He touches his lips to mine; just a mere peck and I stand on my tip toes to get more......."Hunter, Mum says it's time to go" Lily suddenly appears and even though she sees the position we're currently in, she keeps standing there smiling.I move away from Hunter very reluctantly and he simply smiles and places a small peck on my cheek."See you at school tomorrow" he mutters before turning around and walking inside leaving me dazed."It worked, it worked! Now phase 2 is in progress" Lily mumbles to herself.When she finally notices she wasn't alone, she lifts her gaze to mine and clears her throat.I fix her with a glare for her earlier lies and give her an expectant look for her to explain herself."It was for a good cause! And besides I ....... You'll never catch me alive!!!" She declares turning around to run inside when she can't fin

Daisy's POVEveryone goes silent for a few seconds excluding some gasps before everything and everywhere goes hay wire. All these are just mere back ground noises though when Hunter's lips are on mine. I instantly wrap my arms around his neck and kiss him back like someone who has been starved of her favorite food for long. He groans into the kiss and then softly bites my lower lip making me moan and providing his tongue the entrance needed into my mouth. He pushes his tongue inside my mouth and I don't even bother to try and control the kiss, I just let him lead.Eventually the need for air wins out and we both reluctantly break apart only to see the whole school staring; some even taking pictures and videos. I immediately feel all the blood rushing to my cheek at what just happened, I've never really seen the appeal in PDA but with Hunter, I just seem to forget everything.And why did he kiss me like that?Was it just to make the engagement that'll be announced tonight look more re

Daisy's POV"It's not what it looks like!" I screech.He turns his mocking gaze to me "Oh, tell me exactly what is going on then?" He asks chuckling bitterly."He was just helping me out" I answer hurriedly having a strange urge to clear the misunderstanding. I'm not supposed to care that Hunter thinks I was about to kiss another guy but I do and I'm desperate for him to understand."Helping you do what? Clean your mouth with his?" He questions sneering and making a move to attack Dean again. I immediately jump between them successfully halting him in his steps."What? No, he was helping me with my eyes" I explain hoping to clarify everything."Because your eyes are just so dreamy he couldn't help but stare" He replies sarcastically and I feel my frustration starting to flare at his rudeness. We aren't even really together for heaven's sake!"I told you...." I start to say before he cuts me off rudely."You know what?! I'm done with this feelings shit and stuff. Thanks for reminding

Daisy's POVSilence.Absolute silence was what occupied the seconds that passed after I did the stupidest thing I've ever done: confess my feelings to Hunter.He finally recovers from the shock and fixes his intense stare on me."You like.......... Say that again" He says his voice taking on a very deep octave."It was a..... I didn't mean......I don't....... Fine. I like you. Go ahead and laugh it out" I answer worked up by the anticipation of his sure rejection.His expression completely changes and he moves closer to me holding my face in both his hands. I melt into his touch instantly and unconsciously take a step closer to him; every single thought flying out of head. I sigh at how familiar yet so different his caress felt this time. His eyes becomes completely fixed on mine except for some occasional moments when his eyes flick to my lips."Daisy, I want ....." He begins to say before a voice that I have strongly come to dislike stops him from completing his sentence and thereby

Daisy's POV"Yeah, And she was the reason" I state.He blinks at me in shock and confusion which slowly mutates to anger."What do you mean by she's the reason?" He asks his jaw clenching hard."I......" I gesture around the bathroom. "This isn't a conversation I imagined ever having in a bathroom" I say and he nods in understanding."Let's get out of here for today" he declares and I nod before what he says kick in."You mean skip school?" I ask and he affirms my question with another nod.In the state I was, I wouldn't even care if he had just told me to pack my luggage and run away to Mars with him.We sneak out of school and he opens the passenger's door for me before entering the car from his side.He drives out of the school compound and I exhale in relief from the growing distance between me and Eve. If I had a chance, I'd never go back to school as long as she was there. Lost in my thought, I didn't notice the car had stopped. I look out the window to see where we are and I se

Daisy's POV"Daisy" I hear my mother call but I was already fading into unconsciousness.The lights flicker on for a minute and my groggy eyes meet my mum's from afar. My mum shouts and calls the security team that followed us to the grocery store.She runs towards us followed by two bodyguards. When she reaches where we were, I was almost out of consciousness. "Let my daughter go, Levi" My mother pleads. I hear a maniacal laughter then feel something cool and sharp like a blade pressed against my neck."Take one more step forward Elena and she's gone" Eve's father says from behind me pressing the blade harder to my neck."Do something" My mother screams at the bodyguards.A bodyguard brings out his gun and shoots the other one before hitting my mother on the head with the back of his gun rendering my mother immediately unconscious. I wanted to scream and thrash my body. I wanted to run to my mum but my body was too weak."You've done a good job Tim, you'll be handsomely rewarded" Ev

Daisy's POVYou know that feeling where it seems like you don't have the ability to draw air into your lungs anymore? When you feel as if time just stopped and nothing is moving? It seems like in that frozen second, you've suddenly aged a hundred years as a result of disbelief in what just happened? If yes, multiply that by a thousand and that was exactly what I was feeling right now. The echo of the gunshot kept resounding in my ears. Oddly, I don't feel any pain. I look down at my chest expecting to see myself bleeding to death but the sight that meets my eyes when I look down was so much worse.My mother was on the floor coughing out blood clutching her stomach that was bleeding profusely.What just happened finally registers in my brain and I hurriedly bend down; tears blinding my vision.My mother has been shot.My mother took the bullet for me."Mum? Mum? Can you hear me? Mum, please stay with me" I place my mother's head on my lap crying her name repeatedly. Her eyes reflected

Daisy's POVWe stay under the tree for a few more hours. The topic of our conversation later shifted to lighter ones and I can't help but fall deeper for him as I got to know him more with me cuddled into him.This thing going on with Hunter and I didn't have a definition and I had no intention of asking or trying to define it because I'm scared of the answer that reality will bring crashing upon me.He dropped me off at home after school hours and promised to pick me up seven 'o' clock in the evening for the ball.The ball where our engagement will be announced.He then pecks me on the lips making my heart flutter in happiness and contentment. I float happily around the house and I hop into the shower. It's never too early to start preparing.Woah Daisy, Bipolar much? Just yesterday, I wasn't so thrilled about this engagement and now, I was practically flying in giddiness all because of a boy with blonde hair, hazel eyes and a one-cheek dimple.What changed?When I come out of the sh

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

Never again" I hear a soothing voice say and I suddenly open my eyes to see Hunter."Hunter, I'm bleeding" I say sitting up on the comfortable bed in a strange room. When I look down at my stomach though, I see no blood."What's going on?" I say holding my head to calm the pounding."Did Lily make it home safe? Wait, what happened to you? Why do you look old?"

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.

We spent two more days there after the day Hunter asked me out and I felt really sad when I had to say goodbye to Hunter's friends who I can now boldly call my friends.Although Blake and I got off on the wrong foot on my first day at work, this camp made me realize he was actually a very nice person. Fun to be with too.I also learnt that he was going through a messy divorce and a custody war with his ex-wife who he referred to as the reincarnation of the devil.Blake and Bloom remained polite to each other throughout but nothing more. I got closer to Lily, Chloe and Bloom on the third day when men and ladies spent their days apart.It was so easy to feel like I had known them for a long time and they treated me as such.When we met for lunch with the guys, Hunter kept throwing me silly winks and kisses across the table and I couldn't stop giggling.I as a person don't giggle so I don't know what t

Do you think I'm like you? For God's sake, my boyfriend is nearby, you pig!" She yells and Hunter starts to move towards them dragging me along with him."Hey, hey, Bloom calm down. He won't try that again" Hunter pleads and Bloom eyes Blake in hatred before answering."He better not if he knows what's good for him" "Will you just let us talk for once?" Blake asks Bloom; anger audible in his voice."We have nothing to talk about. Hunter, do you mind if we switch partners?" She directs the last part towards Hunter and I."Sure" Hunter says letting go of my hand and pecking my forehead."See you later" he murmurs just before Bloom storms off making me follow her.We walk in silence for a while with her lost in thoughts but when I hear her sniffling, I decide to try to talk to her."Are you okay?"
