Darkness,
This is what I felt everywhere, every moment. Now, it doesn't matter anymore if I'm in front of bright sunlight or under the moonlight.
Intense sunlight has also become useless to intriguing my dead iris.
Unfortunately, I'm blind. I cannot see at all. For me, days and nights are equal. I'm living a wretched life. For all my needs, I depend on other members of the family. I cannot take care of myself.
I'm a burden on others. I cannot go anywhere without the help of my parents or ken. I'm deprived of all the joys and pleasures which come to us through our eyes. I can't go to the pictures. I cannot enjoy the scenes and sights of nature. There is no joy in my life anymore.
I have become s
"Deal," I said, getting up from my seat buttoning my suit and shaking my hand with the person who was smiling at me."Thank you so much Mr Rodriquize, it will be an owner to work with you," A man in his forties said.I smirked at his enthusiasm but yeah, it is a matter of over-excitement. After all, joining the Rodriquez group of the industry is not a joke.Today every corporation in the business world wanted to be a part of me. Who doesn't want to be in touch with the number one businessman?"I hope you know that I don't ignore mistakes, so be careful. This shall be your last project also" He said in his cold and stern voice draining the colour of other members' faces."We will give our best...my company and my s
Range filled into his eyes, he fisted hard. This boy has made a very big mistake today, and Brandon has sealed his fate the moment he thought to disrespect him. He took a furious step closer to him but suddenly his hand stopped hearing a voice. "Son, please tell me…where is my daughter?" He looked towards the person, who had her eyes filled with tears. She was looking so tired and was breathing heavily while crying. "Look at me…" Ken said angrily. Then he looked towards that boy again, who was giving him a hard glare that was nothing in front of him. He was trying to m

He made faces standing in front of the normal looking building of the area. It was no less than some slums to him.He took off his shades while climbing the stairs to the third floor where his love lives. He asked Fred to find out their address and within 2 hours, he got the address.After coming back from the hospital, he could not spend his single moment in peace. Her vulnerable condition, her tears kept on coming in front of his eyes.Every time when he closes his eyes, he sees her sitting in the middle of the road between the gunshots, crawling into her. The revelation made by her mother shook him completely from inside, for the first time in his life, his brain stopped working.The girl whom he has not ev
Her changing expressions were making him more conscious. He noticed her pale turning face and how she was trying to look normal to him."Are you fine, Mrs Brown?? I think I shouldn't have asked this to me, I'm sorry" He said to her with a concerned voice.She nodded slowly."This is not something good to remember. That one accident turned our lives completely" she said. She saw concern and worry on his face. But still, she has to act normal."She was crossing the road when a truck hit her and caused my daughter to lose her vision," she said."Ohhh…when this happened.." he asked, wanting to clear his confusion.
Ken wanted to say something but he stopped himself from seeing Claire from the door, she could easily hear them. He didn't want her to get upset at any cost. So, he controlled his anger and went inside Claire's room giving a hard look to Brandon."Mrs Brown, Claire got a little emotional that's why I'm sorry if you…" Brandon was saying but Lauren stopped him from understanding the situation."It's fine, I understand. Well, it's usual that she is open to you. She doesn't like to talk to strangers very much." Lauren told him."Okay then, I should leave now. " Saying that he came out of their house.He smiled in mind knowing he is not a normal stranger to Claire. At least she started to t
I have hope.They say Hope is to want an outcome that makes your life better in some way. It not only can help make a tough present situation more bearable but also can eventually improve our lives because envisioning a better future motivates you to take the steps to make it happen.Whether we think about it or not, hope is a part of everyone’s life. Everyone hopes for something. It’s an inherent part of being a human being. Hope helps us define what we want in our futures and is part of the self-narrative about our lives we all have running inside our minds.Even after losing her happiness, her normal life. Claire has that one hope of being happy again. She still wishes to feel that carefree, satisfaction and love. She still wishes to feel alive again. Maybe so
"How can you let her go with him alone, Mom," Ken asked his mother about Claire going out with Brandon that too alone. He is already very suspicious of Brandon, he is not understanding his extra sweet and caring, helpful behaviour towards them.They are not even of his status. He is a bloody rich businessman. What profit he will get from them."Ken, lower your voice. You are talking to your mother. " It was Mathew who scolded him for raising his voice in front of his mother. Ken and Claire have pampered children of their parents but they have their moral values too. They are not allowed to cross their limits.Ken regrets his behaviour. He is just very much worried for his sister. She has already suffered a lot. He doesn't want her to suffer anymore.
As we approached the house, I noticed that the fences around it had a lot of climbers with different colors of flowers hanging on every fence. The gate was changed to a big arch iron gate with a lot of alba together with rosa paul's Himalayan musk scramblers hanging on it. The combination of the white and pink colors of their flowers mixed with their heavenly scent were making the whole entrance look homey and welcoming. I thought I could see Brandon there as soon as we finally entered the house but he was nowhere to be found. Cross' mother welcomed me with a warm smile like the first time I came here.."Mr. Rodriguez instructed me to let you rest first" She informed me. We're currently in the room where Brandon and I occupied before. I wanted to protest and ask her more questions but she already left after telling me to rest before we eat lunch.I was about to sit on the bed when I noticed a note at the center of it. I gingerly took it and I felt so relieved when I read what's writt
Claire's pov "I want you...now" He whispered in my ear and teasingly bit it which sent an electric-like wave coarse through my whole body. He kissed me again like he couldn't get enough of me. Yes, we got back together again but we haven't been intimate because of his condition."B-But you're not totally healed yet" I answered when he finally let go of my lips.He smirked and to my surprise, he swiftly pulled me onto his lap. My breath went ragged when I felt his raging manhood poking through his mesh shorts. His hands landed on my butt and guided me to grind my center against his raging hard-on. I instantly felt the wetness between my legs as I complied and voluntarily moved my hips to continue grinding on him. He was so hard and it felt like he was about to burst any moment now. It's been so long since we last made love and I would be just a hypocrite if I wouldn't admit how much I wanted him right now. Just feeling his warmth like this is making me surrender to his touch.But th
Claire's pov A splash of ice cold water was thrown on me making my eyes fly open, a loud unpleasant gasp slipped from my lips. My head felt heavy, my muscles tense and sore. I blinked several times trying to open my eyes from the water that was irritating my eyes.I heard a dry and cruel chuckle when my ear suddenly worked and there was not an echo of a wired sound in my head. I peered my eyes open only to be met by darkness, a lamp hanging above me as it gave a small view of the room. A shiver ran through my body as my eyes gazed around the room.Suddenly the damp light became stronger and stronger until it revealed more of the room I was imprisoned in. I looked in horror at the stone cold four walls. There was no sign of one small window. The room was cold. Extremely cold, it made the shiver on my skin appear. My nose cringed at the horrible musty smell, it made me want to vomit."And our beautiful Claire is finally awake." A deep voice was heard from behind the shadows.My eyes ca
Claire's pov I grew up thinking that life should be lived in a certain way. I was taught like that. Love was defined for me. So were friendships. I was told that you should love only after settling down. And then how you should get married to the love of your life and live happily ever after. But I have lived long enough to realize that all that is bullshit. That’s not life. That’s just a user manual created by society. They define what’s right. They define what’s wrong. It’s all just about them and their forced guidelines on you. Honestly, I am sick of living as per their standards. I want to break free. And I have. I don’t decide right or wrong by their moral compass. I think for myself, and I do it. And I do it only when I feel like it, only when it makes me happy. I have just one reason to do anything in my life, happiness. If it makes me happy, I will do it no matter what. And if it does not make me happy, then do whatever the hell you want, but I won’t do it.Let’s talk about l
It's been almost a month since that horrific day and I still couldn't believe what happened. I never thought I would feel such kind of fear in my life. That time while they were reviving Brandon, I thought I was going to lose my sanity and didn't know what to do. Just thinking about losing him made me want to take my own life too.If it wasn't because of the support of Mrs Davis and my mother, I would've really lost it."Hey, what are you thinking?" I was pulled out of my reverie when I heard that voice. I looked at him and I still couldn't believe that we're together again. Thankfully, he survived and now, we're here at the penthouse again; happily living together. I looked at him. He's still using a crutch but at least, he's almost healed completely. The bandage on his head has been removed too. He still has some visible scratches and all but at least he's out of the hospital now.His left foot was the only part of him that needed extra care because it was still not healed yet.He
Tears kept on falling from her eyes while sitting there silently. Oh god! Please save Brandon. I wouldn't be able to survive life without him…She kept on praying hard. Her hands were entwined together tightly. Her body trembling because of fear and worry for Brandon. "Don't worry, Claire. He is going to be fine.*?" She heard Mrs Davis say this to her. She bit her lower lip when a whimper escaped her lips."This..is my fault." "What are you saying??" "You don't understand …" she cried on her chest for she didn't know how long before she finally pulled herself together. "Are you sure you are okay?" Mrs Davis asked her as she stared at her belly."Don't get too emotional, Claire. Think about your baby. You know this is not good for you. You need to be strong." Her hands atomically went to her belly and caressed it."I'm sorry baby, That Mommy's like this." She cried. But then she quickly wiped the tears off.Branson was still inside. They didn't know how long they had been waiting f
Claire heard Fred's words and she ran towards her room while Fred was calling her from behind. She realized she had to be careful with her baby also, so she slowed down and walked to the room and saw the most dreadful scene in front of her eyes. Brandon was lying on the bed, his shirt was covered with blood, and so were his hands, some blood was still oozing out of his leg and a man was trying to tie a bandage, he had his eyes closed. Everyone was so scared right now, they have never seen their boss in this condition. With trembling condition, she entered the room but couldn't say anything. She was just standing there quietly looking at him, constantly. Soon Fred entered followed by a doctor, Mrs. Davis also came with Shira and she gasped to tears seeing his deathly condition. The doctor examined him, and he has been shot in 2 places, one is on the chest and the other on the leg. It was a regular thing to witness blood, guns and these fights for them, but Brandon always got out saf
Claire's heart stopped and she felt her life being shattered, but Antonio pulled her back before she could touch the ground. She felt a harsh pull and she sat on the couch, breathing heavily. Her eyes brimmed with tears, and she was looking pale. Her hand instantly went to her belly, feeling her baby to know that her baby is fine. Before she could recover from this shock, Antonio pulled out his gun and put it on her belly, grabbing her arm hard."What are you…" She winced in pain, he pulled her harshly. She was feeling so humiliated and disrespected. Brandon and his whole man group has always treated me with so much respect, this is so different and not acceptable for her."Did you like the teaser…of what I could do??"He asked her."If you said a single word….A fucking single word then I'm going to chop your brother in pieces and your this child too…."He hissed in anger to her. "I'm Brandon's wife, be in your limits…If he gets to know about it.." She was talking and they started to
"Claire agreed" As soon as words slipped from Grace's mouth, Antonio punched hard on the table and laughed evilly seeing his plan succeed. Now Brandon's most trusted person will betray him, and break his trust. That's going to be fun! "I can't wait to see her crying as I did, as my family did…" Grace said feeling anger and hatred in her heart for Claire. She was always a good friend to her, but because of Claire, her family was destroyed. Brandon kills her father and brother, and she is happily living her life with that criminal.No, with their plan Brandon and Claire both ruin each other, and that will be the perfect revenge for them.Grace knew that Antonio is an enemy of Brandon, by Jason. So she herself contacted Antonio to help her to take her revenge. She can't sit calmly knowing the murderer of her father and brother is living his life full of fun and enjoyment. So then made the whole plan to manipulate her against Brandon. They lied to her about the kidnapping of her family
