(Akira’s POV)

.

I froze after hearing a stranger calling me by my real name. Melina Cage.

They knew me. That would mean someone got to Kingsley before we did.

My brain spiraled into a fog. Not knowing what happened next.

The voices around me sounded muffled without me knowing what they were saying.

I could hear Sebastian calling me. I could hear Charles too. But my mind could not process what they said to me. It was as if I was pushed into a void where I stood alone.

“I have a message for you. Your days end now” that stranger said to me. I looked into his eyes as his eyes looked into mine.

I understood why he came to me. He was an assassin. One of those who were looking for me for the past eight years.

Seeing the gun pointed on my forehead, I knew my days would end. And I had failed.

I held my breath and swallowed my saliva. Still, not being able to move a muscle.

The only thing in my head was the image of my son. My little Samuel’s cute little face smiling at me. I had to break a pro

    (Akira’s POV).I just wanted to be alone, but Sebastian had always been a dominant man who wanted things to be going his way. Knowing he would not let my hand go, I sighed and rolled my eyes, “Say whatever you want to say and leave me alone”“Akira, I never meant to say you meant nothing to me. You are the one invading my mind before I sleep and when I wake up. Being apart from you for the past couple of months was not easy for me. I don’t know what I’m feeling right now, Akira. But I’m surely happy to see you again”“Sebastian, I’m with Charles now”“The man who wants to kill you? You do know that his men are also hired to kill Melina Cage. He cannot be trusted, Akira. He is using you to get to Melina Cage”“Please, say no more” I tried so hard to hold back my tears. It was my tears of knowing what he just said might be true. And the truth hurts.He moved closer to me and held my hand with both of his hands. That simple gesture calmed my racing heart. I did not realise he still had

He had assured me everything was in place for me to exit my world of Akira West. That would be after I do the closing speech for Virtus Group’s defamation case.Akira West would disappear for a couple of months on sabbatical leave and then Melina Cage would appear. Using our allies from Henry’s powerful contacts, I would then be ready to resume my old life as the lost heiress of Cage Industries.

He said I looked like an angel in his dreams.I smiled at that thought as I walked

    (Akira’s POV).I sat straight with my head held up in confidence. Not even once I had the courage to look at Sebastian’s face. He was seated next to Westin on his right, where I had chosen to sit on Westin’s left.At times, he sent me notes but none was relevant to the case. I had ignored them all as I did not want to mix personal matters with business.As it was my turn to give my closing speech, Westin whispered to me, “Good luck, Akira. No matter what happens today, you still did good, and we shall keep on fighting. Also, please stop ignoring my cousin, he looks like sh*t. I think he is in love with you”I sighed and stood up to deliver my script.“May it please the Court and members of the jury”I cleared my throat and calmed myself. Why must that imbecile Westin ruin my concentration!Urgh, that man was impossible. He was the cause of all these headaches. If only he had not hurt the daughter of Bill Axel, things would not have been a catastrophe to his company.And knowing he ha

    (Akira’s POV).I sat at the very end at the corner of the back passenger seat of his limousine. I could not even look at his face. My eyes were stuck looking outside the window, waiting for the right moment to open the damn door and get out.I could not breathe properly. The longer I was in his car, the faster the air in my lungs seemed to be closing in to suffocate me. I closed my eyes, trying my best to calm my breathing.“Akira”“Shut up. Just, shut up”I opened my eyes and looked away, not wanting to see him, and definitely not wanting to talk to him. Mostly, due to me not knowing what to say.How did he find out about me being Samuel’s mother? I was careful. Henry and I had planned it all to perfection, not wanting anyone to know that Samuel was my son.Where did I go wrong?My mind spiraled on how I needed to explain to Sebastian in a way that would not jeopardise my plans to get my son back. I could not lose my son. My baby boy was my whole world.If Sebastian knew I was Melin

    (Sebastian’s POV).“DRIVE! FASTER!” I shouted at my driver not caring we were on a busy highway. “Get Kwan”I held her tight in my arms and kissed her forehead, “Wake up, Akira. Please, hear me”“I got Dr Kwan on the phone. What now? Hey, you need to take her to the Hospital” Lennox said to me and passed me his phone.“Kwan, get to my penthouse. No, the other house. Akira is shot. Come, discreetly” I ended the call and instructed my driver to send us to my penthouse where I rarely go to. Unless, to bring in women for pleasure. It was my luxurious looking bachelor pad I bought even before I found out I had a son.And since I met Akira, I have not been to that place. And what was worse was my ability to get my d*ck hard for any other woman than Akira! She was the only one my body craved for.“Call Mary to get the place ready. Tell her, Code Blue” I instructed Lennox to call my trusted housekeeper Mary to keep the place secure. She would know well how to keep it a secret about my affair

    (Sebastian’s POV).I sat on the sofa in the lounge area and sighed. “He is not answering my calls. Something is not right”Lennox poured me a drink and sat in front of me. He let out a loud burping sound after the heavy lunch we had, “Excuse me. Mary really knows how to feed a man”“I only hire the best” I emptied the content of my drink and checked on the time of my watch, “It has been almost five hours, she is still not awake. I’m going to check on her”“Hey, man. Just chill. Kwan said he’ll inform us once she is stable. Let him do his work up there in the room” Lennox was right, but I could not focus on anything else until I was made assured that Akira would be fine.“Dr Kwan is a capable man. She’ll be fine” he took his phone out from the pocket and made a call to someone while speaking in the language of the Amberose City.While he was on the call, I sat back on the sofa and recalled the last hectic hours we had to get Akira treated.

A luxurious scenery built for a rich family.In the middle of it all was a glasshouse constructed with panes of modern glasses that had allowed natural lights into the building. An antique structure that the Cage family was proud of.Surrounded by nature, the glasshouse was calming place to be and situated far away from the main building. A good place for a hideout from the public. Definitely a good place to hide someone.“This is a bad idea, Suzanne” her mother, Sandy Jones said while peeping at the glass walls ensuring no one would come in at the large glasshouse.“No one comes here except for Grandpa. And he is out there somewhere with Melina. This is the best place to hide this man, Mom” Suzanne walked towards a man who was seen tied to a chair. His mouth and eyes covered with a cloth. Unconscious.“He is going to wake up. Then, he is going t

You were the one who got engaged with Suzanne for many years. I always wondered why you kept her that long”“For my son”“Really? Your son huh?” he said in a mocking tone, “Did you sleep with Suzanne?”I refused to answer that. It was a long time go since I last touched Suzanne. I was drunk and that sex was something I could not recall much. A decision I had regretted for ever to meet Suzanne Cage.“Kimberly, what are you doing here?” I heard Lennox whispered and turned to his side facing Kimberly.“How do you think I find out your friend Bodhi is here? I don’t know what is going on here. But Bodhi is also my friend. I’m here for him and you, Sebastian. Why have you been avoiding me?”“Go home, Kim. I don’t have time for this.

They loved him and I loved him more each day, with my whole heart.“Honey, I kind of miss our children”“Sebastian..” I laughed softly and rested my head on his shoulders, “They are just away for less than two hours. Let’s spend tonight, for us”He smiled and kissed my head before both of us looked up to the sky watching over the starry night. The night was calming with cool breeze brushing my cheeks. I sighed as I wrapped my arms around his waist, loving his scent, “Do you think your parents can handle our children? The girls are quite a lot to deal with. They will drive Donna insane. Remember what they did to her the last time?”“You mean when they used her lipsticks to draw on her walls?” Sebastian chuckled and brought me closer in his embrace, “Don’t worry, Honey. My father is there watching over them. And my sister is t

I lost focused and almost tripped down to the floor.Sebastian caught my arm and held me close to his body, “I got you, Honey. It is going to be alright. Look at me, Honey. Look at me”I blinked my eyes before my vision was focused on his face. I smiled seeing he was alright, “He missed”The smile on his face was not the usual ones I see on him. There was something wrong.“Honey, I want you to run. Don’t look back. Keep running”I shook my head and held his hand. It was then I felt something wet on my palm. Blood!“Sebastian, you got s-shot! No! No!” I held his body close to mine in a reflex to protect him against harm.“Sebastian, that was just a warning shot. The next one will be the one that will end your f*cking life!” It was Charles’ threatening words. I turned to face him and stood in

    (Author’s POV).Kimberly sighed in annoyance and faced Charles, “Can’t you see I’m busy? I’m looking for my soulmate. He is hiding somewhere. Sebastian loves to play games when we were younger. I’ll tell you a secret”She tiptoed and whispered to Charles, “I’m a very good seeker. I know he is hiding behind that rock. I’m just waiting for him to come out”“You are insane, do you realise that?”Kimberly laughed and patted Charles chest teasingly, “It takes one crazy person to know another. But I wonder, who is crazier? You do realise your plan to kidnap a pregnant woman with a child is a stupid plan. No offense”“And your plan to make Sebastian falls in love with you is just a dream that would never come true” Charles smirked at Kimberly and looked at the rock formation where Kimberly said Sebastian was probably hiding, “As for me, Akira loves me. I just need her to be brave to take a leap of faith with me. She is just afraid, but I will make her realise that her love for me is still t

    (Akira’s POV).I smiled while hearing the voice I had missed so much. Tears fell on my cheeks, almost making me choke from them, “My baby. How are you? Where are you? Are you hurt?”“Mommy, where are you? Are you coming to get me?”“Baby, I’m coming to you. It is not going to be long. Are you alright? Did she hurt you?”I took a glance at Charles and smiled of happiness being able to hear my son’s voice again. He smiled back at me and stopped the car at the traffic light that was turning red. Lifting his fingers, he wiped my tears away as I continued talking to my son.For a moment, I was touched by his kindness and love for me. But I knew things were not going to be well for us. My love was for Sebastian, and I could not wait to see him safe again.“Sammy, where is Daddy? Is he with you?” My words were obviously not to Charles liking. He ran his fingers across his hair before he calmly continued driving.“I don’t know, Mommy. Daddy asked me to run as fast as I can, away from Kimberl

I know you will come for me” Samuel’s excitement to see his father again had made him forget that they still had Kimberly as the problem, somewhere in the house.“Sammy, we need to be quiet” Sebastian whispered to his son with a smile of content. He was relieved to see his son not physically injured. But frowned seeing his shirt was a little torn, “Are you alright? Did Kim hurt you?”The boy walked closer to his father and whispered, “I think Kimberly is not well, Daddy. She is acting weird. Is Mommy alright, Daddy? Kimberly said you need to go away with Mommy because Mommy is not well”Sebastian exhaled his breath shakily, controlling his heightened anger on Kimberly. She had fed his son with lies. “Mommy is fine, Sammy. I need you to be brave. I need you to run as fast as you can. I think I know this place. There should be houses nearby. It is going to be a little scary out there, but I need you to be brave and call for help”“I’m not leaving y

Not again.“You are playing hard to get, Bastian. I can go on and make you hard for me” she teased with her tongue licking the top of my hardness. She was not going to give up and I was losing her dangerous game.I tried hard to let the rope tied on my hand loosen up. My efforts were just making my wrist felt pain and I could guess they were already bleeding.Kimberly stood up and moved her body in a seductive way. I did not know what suddenly happened to me. My sight was getting blurry and my eyelids heavy. “What did you do to me, Kim?”“I did not do anything. But I’m not sure if the men I hired earlier did something to you” she smiled and slowly lowered her dress to her waist showing her nake

I know you. Free your mind and remember those days when we were so happy together” she blew her warm breath in my ears as her hand touched my body, slowly unbuttoning my shirt. “Let loose. Let me satisfy your desire”She moaned as she placed her hand under my shirt and caressed my chest. I took a deep breath to calm my breathing not wanting to lose to her touch. “Oh, Bastian. I miss this. Smile for me”My hands were tied behind the chair that I was seated. I could not move as she sat on my lap, moving her body on my legs.
