Inka's Point of View
A week had passed and everyone was busy for the grand ball, Read continuously drives me to and from my work. We were both busy with our works, but he never forgets to make sure that I am safe.
I asked him if he could train me but he refuses that idea and told me that he could always protect me which I opposed but he ignored me. I tried asking the others but they were all too busy to train me so I secretly went to Read's gym when he's not around and just worked out.
"Aren't you going to train me?" I asked Read once again as he drove me towards my company.
"We have discussed this already, Inka. I said it once, and I'm gonna say it again, my decision is final and it's a NO." He answered
"I just don't g
Inka's Point of View"Is everything ready?" I heard Read asked through his phoneI looked outside of our car and saw the cruise ship, a lot of people are arriving and entering the ship already. I took a glanced at Read as he was discussing something to Wayne. I feel like something is going to happen later, they just didn't tell it to me, I can feel it.I ran my fingers at the fabric of my dress, under this at my thighs are a small gun the Read gave me before we went here together with my small knife.That already gave me a hint that something is going to happen here. I heaved a sigh and readied myself for whatever plans that these guys have."Okay, We'll meet you there." He put his phone back to his pockets and opened the car door.
Inka's Point of ViewRead held my hand all the time until the Auction had started, I was trying to calm myself down but I was really nervous. "Can you at least tell me where are the others? I can't really calm myself down." I told to Read while he was looking at the small list of the items for tonight, he glanced at me then went back to the list as he heaved a sigh."Wayne is at the top floor of the ship, Andrew behind us 6 tables away from us while Josh is behind the stage, he will be the host later." He answered, I nodded and discreetly looked behind us, I saw Andrew talking to a guy, He was wearing a midnight blue tailored suit and a golden mask that covers the upper half of his face. Somehow I had calmed down a little but still, I can feel someone is watching me. I looked around the place and saw a guy upstairs, near the door, he was looking at my way-- actually he IS looking at ME. He was wearing a mask but only the lower half of his face is hidden. I stood up and told Read tha
Inka's Point of View"Where's Read?" I asked as I approached him"Inside killing someone who provoked him." He answered while shooting I stood behind him and took my small gun, looking around I saw a lot of men in their suits fighting, some even have their swords."What the heck happened in here, anyway? I thought this was going smoothly?" I asked and fired someone"We already expected this, the moment you went out of the hall we knew that Read wouldn't control his temper anymore. That's why we were busy for the past weeks." He explainedI ran out of bullets so I took my other knife and threw it at the guy running towards us. I dodged the punch that was supposed to hit my right face and punched him back at his face, he stepped back a little and tried to gain his posture but I kicked him at his chin that threw him back as he went unconscious."So you trained while we're gone," Wayne commented and I just shrugged my shoulders and winked at him"Let's go, Josh and Andrew are already wait
Inka's Point of ViewThe sun shined from the windows that made me groaned. I opened my eyes and looked around as I realized that I am in an unfamiliar place. I looked at my side and saw Read sleeping peacefully. Ah, right! Were on his private island. I stretched my arms and jumped out of the bed, I walked to the bathroom and made my morning routines.After doing my things, I walked out of our room and went downstairs, I saw Andrew drinking some coffee."Hey, Andrew!" I greeted and went towards the fridge.I looked around and decided to cook some breakfast which are french toast, bacon, and oatmeal."How was your sleep?" He asked while I pre-heated the pan"Good. Actually, that was my good sleep after a long time." I answered, he hummed and continued sipping his coffee."What are you going to make? Can I help?"I nodded and told him to prepare some 2 cups of oatmeal while I cook the bacon.
Inka's Point of View"How's the list going?" I asked as I entered Read's officeThe boys had gone out to attend some important business, Read and I was the only one at his house so I went inside his office to ask him. "I'm getting there. I already eliminated the ones who didn't stay at the Main House for over 2 months. I got 50 people who need to be checked on what they did during the time my brother was killed." He answeredI nodded and walked behind him to give him a little massage. He groaned and leaned back to me, I smiled and hummed a little. He took my hand that made me stop so I looked at him confused about the sudden changes of mood."Did you bring any dress?" He suddenly asked which I raised an eyebrow to.I shook my head as he nodded."Okay, I need you to do something for me. Would that be okay?" I nodded and went in front of him"You'll meet Wayne later outside, tell him that you both needed to go to the town and buy something. Wayne already knew about this so he wouldn't a
Inka's Point of ViewWe roamed around the town. It was like an ancient place away from the true civilization of our country. Though this town also has its own phones and signal routes, still the interior and the design of every building here are so ancient."I guess Read is like the Leader of this Island," I muttered whereas Wayne heard it and looked at me"I guess so too since he was the one who helped these people have their own technology and livelihood." He answered in which I nodded.We roamed around and bought some stuff, I was paying for the fruits that I bought when I heard someone screamed. I turned around and saw a lady running, she was distraught and pale. I looked at Wayne and saw that he was on full alert.He looked at me and I nodded telling him to follow the girl. He was hesitant at first but I glared at him. He heaved a sigh and followed the girl who was running. I looked back at the place where the girl came
Inka's Point of ViewOnce Keziah was done showering, I gave her the set of clothes that she'll wear and waited for her again. I looked at myself in the mirror and made sure that I look okay. Once the bathroom opened, I helped her brushed her hair and we both went down to the kitchen.I saw them cooking and preparing the table for the dinner. Well except for Read who was probably back at his office. I guided Keziah to seat at one of the chairs as I looked up at Wayne's dishes."You know what, you could already have a wife with those kinds of foods," I stated as I admire all the dishes he was cooking."Yeah and hear a lot of nagging? No thank you." He answered as I laughed and went back.I sat beside Keziah and smiled at her. We waited for another 15 minutes when the boys had finished cooking and placed the foods at the table. I stood up and told them that I'll just call Read. I ran upstairs to his office and knocked twice before ope
Inka's Point of ViewI looked at him, eyes unwavering. He was right though, he doesn't know anything about me. I never told anyone about my story, about my life. Am I ready to tell it to him though?"I don't even know you too," I answeredHe sat up, holding me by my waist."I already told you some and besides my story can't be told just yet." He stated on which I smiled a little and cuddled to his chest. His grip became tighter."And same as I, Read. I went back and forth through hell, I can't just tell it to someone like a bedtime story. I'm not ready yet and I hope you understand that." I mutteredI felt him kissed the top of my head and hummed."I understand, I'm sorry if it felt like I was pressuring you, I just wanted to know you better." He added and I nodded.For some minutes we stayed like that. Cuddling at the bed, it was when we heard his phone rang when he decided to let me go. I stood up and w
Inka's Point of View"What do you mean you're not sure?" I asked confused as he heaved a sigh and looked back at us."I'm not sure because I didn't know it was him and I was told too late that the guy I was beating was a minor!" Read exclaimed frustrations lacing at his voice."Can you at least explain it to us?" Wayne asked groaning at the building tension in the atmosphere."I-I... It was 7 years ago when I had a failed shipment and I was enraged because that was the biggest and expensive shipment that I had. My men told me that someone was there and messed up our shipments so I went there to see who was that someone." He stated as he sat back in his chair"I saw a boy, he was tall and muscular so I assumed that he wasn't a minor anymore. He was just wearing a black shirt, pants and some old rubber shoes. He was wearing a mask so I didn't saw his face but when I saw him holding by my men, I got angry and just pour my anger out at
Inka's Point of ViewI felt a tap on my cheeks as I groaned. I opened my eyes and saw Read's face, he was smiling a little and gently tapping my cheeks."What?" I groaned and yawned"We're already here." He stated and I looked around.As I have observed, I knew that we are in a different city already. This one looks like a town in a province. It was peaceful and you could see the people having some conversation with each other."Where are we?" I asked Read and he smiled"On an Adventure. Come on, the best part would start soon." He said and I nodded hopping off of his car."How come it's so peaceful in here?" I asked and he shrugged"I guess since everyone wanted to go where the progress starts, they abandoned the place where they can get peace." I heard him muttered and I agreedI looked around and found myself smiling at the peaceful ambiance that the town has. The sky had turned into a sha
Inka's Point of ViewRead parked his car at the basement of his quarters. It was my first time going here and I can say that it looks scary as hell. I looked around and saw his men full of weapons around their bodies."These men of yours, who trained them?" I asked glancing at Read who was taking something from the trunk"I did. I'm not known as the Berserker if my men aren't lustful on blood now, would we?" He answered and I noddedWe walked inside his quarters. A lot of his people were there, some on training, some were just chilling at the side and some would walk and run back and forth. We walked inside a room that I think would be his office since it looks like one. Entering, I saw Wayne sitting on the couch while looking at some files that he was holding. He looked at us and immediately stood up as he greeted Read and me."Have you run a full search on the building?" Read asked as he sat down at his swivel chair
Inka's Point of ViewI woke up by the sound of Read's soft snores. I opened my eyes and noticed his arms wrapped around my waist as he was snuggling at the crook of my neck. I smiled to myself and snuggled closer, feeling his warmth more."Good Morning," He greeted, his voice was husky and that sent a lot of weird feeling into my heart.I looked at him and smiled as I greeted him back. He snuggled closer as I played with his hair."Got any plans for today?" I asked and he just hummed back before looking at me"Just a few paperwork and visit to a site, why?" He asked back and I shrugged"I just missed you, that's all," I mutteredHe looked at me, confused and worried as he sat up and stare back at me."Something wrong?"I shook my head and chuckled. He didn't believe it so I decided to punch him a little."You were so busy for a while that I had spent my whole
Inka's Point of ViewDays turned to weeks and weeks turned to months since the day that Andrew saw my vulnerable state. Read told me that the cameras installed around my office were just inside the office itself and nothing around the whole building. I had told Andrew not to tell Read about what happened in the conference room because I am not ready to tell about it to anyone yet and he agreed.Andrew and I had been closer than ever, Read was continuously busy because of his mafia duties and his work as a billionaire. Whereas Andrew had always accompanied me and acting as a personal bodyguard, he claims that he is worried if I was left alone because he felt like someone might attack me anytime considering that someone planted a lot of cameras around my office.I haven't told anyone that I saw Josh coming out of my office suspiciously. I might ruin their whole alliance if I told something about it and misinterpret it. And I can't ri
Inka's Point of View"What happened?"The moment Read entered my office, he looked like he was ready to kill. Behind him were three bulky guys who were wearing an all-black outfit."Please don't tell me you went right into the lobby with them," I told him while shooting a glare at them"We didn't. We went inside the parking lot." He told me and I nodded, I don't want to cause some rumors to my workers."So what happened here?" He asked and Andrew told him what happened a while ago"Do you have any idea who had been at your office?" He asked me and I shrugged my shoulders."Basically it would have been me and my secretary since this is my office, also some other employee that wanted to walk to me would come here but besides that. I got no idea who." I explained and he nodded.Read looked at Andrew who was in deep thoughts."We need to have some investigation and a clean up
Inka's Point of ViewWayne groaned from the punch that I gave him as the other two guys rubbed their cheeks."I didn't know that you can punch that strong, Inka?" I heard Read commented behind meI shrugged my shoulders and shot a glare at the three guys."I can't believe that you three actually tricked me. Ugh!" I exclaimed still denying the fact that I was gullible enough to believe something."We won't be successful if we aren't a great actor, Inka. It's part of our job." Josh answered and stretched his arms.I rolled my eyes as I sat on the couch. Our dinner date ended with a comfortable atmosphere. Read talked a lot, he shared with me some experiences, stories and a lot of things. I felt normal, WE felt normal. No mafia, no killings, nothing.I looked at his cousin who walked out of the kitchen. Read said that she was a part of a trio group that serves as the brain of his empire. He added that
Hi! Before I start this chapter, I just have a small request for you guys. Can you drop some feedbacks and comments for this story? It would be a great help since I want to know what parts am I lacking and if this book suits your taste, can you give me some stars too? Thank you so much! I'm always open to criticization. :)Inka's Point of View"Wayne was right. The one who was occupying the White Island was Felix, Fash's twin. Keziah was Fash's lover not until Keziah had been abducted because of Felix. Felix is an obsessed guy, he loves what Fash's loves, including Keziah." Read started explaining and I listened."I figured this out when I had captured Keziah. She is also under the control of Felix.""How can that Felix control people?" I asked, confused because I know that it takes a lot of work to control one person using something. Well, hypnotizing can work but it also takes a lot of time."Fash and
Inka's Point of ViewI groaned as I regain my consciousness, my head throbbed in pain as I opened my eyes. I realized that I was in our bedroom. I looked around and saw no one, not even Read. I rubbed my temple as another wave of headache came and I began to feel nauseous.The door suddenly opened revealing Read in his bloody shirt and messy hair."You're awake already?" I heard him askedI closed my eyes and tried to suppress the headache, I felt the bed dipped as he sat beside me."Are you okay? What are you feeling?" He asked"I'm okay just a massive headache," I answered and massaged my temples"Don't worry it will end soon. It's just the drugs." He answeredI was in too much pain to ask anything so I just nodded, a little disoriented. I lay my head back at the bed and groaned. I was really feeling weak but I tried to fight the tiredness away but couldn't and realized that I am slipping away fro
