CHAPTER 109: BREWING CHAOSIt was a total riot. What she was seeing was a wreckage. There are a lot of screaming that seems to go on and on and on. She could hear it, but Yna couldn’t see, but envisioned only what was happening. Her left shoulder was throbbing. A white hot pain cascade down on her core. She was whimpering, and was crying. But in spite of those noise and clamors that was surrounding Yna, she still manage to hear Zachary’s voice. “Y—Yna!” He sounded worried. Yna wanted to tell him that she was just alright, but she couldn’t. There is this force that seems to be stopping her from doing so.“Z—zach...” In a weak voice, that is what she was only capable to say. Why does she sounded as if she was trembling? What had happened? But most of all, what troubles Yna greatly was the fact that she was in so much pain that she couldn’t explain, and everything, her body hurts rather badly. “W—what’s happening…” Confounded she asked. That’s when it all dawn to Yna. She had be
CHAPTER 110: LOSING HERSELF “You did not hurt yourself, didn’t you?” Zamiel asked. Italia laughs softly. “Geez, stop worrying, it wasn’t as if you didn’t saw that not even a shard graze my palms, Zam.” She rolled her eyes playfully, regardless of the heaviness she was carrying on her chest. “Did I say I was referring to a wound?” With that said, the latter lifted his head. He was frowning. Italia’s smile faltered. “W—what...”“I know what you feel.” Zamiel sighs. He reached out, and softly touched her head in a comforting manner. “I know my cousin could be a bastard sometimes.” He added, and chuckled as if to lighten up the mood. “Zam...” Italia trailed off, before she turned her head sideways. “How long had you known?”“Way back in college,” Zamiel stood up. “I know that the two of you had a thing—”“That’s why you were never surprise to see me here one day living with him, right?” Italia confronted him.“Yes.” Before his forehead ceased. “But what I couldn’t understand was w
CHAPTER 111: THE OTHER WOMANHow can another woman same as her be present there? It was unusual that she found herself following the sound where it was coming from. The laugh lead her be to a garden where the roses blooms as it bathed towards the golden array of the sun. When she woke up the next day, Italia was alone. The sun was already shining brightly, and the empty space beside her was cold. The traje de boda was nowhere to be seen, and everything seems to be already neatly arrange as if yesterday were nothing, but all dreams of lust, and repine longing that Gustavio could still be soften by her. She sighs. The double doors of her room opened. “Miss.” It was Tristan, her personal butler. “Mr. Salvador ask me to send you at the dining table.”“Tell him that I wasn’t in the mood—”“It was an order, Miss.”Her fist curled up, and clenched. “An order, huh?”Italia doesn’t like the sound of it, but what can she do? Whose fault was it to be here kissing Gustavio Enriquez Salvador
CHAPTER 112: TAKENIt didn’t take long. Half an hour, multiple unfamiliar cars screeched to a halt right outside the Mason’s mansion. The guards who were on duty looked baffled, they were dumbstruck especially, when men who were clad on expensive black suit marched as if they own the place.“Who are you? Leave this instant or we’re calling the police!”“You can’t just barge in here…!”“What’s all with the commotion?” When Mathew Mason, Anna’s father heard that unknown men were marching into his mansion, he rushed out, but fear engulfs him when he took a peek.They looks intimidating, that mad him scared shitless—but who the hell sent them?“We wanted Anna Mason. Give her to us and nobody needs to be hurt.”Mathew realizes something.Who else would want that little wrench of a daughter he has anyway?Of course it had to be that old man, who had paid for her the previous night! The fact that he fancy Anna made him disgusted at the same time relieved because he gain a lot by selling her,
CHAPTER 113: SOLD WARNING FOR 18+ This may involve scenes that is not appropriate for a young reader.Everything was a mess, even Iwas in the state of shock for what happened. The large bed in the presidential suite I was lured in was crumpled, evidently suggesting about what occurred last night.Clothes lay on the floor, tattered dress, undergarments, socks and shoes thrown carelessly.Anna felt fear while staring at the man’s godly features, although his eyes was glaring at her viciously. His gaze are intense as if he wanted to kill her and the coldness coming from them sent chills to the bone.He was mad, he was beyond furious as he clutch her wrist—hard.“You fucking wrench! How dare you tricked me?!” He didn’t, she was the one who had been tricked by her own parents.“Get the hell out of here or I will fucking tear you into shreds!” His voice thunders across the room.“Ouch!” Anna flinched, when he harshly let go of her hand.A throbbing pain made her fumbled, but she worries mo
CHAPTER 114: ABDUCTION, BETRAYED‘If you wanted to know about her. Come meet us, we’ll text the address.’That is what the text sent to Anna contain. It came from her mother, no, she is not her mother. It came from Mrs. Mason, who was persuading Anna to meet her to the address she sent. It is the same hospital, where Dr. Mendoza told her. Her birthplace, and she was using the fact that she knows something about her real mother.“Tch.” Anna clicked her tongue.She is no fool.It is a bait. Mrs. Mason of course wanted something in return just like what she always do. She would ask for money, the greedy Mason’s who thinks that Anna is too stupid to fall on their trap.They never learn, didn’t they?She’s also no oblivious that they lost their company. After being released from prison, Mr. Mason faced charges coming from the investors. They are pulling their shares only to find out that there’s nothing left. Their money has been liquidate and it was lost to Mathew’s pocket. Enraged, they
Had fate been playing their lives?Last night, Eliot promised that if Raquel wouldn’t ask for his help, then he wouldn’t forced her to, but seeing her inside the company he owns gave him another reason to approach her. This was their 3rd coincidental meeting.Raquel.But his trance didn’t last long. Eliot could feel his blood boiling with anger upon seeing whom she is with.“Oh, I wanted this one! Doesn’t this look great, Raq?” It was the woman, who hurt Raquel before. “Buy this for me!”She looks happy, while Raquel seems like she was forcing herself to smile again. Her face dim, her smile faltering.“Do you have a set of this diamond ring?” The woman asked again.Seeing the panic embracing her eyes, Eliot found himself intervening.“Justin.” Eliot looked at his manager. “I’ll take it from here.”“Yes, Sir.” His manager excuse himself.Eliot faced the two.The woman who was with Raquel faced him curiously.“I’m Eliot Duke, the owner of this store, how may I help you?” He flashed a s
“Mr. Salvador wanted you to join him for breakfast.” It is one of Romanov’s men, who had greeted Anna earlier that morning.She was groggy. Her eyes are red, and her temples are throbbing for an upcoming headache. Sleep deprived, black bags hang underneath her eyes. The stubborn Anna wanted to refused, but she knew that she can’t live last long, if she do that. If she dies her, her efforts to provoke Romanov and take revenge to the Mason’s would only be futile. Thinking of her mother’s triumphant eyes last night made her blood boil in anger. Just you wait and see. “O—okay, I’ll go.” Anna swallowed her fear. “Follow me.”The man leads all the way, and it was the first time she had allowed herself to see and peer what the Salvador’s are proud of. The floor is made of marbles, and the walls are painted in a royal blue shade, while the ceiling seems crafted by most skilled artist. It held a magnificent view of angels, and a few men on their feet. It looks…beautiful. Anna whispered.
