I hesitated, with my heart racing. I was aware I shouldn't get close to anyone in this new project let alone build attachment as I was willing to risk my life and put an end to this, but Iskander's sincerity was undeniable."Iskander," I called out with a whisper, my eyes searching his face. "You've already done so much for me. I don't know what I would have done without you."I stepped closer, my body drawn towards his like a magnet. I could feel the warmth radiating from him, the strength in his arms. The moment seemed to slow down, as the world around us began fading into the background."I know I shouldn't," I said, with my voice low, I was feeling things I couldn't explain. "but I can't fight this anymore."Iskander's hand cupped my face, his thumb brushing against my cheek.I leaned in and closed the distance between us with my lips finding his in a kiss that was both gentle and passionate. I could feel the surprise in his body, a momentary hesitation that quickly dissolved into

The bright and sunny sky with the fresh warm air greeted me as I stepped out of the plane, holding Austin tightly in my arms. My heart, still beating rapidly from the events that I had just experienced, my heartbeat began to slow down. I couldn't believe we had made it out alive, let alone escaped to a place of safety. Glancing over my shoulder, I saw Iskander guiding the babysitter towards the terminal. The sight of him, rugged and determined, filled me with a sense of relief and gratitude As I made my way through the airport, the sight of normalcy around me contrasted sharply with the chaos and danger I had faced back in Hawaii. Yet, even as the adrenaline began to subside, my mind was already fixating on one thing which was retribution."Enough," I muttered under my breath, a strong determination replacing the fear that had gripped me earlier. "I'm going to find out why Sarah is after me, and I'm going to end it."Austin's soft coo snapped me back to reality. I glanced down at his

The babysitter laughed with her bandaged arm at Austin. “He's always looking for one reason to cry,” she said. “No, he's just unhappy that his mother is crying, that's how he consoles her,” He said.We drove for hours, through the city and then out into the countryside. The babysitter was quiet, her eyes closed as she rested. I tried to stay alert with Iskander, scanning the landscape for any sign of danger. But the soldiers seemed confident that we were safe, and eventually, my nerves began to settle. As we drove further and further from the city, I started to relax. The soldiers were highly skilled, and I felt confident that they would keep us safe. I looked over at the babysitter, who was still sleeping peacefully. I felt a wave of gratitude wash over me. She was safe, and I was glad she survived, I didn't want her to be part of something she knew nothing about, and being the victim through death would make me hate myself.We pulled into a street and the soldiers led us through a

Iskander kept mute for a while, then he sighed. “All right, who is this soldier you seem to trust so much,” he said looking at me.“Soldier Bellion” I replied immediately. “You trust him? You just met him”. Iskander said looking like I said something wrong. “She is a female actually, But I address her by her third name since her first is Sarah.” I stopped to catch my breath. “Since Sarah is trying to kill me, we had to use another name” I added. “I see,” Iskander said slowly. Just then Soldier Bellion walked in, she reduced her pace as she stared at Iskander critically. “Is he your brother?” She asked as she stood between the both of us. “No no, he is not” I quickly responded. “I am so sorry,” Soldier Bellion said. “This is a first,” I said grinning. “First what?...” Soldier Bellion asked. “So you see the question usually goes ‘Is he your husband’ This is a first to be ‘Is he your brother?’ I explained softly to her. “I understand now” she nodded. “He is my bodyguard,” I told her. I

"I'm with some soldiers," I say, trying to keep my voice calm. "They're taking me somewhere safe.""Where are you?" Iskander asks again, his voice insistent. "I need to know where you are."I take a deep breath and tell him the location. I can hear him let out a sigh of relief. "I'm on my way," he says. "Just hold on."I nod, even though he can't see me. I'm just relieved that both of them were fine.The Soldiers guard me and Austin to their Barracks. They leave me with guards and a female soldier who attends to me. I could tell Austin was hungry. “Please Ma, can I get a spot to breastfeed my baby” I ask as Austin begins to whimper and stretch his arms towards my chest.“Surely there is, follow me,” she said with a smile. She walked me into a room that seemed like a dormitory. “You must be hungry, I'd get you something” she spoke with sympathy. “Oh no, it's fine I'm okay” I quickly replied not wanting to bother her. “You are a breastfeeding mother, I've been a mother too and if your

My heart suddenly went cold as tears streamed through my eyes. I heard Iskanders Car explode over the phone. For some reason, my eardrums seemed to be functioning. I looked down at Austin, whose blanket was adjusted for him to breathe. My son seemed to understand the situation as he didn't try to play or grab anything. He just fell asleep. I wanted to break down and curse out loud, why me? Why do I always have to be on the run?Suddenly I spot five cars from the side window. I needed no soothsayer, to let me know they were after me. My engine roared as I increased my speed and sped off, taking off one arm regularly to secure Austin.The trees and houses by the road almost felt like I was in the car race which I played as a kid. The wind was whizzing by as I raced down the road. I could feel my heart pounding in my chest, my breath coming in gasps. I've never driven so fast in my life, but I know I have to get away from the men who are after me. I can see them in the rearview mirror,

The chef chuckled “You have such a bubbly kid, try this one” she said handing me another. It was awesome when it melted in my mouth, It wasn't ice cream but it was awesome. Iskander and the babysitter shook their heads in satisfaction. “Thank you so much for this” Iskander said as we rounded up and our stomachs filled to the brim.Austin had a swell time as he slowly fell asleep. “I'll see you all tomorrow, do have a good night's rest,” Iskander said as he left for his room. “Madam, should I take him for a bath” The babysitter asked as she tried to carry Austin. “No, don't worry I want to be with him, I'd bathe him myself” I replied as I waved her to her room.Bathing Austin was easy, he was barely awake except when the water touched his skin and he quickly slept off from there.I took my bathe and secured Austin with a pillow, kissing his forehead before my head hit the bed.Sarah strutted about the mansion “Why are these men finding it difficult to pick up a call !” she yelled to th

“My son is a clingy young man, moreover the baby supplies here are a bit harsh on his skin. We'd have to get new ones tomorrow”. I replied. “Aww, so that's what he was trying to tell us,” the babysitter said moving closer to him and rubbing his cheeks. Austin chuckled like one who was not about to bring down the roof with his wailing a few hours earlier. Iskander yawned loudly, Austin seemed to watch him as he even chuckled more. “Now you are laughing at me?” Iskander asked as he dragged his foot. Austin seemed to be In good spirits for the evening as he kept smiling and wouldn't let anyone, not even the babysitter touch him.“Guess what guys,” Iskander asked grinning. “You got a secret phone for Austin?” The babysitter responded. “Haha, that will be crazy,” I said laughing. Iskander looked stunned “That's some guess,” he said “but it's not correct” he added. “Fill us in already, I'm bored,” I said. “You can't be bored In Hawaii,” Iskander said. “Yeah I thought so until the stranges

The boy looked at them nervously. "What do you want?" he asked."We're looking for information," the other henchman said. "We're willing to pay for it." He pulled out a wad of cash from his pocket and held it out. "We need to know the room number of one of the guests." The bellboy's eyes widened at the sight of the money, he gasped as He glanced around, checking around to see if anyone was in sight. Then he took the cash and shoved it into his pocket. "What's the room number?" he asked, his voice low.“That's the information we need, we have the picture of the person” one of the henchmen replied. The boy's expression turned sour. "I don't know if I can do this," he said, looking confused. "I could get into huge trouble."But then the money was too much and way beyond his yearly salary he thought and he agreed to help. He led them to a secluded part of the hotel, where they planned on how to receive the information.Felicity's pov Back in the hotel room, I got hungry and quickly orde
