Blakely’s POV
I kept on pacing back and forth. I could not calm down. It’s been twenty-four hours since Blair disappeared. The authorities are doing their job to find her while I’m waiting for Lucas to wake up. He’s the only one who saw the culprit’s face, although I already have a hunch about who took my daughter. My friends are here with me. Alicia was trying her best contacting her colleagues, and all. While Nik was also doing everything he could to find Blair.
Blair is Nik’s child. I still couldn’t believe that I could regain my memories right after I saw Nik’s face and after hearing his voice. Until now, I’m still not over it. We haven’t talk because of Blair’s disappearance, and I couldn’t even bring myself to calm down.
“He will contact you,” Grace suddenly blurted out, breaking the deafening silence. We’re in the hospital room where Lucas was admitted. We’re w
Blakely’s POV“Blakely!” I was horrified when Stan entered the hospital room. I got discharged today, and I didn’t expect him to pay a visit this early. He’s still fearless. He doesn’t care if people recognizes him. Fearless and careless.“What are you doing here, Stan?” It was Hershey. She helped with my discharge papers, and she also looked horrified while looking at Stan.“Shut up, woman! I’m not here for you.”“Stan, I have no time for you. My daughter is missing—”“I’ll help you find her,” he said, cutting me off. He held my hand, and smiled at me. “She’s our daughter, love. She’s mine.”My forehead creased. My insides were twitching, and all I want to do now is kill him. But no. I won’t be able to find Blair if I do that.“Cut the crap, Stan! I know for sure that you are not Blair’s father—”“SHUT THE FCK UP, I SAID!” Stan shouted at Hershey, who paled. “You’re one of those people who are against my relationship with Blakely. Shut up, or I’ll make you shut your mouth forever.”“
Blakely’s POVHis face is getting closer, and I’m also close to pushing him away and revealing that I remember everything now. That I remember who’s the evil one here. That I remember that the story he told me wasn’t a tragic fairytale, but a terrible lie created by a mischievous liar. I could easily push him away and burst his bubbles. I could easily ruin his plans and make him pay for all he did, but I couldn’t. I couldn’t push him away as he moves his face closer to kiss me. I couldn’t ruin all his plans because I haven’t seen my baby. I need to see Blair. I need to make sure that she’s safe.“Mommy!” That made me push Stan away. I immediately pulled myself up, and looked at the little girl standing by the open door. She was looking at me with eyes twinkling in excitement.“Blair!” I immediately ran to hug, and hugged her so tight. I felt tears rolling down my cheeks as I embraced her, caging her in my arms, protecting her from any harm.“I’m sorry…” I whispered as tears continued
Blakely’s POVEverything happened so fast. Stan’s plan was executed swiftly, and we were able to trap lure and trap him easily. I couldn’t believe it could end like that. It was so fast. It was dangerous and scary, but we caught him so easily. My mind has been dwelling on it for the past hours until now.“Aren’t you tired? You should rest.”I looked at Alicia with doubts. “Is it really over, Alicia? I don’t know, but…it’s so fast. I couldn’t…get over it.”She sat on the couch and caressed my arm. “Nik has been planning to put Stan back in prison, and it’s because of his determination that the plan was executed smoothly. Also…because you’re brave enough to take the risk to find Blair.”I looked at my wounded hand. The knife cut Stan left in my palm stings, and I could still feel it throbbing because the cut is kinda deep. I got this wound from protecting myself and my daughter. I still couldn’t believe how my memories rushed back to me, as if my subconscious predicted what would happen
Blakely’s POVI was standing in front of Nik, and he was just silently looking at me. His eyes were glued on mine. He was almost not blinking, as if I’d disappear if he did. The tension in my heart was becoming strong as I felt the strong presence of the man I loved the most in this lifetime. I don’t think I’d ever love someone else in this lifetime.“Your hand?” His eyes remained on mine, in spite his curiosity about my wound.Slowly, I lifted my hand, showing my palm covered with bandage. “Still in pain.”“Your head?”I took a deep sigh. “I remember everything, Nik…”His eyes flickered with pain. “That’s all that matters to me.”I smiled bitterly. “Your father died.”“It’s not your fault.” He shook his head while staring deeply into my eyes. “I don’t know how I would convince you, but it’s not your fault, Blakely. No one wanted it to happen.”I looked down, tears rolled down my cheeks, but I immediately wiped them. “I feel guilty.”“I am too,” he whispered, just enough for me to hea
Blakely’s POVRaise to be a perfect daughter—like a robot. Taught to be prim and proper—like a royal. Grew up being so obedient—like a puppy. The day I entered the house of the Velasquez’s, my fate was settled down. I had to follow every way my foster parents ordered as I wouldn't be alive today without them. I owe them everything.My name is Blakely. I am an orphan. My parents died from a cruel storm when I was 12 years old. And I was almost lifeless when Mr. Velasquez found me. He gave me a second life, a second home, and I swore I'd do everything I could to repay him. But I never expected I would walk into such a dilemma.I had committed an unforgivable sin. I was secretly in love with my foster brother. Nikandreo Velasquez. No one had spotted it. Because Nik and I were never close. Or more accurately, he hatedme.Five years ago, I got drunk on the night of my 18th and somehow sneaked into his room, undressed, and slipped into his sheet. Alcohol took complete control of my brain t
Blakely's POV“I always remind you of how to be a good wife, Blakely, and I am very disappointed that for the first time, you came in late.”I looked down. Mama was combing my long hair that reached my waist. Its length always pleases her and her favorite thing to do was to comb it. However, I know she's not enjoying combing my hair right now because she's right, I came late.Today is the schedule of my engagement party with Stan and the memories I had with Nik last night still haunted my mind.Meeting him again like this wasn't what I expected. For the past years, I’ve been dreaming of seeing him again, but now that he's back, I felt scared. The incident last night was as vivid as the memories of what happened five years ago. It's as if impossible to forget and I have no choice but to live with it forever.I couldn't forget the kiss. The dream of tasting his lips and memorizing the taste of it turned into reality and it was vividly etched into my mind, corrupting my sensibility.Once
Blakely’s POVI know I’m trapped and there's no way to escape the hell where Nik trapped me. He's the king of this hell and I'm scared I’d lose myself as he played with my heart and soul like a devil, enjoying my misery and suffering. I don’t know what he’s planning, but I can feel that it’s not good. It’s as if he only came back to torment me and because I did stupid things twice, I have no choice but to obey him.Nik slowly stepped backward as he eyed me like a predator, enjoying his trembling prey and a playful smile curved on his lips. His smile was deceiving and only I could feel its mischief. I remained watching him until he disappeared from my sight and that's only when I released the breath I was holding in.He’s gone. He’s gone so fast that it felt like an illusion but the beat of my heart proves that it’s not.“Blakely!” Stan held my hand and caressed my back. “Are you okay, love?”I forced a smile and nodded at him. “Y-Yeah… I’m just…kinda tired.”“Auntie–Mama, I’d like to
Blakely’s POVI was standing frozen in front of him after I opened the door. He roamed his eyes around as if looking for something and then satisfaction suddenly filled his eyes before he turned to me and smirked. The curve of his lips was very different from earlier. There was no filter anymore and he’s completely showing the evilness in his eyes unlike earlier that he’s trying to conceal them.I was taken aback and forced to step back with the fear of having his body touch mine when he suddenly invited himself in and walked around as if he owns the apartment.The breath I was trying so hard to hold in exploded as my eyes followed his movement.“As expected, no one sees the diamond in you except for my parents,” he said and slowly faced. His smile was savage and I felt so small because of how he stared at me. “Your fiance left you alone here after the engagement party, huh? Such a pity.”I gritted my teeth. He’s rude but my stubborn heart is refusing to hate him.“What are you doing

Blakely’s POVTears rolled down my cheeks like a flowing river. I could’n’t stop it, and I saw how my tears made everyone panicked. My friends are asking me questions, trying to find out what’s wrong, while I cried my heart out while looking at Nik. I couldn’t take my eyes off of him. He was also looking at me with worry in his eyes. He immediately crossed the distance between us, and cupped my cheeks, his thumb was gently wiping my tears away.“Hey… I’m sorry. Does your head hurt? I’m sorry, I’ll leave now…”I grabbed his shirt. “D-Don’t…” I was crying desperately and helplessly, holding on to his shirt as if my life depends on it. “Don’t leave m-me… Don’t leave me, please. I-I’m sorry for forgetting you. I’m sorry, N-Nik…”I threw myself in his arms as I felt him freeze. I could feel and hear the fast and l
Blakely’s POVMy heart keeps on racing inside my chest as if I was being chased by something, not scary, but something indescribable. His eyes were still on mine, and I couldn’t seem to blink. His lips were still parted, and I could see different expressions on his face. He looked shocked, guilty, happy, sad… I don’t know, but I want him to stare at me like that forever. I feel like it would feel so good if he stares at me like that every day.Unconsciously, my right hand reached for hiss face. My palm caressed his cheek so gently, and the moment our skin contact, his eyes squeezed closed. He just stood in front of me with eyes close, as if my touch made him dream about something beautiful. As if my touch could calm him. And it felt so good.“I miss you…” His voice was so gentle, full of love and longing.I flinched when I suddenly heard something deafening. It’s as if there’s a sudden loud and painful ringing in my ear, and it’s hurting my head.“Ow!” I sucked my breath as I cupped m
Nik’s POV“I can’t stay here, Nik. I’ll lose my mind.”I gritted my teeth as I stared at my mother. “This is our house, mother. Not some detention. I just need you to stay here, and focus on your therapies.”I was called here by the maid because my mother is being stubborn again. The maid caught her throwing her medicines, and she’s not taking enough rest. I don’t wanna lose another parent. I can’t lose her, either. We’re not in good terms, but I love my mother. Even if she’s controlling, and a very strict mother, I love her. She brought me into this world and raised me. I owe her everything I am and I have now.She shook her head, her eyes welling with tears. “Nik, I’m okay. I’m not depressed—”“Not yet,” I cut her off as I stared at her blankly. “You are stressed out. And I can’t let this go on. I already lost a father. Please…”She sobbed. Tears completely streamed down her face. “I-I wanna talk to Blakely. I want to apologize.”“I can’t even get near her, mother. Grace said she wo
Blakely’s POVI tied my hair after throwing the garbage in the garbage chute. I turned to go back to the unit when I almost bumped into someone. I apologized, but immediately step back after sensing danger when I saw his face. I already have a hint of him being a part of my past because of my dream, but I don’t think he belongs to the list of the good people in my past. Base on the fear I felt when I saw him, I know I should avoid him.To my horror, he smiled. “Blakely…”“W-What are you doing here?”He sighed as his eyes remained on me. “Are you afraid of me?”I gritted my teeth. “I’m not, but I can’t remember you being part of my past.” I lied. The only way to make him believe that he could lure me. I need to know his intention. I need to know why he approached my daughter at the amusement park.“You must’ve been brainwashed by your foster mother.”“F-Foster mother?” I asked, confused. So that woman isn’t my biological mother? I actually want to ask Alicia and others about that, but
