POV: Victoria

“I have nothing to hide from you Victoria. I love you so much and that is all you need to know. Now answer my question immediately!

Does he have anything to do with Claire’s disappearance, is he using my daughter for his business transactions?” She asked again, sounding more firm and furious. I refused to look into her eyes because I didn’t want her to see my tears.

I know she doesn’t like him and she had never approved of my relationship with him. But that is not enough reason to accuse him of something so despicable. He has done nothing but rendered assistance to us. If he ever hears that he is being accused of using my sister for his business, it would infuriate him even more. It’s bad enough that I was going to pawn his diamond ring to save my sister. Now this!

“That is absurd, ma’am!

My boss would never stoop so low to involve himself in human trafficking. If you know anything about Raphael Hawkins, then you would know that he is a disciplined man who has fought

    POV: Victoria “I know, I know…It was so stupid of me, I don’t know what I was thinking, I just wanted to get Claire out. I should never have lied to you, Raphael. U was so stupid, it’s all my fault!” I confessed, tears prickling the corners of my eyes. “I didn’t think. I was just… lost. I still am. I don’t know what I’m doing anymore, I don’t even know who I am anymore. I thought I had it all figured out, I used to think that am strong enough to handle any challenge that life throws at me. But I don’t think I can do it anymore, I’m tired and broken. I’m hanging on a thin thread here, I’m barely holding it together as it is. If I happen to face a more frustrating event alone, I may lose my sanity, Raphael. I don’t know how you do it, I don’t know how you do everything for your family without complaints. How do you don’t?” I asked him, my voice calm but curious, with a bit of seduction to my words. I think I’m beginning to love and appreciate him more and value his presence even mor

    POV: Victoria As I hung up the phone, I felt a flicker of relief mixed with the heaviness still clinging to me. I sank onto the couch, drawing my knees up to my chest, staring at the empty spot where the diamonds had once rested. It was a hollow reminder of what I had lost. And it’s not only the ring but the trust between me and Dominic. I hope in my heart that he forgives me for being such a burden. I’m pretty sure that if he had known that my family would turn out to be so troublesome, he would never have asked me to be his pretend girlfriend. All I’ve done since is cause him trouble and heartache. It’s as if I am troubling myself because it seems like the issues in my family have no solution, I am surrounded by unending problems and I am so ashamed to even look into his eyes and ask for forgiveness.Minutes turned into an hour, and still, he was not there yet. I thought he changed his mind, I thought he decided to teach me a lesson by not showing up to be with me. But finally, a

    POV: Miguel “Have you found her Miguel, have you seen your sister?” Mom asked me as I stepped out of my private jet and walked towards her.“I’m fine mom, thanks for asking,” I responded in a sarcastic tone, throwing my arms around her and chuckling excitedly as I pecked her cheeks on both side, hugging her tightly. She chuckled with me, realizing her mistake and kissing me back excitedly. “I’m so sorry, Miguel, I’m just so worried about your sister. It’s your twenty-fifth birthday next week and I still have no blue where she could be. It’s twenty five years already, twenty five years without my beautiful baby girl,” she sobbed in my arms, bringing tears to my eyes. Ever since I could understand words, my parents have never stopped talking about their beautiful baby girl that was stolen in the hospital. Since i found out that I has a twin sister, I have not stopped searching for her. All I have is a picture from my moms phone, a picture of when she was just two days old in the hosp

    POV: Miguel “Oh, I can help! What’s her name?” she asked excitedly. Her enthusiasm was infectious. I couldn’t help smiling along with her. Looking closely, I don’t think she is the same age as me. She is younger than me, way younger than me. Just that she is looking so unkempt and hungry, I wonder if he is starving her on purpose. “Marisol,” I replied, the name bittersweet on my lips. The smile disappeared on my face as I mentioned her name. I can’t believe I’d wasted my time to come here, she is obviously not the one I’m looking for. Although if I must admit, she is quite cute and cheerful.She has the same round face as Marisol, the same dark, curly hair, and cute dimples. I’d used pictures of her that were sent to me to recreate her picture as a baby. She looked so much like my sister as a baby, it’s hard to imagine that I’m making a mistake again. As I looked at her, I tried to see if I could find any similarities between us, no matter how little. But there was none…Mom had sa

    POV: MiguelThe tears filled her eyes and spilled down her cheeks, I wondered in my heart if I was making a mistake by asking her these questions. What if there is nothing I can do to help her, what if he gets to finds out that I was here and he decides to punish her for my mistakes? Dominic can be so petty sometimes. It’d be a mess if he found out I got involved in this. But then again, I can’t keep mute and let her keep thinking that she is in the right place she needs a ue as to why she was brought here. I just hope in my heart that she is not one of those stubborn kids who won’t listen to people's advice after they make their own decisions. “Why are you here, Claire? Do you realize that Dominic is a very dangerous man and he can decide to turn you into his personal whore or a stripper in his club?Did your mom and your sister agree to this arrangement, did they sell you to him?” I asked her, holding her hands and looking into her eyes as if I could get the answer to my questions

    POV: Miguel “I should have known that I could never sneak around your building while you were around.” I responded coyly, smirking at him. “Yeah, you should have.” He scoffed back at me, his back still leaning on the tree up ahead. “What gave me away, your cameras or guards?” I asked him, earning a chuckle.“Are you fucking kidding me right now?Do you fucking know who you are?;” he asked, more like yelling at me actually. I looked at him curiously, wondering what he was talking about. “Wow!Just wow!” He chuckled once more, shaking his head pitifully.“Well, since you obviously do not know who you are, I guess a history lesson is in order, asshole!” he cursed at me, glaring daggers at me.“You are Miguel Myers, the only child of the Myers family and heir to the Myers empire. Your family is the richest family in this city, your ancestors lived in this city, they practically built this city from the ground. You own stocks and bonds in every bank in this city, you control half of th

To thinks that he could have grabbed back what was stolen from him all this while, but he decided to sit back and let Carlos do all the hard work and secure deals for his empire. When he has done all the hard work, then Dominic will step in and snatch everything from him. He is practically taking his time to craft a perfect revenge that would drain Carlos of everything he has toiled for. You know, I didn’t even know that our businesses in this city are still operational. I had no idea that my managers were funding and aiding trafficking in this city. I’d been so invested in searching for Marisol that I didn’t have time to pay close attention to the inflow and outflow of cash in my company. If only Marisol had been here, she would have handled some of these tasks while I focused on the other businesses. Our parents abandoned their propert

    POV: Miguel “I got the address boss, I’ve forwarded all the information I found to your email.” He told me proudly. I was sitting in a fancy little restaurant, sipping from a cup of coffee and snacking on some cupcakes. I smiled to myself as I thought of her smiles and her advice for me to have some coffee and cupcakes after leaving the premises.She is such a kind soul, her beauty is unmatched and her kind heart is exceptional. I couldn’t stop thinking about her, I was determined to help her even if I knew deep in my heart that it was going to get messy if Dominic found out I was trying to separate him from his girl. His message came in a few minutes after his call and I opened it immediately to see where I would be heading to after I'd had my brunch. It was an estate not too far from here, but something doesn’t seem right. It’s either my informant is not doing his job right or maybe he is trying to play some silly games with me.

    POV: RaphaelIt took a few days for the girls to get back on their feet. Turns out the poison Eloise used on them is a deadly chemical that could turn them invalid for the rest of their lives if not handled properly. If they had stayed there longer for her to administer another dosage, it would have been detrimental to their health. Good thing we got to them on time, good thing we took her out before she could hurt them more than she already has, especially Victoria who is a few weeks pregnant with my child. She had no idea she was pregnant, I had no fucking idea. It was discovered during her body exam at the hospital, and I couldn’t be happier in my life. This changes everything…It doesn’t just validate our relationship; it’s going to keep every other man away from her; it will be the one reason why I will fight everyone, including my grandfather, just to keep her. I couldn’t take my eyes away from her, even when she fell asleep on the hospital bed. It’s amazing to know that a lit

    POV: VictoriaSo it turns out that Eloise Kendall was still lying and playing games with us down to the last minute. After the building exploded, Raphael got up as fast as he could and ran up to me, making sure I was okay. Miguel was here the next second, and they smothered me with love and care, checking to see if I was not hurt. “Claire…My sister…Where is my sister, where is Claire?” I managed to ask in my confused state, turning around to find her. They heard me asking for her, and they turned around with me, searching for her. We spotted her in Dominic’s arms as he struggled to get her to wake up.“No! No! No! No!Claire!Wake up!Claire!” I called out to her, struggling to get up but failing miserably as usual. Raphael took one look at me, and he turned in my direction, and he knew I needed my sister. “Stay with her; keep her safe!” he told Miguel as he left my side and ran to Claire’s side, administering mouth-to-mouth while Dominic called out to her, yelling at the top of h

    POV: Victoria“Move away from here; she has a bomb; she is going to kill us all!” I yelled in Carl’s direction as I saw him approaching us slowly, thinking that my Mom was not seeing him. Of course, she is seeing him through the device in her hand; she knew the moment they took off the power grid that they were here. She came up to us and smiled excitedly, clapping her hands as if it were the happiest day of her life.“The guys are here to save you. Your Prince Charming has arrived, and they came prepared to save you. Are you not excited?” She asked us, smiling so happily. I turned to Claire in fear, and she had the same look of fear on her face, too. “Let them go, Mom; they don’t have to die because of us,” I begged her.“Of course, they do. Why the hell would you ever think that they deserve to live, why would you think that?” she asked me angrily.“I have been waiting for them for so long, they are the reason why we are still here. Of course, they would get what they deserve; the

    POV: Raphael“How is he?” I asked Miguel a few minutes later after he spoke to the guys he put in charge of his parents. We have been waiting for their report and for a minute there we thought that something bad has happened, we thought they were under another attack from Eloise. We were contemplating whether or not to cancel the mission tomorrow and go back to Havana to save the Myers and get them out of town before coming back to face Eloise. But the call came in just a few minutes before we made the decision to cancel the mission. Turns out that the guys are even more efficient than we thought. Immediately after Shaun came out from surgery, they moved him and the Myers out of the hospital and took them to a safe house outside the city. “You did good, guys; I’m proud of you. Where are they now? Where did you take them?” he asked the boys after confirming that they were safe. “I’m sorry boss, but we can’t disclose our location to anyone yet, not even you, Mr Myers.” They told him

    POV: RaphaelWe were all awake all night, going over the plans over and over again, looking for any flaws. Dominic and I did not have any misunderstanding as we worked together, in fact, you will never know that we even had a fight before we started. Saving the girls is more important to us and that’s what we focused on.We could not walk up to the front gate together because that was where she was expecting us to follow. We flew a drone over the property, and we saw that half of her security guards were stationed at the entrance, waiting patiently for us. I’m sure that she must be expecting us to show up at her gate any moment from now. I mean, she wasn’t expecting us to back down, was she?“Get the helo ready, we leave two hours after the ground team,” I instructed Carl. We decided to split the teams into two so one team could create a diversion while the second team sneaks into the house and saves the girls. We agreed to use a helicopter to drop a few guys on the building while th

I’m too busy to deal with your attitude, Raphael, I mean it!” He told me furiously, glaring daggers at me. It’s obvious to everyone looking that this guy is angry with me for a completely different reason. I mean, he cannot be this furious because I said I wasn’t helping, right?“I’ll do anything to save Victoria, even if it means putting up with your bullshit!” I told him, repeating my earlier response and ignoring his earlier comments about my attitude.“Are you testing my patience? Are you trying to piss me off?” he yelled at me, letting the others turn to us curiously as they wondered what was going on between us. I turned to face him and he came to stand in front of me, glaring at me as if he wanted to punch me.“If you have something to say, why don’t you say it to my fucking face, Dominic. You keep saying you have moved past my betrayal, but

    POV: Raphael“Shaun, what is going on over there, Are you hurt?” Miguel asked him in a panicked tone as he got up immediately and viewed his body to see where he was shot. I’d already seen it when the nurse took his phone but I didn’t say anything because I don’t want to get him more worried and upset than he is presently. He was shot in the chest and stomach, and I could tell that he is in pain, but he is just faking it to put Miguel’s mind at ease. It would break Everyone if something bad happens to him. I know I only just met the guy today, but trust me, I would feel it too because he is such a great guy and he doesn’t deserve to die. I see him like Carl, he is loyal to a fault, just like Carl. I could see it in his eyes that he would do anything to protect the Myer’s, even putting his life at risk for them. He is still bleeding from the gunshots, the bullet has not been taken out and the bleeding has not stopped. He must have lost a lot of blood while waiting for Juliette Mye

I wanted to refute his decision one more time, but he stopped me with a wave of his hand, dismissing what I had to say as if it didn’t matter. “Save it, Ralph, I don’t want to hear it!” He told me angrily, glaring at me. “Tomorrow, I’m saving the girls and bringing them home to their family and loved ones. You can keep planning and stalling for as long as you want, I don’t care. But I’ll advise you to stay the fuck out of my way before you get hurt!” he warned me, walking past me and heading back outside. He turned around when he got to the door and he turned to Miguel and said,“I'm going out there to make plans on how to save your sister and my woman. You can

    POV: RaphaelI didn’t want to deal with Dominic now because I knew that he must be so furious with me for keeping him in the dark all this while. I have not been sending updates to him as he instructed. I’ve been too busy to even think about him. As expected, he was angry with me, and his tone was so rude when I called to inform him that Miguel and I were crashing at his house tonight. I thought he was just being unnecessarily angry. I mean, I know I didn’t call him to give him updates, but he should have called me to, right?When he didn’t hear from either me, Carl, or even Miguel, he should have known that something was wrong, and he should have called to find out what was happening. He knows the enemy we are facing is so cunning and evil. He should have called us to check up on us and see if we were okay. But he didn’t call either, and now he is pissed at me for nothing.I was getting ready to give him a piece of my mind, but when I set my eyes on him, I immediately felt guilt
