Daniel's p.o.v

My guilty conscience was mocking me for leaving Linda alone. The way her eyes were looking at me melted my heart. The way her chest was rising and falling while she was sleeping in the car was a huge distraction for me. Her pink lips were as if inviting me to chew it. She looked fully like a sleeping beauty.

Everytime she was around, I felt the clock stop ticking. I had forgotten almost everything for a while when I held her waist and took pictures with her. We were just a real couple. There was no denying that she was looking stunning. She looked so happy then. I should not have left her there alone. It was her first time here and I didn't even know where she was. What was she doing?

'But then, why should I care?'

Besides, it was her who wanted to come to the party so she can take her own responsibility and handle herself. But again, she was my wife. She did not seem like someone who would attend parties. She was supposed to be with me right now and yet I was here sitting with Rose.

"Baby so what do you think?" Rose said, breaking my chain of thoughts about Linda. Fuck, I was not listening to her all this time.

'What should I say?'

She could skin me alive if she came to know I was not paying attention to her since the beginning.

"Um yes." I replied apprehensively and hesitantly looked at her. For what did I agree? I did not even know myself.

If looks could kill then I would have been dead by now.

"Daniel, were you even paying attention to me?" She asked furrowing her eyebrows.

'No.'

"Yeah baby." I scratched my neck. Thankfully, I was still sitting there alive.

"So you actually gave me the permission to cut my hair?"

she was amused and I was bemused.

'Did I?'

I loved her hair and I just agreed to let her cut it.

But her hair could not be compared to Linda's hair. Rose's hair was long but not silk, smooth and shiny like it was for Linda. My eyes roamed the place in search of her once more. Basically, my body was with Rose but my mind elsewhere.

'What the hell?'

I was thinking about her once again. I should be happy I was with Rose. I had gotten the chance to spend my night with her. Then why the fuck was I pondering about Linda?

"Daniel, where are you lost?" She pouted.

"Yeah. Yes I think you should shorten it. I mean you should try some new styles. You are a model. Do whatever you want. I will love you in every look." I kissed her forehead. I had no other options than to say yes. If she came to know I was not paying her attention, she could cause chaos. I was not bad mouthing her. Everyone has a darker side and she had hers as well. Yet, I still found her to my liking.

She then hugged me and placed her head on my chest. I embraced her back. After such a long time we were in the arms of each other . I breathed a sigh of relief and closed my eyes.

"Was it necessary to bring her here tonight, Daniel?" She questioned and I opened my eyes instantly. I knew who she was talking about.

"Rose, I'm here with you and no one is disturbing us, that's the most important thing right now. Let us forget about her."

She must be feeling insecure.

After that, I cracked some jokes to keep Rose's mood on.

Some time later, her phone beeped and she excused herself saying she was going to the bathroom.

Weird!

Meanwhile, my eyes searched for the woman whose thought was still stuck in my mind. Linda! I stood up to go to look for her. I hoped she was still there where she was left.

Just then I saw her dancing with an unknown man.

What the fuck!

His one hand was on her waist and the other was holding her hand firmly. They were too close. She was looking so happy with him. I did not know what that bastard said to her until she started laughing.

'Did she get someone here or did she already have one?'

I told her to find someone and enjoy herself but did not hope for her to actually do it. Proving me wrong has become a trend for her. Or maybe it was me who thought she was different.

My blood was literally boiling. He did not have the right to touch my wife like that. I did not have that authority, but I wanted to smash his face. He was so personable though. I would not mind destroying that good-looking face he was using to flirt with my wife. Just one night and they were clinging to each other to such an extent.

Without any hesitation, I felt myself moving towards them.

"May I cut in!" It was rather an order than a question.

I looked at Linda. Fear! There was fear in her eyes. She was scared of me. For a while, I wanted to wipe that expression and tell her not to fear me but then I realised it was good that she was petrified. She needed to. Totally a devil who wore a mask of an angel.

But right now I needed to get rid of the man that was still holding Linda's hand and waist. She was my possession and I hate sharing what was mine.

The man looked at me perplexed.

'Did he not know Linda was a married woman?' My eyes went directly at Linda's left ring finger. Her wedding band was missing. So, that was what she was. An attention-seeker. I did not know what took me and I lost my rag.

"Don't look at me like that man, I'm asking what's mine, my wife."

    Linda's p.o.v"Don't look at me like that man, I'm asking what's mine, my wife." My eyes widened in horror. Max! Without losing time, I gazed at him. He looked as shocked as me. "Wife?" He cracked up with laughter. "Sorry bro but this girl is mine today. And as far as I know, doesn't a married woman wear a ring to indicate she is already taken?"Realisation hit me when I did not feel a low weight on my finger. My wedding band. I had removed it when I was taking a bath and forgot to put it back. I swallowed hard. This was not going to end well. Max looked at Daniel's hand and continued."Are you cheating on your wife? I can see a ring on yours though." I was standing there nervously like a stupid, playing with my fingers watching my husband and bestfriend arguing. I moved my eyes towards Daniel and what I saw was not something to appreciate. His knuckles turned white and he was giving Max death glare."May I ask who you are to question me?" Daniel was not someone who would back

    Linda's p.o.vMy dream ended abruptly and harshly, as I was brought back to reality by the shafts of the light. My eyes shot open and I blinked through my eyelashes indistinctly. I laid on the couch, debating whether or not I should wake up. My muscles felt weak. I let out an exasperated sigh. 'What time was it?' I wanted to take the alarm in my hand but I could not. My whole body was aching and I could feel it burning yet I was dying with a cold. I tried to move but my head felt heavy. I touched my forehead to see if I had gotten a fever. I remembered that last night after I came to the room, I went to freshen up. After that I cried my eyes out for the last time.I had decided not to cry nor fight for Daniel anymore. I still loved him but I did a lot and I tolerated too much. It was high time to give up and start a new beginning. I took a glance at the bed next to me. It was clean and soft. 'Didn't Daniel come to sleep last night?? Obviously why would he?'I made an effort to sit on

    Linda's p.o.v Three weeks had already passed and I did not see Daniel. The last time I saw him was when I fainted. Yet, he made sure that I was taking my medicines by sending Amanda to keep an eye on me until he was completely convinced that I was fully cured. It was something strange, but I understood that I was a pawn to him, and I needed to stay safe so that I could play the game. I avoided talking to Mary and Brant also. Whenever they come for a visit, I go downstairs to have breakfast after they have already had theirs. My heart hurts. I thought I had found my mother in Mary, but a daughter would never try to hurt her mother.Brant was someone who would never let me miss my father and here I was playing with their feelings. Every time they would call me downstairs I would make an excuse. Brant barely talks to me whereas Mary still thinks that there was something wrong with me.Beep!The sound of my mobile disturbed me. I took it and the call was from an unknown number. "Hell

My soul could have abandoned my body."I'm sorry if I frightened you, I didn't mean to." The sensitive part of me fell in love with his husky voice. I instantly turned around and his handsome face appeared in front of me. 'When did he come back home?' 'Was that why he sent me messages?' Suddenly, I was on the edge of my seat. 'Was he worried about me?' "Is there anything left to talk?" I questioned him, throwing my handbag on the bed. Showing him my vulnerable side would not bring me any advantage. When I saw he seemed to be in a fog, I continued."I mean you never wanted to talk to me before. As far as I remember, you always have a spitfire personality when you are around me." He let out a sigh and ran his hand through his hair."I know but can we talk? I j

    Linda's p.o.v "Urgh." I groaned and used the bed sheet as a shield to hide my face from the sunlight. The sound of the alarm could have caused cancer to my ear. It was annoyingly ringing.Taking my phone, I dismissed it and took a glance at the bed only to find it empty. I sighed. The hide and seek game was not going to end after all.'Get that man out of your head, you dickhead.' Suddenly, a message popped up on my cellphone's screen and I clicked on it. -Good morning, Little.♡ -Max -Knowing that the message was from Max, I smiled ear to ear. -Good morning, Max. :-D -Linda-How is my best friend doing?

Daniel asked Max while grinding his teeth."I can ask you the same question." Max replied to him with the same attitude. They looked like two opponents in a competition. Daniel's gaze shifted from Max to my face. If looks could kill then I would have been dead by now. I gulped in fear and avoided his gaze. He was such an unpredictable man. He left like a raging bull in the morning and was now at my father's entrance. 'What was he trying to do?'"You do not have the right to question me. Move." He told Max in an arrogant and authoritative tone. I caught a glimpse of him and his gaze was still fixed on me. I flinched but my feet were rooted on the spot.Max did not reply instead he let out a small chuckle. He was an imperturbable person but he forgot that he was one everytime Daniel came into his sight."Do y-" "Who is it,

    Linda's p.o.v"Lyndee are you okay?"Dad asked. "Of course dad, why are you asking?"Dad interrogated. I could sense something was wrong. He was someone who easily sensed lies. I was not a good actress but I hoped I acted good enough for him not to catch me. "Are you living well with Daniel? Did I make a mistake by telling you to marry him?" I recoiled when dad questioned me. He definitely guessed it. If I told him then he would blame himself for putting pressure on me. I did not want that. "Lyndee, just tell me seriously if anything or anyone is hurting you. I saw the way Max, Daniel and you were reacting. You are my daughter, I don't want you to suffer. I don't have much time to live but I want the best for my daughter. I don't want to take regret with me when I go." My heart hurt. I was suffering but I could not share my feelings with him the way I used to narrate everything to him. "Tch. Dad, stop talking like that. You are not going anywhere." Tears were threatening to fall

    Linda's p.o.vTwo months had already passed and things had changed a little bit. Daniel's behaviour had positively changed towards me. When he said he wanted us to get along, he meant it. Before going to the office he asked me if I wanted to see my father and dropped me at his place every time I agreed. Not only that but he also played a game of chess with dad before leaving for work. His mood exclusively went off when he saw Max otherwise he would always be in a good mood. Furthermore, every time I would open my eyes in the morning, I would find myself on the bed instead of on the couch. He became a little bit touchy every weekend when his parents would be present. He either held my hand or put it around my waist. He would stay for breakfast and sometimes be at home ⁸for dinner. We would not talk. Just greet each other. My only request to him was that if he could then do not mention Rose. As a wife, nobody would like it. I did not hold any grudge against both of them because it wa

    Linda’s p.o.v ‘Our journey of love was full of ups and downs, it will be in the future as well. No marriage is perfect, but I will nevertheless make an effort to appear flawless in your eyes and you will not walk through it alone. If I make mistakes along the way, please remind me, correct me, and love me till I come to my senses. You are the only one who can guide me home. Today, I am asking you to be my date forever. For I will always choose you.’ The tears that I had been holding while reading the letter were finally out on that part. I did not know when Daniel fell so hard for me that I would actually question my love for him. Did his love beat my love for him? Whatever it was, the feeling of receiving a letter from the groom while waiting to be manifested at the altar was one of the best moments on the wedding day. I finally found my heaven on Earth and I needed nothing else. Our love won. It was bliss. I acquired so much during the few days and he was always there for me.

    Third person’s p.o.v“What have you done, you freak?”She roared with trembling lips and watery eyes. She witnessed a murder and she could lose her mind. “I should have done that earlier. I loved Lilith but she was not living as per my according. I was not hitting her for pleasure, I was just giving her a correction and how I would sleep with her if she was going to be a mother. I did that because I cared for her. You remember the lake view, it was her favourite place.”“Watching you there made my heart rest. It feels like I was watching her. I even got rid of that girl Serena for you. She tried to harm you.”Linda gasped in horror. He killed Serena. He was a total psychopath and she wanted to vomit. On top of that, he had the audacity to say that he loved Lilith with that filthy mouth of his. She cursed herself badly in her mind for not recognising such a monster. He was a total devil in disguise. He made her do things that Lilith loved to keep her alive. He was sick. “Wear this.

    Third person's p.o.v A calmness settled over the cemetery amid the gently swaying branches and the lovely kind of flowers. Linda kneed in front of her parents' grave. She missed them. She handed Morillo all the information that he needed a day before itself and came to seek peace near her parents today. She was going to settle for a new life and without their blessings, it would not be possible. Plus, as bizarre as it might be, she felt tranquillity in that space more than in the house. Daniel's mind was still processing her words so he did not disturb her after getting home. He went through a check-up in a clinic after the incident and shut himself in his room. She was hurting as well. After all, she still loved him but one-sided love would never be enough for a marriage. She went through it once.She had a conversation with Max as well and was relieved to know that he supported her in every decision. She sighed. Maybe she was cursed in love.

    Third person's p.o.vLinda lay down on the fresh green grass near the lake Lucas had shown her the other day. She needed some time alone for herself. Her presence counted for more than an hour. It would be a little quirky to say but she felt a connection with the place even when she first came here. Her mind continuously denied it but her heart did not. The peace of mind that she got was unbelievable. She decided to let her life go with the flow and accept all the positive things that were incoming. She was admiring the infinite sky when her mind sent her a signal to become alert as she heard fallen leaves being crunched as if people were walking on them. She stood up and hid behind one of the big trees and waited for the person to walk in. However, instead of one, she felt like there were more. She removed her shoes and tip-toed secretly to see what it was. She was surprised though. Lucas had told her that it was a secret passage. No one except her and him could experience the bea

    Third person’s p.o.vLinda woke up early in the morning and the memories of the day before flashed in her mind. It was a beautiful dream that would come once in a while. Daniel apologised to her for not buying her a cake but she reassured him that she did not want that either. Her day was made special by her special person. What made it even more exceptional was the time at the beach. After they had their dessert, they heard a boy singing and playing guitar for his girlfriend. Linda found it cute and complimented their pair as well as the boy’s idea to impress his girl. Nevertheless, she did not know what took over Daniel. He approached them and exchanged his car for the guitar for one hour. Thereafter, he asked Linda her favourite song and he played the guitar while singing to her. Linda felt blessed. She did not miss her father to such an extent that would damage her emotionally. She did not get the opportunity. Unwillingly, Daniel increased the love and respect she had for him

    Third person’s p.o.vLinda sat down in the movie theatre and was entertained by the film. On the other hand, Daniel sat down hiding his face at every moment he felt a jump scare would occur. While it was Linda who was supposed to be in that character, Daniel was playing that role. He gripped Linda’s hand and sometimes would hide his face behind her which would cause Linda to get annoyed. Yet, as a supportive friend, she would let him do that. After all, he had surrendered himself to her for that day. “You were such a baby.”Linda teased him while walking to the parking lot and Daniel was following her. He was still getting goosebumps. “You don’t need to remind me.”“Baby Daniel.”“Stop.” “Crying baby Daniel.”“What did you say?”At a pace, Daniel galloped in from behind her and came close to her threatening to say that again. Linda repeated and ran to their car full of laughter.She opened the door only to hear a loud bang and it was closed by a force which was eventually Daniel

    Third person’s p.o.vIn the morning when Linda woke up, she received a surprise that she thought was from Daniel. Her favourite pancakes and the petals of lilies were scattered on a small table next to her bed, which elated her. Just when she was about to devour the pancakes, her eyes snapped to the person entering her room. "Good morning." "Good morning, Daniel and it's bad manners to enter someone's room before asking for permission." Linda taunted him and he rolled his eyes. "Thank you for these by the way. They are totally delicious. You have improved a lot." Linda's thankfulness threw off Daniel and he stared at her blankly. "I would love to receive your gratitude but it's not me who prepared this." Daniel took a bite and let out the word yum. On the other hand, disappointment washed over Linda. She thought Daniel cooked her a special cake for her birthday. However, with that feeling, confusion tagged along. If it was not Daniel's doing then who. "My apologies for interr

    Third person's p.o.vLucas and Daniel were making their way to the girls when Lucas witnessed a hand on the surface of the pool. He analysed the place and a haze of fear surrounded him when he did not notice Linda's presence. He threw the drinks, not caring where or on whom it would end. Taking out his coat, he ran towards the pool and jumped in the water. Panic engulfed Daniel when Lucas performed those actions. He did what he needed to do and moved to the pool quickly. Terror seized him as Lucas brought the person out of the water. A half-unconscious Linda was in his arms. Blood drained from his face and he stood rooted to the ground."Lend me a hand." Only when Lucas shouted for help, he came to his senses. He pulled Linda out and held her in his arms. She was shaking from head to toe. Daniel removed his suit and covered her while Lucas got out of the pool and suggested making Linda sit on the couch above if she was comfortable and okay. Daniel sat along with Linda and provide

Her face was shining and she was looking drop-dead gorgeous. Her semi-embroidered pale-orange strapless dress highlighted her tiny waist, fitted her hips, and slightly stretched out. A less embroidered beneath cloth was seen through a side V-slit.He stood still, gaping at the woman who was making her way toward him. He had no idea why he wanted to continue looking at her.Lucas selected their masks and they directly came to him. “Hi.” Linda provided an energetic smile that radiated bright happiness. “Hi.”Daniel was affected by her affectionate smile and unwillingly blushed.
