Reina's POV

“ Stay with me, Reina” Nina held my hands tightly when I was lowered on the stretcher, the pain that shot through me made me gnash my teeth

A tear slipped through my cheek when the memory came back again, this time harder than the last, the way Richard's face had lit up when he stared at Ariana had broken me, why her? Why does it have to be her? I kept asking myself repeatedly until I couldn't anymore. I knew I needed to stay sane, the dark crimson color that had flown down my leg was there still and Nina's pleading voice for me to stay with her was still echoing in my head.

“ I can't…. I can't…anymore” I flicked my head to the side as the intensity worsened, it was taking every single thing inside of me to keep my strength, I wanted to meet with my babies, they deserved that much.

Her feet sank to the ground, “No…no…you can… Reina..you can't, gosh, Reina, don't do this, don't…” she pleaded as I felt darkness envelop me, I could feel myself drifting with each moment that p

    Reina's POVI listened with a stern look on my face while holding one of the twins firmly, my chest beating fast.“ I can still remember when we were little, I keep thinking about what it is that you didn't like about me, but you just wouldn't say” Jackson shrugged, a frown on his face as he peered into my eyes. I was taken aback at what he had just said. It was true that I didn't really fancy him then, and it was still the same now. It has never changed. “I would have been a better choice, you know” he added while dipping a hand into his pocket, “But I guess, I wasn't fit enough to stand close to you” My heart ached as I clenched the blanket I was holding, Nina stood at a far distance with Kelvin and when our eyes met, she flashed a smile at me, while urging me on. It was amazing how she had managed to get along with Jackson in the span of a short time, and she was always chipping in words of how he was just perfect for me. I couldn't recall how many times I had to remind her abou

    Reina's POVI couldn't stop the drumming of my heart as I stared into the mirror, everything seemed to be moving too fast. It seemed just like yesterday since I had Kelvin and Karen and when Jackson came into my life and now, this was happening.The door creaked open, and my breath hitched when a hand touched me," Nina" I whispered anxiously. “ You look so tense, loosen up a bit, would you? It is a date and nothing more, besides you have gone on countless other dates with him, so why are you looking this way?” I heaved, hoping that it would calm down my racing heart, but it did nothing to help," I cannot just fix my hands on it, but I can feel that something huge is about to happen” I loosened up to her while biting on my lips nervously. She closed the gap between us, leaning forward, “All you have to do is be positive, stay positive, and stop jittering around, take a deep breath and everything will be fine” she assured me. I snapped my head at her, nodding gently, it didn't seem

    Richard's POV.I couldn't explain that very moment when I had seen Reina on TV with kids who looked like me. Everything had happened so fast that for a moment, I had forgotten to think properly because of how excited I was. I had given orders to Darren to run a check on her, and when he gave me, I was left with no other choice than to come here. Where I knew she was going to be. I flipped my head around when I heard a car pull up behind me, and Reina stepped out of the car, looking effortlessly beautiful. Her hair was packed up in buns and the gown she had on, pale blue which was decorated with pearls and had sapphires on it accentuated her shape, she stood transfixed to a spot as though she were taking in my appearance and that was when I noticed the man who stood beside her, he was looking perfect and if not that I knew how much girls swooned over me, I would have made assumptions on how he was looking more handsome than I was. I seethed in jealousy when he took a step forward, wr

    Reina's POV“ Calm down, everything will be fine, I am assuring you of that” Jackson whispered to me.I gazed at him gently before pacing up and down yet again, with a hand placed on my lips. I just couldn't fathom what exactly I had done wrong, where all of this had gone wrong. How did he find me? We were so far away, and it was almost impossible for him to, gosh. Slumping on the chair, I placed a hand on my face as different thoughts ran through my mind, different thoughts on what exactly I was to do, I had to think of something, something that made sense.“Reina” I jerked up, staring at Nina who stood up there, on the stairs, her eyes were fixed on mine. “ The kids?”“Asleep” she answered, while walking down," Although it wasn't easy to put them to sleep because they kept wanting to know, I had managed to and they were calm. For now” she stared at me, "For now" I palmed my head, thinking of what to do when an idea clicked in my head, “Your parents can help, can't they? Yes they

    Richard's POVMy mood was soured already as I moved my eyes swiftly through the paper Darren had given me. Jackson had played an important role in their lives, and I could see why Reina had depended on him. He had been a part of her life from the very moment she welcomed the twin, and he had even helped her in the theater. I tore the paper into shreds, the one that had the photo of where exactly he had paid to propose to her if I wasn't quick enough. This was good, good riddance to bad rubbish, I wanted to see how exactly he would do it when I was back. I was ready to go to any length to get her back if that meant pushing him away. “ He had known her since they were kids?” I squinted my eyes at that particular part of the paper that had it inscribed on.“Yes, according to my source, he had loved her for a while now and…" “ TSK…TSK…TSK…and now I am back, to get her back into my life, Reina will be mine and mine alone”“ Yes boss, there is no disputing that, but Ryan has been talking

    Reina's POVI gasped out in shock, Nina's hands gripping mine as I stumbled backward. “ This isn't happening” I shook my head, refusing to believe it because there was no way this was possible. I was entitled to my kids, I had been a mother to them all this while without Richard's help, so how could he act this way? Toward me?“ My verdict is final” the judge stomped, finally standing up. I fixed my eyes on her, watching her walk away before wriggling to Nina's hands that were wrapped around me firmly. “ If you think that I am going to let you have my kids, then you are mistaken, you can go through whatever length, but I am not going to let you have them” I swore at him.This certainly didn't work in my favor, but that didn't mean I was going to go along with it. It felt odd that everything had been in Richard's favor, but I guess that I should have expected it.With how fast he had grown within the past few years, I should have expected him to have such insane powers as well. “ Yo

    Reina's POV“ Richard!” I couldn't contain the anger within me, I had stopped a cab after giving instructions to Kelvin that they shouldn't step out of the house and had taken a cab here.Although, I had expected the security men to stop me on my way there, they had all stood back like they had been given instructions before I stepped in here. It didn't take long to find out where exactly Richard's office would be. Since he was at the top of the food chain, I had thought about the fact that he would be all the way up and when the elevator dinged, bringing him directly to my face, all that I wanted to do was poke his eyes.He had a wide smile on his face, stretching out his hands.to welcome me, “Who knew that I would be getting a visitor as beautiful as you very soon? Come in”I jabbed at his arms, pushing him away until he was leaning against the wall," How could you?'' I vented out, angrily, at him. I was disgusted by the nerves he had, the very one that told him that he could do an

I…I…" "Don't fucking give me that bullshit, don't…what exactly were you thinking? How could you have allowed something like that to happen when you were there?" I slammed hard on the table, before standing to my full height, towering against his.My heart was racing and I knew that I had to do something, Nina was the only key I held against Reina, she couldn't go missing now. What if she had gone back to Reina? What if she had…"Calm down, calm down" I had kept whispering to myself, throwing a long last glance at Darren, whose eyes were fixed on the ground not even meeting my gaze. " Arghhhhh" I gnashed my teeth angrily, storming down toward the elevator. All I needed to do was make sure that I had heard wrong, Nina was frail, so how exactly could she have escaped?Placing a foot into my car, I stepped on the gas, moving as fast as I could, stopping just before the w

    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?

    Ryan's POV I had a hand against my head, as I gazed at the screen before me. I had a deadline and I knew that I had to get this done, but I couldn't bring myself to work. My eyes turned blurry as I peered into the computer, the screen splitting into lines of black and white the longer I gazed at it. Brian and Nina were two people who just didn't fit, I had tried to place my hands on it, but I just couldn't get why exactly she preferred his presence all of a sudden. Was it because of the crash? Why exactly would she forget us all and prefer his company? All of a sudden, at that?A gush of air left my throat as I tried to get the answer, but it wasn't forthcoming, my hands ran across the keyboard before I tapped on the landline, ushering my secretary in. “ How many pro bono cases have we taken up this week?” I had to keep to my arrangements, and had to be careful when it was needed also. “ Five” “ How many more?” There had to be more, and I needed to know if I would go myself, j

    Brian tried to understand what exactly it was that Nina was playing at, but he just couldn't. He would have believed her little antics that she had indeed lost her memories, if she hadn't avoided all of his attempts to touch her. It seemed like she had something in mind, maybe she was thinking of how to pay him back, and she was in for a long run because he was certainly not going to allow that. He was determined to play along, and perhaps then when he had gotten her to lower her guards, he would have his way with her, for now, he had to make her pay for going against his words. His eyes searched around the familiar white bungalow severally for its owner, and when it was dawned on him that he wouldn't be successful tonight, he tried to leave when he heard her heels on the pavement. He slipped the little camera he always had in his pocket, he was one who loved to record memories of when his opponent was at their lowest, when he tainted his hands with blood because he got the thril
