Eight months passed away, without him. But my love for Nicolas was still the same.A lot had happened in these eight months. After discharging from the hospital, my family rented a house in the town as our house in town was burned. My grandma left the town and went to her house in the village. And I was quite thankful for that.You could think that I'm rude but after the incident with Nicolas, my grandma was literally killing me with her words. She also cleared that she didn't want to see my face because I slept with Nicolas and she used to think that I was a slur and curse for the family. Though I felt so broken, my confidence in my love for Nicolas made me strong. I graduated from school two weeks ago. And now I was preparing to admit myself in a good college in the city. My parents also admitted my little brother Ellerie in a nearby kindergarten and he's so happy about that. Everyday he came to me with a new story about his new friends. Everything moved on but I couldn't. Even
"Natalia, get up! Come on!""Mom, please. Only three minutes more." I groaned and pressed my face on the pillow as my mother turned on the lights of my room."Okay. We're leaving for Florida without you then." I felt her shrug. "No!" I jumped off the bed and ran into the bathroom, avoiding the annoying light that was burning my vision. I quickly brushed my teeth and washed my face. When I was done freshing up, I changed my outfit into a loose white top and pair of black jeans. It was still dark outside. The cab driver helped us with our suitcases. As we all got into, the driver started the car.Cold morning breezes hit my face as I opened the window. Something inside me was telling that the trip is going to be awesome. It was not only about visiting a new place but also it was something else, like I was going to get back something in Miami which I lost before. But there was nothing I lost that I'd find in Miami. I mentally slapped myself. It was nothing but a stupid feeling.But I
Nicolas' POV:Eight months ago...I walked out of the hospital.My whole body gave up as I started feeling numb. I wanted to scream and destroy everything on my way but nothing came out. My head started pounding badly, my body was shaking and my eyes were burning. Stephen, Mariano, and Victor were waiting in the parking lot. When they saw me, they rushed toward me."What the fuck happened? Why are you bleeding?" Victor gasped."Gosh, he's messed up," Mariano murmured.I ignored them. I walked toward my car and got into it."Wait, you can't drive alone now!" Stephen yelled."I want to be alone." I gritted my teeth and started the engine.Before he could get to say anything, I drove away. ***I didn't know how much time had passed, but I found myself standing in front of my club. Stephen was right. I shouldn't have driven alone. I lost balance as my car hit a minibus. Luckily they were alright but I was injured badly. The warm blood was pouring down my spine rapidly. I couldn't fe
Stephen's POV:"Fuck!" I growled.Nicolas was left alone. He wasn't in a state of leaving alone. He was totally messed up. His body was shaking, blood dripping from his nose, and his eyes bloodshot."How could you let him go like that?" Mariano scolded me."Haven't you seen? Did I get any time to stop him? He was gone before I could do that." I sighed and rubbed my palms on my face.He could do anything right now. He's so fucking crazy and now he's insane after losing Natalia."Do you have any idea where he could go?" Victor questioned."No. Call our men. He could be in one of the warehouses." I hurried and got into the car, and so did Victor and Mariano.I started the engine and drove away.Victor and Mariano made some phone calls to our men in the warehouses but we got nothing.I hurriedly drove into the jungle to our secret warehouse. We searched everywhere but there was no sign of Nicolas.When we were about to get out, my phone buzzed. It was one of the guards from Nicolas' club.
Natalia's POV:"Are you alright, Ms. Rauf?" Richard's voice rang beside me and woke me up from daydreaming."Um... Yes, Mr. Ramirez. I'm alright. I think I saw someone familiar." I gave him a tight smile and got into the car before Richard started the engine.I kept my eyes on Stephen's car. He's ahead of us. We're going by the same road and that was a good sign. "Mr. Ramirez. Where are you going to take me?" I asked."You wanted to visit the beach. I think we can go there first." "But I'm not sure about that anymore.""Huh?" He looked at me like an idiot.I mentally laughed. "Nothing." I shrugged and concentrated on Stephen's car. No matter how I needed to get him. Nicolas could be in Florida too. A few minutes passed like that. Stephen's car was still ahead of us. But all my hope washed away in the drain when Stephen took a sharp turn to the left and Richard turned to the right."Wait!" I exclaimed suddenly.Richard immediately stopped the car and gawked at me."I mean, let's t
Passing the small hallway we came face to face with two gigantic bodyguards."Close your mouth." Richard jabbed me with his elbow and murmured."They're just too big." I quickly closed my mouth and cleared my throat."Show me your IDs." One of them demanded.We showed them our IDs but they looked at us suspiciously. The two guards silently passed their looks to each other."We're here to meet Stephen." I blurted out.Hearing Stephen's name their head snapped at me and observed me for a few moments. "You can go inside." One of the guards spoke and opened the large wooden door for us.As we walked inside, it felt like we were thrown into another universe.Slow erotic music was playing, and people in the room were drinking, and smoking shit as if their life depends on it.Most of the parts were dark in the large room. The dance floor was illuminated under neon lights. I don't know how many people were there because most of them were in the dark.I felt my heart stop beating. Suddenly I
"Natalia, stop!" I heard Nicolas growl but I didn't look back.I grabbed Richard's hand and started walking. But Richard stopped suddenly.When I looked back at Richard, I gasped in horror because Nicolas pressed a knife on Richard's throat and smirked down at me.Son of a bitch. Blood drained from Richard's face as he started sweating and his eyes went wide. His face looked like he was going to pee at any moment."You're still stubborn like before," Nicolas smirked at me. My blood boiled in anger. I hoped I could beat the shit out of him."Fuck off and let him go." I gritted my teeth and hissed."Where did you get this idiot? He's a piece of shit. And why the hell were you holding his hand?" He stared at me coldly.Huh? Was he for real? He's the one who let a girl straddle on his lap."Why do you care? I will do anything with anyone and it's none of your business." I spat harshly."God knows how much I missed fucking that smart and warm mouth." He rasped.Richard looked at me with
I was supposed to enjoy it in Miami. But here I was, crying my eyes out of their socket after locking up myself in my hotel room."He doesn't love me!" I cried out."Just shut the fuck up. It's all his fault. Why the fuck you locked yourself up? He'll definitely pay for this." Reema's voice boomed from my phone. "I've got an idea! " Marjan chirped."What idea?" I lazily rolled over the mattress. "Make him jealous." Marjan propounded."Huh, no way. I'm not gonna do that again. Once I wanted to make him jealous but I made things turn wrong and got into big trouble. Nick beat the shit out of that man." I rolled my eyes and scoffed. "But this is the only way you can make him feel worse. Just put on a short sexy dress and go to a club and flirt with some man. I'm sure Nicolas will follow you and he'll realize how it feels to see your lover grinding on someone else." Reema cackled. "Yeah, when he can sleep with other women while you are suffering, you obviously can do it. He doesn't de
