Chapter ninety six(60/40 chance)

Sapphire's Point Of View:

I remained still, trying to not process what he said but I had already processed it, I was only finding it challenging to digest it and comprehend properly.

What did he just say? My Tyler has lost his memory? So he doesn't remember me anymore? He doesn't remember who the culprit was anymore? He doesn't remember anything? Or what?!

No, there's no way this is possible.

I still remained immobile, not blinking as tears clouded my vision, stinging my eyes as they threatened to spill.

There was this silent prayer I said in my mind for him to just laugh out loud and smack me on my shoulder gently then tell me it's a prank or a silly joke, but his face didn't seem like it was fake.

His face was heavy with pity and regret.

I still didn't blink my eyes and finally, the tears spilled.

The only part of my body that moved was my heart and I didn't know why. I didn't know why it didn't just stop beating and let me get buried at this moment.

    Chapter one(the night stand) Sapphire's Point Of View: “Drink up, Girl. It's my birthday!" Tiara, my best friend, shouted, her voice barely heard as the music was blasting from the speakers loudly. I nodded, clashing my glass against hers. I gulped it before letting out a sigh as it burned down my throat. She poured me another shot and was pouring hers when she immediately halted. She beat my arm repeatedly as her gaze was fixed behind me, her jaw hanging in the air. I slapped her hand off me before turning my neck, only to see three guys stepping in. They were triplets and I needn't lie, they were absolutely hot but not just my type. They seemed like the arrogant type which was exactly what I hated. “Oh. My. God!" Tiara squealed, getting a groan from me. I returned my gaze back to her, rolling my eyes. "Don't tell me you're drooling over these ones again. You literally crush on every single guy you set your eyes on! Know your worth and stop chasing these roaches!” I shou

I was at Tiara's birthday party. I lodged into the hotel last night since it was too late to return home. But I'm heading home, I stopped to get something on my way home.”I lied again."Sure. I'll be waiting.” He responded."No, no. You actually don't have to wait for me. I'll take quite a long time before I return. Besides, you should be at work, shouldn't you?”,“Oh. Okay then, see you tonight, okay? And get home safe, your mum is worried sick.” He said."Sure. No problem. Thank you.”,"Bye. Love you.”.I blushed, "I love you more.”.Did I really?

I planned on having another round with her today but she left. Last night was amazing, that bitch wasn't so skilled but she made me feel what really great, the way I never felt with other ladies probably because this was my first time not using a condom. She seemed to be drunk last night which was an extra bonus for me, I did things to her, things that made me feel guilty of attempted murder. My phone rang as I got into my car. “Drive," I ordered the chauffeur who nodded before starting the engine. I answered the call. “Hey, Kai.". He replied, “Hey. Meet me at that popular bar. What's it called? Yeah, liquor bar.”. "It's too early to be at the bar.”. “I know you're mad at me. But just meet me there,”he said before ending the call. "Liquor bar.”I said to my chauffeur.

My heart ran wild, my grasp tightening on my bag as I tried looking away but I couldn't for some reason. We were intertwined.“Sit." He ordered, stretching out his hand to the seat across his. I nodded, flashing him a smile, “thank you, sir." I spoke so nicely that I couldn't help but wonder if it was truly me who spoke. The Sapphire I knew could never speak so nicely to a random man, especially one who I slept with.“Can we meet tonight?” He asked. His questions had my heart thumping hard against my ribcage. I began to stutter.“I-i- s-sure. Of course, I'll b-be here tonight.” I replied."No, no, not here. I mean in that same hotel.” He clarified. I averted his eyes for a while. “Courage, gorgeous.” He repeated those same words he said last night. “You'll be safe." He added.I nodded, "B-but I….”"Perhaps my house will be fine then?”

Things I thought he was joking about.‘I won't stop until you beg, until you cry.’ I remembered his sexy words.I sighed as I got out of the taxi and went into the house. Mum was there in the living room with some snacks and a blanket as she watched the tv.Crap! I thought she wouldn't be home, but how could I have forgotten that she had no job.She noticed me and immediately sprang out of the couch. “We have a threat!” She informed me.“When did I start taking the mafia family seriously?” I asked, laughing as I threw my bag on the couch.She stretched her hand and placed it on my shoulder. “I thought we talked about this.

I placed my hand on his chest, trying to calm him down but he didn't stop.“Calm down. Easy there, sweetie,” I said, rubbing his chest gently as he coughed.His arm began to shake since he was using them to brace his body.“Lay down." I suggested but he seemed as if he was battling with the cough instead so he didn't hear me.I let out a sigh, not knowing what to do to calm him down.His shaking arm collapsed, leaving him to slam his head against the metal design below him.He stopped coughing immediately, lying there immobile.“Are you okay now?" I asked, only to realize his eyes were closed. A gasp escaped my lips as my eyes widened. “Tyler!!" I shouted, gently tapping him but he didn't budge.My hand cupped my mouth. “Oh shit!"

From the way he held them, I could tell he was forcefully taking them and he had probably threatened them beforehand.Oh, my poor kids. They were threatened.I would make sure he pays for this! I should have known he had something to hide when he was glancing at me like a mother fucking freak in the plane.“Sorry!" I shouted, separating a couple and running by without looking back.I still had my gaze planted on my kids.

I squeezed my eyes shut, pain banging through me.The next thing I heard was the door slamming.Then silence followed. I have been left alone to cry and groan in pain. Left alone to sort myself. I could tell sapphire was feeling betrayed but I was the one who was supposed to feel betrayed instead.I lied to her about doing it for the Empire. Even if I was it for the Empire, she wasn't supposed to react this way as she knew our top rule that we don't sell each other out and we will do anything to protect each other at all cost.I understood that she loved that family but she knew the rules. Also, I only lied to her about saving the Empire. I was saving her instead. I was saving her from emotional distress and getting her reputation ruined.~FLASHBACK~“I'm risking five million dollars."

It felt as though I didn't hear him so well.I thought something else happened but I was right, I didn't hear him so well as gunshots floated through the air, overshadowing his whispering voice.I stumbled backwards, my eyes scanning the backdoor as that was where the gunshots came from.I waited patiently, silence prolonging the anticipation as my heart hammered against my ribcage.It took every little fiber of self-control in me to stand there and not tell in frustration.I could hear nothing. Everywhere was dead silent except for my pounding heart and my shallow breath.Just as I expected, the door cracked open, the metal creaks piercing the silence.The door finally swung open, revealing a muscular man with piercing onyx eyes.I took two steps back in fear as I gasped. My blood ran cold whilst the hair at the back of my neck stood to the end, the man's eyes

When he was ready to make things right with me, he would tell me the truth and tell me everything I needed to know.I slammed the door, entering into the car.All that ran through my mind was TYLER.
