After I cried my heart out, we got up then Luke pinched me on the cheek. I pouted my lips while he wiped my tears.

"Alora, promise me that whenever you feel bad about something, if you're mad at me, if I did something you don't like or if I hurt your feelings, you will tell me okay? Don't keep it to yourself. And about Peggy, Emily and Nina, don't you think it's unfair that you don't consider them as your friends? I think you should also talk to them. You need to open up, I know they will understand you."

Luke is right. The girls are always there for me. I just don't want anyone to let in my world because I'm afraid. I'm a coward.

The door of the rooftop suddenly opened and when we looked back, the girls barged in. Nina is still panting. Maybe she run towards here.

"Girls, what are you doing here?" I asked.

"Well, Emily called and told me you run out of the classroom after kissing that guy. So, I was running around looking for you." Nina looks

    After we chat, we went back to our class. I didn't see Luke the whole afternoon. I wonder where he is and what he's doing. The class is almost over, and the last subject is a group study. It means, the teacher is not around so the students will have to study together. I looked at my watch and it's 3 in the afternoon. 1 more hour and we're done. The party will start at 9pm so after class I still have 5 hours to prepare. Why am I getting nervous? Luke and I already talked about this. We just need to make it official. "Hey, princess. What's on your mind? I hope you're thinking of me." I was startled when I heard Luke. "You're here. But why didn't you look for me earlier? You said you'll find me." I pouted. "I want you to spend time with your friends. Don't worry I missed you too." He smiled before giving me a peck on the cheek. I blushed. I feel glad seeing him in front of me. "Before I forget, my driver will bring you to Northbay and another car will fo

    After choosing my dress, Azalea packed the other 9 dresses for me to take home. Peggy and Emily also bought a dress for them to wear at the party. Then we bought Nina a dress as well. She doesn't want a new dress because it was too expensive. She was asking if we can lend her an old gown instead, but we decided to buy one for her. When we went out of Azalea, Peggy and Emily's driver are already waiting so we said our goodbyes and they left. We will see each other later anyway. I asked Nina to come to our house instead so we can go to the party together. We chat for a while, and we didn't notice that it's time for us to prepare. I started getting nervous. Only 2 more hours and I will be officially become Luke's fiancé. My heart is pounding nonstop and my whole body is getting tense. I took a deep breath to release my tension. Nina held my hand and smiled. I smiled back. We heard a knock on the door and to my surprise, it was my mother and sister. Nina smiled,

    3RD PERSON POV "Luke, kiss me. I want you to kiss me." Alora slightly parted her lips and wait for his kiss. He pulled her body against his then brushed her lips with his and slid his tongue across her lips. She let out a deep breath in reaction to the wave of heat she felt. He gently brushed his tongue between her lips then passionately kissed her, stroking her tongue with his. He sucked her lips gently, as though he was tasting nectar in a flower. Then, with extreme urgency, he deepened the kiss by passing his tongue through her lips, fondling her tongue with his. She felt thrilled. Alora's body heat up and craved him. He heard a soft moan from her in response to his kiss. He then pulled back a little before he loses control. They were both panting after an intense kiss. "I think we're here. We'll continue later baby." Luke smiled teasingly. Alora blushed. She fixed her hair and make-up then signaled to Luke that she's ready. A re

He put her on the bed of the master's bedroom and sit on the side. She looked directly into his eyes but still no words from her. Her breathing was ragged. Her hand still on her chest. He held her hand and caressed her cheek with the other. "Baby, calm down. Would you like me to call a doctor?" He asked with a worried face. She shook her head and stared at him. She slightly parted her lips to say something, but no word

    The bathroom inside the master's bedroom is the largest one with a whopping 953 square feet complete with a diamond shaped soaking tub, marble and gold finishing’s, a plethora of luxurious cushions and has Hermes toiletries and perfumes in a lavish vanity. I looked myself in the mirror. Why am I feeling like this? I was the one who teased Luke earlier and now I was also the first one who invited him to join me in the shower. How do I really feel about him? Is it just lust or is this love? I am unable to differentiate the two for now. What I know is I don't want to be apart from Luke. I was the one who asked my parents to live with him. They didn't like the idea at first. My brothers were so against it. That's when I told them what happened. My father was fuming mad and wanted to call off the engagement, but I told them the truth. I told them I was the one who provoked him, and I wanted it. I saw my mom cried again but my sister had a different reaction. She w

    Chapter 17 – Home"What are you thinking Princess?" I didn't hear Luke coming into the bathroom. He's standing at my back and slid his arms into my waist then kissed my shoulders. I was still standing in front of the mirror so I can see his every movement. The mirror added heat to my already burning body. "Luke, please don't apologize for what we did. I know I provoked you, so I feel like I forced you to do it with me." Just remembering him saying sorry to my parents pained my heart. "Baby, you didn't force me. I wanted it. You can't imagine how I wanted it badly, you just took the initiative. Giving yourself to me was a gift and being your first is the greatest pleasure of my life. Thank you for making me so happy." My worries fade away when he said that and turned around so I can face him. I hooked my arms into his neck and smiled at him. I realized he's already naked and felt his erection. I smiled teasingly and bit my lower lip. "Would you like to do i

    THIRD POV"Are you sure about that?" Luke asked.She curved her lips and frowned, trying to remember the man she had seen that day. It was a vivid image because she was knocked out, but there was something on the man's face that she clearly remembered.She nodded to confirm her statement. "He's Peggy's father. Do you remember when we met the man to ask about Peggy's whereabouts? I felt something weird toward him. I noticed there was a deep scar on his left eyelid. The man in the woods had the same scar like Benjamin's. And he also asked something weird that day.""What did he ask you?" Sophie asked."He asked me if I remember him. I was confused and told him it was my first time meeting him. I ignored what happened because I thought he just mistook me for someone, but thinking back, maybe he meant the day he injected me with the serum." Luke walked to the other side of the table and sat on the swivel chair. And was in deep thought.Benjamin Miller, CEO of Miller International Securit

    After the party, I put the twins to sleep and kissed them good night. Luke, Percy and Sophie waited for me in the study."That serum, do you remember what happened after they inject it into you?" Luke asked.I tried to remember, but nothing came to my mind so I shook my head."I think I passed out after that then—" I paused then frowned.Luke held my hand. "Don't push yourself, baby. Just try to remember what you can."I nodded. "When you help me escape, I think I met a man who injected me with that serum. After that, I just remembered running and that's when I was caught by our kidnappers.""And you killed them?" Sophie followed.I nodded again. "I just remember feeling scared at one point, then that fear suddenly changed into a rage when they told me about killing the three of you.""When you wake up, did you remember anything? Anything at all?" Luke asked again.I disagreed by shaking my head.Percy was on his iPad, searching for something. Then he exclaimed. "Found it!"We settle o

My husband supported Jayden in his search for her, but the clues we got would eventually vanish along with the traces of Peggy.When almost everyone was busy dealing with the missing Flousian princess, I was busy with myself. I felt like the voices in my head were arguing. I knew already that I'm crazy, that my mind was messed up, and only the little one inside me was keeping my sanity.I didn't tell Luke about what I had found out about myself. I knew he would understand because my husband was a selfless man, especially if it concerned me. He loved me more than his life and that scared me the most. I knew he would still forgive me if I told him the truth."Why don't you tell your husband about yourself? It's a betrayal of trust if you lied to him." Camila said while I'm sitting in front of the mirror."I'm not lying. He didn't ask me about anything so how could I lie to him. I haven't denied anything to him." I insisted.Cam

    I stood up when I felt Luke was sleeping quietly. I went to the bathroom and looked at myself in the mirror.“So it was you all along. Are your memories starting to come back? Or are you still wandering in the dark?” It was Camilla who was staring directly at me.“Some of it. Maybe most of them.” I smirked.“I love seeing your face like that. So what are your plans now? Can you really control yourself? Did you remember what really happened in Creepy Willow Forest?” Camila asked.I nodded, giving her a mischievous grin.“It was me. Not you.

    "Elizabeth?" I mumbled with trembling lips. She crouched down and stared into my eyes. Her eyes were like mine, silver yet it was sparkling like crystals. I was shocked when she suddenly grabbed my face with her hand. I'm not sure if it hurts "I hate those eyes of yours. They were like from some dead girl. You were so lucky to have everything yet you are not happy. Your parents, your siblings, friends, your boyfriend and now you are having a baby." She said in a cold tone while looking down my belly. I suddenly feared her. Somehow, she was different. She wasn't the Elizabeth I knew. She was colder than Camila, her aura was darker and eerie. "Elizabeth, you're scaring me. What happened to you?" I asked, trying not t

I know what her point was. I've been dealing with DID because of what happened to me when I was a kid and was mad at the people who made me like this.

    The first time I met Camila was in the forest. I was terrified at that time and fear was always with me whenever we talked about her ever since. The second time was at the party. I still felt the same towards her, terrified with her coldness and evilness. However, now that we are meeting for the third time, I couldn't feel any fear towards her. I realized she was using it against me. If I lived in fear she would just keep on threatening us. She always tells me that she likes my eyes. I noticed that every time she felt excited and thrilled was the time that I was showing my weakness and fear towards her. I wouldn't allow that anymore. Especially with the baby in my belly. I was staring at her directly to her eyes from the moment she entered the room. I wanted to rush into her and strangle her like what I did to the young Santelmo. But I felt Luke's grip tighte

    I was just listening to him and was surprised about the history of their family with the Wilson's. One of the guards walked towards Luke and gave some files before Paulo was able to continue. "Alfonso Santelmo, your great great grandfather. The most influential man back in the 1970's. He was friends with Matthew Wilson, my father's grandfather. Alfonso was imprisoned because of the rape and murder of Agatha Wilson, Matthew Wilson's sister. Alfonso died in 1980. He was beaten and stabbed to death." It was Luke who continued. Paulo didn't say a word but I could see that he was surprised. He didn't expect that Luke knew something about it. The case file of Alfonso Santelmo was erased from the police's database and no one knows how. I'm not really sure how Luke found out about it.
