2024-10-29 19:42:56Jacob's pov....
I was working on these files for the past two hours. I have an important presentation tomorrow. It isn't even 10 o'clock and I am already feeling sleepy.
My eyes started dropping close, I rested my head on the study table and darkness consumed me.
I suddenly jerked awake and groaned in frustration as I heard my phone ringing. Arrggg.....Can't even have a peaceful sleep.
It was Agustin's call. I immediately picked up his call.
"Hello."
"Hello, Jackob, I want you to come to the restaurant, you booked for my date with Onika."
I subconsciously stood up.....hyper alert now. Something was wrong. He was sounding pissed."What happend are you guys alright? " I asked, worried.
My heart was beating fast. Thousands of thoughts enveloped my mind. Is Onika alright? Did Agustin again do something to her?

Jacob's pov(continued)......."Do you want to hear a story?" I asked her, keeping my anger at a bay.She looked at me confused. Then simply nodded her head without any clue. She must be thinking I have gone mad, telling a story in between of this serious discussion."Once upon a time there was a beautiful bird with most beautiful wings.. She was the apple of her owners eye. Who never let her out of her cage in the fear of loosing her.All the other birds were jealous of her, for she had everything they ever wished for. She doesn't had to fight for food,water and shelter like other birds, she had all the best things at her feet, at her deck and call.But only she knew the truth."Do you want to know the truth?" I asked her and she nodded her head vigorously like a small child."she was suffocating from inside. She always questioned God why

Agustin's pov.......I woke up earlier then usual even though I slept late because of the throbbing headache.I shouldn't have behaved like that with her, but what else can I do she always know how to get on my nerves and I just lost my temper even after best of my efforts.I need to be more careful and have some self control when ever I am around her. But no worries I will make it up to her once we start living together.I just don't understand why can't she see how much I love her and will do anything for her. I love her so much that now it hurts, not being with her. I just can't wait anymore, every second without her is like a punishment.I have already given my lawyer the ultimatum to keep everything ready. I will take her signature on those damn papers today itself.I am so excited to live with her like old days. Everything will be just

Onika's pov....."Come in." Came his irritated voice. He indeed is not in a good mood. God knows what is to come about.I sighed and opened the door.And what I saw was, he was throwing some papers on one of my colleague's face."Collect those craps and get the hell out of here." Agustin shouted at him and he immediately collected the paper and hurried out of his cabin while giving me a sympathetic look as if wishing me luck.When Agustin finally looked at me his eyes softened and he gave me a small smile as if all his bad mood disappeared in the thin air. "please have a seat." he said, his tone gentle suddenly. 'Please' have I heard him right? I can't believe my ears.I proceeded towards the seat with shaky legs. What the fuck is wrong with me? I don't need to fear him. I didn't even do anything wrong. Then again when had I ever done anything wrong to Agusti

Onika's pov.......I hate him.I hate him.I hate him with every fibre of my being.What was he thinking, threatening Alex like that when he knows what Alex means to me. He only said he will give me a week's time then what got over him? He is a true monster, an insensitive, unfeeling, immoral , bastard.I will never forgive him for this.And I have no doubt that he will act on his threat, he always does.What do I do? Now running away is also not an option because for a fact I know I am being watched by his men and even if I outwit them there is nowhere to go.It won't take him long before he finds me and then everything will be even more worse. Moreover, this time no one is there to help me out. Somehow I know no matter how much Jacob care about me, he will never betray Agustin.

Jacob's pov........I and Agustin are sitting in here in his office since last night, trying to track that motherfucker down. But to no Avail. As if suddenly he has disappeared from the face of earth. How the hell did he hide so well.How the bloody hell, is something I can't understand.Agustin won't sleep, won't eat, basically won't do anything since he had heard that, that fucker was seen near Onika. So he won't rest until he get his hands on him.Well the same goes for me. It's boiling the blood in my veins to even imagine him any where near her.Agustin pulled me out of my thoughts by saying" Onika is there in my mansion and I am here trying to get that rat out of his hole. I will make that pig pay for each and every second I am away from her. One day out of 3 months is already gone. Which in itself is more than worth his pathetic life."

Jacob's pov.....He looked what I felt- devastated, ruined to be exact. And all we could do is wait.But at least Agustin don't have to mask how he feels. I can't let it show on my face. I have to maintain my cool.I feel like Agustin is already getting suspicious about my feelings for Onika and if he ever comes to know about it there is no telling that it is not gonna end well for any of us and I can never betray him knowing that Onika means the world to him, the proof of it right before my eyes.A look at Agustin right now and you will know what Onika means to him....... everything. The worst part is she means everything to me as well, now there is no denying that, not after how I am feeling right now.I can't say he love her or not but he can't live without her is quite clear to me, now. But the choice whether she want him back or not should be purely hers,

Onika's pov......I looked at him, stunned, my eyes wide in disbelief. What the fuck did he just ask?Firstly he told Agustin that I and he were having affair now he asks me whether the child is Agustin's or Jacob's. Has he completely lost, whatsoever little brains he had.I didn't know loathing someone to this extent is even possible for a human being as much as I loathe this person infront of me right now.I swear if I had a gun I would have shoot him right away, screw the consequences. I am ready to go to hell happily if I get to kill this man.I gave him a look of absolute disgust."Don't tell me you don't know that Jacob is head over heels for you" he said with a smirk on."How dare you, you bastard. Agustin may have been stupid enough to believe you but not me. You are just cooking things up, you bastard" I shouted at him and snarled at him in disgust. T

Agustin's pov......It has been 3 hours since she is gone. And I can't do a thing about it. I had never felt so helpless in my whole fucking life and never thought I would. And it is not helping either to know that I am the one because of whom she is suffering.I shouldn't have left her alone for a second. She even came to talk to me but my negligence and carelessness made it impossible for her to get to me.The worst part is he is no common criminal who is doing this for money, or I would have gave away whatever the fucker would have demanded, whatever. But that bastard is doing this to get at me. Once again Onika have to go through so much at my expense.Once I get my hands on that bastard I will burn his whole existence into ashes. He think he can hurt what is mine I will show him what happens to the one who does that. Be ready for the consequence Xavier. Even his name sounds s

Making peace with his demons.With the truth.The truth that tore his whole world apart, leaving him with a constant ache in his chest. Leaving him vulnerable. Leaving him dead inside.

Few Days Later....Agustin slowly got down on his knees and rubbed the top of his daughter's grave with his palm, ever so slowly as if touching something very fragile, as if brushing off some imaginary dust which might have found its way to his precious daughter's grave, almost in the same fashion as he would pat the head of his child if she were alive.He did it again, and again... and again, the motion becoming vigorous with every passing second, with every stroke, in a state of trance, he kept doing it till his hands were completely tired and he can't move it anymore. He stopped and looked at his palms it was a deep shade of red, he furrowed his brows as he realised he can't feel anything.Taking a shaky breath, he took out the orchids and placed it over the top of the cemetery, with the same frailness and tenderness as someone would show while dealing with their most loved possession, most precious poss

Onika's Pov....I looked at the divorce papers infront of me."I have signed the papers, your turn" Agustin said, his voice surprisingly void of any emotion.That was quick, Agustin was discharged from the hospital yesterday itself, though I was still unsure of what will be Agustin's decision, he could be so unpredictable that I won't ever bet on anything when it comes to Agustin, but somewhere I kind of knew this is what he will do, or at least I prayed, what I didn't expect was he will be this quick to take the decision.So this was the moment I have been waiting for, I am just a signature away and every thing will be over.I eyed the papers for too long as if expecting it to vanish in thin air."You can read the papers before signing," he said, mistaking my lack of response with with my lack of trust."Of course," I said.

Agustin's Pov...."Take legal action against me, I am ready to confess my crimes, Every. Single. One. Of. Them" I said sternly, even though I don't feel even legal actions will be enough, nothing is enough anymore, but that can be a start.Her lips parted in disbelief and she kept looking at me incredulously."Prove it Onika." I repeated again, I want this, I need this, desperately.She recovered from her shock.Her nose flared, breathing quickened, she closed her eyes forcefully, clenching her fist to her sides and before I can blink she slapped me, slapped me so hard my head turned to the other side."Are you trying to mock me?" She said."Is it still me who needs to prove things to you?" She sneered through gritted teeth, her eyes flushing with anger."How fucking dare you?" She clenched her teeth, I have very rare
Grieving Hearts Chapter-58
Onika's POV...I stared at Agustin's pale figure laying on the hospital bed, IV line attached to his wrist, his eyes closed, a small frown on his forehead. Even with his eyes closed he looked troubled. I took few calming breaths to remind myself that he is fine now. I have been sitting beside his bed since past five hours now, and he haven't moved a muscle.He is looking so lifeless at the moment....my heart cringed at the thought. I think this is why Jacob didn't take me with him, he already knew how it's going to be. Thank God Jacob reached there on time, if not for him... I don't even want to think about it.I have never wanted something so desperately as I want for him to open his hazel eyes and look back at me. I brought my hand to his cheek, tracing a large bruise at the side of his cheek with my finger ever so lightly. He didn't flinch, didn't moan in pain, nothing.I know I should have been t

Third Person....Agustin De Luca was driving the car through the eerie silent, dark night, not aware where he was going, but he did have one place in his mind. Tears streaming down his face, feeling guilt so profound that his whole body was shaking with silent sobs, for he had killed not only the soul of the women he loved, but also his own daughter.Sickening sounds reverberating in his head.'You were pregnant--''It was a girl--''The report said there were marks of abuse all over your body--''Please stop''--It said you can never get pregnant again due to complications.''Don't.... please don't.''Congratulations Agustin Deluca..I am everything you ever wanted me to be.I am ruined.'The car stopped with a screech infront of a boxing club

Jacob's POV...I groaned in frustration at the noise interrupting my sleep, and pulled my pillow over my ear to block the noise. It took me some good time to get oriented and realise, it is past midnight and it's my phone ringing.It's my phone ringing?!I immediately woke up, my eyes wide open now, the first thought coming to my mind, Onika.I looked at the screen, it was Onika indeed, at this time of the night? My heart got caught in my throat, as different types of unpleasant thoughts started coming to my mind.I immediately picked the call."He--hello Ja--Jacob Ag--Agustin--" she started sobbing and her voice was completely hoarse as if she had cried her eyes out, I was not able to understand anything clearly."Agustin what Onika? please speak clearly I am not able to understand anything, did Agustin hurt you?"I clenched my fist tightly, waiting for her answer, holding my breath. I was already making my way towards m

Onika's POV...I came back home and directly went to check on Alex. After making sure he was sleeping peacefully, I made my way towards my room.My head hurts, my heart hurts, Jacob's face keeps flashing infront of me, his pained express, his troubled eyes, like had went through a series of endless torture.....all because of me. I can't wash away the guilt that is painfully squeezing my heart.Jacob went through all that pain, why didn't he ever tell me anything before?He went through hell, what for, so that Agustin stays happy. Huh.The irony of the situation suddenly hit me like a hammer, Can I even blame Jacob? Isn't that what I did as well, and the worst part is Agustin can still make me feel bad for him, like he is also a victim in all this, may be he is, as much as I would love to blame everything on Agustin somewhere I know he is hurt as well, one can't expect his

Agustin's POV.....It's been two hour since I told Kane to investigate into the matter, no call nothing, what is taking him so long?I was restlessly pacing around my room, any bit of sound had me running for my phone, my heart was about to come out of my rid cage.I eyed Onika's file, suspiciously. Maybe she might have mentioned something in her later entries. I took the file and opened it with shaky hands...........................................................# Day 30You remember Agustin once you looked right into my eyes and asked me, 'Was your love not enough for me that I betrayed you the first chance I got?'One beat, two beat, three beat and I don't know how many beats passed and I just kept staring at you, letting it sink into my head what you ju
