Leia's POV

I was still looking into the crowd when a fucker passed by. My drink splattered but the fucker did not stop. I was enraged and I turned around in pursuit.

“Hey gorgeous! I think we should take care of this mess first. Shall we?” The guy who had brought the drink said in an extremely gentle voice that made me stop.

It took a while for me to realize what he’s talking about. I noticed his eyes fixated on my chest. I trailed his gaze and there was a red stain on my breast area. The wine had spilled on me.

Instinctively, I reached for the hem of my jacket and pulled it closer to cover myself up properly.

“Don’t bother, I’ll pass.” My voice came out cold as ice and walked past him.

I felt his hand on my wrist and he pulled me slightly, “let me bother. A beautiful lady like you shouldn’t walk about all messed up."

I looked at him and chuckled. He didn't look like someone who would give up easily.

Following his lead, we got to the restroom. He brought out a small cleanser from h

    Leia's POVRichard wound his hand around my wrist and pulled me to God knows where and I couldn't stop him. Each time I tried to struggle, I ended up staggering, giving him a reason to hold me closer to himself.“Let... Me go..." I yelled but my voice came out in a whisper.He led me far away from the party and with the way he moved, it was obvious he knew exactly where he was taking me. “S... Stop..." What was his name again, I had forgotten.His grip loosened around my wrist and I fell to the floor. Even in my drunken state, I tried to crawl out_ a stupid idea, but that was the only thing that came to my distorted head. He grabbed me roughly by the arm and continued to drag me away. We got to one of the castles and it was deserted. He led me into one of the rooms and on getting there he tossed me on the bed. It felt as though the whole world spinned as I landed roughly on the bed. I stood up very fast_ too fast. I fell to the floor just as my legs hit the ground.He jacked me up

    Jericho"How is she?" I asked the doctor who I had called in to check on Leia."She is drunk and I also detected hard drugs in her blood but she will be fine in no time," the doctor responded and I stared at Leia. She was sleeping soundly with a bag of fluid flowing dropwisely into her vein. The doctor bowed and took his leave. I walked towards the window and stared into space with a heavy heart. I remembered Leia's outburst on our wedding day. Who knew she was right, her father had dug his own downfall by selling her out to Banda Della.Gradually, darkness took over and the crowd began to disperse. The doctor returned and took care of Leia. He disconnected the fluid and left. My phone beeped severally but I was not in the mood. I switched it off and returned to the window. I watched the workers as they began cleaning up. For me, this was the gloomiest memorial party we have ever had.Suddenly, I felt a soft tap on my shoulder. I turned around swiftly and Leia tripped in the proces

    Leia’s POV, The chirping sound of birds made me realize it was morning. The golden rays of the sun reflected into the room making it beautiful. ‘Beautiful’ is that adjective I never thought I would ever use because nothing has ever been beautiful in my life but Yesternight, Jericho introduced me to a side I never knew existed in our dark world. Everything was just... colorful. A smile played on my face as I remained under the sheets with Jericho and I cuddling. His arms were wrapped around my waist and my eyes were fixed on his sleepy face. I hadn’t taken my eyes off him throughout the night and even now. I just couldn’t. His sleeping composition looks so much like a fine work of art that I couldn't resist, his gentle snores were like my favorite music. I reached out my hands and began running my index from his forehead down to his high bridge nose and when my eyes rested on his lips. I wanted so badly to kiss the hell out of him. I don’t want to see this as an obsession but

    AlexI was taken aback by Aldina's confession. It struck Jericho hard also but he was too enraged to pursue it. Love has always remained a complicated thing for me, that is why I have shielded myself from falling in love. I lived my life freely without any entanglement nor commitments.My mind went back to Jericho and Leia, I just prayed things would work out between them. Jericho was definitely angry but I am sure he wasn't angry with Leia and this time he wouldn't mess up.He ignored my call and he switched off his phone when I did not stop calling. I knew he was at the penthouse with Leia but I needed his invitation else, I would be an intruder.It's been a long time since I smoked but I feel inclined to do it. I made my way into my apartment late in the night with a cigarette stuck in between my lips.An issue was tugging at my heart and I did not want to dwell on it. It was Rya.

My lukewarm life was about to get interesting.I clenched my fists as the pilot announced that we had arrived in Dallas. I was running out of patience. I’d never been a man of patience. As soon as the plane landed, I dashed out like a stag, no need to wait for the guards to open the door for me because I came alone. I headed towards the white limo which was already stationed for me.

    AlexAs soon as the words escaped my lips, I realized what I had done. Leia's eyes shone wide in surprise. “You mean Rya?" she asked with curiosity. She had a lopsided grin on her face that made her look funny.“You know what? never mind, let's leave this place," I forced a smile, but she didn't look like she was having it.“What? you don't want to talk about Rya anymore?” she nudged me with her shoulder. "You know, I wouldn't be surprised if the two of you are actually dating behind my back” "We aren't!" I defended myself, already getting a bit embarrassed. Lin stood by the side and her attention was focused on the phone call she was engaged in."Yet” she corrected and I frowned."You are lucky though. Rya wouldn't just kiss a random man. You've got charmed” She grinned harder.“Can you not..."She didn't let me finish. “Can I not do what? I don't think you understand how much of a big deal this is. You should totally ask her out, Alex."“But...."“Hey," she chuckled. “It's fine.

    Alex's POVIt wasn't too long before I discovered that Jericho wasn't in the penthouse. He said he was going to sleep over at the penthouse but he's nowhere to be found. I knew he must have gone back to Leia. I smiled faintly as I made my way out. I just wanted to check on him before getting on my way, I had informed him that I would be visiting Dallas today. I was glad when he didn't inquire about the purpose of my visit but my gladness was cut short when he responded."Count it your long due vacation but you must be back before my date with Leia… Bastard, when you get her, treat her well but I know you can't stay committed, you ain't a one woman's man… are you?" My eyes shone in disbelief and I wondered how he got to know.I made my way out of the still and empty office. I bounced into my car and drove down to the airport.

    Rya's POVI smiled and chuckled as I drove back to the Vatos mansion. Thinking about Alex and driving could get me into an accident but I was able to pull it off.Even though I’d faked a dope facade, my heart leapt as I laid my eyes on him. I don’t know if it was the astonishment of seeing him here in Dallas or because of the guilt I felt after forcing a kiss on him. It didn’t occur to me that he could have probably come here for something else since he was in a club rather than my house and we must have met on pure coincidence. My adrenaline rose like crazy when he eventually demanded an explanation about the kiss we shared back in Italy. Deep down I knew it wasn’t just a random kiss, I mean, I don't go about kissing every man.At first I didn't want to tell the truth and that was why I tried playing cocky but he easily beat me at it and made me admire the... should I say the truth?
