"Danielle," a familiar gentle voice called her name. "Wake up."

Danie slowly opened her eyes and was met by very beautiful scenery. It seemed like she was lying in the middle of a field of wildflowers.

She got up and wondered who was calling her a while ago. No one was there. She was alone. And as she looked, it was just an endless field around her.

Where was she?

"Hello?" her voice echoed. "Where am I?"

Aside from her voice, she could not hear anything else.

"Danielle," called the familiar voice again.

This time, she saw a beautiful woman appeared in front of her. She was wearing a long white dress.

"Who are you? Why do you know me?" she asked while eagerly trying to remember the familiar woman.

"Don't you remember me, Danielle Williams?" the woman smiled. "I understand, we only met once," she approached her. "When you wak

    Someone entered the unit, cut off the rubber tubing that connects the tank to the stove, and left the regulator open. Because the cylinder was fairly new, the amount of leakage was enough to blow up the place at the littlest bit of spark.It was fortunate that her exposure to the harmful gas was short and she hadn't fully entered the unit when the explosion happened. And it was all thanks to Lucas who didn't think twice to pull her out even risking his own life.Meanwhile, James Leith called her when he learned of the incident."I was worried when I heard about what happened to the CEO. I immediately thought that it's got something to do with you. I'm glad that you're okay," James said."Lucas saved me," she answered. Her heart was st

    Danie's heart skipped a beat when finally, Lucas arrived. He didn't seem to have gone to his office. He was simply wearing jeans and a jacket over a white t-shirt with his hair all disheveled. He looked irritated and furious like something did not go according to his wishes.But what caught Dana's attention was the bandage around his right palm. Did he get the injury when he saved her?Daniel felt awful for causing him to get hurt."Is everything okay, Levi?" Lucas asked his brother while taking off his jacket. He didn't even throw Danie a glance as if she wasn't there."Uh-huh. Nothing to worry about," Levi answered. "How did it go?""He didn't want to speak," Lucas was frustrated. "But I'll make sure he would not see the light of day again," then his gaze darted in her direction. And she could swear, she saw how those angry eyes softened when he looked at her. "How are you feeling, Dana?"Lucas approached her and put his left hand against

    "Where are we going?" Danielle asked Lucas who was busy instructing his security team about what to do."We need to leave this place as soon as possible," it was Levi who answered her."But why?""Because according to the security, they've spotted some armed men around the vicinity. They knew that you're here, Dana," Levi explained but he was just relaxed like he was not talking about armed people."Are you guys ready?" Lucas asked. "We need to leave Dana. I cannot risk the safety of the residents in case they got caught in a crossfire.""What do you mean? Is the situation that bad?" she was nervous all of a sudden.It's happening again. Her nightmare is happening again!"Not so. But we have to make sure. Don't worry, the police in civilian cars will escort us. We will leave as subtle as possible.""But where are we going?" do they have another place to run to?"Do you trust me, Dana?" Lucas asked seriously. "I promised

    "We will stay here for the meantime. I hope it's okay with you," Lucas said as soon as they entered his huge house.It was absolutely a gorgeous place. But it still could not be compared to where Princess Danielle Williams once lived.However, if only it were possible, she would not want to go back anymore. But it seems like no matter what running and hiding she would do, her past would still come like a ghost to haunt her and force her to go back."Why would it be not okay with me, Lucas?" she smiled at him. "But perhaps, you can let the Doctor go. I am well and maybe his patients are waiting for him.""Are you trying to shoo me away, lady?" Levi butted in."Come on, Dr. Levi," she rolled her eyes at him. "You would be more useful in the hospital. Just go and save lives, you know.""That hurts. And here I thought you're happy that I'm here," Levi pretended to be offended. "Did you hear that, Lucas? As much as I wanted to help you, this lady

    To say that Danielle was feeling guilty was an understatement.Just now, Lucas said that he'd be temporarily working from home. He delegated every important matter to Ace and Drew to act on his behalf while he cannot go physically to the office.And yet, he did not have to do that. Danielle caused Lucas' life to take this change.But what was moving Danie was the fact that Lucas was not blaming her. It was as if it was natural for him to protect her."Dr. Levi, do you have to stay here with us?" of course, Danie was not doing anything so she went to bug the Doctor who was playing on his phone."Didn't you hear what Lucas said? He needs me here. So back off, lady," Levi did not spare her a glance.She pouted and sat beside him while peeping at his game. "What are you playing? Teach me, would you?""It's for boys," Levi answered, moving away from her."Please?" she followed."Hey," Levi stopped playing and face

    "What?" Danielle felt like she received another blow to her gut when she heard what Mrs. Leith said. "Uncle is in the hospital?" she repeated.She called James to tell him what happened and to plead that he take her already. But instead, she was met by bad news on his end."I'm sorry, Danielle. But don't worry. This has been happening a lot and he always comes out alright," Mrs. Leith encouraged her. "I just hope that this would be the last time. I am hopeful about his condition. I feel like he's near to recovery.""Can't I talk to him now?" Danielle really wanted to hear her Uncle's voice."You can talk to me instead," the older woman replied."I need to leave the Del Fierros, Mrs. Leith," her voice turned into soft sobs. "As soon as possible.""Did anything go wrong, Danielle?""Lucas already got hurt. He was shot, I don't know how he was doing right now," she cried. "I'm scared, I don't know what to do. I-""He got shot? How

    Danielle was not able to get a full night's sleep. She could hardly get Lucas out of her thoughts. It was like she could not stop worrying unless she sees that he was okay with her own eyes."Good morning, Dana," Miriam went to her room to wake her up."Good morning, Auntie," she greeted back while yawning."Tabitha and Jio are coming over today," she said while pulling the curtains to let sunlight in. "I know you'd want to see them.""Really?" she asked excitedly. She was busy worrying about Lucas, she forgot about visiting Tabitha.It must be a good thing to see them today. After all, she was not sure if she could stay there longer."Yes, so get up and take a bath. Breakfast will be ready in a few minutes," Miriam helped her got up from bed.She gave her a pair of new crutches as well."Thank you, Auntie," though she wished that she wasn't going to need it sooner.If only her legs were fine, then Lucas did not have to

    "Auntie, I'm fine. Why are you crying?" Danielle could not help but be emotional when Tabitha kept sobbing while hugging her.Esther and Jio were still bickering when they left her alone with Tabitha."Dana, since I lost my daughter, it's you who made me whole again. I can't take it if I will also lose you. I wanted to blame Lucas, but the poor boy risked his life to protect you. How could I scold him?" Tabitha laughed a little while pulling away from the hug."You're right, Auntie, Lucas saved me. So don't be mad at him, hmn?""He ought to. He brought you to the city even when this old woman begged him to forget about taking revenge on you.""You did that?" she was surprised."When you last went home, I talked to him because I was so worried about you."The last time? She remembered now, maybe that was why Lucas was so mad at her when they were going back to the city. He even accused her of pulling a drama. That mor

"Do you ever plan to be in a relationship with Lucas?"It had been a year and everyone's waiting impatiently for Danie to bring her status with Lucas to the next level. Especially Myrtle, who claimed her nine year relationship with Dr. Levi was going nowhere until Lucas got married first."Come on, you and Levi can always go ahead first," she rolled her eyes.Truth was, she was taking her sweet time with the courtship stage. Lucas was the best suitor ever. Not that she had past experience to compare to, but Lucas was simply incomparable.He was

She could feel the pain as if her heart was being torn literally and her blood was gushing out like a fountain.Why? Why did everything have to end that way?Was she a bad person? Why was it so hard for God to give her just this simple happiness she found in Lucas?"Lucas!" She cried.

    LXIVShe didn't mean to fall asleep. But when Danielle opened her eyes again, it was already the next day.She was still at the Del Fierros. She used the same room as the one she used three years ago. Maybe she felt so at home or maybe it was the fact that she traveled hours to get there again or it could also be because she had been restless the last few days that she easily drifted off to sleep.When Danielle got up from her bed, she saw her bag carefully placed inside the room. She didn't remember bringing it when she and Tabitha went there hastily yesterday. Perhaps Tabitha brought it last night.She stood up and found something to wear before heading to the shower. While taking a bath, she couldn't help but be nervous.Was Lucas back home?He should be.Although nervous, she was also excited to see him. She prayed to God that everything's going to be fine when they face each other again.

    "D-Dana?" Jio couldn't believe his eyes when he saw who their visitor was. For half a minute, he was just staring at Danie with wide eyes."May I come in, Jio?" She asked, smiling at the boy who visibly grew several inches taller since the last time she saw him."Dana, are you really here?""Who's that, Jio?" Tabitha's voice echoed from the kitchen."Mom!" Jio called. "It's Dana!" He excitedly ran to his mother and forgot to let Danie in who just helped herself in.For one whole year in the past, she lived in that house."What?" She heard Tabitha asked Jio."Yes! Mom, Dana is here. Come and see, quick!""Auntie," Danielle called Tabitha who seemed to not believe Jio so she was not coming out to see her.In less than two seconds, Tabitha came out from the kitchen. She held her hands over her mouth as tears began falling from her eyes."It's really you, Dana!""I'm sorry to visit only

    It had been a week.Danielle hadn't returned to her usual self since coming back from the island. Even if she would deliberately busy herself with loads of work, her mind would drift back to the short-lived happiness she had with Lucas.Why was life so unfair? Just when she thought she would finally get a taste of true happiness, reality would come slapping her in the face.Did Lucas really love her? Why didn't he come to explain to her?'You left, Danielle,' her mind reminded her.Hadn't she left, would Lucas come to her that time to tell her it was her he chooses?But no matter what, the truth didn't change. He didn't try to explain because he chose Olivia.When James learned what happened, her Uncle couldn't help but roll his eyes at her."I already asked Lucas about that woman. He made it clear to me that they were not in a relationship. Oh please, Danielle, why did you leave him again

    TMS LXI"What is the meaning of this, Lucas?" Hurt and devastation flashed in Olivia's eyes."Olivia?" Lucas looked confused. And Danielle interpreted that in a negative way.He looked like a boyfriend who was caught cheating with another girl.She felt like the happiness she was feeling just a few minutes ago was replaced by pain. So Lucas and Olivia were together? Her reaction made sense, right? Besides, why would Olivia be there if Lucas didn't bring her with him?"How could you do this to me?" Olivia continued. Tears were streaming down her lovely face. "Did you bring me here for this? What did I ever do to you to deserve this?"

    The next thing Danielle knew, it was just her and Lucas standing by the seashore. She found herself staring at her feet which she had already freed from her shoes, enjoying the stroke of shallow waves. “So, this is the kind of life that you grew up with,” Lucas said after a short while of silence. His both hands were inside his pant’s pocket and his gaze was to the vast ocean before them. “If you meant luxury, then, yes. I was born with a golden spoon. Really, I’ve always gotten every material thing I wanted,” she answered, casting him a glance. Before they parted three years ago, they started having calm conversations like this. The most beautiful part was when Lucas said that he already forgave her. She could still remember how they sealed their friendship by shaking their left hands instead of their right hands that were both injured. She remembered the times when she badly wanted to stay with him but had no choice but to leave.

    The following day, Danielle got busy sending off the VIPs. She hadn't seen Lucas yet and she wondered in her heart if he forgot that he promised to see her again. Although, she was also somehow thankful for the delay in confrontation."Are you leaving as well?" Danielle frowned at James and Myrna who looked like they're included in the first batch of guests to leave the island."I left loads of work in the office. It's probably piling up now," James answered."Aunt Myrna, why is Uncle so workaholic? And he won't even allow you to stay and relax here for a few days," she complained, hoping Myrna would back her up and then James would decide to stay."You know your Uncle. Work is his life. Let him be. Besides, I

    The first time Lucas saw Dana, she was lying helplessly on a hospital bed. Tubes were connected to her body and her lower extremities were wrapped heavily in gauze. But he didn't feel an ounce of pity for her. All he wanted to do that time was to kill her with his bare hands.He hated her so much. He saw her as a curse. Yet because of his family, he still helped to keep her secret safe despite her unwillingness to tell him the truth about the accident.Lucas thought that he would never forgive her. But when he spent time with her, his heart opened up for forgiveness. And not only that, he feared losing Dana. That when her past caught up with her because of his wrong decision to bring her to the city, he willingly laid everything he had got just to keep her safe.In the end, his efforts were in vain as Dana decided to protect him instead. As a man who failed, it was a blow to his ego that in reality, what he had was not enough to make Dana trust him and sta
