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: Victoria “I’m hot…I’m burning hot…What is happening to me, why do I feel this way?” I asked myself as I felt a hand on my body, caressing me. I have no idea how I got to this room, I’m drunk, so fucking drunk. As if that is not enough, I’m also horny, I can feel my pussy burning so hot. It feels like I would slump and die if I don’t get fucked this minute. That is weird…I’m a virgin, I should not be longing for sex this way, should I?I’m breathing hard, trying hard to remember how I go to this room and why am I feeling this way. Could it be the drinks I took at the party, was I drugged or is it just my hormones that is playing this mean joke on me?I kept thinking hard, going over different scenarios in my head. What if I was drugged and kidnapped, what is going to happen to my mom and my sister, how will they survive without me?God, I couldn’t even think straight because all my sane thoughts were going in one direction, sex. How did I get to this place, why did I come he
POV: Victoria “This money should be enough for your precious virginity. Take it and get out of my office, I don’t ever want to set my eyes on you again. Stay away from me and keep that unfortunate incident between us. You can never mention what happened that night to anyone no soul must hear about it, else you’ll face my wrath!” he yelled and threatened furiously, throwing some bundles of cash at my face.“You don’t have to be so mean about it, Raphael!You can hate me if you want to, but I won’t let you treat me like trash. I would never have come to you if it wasn’t for my moms illness. I can’t stand the sight of your arrogance, I can’t stand you!” I told him angrily, glaring daggers at him. He stole my virginity and calls it an unfortunate incident. Can you believe that?“You fucking gold digger!I know your type. You pretend to be calm and modest, but you are nothing but a trick star, a fucking whore!If you think you can waltz in here and demand money from me anytime you want, t
POV: Raphael I must confess, I was so pissed when she came into my office and demanded money from me like a whore. I thought she was different from all the other girls that won’t stop throwing themselves at me. When she turned down my check, I thought she was different from all the gold diggers around me. But if she is here for my money too, then she is no different from the others, she’s a gold digger like the rest of them.I don’t understand how she was able to fool me into thinking that she is a good girl. I guess it’s because I stole her innocence and she didn’t take a dime for compensation. Who would have thought that she would come back to get the money. The truth is that she is not just one of a kind, she’s exceptional. I’ve been with many girls, but none like her. Sex with her was so amazing, she just succeeded in setting a standard that no girl can beat. I can’t believe I’d dreamed about her several times after that night, no girl has ever made me feel this way, not even clo
POV: Victoria It’s just one week after moms surgery, I was taking care of her while Claire gets the house ready for her return. She will be discharged today and I want everything in order before she gets home. She’s been acting strange since her surgery, I guess she is tired of this hospital environment. We need to take her back home and take proper care of her.She was lying peacefully on the bed, taking a nap while I put her things together. Then suddenly, the door to her hospital room pushed open, and I turned to Carl standing by the door, glaring at me.“My boss wants to see you in his office!” he stated brusquely.“Right Now!” he added in a fierce tone, giving me no chance to argue or refuse his request. I had no choice, he looked as if he was ready to drag me out if I dare to defy him. So I had to leave mom all alone in the hospital and follow him out. I had no idea what was going on, I’ve been to busy to play with my phone and surf the Internet. I don’t leave mom’s bedside unl
POV: Victoria“I’m not a beggar aunt Vera, I’m just here to speak with my father.” I responded calmly trying to ignore her hurtful words. “Stop calling him your father, he is n…” “Enough, Cindy!Let me handle this myself!” Dad stopped her before she could abuse me verbally like she always does.“Fix this, and send her out of my house!” My step mom told my dad, her face contorted in anger. He looked up at me, a deep frown plastered on his face.“Why are you here, Victoria, did she send you, or is she finally dead?!” He asked me firmly. “Of course not, dad!Why would you even say that, are you wishing mom dead?” I asked him angrily. I’m trying so hard to stay strong, but his words brought tears in my eyes. It’s so sad to see the hatred in his eyes, who would believe that we were once a happy family?“State your business and get the hell out of here. I warned you all never to show your face in this house, didn’t I?” he kept on yelling at me angrily. “I didn’t mean to interrupt your h
POV: Raphael “Follow her and report back to me.” I instructed Carl when she left my office to go look for my money.“Boss, she visited her father to ask him for money for her mother's treatment. Her father is the CEO of K Global Group, they just won a contract from you last week. He was mean to her just now. You won’t believe what just happened to her in her father's house, Ralph. She was humiliated and kicked out by her father and stepmother. Even her stepmother mocked and abused her. What should I do about it?” He asked me, sounding pissed. Since I told him about my plans, he is already being overprotective of her.“Cancel the contract awarded to him, and find out what is going on in his family before we seal the deal. I don’t want to get into another family feud, I’ve got enough on my plate with my uncles and cousins.” I ordered him. I was going to let her go if his reports about her family came out badly. But when she came back to me and asked for more money, I knew she needed me
POV: Raphael “What?Did you just say she is your girl?” Charlotte exclaimed angrily, her eyes blazing in anger.“Yes, Charlotte. She is my girl, my fiancee. Do you have a problem with that?” I asked her, my eyebrows corked in question.“Mom!What is he saying to me!How can he dump me for that tramp, mom? Do something, stop him, stop him now!” She cried out like a spoilt little brat, holding moms hand. You know, things would have been different between us if she did not cheat on me with Ethan my second cousin. I’d walked in on them lying naked in bed. When I confronted her, she claimed it was a mistake.Can you believe that?“Stop whining and get out of my house. Or better still, you can stop by Ethan’s room for a quickie.” I scoffed at her. I pushed her aside and headed upstairs, but I was stopped by mom’s angry voice.“No.I will not accept her, you cannot be with her, Raphael. You must put an end to that relationship at once. I don’t want to see you with that girl from the trench

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
POV: Raphael“If you are here to give me attitude and make my job more difficult for me, I suggest you get the fuck out of here right now. 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
POV: Raphael“If you had a way of getting them back all this while, why haven’t you done so yet, why are they still being held hostage, Mr perfect plans?” Dominic retorted angrily.“ It’s your perfect plans that got me into trouble with Carlos Gonzalez in the first place, remember?” He asked again, scoffing at my words. 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
