Lucinda Ava's P O V

"hiss"

I hissed as the pain shot through my body, bringing back the memories while sitting up on the bed, leaving the comfortable position on the soft mattress.

My eyes filled with tears as the pain became unbearable with each little movement I made.

My gaze falls on my body, travelling through the bandages that are covering the painful wounds in a daze, and a strange sense of calmness covers my heart as I close my eyes, letting the tears finally flow. With one thing on my mind.

It's done. It's finally done. I finally paid for my sin of hurting something innocent.

The memories of seeing his face before closing my eyes. Thoughts of him saving me from the pain. The feeling of huge, comfortable arms around my body, hugging me protectively as he carried me away from there, from the pain.

I brought my legs closer to my chest despite all the pain and hugged them for comfort. To feel his warmth that is stored in the back of my head.

"You woke up." His deep dark voice

What if William actually gets to my friends with this information?! No! No... Don't think about it. He can't get to them just with this... right?"So it was not for my sister-in-law?!" His voice deepened as he took a step closer, staring into my eyes to get more information.I pressed my back against the wall, trying to escape, but I couldn't, and I am trapped in his presence. I bite my lips harder from letting another word out.I am the one in the wrong, so I should bear the consequences, not the other way around. "Fucking say something?!" He shouts in frustration after receiving silence as my answer, taking a step closer. "I am sorry," I whispered, avoiding his eyes, and stood still.

    Lucinda Ava's P O V The cool breeze brushed against my skin painfully as I stood in front of my best friend's home. I don't know why, but I know that she won't freak out like my mother or my other friends. And I wanted that. I don't want to over explain things, so I just rest for a few minutes and enjoy my freedom for the last time before trying to convince everyone. I stood there straight so I wouldn't scare her with the amount of pain I was going through, and then I raised my heavy hand to press the bell while the pain shot through my body, but I didn't let that show in my face while I waited there for a few seconds, and Georgia opened the door, asking, "Who is this?". Her eyes widen as they land on me. I gave her a small smile before rushing in and laying on the sofa. She followed me in shock, asking, "what... what the hell happened to you, Lucy?! Why are you hurt?! Who the hell did that to you?!". "I got into an accident," I replied dryly, not turning to her. She is the only

    "So, you made a choice?" His dark voice vibrated in the room, making me flinch. I brought my legs closer in fear, as if I could stop this fear from crawling through my skin, reaching all parts of my body, and nodded my head, whispering "yes.". "Here." He slammed the contract in front of me. I flinched, raised my head, and looked into his dark, angry blue eyes, immediately lowering them in fear.I once wished for him to spare me a glance, and that could make my day, but right now, his deep blue eyes scare me the most, and I don't want him to even look at me."You are ready to sacrifice yourself to save that motherfucker?!" His angry voice rang in the room with a hint of pain, making me flinch, and an instant guilt followed. I feel so guilty for hurting the man that I love the most, and yet... I am not ready to hurt the other important people in my life. I tried my best to stay calm, not giving him an answer."Fine! I know how to make you talk!" His voice was low and filled with ange

    Lucinda Ava's P O V "God! You are finally here!" Kylie let out a heavy breath in relief and then turned her voice to an angry one, saying "Why the hell are you so late?!". I turned to her with a huge smile, trying to cool her down. Then I paid for the cab, saying "Thank you". He just smiled at me and then drove away. "Traffic, you know?!" I replied casually, taking her hand in mine and trying to cool her down with a lie. There was no traffic, and I spent all these hours trying to look a little more beautiful with all the makeup that I never tried before. I never had the luxuries to own makeup or go to the salon. We could use that money to get something useful or a good meal for dinner. Many people might think that makeup is not that expensive, but for me, it is! It is so fucking huge for us, a family without a father and a mother with heart problems. The cost of her treatment is much more than we could afford, and we try our best not to spend money on anything, not even on dresse

    Lucinda Ava's P O V Finally, I did a few errands to escape their stupid games and left before they could force me to play another stupid game of theirs. I don't know how their parents allow them to play with drugs like it is nothing. I shook my head and walks straight, trying my best not to let anyone know that I am drunk. This is my first time drinking so I have no idea how people like it! It is bitter, burns your throat and I can't even stand steady! But the most important problem now is, I can't let my mom know this! She will kill me! "Ouch!" I whispered, bumping into a wall! I can't even see the wall in front of me. I opened my eyes and saw it was not a wall but a person, so I raised my head to look and it is William! The William Black! I felt a warm sensation passing through my body, bringing me back to reality! I sobered up as I moved back a little, getting embarrassed and frustrated! How could I be so stupid?! What will William think about me?! "Ms. Ava? Are you okay?" his

    William's P O V I stared at the scene in front of me in disbelief. How is this possible? What the hell is happening? How did everything turn out like this in just a few minutes of my absence? My brother Danial, who is so conscious about his public image that he never even got into an argument, is punching a guy to death. My eyes turned to the other fragile figure lying on the bed, covered in the quilt, but I could see that she was naked underneath. My eyes widened as I ran to her, covered her body completely, and carried her in my arms. So I could take her out from these prying eyes that are ready to destroy us in any little chance they get. "What the fuck are you looking at? Get out!" Noah shouted at the crowd, watching everything like it was some kind of entertainment. My brother saw this as he got up from the almost-dead body of whoever that fucker was. He walks up to me and stretched his arm and whisper shouted "Don't let that fucker die! he should fucking beg for his death!".

    William Blake's P O V I leaned back in my seat as I couldn't bear to see her in pain. Even though she turned my world upside down, and killed my only 2 families, and yet, this stupid love can't see her in pain. Noah knows about my feelings so he wanted to take Lucinda to his torture room and get the information we need but I stopped him. I know his intentions and the method he uses to get those informations. If it is any other man or woman, I couldn't care less but in fact, I could torture that person with him but it turns out to be Lucinda..... even though I don't want to love her. I did and can't even imagine her going through something like this. It's just broke my heart. So I told him that I could take care of everything and I tried to hurt her but I couldn't even raise my hand to even touch Lucinda. At that point, I hated myself so much because I couldn't do anything for my innocent sister-in-law, who has always been my mother. I hate myself because I couldn't hurt the one

    Lucinda Ava's P O V Pain.... Is the only thing I can feel right now, throughout my body, every part and every nerve. Please.....Is the only thing I tried to whisper, unable to open my lips to tell or beg the person in front of me so they could stop even though I knew they wouldn't. How could they stop this pain while they are the reason for it? My eyelids are stuck with each other in my tears of pain that didn't stop from the very moment my body went through immense pain. I can't open them no matter how hard I try. I forced my eyes to blink and to look through the room and the person that is putting me through such pain that I never went through in my entire life. Asking me to name someone that doesn't exist or should I say, asking the name of someone that they believe exists.They don't understand that I am the only reason for everything. I fucking did it on my own or in the effect of alcohol, forgetting to do the right thing and bringing this on myself while hurting someone. I

  • His Dark Obsession   who....?

    William Black's P O V My entire world came crumbling down when I learned the truth... The painful truth of the most devastating incident. I was ready to torture and kill anyone and everyone that is involved in the death of my sister-in-law, but my heart fell to my stomach when I saw Lucy with my very own eyes, mixing the drug in my sister-in-law's drink that led to her death and my brother's coma. I tried to process it, but that stupid love in me refused to believe it..... Refused to accept, and refused to see the truth! But the pain was so much to bear that I couldn't do anything but suppress it deeper and harder in my heart, filled with darkness and it was getting much harder to hold them in with the pain and darkness increasing with each passing second. With each passing second, I try to figure out the real culprit even though I know it is none other than the woman that I wanna make my wife. The woman that I fucking loved and the only woman that I ever led my eyes on. After goi

    Lucinda's P O V"Everything is fine with your mom. If she continues to take the medicine and take care of her body like now, then we can conduct the operation that she needs." I smiled walking out of the hospital, thinking about the doctor's words. Despite his earlier reassurance, I couldn't shake off my fear, but the news of my mom's improvement brought immense relief and happiness to me. "I got a good job. My mom's health is getting better and she can take the operation soon. My brother is doing well with his studies and slowly taking responsibility. Finally, everything is going on the right track and soon, we can come out of this life to lead a better one," I told myself with a smile while walking towards the bus stop that was just a few meters away. Justin was ready to wait while I was talking with the doctor, but I forced him to go back because he had a lot of work after taking over some of his father's business. I don't want to make him delay his important work just for me.

    Lucinda's P O V "What's wrong with you, Lucy?".Justin's words brought me back from the daze as I stared at his worried face for a second, realizing he was worried about me. I shook my head and gave him a reassuring smile, saying "Nothing, I am good". His reaction remained the same as I turned to look at Stella, Kylie, and Alexander. They all have the same reaction as Justin. "What happened?" I asked cracking a smile, trying to bring back the normal environment between us. "We are supposed to ask that! Did something happen yesterday? Are you okay? Did you drink anything? Or did you meet with anyone?" Stella asked in worry as she took my hand in hers. It confused me, as I didn't know what they were worried about. "NO... I am fine. Are you guys okay? Why are you being like this?" I asked, confused. Now I am worried about them. "It's just that...." Before Alex could say anything. Justin cut him off by saying, "You left in the middle of the game and you seemed drunk yesterday, so w

    William Black's P O V"Fine," his words of agreement provided a momentary comfort, but his next statement struck me hard. "Just for 5 minutes." It is not enough! But…. do I have a choice? No, I don't! I am already grateful that I can see her for the last time.... and give her my goodbye for the last time. My heart tightens in pain with the invisible hand. "Yes, thank you," I whispered as the invisible hand around my heart unclenched a little. I turned to Noah and nodded, and he understood that we both could go in. Then we both walked toward the gate, where people stood ready to block us, brandishing their weapons, prepared to kill us at any moment. Mr. Leonardo's right-hand man, Mr. Jack, standing in front of everyone, received a call. His eyes never left us as he answered and started talking. His facial expression confirmed that he was conversing with Mr. Leonandro. Impatiently, I stepped forward with Noah. I couldn't bear to miss seeing Lolita at the very last moment. The call en
