I yawn and look at the clock, I am exhausted by just doing nothing guess it's a pregnancy thing, I smiled and caress my belly a baby bump was already showing off. I leaned on the sofa and look at the magazine I was looking at, I glance at my journal and decided to reach for it.
I opened the journal and saw the folded paper that the anonymous person left, I didn't know who sent it and who made it there's nothing unusual happening, and the attacks are stopped but Corro didn't bring his guards down because he wants to make sure that everything is fine up to our wedding day at least.
I folded the letter back and put it back in my journal, I di

It's today, I heaved a sigh and smiled. I am now wearing the gown. I look at the mirror, the reflection of me wearing this finally, it's this day."Miss Roana, your veil," The dresser said, I nodded and stand there in front of the mirror as the dress puts the veil on the top of my head, clipped it at the tied hair. I saw the maid smiled with joy in their eyes, I am nervous but I am excited because finally, it's today."Are you ready soon-to-be Mrs. Roana Galvez?" The wedding coordinator said. I nodded my head and look at my reflection again in front of the mirror. Then the staff monitored the whole event, they said that I should get ready. Senyora Marideth arrived last night, I just wish that even if just my mother was the only one here, I hope that she could see me today in this wedding dress.I sigh and waited in the room, one of the staff knock on the door and the coordinator nodded s

What is it like on the outside? I sigh and watch the waves dance on the shores. I want to feel the warm water and the wind on my face while smiling at the sun."Mina," I look at Livv, he was smiling at me while carrying a tray of food. I smiled back and extend my hands to reach his. "I bought you a snack, how are you?" He asks when he reached my hand, squeezing it a little. I glance at my arms that were slightly swelling."I am fine, I guess?" I said, not sure of what to answer. He sat next to me and look at my arms he then placed the tray of snacks on the table. "Let me see," He said, I raise my arms a little so he can look at it.It's been a week when they found and rescued me from the incident, they said that I was abducted and was about to be sold to some gross old men and I can't remember what happened but I believe he tho something was odd.

I feel alive yet lost, I don't know what this means but I can say that it was something I didn't remember. I caress my belly, a stinging pain my heart was lingering inside, the shallow feeling of heart, broken pieces of memory once a part of me was lost I can't help but wonder what happened and who was the father but Livv said that it's possible I got molested and raped before the auction. "Mina, we need to hurry," Henry said, I turn my head to him I saw his head peaking on the dear fingers tapping the door frame. I just nodded and grab my bag that's in the bed. I sigh and wear my jacket. "Where are we going?" I asked him as we walk side by side, I look at the guards who are now following us, the maids carrying our bags. I r

I inhale the cold and comforting breeze, the cold air enveloping my body I stroke my arms with both of my hands while smiling. I heard footsteps approaching me followed by a large exaggerated sigh. "I see you like it," He said, I glance at him and smiled. I like it a lot because this was the place it all started, this is the place I said yes to him and we had our relationship a secret. "This is the place," I whispered and stare back at the sky and back at him. I turn my head facing him, with a smile plastered on my face. "I remember it all, this was the place where we promised," I said to him, I saw him grinned like a child and turn his head to me, a g

Livv and I, what we had was one of the best days I had in my entire life. He made me feel like I am special, needed to be treated right, giving me the love I didn't know I deserve but I know that the show must go on. Things were bound to happen, love was not enough. I had to do something, for Roana, for my mother and this is where it all began, the untold lies. "Don't touch her!" Livv, emphasizing each word the man's grip on my wrist tighten more as I winced in pain, feeling his nails dugs into my skin. I heard his father laugh. "Livv, son this imposter needs to be punished!" He said, as his gun motioned pointing me. I heard Livv angry voice filled the room, I sob harder. "I'll handle her! we agreed on this, if you want me to marry the daughter of Marcus leave Mina alone!" He said as his eyes darted to me, the man who was holding me was grinnin

They say if you can't fight the devil join him and they're right. I smiled sweetly at him, on my inside was disgusted by him, I thought he was the man I dreamed of, but turns out that this angel-looking face was a demon."What are you thinking?" He asks me, hugging me from behind I smiled at him not trying to making it fake. "Just things, you know-," I trailed off, I face him and ran my finger on his shoulder in a circular motion I can saw how he gritted his teeth, clenched jaw if I had known better and blind to what he was doing I'd be feeling butterflies in my stomach but no."Things about us, what could have happened if we only got married," I said, He held my waist tightly as his eyes flamed in desire, I bite my lips to make it more real. He swallowed hard, staring directly into my eyes."If we only got married back then, we would have a kid by now running around the house, probably five years old

I sighed as I watch the videos of poor souls, the children who were afraid and traumatized by their stupid doings. I closed my eyes as I can hear the children cry it's like my heart was clenched tightly. I opened my eyes and watch the video. "Henry," I called my cousin, he looks at me-- I know that expression he was sorry, even him can't take it. "Do it, what I told you I'm sure mama would know and support you deliver my message to her," I said and clenched my fist. He nodded and sigh. "What else?" He asks, I look at him with cold eyes and gritted my teeth. "We have to end this fast, free the children I'll keep Livv busy," I said to him, he nodded. I handed him the flash drive that contains Markov's illegal deeds since his father died, Livv became worst than his father and I can't imagine that I am once in love with him. It's all planned. I watch the news spread like wildfire, I want to laugh but I cont

I wrap my hand around the mug as I feel the warmth of the cup, the soothing type of warmth. I inhaled the aroma of the coffee, taking a small sip of the coffee from the cup."How was it?" I ask Henry, he taps his fingers on the table and glances at me. "He's gone, I can't find him," He said, I hummed and look at the monitor, the signal of his tracker just got lost from our vision, I carefully place the mug at the table and looks at the monitor Henry was looking.Something's not right.I thought, I then look again at the monitor there's a red dot blinking again, my brows furrowed as I look at the monitor.

"Moma!" I smiled when I saw her running towards me, I chuckled as I saw him stop panting and tired of running. It's been 6 years since I left home and live here peacefully, I still visit them often and do my responsibilities but I want my life here away from the crowd, the suffocating life of the city tires me. "Careful, Leira," I said when she was now running again towards me.I heard Isaac's voice behind me. "Leira, be careful!" I shake my head and laugh as Leira was now near us panting. "This girl is too energetic for her age," Isaac blurted out, I nodded and wipe Leira's sweats on her forehead and her back.

I can see the reflection of the moon on the water, the beautiful and fascinating light reflects on the shore. I raise my thumb, closing my one eyes as I aim it at the moon I smiled as I can see that they're right, everywhere you go the moon will never be bigger than your thumb. I shiver as I feel the cold breeze of night brushes off my skin, inhaling it as I rub myself, warming my arms the ease the coldness, breathing in and out, closing my eyes.After what happened I left everyone, no one knows where I was or where I would go. I caress my belly feeling the bump there-- weeks after I went here in Sta.

"Leave us alone," I ordered my men, I then removed the gloves on my hand as I stare at him-- helplessly lying on the ground, unable to move. I croaked my neck to the side as I scan his body his shirt was full of bloodstains from his wounds. I crinkled my nose as I can smell the dried blood and fresh blood from him."Livv Timothy Markovs," Saying his name out loud, I then reach for the dagger place on the suitcase above the table, playing it with my finger. "You had no idea, do you?" I asked, mocking and laugh a little as I look at the dagger in my hand."You have to be careful who to trust," I said, the side of his lips tugs upward as he laughs mocking my question, I look at him as he cough in blood, raise his gaze to me and look me directly in the eyes."Funny to say that you did trust me too- once, Mina," he said, coughing between every word. I raise my brow as I saw him struggling with his every word but m

"Hold him," I can hear the voices around me, I close my eyes as the blindfold was lifted off my face, trying to get used to the light I blink my eyes a few times and slowly opened it after. I saw the man who drags me far from Mina last week. I clearly remember how it happened, how she smiled at me when she stabs me, on how she furiously screamed in anger holding a gun-- she was gone, the Mina I once love-- I don't clearly remember how or what happened but all I know is I killed her child and lied to her and as Henry secretly protected all of them it was their plan--- I clenched my fist, as I tried to escape off this chain in my wrists. The man turned my chair to face the monitor I look around and see nothing but white walls and heavily tinted glass, and I was just there watching what was happening. "What's happening?" I asked, more li

I sigh as I look at the silk long gown I was wearing, it's not comfortable and I don't know why. I groaned annoyingly as I look at my reflection in the mirror, I heard my sister chuckled, I saw her reflection on the mirror looking lovely on her silk knee-length slit red gown. She shakes her head as she walks near me still smiling. "What?" I ask her, she smiled and brings both of her hands to my cheeks, caressing them while looking intently into my eyes. "I do adore you, Mina, and thank you for fighting for us," She sincerely said, I smiled and bring my hands to her shoulders stroking them gently and pat her back. "Of course, I would do that without blinking an eye I promise to keep you both safe," I whispered and hug her. I close my eyes as I remember everything, how I sacrificed things, made bad choices, and selfish decisions just to keep them safe. I sigh to avoid tearing up and ruin my makeup. I push her a little and smiled. "Now, we

I opened the door and saw him sitting there, his hands and feet are tied down in a built-in chair. I took the gun out of my holster and pulled the barrel of the gun before walking near him, He raises his head, he's guardless and defenseless with his eyes blindfolded.I walk near him and stop in front of him, I then removed the blindfold he blinks his eyes multiple times as he opened his mouth. "Where am I?" He asks me."Somewhere," I answered him. I then look at him intently croaking my neck to the side as I was staring at him. I just stood there not saying anything, a gun in my hand and him sitting in front of me not saying anything."You know, Livv," I trailed off, I then raise the gun looking at it while I ran my finger in its body I then look at him. "I used to love you, adore you," I added, "But after I learned everything that you've been doing behind my ba

"Mina, Darling," My Mom said, a tear escaped my eyes as I felt her warm embracing me. I close my eyes and hug her back. I opened my eyes and saw her-- The woman who once was Corro's wife, a bitter pang of emotion ripped into me as I look at her, we had the same face, from eyes to lips. I shrug the thought off and smiled a little at her. She slowly walks near us with tears in her eyes. I let go of our Mother as I waited for her to come near us."Mina," She whispered, a bitterness was gone off my thought once her gentle hand caress mine, I close my eyes and look at her, she then caress my cheeks with her either hand biting her lips trying to suppress a sob. "Roana, I'm sorry," I said, sobbing as I pulled her close into a hug."I'm sorry, forgive me," I whispered, stroking her back gently while crying on her shoulder, she hushes me and gently pats my back, comforting me. I push her back gently and look at her f

I close my eyes as I saw the report. I knew this would happen, how Mina? I swallowed hard as I open my eyes again staring at the piece of paper I was holding, I had a hint but didn't confront her for it. "Master," I heard my butler called me, I turn my head to him and look at him. I tried to calm myself down and sigh. "What?" I answered, he opens his palm and handed me the phone. "We already removed the tracker," He said, I look at his face seriously. He carefully places the phone on the table. "You can go now," I said, I stare at the phone and slouched on the sofa. I reach for the phone on the table and leaned back on the sofa. Papa was right, she will be the lead to my downfall, I expected it but damn this hurt and I can't seem to do something to her, not even an inch. Why Mina? why do you hate me that much? what makes you hate me that much? I sigh and leaned on the sofa, thinking wh
