What is that?

Is it really the staff who are walking around?

And because of their heavy steps, it's really hard to think that it was just a ghost roaming around. I feel like they are really doing that on purpose or they don't know someone is sleeping here since the whole resort is not open now?

I decided to get up after hearing those and went near the door but I never opened it. I took a glance at Haria who is in a deep sleep now. I guess she will not wake up until later when she gets enough of it. I leaned my head on the door and put my ears on the door to hear those people.

"What are you planning to do?" Someone asked, and it's a voice of a girl. So they are really walking around at this hour. I sighed and continued listening to them.

"I need to do what he said, or else we will get both in danger." This time it's a boy who answered her question.

"I am begging you to stop this, you will get in big trouble if you don't. You know him right? He can easily kill you with his bare hands, pl

    I can't breathe, why does it always need to happen to me? And now I am with the other two people, Haria and Gray, who are supposed to have peace in their lives. Is it really the cost of getting closer to you, Giovanni?I gulped while I was on my way to the room, the voices I was hearing were already gone. They are gone to plot their plan. I wish the two guys out there are safe, but I am more worried about Haria who is with me. She will go insane when she knows that the steps she heard last night are not just the steps of a normal person, but a person who wants to kill her.What did I do wrong to always experience this kind of fear in my heart? I blew the air I was hoping for back and looked for my phone. Even so, I still need to call Giovanni and tell him what's happening. I don't want anyone to get hurt. And I am not sure if all the staff here had the same intentions to kill and hurt us, or if it's just the two people talking earlier.When I finally found my phone, I looked for his nu

    I was wishing for my death to be so fast so I can not feel it anymore. I want to shout but this person is covering my mouth, and it's giving me pain. He is also holding both of my hands for me not to hit him. I think it's my time. I need to accept that I am no longer living in this world in a few minutes. I kept my eyes closed, tears falling down. "What are you doing?" My mind started to go insane when I heard his voice. I opened my eyes and saw his eyes looking intently at me. "Don't shout," he said and started taking his hands off my mouth. I can't tell anything, my knees were trembling in fear. I almost lost balance but he felt it right away and held my waist to support me, making me closer to him. I gulped and my chest started to be loud when I felt his breath. I stare at his eyes, he is real, he is alive. He looked down on my hands and saw the metal stick I was holding, he gently touched it and took it away from me. But I still need that, the person who is trying to kill us is

    After a few more minutes, he finally let me go and then started walking away. What just happened?This man is really unbelievable, I don't know what is in his mind. No one can tell that clearly. And because I can't react fast, I just stood there until I saw him in front of the VIP room, he was about to open the door when he waved his hands at me, still not turning his head and finally went inside.Huh? Because of spacing out, I almost forgot about the man I am trying to run away from earlier. I hurried myself and ran away from that part and went back to the room where Haria was. Once I was inside, I immediately locked the door and looked for Haria. She is not on the couch anymore. Not on the couch! I ran towards the room but she's not there either so I looked in the kitchen. I was about to get hysterical thinking that she might get caught by those people when I heard the splash of the water inside the bathroom."Ariadne? Are you back?" I sighed when she called my name, I know she's in

  • Billionaire's Desire   CHAPTER 47: The Only One

    I think it was the most embarrassing thing that happened in my life, Giovanni is really something I can't explain and that attitude of his is one of the reasons why I am hating that man. He doesn't feel embarrassment towards other people because of what he was doing. I was there, standing and can even move but he didn't even take his eyes away from me. Seriously, why is he doing that? I didn't feel comfortable about it earlier and he doesn't even feel it. I stomped my feet on the ground and messed up my hair. I tried my best to run from there to here to save myself, but it's too late since he already saw some part of me. Well, I did yesterday but this is not the same as wearing a swimsuit on the beach, I am just wearing a freaking towel without even undergarments. I sighed, how can I face him again? I know he is still there in the living room. But, why do I need to get shy if it was his fault in the first place? I am not informed that he will go here to see us. After what he did ear

    I woke up to the sound of my alarm clock. I used to have an alarm since I was supposed to have work today but because we are still here and the meeting will just start today, I need to standby for Giovanni's order.I sighed when the first thing I thought happened to me last night. What about the people who want to hurt us? Will they go on with their plans today? I hope Giovanni already takes action for this, or did he even know what's happening?Well, whatever it is, I need to be cautious of my surroundings and never lose sight of the people around me. Someone might attack us during the day.I looked for a sharp thing in this room and saw the scissors, I stood up and took it then hid it inside my pocket. I can use this later for self defense.After looking myself in the mirror, if I still look like a human, I decided to go outside to see if he is still here but it seems like he is already out of wherever he was.When I reached the kitchen, I saw Haria doing something. She was not looki

    "So, what's our plan for today? I think the cleaning will not last longer so we can go outside after an hour or two, I am just waiting for Gray's call. He said he will call me when it's all set, we should do something while they are in a meeting. Right?" Haria asked me while we are having our breakfast. My eyes did not lose sight on those gummy bears Haria put above the table. I know that is not just a gummy bear but there is more than that I can't explain. He told her not to forget to eat those, so there is something on it and Giovanni won't just give us something that doesn't mean anything. And my head is already aching just by thinking about those innocent gummy bears above the table.My head turned to Haria and looked at her when I heard her question. I guess she doesn't have an idea what is happening outside now, and it's better for her not to know about it, not yet. I am sure Gray will definitely tell her about that thing when it's done, so she doesn't have anything to worry afte

    "Argh. I want to go outside," Haria after two hours finally complained about waiting for them to call. It's been two hours but they aren't still telling us something. Even Giovanni did not text me."Let's wait for another hour," I told her. I won't let her go outside too. She lay in her bed and took her phone and her headphones and started scrolling down on it. "Fine."I decided to go outside the room to go to the kitchen and drink something, but after doing so, I walked towards the door. I put my ears on it to hear what's happening outside but I can't hear anything, it seems so quiet. Where are they now? Did the meeting start?I sighed and was about to take my ears off when I heard footsteps, but unlike earlier, it's not a heavy step. It's like the person was just walking around without an intent to scare someone. The steps suddenly stopped and I don't know what it is doing now. I just waited for it to start moving again, but it did not.I jumped in nervousness when someone knocked o

    "I did not know that you two are friends. Thanks to that, I don't need to please this man a little more than I should." Gray's father joked while we were sitting around the table. Gray laughed at his Dad, Uncle Garmon."Dad, I didn't even know at first that you would be meeting him." Gray told him.Uncle Garmon laughed and poured wine on his glass. His eyes then landed at me. "Ariadne, beautiful lady. How come you don't have a lover yet?" He asked. I already met Uncle a few times and he is always asking me that question, and the answer is always the same too."I still don't have time for that, Uncle." I told him. I really don't have one since I still need to focus on myself and building my career. I still have time, there is no need to rush though. I was always being asked the same question, they can't believe that I don't have a boyfriend or when I said I never had one. I am still pure and innocent at those kinds of things and if I will, I need to make sure that the man I will be with

    "Stop imagining things," Nix said. Alyana gave him a frown. It's been 30 minutes since they last talked to each other, and they were already in the living area watching movies. After she asked the question a while ago, Nix just left her standing there."You are creepy," she said to Nix."What?""You are suddenly saying something there, it's creepy." Alyana took the blanket to cover herself."Are you saying your boss is creepy?" Nix asked, making Alyana immediately look at him."No sir," she quickly said and focused herself on what they were watching. She then heard Nix sighed beside her so she took a glance at him.'Is he sleepy? Or he just really had many problems in life?'' she thought."Do you like what you are seeing?" Nix asked her, she didn't realize that she's already staring at his face. "No sir," she said, however, it made Nix glare at her. How dare she say that to her boss. "Really?" Nix asked and slowly went near her. She closes her eyes, and shakes her head."No sir."Ni

    "I already told you, Pebble is just my friend." A man who was in a tuxedo said while entering the office. He looked at the two people inside the room and smiled at them before putting the phone beside his ear again. "I will just call you later baby, don't forget to wear the dress I bought you for tonight. Yes, yes I will surely be early so be prepared," he added while grinning."Stop talking about your women when you are already in my office." Nix straightly said."Whoa, whoa, you are so hot headed. What happened to you bro? I just got back from seeing those ugly faces and you will welcome me with that attitude? How could you?" Zach, who had just entered the room, said while putting down the suitcase he was holding. "The files." Nix lends his hand to him, waiting for something nice he could give. Zach smirked at him and took something in the case, then gave him the papers he was asking. Zach's attention diverted to the girl who was busy scanning some papers and poked her using the pe

    "He hasn't woken up yet? Is what happened to him really that horrible that he hasn't woken up until now?" Jake inquired as they entered the room where the man they had discovered in the woods the day before lay. It's also been two days since they discovered this man unconscious, and he hasn't awoken yet. His wounds have healed, and he is recovering slowly."It seems that the bed is too soft so he just chose to sleep for a long time rather than answer the questions we prepared for him." Hunter was still joking while reading a book. He grinned and looked at everyone in the room. Their boss' three daughters are complete. Steel is also there, taking a glimpse at Ivory when he has the opportunity.'Tsk. It's really obvious if this man likes a woman, but he is so afraid to face Ivy's blow. Maybe, Ivy doesn't want that kind of man like him so until now she's still refusing his love. He is strong outside however, he's really a coward. If I were a woman I wouldn't even want to be with him too,

    Andrius smirked as he saw his daughters return from their search for their belongings. He realizes they are perplexed by what he is doing, but he believes it will benefit his girls in the future. He had considered taking them to the location they desired while they were still in his office, but after hearing the plan, he decided a thing that he was the only one who knew and that was to put them to the test.Vanessa sat next to him on a rock, breathless and barely able to communicate due to exhaustion. Next to her are Andrius' other two daughters, whose expressions now demand an explanation."We knew it, but why did you keep it hidden?" Ashleigh said to Andrius, who chuckled when he heard it."Dear daughters," he said, motioning them to sit on the grass first, which they did. "I am curious to see if you will return once you realize I am the one who is behind it, but I notice you still tried to find it on your own," Andrius explained. Despite their confusion, the triplets pay attention

    "Try to hurt him more and I will rip your head out of your body." Hunter, even though he is in pain, still heard what Ashleigh said. Her eyes glaring at the man holding Hunter's neck. "Really? You will do that?" The tension between all of them began to rise more as he tightened it, causing Hunter to spit some blood on his mouth. "S-Stop…" he can't even speak properly, his eyes began to wet and his vision was now a bit blurry. "I-I can't b-breathe!" He tried to yell but it seemed like his voice was now out of his control. Demon, it's the true demon, he thought. He is now under the strength of a ruthless demon in the place."Your fear, ugh. I can feel it, I know you are born for me. Your soul, I want it mine. You are making me stronger, I think I need to thank you for that."One thing he is not sure about is when he saw his teeth turning into an odd one. The structure of his face started changing too. That was the thing that most terrified Hunter more. One more tight grip, he can b

    I hope they will find Echo's mother.My attention got diverted when I heard a knock from the door. It quickly opened and there I saw my sisters faces, along with Steel and Hunter, but I am confused why Dominus isn't with them, also as Jake but that person can sometimes be busy."Are you feeling well? Dr. Nigel already told us what the problem is with you too." Ashleigh asked me once they went inside, she sat beside me while looking at Echo. "I am just fine. I want to go with you on finding his mother but Dr. Nigel told me not to. He has only 2 days and the poison will definitely take his life." She was nodding her head when she took my hand and held it. I saw a small hole in it, maybe it's from the needle they used when she got taken some blood from her body to give to me. "Don't worry, we will do our best to find her. All you need to do now is to rest and be safe. Also, follow all what Nigel will tell you. It's for your own good, understand?" I chuckled because of it. She is now a

    "He woke up earlier and he was looking for you, especially his mother but it didn't last for five minutes and he slept again. There is something we need to take out of his skin. It needs an operation, but we can't do that here. We need his parents to take responsibility." Dr. Nigel said to me once I reached the medical department, Dominus guided me to one of the rooms where Echo was admitted, after that he left the room, saying that he will look for Hunter. I just let him though, I don't have a reason not to.Echo is still unconscious, I don't know what's happening to him and needs Dr. Nigel's explanation."And I found out this." He showed me the result of something, then there I saw my name. Why is my name here? I didn't do any tests for me, I can't remember it."What does this mean?" I asked, confused by what he was trying to say to me about the results. He sighed before telling me the thing I didn't expect."Your blood contains a poison, same as Echo but he is more likely to lead a

All of them need to be tested first before letting them go, Sir Andrius told us that those who don't have families will be given a shelter.I adore him that much. The help doesn't end there. He still cares for the women and he wants them to somehow forget what happened to them. I also want that to happen. I am worried about their situation, I already experienced things similar to them. The time when I thought there would never be sunlight to light my world again, but here I am.I saw the triplets together with Jake and Steel, contacting those people who might help us. I can't help but to be glad looking at them, just by observing what they are doing. I am already getting satisfied with the actions. They are true leaders.I sighed and turned my gaze at Hunter.

    An unfamiliar voice asked behind us. I decided not to turn around as I can feel a threat in their presence. It was that person, or maybe them whom I felt earlier. And I am sure they are like me. "Oh, the three guards. We saw each other again." Vanessa said in response to them. Did they know those guys? How and where? Maybe because they are part of this organization, their opponent. But do they know their real identity?"It's you." One of them spoke, he had a deep voice compared to the one who asked first. "I won't forget what you did to us the first time we met each other. However, it's your lucky day since we aren't here to fight any Dark Phoenix but we will promise to make you pay for what you have done when we see each other again." He continued, I kept my back to them. If I show my face, will they know or recognize me? I guess not but I need to be sure. I know there are many people hunting me now. They need to take me back to that place. But I don't want that to happen, so I need
