COME BACK TO ME...Jason's POV ❤️I couldn't sleep well the previous night because of what I said to Bianca.What was I thinking? Lying to her like that?I was panicking like crazy right now. What do I do?Oh no! Why did I have to lie to her?I had a dream last night; no, it was a nightmare. I had a nightmare that Bianca found out I lied to her and she broke up with me and because of that, I couldn't sleep.I couldn't let that happen.I have to come up with a plan and fast."Good morning, babe." She called out to me.I didn't know when she woke up. I turned my head to look at her and she was smiling broadly.Well...at least one of us had a good night rest."Good morning to you too." I responded and gave her a mild kiss on her forehead and she giggled softly."Going to work today?" She asked me while getting off from bed."No, I want to work on the t-shirt." I responded to her with a smile.I could see the tears gathering up in her eyes. She was about to cry again.She shouldn't do thi
THE PROTEST Jason's POV ❤️I made a print of 30 tee shirts and about one hundred fliers to go round. I had already come up with a plan and that was to pay people to protest.They were all gathered round after they heard me saying I was going to pay them.What people do for money."Okay, so line up. I'll only be picking 30 people." I announced and they all rushed to form a queue.A lot of people went home after the 30 people I needed were completed.All these people out here just because of money? But none of them showed up when I wasn't offering money."Okay everyone. Thank you so much for taking part in something like this, I really appreciate all of you. As we all know, Green Co is planning to cut down the forest but we are not going to allow that. So please, put down your names and phone number in this notebook so I can reach out to you." I told them."Sorry? When will we be getting our money?" Someone from the back of the line spoke."You will all get your money right after the
WHAT HAPPENED LAST NIGHT?...Jason's POV ❤️He exuded an intimidating aura as he approached. Despite being a fellow man, I couldn't help but feel intimidated by him. His eyes remained fixed on Bianca as he carefully made his way toward her.Finally standing in front of her, he closed the gap, leaving only a meter of distance between them. I couldn't fathom why Bianca seemed so calm in this situation. Her glare held intense malice, clearly indicating her deep hatred for him.Yes, she must truly despise him and have already resolved to save the forest and take down Charles Bandra, if possible. I was relieved that she wasn't intimidated and remained resolute in her cause. The least I could do was stay calm and vigilant.Two of his bodyguards came to each of his sides and stood there. Maybe they sensed Bianca as a threat. They were both heftily build and even intimidating as their boss, I was beginning to panic again. Was Bianca going to be alright?"How much do you want?" He announced a
SECOND CHANCE?...Bianca's POV ❤️I scoffed upon seeing his text. What does he want from me? Why was he acting like he cared about me when he doesn't at all?I saw him have sex with another woman when we haven't even broken up at all. He is a liar, a cheat and a fraud."What do you want from me?" I texted him, replying to his text.My phone showed three dots, he was typing back. I wasn't in the mood for this. I just finished giving a blow job and hand job to my boss and he loved it. I still haven't gotten over how I felt at bliss about pleasing him to his satisfaction, I couldn't let Jason ruin how I was feeling."Babe, I'm so sorry for everything I said and did. I didn't mean it. It was a big mistake." He typed and added a crying emoji to his text.Everything? He left me alone in the middle of nowhere. He accused me of being at fault. He paid people to protest with me. My self confidence, my pride, everything that I stood for was seen as a joke. I was disrespected by total stranger
YOU'RE NOT THE BOSS OF ME Bianca's POV ❤️Kumiko and I spoke on length that I forgot about meeting up with Jason. It was so fun having someone to talk to after everything that had happened. I wished she was here with me, but I didn't want her to face even a bit of what I was facing. I missed her so much.She kept on lamenting about how Charles was a psycho and it really cracked me up. She must really despise him."So, you said he strangled her. Aren't they like dating?" She asked. I was also curious too. Were they dating or not? He didn't act like they were but she was definitely head over heels in love with him. Wasn't she ashamed? He didn't even bat her an eyelid, it was so obvious he didn't feel the same way for her. I was very sure he despised her guts cause who on earth attempts to kill the person he is dating or in love with? No one. Kumiko was right, he was definitely a psychopath."Beats me! I seriously don't know, I'm as confused as you are. All I know is, you don't treat y
HEARTBREAK ANNIVERSARY Bianca's POV ❤️I was completely lost in my thoughts that I had almost forgotten about Jason again.He hurriedly ran to where I was and hugged me. His face was lit up, he must be really excited to see me."Won't you come in?" He asked me, dragging me towards the direction of his door and smiling throughout. He was really cute.I yanked my hands away from his and kept some distance between us."No need for that, you can say what you want to say right here." I uttered.He looked at me in disbelief and went ahead to speak."I know you're mad at me for what I did and I'm so sorry. It's just that... I won't lie to you Bianca, I'm confused. I woke up the next morning and couldn't find you. What is wrong?" He said, looking confused.Was he serious right now? He was trying to act clueless. Didn't he know what he did to me?"Let me go straight to the point, it's over between us!" I muttered under my breath.I didn't know what I was saying. Did I truly want to break up w
WHATEVER IT TAKESJane's POV ❤️The look in his eyes showed how disgusted he was by my behavior. I shouldn't have brought her up, I shouldn't have said anything about her to him. It was mere luck that I found him after all those years, and he actually spoke to me and even accepted to have a drink with me.I got so excited and ahead of myself. I couldn't hide the excitement and the fact that I finally saw him. I missed him, I missed his smile, his kisses and his hot sex. I missed everything about him. I don't know why I even broke up with him, he was perfect."Ma'am! Here is your coffee." The cute red-haired barista behind the counter jolted me back to reality and away from my thoughts. I stared at her, looking confused. I had totally forgotten I ordered coffee. She smiled at me, looking so impatient and repeated the words she said to me earlier."Here is your coffee, ma'am." She said with a smile.She must be really infuriated by me, but she was trained well not to be rude to custome
DRUNK IN LOVEJane's POV ❤️He looked disturbed also in his sleep as he kept on murmuring something. Was everything okay with him? The fight he had with Bianca must have been quite serious. I had to get him home fast.He called me to have a drink with him, that meant that he was all alone and Bianca wasn't with him, this was certainly the time to strike.I remembered where he lived, and I drove him to his apartment. Luckily for me, he still lived there. I got him out of the car, careful enough not to wake the slumbering figure that was passed out in the passenger seat of the car.My phone rang. Still holding Jason by his waist and supporting him, I picked the call and it was Bob calling me. What does he want? "What?" My tone was ferocious as Bob's voice filled my ear, and I was careful enough not to wake Jason up."Relax, no need to bite my head off." Bob mocked me. "Your car is still here, when are you going to come back to get it? We are about to close." He said.Oh no! I totally f
THE BEGINNING OF THE END Bianca's POV ❤️ The door burst open, and a rush of cold air swept into the room, making me tense up and press my face against Charles’s chest, and I could perceive the subtle scent of his cologne, a familiar mix of cedar and vanilla. My heart raced— part fear that Axel might have come back to end it all, part embarrassment at being caught in the middle of the both of us making out. Charles’s chest was warm against my cheek, and his steady breathing calmed me as he held me close, his fingers running gently through my hair. “It’s okay, B. It’s just Mr. Tusch,” he whispered, his voice calm but with an edge of worry. I lifted my head slowly and glanced at the doorway. Mr. Tusch stood there, looking pale and anxious, sweat dotting his forehead. I exhaled a deep breath I didn't know I was holding, the tension in my body easing just a bit, though I still felt the heat of embarrassment on my face. "Master Charles," Mr. Tusch said, sounding nervous. "I’m sorry t
SHADOWS OF THE PAST CHARLES' POV ❤️ I had an idea where Axel might be holed up. A gnawing instinct told me he was there, lurking like a shadow waiting for my arrival. Of course, it made perfect sense. Axel was smart— very smart, and cruel enough to know the emotional chess game he was playing. He was good at playing these mind games. Even if he didn’t know we were already on our way, that house would be the first place he would go. The car hummed as it glided over the uneven road, and I could hear the faint purr of the tires against gravel. My chest felt tight, and I wiped my sweaty palms on my pants. I swallowed hard, my throat dry despite the dampness on my palms. Axel’s game wasn’t just about hurting me physically; no, he wanted to break me from the inside out. Slowly, deliberately. Bit by bit. From Audrey to Bianca, to Mom, and now this—the house. The place that started everything. A place that brought back memories I tried hard to forget, memories I had fought so hard to b
THE CALM BEFORE THE RECKONINGCHARLES' POV ❤️It has been two days since my mother passed away—in this case, murdered by her own son.Zac is doing everything in his power to keep this incident under wraps, preventing the media from blowing it up, and whatever he’s been doing has been working. But I say it’s only a matter of time before they find out.The police have started their investigation, but they aren’t anywhere close to finding out who the killer is. They went back to the venue where the party took place, but the CCTV footage had been wiped out. They said the perpetrator must have planned everything all along and that they were going to find out who it was. But the truth is, they’re never going to figure it out.How didn’t I think of this? How didn’t I know this was going to happen? I had been so focused on him hurting Bianca that Mom didn’t even cross my mind. Well, she did a little, but how could he have thought to hurt Mom? Our mother?Axel has been planning this for a long
THE FALL OF A DESPERATE LOVER IN DESPAIRJason's POV ❤️This dude was out of his freaking mind. He just murdered his mother and he laughs about it? He doesn't feel remorseful and doesn't even have a little bit of guilt. Instead, he is feeling proud of himself."That OLD HAG deserved it. She would call me her son meanwhile, she knew I wasn't. And what was with that dying message at the end? I forgive you? She forgives me? I should be the one doing the forgiving, it should be ME!" He yelled and then went ahead and cackled. "This is insane, you are insane..." I said."Awww, don't be like that lover boy." Axel teased.I scoffed. I have had enough with these people."I am done. I am out of here." I said.I turned towards the exit and two of his goons blocked my path. I knew this was going to happen, I knew he wasn't going to let me go that easily."Now I can't have you do that, Jason," he paused, and then pointed at Jane... "Jane here told me that my dear brother saw you while you were tr
TEARS THAT FLOWS DOWN LIKE RIVERCharles' POV ❤️After leaving the hospital building, Bianca hopped into the driver's side of my car and offered to drive the both of us back to my place. It was the first time seeing her behind the wheel of a car, and she looked absolutely breathtaking and cute while driving my car with the utmost care and treating it like a precious new born baby. I couldn't muster up the energy to compliment or tease her about it but deep down, I appreciated her presence as her expressions made me feel slightly better about my miserable self for not being able to save my mother. Zac and Kumiko were right behind us, trailing in their own car, and I couldn't help but wonder how they were feeling in that moment.The atmosphere inside was heavy with silence, sadness, and contemplation and every now and then, Bianca would steal glances at me, her eyes filled with concern as she tried to make sure I was holding up. I immediately got out of my car as soon as we got to my
A CHILD IS BORN AND A VOW TO PROTECT HIM.UNKNOWN POV ❤️28 years ago, at the hospital.CharlesShe had her new born baby swaddled around her arms as she looked at him with so much joy and love, and out of her eyes, were tears of joy. This was her second child, and it was a boy again but she didn't mind, he was a cute little baby boy.Her husband and love of her life stared at his son with loving eyes and cried tears of joy. "Mom?" Her first son called out."Yes darling?""Is this my brother?" He asked."Yes, dear. This is your brother, Axel.""He is so cute. I'm going to love him and cherish him forever.""Yes, Axel."Alice was so excited that she had two adorable sons, and that her eldest son was willing to protect his little brother."What name should we give him?" His dad asked."Hmmm. I didn't really think about this." Alice said as she turned to Axel and smiled. "What do you think, Axel? What name should we give your baby brother?" There was silence, as Axel thought hard about
THE DEAD, COLD AND LIFELESS BODY IN THE POOL OF BLOOD Charles' POV ❤️The whole place became bubbly after Axel gave his little speech and suddenly left for a room. I looked around for any suspicious activity or person but everything was good. Was I overthinking this? The waiter came and offered Bianca and I wine and the possibility of him actually being dangerous crossed my mind. I mean it happens in the movies. After minutes of contemplating whether to accept the drinks or not, I eventually did. He didn't look suspicious to me, but the probability of the drink being poisoned was very high. I sniffed the drink without making it look obvious, and checked for any residue of poison and when I was sure there was none, I drank it after checking the same with Bianca's drink. There was nothing suspicious going on. Was I wrong? Was I being paranoid? Zac and Kumiko joined us later and my attention was divided. I held Bianca so close to me as I watched her smile and laugh to Kumiko's jokes.
GUNSHOTS AND THE DEATH OF SOMEONE UNEXPECTED Jason's POV ❤️I couldn't sleep throughout the night as I was thinking of a way to stop this and when I couldn't come up with one, I slept off. It was morning before I knew it and I was exhausted as I didn't get enough sleep last night and Axel made sure Jane and I had breakfast before leaving. Axel was the one that drove this time and we didn't have blindfolds on."I'll go in first, and you guys go in through the back door. Wait for my command and do everything I tell you to. No messing around." He said as he handed over some airpods to the both of us."Here, put this on. I'll relay whatever message I have for you through those."I put on the airpod, and we drove in silence. I couldn't wait to see Bianca, even though I knew I wasn't going to get close to her, I would be more than glad to see her doing okay. We eventually got to the venue and did exactly as Axel said when we were in the car. Jane and I went through the back door and wait
NINE MORE HOURS UNTIL THE DEATH OF ONE CHARLES BANDRA Jason's POV ❤️"Now, let me brief you in on the plan. The plan is simple by the way, just shoot Charles and don't get fucking caught." "But... I have never shot anyone in my life." I said. The thought of it made me sick to my stomach, but there was no way out and like he said earlier, a life for a life. If I back off from this, not only will I loose my life, but these maniacs wouldn't hesitate to kill Bianca. And that wasn't going to solve the problem. If I die, Axel was just going to hire someone else to finish the job. Axel laughed, and his men laughed along with him."Neither have I, but it is quite simple. Just pull the trigger and your target is eliminated. Isn't that interesting?" Axel said.If he really wanted to kill his brother, why did he need me to do his dirty work for him? Why couldn't one of his men do it? Why did it have to be me? A complete stranger, someone he was just meeting for the first time. Does this mean
