I stood on my tiptoes against the railings, ready to take the plunge. My body was shaking from the anticipation, and suddenly nothing else mattered to me.

I wasn't even worrying about what could happen after I jumped. All that matters was taking this chance and letting go of all my fears. The air around me felt different as my heart raced and adrenaline surged through veins; it's almost as if time had stopped for just one moment before I erased the world with a single jump.

From that point onwards, it felt as if my body was no longer inhabited by my soul. I remained in the same position with my eyes closed, yet I could feel the energy radiating through each and every nerve cell in my body - it was like an alarm going off inside of me.

They say that when it's your time to go, memories come flooding back like a clip of a movie playing on fast forward. But in my case, that wasn't the experience at all.

    Everything happened too fast.One moment Adam was with me, his strong presence reassuring and calming my emotions as he spoke words of comfort. He told me that it was going to be alright, that he would always be there for me whenever I needed him. His words of reassurance were like a soothing balm for my troubled soul; I felt deeply connected to this man in ways I could never explain. Though I had known him for only a short time, the bond felt so strong and true.The next moment, Aiden is standing in front of me, gently stroking my cheek with his hand. I can feel the warmth radiating from his touch, and look up into his eyes that are full of genuine affection. Everything else seems to fade away, and all I can focus on is Aiden's face so close to mine. I'm filled with anticipation as he continues to caress my face, barely able to believe what's happening right now.“Leilani, what are you doing out here?”I couldn’t even utter a single word. I am still in a state of shock over the event

    Without warning, both of their eyes suddenly locked onto me.I felt a rush of nerves overwhelm me as I was put on the spot, but I managed to keep my composure. My heart raced and my palms began to sweat, as if it were almost instinctive for me to be ready for anything in that moment. Every muscle in my body tensed up, as though preparing for the worst.Aiden was staring me down as though I was a criminal who had done something terribly wrong. I didn't know what to say, so instead I simply called out his name and carefully took hold of the hem of his shirt in an attempt to get him to stop and go back indoors.“Go back to our room, Leilani.” Aiden spoke up, his voice low and menacing. He had an aura of danger surrounding him as he uttered each word, barely able to contain his rage. His expression was stony and unreadable, but the venom in his voice made it clear that he was beyond angry.But I couldn't. He had to come with me. As I turned towards Adam, his expression had changed from sh

    “S*ck me, darling. S*ck it hard.”He grabbed my hair and forced my head to move further down until the tip of him reached my throat. My eyes began to water, tears streaming down as I faced the fact that he was too much for me; pushing me beyond what I could withstand. Even still, I knew I had no choice but to take him in, and so with deep breaths, I fought against the sensation of suffocation and welcomed the overwhelming pleasure that followed in its wake. His immense size filled me up.“D*mn, you’re getting better. Now, swirl your tongue.”I closed my eyes and did exactly as he instructed. Surprisingly, I felt nothing while carrying out this action on him. Was it because I wasn't the direct recipient of pleasure from it? Or was it because I was content to see Aiden finding pleasure in what I was doing? Nevertheless, a warm feeling still lingered in the air, a feeling that made me want to stay close and continue on this with him. I could feel my heart swell with satisfaction, knowing

    I was rooted to my spot, unable to find words as I stared incredulously at them. It was such a surreal sight; something that made me grapple with confusion and disbelief. I could hardly comprehend what I had seen and heard. The moment felt like an eternity before reality finally set in, the truth becoming harder and harder to ignore. “A-aiden…” I wanted to stop them. I wanted to scream and demand that the woman stand down, but no words escaped me. All I could do was watch as Aiden painfully shared his excitement with her, a sight so heart-wrenching it left me speechless and still. My whole body trembled from the intensity of the situation, overwhelmed emotion pounding through my veins like a flood. Every part of me yearned to intervene, to make things right - yet with my mouth firmly shut any chance. “Oh, Brittany!” My legs suddenly felt like jelly as I heard him moan her name like he was in pure bliss. A tight knot formed in my throat, and I found myself unable to bear watching t

    Everything felt like it was happening in an instant. One second I stood there, exposed and vulnerable before Adam, and then the next I was cocooned safely within his embrace.His arms surrounding me felt like my only protection against the world. Afraid of what might come next and uncertain of where this passionate embrace would lead us, I allowed myself to be lost in that moment.All my worries melted away as he held me closer, the warmth radiating off him seeping into another dimension.I gulped nervously as I heard the people walking past his room, a place he had brought me to before I had realized what was happening. I expected him to release me the moment it was safe from onlookers, however that wasn't meant to be. Each passing minute seemed like a century and an eternity all at once, my heart thumping at an inconvenient pace.I slowly looked up, and there he was, his forehead pressed against the door as he took deep, steadying breaths. Beads of sweat had begun to form on his for

    "Are you still hesitant to return to the place in question?" He quizzed me when I stepped back into the living room, inquiring after I had finished changing.I nodded my head, still not ready to face Aiden. What he did left me feeling completely overwhelmed and with an ache in my chest that made it hard to breathe. I'm not sure why the thought of seeing him again was making me feel this way, but all I knew was that it wasn't right yet. It's been a struggle to keep everything under control; even just his name had started to sound like an unfamiliar language on my tongue“I-I can find another place to hide if you don’t want me here.”I almost had one foot out the door when something stopped me in my tracks. When I looked down, I saw Adam’s hands gripping onto my wrist. His fingers against mine felt like electricity, though it only lasted a few seconds. But in those few seconds, his touch sent warmth through every inch of me and left me stunned as to why he would do such a thing. We stay

    I hugged myself tightly as a flood of memories rushed back to me, an unending river of emotion that could not be quelled.“I can’t even dream of eating a healthy meal, most of the time I have to scavenge for something to eat from the dumpster. My bed is the cold hard floor; I am constantly exposed to mental, physical and spiritual abuse. It's like my whole life is filled with darkness - an endless cycle of pain that I cannot escape from. Even when trying to find reprieve in sleep at night, it's like a storm brewing inside me that won't rest until-”I hadn't even completed my thought before someone's hands found their way around my waist in an unexpected embrace. I felt a sudden warmth spread through me, radiating outwards from the point where their arms were connected to mine. But this feeling was quickly replaced with an uneasiness that came from being so completely wrapped up and vulnerable in someone else's arms without any warning. It caused me to tense up, uncertain of how to rea

    “She was sprinting down the hallway with nothing but a towel hastily draped around her body when, out of nowhere, she ran into me.”Silence.Adam sighed, “I invited her in-”“What is the reasoning behind your decision to take her yourself?” Aiden suddenly asked. “The other unit was right here.”His voice was stern and intimidating. I couldn't help but flinch when Aiden's gaze landed on me, his eyes showing me just how much he disapproved of what I had done. Somewhere inside me, my fear was waging a war with my guilt. I felt the tears welling up in my eyes threatening to overflow, so I bit down on my tongue to try and keep them back. All of sudden, Adam piped up and it startled both Aiden and myself.“Because she looks scared.” He said, gesturing to me “She has no clothes and she's shivering; I thought that maybe there was a reason behind her being here and if so, then I want to help her.”Aiden fell into a stunned silence; I could tell that he strongly disagreed with what Adam had sai

    Everyone was running around frantically trying their best to make sure everything would be ready in time for the upcoming event.I nervously bit my bottom lip as all of them were preoccupied with last minute tasks when suddenly, the make-up artist caught me off guard and started talking to me.“Madam, I need you to lift your gaze.”I took a deep breath, steeling myself before finally raising my eyes to meet those of the make up artist. She gestured for me to look higher, so I complied without hesitation. We had been at this for two hours already.Though I wouldn't say I'm complaining, my bottom is already becoming quite numb sitting in the same spot for such a long time. It's understandable that they have to do their jobs, but my need to stand up and move around has become ever more urgent.“It’s almost done, Madame.”I had nodded my head in agreement but the hair stylist gently restrained my head, keeping me still as she attended to every strand of my hair.I was not accustomed to be

    “Leilani! Where the hell are you going?!”I didn't give Aiden a second thought when his voice cracked with frustration as he called my name. Good thing the door beside me wasn't yet locked and I was able to hurl myself from the car, sprinting in the direction of Adam where I can save him!I can’t believe Aiden! Adam gave up everything for us, placing his life on the line selflessly in order to help us out of a difficult situation.And yet, Aiden isn't willing to do the same and put their differences aside in order to save another person's life. I understand that he hold a grudge against Adam, but surely this isn't an appropriate response?We are talking about someone's life here!I heard Aiden’s shouts echoing off behind me, ordering me to turn around and come back but I refused to do so.“Mother! Stop!”When I finally laid eyes on Adam and mother, it felt like time had stopped. I had to pause for a moment to catch my breath, and when I looked at mother her gaze seemed almost venomous

    It was too late.Everything came to a standstill in my mind, as if time had suddenly stopped moving and the clock had stopped ticking when I finally understood what was happening.My mother had pushed me far off of the cliff.My eyes widened, a feeling of helplessness consuming me as I stretched my arm out before me, despite knowing that there was no one who could rescue me from this situation. I felt my heart thumping so hard against my chest, memories of the events leading up to this moment all too vivid in my mind.A single tear escaped from my eye as I prayed under my breath. It was not at all what I had expected, this would end up being the way I would die. In my mind, I pictured myself alive and running away from my mother, starting a new life and living the kind of life that was meant for me - but it all turned out to be nothing more than another dream.Is this where it's all going to end?

    The cold air blew in like a wild animal, biting at my delicate skin and making me shiver.Despite this, I couldn’t take my eyes off of her face, we stood so close as if no distance could separate us from each other- neither space nor time. The cliff we were standing on overlooked the city below us, its lights glowing in darkness like thousands of distant stars that had found their way home to us.I've always been aware of the fact that my mother has never had a very high opinion of me. From the moment I was born, she seemed to have a contempt for me that grew over time. Not only was I constantly being criticized by her, but she would often blame me for things even when it wasn't my fault. It seemed like no matter how hard I tried or how much effort I put into pleasing her, she would always find something to be disappointed in.I was aware of this all along, but why did I get so hurt when I heard those words come out of her mouth? When I looked into her eyes, there was no sign of regre

    It was an icy night, the darkness so oppressive it felt like I could taste it.I had no idea where I was going but I knew one thing, whatever lay ahead of me had to be better than living in fear of the demons that continued to haunt my footsteps. As I ran, my breath foggy plumes visible against the moonlight, a single thought kept me going - freedom. Freedom from this nightmare that followed me wherever I went.“Leilani! You can’t live without me!”Her voice had an eerily chilling effect on me. I felt my entire body tense up, my spine becoming rigid with fear.Goosebumps rose on my skin and I trembled, feeling powerless in her presence. Refusing to turn around and face her, to risk seeing the knife she brandished threateningly in her hand, I valiantly did all that was in my power to keep my cowardice contained.I glance up from the sky, “I-i'm begging you, please help me find a way to escape from her. I need somewhere that is safe, where I can go and forget this nightmare that she has

    I felt a deep, primal anger bubbling up from within me as the word cursed spilled out of my mouth. My mind struggled to contend with what I had just heard, and my eyes widened in utter disbelief.I can’t f*cking believe that f*cker. I can hardly restrain my anger, feeling the urge to throw my phone across the room. But I take a few deep breaths, trying to calm myself down and think straight.I quickly dialed my assistant’s number to uncover what Adam was really doing. I had a suspicion he knew where Leilani was and that he was trying to keep her whereabouts hidden. I could feel my anger rising, a burning sensation in the pit of my stomach as it became more evident that something fishy was going on.“Sir Villarreal, how may I be of assistance to you today?”“I want you to locate Adam Hallowes! He needs to be located as soon as possible and explore every place and lead as quickly as you can! Once he has been tracked down, contact me immediately and let me know his whereabouts!”I ended

    “A-alicia, how could you?”I slowly shake my head in disbelief, studying her face for any hint of guilt or regret. It's hard to believe that someone as kind and gentle as her could be capable of such a thing…Alicia was speechless as she looked at me, unsure of what to do. Her eyes widened in fear and shock by my sudden presence. I slowly glanced down at the phone that she dropped on the floor, remembering everything that had been said during her conversation with Leilani’s mother.All of her words were clear in my mind…“How could you?”Taking a deep breath in, I slowly made my way towards her and grabbed her shoulders. As I gazed at her, she avoided my gaze and refused to look me in the eye. My heart started to race as my mind was filled with different questions.I don't want to give attention to these ideas, but the words were loud and clear enough for me to directly accuse her. It's difficult for me to accept this. This is an uncomfortable sensation - like tiny needles prodding at
