Chapter 17Falling"Remove the swords," Gavin ordered Chef Martin as he took Luna out of the restaurant with all eyes on them. Misty's face could not be sketched. She was worried after seeing scream in pain. "What happened?" Clyde asked when he arrived at the restaurant and saw Gavin with Luna walking away. "I think she remembered some of her memories with the sword," Chef Martin could not take his eyes off the sword. He was somehow thinking what she did with the sword before that makes her remember a glimpse of her lost memories. "You heard him, remove the sword." Misty repeated to the men before they quickly brought the swords out of the restaurant. After seeing with her own eyes that they replaced the sword, she quickly followed Gavin and Luna. "Drink this," Gavin brought a glass of water while Luna was lying on her bed with her eyes glued to the ceiling of her room. She could not forget what she just remembered. It was a very short and vague memory. The sharp sword that is bei
Chapter 18Your wife "I'm falling…" she uttered. "I'm falling for you, Gavin."Her eyes were filled with sincerity. Luna was looking at him as if he's the only one she could see. His heart was pounding aloud and so fast again. Gavin can feel it while eyeing Luna in front of him. Her words flutter his heart. He was lost for words once again. Gavin has nothing to tell her. They promised to fall to each other and Luna was already falling. As for Gavin, is he falling for her? That is the question that he can't answer yet. Love is not for him. He never liked these things and he was so sure that what he felt for Luna was just a misunderstanding."Are you falling for me, Gavin?" Luna asked straightforwardly, cutting to the chase. He crumpled his hands. He became a stone who could not even move nor remove his eyes from her. All he knows is that his heart was drumming at that moment. "Gavin!" Clyde shouted a bit far from them. Gavin prevented Luna's eyes as he looked down to his feet befo
Chapter 19Caught"I'm your wife, Gavin…you must fall for me," she said firmly. His phone rang, which interrupted the two of them and broke the deafening silence between them. Both of them looked at his phone before Gavin eyed Luna once again. "I have to take this," he said and gave her a soft smile. Luna held his hand for a moment. The rings that they wear calms her heart beyond this situation they are in. "No problem," she replied and nodded with a smile. Gavin left her room for a moment as he had to take the call."Hello," "Sir Gavin, we found something." The man said. Gavin glanced at Luna inside her room where he left the door a bit opened. He quickly closed it and created more distance between them. "What is it?" He asked firmly. "This is not really big. But I found out that Agatha Gabriel had a fight with Amara Gabriel before her flight," the man delivered him the news that they dug. His brows crossed for a moment. "It's not huge, but who knows? Beyond her angelic face
Chapter 20 Typhoon"I…" she uttered, losing all her words. Luna pulled herself back to her senses and quickly moved her eyes away from him, or should we say, from his body. "The food is ready," she was preventing his eyes that remained at her. She turned her back and was ready to leave the room with embarrassment and awkwardness.Coming there was a mistake. She should have just waited for him to go downstairs! "Wait," Gavin said with his baritone voice. Her feet stopped in front of his door. Her heart was pounding so fast and her breathing suddenly became heavy as if she was holding it back. She gulped as she bit her lower lip. She looked like a stone who was standing there, could not even move. "Why are your cheeks burning?" He asked and heard his footsteps coming towards her. She crumpled her hands and became even more stone. "It's just hot!" She exclaimed with a bit of surprise when she turned around and saw Gavin standing in front of her, wearing those blank eyes. She buried
Chapter 21SleepLuna stayed beside Gavin, sitting on the cold floor in front of Gavin who was still holding her hand. She wanted to leave for a moment to get him a towel in cold water to lessen his fever. But hearing his soft voice asking her to stay stops her. And here she goes, watching him sleep. "You're really handsome," she muttered while staring at his face. She could not help but to wonder what his parents looked like. Does he take after his Mom or his Dad? When she made sure that Gavin was already sleeping, she slowly removed his hand at her and stood up. She took a deep breath and drew a small smile at Gavin before preparing the towel in the cold water. He has a fever and his body temperature is really hot so cold water will do. "Can you bring medicine here? And also a soup if possible?" Luna asked the maid outside the door in her very low voice. She even checked Gavin inside as she doesn't want to wake him up."Yes, Mam." The maid said and left immediately to obey her.
Chapter 22Holding back"They have to stop the search," Amethyst said to them in the living room after the call she took."What? They can't stop! I can't waste any time!" Rio exclaimed furiously. Agatha stood up and pushed him on his chest, wearing her cold eyes. She rarely turned like this. But this time, Rio filled her system with annoyance."Can you stop?" She asked blankly. "What do you think of our people who were searching the ocean for how many weeks? Robots? Aliens?" She smirked. "Your attitude won't help, Rio." Rio didn't speak. He kept his eyes at her, exchanging cold stares. His jaw clenched and has nothing to do anymore but to calm himself down. Amethyst's phone rang again, which broke the silent tension between Agatha and Rio. "Hello?" She answered as she shut her eyes with frustration."Good afternoon, this is the Police. We found some dead bodies here. You can go here to check if Ms. Amara Gabriel is one of them," the man said over the phone. Her lips parted immediate
Chapter 23Hate"Amara Gabriel hasn't been found yet?" Larisa uttered while watching the news with her husband, Gabe. He quickly put down the iPad that he was holding and turned his eyes on the television. "That's her fiancé," Gabe said. "I met him twice." Larisa's brows raised and nodded. Well, something's wrong with this. Her guts tells her that there is still a hidden story behind the plane crash. "That red haired girl is Amethyst Gabriel, her cousin." Estevan muttered as he arrived again in their house with his hands hiding in his pockets. "The wedding should have happened by now if she didn't go missing, right?" Larisa asked and looked at the two Clyborne that were with her. "Yeah. Everything's ready, I heard." Gabe said and came back scrolling on the iPad as he took a heavy breath. "Something feels wrong," Larisa mentioned. Both of their eyes went at her. Well, they know her. Her guts have never been wrong."What do you mean?" Estevan asked."I don't think that there was a
Chapter 24Behind the fightGavin was on his bed, drinking alcohol. His hands were crumpled like a paper while Luna's questions were pouring in his head. It's already evening and he hasn't been able to come out of his room anymore since he last encountered Luna downstairs. "Fvck," he cursed out loud as he threw the glass on the ground furiously. He even slammed his broad and tough chest with his heart aching like it was being torn inside. Luna has no idea how much he wanted to do what Misty told him to do. She has no idea about what she feels and how he hates himself for hurting her like that. But how is she supposed to understand him? She will only understand him if he reveals the truth. And he knows that he can't do that yet. "B*llsh*t!" He shouted angrily and started to punch the wall with his bare fist, ignoring the pain and the wound that it would leave. He was punching the wall as if it was a soft thing. The blood was already painted on his fist. But nothing hurts more about

Epilogue End of war“Until when are we going to stay here?” Amber asked weakly. They were all tired and hopeless. The darkness was locking them inside that unknown abandoned place. They could not even see their faces vividly in the extreme darkness. “Until they come,” Estevan replied. His head finally stopped from bleeding. “I will fvcking kill them,” Amethyst said firmly while they were all sitting on the floor. “I can't believe we were all caught,” Larisa uttered and smirked unbelievably. “I wonder if Gavin and Amara know that we are here,” Gabe mentioned.“Don't worry. I was able to call them before someone hit my head. Amara probably knew that they took me,” she explained and breathed with frustration. “This place was secured well. There's no hole where we can escape,” Agatha uttered. She has been trying to see beyond the darkness since earlier. “It seems like Rio and Cassandra vanished from our sight to plan this,” Gabe chuckled bitterly. “Someone's coming,” Amethyst said
Chapter 111Taken “Is he still not answering?” Estevan asked Amber. She has been trying to call Gabe since earlier when they went to Larisa's shop and saw the situation. But then, up until now, he didn't answer.“Yeah. I don't know what he's doing,” Amber said and shut her eyes emphatically. They were all in the hospital now as they brought Leo who almost died.“Fvcking hell,” Estevan swore. He wanted to hurt somebody so hard at that point.“Why is he not answering? His wife was kidnapped!” He took a deep sigh and began to walk relentlessly. He didn't know what to do anymore. He's the only one who's there among all the men.Two of them were missing. Amara's father and Larisa. “Think of it,” Amethyst mumbled while contemplating. “They took the most important person in Amara's life and they took the one that your clan treasures right now, which is Larisa because she's pregnant.” Amethyst explained, gathering her thoughts. “It happened to me during Larisa's war. I was attacked,” Amber
Chapter 110Missing “Hey, make sure that no one will come inside aside from the Gabriels and the Clybornes.” The man said as they switched to the others in front of the gate. His duty is already done and it's time for them to do their job. The men nodded at him immediately. But then, they were not even turning their backs when they both dropped on the floor, bleeding a lot. The two men were about to defend and find who shot the two when they were shot as well. There was no noise made as they used a silencer. In just a snap of fingers, they were all down, dead with a shot on their foreheads. “Hi, wife.” Amara's father said while he was eyeing the sky in front of his balcony. A huge smile couldn't be hidden from his face. He looks happier now. “Our princess, she's so happy.” Hjs voice almost broke as his eyes began to water. He began to look away as he took a deep breath. “I have nothing to ask for, hon. Amara is happy, and I know that Gavin will take care of her well even without
Chapter 109Getting even“Who's that?” Cassandra asked after hearing the man's voice on Rio's phone. The call was on the loudspeaker. Rio quickly ended the call as he faced Cassandra.“This is what you want right?” He asked and hid his hands inside his pockets.“To get even,” he added and appreciated the warm wind embracing their skins. “Are you telling me that you did something now?” Cassandra asked and went closer to him. Rio remained silent as he closed his eyes gently.“What did you do, Rio?” She asked again when Rio ignored her first question earlier.“Rio!” She exclaimed, which made him open his eyes. He took a deep sigh and faced Amara. “Why do you always ask, Cassandra? Can't you just keep your fvcking mouth shut?” His eyes were sharp and angry. Cassandra felt scared for a moment. She really doesn't know who he is anymore. “I have to know, Rio! Why are you not telling me your plan? I'm your girlfriend, Rio!” She was indeed throwing a fit over it.“Shut up,” Rio uttered firm
Chapter 108Honeymoon“Have you seen this?” Cassandra asked, still wearing a white wardrobe. She almost slammed the newspaper on the table, showing Rio the news all over the world. Rio was currently enjoying his coffee on the balcony when Cassandra suddenly disturbed him. His eyes slowly went on the newspaper and saw the news that they both didn't like. He remained calm as he looked away and came back looking at the sky. “What?” Cassandra chuckled unbelievably with annoyance from her eyes when Rio remained calm as if seeing that news was alright for him.“Gavin and Amara just got married again. They are fvcking enjoying while we are here, hidi—”“Didn't I tell you that we are not hiding?” He asked and glanced at him again. His eyes were blank and cold. “Then what are we going to do? Stay here? Wait for them to have a happily ever after?” Cassandra chuckled while shaking her head. She even combed her hair with her hands. “I'm fvcking tired of staying away from their shadows, Rio! W
Chapter 107SealedGavin and Amara didn't waste any time to make their wedding happen for the second time. The invitation was made immediately and sent to all their friends in the Mafia world. “You know what, we were the happiest when sir Gavin called us and invited us to your wedding again.” Misty mentioned while the woman was putting make-up on her beautiful and small face. Misty and Clyde both went home immediately as soon as they heard about the wedding. Everyone is excited, especially their clans. “I wasn't expecting Gavin to ask me to get married again,” she uttered with a broad smile on her face. “We didn't expect it either. I mean, the battle is not yet done.” She shrugged and kept her small smile. Rio and Cassandra were still in silence. Up until now, no one sees their shadows. “I don't know where they are. But for now, I want to forget about them and enjoy our wedding.” She said and took a deep sigh. Even though it's their second wedding, it still makes her feel excited
Chapter 106Marry againDays and weeks have passed right after the last news about the Blaze, especially Rio and Cassandra. After his father's death, they vanished like a bubble. Their clan remained silent, trying to establish a new business and start again. Rio and Cassandra were not seen and no one knows where they are, not even their own clans. Everyone was wondering where the two went. Did they vanish and run away from the war they started with Amara? Are they both done? Did they surrender? Where are they? What are they planning? Those are the questions that were playing in everyone's head. “Where do you think they are?” Estevan asked them while they were at Gavin and Amara's house. Gabe and Larisa were not there. Gavin’s house is their new place to gather. “No idea,” Amber replied and shrugged. “I was thinking about it too. After the funeral, I didn't hear anything from them. They are not even attacking me,” Amara uttered and took a deep sigh. “We can't let our guard down ye
Chapter 105No mercy “Have you seen the news?” Agatha asked Amethyst while she was busy driving. They were on their way to meet Amara and Gavin after the incident that happened to them again. “How can I see the news? I'm driving,” Amethyst replied and chuckled. “Rio's father took his own life,” she announced with her eyes surprised. “What?” Amethyst glanced at her immediately. She was distracted while driving because of that news. “It's all over the news now,” Agatha said. They were both in shock regarding the sudden news. “Amara must know,” Amethyst said, exactly when they arrived at their mansion. There were already a few cars parked inside. The Clybornes are probably here as well. “I was busy in the meeting when you called. My phone was silent,” Gabe explained to Larisa as she brought up what happened. “I was sleeping when you called me, Larisa.” Estevan quickly explained. Larisa was just glaring her eyes at the two of them. “That's enough. It already happened. Let's just b
