CELINE’S POV“Yes, I am Jane.” I say and stand up from the bed. I stare at them very confused. My eyes lurk from one to the other.“Please, is there anything wrong?”Hudson quickly chips in and stands closer to me. “There is nothing really wrong. We just want to have a word with her.” The brown-bearded policeman says and flicks his gaze at Hudson.“She was at the scene of the attack so it’s just a casual question to get full information about what happened for us to be able to get the culprit.” He explains further and nods his head. “Okay.” Hudson nods and smiles at me. He turns to me and nods. I guess he is trying to make me seem safe with them. I think he is very gentlemanly though. “So ma’am, can I ask you a few questions about your relationship with the victim, Miss Harley Rolands?” He asks. “Sure. But before we do that, can we please move outside. I don’t really appreciate us doing that here. I don’t want to disrupt her rest.” I bawl. I don’t feel comfortable having such a di
CELINE'S POVYou have always wanted me and since I have always refused you, you decided that you are going to kill my Harley. This is so pathetic and frustrating that you want to kill the one person that lived and cared about you since you came to this city. How cruel can humans be? So disgusting!” Kyle spits and tries coming closer to me but the police hold him back. Truly I don’t understand what is going on here. “Are you serious? Aren’t you the bastard who has always wanted me despite I am the friend of your girlfriend you perv.” I fire back at him. “I think I have heard enough” officer Dudley says and stands in. He pulls a pack of cigarettes out from his side pocket and pulls out one stick which he places in between his lips. He lights it and puffs out the smoke. “I think but love the turn this has taken. I guess you are The victim’s boyfriend, are you not!?“ he asks and turns into the lying bastard. I tighten my fist and glare at him. I wish I could just grab him on his throa

He came with me right from the hospital and he has been trying to console me. Unknown to him thag j am not broken but rather I am worried about what Kyle must’ve planning if maybe he is the one behind the attack.“I’m fine Hudson. Thank you for everything till now” I coo and smile at him with my hands placed on the bars of the cell . There is indistinct chatter that the officers and others detained are making. I am alone in my dark cell.“You don't have to thank me. Just make sure to stay fine till I get you out of her.I’d make sure to get your bail beodethr Ned of the day. Kk matter what happens, I am going to make sure you don't stay here for long” he promises. A smile limps to my face and I stare at him. Our eyes lock together.

CELINE’S POV“Can you just fucking just stop with the whole suspense thing!” I rushed at him. He chuckled and placed his hand on the bar. “Come close” he whispers gently and brings his head closer to the bar cell. For sure you know I am not going to love because I don’t take order from him. “Are you sure you really want to hear what I have to say? If yes,. Yo Better draw nearer and what it is and my reason why I lied against you as you say. Don’t make me change my mind” he threatens. I remain reluctant and stare at him from the spot I have being standing at since he came. “Okay then, I take it that you refuse to come closer to me. you are no longer interested to know why I lied against you at the hospital. I guess it’s best I just leave then.” He say and Pills his had away from the bar cell and moves backwards to leave. He drops the cookies he bought for me on the floor. He takes a strong gaze at me before he turns to leave.“Wait!” I spit with a broken voice. As Lucia s I don’t e
CELINE’S POV“You have only one choice and that is to accept my offer” Kyle's words stick in my head even till now. Kyle has left for like an hour but still I can’t stop thinking about all he said to me when he was here. As much as I seemed very tough with him, I am very worried. I am not worried about myself because there is no way I am yielding to his option of becoming his. I am only worried about Harley who is in a coma and can’t defend herself. What if he tries to kill her. I sprout up from the bench and start pacing the tiny shallow room. Kyle is a very rugged and vicious person from his behavioral pattern, I have grasped that about him. For sure he is going to do what he has said he would and I Will do mine too. I just wish the police can see through his lies. The son of a bitch has a nice plan but I promise him that there is no way at all he is winning. I scratch the back of my hair Stand beside the wall. I am feeling really hungry right now. I have been starving of real m

I really do not understand what just happened here. I raise my hand to my head and swipe my hair to the side. This surely makes no sense and at the same time is perplexing. I don't understand How I see Atlas in officer Dudley. It seems stranI'm all ramification. “Why did you call me Atlas, I thought you said that is the name of your boss, or am I now your boss without knowing?” He chuckles and proceeds more close to the Bar. I close my eyes and skim them open to be sure that I am not seeing wrongly. Yeah, truly it is officer Dudley. But then how is this even possible and what is the cause of it? why would I refer to Dudley as Atlas? I sigh heavily with my eyes cruising“I am sorry ab
CELINE’S pov“Sit” he spits and presses me to the chair that is facing another chair. I Sit down and lay my cuffed hands on the table which is just in front of me. He walks to the other end and sits facing me. “As you can see, we are Both alone and I really wish that we have a transparent conversation just the both of us” he coos and reclines backward, resting his back on the back of the chair. “Okay” I sigh and flip my eyes. I gulp down saliva and lick my lips after which I lace him a pale stare. He places his hand on the chair and gawks directly into my eyes as though wanting to bring both something from them. not etahe redrafting for the lost of his life or His kissing rib. You all Surely know I won't be intimidated by that. I leave my Eyes directly at him, also peering into his gaping globes.

My eyes roar at him but I say nothing. Just as he wants to come close to me, the door hinge creaks. I turn my stare at the door and it is surprisingly Atlas Finn at the entrance while wearing a bold face in a black sleek suit with his right hand fully stacked in his pants pocket. I don’t think I am going to fall into this mental trap anymore. I am sure it is my head playing With me like it did before. I close my eyes and sigh before I shoot them back open. “Mr Atlas!” Officer Dudley’s voice shoves me back to reality. I sunken my eyes and lash at Atlas who is staring at me sternly as though I have offended him. His brows are slanted and his eyes shift inside. He walks deep into the room with all majesty and his ha
