Nina's POV

I waited at the door for him to walk in, for him to walk past the door. My hands clawed into my palm while I did so, as time drifted away, and I was left to my thoughts.

I knew that I was supposed to go alongside him, but he had clearly rebuffed me doing so.

It was at times like this I wondered if indeed I had any use to him. I had caused all of this, every single thing happening was because of me.

If I hadn't insisted that he should fight for the company, then, maybe everything would have been fine.

I dropped to the couch behind me, my hands patting my face. I needed to know how he was.

I needed to know what he was thinking and what he wanted to do, I needed him to tell me, to talk to me.

When the door beeped, revealing his slanted form, I held out my hands to him. He hugged me, squeezing me so tight that I had to push him a bit just so that I could breathe properly.

His alcohol scented breath wafted into my nostrils, before I held him to myself. “You are drunk,” I

    Nina's POV “ What do you mean? Why would he do that? How did he know where exactly you were at? Who told him?” I threw those questions at her, wondering what exactly was going on. It wasn't supposed to be this way, we were supposed to have the upper hand here. We were supposed to be the one dictating what we wanted, how and where exactly, but it seemed that was it right now. “You should be fine here,” Ryan added. His hands clasped around mine. “ Do you have proof? A video or anything? There has to be something that would help” he said to her. She placed her hands into her bag, before drifting a car to him. “ Here, the hotel management handed it over to me. It is where I usually stay at, and they also promised to testify when the needs arise” I didn't know if anything was more fucked up than this situation right now. Reina had parents who loved each other, they loved each other so much that they couldn't let go of each other, they even teased themselves with how they were going

    Ryan's POV My gaze was on Rivolty who had a smile on his face. I didn't know what to make of it, but I knew that there was no way that I was going to let him go. I was going to make sure everything turned against him today, and maybe only then would he know who I was. My hands held the microphone, before it went to the judges who were seated in three’s. “ Plead your case” I began, reading out every single thing that I had filed, the smile lingered on his lips, but I was sure it would leave when I was done with him today. “ Mr. Ryan, the charges you read out are outrageous, are you sure that you have proof to back them up?” I nodded, giving her an answer. I wasn't going to be a fool without one. When I said I wanted the company back, I meant it and I wasn't going back on my word. She turned to Rivolty. “ I will listen to the accused now” Rivolty tapped on the mic, flashing a smile before he spoke. “All of these charges are false, and my client is aggrieved. He hasn't been ab

    Nina's POV Blood. That was the only thing that rang out in my eyes as I stared around, the courtroom was a mess and I knew that I couldn't be here anymore. My eyes went to Ryan, who was pushing past the crowd just to find me, to get to where I was. I screamed, screamed so hard when he did so. My heart relaxed when I felt myself become wrapped around a body of muscles, so tight that I didn't know what else to do. Reina stood, fixed to the ground, and that was when it stuck in me. Richard had raced out to get him. “ Take” Ryan placed the car key in my open hands. “ Take Reina and go to the car. I will be back soon”Reina didn't say a word, she stood transfixed to the ground before I held her to myself. “ Fuck it, get yourself together” I screamed loud enough for her to hear me. “ Let's go” I threw a glance at Brian who was walking over, his eyes glared at me before he sauntered past. “ He is fine. He will be fine” I assured her. “ Why?” She demanded. “ Why does it have to be hi

    He kept driving, driving so fast that if anyone had asked him where exactly he was going, he wouldn't have been able to provide an answer, but he needed to clear his head. Things haven't gone in his favor, they were all messed up, not only had he been ordered to give back the company he had collected, he had also been given the orders to give all other one that made up his subsidiaries out. He didn't want to think about Ryan right now, he was only going to get pissed off, and it wouldn't even help if that happened. He slammed hard against the steering wheel while he contemplated on what to do. He had no choice, had no single choice right now. He would have gone back to his mistress, or rather his gf since he wasn't betrothed to Nina, but he didn't want to. She had mad mood swings that weren't favorable, and he knew that he needed to stay away from her right now, he would rather not end up with her blood in his palm. Brian has been patient enough, and he didn't want anymore than

    Nina's POV I hummed while I ran a hand on my lips, a smile that bloomed straight out to the edge of it. “ Sooooo, what exactly is going on that I don't know about?” I threw my head above my shoulder at my mother who wouldn't stop asking. Dragging in a breath, I reminded her. “ I have a date with Reina and Richard” “ And why aren't you doing so over here?” My eyes were in slits as I stared at her. Why exactly weren't we doing it here? “ We needed privacy, we have been through a lot and we thought just us doing this would help” She exhaled before prompting me to go ahead. “ I wouldn't want to keep you behind then, you should go ahead” My lips lingered against her cheek before I stepped out. She was home, so the kids were fine. It wasn't like I didn't trust Gladys, but she needed rest most of the time. It was easy working this way, so she needed her beauty sleep when she could get it and the kids could be a handful. I was considering getting a nanny, though, but that would com

    Ryan's POV “ Get the fuck out of here” my hand slammed against his chest, shoving him out. If he thought that he would be able to make me act out here, then he was in for a long night. Brian stood, adamantly, his eyes roaming around before they froze. Richard stood in front of him, glaring straight at him. I watched as he glanced at him before sauntering off.Nina stumbled backward, just in time for me to hold her. My hands held her shoulders, helping her stand upright. “ Are you fine?” I asked, eyes staring at her, as I tried to ascertain if indeed she was. All she did was given me a smile, one that didn't leave her lips before she sat back. “I apologize for the ruckus” it wasn't clear to me why she would be apologizing. She had practically done nothing wrong. My hands clasped her while I hoped it would give her the warmth that she was seeking. “ It is fine. You should stop apologizing” I said to her. The thought of looking behind her head just to be sure that she was safe p

    Nina's POV I woke up for the first time in a long while, with a smile plastered across my lips. My legs plastered on the bed, before I sat upright. Fine Nina, take in air and go about your daily activities. It was just sex. I wanted to tell myself that it was merely sex, but I knew that it was more than that. We had made love, filled each other's souls, discussed the times when everything was perfect, and it didn't hurt as it usually does. My hand patted my chest, the usual thought that I had been the reason for the happenings lately around us fading away. I had kept it tucked in so well that I knew Ryan hadn't suspected, there were nights where I turned my back to him, where I wet the side of my bed with tears. I didn't know if he noticed, but I knew that he did, most nights he would hug me to himself so tight that I knew he was scared of losing me. But what about me? Who I thought was losing herself in the process of all of this? I knew that was the truth, he had demons, and

    Ryan's POV A tease, a fucking one, and I needed to know why this exactly was a punishment? It didn't look like one to be. I was being forced to stare at Nina as she slipped her finger into her precious, pink cunt that wanted my attention, and to continue eating. I didn't know what else to do, as I had pleaded countless times for her to let me do something, but she just wasn't. “ Nina, please. I didn't know she would be here, if I had known that I wouldn't have stepped a foot into this office” I wasn't even lying, nor battling with words. If I had known that she would be here, I would have turned on my heels and stomped off without staring back. This wasn't what I wanted, what I wanted was to be let out of this torture that was happening, I just couldn't help it anymore. My dick strained against my trousers, so fucking hard that I didn't know what made sense or what doesn't anymore, aside from her being here. My throat swallowed while she arched her head backward, her boobs ste

    Nina's POV My hands squeezed around Reina as as we waited for the judge's verdict, my heart slammed so hard as she made a point on how he had committed murder, and had burnt an orphanage killing kids as well. Everyone had watched the video and it had been brutal. So brutal that I had shut my eyes through it all. “ Brian is sentenced to death by shooting for mass murder, and it should be carried out immediately” she snapped the pen she held into two. He stood up, eyes bloodshot as he glared at the judge. My heart spiked as I recalled what he had done the last time, thinking of how he might make a repeat of the same thing, it was going to be heart-wrenching. “ You won't be able to kill me. You won't be able to, what makes you any different from me? You do the same thing as I do, and you are still alive, you can't!” My eyes brimmed with tears in them, as Ryan punched a hand up in the air, his eyes were on me as he mouthed out. “ We did it” I knew he was also trying to tell me abou

    Ryan's POV My eyes slithered into red when I saw him pinning her against the wall. “ Fuck” I cursed, pushing against the chair in my way before shoving the door open. It came open in a crank and shoving him away from her, I threw a punch into his face. He collided against the wall, before aiming one at me. He threw one on my face, which I returned before we were pulled away. “ I will make sure you live the rest of your life behind bars” I yelled at him, venomously. Even if it was going to take my last breath, I was going to make that happen. Nina stood at the far edge, a hand around her neck as she took in gasps of air, pulling off the jacket I had on, I threw it over her before guiding her out. I made sure we were safe in the car before zooming off. I didn't know what I was going to know if he had hurt her more than this, maybe send his body rolling, I would have made him regret every single thing about his life. I might have ended up punching him to death, the rage in me st

    Nina's POVMy heart sledged against my rib cage while I watched Ryan navigate his way as he drove down. I thought of how Brian was in cuffs, how all of those girls were going to be served justice soon, even my secretary and I couldn't have been happier. The thought of her stabbing him even when he had shot her still sent shivers down my spine. I didn't understand why she had done that, I wouldn't have known until she had told me that I was the first person who had treated her in such a way. My hands moved on my gown, tapping on it repeatedly when a hand clasped around it, trying to get me to stare at him. “ I am fine, just focus and drive” “ You are agitated, are you fine?” “ I am” I answered, my voice betraying my words. He swerved off course, slamming the brakes before peering at me. “ I am not a fool, fluffy bear, what is in your mind?” He questioned again. I chewed on my lips, gazing at him before the words came out. “ I just think he should have been found earlier, I m

    Nina's POV “I am fine” I tried to shrug his hands off. He was being a worrywart. “You don't have to come with me’’ I tried to get him off my back. I mean we were in the penthouse together, and although the kids weren't here, I knew they were okay. I was fine as well, but Ryan wasn't so sure of that, seeing how he was constantly on my heels. “Really? It is the same spot, it isn't that far from the stairs” I glanced up, directing his gaze to the spiral step. He shook his head, nor listening to me. “You can't understand how I felt when I saw you being bonded into the car, I had never felt so helpless, I mean, in the courtroom everyone knew me as the best, but there, I couldn't do anything” he confessed. My heart stilled while I watched him. “I know that I shouldn't think about that, but I was already doing so. I thought about what would happen if he used you as one of his trophies. I was already thinking of how to make him pay, but inwardly, I hope that you would be fine, for me,

    Nina's POV When I had felt the needle prick my skin, I couldn't move an inch, no matter how hard I tried to, it was impossible for me to. I had pleaded, bawled my eyes even before I lost consciousness. When I was awake, I found out I was lying on the ground, not tied up, but I was lying down on skulls, and sharp bones which jabbed into me. I had tried to stand up, but a closer gaze at where I was had me wobbling, a scream had left my throat at what I was seeing while I had stumbled backwards. I hadn't known this, knew that he had this. He had always lived a spotless life, at least that's what my mother and I had known, we hadn't known about this, hadn't thought that he was capable of decapitating humans, of storing humans, of killing them, making trophies out of them. We hadn't known how much of a psychopath he was, that he had a habit of collecting trophies, human ones. Chills had run down my spine, countless times that I had forgotten to breathe. When I had finally pushed o

    Ryan's POVI kept muttering out words which were incoherent even to myself while Nina was in my arms. I tried to get up, tried to think, I knew that she needed to be out of here, that we both had to be out of here, but my knees were stamped to the ground. A hand grasped my shoulders, jolting me up. “You have to leave, get her to the hospital” I flickered my gaze around, a string of curses leaving my lips as I did so. I searched around, for his gait, to see him with cuffs clicked on his wrist, but he was nowhere to be found, I threw the thought that told me he had fled away, that couldn't have happened. “Brian, where is he?” I questioned Richard, whose face gave an answer I didn't want to believe. A cackle left my lips, reverberating across the room. “You can't let him go, the kids, our kids, Reina, they are there, he might hurt them” He shook his head at me, peering once more in my arms. “Get out of here, let me handle the rest”I forced myself up, nodding at him before I tra

    Ryan's POV A dip, that was what I had felt when I had pushed the door open, and she wasn't in there. I had tried to convince myself that she would be in the room, she would be in the bathroom, she might have taken a walk, but I knew that wasn't it. My third senses didn't just agree with what I thought it was, so I had pleaded with Richard to get access to the CCTV, and he had. “ She is heading towards the back door, I am going to give an order for all doors to be locked right away, get her back man”His words would have sounded right if I hadn't chased down like a mad man, and watched as she was yanked into a car, a midnight black sports car. I had raced down, sprinted down the stairs with both hands on my hips as I took in gaps of air. I chewed on my lips, until I could feel the crimson taste, the coppery taste sluicing through my senses. I heaved, before punching into the wall as I slipped into my car, chasing after them. I was going to be a fool to let him take her away from

    Nina's POVI felt like a mess, the only thing that no one else wanted to associate with, I didn't want to think about what exactly Brian would be thinking, I didn't want to know why I hadn't even thought about the fact that he had such tendencies, was I ever in love with him? No, so why was I unable to see it? I hated it, with each fiber in me when people were in such an uncomfortable place because of me. I could sense it, the hesitation, the hurt that filled Reina's eyes. I was the cause of all that. I always made things happen, and when they did, they always hurt everyone around me. I chewed on my lips before breaking off my thoughts. “ You aren't the cause of anything” Ryan cupped my face as he whispered at me. I tried to believe that I wasn't, it was going to mean a lot, but I couldn't do so. I always did this, I had done this to mum, and it hadn't been funny. “It is fine, I want to go home” she insisted. Home wasn't going to be the little white bungalow that Ryan had built

    Ryan's POVThere was no way I would have known what exactly she was thinking, now that I was thinking about it, she had always kept her emotions cladded. So tight that I couldn't see through. Why would she ever think that? Why was she going to think that she would ever wreck my life? Even if she did, she would do so in a good way. She was the only thing that sparkled in my life, so what exactly had she been thinking? Was she really going to act as if she didn't know? That she didn't have a clue of how much she meant to me? What she actually meant to me? How I will raze everywhere down if it meant me being with her again? “ My fluffy bear” I flicked the tears off her cheek. “ Why would you ever think that? Why would you ever think that you wreck anything?”The tears ran down her cheek, while I patted her back, letting her lean on my shoulders. “ You will never be a wreck to me, you mean the whole world to me, don't you know how whole you make me feel?
