Her eyes fluttered open, but it went shut almost immediately when the rays of the sun were too bright, and she covered the two eyes with her hand. She managed to turn to the other side of the bed as a yawn left her lips and she stretched out on the bed. The bed was empty beside her.She sluggishly sat up as she stared around the room, placing a listening ear to hear if the shower was running, but it wasn't. She rested back on the headboard, her whole muscles were aching, especially her waist level down to in-between her legs.Last night came rushing into her memories and she bit her lower lip in a chuckle, especially the look she got from Don when she told him she was still a virgin.Where her husband went to didn't hesitate in taking control of her thoughts. Or did he hit-and-run?Her eyes grew wider immediately when the thought crossed her mind. She hastily retrieved her phone from her purse and a gasp left her lips with a look of terror instead.The time was 2 pm. Had she been sle
In a dimly lighted cell room, a man was tied to the four angles of the room by his hands and legs, spreading apart.His loud screams filled the air, and it was that of pain. He wouldn't stop yelling and screaming for the outrageous shock running through his body to stop, but that was all in vain.His body shook violently again when the picana touched his skin, letting yet another scream leave his lips.Don stood a distance away from him, his hands crossed behind his back as he glared at the man in front of him. His face held no emotions. Watching him in agony was pleasant to his sight, but it was still not enough for him. Don scoffed out when the man let out an even louder scream. What a pleasant sound to his ears! Not like anyone would hear him and save his ass right now, this was his territory and no one dared question his authority.Draco dropped the picana and signaled some boys in the cell room to take a whip each. He was the one in charge of the torture, and the boys he had w
“You can stop the car right here.” Lillian alighted from the car as her gaze remained fixed on the gigantic gate near her.She jammed back the car door unconsciously and slowly attempted to go inside the gate.The boy who was in the driver's seat came out of the car, but didn't leave the driver's side. “Am I waiting behind?” He asked, diverting her attention back to him.“You should go home, I'll find my way back.”“No. My boss ordered not to come back home without you, so I'm coming along.” With this said, the boy walked up to her and stood behind her.She heaved a sigh and just turned back to knock at the gate. His opposition was the least of her problem right now.Shortly, the gate opened, and a security guard came into view. His face held surprise and shock, immediately he opened the gate.“Ma'am…” He stuttered, looking like someone who had just seen a ghost.“Are the owners in?” She heaved out again.This was the least of it all, the main drama was probably yet to play.“Ye…s.”
“Good morning Mom.” Lillian gave Mrs. Helen a side hug, to which she reciprocated with a bright smile.“Morning dear. I hope you had a wonderful night?” She asked after they disengaged.“Yes mom. I slept like a princess.” Lillian settled herself on one of the dining chairs.“Good morning dad.” She glanced at him still with the smile and he smiled back.“Beautiful morning to you too, princess.” They had a long and notable discussion yesterday which made Lillian understand why they do what they do to her up until this day. She's come to realize that they have all done what was best for her and the family, so no one else would get hurt, especially her.Her father clarified that the reason they took her away from Los Angeles years back and got her married immediately she got back was all for a prophecy that was said on the day she was born.At first, she found it ridiculous, but after he explained that if they didn't do everything they've done, then the family would have totally been in
“Is he awake?”“Yes boss.” The guard didn't hesitate to open the small cell gate for his boss and sister.As usual, Don's hands were clasped together behind his back while his sister walked by his side till they halted a few meters away from the hostage.The man's face was lowered to the ground, but when he noticed their presences, he lifted his gaze to them weakly.From his face down to his waist was all bloody and his legs were covered in a grubby looking pants. He looked like he would drop dead any moment from then, and the chains restraining him from the wall wasn't helping at all.“I will just go straight to the point. Why did you try to kill me?” Don asked calmly, but that was the opposite of what he felt inside.He was infuriated and badly wanted to get his hands on him. The only thing stopping him was the promise he made to his sister not to punish him today.He was probably half dead and might die if dealt with today, especially by Don.“Haven't you done enough? You should a
The maid sauntered into the balcony with a tray containing two glasses of strawberry mocktail, as she served the two ladies with a bow.“Thank you.” Bella and Lillian uttered simultaneously before taking a long sip, Bella exhaling sharply after that.“Goodness, that was refreshing.”The maid bowed deeper one last time and walked away.“Everything that happened earlier was because you all now know the culprit?” Lillian repeated the same thing Bella had told her before the maid came to serve them.Her brows were raised with questions written over her face.“Who is this culprit, if I may ask?” She asked yet another question.“Umm, it's not someone you might really know, but you don't have to worry, my brother is on it.” Lillian heaved out a sigh, still not looking satisfied at Bella's words. Seeing Don earlier, it seemed like hell would let loose with his anger and action.She's known him for some time now and knew fully well the result of his anger. He could do the undone!'What was go
“The lady who was brought in here a while ago, do you know where her cell is?” Lillian anticipated the obvious answer as she raised a brow.This was the cell guard, after all, so he would definitely know.She glanced behind her, hoping Don wouldn't barge in there at that moment. She wasn't ready for his questioning, of which she knew would come later on. “I'm sorry, ma'am, but we were strictly ordered not to let anyone in at the moment.” His face looked stern as he uttered this without any remorse.“Oh.” Lillian nodded slowly and feigned a smile before turning to go.No doubt, something was going on inside. Or was Don inside as well?She didn't leave the area completely as she hid behind a wall, hoping for the guard to desert the place soon. She had a few questions for Clarissa, and she also heard that the hitman who shot at Rex was there, so she wanted to know why Risa did what she did.A few minutes passed, and the guard didn't leave his post, this made Lillian lose hope. She would
Lillian walked as though counting her footsteps with her head lowered to the ground. She felt uneasy about her movement right now, but couldn't help it. It was as if her dress offended her with the way she fought with it, squeezing the sides tight.Don had sent a guard to call her into his room and somehow, she felt it was about what he saw earlier. What if it was truly about Drake, what would she say then?All what she had been trying to avoid in the beginning was coming back to hunt her with so much force.Since her blissful night with Don in his other house, she never imagined visiting him in this manner, looking so restless and filled with thoughts that made her heart skip.Glancing up at the two men who stood gallantly at the door in front of her, she gulped down nothing and exhaled sharply but softly.They didn't hesitate to pave the way by opening the door for her. She let out a slow sigh before walking fully into the room.The door locked behind her, and immediately a pair of
