HANNAH'S POVNote to self, for future purposes Christian and Zachary should never be left in a room. My eye stalks the gun by Christian's side, I watch both his expression and Zachary's. Zachary pulled off a confident smirk, I don't know the reason but I guess he doesn't give two fucks that this psychopath just tried to murder him. "Oh Hannah we were just talking about you." Christian said putting away his gun."Really ? Were you using me for one of your bets ? Or were you trying to sound some useless warning just to scare him. You chose the wrong person to mess with." I said walking over to Zachary who was glad enough to spill everything that went on before I came in. "You are aware your cousin wants to fuck you, right?" Zachary questions hiding his mortified expression very well. "Yes I'm aware." I said sidelining glances at Christian. "Since we were kids." I added."That's traumatizing." Zachary mocked, he shouldn't be in the position to mock or condemn Christian, he's well awar
ZACHARY'S POV".." I couldn't even utter a word. All I did was stare at her in disbelief. "I want you dead, how can you say that ?" I asked infuriated."It's my job to say that right ? As long as I'm loyal to you." Hannah didn't know but I just heaved a sigh of relief, I almost believed she was honest with her words."Don't say words like that lightly." I warned as she put on a smile, her lips stretched slightly, it was a small smile. "Why ? You don't fall in love easily, do you ?" She asked, rather she teased me."I'm just worried for you that's all, I don't want you falling for me since death is your fate at the end." I explained, she nodded in unison with my explanation. "You can be sure I do not find you attractive in any way so falling in love would just be a task. I won't do it." She assured."So, how do you plan on dealing with Sinclair ?" I immediately changed the topic of discussion."That's private, you'll be alerted the moment I figure it out, you have a company to run re
HANNAH'S POV"I don't need you to pick me up, Zachary already arranged for that." My lips mumbled as they tried to hide my infuriation. My uncle called to arrange a pick up, that meant I would have to see him and there is no way I'm going to even step foot at his house, I needed at least two days for myself after being discharged or at least away from that family.Not everything is about them."Are you sure ? " He coined his voice in a way that sounded threatening, he can say it to my face that he doesn't like me being away from him, I still will not stop by. "I am sure, I'm still a little faint, the doctor request that I rest to quickly recover." I muttered desperately, I would do anything at this point to get this man off my back. "If that's what you want." He said. "Just pay us a visit once you get better." He said ending the call. I hissed muttering a cuss out of desperation. I turned to the receptionist who was checking me out, when I was finally checked out I opened the hospita
ZACHARY'S POV"I'm beginning to consider you're cursed or something." I said to Hannah who was recently attended to, Kerry was by her side squeezing her hand."Could you not be so silly right now, Hannah just got shot Zachary." My brows furrowed at her, if I'm correct this could be the first time we've held a conversation or seen face to face."Well I'm sorry that pisses you off sweetheart." I jive at Kerry who proceeds to glares at me. "You're not actually sorry." She confirmed as I shrugged."Where's Tammy ?" Kerry asked looking around. "Having a talk with the police since you left her side someone has to inform the police on what happened." I said looking back at Hannah who kept quiet the entire time."How is it ?" My gaze fell to her stomach, the moment the police intervened, she was taken to the hospital and got stitches immediately. "I got shot at the stomach this time so there is no fact denying that I lost the pregnancy. It doesn't help the fact that Kerry filmed the whole thi
HANNAH'S POVMe and Kerry were going through our phones, none of us said a word to each other, I like that we didn't all I needed right now was quiet and no talk."Hey Anna." Kerry paused the moment Tammy walks in with a purple dress. It was a suit laced up, high waist dress. "Oh Tammy what's the occasion ?" Kerry asked."Mr Zachary bribed some of the staff to have you for the evening." Tammy said why I still tried to understand the gravity of her words. "Wait he took my advice ?" Kerry said and now I'm concerned, if it involves me then I don't expect this going well."What did you do ?" I asked Kerry, she chuckled lightly like tampering with my life and just laughing lightly would fix everything. "Speak before I conclude to never speaking to you again." I recites in hopes that she'll be threatened.I should know by now that threats don't work on Kerry. "Well you were feeling down and I suggested that Zachary throws you a graduation party." My eyes couldn't be any wider than now."You
ZACHARY'S POVIf I stepped any more closer towards her, I would have not have been able to control myself for what happened next. That thought alone was despicable enough. Hannah wasn't aware of my thoughts and let alone what's conspiring. "Then what is it ?" She asked."It's not important." I mumur. I tried as much as to avoid eye contact with her. "Very well, thank you for the dance." She said warming herself with both her arms. "Cold ?" I teased."Nope, I'm pretending as if I'm shivering." Hannah nudge. "Too bad we aren't in a movie, I didn't have a jacket with me." She stared me down, more of she glared at me. "And you had the audacity to invite me up here." I shrugged. "You could have declined." I mutter."Maybe next time I will." She said and for some reason I felt something like a thorn stub my torso, it was similar to a sting. "Do you feel better now ?" I asked hoping a change of topic will make me avoid interrogating whatever that weird feeling was."No, I'm still cold." I h
HANNAH'S POV"She's changed, ridiculous. Could she be anymore naive." I spat bitterly. Maybe this time if Naomi eventually shows up I'll actually kill her.Maybe I should track her down and murder her right before Kerry makes that phone call."Would you not have that look on your face anytime I see you ?" I turned to see Zachary, he's the last person that I would want to talk to right now but he's better than Kerry. "Would you stop telling me how my face should work, you have other things to control. One of them is not my facial expression." I recite bitterly. "Fine." Zachary hummed. "It's your face, just get back in there so we can all reach a conclusion." Zachary insisted. I already did conclude, when I walked out."Are you deaf ? I said I'll do it myself." I repeated."That was only you talking the rest of us didn't get a vote in it so your opinion is irrelevant." He was right.I walked passed him and then ahead of him. "Where are you going ?" His voice was loud enough for the who
ZACHARY'S POVI wondered why Jacob wouldn't wake up even though there wasn't any kind of fault. "So you're still working for your uncle ?" I asked Hannah who didn't seem to have a knack for talking."No." Hannah mutter. I wonder if the fact of her always being afraid was not because of the Sinclair problem. It had something to do with her uncle."Then is Kerry lying ?" I asked, she tried to avoid my gaze. She let go of my hands and shakes her head."She's not lying, I did poison Jacob. I didn't have any other choice." Hannah said. What did she mean she didn't have any other choice ? Didn't I make it clear to that family not to make Hannah do their nasty errands. "What else ? What were you also ordered to do ?" I asked. For her to keep me busy with her depressive state she had to be pressured to do something else."That was all." Kerry said. "And you were aware ?" I asked. "You're just making yourself look worse." I told Kerry hoping she knew she wasn't off the hook."Right now who l
"You look gorgeous." Kerry holds her chin merely glaring at him, if he was expecting a compliment back she wasn't going to give any. "See, you're behaving just like your mother, quiet, obedient. If you're lucky you could be my submissive as well." Kerry held her disgust down her throat."Well if I'm lucky you could loose your mind and snap my neck before then." Sinclair didn't mind her, he turned his back at her. "Hannah and Zachary are coming you better try your best to convince them you have to marry me or…""Yeah, yeah, or you'll tell the world that I was the one who murdered Liam Drew. I get it Sinclair so if that's all you got kindly find someone else to piss of I don't have the energy." Sinclair cast his gaze at her but she was unaffected, she was not like Hannah who would do anything to survive even though she was cornered. Kerry was different and it irritated him, he already hit her but she wasn't fazed, it was as if every single thing he tried to do to her was non threatenin
Beads of sweat stroke down the tepid across her face. Her sight was everything, he was the one taking in her agitated view, he wondered how carmine it would be with his member wrapped around the cusp of her lips. Hannah laid her head hoping to cool down the warmth across her face, she surmised him struggling, curious, she faced him head on just to see him devoid of his customary covering.Hannah basked at his bare figure, her teeth clamped her lips and if she dug any further she might have bled. Zachary leans over brushing his thumb over her lower lip, he held himself back from nibbling on them but the image of sweat drenched with blood aroused him. Another hand disposed of her under garment and Hannah couldn't stop a grin breaking across her pompous face. Her eyes stayed dove-like believing he would keep to his promise faster."You really are goddamn poignant." The grunt that followed lingered in Hannah's ears. He didn't even give her time to unwind her thoughts. He spread her legs
"How was today ?" Hannah brushed off his question, breathless between the kiss. Zachary smiled enjoying how oblivious she was to his question.He stopped the movement below their torso, curving a hand over her waist while the other hand helped hold her chin. "How was your day ?" Hannah didn't find his interruption funny at all, she didn't just encounter a death scare for this. "Don't do this Zachary." She almost whined trying to connect their lips once again but Zachary would not allow it."Not until you answer my question." He pressured."Christian finally shows up out of nowhere and planted a bomb on Olivia and Flora but I killed him before he could set the bomb off." This piece of information made Zachary weak all of a sudden, Hannah held his face crashing her lips on his as though she's been deprived of them for years.Zachary pushes her back. "Are you okay ?" Hannah's could understand his concern, he appeared as though he had witnessed the incident himself. "Mhmm." She mumbled
ZACHARY'S POVWhen I recommend for Claire to drop by sometime I didn't say she had to come by my house. I was busy or should I better rephrase that I was being drowned by work until she came over using my statement as armour. She waltz in without an invitation proceeds to raise the bridge of her nose. "You seem to have your work cut out for you." The irritation she had earlier was gone, it was her usual fake cheery self."Again, I'll repeat myself, get out of my house." I raised my voice a bit since the last two times were uneffective. "But you were the one who invited me Zachary, don't you think you should at least pretend you're happy to see me ?" "But I'm not happy to see you." I clicked my tongue at her. She pressed the back of her palm over her forehead. "Oh goodness Zachary can't you get a joke." She dropped her palm when she realized I'm dead serious about her absence."Why do you hate me so much ?" I don't know how she could so oblivious to the reason why so I just ignored h
"Hannah it's enough.." he increase his pitch a bit louder. Having enough he lunges to her fighting for the gun, her elbow nudge him away but he didn't let her go that easy. "It's enough.." Jacob yelled clamping a hold of the gun as well, she turned to him with tears rolling down her cheek. "It's not enough Jacob, it's not enough for what they did to me. They killed father, they drove my mother away. They made every damn day of my life a living nightmare. They exploited me and made me this mind fuck of a mess, I should have killed Ephraim not Sinclair, I should have murdered every single one of the Mendovas." Jacob nodded encircling his arms over her, he buries his forehead on her shoulder."I'm sorry for what happened to you, it must have been hard for you anyone in your situation would have ended everything so please just drop the gun okay ?" His soothing voice calmed her nerves, she was sobbing looking down at the gun in her grasps.Hannah found the scene familiar, the time she kill
Kerry looked at the documents Sinclair placed on the table for her. It was the actual will her father left behind. She didn't know how Sinclair got it but she wasn't surprised. "What is this ?" Kerry opened her mouth a little gasping in shock. "What do you mean by that ?" Sinclair's entire right arm cleared the table."You tricked me, I'm supposed to be the rightful heir to the widoeth's property, you made me look like a fool in front of everyone when your father.." Kerry put a hand up as pissed as Sinclair was, he paused."Look Asher, you're fucking loaded you don't need my father's property more than I do. I'm his fucking offspring and the original will did say it all belonged to me, the only difference is I'm not in a miserable position like my mother." Her hands were pressed on the table, she slowly lifts up her torso, pressing her back to the comfort of her seat."Taking what's rightfully mine isn't a trick, besides this documents could be a farce since you can't back down from l
HANNAH'S POV"What are you doing ?" Hannah watched Jacob fidgeting to get his phone from his pocket, beads of sweat dripping from his face with his face weighed down in panic. "What does it look like I'm doing ?" He quickly paid her a glance before going back to his phone. She leans over to him peeping the ID of the person on his phone."The police ?" Hannah raises her brow, what could the police do ? "I know you're not a fan of cops but my sister is close to being cafeteria's chili." His panic was understandable to Hannah, Flora was his sister and unlike the Mendova's the Montiquez actually like each other. "I doubt the police might have any knowledge on how to diffuse the bomb, your sister will end up dead faster if we contact them." Jacob held his phone in a pause mustering Hannah's words he couldn't help but think she was right"So what do we do ? Wait for the person who planted it to actually blow them up ?" Hannah shook her head. Jacob didn't understand how she was able to be so
HANNAH'S POVOlivia no longer likes me and that's okay I'm beginning to dislike her as well. I knew it wasn't going to be easy getting her to like me but she keeps bringing up stupid shit I did in college when we all went for the family dinner. She did say she was going to take everything from me and end me in ruins but petty banter seems rather sluggish.She stopped later on when Zachary and her had a talk, I didn't know what it is about but I'm glad that got her to shut up.I didn't want to handle it myself, I might have ripped her tongue out if I tried. The family dinner wasn't as bad as I thought it would have been.Diana did most of the talking and Flora talk when she could. She was mostly on her phone and I didn't mind. She did talk with Olivia mostly it's expected since they had a relationship to begin with.So tell me why Olivia met me with Darrin when I was at work to tell me how she and Flora were planning a girl's day out and to my surprise Flora wanted me to be there. How
ZACHARY'S POVTammy slightly bowed the moment she walked in and spotted my father, she quickly relays what she could and quickly leaves me and my old man to talk."She's like a robot." I nodded, I didn't really want to talk more on Tammy, I wasn't interested in discussing that. There wasn't even a need."Your wife how is she ? I heard she's working for another company now ? Trouble in paradise." My father may look like someone who has nothing to do with gossips but this man is the first one to know when something happens. Maybe it's because he and my mom married early and he had nothing better to do than to gossip with her all day, I suspect that is the case. "She was demanded by another company but the royalty she got alone from there was enough for Mom to give her the green light. If you want someone to gossip with you why don't you ask mom. All she does is call in Hannah and eat with her." If my father didn't get the gist I went straight to the point."Go and gossip with your wife
