Olive~

Opening my eyes, I felt his arms holding me tight. Did he keep me like this the whole night?"

Looking at the ceiling, I decided to sneak away! He had found out how sensitive my body was toward him and kept taking advantage of it.

I moved slowly but suddenly he grabbed me harder by the waist and pulled my back closer to him. He was awake!

His head moved up and his eyes met mine. His chin rested on my shoulder.

His serious, haughty expression brought chills to my bones.

"I won't let you leave me. Even if I have to lock you up to protect you, I won't prevent it."

They were not romantic words to bring comfort and relief to my heart but scary menace.

I swallowed the tough pill and decided to question him.

"I can run away! You threatened me not to pry in your business. Won't you live better if I leave? You have Elenore anyway and she is too keen to kill me and have you."

I cracked.

"If she raises a finger on you again, I'll punish her. If you ask me, I'll end her miserable life."

    Edward~My life force always was at the ridge. I had many enemies, an unstable family, and many other reasons.My grandpa chose me as the leader and it enticed their jealousy.Without Olive, my life would reverse to the h*ll it was. Now that I felt and possessed her, it was impossible to let go of her.She left to see her friend without saying farewell. Her sorrow broke my heart.I wasn't sure when I could surprise her with divorce news. Perhaps it could *ssure her about us.I walked into the company and everyone served me with greetings. I could remember their glares the first days I appeared here. Now, they discovered how capable I was to run this place and bring them money.That was what they wanted.Money, prestige, and success. A name to show off with. Besides everything, they must expect me to be strict and ask them to work harder. I could accept no bribe and sneaking excuses.Getting to my office, Raymond came to greet me. His face was a bit down when he got closer."Sir! Mr. M

    Edward~Tobin laughed and wore an excited face."Weren't you begging for a wife?"Tobin remarked it to him. Since I got married he was pleading to have a pretty girlfriend."The other day, he was saying that he got tired of spending nights with prostitutes and wanted a stable life! What happened, got your d*ck impatient again?""You nasty pigs, stop being a d*ck! I just don't want to go to France.""Who is the girl?"I asked, and he shrugged."Would you believe that I didn't ask?"Tobin leaned back and gave him a pitiful look."My poor boy! Her name is Layla!"I raised my brow!"Layla?""Layla Martinez! Her father is the owner of Martinez Group in Vancouver!"I knew who they were. This marriage could give him power. It was beneficial indeed."I heard she is a beautiful blond girl!" Kit brought it up."Indeed, she is! You're the winner lucky *ss."Tobin added.I just looked at them. Accidentally, Olive's best friend had the same name! Could it be the same person?I didn't mention that,

    Edward~It was a rite that my brothers and I used to gather at a dinner party every Sunday night.We were on the seaside highway. One side would meet the sea where the full moon reflected on the surface, and the other side of the road would kiss the black pointy rocks.Simon glanced at the rear mirror."We're being followed!"He discovered when she turned a twist."John uses the same tricks all the time."The cars sped up and suddenly sandwiched us in the middle of the road.I looked further where a cliff was ahead of the road.Guns came out of the windows and raiders opened fire on us.“Should we shoot them?”My bodyguard asked, panicked. He was new to our team and too young to encounter havoc for the first time.“No! There are cameras on this road. If we kill one of them, we will be questioned by law.”Simon struggled to press the brake when another car hit us from behind. They were abused along the road."Simon! You know what to do!"I pointed at the sea. It was the only way to sur

    Edward~John's biggest mistake was that he never gave a sh*t to someone's craving for living this life.Many people are the same! They don't care about you and what you want, whatever suits them is the best, if you come to their path, screw you! They won't be afraid to shove you out brutally. It is how he encouraged himself to kill my parents.Life was vicious, savage, and encomp*ssed with upside-downs that could wreck your bones but still living it and learning was many people's desire.To win it, you have to wear that annoying fake smirk to pretend you are strong until you believe that you are.Upon entering the company, I came across John. It was good timing as I wished.When his eyes spotted me, his face grew pale. The flickering light in his eyes disappeared.My walking stick clicked against the floor. It was chewing his nerves and the irritation sketched on his face."Brother! Why are you surprised to see me?"He must be asking himself how I survived the fall and a m*ssive explo

    Edward~I got back to our room. She was looking at her phone. And the light cast on her sad face. She wasn't in a good mood at all.That image belonged to the past, a very long time ago, and I forgot about it.I didn't feel it necessary to explain to her. I had no idea where the h*ll Maya was now and couldn't care less. She was living a happy life somewhere quiet as she wished to make that choice. She left me when I needed her.They made me the monster I am now."Have you eaten?""I have! Mira makes sure I don't miss any meal."Her face was yet intense. Her voice uttered reluctantly.She picked up her charger. I scanned her from top to toe. She was wearing cute pajamas with sleeping cloud patterns.She moved past me and ignored my whole being there. She did what I hated the most. To be ignored!"Where are you going?""I'll stay in the guestroom!"My eyes widened. I thought she would forgive me.I turned around and grabbed her arm, stopping her from leaving our room.“Stay!”She sighed

    Elenore~I woke up early and waited for my father to leave the house. Checking my forehead, the pain was gone but it had left a brown-greenish bruise."You fu*king *ssh*le! Did you think I would give up on everything that belongs to me if you violated me?"I wore one of my best enticing dresses and put on my make-up, making sure to cover the mark.Going to the living room, my mother came out of the kitchen and flinched."What the h*ll! Elenore, where are you going like this?""To see my friend."“What friend? Do you have one at all?”I turned around and didn't wait for her constant questions. She would dissuade me from leaving the house.Going to the garage, I drove my car out.Olive brainwashed him about me, and I had to clean her sh*t.I was certain Edward had asked his security to stop me. But little did he know I had learned a secret way that only special staff kept the keys.John once gave it to me so I took advantage of the situation.Parking my car in a parking lot, I headed to

    Edward~"Ed, why don't we watch Elenore?"Kit suggested at the end of the line when I sat in the car, and Simon started the engine."Is that what you want?""Crap! Of course, that is! I don't trust a whore like Elenore. You know that I didn't agree with you to marry her. What if she stabbed you before you did? This girl is under the control of John and would not skip any vital chance to earn a position.""She has no guts to hurt me and you know it.""She has the guts to be rewarded. John has promised her something. I can't believe she was sincere in begging you.""The fool and his money are soon parted! Isn't it a good reason for her to betray John?"He sighed and cursed."There you go again to be an optimistic devil! I'm on my idea, just be careful."He hung up, and I smirked. He thought I would be seduced soon or later, but he had no clue what a precious situation we had achieved.John would realize his loving girlfriend was cheating on her. The angrier he would become, the easier t

    Olive~I replaced my sister in her marriage to save my father, believing that it would be easy to carry on for a while but it was the third time I faced death.Perhaps my father was right, and I should have left him behind to start a new life. But if I did, soon the news of losing him could make me fall on my knees."Pull yourself back!"When I was startled and surrendered to my fate to be grilled right there, his arms wrapped around my waist."Olive! Can you hear me?"His swift maneuver rescued me from a bullet that broke the vase on the table and shattered it to pieces.He sheltered me with his body, taking cover behind a wall and taking out his gun.With every bullet he shot, my body flinched between his arms. Grabbing my ears, my heart almost hopped into my mouth."They are going to kill us!"I stammered.I couldn't get used to being attacked by guns. The gift he just offered me was burning and exploded.It reminded me of the first time Elenore beat me harshly, tore my lips to ble

    Olive~The next day, I woke up early and took a shower with Edward. When he was drying my hair with the towel, I grabbed his hand and asked him to sit down."What do you think, should I go and see her?"He shrugged, "If you ask my opinion, they were cruel to you."He paused and kissed my knuckles, "But if you don't see her now, it remains your biggest regret. You'll be thinking about it constantly."I nodded, "Would you come with me?""Of course, you are not in a situation to be alone."I cupped his face and kissed him as hard as I could. As we parted, he smiled, "Then we should get ready now. Give me that *ssh*le's number. I'll call him."I laughed! Was he talking about Arvin? He wasn't a bad person, poor guy.Giving him the phone number, I got dressed and we were ready to leave when Mira caught us in the living room."What about your breakfast?"Mira asked us."We will eat outside!"Ed replied and we got out. An hour later, we met Arvin in front of the hospital."She had a bad night

    Kit~I took the last sip of my drink and tapped on Tobin's shoulder."Party is over for us. Time to give some lessons to John!"I peeked at John who was talking to a few of his friends. He was entirely distracted when I approached Elenore.Near her ear, I whispered, "Let's talk in the parking lot!""What for?"I winked at her, "Speaking my heart to you!"I gave her a seductive grin, one of those I rarely offered someone with. She was unnerving and troublesome. As Ed indicated, we could not let her off this easily.I rushed to the parking lot of the hotel. The engagement party was growing hotter and no one paid attention to our absence.Everyone's attention was on the music group we invited.As I expected, my trick toiled on her. It wasn't a surprise. She liked powerful men and it didn't cost me much to lure her.I walked out of the dark, leaning on my car.She smiled and tucked a strand of her hair behind her ear."Well, what is the word of your heart?"Tobin appeared behind her, shak

    Edward~It took me two days to come back to a stable condition. During that time, Olive didn't leave my side. I was elated she had become more cautious.She didn't leave my side at all and was supposed to read books and take good care of me. Seeing this side of her made me even more fall over my heels for her.I couldn't wait for the day I could walk again. But there was something that bothered me a lot.I was not sure whether to ask her or not. I was terrified to say something she didn't like and anger her. Losing her could not take any place in my dish.I was tired of losing people and being disappointed.However, I took the bitter pill and swallowed it, asking her about the reason why she freaked out and left me."Olive, stop m*ssaging my legs, they are much better now.""You were groaning in pain last night. I must keep doing these till you become able to walk and sleep better.""Then just give me your ears."She nodded. She looked even more stunning than before."I'm all ears, do

    Olive~The next day, I couldn't sit by and ignore what was going on in the ICU. Layla hadn't come to visit me since this morning, and I refused to eat unless they let me see how Edward's condition was.It was around noon when Layla came inside and scowled at me."Have you not eaten?"I shook my head."I lost my relish. They do not let me see him.""You can't go inside the room. His lungs have been infected and you are not still in a perfect condition. We must take care of him.""Have you moved here because of us?"She bobbed her head, "Half of the day here and the other half in the central hospital. I'm an exception but this is temporary."I tried to blink my tears away but it kept coming."Hey, hey! Don't do this!"She approached and held my hand, her expression saddened."I'm worried. I won't go inside, just behind the gl*ss, please!"She let out a heavy breath and tapped on my hand."Only a few minutes, you know the rules."She nodded and helped me to get down the bed.She held my

    I struggled to open the seat belt. And the car was drowning. My heart hurt and my lungs lacked air.I was losing consciousness when I felt a hand on my shoulder.The surroundings around me reversed. A chubby cute little boy grabbed my hand."Mommy! This way!"We began to run in the garden, it was a warm delightful sunny day. Suddenly, everything swayed into the wild waters, the boy was floating, and I struggled to hold his hand."Don't let go!"I shouted but his hand slipped and he drifted further and farther away.I screamed desperately, begging for help.I blinked and opened my eyes, masculine arms wrapped around me and pulled me up. They lifted me above the water's surface.~Edward~Her car fell into the water and I didn't hesitate, pulling over there I jumped down. Losing her was nothing I could bear.The car was drowned when I reached her and unbuckled the seat belt. I felt my lungs running out of air and pulled her out, swimming up, I pushed her up with all my might.If one of

    Edward~Lately, my hands were tied. I was looking for Gregory and his influences when I heard Interpol had arrested them. I used my connections to talk with Maya's attorney in a restaurant."Why would they arrest Maya?""Are you going to help her out?"I shook my head, "If she had killed her boyfriend, why should I do that at all?""It was your wife who sent her to jail! She plotted against her and Maya won't forgive this."My head grew numb! Olive? How did she realize this? How did she manage? She couldn't be alone."Then I must thank her! I was about to trust Maya again. Besides, I want you to send a message to Mason."The attorney frowned, "We don't seek war!""Neither do I want that. Just tell him to restrain his people. If something happens to Kit again, I will burn this world, let alone his community."I menaced and he just looked at me. I got what I wanted. I needed to hear this from Olive and possibly Dane. She couldn't gather information about Maya and Gregory alone so the br

    Elenore~John was sucking on my breasts. He returned last night and after greeting his grandfather, he asked to visit me in a hotel."Why did you disappear?"I breathed, gasping!He moaned and hushed me. Half an hour later, we plunged into the mattress and he dragged me close to his chest."I realized Maya failed to do the job!"I burst into laughter."How long have you known about her?"He kissed my shoulder, it tingled my skin."Last year, I saw her father in a meeting in the US. He asked me whether I could gain the CEO position. I said if I gained it, would he invest in our company? He revealed his interest."My mood soured after hearing it, "To get what in exchange?""He *ssumed I would marry his daughter!""And you would have accepted only to burn Ed's *ss!""Nope! I knew about her secrets and how dangerous she was. She killed a man to gain his wealth."My back chilled and I turned around to face him."Are you fu*king serious?"He nodded and his fingers brushed on my curves."Yup

    Olive~"He has no idea that whore is tempted to kill his best friend! How can he keep his affairs with her!"My heart was broken. I felt my eyes getting warm and stopped my brain from overthinking.The next day, I was sitting in the garden when he came to me. He reached his hand out to pull the blanket upper on my shoulder when I dodged."Are you going to meet your grandpa?"My voice was cold but I tried not to make him suspicious."Yes, I am; it is cold, are you not going inside?""It is getting warm, I'm fine."He kneeled before me, putting on the same disgusting soft act."Do you need anything?""Yes, not to see your face every second!"I swallowed. I lied! Deeply, I wish we had known each other in some other way. Even though it couldn't change his desires! His heart belonged to the people in the past.He stood up and kissed my head, "I'll be back late. Make sure you eat well."I ignored him but peeked to see if he left.I jumped on my feet and stormed inside."Layla and I are goin

    Maya~"Where are you, Elenore? Are you ignoring me?"I have been calling you since yesterday."I heard the news, she is pregnant! But how can you be sure that’s Edward's child?"This b*tch told me Olive was a virgin and now giving me a conceivable reason.She has changed!"You say that you have no interest in helping me, don't you?""Listen, she is pregnant. He won't give up on her. Just stop bothering yourself and wasting time."I hung up immediately, punching the table in front of me. The coffee spilled out of the cup. I looked outside of the window.I have been staying in this hotel to make sure the house I would step in was going to be his."I won't lose to a stupid girl. He wants to be with her, so I let him leave this world but not now.."I was about to dial Gregory's number when an unknown phone number appeared on my screen."Let's see each other.""Olive?""Yes, I want to talk to you.""I'll send you the location."So serious!
