know each other?I glance at Daisy to see her face in shock like she has just seen a ghost. She quickly recovers and tries to smile but fails and then take Eve's hand shake offer."I'm confused. What do you mean by again? Have you guys met before?" Kyle (who I hate) asks as confused as everyone.Eve lets

    Hunter's POVI freeze in my steps as the words Taylor just said kept ringing in my head.I love you.I've always did.I turn to face her and I see all my friends and Daisy's friends staring at Taylor in shock. I move my gaze to Taylor's face and for once since we've started high school, I see a hint of the old Taylor peeking through. That still does not assuage the shock her words have coursed through me though.She loves me? Taylor loves me?Why would she love me? I've never done anything to encourage her to love me. In fact, I've never done anything to encourage anyone to have feelings for me. As much as I sleep around, I can't hurt a girl like that. All the girls I sleep with know the deal.And what does she mean by she always has?"Taylor I don't......." I start to say but she cuts me off."Hunter, please listen to me, I've always loved you since we were small but then......." She pauses to sniff."But then, we got to the age where you started to notice girls and I thought that m

I don't have anything to live for anymore. He doesn't want me and it's all because of that slut. What has he asked for that I didn't give to hi...........don't you dare come near me!"

    Daisy's POVWhy does that sound so bad?I continue packing and a few minutes later, I hear the footstep of someone entering the tent. I turn to see that that person was Hunter. I examine his neat clothes and appearance; he didn't look like someone who spent the night with a woman.King jumps up from my bed and runs towards Hunter with his tail wagging happily. He lets out tiny barks and he tries to jump as high as he can to get Hunter's attention.Hunter bends down beside him and scratches King's belly before he moves his eyes to me making our gazes meet. I break the stare and continue packing while mumbling an awkward 'good morning' to him with a stray tear falling from my right eye but I hastily wipe it away.I just can't get the image of him kissing Taylor out of my head.He greets me back and goes to the side of his tent packing his own bag. Silence reigns for an hour before he grunts in what seems to be frustration and comes to the side of my bed pulling me up by my waist."You k

    Daisy's POV"What! NO! I don't want to get married to someone I don't know! And that too, at age 18!!!" I screech shooting up from my seat."You won't get married now, you're too young. But you're going to be engaged till you both graduate college. Daisy, please don't question me on this one." He says tiredly and I notice the big bags under his eyes since the first time that I've entered the study making me feel like the worst daughter in the world. That still doesn't make me relent though."I'm not selling the rest of my life away just so you can make profits" I say walking out of the study and slamming the door before walking angrily to my room.I furiously throw all my pillows at the door and glare at nothing imagining it was the stupid idiot I was supposed to marry. Unwillingly,my mind goes to Hunter. Maybe I was secretly hoping that the kiss might have been a start of...........No, no, no Daisy don't go there. That would be a perfect recipe for disaster and heartbreak.Now inste

    Chapter 70 Daisy's POV *3 months later* "Aww come on Daisy, I was joking, you can't seriously be mad at me for this" Hunter says and I grunt in response. "Daisy, talk to me" He says taking his eyes off the road for a few seconds to look at me. "Whatever, I don't care" I answer facing away from him and staring at my phone like there was something interesting on it. "Wait, are you jealous?" He asks grinning widely making me feel like kissing the stupid thing of his face. "Why would I be jealous of your 'new pretty personal assistant'" I respond making air quotes around 'new pretty assistant' to show I'm quoting him exactly how he said it. I had quit working for him a month ago to move to my dad's own group of hotels which he will be handing over to me when he retires. It also helps that I studied business management in college. My post back at Stone's empire has been vacant up until today when another P.A was employed by Mrs. White. We are currently on our way to a little get t

    Chapter 69Hunter's POV"Don't even think of moving boy" A sadistic voice says from beside me.The person walks forward with his gun still pointing at me and I see the face responsible for ten years of misery in all of our lives: Levi."What pretty boy? Why are you glaring at me like that?" He asks with a grin and one eyebrow raised or maybe his two eyebrows but I wouldn't know since the other eye was covered with an eye patch."If it's money you want, I'll give it to you" I state my heart beating wildly at the fact that Eve still had her gun pointed at Daisy.On a closer look, I notice Daisy's chest moving up and down rapidly. The expression on her face was that of pure panic and she looked like she would pass out at any moment now.Angel, please stay with me.Levi laughs maniacally at my question before responding "Money? You think I want money? Come to think of it, maybe the reason I haven't killed my self all these years was because I knew there was a probability this bastard was

    Chapter 68Hunter's POVI left Daisy at her Dad's place after talking to him for a while so that they could talk more. He was surprised we used his hair for the DNA testing instead of just asking him for his blood but I told him I didn't want to get his hopes up.Daisy said she would head to Keesha's place after leaving there so I told her I would send the driver down to her but Mr. Heart said his driver would do it.It made me happy to see how proud he was of who Daisy had grown into. Immediately after leaving there, I had called my friends and Daisy's friends to tell them about the good news. To say they were ecstatic was an understatement. They all promised to fly back as soon as they had chances to.Right now though, I'm heading to the office where Mike is waiting for me. I had thought that I would not be needing his services anymore since I found Daisy but something about seeing Eve again does not sit well with me.When Daisy passed out, I had rushed to her side and before I kne

I had to use the bathroom but I didn't want to wake you up" I hear her voice say and I turn to see her coming out of the bathroom making me sag in relief."What's wrong? Why do you look so shocked to see me?" She asks laughing as she puts her hair into a loose ponytail."Nothing, come here" I reply making her walk towards me.When she reaches the bedside, I pull on her hand making her fall on top of me."Where's my morning kiss?" I ask grinning up at her."No, I haven't brushed" she answers trying to wriggle out of my grip but that only makes me tighten it around her."How can you say no to such a cute face?" I say trying my best to pout."Stop, that looks so wrong on you" she says laughing and I pout harder

After a few seconds, I notice that her hands and legs are tied up. I hurriedly try to help her and then realize that mine are tied too.I struggle to sit up and only then do I notice that we are in a car and Levi is the driver while Miss. Violet sat in the passenger seat."Daisy, I'm scared, Why is your nanny doing this to us? And who is that crazy man?" Lily asks crying."Shut your mouth before I shut it for you" Levi yells while increasing the speed of the car."Listen Levi, you want me not her. She has nothing to do with this, she's not even family, let her go, please" I plead while I scoot closer to Lily who was shaking in terror."Miss. Violet, having her with us will only increase your risk of being caught. Please tell him to let her go, you don't need her. I'll do anything you want, please" I direct my words towards Miss.
