Dani POV

My alarm rang and my heart sank. It took me a second to make sense of my surroundings, after that I remembered where I was as my memory came rushing down like a tap. I sighed as I stood up from the bed, I needed to get ready, whatever it was that I was thinking off I needed to put it aside.

He wasn’t here in the room, but at the mirror stand I could see that he had ordered some clothes for me. I stood up and tried not to remember what he said yesterday or the previous things that made us argue like we were some couple.

I stared at myself as I saw my reflection.

I didn’t like the fact that she was here too.She has her head stuck in her phone like it was her body part. I wrapped my arms around Arthur, he shrugged but I didn’t care, I wanted to see how Danielle would react, Arthur is really difficult right now.I looked over to Danielle, expecting a reaction but she wasn’t even making any efforts. I did get a nudge or a side-eye. Not even a sneak. I glared at her but she didn’t even look back at me, I grinned my teeth, my attention was on her and no one else.Ding.The elevator doors opened and we walked out first, I scoffed as I was glad that she knew her place even with all that drama that Arthur acted back then. Danielle followed but she just wanted to get to her workstation, I could see the eagerness in her pace and how she avoided even the slightest eye contact.“You don’t know how much I enjoyed th

    Dani POV“Taxi!” i flagged down a taxi, the driver was a man who wore a starbuck t-shirt and had a pack of open dougnuts by the side.“Where to?” he asked as i entered.“Floral street.” I said and pulled my coat with me as i got comfortable, the cab was cleaner than seventy percent of the cabs in the city and i was happy with the turn out.“Oh, do you have a family down there?” he asked as he started the ride, i stared at him wondering how he knew that.“Oh, floral streets host one of the best family events, everyone is a big family down there, my mother stays there. I just figured that it may be that.” he said and i relaxed.“Yeah, i’m just going to see an old family friend.” i replied trying to hold up the conversation.The ride was short and not as bothersome as Pete the driver, didnt speak to me as he sang along to the song from the radio.“Thank you.” i said as i exited the cab, he waved and drove away and when i turned to the apartment bulding. It was made of strong red bricks a

And will you be going with him?” Lisa, my friend asked over the phone as I smiled.I had to adjust myself while they were working on my hair, I didn’t like the fact that they were wasting time. I couldn’t process my thoughts with how they all acted.“Give me a second please, I need to do something.” I said to Lisa as my eyes were around the room, I couldn’t understand why they all acted like some child.“Okay. I will be on hold.” Lisa said as I stood up.“Hands off!” I tutted as I looked around, Disgust took over my face.“How long will this take?” I yelled at every one of them and they all shook, all I did was turn my head and they were aligned.The silence was deafening, they were all rushing to get things done properly.“Sorry, Lisa. Sometimes they just need to be yelled out. I am tired.” I rolled my eyes and I sat back down. I shook my head as I waited for them to continue with my hair and may the good lord help the

    Dani POV (5 hours before the masked event)I was in Mary-Ann’s place putting away some of the cookies i had made into the fridge when a knock came. I was sure that Mary-ann told me that she wasn’t expecting visitors, neither was my mother nor I.“Robert?” I frowned as i tried to make sense as to why he was here. I opened the door after stepping away from the peep hole to stare at Robert who was grinning widely at me.“Hey Dani.” he greeted with a wave, he didnt make any move to come closer to the door instead his eyes twinkled in excitment.“Why are you here and I didn't mean that in a bad way, I am just surprised.” he glanced down at his watch and i wondered if he was actually in a hurry to go someplace.“Oh come on, relax, will you? I am just here to run some emergency errands.” he said and i felt relieved.“Oh that makes sense-” I replied as the sound of footsteps neared me.“Who is there?” my mother said as she came around.“Oh its Robert-” i replied opening the door wider and Ro

He had picked me up not long after i was done taking pictures for Emily and while he assured me that everything would be fine, i didnt think i was going to be. Even in the thousand dollar dress and makeup that transformed me into someone bolder than the usual me, it wasnt enough to calm my nerves. I was going to be around people in far more expensive dresses, with more elegant makeup and where of more importance than i am, and that was where the problem lied. I was going to be in a sea of people who were going to start judging me the moment i stepped foot insied the hall.“Dani-” my head snapped to Robert who was staring at me, my eyes moved to the glass behind him and i swallwoed when i realized that we were here. The flashes from the camera went off as others climbed the stairs and made sure to give their best sides to the camera.“Look

It was also a way to get Dani off my mind, we stopped at where one of my business associates was.“Arthur King,” he greeted with a slight nod, he was with a slightly older woman, more older than he was and there was something in his eyes are they moved from me to Juliet who was pressed up beside me. His lips curled into a smile as they lingered on Juliet which made me narrow my eyes on him.“Denver, i suggest you keep your eyes on what actually matters.” i said firmly and Denvers attentiont turned to me, not hiding that he had been checking Juliet out. “Looks like Greece has done you well,” i said and he nodded in agreement.“Oh, you have no idea.

He had come back for me, to get me to back back to what i did to him.“Arthur!!” Zachary yelled from behind me but i kept on walking as wheels turned in my head. “Wait the hell up!” He grabbed my upper hand and yanked me but the persons face i saw was Danielle.“What?!” I snapped, not caring if they all saw me loose.“Where are you going? You can’t just keep leaving me in the dark. At least tell me what you have planned.” Dani stated with strong words but it wasn’t going to work so i laughed. I laughed not at her but at the entire situation.“Don’t you get it Dani, if my father had Ava and your mother, there is no plan. There is nothing i can think off that’ll work- its always a loosing game with him. He knows me

They had taken Ava.“Arthur, what is happening?” She asked as she followed behind me, my hands ran through the screen of my phone hitting numbers that should be around, it was a good sign that she did not know just yet-“I’m not moving one more step until you tell me what is going on.” She halted with both hands by her side as she stared at me, she could sense that something was wrong.“I know you are worried but i can explain on-” Her phone buzzed in her hands, and with a reluctant gaze she stared at her screen and in seconds her eyes widened.“

He was a man over six foot and had no bald hair, infact his grey hair was neatly styled on his head and the wrinkles on his face was highly controlled. His dark hazel eyes were electrifying that even as he stared at Arthur and I, i felt more to be of his target.“I’ve told you to call me Alex, son.” He replied and shook his hands with a small hug as though they’ve been friends for a long time.“Where is Patricia?” Arthur asked as Alex gaze shifted to me, he took my hand and placed a kiss to the back of them.“She’ll be here any mom-” A woman with Aubrun hair and dark red dress hurridely stepped outside.“Babe, i told you to wait for me.”“Our guest are here already, i didnt have to wait for you before attending to them but i’m sorry.

I could count the number of times Arthur was worried by something and he never lost his composure, but this time, it felt different. He was disturbed, and he didnt seem to have it under control.I had been so carried away by what I was seeing that I didn’t notice him slacking behind and now he had probably seen something that would cause his mood to be foul for the rest of the day.With guilt eating my stomach, I walked towards him with my brows furrowed. He raised his head just before I got to him and just like always he tried to hide it but it was too late.“Hey, is everything okay?”“I should be asking you that question,” I countered and his brows shut up.“What do you mean-““No lies Arthur, I saw your face, you saw something really unpleasant. What did you see?” He stared at me, either stunned to speak or trying to come up with an a

I had passed out on the couch with her resting on me and it was one of the best sleep I’ve had in weeks. Even though my legs hurt from not having a place to properly rest, it was worth it.My body had given out to the stress from the past couple of days and it was clear that i needed the rest. I checked the time on the wall and realized we still had four more hours until it was dawn, meaning two things. I either go back to sleep or i begin my day.“What are you thinking about?” She was awake. Her eyes were still closed making me wonder how she could tell.“How-”“Your heartbeat, it started racing few seconds ago-” she paid attention to the little things and it marvelled me.“Sorry if i disrupted your sleep.” I apologized as she sat up.“Its fine, are you okay?” She asked while brushing her hair carefully behind her ears.“Yes- its just two a.m. meaning you need to get more sleep

I was going to forgive them and move on just so i can get her back but she said that she didnt deserve to be with me, that she could do so much better, and that i was carried away with everything that had happened in the past and not focused on her.”“Arthur-”“I blame myself for it but it hurt after telling both of them seperately that i had started seeing a therapist already. It hurt because i trusted them so much, all jake did was gloat and after Juliet realized i wasn’t running after her like she imagined, she started running to me. Seeing her face was enough pain on its own, my mind always brought back the images of of the both of them- and the funny thing is that they did it in our room back in college-”“Arthur, I’m so sorry.” I muttered, it was horrible watching your best friend and girlfriend lie to you and betray you- my heart ached for Arthur.

I barely slept and all I did was stare at my door waiting for either my father to come through it and drag me out or my mother to hold me and tell me she was sorry for leaving me alone.” He admitted and I turned to him, he was playing with the strap of the silver watch on his wrist.“I also wanted to see Zachary come in through the doors and tell me that everything I had done was not my fault but it never happened. I blame myself for everything that happened between us- it's safe to say that we both need professional help.” He joked at the end but now that he mentioned it, it wouldn't be a bad idea.“It's not going to be bad.” My hands slipped to his and with a gentle squeeze he turned to me, with a smile. “So, mind telling me abo
