Lost 90: Was He Crying?
"I pity him. Now that Kade is here, I wonder what will become of him.""Sigh, indeed. Such a miserable guy.""What happened?" Walking, Jessica glanced at the two soldiers indifferently."Young Miss! I-It's nothing! We were talking nonsense.""Yes, yes, whatever happened to Mr Waters has got nothing to do with us."Jessica froze. What happened to Mason?The other soldier glared at his friend as if saying, 'Why did you say that!'"Where's he?""We... We don't know. Please, e-excuse us."The young soldiers lowered their heads. They were friends of Parker who had now become a part of Tyler's plan.Their sole purpose to be a part was: To unite the poor lovers.When they were out of Jessica's sight, Parker's friend turned to his partner; whispering, "You think this will work?""It happens in the book, though."

Lost 91: I Only Require Your Opinion
"Mas-""Don't look," He stopped her, his voice raspy, as he continued to hold her in his arms. "Let me hug you for some moments. I don't need anything more from you." Jessica Miller had never thought she would see Mason Waters of all people so dejected. A peaceful silence fell between them. After a while, she heard him speak softly, his chest vibrating with each word he told. "Have you truly decided you want to live with that person?" "Mmh." "Is this what your father wants?" "Yes.""Do you have the same thoughts as Major?"After a while, she responded, "...Yes.""What do you think about his face?""It's good.""More than mine?" Mason questioned, earning himself a pinch from Jessica Miller. Mason winced and Jessica stopped. "What about his brains? Is his intelligence comparable to mine?" "He's wise. Stop comparing yourself with him. Both are different." Jessica coldly told him. "Okay, hear me out. It's the last question." "Then do you like him?" This time, Jessica did not a
Lost 92: Challenge Kayden To a Duel
Mason yawned like a cat.Yesterday, he got the best sleep of his life. Surrounded by the scent of his Queen. It was as if she were beside him.Smiling to himself, he opened his orbs only to meet a pair of violet-blue eyes watching him. He was a little appalled."J-Jess! Is this a dream?" Did she stay with him the whole night?Jessica rolled her eyes and was about to insert a thermometer into his mouth.Noticing it, Mason coughed."What?" Jessica gave him a look."It's just...you are already acting like a wife, so I'm feeling embarrassed." To make his words appear more affected, he covered his face, hiding it in his hands."..."Apathetic, Jessica started to get up."W-Wait! I'm sick. At least take care of me until I leave this place." Mason's puppy eyes did not work one bit on Jessica Miller.Instead, she loured at him.Mason began to gasp for breath, loudly coughing to get Jessica's attention.As expected. Jessica's eyes widened as she clutched him with panic. "Are you alright?""Are
Lost 93: Mason's Victory
By the afternoon, all the soldiers in the Army camp, be it the young ones who were there for training or the veterans who were called to train those soldiers, learned about the duel. The news escalated swiftly like wildfire. The people who favoured Mason were worried for him like hell. But the main man did not fear one bit. Rather, he was happily humming, writing something on his screen. "I have brought practice equipment." "Don't you want to train?" "Why should I?" Mason did not look up from the screen. "You're going to fight with him in some hours, yet why are you so calm, Mr Mason!? It's Kade you'll be fighting with!" "Hush, I'm talking with my Queen." Mason waved his hand in dismissal. He was not the least bit nervous. But what got him riled up was when Jessica refused to see him. She was not even responding to his messages. He assumed she was angry at him. After what happened last time, she warned him to not come to her room again. He was not joking earlier. He and his
Lost 94: 2nd Wedding Anniversary
2 Years Later: "Young Madam, all preparations have been carried out. Anything else that you require?" Zaria, who was watering the vibrant coloured flowers, stopped and turned around. Noticing Butler Sebastian, a smile took over her. So much had changed in these two years. Both Zaria and Butler Sebastian got to know each other and went along well. Butler Sebastian assisted her in many things which helped her become a perfect madam of the family. Sasha had begun to treat everyone softly. Although, sometimes she did lose control. The manor was peaceful and tranquil most of the time. Her relationship with her husband had become better and now they did not feel reluctant around each other. The Old Anderson couple would also visit them once a year and would return happily after seeing their children were happy. Her feelings had also somewhat become stabilised. "Nothing else other than him." "It's our second anniversary. He'll be on time, right?" "Young Madam..." Sebastian started h
Lost 95: Someone From The Past
The dinner ended in silence. Zaria waited for Elian to say something or start a conversation, but he did not. He seemed distracted. The atmosphere was romantic and dreamlike yet the tension and nervousness somehow kept coming in. Under the table, Zaria clenched her fists apprehensively. "Elian, I need to talk to you." Elian was brought back to reality as he sensed Ria's gaze on him. Blinking, he cleared his throat, "I have been meaning to tell you something for quite a while as well. I can only let this out today now that I have got the chance." Zaria's heartbeat accelerated. Was he too- She gratefully thanked her ancestors and the heavens for this moment. With a shy look, she shook her head, her voice soft and she gazed down. "You can speak first. I can wait." "Are you sure?" Elian asked seriously. "Mmh." After all, whether she said it or he said it, it was the same. Sighing, Elian made eye contact with Zaria. He was holding this girl for a long time knowing that she could h
Lost 96: Am I The Only Woman In Your Life?
"Good grief!" The next morning when Butler Sebastian saw Zaria, he was flabbergasted. "What happened to you, Young Madam?" "Uncle Sebastian..." Zaria Smith could not get a single wink last night. The moment she would shut her eyes, she would see Elian together with that woman. She had black bags under her eyes and slightly puffed cheeks, giving a great impression of a panda. The torment she and her soul went through was intolerable. None of her friends was here. Who should she confide in? Past, he said. Was she truly just a past? Then why did he keep her here? Butler Sebastian was concerned. Was the task not successful? Since he could not get a word out from Zaria, he sighed. "Young Madam, have something first and then resolve the matter." "Resolve the matter? Will he let us do it?" Zaria muttered, a bitter face forming. "Yes?" "Oh, nothing." As she proceeded to go to the kitchen, she heard some maids speaking. "That guest staying in the room opposite the hallway, isn't she
Lost 97: He Will Leave Me
'I will finally talk to him! I can't tolerate her presence anymore. Humph, if she has no recollection of 2 years ago, she better make new memories if she can't recover the old ones.' Zaria was thinking when she stilled and watched the scene unfolding. "Elian, you're back!" Christina leapt into Elian's arms happily. "Mmh." "When are you planning to bring your friends here, Elian? I haven't seen them for a long time and I want to meet them." Zaria was in disbelief. This Christina had met them, but Zaria.. Elian had never introduced his friends to her. Not even a simple description of how they might have looked like. He always had dinner outside the house when he visited his friends. "They are busy nowadays," Elian answered and tried to separate himself from Christina but she would not budge. "Well, forget them. Do you feel the difference here?" "..." "Ugh, look around! I have changed everything." Only after that, Elian's dark eyes went to every corner. "The previous setting w
