Aidan povThe movie was going well, Fiona looked like she was enjoying herself but I wasn't. Candice's words were utterly bothersome and making me worried.Something was definitely off.I wasn't scared anymore for Houston's accident because regardless of his current situation, summing everything off just made it more suspicious... More unexpected... Odd.Honestly, I didn't even know how to explain how I felt about all this.Checking my wristwatch, I grimaced seeing that it was already 30 minutes to midnight. I had to leave to Candice's house fast.Standing up, I took a breath and looked Fiona who followed my movement with her wide eyes."What's going on?" She asked curiously. "You seemed lost and it's obvious that you created all this to distract me.""Its that obvious huh?" I asked forcing a smile."Aiden?" She asked looking worried, staring at me as if she could see me clearly."I have to go out for something urgent, I'll be back soon, do not worry."I noticed a small frown on her f
Fiona's POVThe confusion was pushed to the back of my mind as I continued to watch the movie. It was so unlike of Aidan to be abrupt and vague. But I did not want to doubt him, because doubting him will only lead to question that'll probably do us no good. I glanced at the table, reaching for the punch. Gosh, the hot buns has been wobbled down by someone. Someone that was not me. Hehe.I fluffed the pillows and placed it behind me, resting my back on it. The sound of my phone ringing filled the whole room and startled me out of my wits. I picked it up beside me and glanced at the screen to see who the caller was. My eyes bulged out to an impossible the degree and my jaw fell slack. My heart took on a race and begin to pound painfully in my chest. Houston?? Was that really him? For a minute I thought I was actually dreaming."Hello?" I said in a small voice. I don't want to hope, I don't want to hope."Fiona? How are you?" His voice boomed from the phone. Oh my god! Oh my god!
Author povAiden arrived home, his chest was heaving, his heart racing and pounding erratically, his hands trembling in complete horror."Fiona!" He screamed, going to every corner of the house and all the rooms in search for her but there was no sign of her.He had seen that her car was no outside but he was still not convince. He had a little hope even though he knew all hope was gone at the moment for him."Fiona!" His life was crumbling and he rushed back out, hopped in his car and began to call every police, military personnel that he knew to inform them that his wife was missing.With a heavy mind and racing heart, he rushed to the hospital and stormed into Houston's ward even when the nurses tried to stop him.The bed was empty.He gritted his teeth, screaming out loud in anger but suddenly, his phone rang and he moved his gaze to his phone to see that it was Fiona's phone. Before he picked up the call, he triggered the gos tracker."Fiona?!" He called with hope in his voice b
Author pov*Two weeks later*Seated in his office, his hair haggard, his eyes bloodshot from lack of sleep and excessive drinking, Aiden stared at his laptop with a blank expression. Two weeks had passed since Fiona's disappearance and those two weeks had been hell for Aiden who has been temperamental, depressed and extremely unstable. He had not visited the office for those while until his father decided to intervene and force him to go to the office due to an urgent international meeting that Aiden ended up cancelling out of anger.He had more important thing to do and that was to look for his wife who had been missing for two weeks.The police and all of his sources were searching all over but the only lead they had gotten was a CCTV camera of the truck hitting Fiona's car in a angle that they couldn't see the driver's face nor could they see the trucks plate number.Aiden's hands trembled as he kept clicking on the mouse to rewatched the video that sent worry and anger to his hea
Fiona povI ate the porridge slowly, feeling extremely unconscious with him watching me like a hawk. His eyes widened at my every light slurp and his lips parted when I swallowed.Gosh! I slammed the bowl on the table, sending him a glare that unfortunately elicited a smile from him."When did you get so sick?" I growled."Right from the moment I realised that my love for you is unrequited." He said bluntly, relaxing his back against the chair.I rolled my eyes. "Why don't you fuck off knowing that I'll never love you?" I had to ask and honestly, I have been asking him this for a while now."Because I like doing things the hard way." Houston chuckled.I forced a smile. "You think you're so cool huh? You gabe ruined a lot Houston. I don't even see you as a brother anymore. You are just a stranger to kidnapped me!" I screamed and he frowned."Do you want more than just your legs to be broken?" He suddenly asked and I stiffened, glaring at him murderously.He smiled, stood up and walked
Aiden's POVThe harsh ray of the sun was set overhead and the cruel heat sent a prickle of sweat down my spine. I leaned against the pole, waiting quite impatiently for my car. My gaze swept around the luxurious buildings, huge and looming in distance. My eyes was simply roaming around but could not see anything. I badly needed to know where Fiona was.The flight has been silent and I actually thought that everything would be prepared for me as soon as I would arrive but no! Everything was going so wrong for me that there wasn't even a car present at the airplane hanger.What did they tell me? Traffic?!There was silence as they all knew that I was boiling in rage.The loud honk of a car drew me out of my dangerous reverie and I unclenched my knuckles. Breathing in angrily, I swung the sunglasses from my hair into my face and walked briskly towards the car ignoring the loud buss and shine of the city as well as the group of body guards all dressed in black suits standing around me.
Fiona's POVI let out a low groan as I tried to stand up on my own. However, I ended falling against the bed and hurriedly wiped away curious lone tears that dropped down my face. "This is not the time for tears." I mumbled to myself as I wiped the few other droplet of tears. To be honest, I was still in disbelief that Houston could do something like this... To keep me like this... To make sure to put me in a state that I had to use crutches. I was baffled. This was a nightmare. He kept talking about love, it irked me. I sighed deeply and managed to raised myself to sit comfortably on the bed but just I let out a deep sigh to loosen my heavy chest, the door flung open and he swayed in precariously. Was it too bad to pray that he should fall and smash his head in the process? /I gripped the bedsheet protectively and glared at him murderously."So cute." He chuckled, a low sound that sent my hair standing on the end. "Now now, who do we have here?" He peered down at me. My body
Houston's POVI could hear a distant howling voice in my left ear, where Fiona's hand had done a great job of whacking. It hurt badly too. Rubbing my ear, I ran down the stairs, heading to the corridor with my eyes wide. I had become sober at just her first hit to my cheek. She was strong."Anything you need boss?" My manservant rushed at my feet. I sighed frustratedly and stopped to spit out the blood from my mouth into the little basin. Fiona had truly done a good job.She was my feisty little one."Yes. Get me a doctor." I told him commandingly while rubbing my sore cheek . "Yes sir." He said with a respectful nod then walked away. Turning to the left corridor where my office was located, I punched in the code and entered the room. It was a cozy little room, painted blue.My gaze swept to the table where piles of file laid unopen on the table. Scoffing, I walked towards the shelf, grabbed a whiskey and poured it into a crystal glass. "Oh..." I clicked my tongue as I held t
