Candice POV

In a rather exotic cafe that reverberated with soft classical music, i was seated, casually sitting a cup of hot milk tea. I sighed as the hotness spread calmly inti my body and closed my eyes in content.

I hoped the day was going to end well for me, I really wanted it to end well for me.

Dropping the the cup back on its saucer, I let out a deep sighed that filled with heavy impatience.

"Where on earth is he?" I asked.

I had been waiting for an hour! I should have left in annoyance but I was just to desperate to see him.

Suddenly, I felt a gentle thud on my chai and when I turned I saw Houston who wore a bright endearing smile.

"You're late." I frowned.

"And I apologize." He chuckled and moved to sit on the chair in front of me. "You look beautiful as always."

I scoffed. "You're compliments irks me."

"I do know that you only adore compliments when it's coming out of Aiden." Houston replied maintaining his smirk.

"You two were so close." I murmured, rolling my eyes.

She looked impatient but I think the the tea was giving her inner peace. Beautiful and graceful, Candice was the most heartless and arrogant woman I have ever met.

She was disgusting.An hour passed.I got to my feet and walked towards her chair hitting the back of her chair to let her notice me then say in front of her to ask her about her plans.My thoughts only had then ideas of killing Aiden but she was in love with that asshole which meant that if I wanted her help, I wouldn't afford to kill him or hurt him anyway.

    AidenI woke up with the hope to see Fiona by my side but I was the only one on the bed. Slowly, I placed myself in a sitting position squinting my eyes slowly towards the window, due to the light of day. My eyes trailed around the room. Where was she?Without further think, I got off the bed, wore my pants and hurried out of room all the way to the stairs where my nostrils caught the overwhelmingly aroma of the sizzling food in the kitchen. I walked down the stairs, made my way to the kitchen to see Fiona making scrambled eggs and some beacon but what caught my attention the most was that she was wearing my shirt which almost swallowed her whole.Her hair was ruffled, her face brightened with smiles as she focused on cooking but I knew she was aware that I was present and watching her. She was absolutely adorable. My heart fluttered just the sight of her but the more I stared at her in my shirt, the more I had the urge to pin her on the dinning table and devour her whole. I smiled an

    AIDEN POVI ended up placing her in several positions at every corner and edge of the tub until she couldn't walk again. I had to bath her, dress up and carried her to the room to sleep.There was a hundred percent chance that she wouldn't be able to walk for the whole day. Oops.Walking down the stairs all dress while holding the jacket of my suit, I had my eyes on my phone staring at Houston's phone number. I wanted to call him but I went on to calling my informant first.(Sir.)"Do you have eyes on him?"(Yes sir. He is in popular cafe uptown with Candice.)I was surprised. "Candice?"Those two were together? What were they up to?"Keep your eyes on them, I'll be there soon." I hung up and placed my phone in my pocket and in no time, I was out of the house in my car. While driving, I couldn't focus properly. Was it because Candice and Houston were together? What did this mean? I didn't want Houston to hurt Fiona in any way just because she had rejected him. One could say that I w

    79FionaI woke up feeling sore and staring at the clock, I was shocked to see that it was already six pm."I slept for that long?" I asked in disbelief then groaned as I pushed myself out of the bed to stand of my feet. It wasn't easy to walk as my legs trembled each movement towards the door."Fuck you Aiden!" I screamed and smiled as I breathlessly held onto the handle of the door. At that exact moment, I heard the bell ring and let out an frustrated sigh as I opened the door and managed to compose myself as I made my way down the stairs and towards the door. I opened the door and raised my brows to see Candice smiling at me in a rather unsettlingly way."Why are you here?" I asked obviously not liking her presence."You aren't going to welcome your guest?" Candice asked feigning innocence."You are an unwanted guest Candice." I said to her and wanted to slam the door but she placed her leg at the door making me halt. I wasn't heartless to slam the door on her leg even though I w

I stared at him in embarrassment."You...""Why is there a gun here?" Aiden asked taking the gun that was right above my head, staring at it with curiosity."Oh... Candice..""She wanter to shot you?!" Aiden exclaimed in shock.I sighed. "Can we not talk about her? Please."Aiden smiled at me then put the gun at my lips. "It's not loaded." "What?" I was stunned."But it's not totally useless." Aiden said and my eyebrows rose in astonishment wondering what he meant. A gun that wasn't loaded was obviously useless."It's useless." I retorted, holding his wrist with both hands."It's not." Aiden whispered with a devious smile and pressed the gun against my lips.I gasped. He laughed."What are you doing?

Though I have very little in me right now, I'll do anything for Houston. "Beep beep beep." The machine besides the bed, what was it called?

He would pull through...Mom took my hand in hers patting it softly. I could see the streak of tears on her face as she continued to weep soundlessly. Dad wasn't taking it any better, his face was contorted with pain and his chest rose and fell heavily.The Atmosphere in the room was depressed to say the least.A nurse sauntered in with some array of equipment.

Her mom and Eric's wife Esther were there with her. She went out to show her critiques who sat regally on the chair sipping lemonade. She eyed them dubiously and mouth "really??" With an arched eyebrow. They were only sitting there, enjoying a glass of lemonade and scrolling through the magazine while Fiona was made to endure the prickling and prodding of the stylist. "What do you think??" She asked without much enthusiasm. She felt beautiful but she wanted to hear from them. She gasped, stood up and walked towards her with beaming smiles on their faces."Oh my!
