Her eyes were hurt, it tugs at something protective within me. “No Enrique. Don’t, don’t say it. Everyone who ever told me that ended up hurting me and I can't..."

I placed my hands against her lips. “shhh. I am not those people. I love you April, I do, and I cannot stop myself from telling you after so long of keeping it in. I care about you April. Trust me”

She watched me, eyes searching. “Why? Why do you love me, Enrique? My mom didn't, and my father who did for a while decided that I wasn't worth his love. She told me that it's my fate to be alone, that no one would ever love me because I drove everyone away.. ”

I take her hands, intertwining them with mine. “She's wrong April. You are the most beautiful driven smart woman I have ever met and I want that in my life. You started managing such a company at a young age, took care of your father and your employees. How can anyone not fall for you April? You are kind and warm inside even if you hide behind those cold walls you've built

    APRIL'S POVI stirred as the sun shone through the window, hitting me in the face. My body felt lax and I could feel his warmth wrapped all around me as it tried to lull me back to sleep. It was so peaceful and my face burned as I remembered the night before. My body started to tingle just as I relieved all the places his hands had been on my body. Slight pain in my lower region made it all the clearer that I wasn't dreaming at all. I couldn't believe that I was able to let go and feel so much passion without guilt or fear. I turned to gaze at his face as he slept. I can't help but stare and memorize every outline of his perfection. His long hair always called out to me to stroke them, it was a heady feeling. I found myself reaching out to it and twirling it around my finger. He stirred and his hold loosened a bit. I sat up as I stared at him. My heart raced in my chest and my breathing got heavy. I wanted him so much, that it felt scary. I wanted him for a long time. This feeling g

    April stepped into the abandoned-looking house as cautiously as she could. She checked the room looking for kat, surprised that the place looked deserted. The hairs on the back of her neck stood in dread as she heard a soft murmur. She took a deep breath, heading towards the door where the sound had come from. She pushed it open slowly and stepped in, her gaze darting around the space."Well hi, beauty" the voice boomed behind her startling her. She whirled around to face him, realizing at the last moment that Brian had set a trap for her. A hard object collided with her head. The world tilted on its axis, her gaze darkening as her head throbbed in pain. She fell to the floor as the black dots swam around her eyes. She felt his hand on her hair, petting her like she was a dog."Finally mine" he murmured darkly.*******Earlier in the morning.Enrique felt the warmth surrounding him fade away.

    April watched him, her chest racing as a smile grazed his lip. He looked like a maniac, his hair was sticking up everywhere. His eyes connected with her and they scared her because of how soulless they appeared. It looked dead. He had lost his mind for sure."He was always telling me what and what not to do"He stated, trying to explain to her why he shot Brian. April was short for words, everything seemed like a bad dream and she wondered when she would wake up."I-I-I... C-Can you untie me" she managed to get out of her parched throat. He stared at April like she had lost her mind, then he was suddenly laughing making her stomach churn. Everything was starting to hurt. He stopped, regarding her long enough to make April uneasy."Oh we'll come to that pretty face. I thought your first word would have been something like, why did you shoot your best friend but I guess you don't care if he's dead right"."You already shot him so why will I bother about your motives" she forced out brave

    *****Kyle smiled as he flipped through the documents, her signature on each page. It was almost too easy, but he knew that when one felt threatened, they relinquished everything if they thought it would guarantee their safety."This wasn't so hard was it now," he asked and she looked up at him, her eyes tired."I did what you wanted so let me go like you promised." She said, her voice hoarse. Giving her company away must have hurt more than she would admit, Kyle thought, watching her with a smile. He loved the look on her, it made her subdue. He wanted to break her further."Wow, if only everyone kept their promises wouldn't this world be a better place. You should have read the document before signing, because pretty face you signed all your wealth, including yourself to me. I own you now". He announced with glee, then watched mesmerized, as color exploded on April's face as her rage took overApril struggled with the ropes, the anger that ceased her whole being threatening to choke

    "April?" Enrique asked faintly, his heart flipping. Jayden looked as worried."No, it was not Miss April. They exhumed a dead body who had the same features as her". He explained.Enrique took a deep breath as he ran his hand through his hair muttering words to himself. His heart felt like It was chasing itself and sweat dripped down his face.Jayden placed his hand on his shoulder."Don't worry. April would be found.

    Kyle got out of the car as soon he reached his destination. He felt like he had slipped off somewhere and everything was going to go to ruin. He quickly walked toward where April was and yanked the door open. A swift kick connected with his groin and he doubled over in pain. Surprise and shock marring his face.April flung the blanket from around her, she forced herself out of the car and shoved at Kyle. Then she was running, screaming, and shouting for help at the top of her lungs. Her head throbbed and she felt like collapsing but she couldn't give up. Hands suddenly came over her mouth muffling her screaming. She elbowed him in the rib and heard him gasp and mutter curse words but he didn't let go. He just shoved her forcefully, and she hit the floor hard, grazing her knees, and her Palms. Her elbows took most of the bruising because she used them to stop her fatal fall. He gave her a hard kick to the ribs and she felt something crack within her as she curled up in pain. Then he wa

    Jasmin stared down at April, taking in her bruised face as she ran her hand through April's hair."You fought hard, but it's time to finally rest April" she murmured and saw April's eyelashes flutter like she was about to wake up. Jasmin immediately pulled the pillow from underneath her head. Jasmine stared at her victim, the pillow she held hovering over April's face. Jasmin's heart pounded as sweat dripped down her temple, could she push through with it, if she woke up, Enrique would be lost to her forever. With resolution, Jasmin covered April's face with the pillow using all her might. April's hands went up feebly as she struggled to breathe. The heart machine beeped irrationally and Jasmin held on until she noticed that April's nails were not digging into her anymore."What are you doing" Katherine's voice boomed behind her startling her to her bone marrow. Jasmin whirled around with the pillow clutched tightly in her hands, eyes frantic as she forced her mouth to work.Katherine

    The days that followed were a flurry of different activities. They gave a press conference and went to court as the case progressed. Jasmin looked like a deranged person and kept casting evil glances at her throughout the trial. She didn't look like she was sorry at all for the crime she had committed. Well, she was going to end up in jail or an asylum so April didn't bother much.Kyle looked terrible, physically. He was wearing casts on his hands and legs. April remembered how hard he had hit her and decided that he deserved every hit Enrique dealt him. She wanted to add a few of her own if a chance presented itself. Brian couldn't look at her in court and Mr. Adams apologized profusely on his behalf. She couldn't blame their father tho. Sometimes no matter how much parents tried to raise their children right, they most certainly always chose the wrong path.He would be getting a light sentence compared to Jasmin and Kyle tho.April loved the judge on the case and the prosecutor.

    April stood in his garden taking deep breaths and clenching a file tightly in her hand. There was a tight feeling in her chest but no matter what, she was going to get what she wanted. He soon appeared managing to take her breath away the moment his eyes connected with hers. Her heart gave a wild thump in her chest and then fear crept in sending chills down her back. What If he left her? Would she be able to love anyone else again? There was a guarded look in his eyes but there was also that dark look of desire that made her blood tingle in her veins and desire to pool low and deadly. She wanted to do wicked things to him, with him."April..." He called and his voice was enough to make the ache and the pleasure grow deeper. Was this what they meant by saying love was both pain and pleasure. She wondered which came first.She stopped him holding up her hand."Before you speak another word I will speak first Enrique Alvaro," she said with finality and he nodded slowly watching her so i
