“You need to get some fresh air. You can’t just stay in your room like a house rat.” I said, trying to persuade Lance to go outside.

“I’m fine. I don’t need to go outside. My room is comfortable, and enough fresh air is passing through, so please leave.” He said stubbornly.

“You can’t just stay in your room without coming out.”

“Actually I can and I will. You’re not my mother Kendall. Not even my mother can tell me what to do. As you can see, it has been almost a month since I nearly died and she hasn’t even called” He clenched his jaw and lowered his head. “Just leave Kendall. Please. Just leave”

“No. You’re going outside. Even if I have to fight you” He chuckled and looked up at me.

“You think you can fight me?” I nod my head confidently. “You seem to forget you can’t walk” his facial expression became serious. I let out a laugh. “You think it’s funny?

“Yup! Very funny. You look so helpless …. Well, you are helpless”

    Few Week Later Lance I jumped out of my sleep. My body was drenched in sweat, and I was shaking like a leaf. I wiped my face with my hand, and took a deep breath. These nightmares are killing me. Every night I close my eyes I see that man standing over me with the gun in his hands, then he pulls the trigger, and when I wake up, I feel like I’m still waiting to wake up from another nightmare. I can’t get it out of my head. I need a drink. That would help, but Kendall refuses to give me my vodka, or at least whiskey. Something to get my mind off all this. She claims medications and alcohol doesn’t go well together, but I doubt she knows what she’s talking about. There’s no use even arguing with her, she’s the most stubborn person, other than myself, that I’ve ever met. Although I don’t admit it to her, I’m more than grateful that she took the time out to help me despite everything I have done. I can’t bring myself to thank her to her face. I want to, but it’s so hard. How do I tell he

    Unknown I paced the room with my fist tightly clenched. I’m losing my mind! Kendall is causing me to lose my mind! Why does she have to be so damn sexy, and I can’t even get her! I should just kidnap her and hold her hostage. She knows well that I love her, more than Lance ever will. Yet she fails to see that. How can she be so blind when everything is right in front of her. Lance doesn’t deserve such a good woman. I would have treated her like a Queen. Make her happy always. I stopped and looked at the monitor screen. There she was massaging his shoulder like he’s a King. She should be doing that to me. Her hands should be all over my body. Her tongue over my abs. Her breast in my mouth, running her pussy on the back of my tongue. I bite my lips. I love her. I love her so much. I could feel my dick getting hard. The things I would do to that ass. I have to get her. Lance Only God knows how many times I opened my mouth to insult Kendall, but then I remembered I was supposed to be n

    LanceMy heart was racing.My shoulders were tense.I inhaled, then exhaled. Inhaled again, then exhaled.I adjusted my tie, then dug my hands in my pocket. I am finally able to step outside without Kendall pushing me around in a wheelchair. I could go for a run, workout, have sex, and be free. Lance Kyle Russo is back and ready to take on the world! But I'm afraid. What if they try to target me again? Still, there was nothing on the person that tried to kill me. I haven't even heard back from the detectives, and I refused to call him. Maybe they are right when they say it might be someone close to me. But who? All I have is continuous nightmares. I must watch my back now more than ever. "Be strong Lance. Everything is going to be just fine" I coax myself.There was a soft knock on the door. I knew immediately that it was Kendall."Come in," I say in a cheery tone. I plastered a fake smile on my face.

    KendallI winced as I cut my hand against the sharp edge of the knife. Blood oozed out. I cursed under my breath and placed my finger under the running tap. My thoughts were far off. I had dinner with Lance, and I honestly have no idea how it was about to go down. We've been out together in public less than ten times ... and it wasn't for dinner. He always told me exactly what to wear to make him look good. But not today. I've been on very few dates before. Four to be exact ... and I easily picked whether I should wear a cute dress, pants, skirt ... but now I wasn't sure. I'm hell-bent on making him look good. I don't want to show up in a dress that is too short, or tall, too tight, or too loose. I wanted it to be perfect. We might just be at the stage of having a great relationship, and I don't want to mess that up. I need everything to be perfect. Maybe I should just wear a nice pants suit. I laughed to myself.After he begins to trust me, I will ask him for a job, so I can begin mak

    LanceIt was a long drive. Very long, and exhausting, and Kendall just wouldn't keep her mouth shut. It was like it was on a racetrack running a 1000-meter race. My ears begged me to shut her up, but I decided to be nice to her, so I said nothing. I just made her run her mouth continuously.''They are just so perfect Lance. They are strongly built with a sexy walk. That walk beats out every super model. Female that is.""If that's what you think, I guess I can't argue with that ... with you, but I'm never one to watch the way horses walk. It's not my thing. Maybe that's yours." She showed me the finger and kept talking."When I was younger, my favorite book was Chestnut hill! Well, not my favorite of all time, that was definitely Nancy Drew.""Fuck Nancy Drew!" I didn't notice that I said that out loud until she slapped my arm and frowned."Nancy Drew will forever be the best mystery book, hands down. It is iconic""Hmmm ... okay crazy lady. But I just think Hardy boys are much better.

    KendallI laughed to myself as I watched Lance glance at his wristwatch every fifteen minutes and roll his eyes. Shopping with him for clothes was way more fun than I thought it would be. He wasn't fun of course but staying long to annoy him was. He wasn't going to let me shop alone because he believed I would get lost or something bad would happen like I am a two-year-old. I just think he thinks I would run off with his black card, and Audi R8. Like I am that stupid. If I wanted to rob him, I would not steal things that can be tracked easily.Moreover, I would just kill him. I have watched how to get away with murder many times.I swirled around in the green skater dress and yellow heels."You like It?" I asked. He scoffed. "It makes you look like one of them bitches that climbs a pole.Rude motherfu-"And what's wrong with that? What's wrong with strippers?" I crossed my arms and put one leg forward."Nothing."

    Lance"Oh my God!" Kendall exhaled heavily and gripped on to the horse reins. Her body shook like a naked person lying in the snow. "I'm going to die Lance." I stayed calm despite her unnecessary antics. I can never understand how she has the power to act so extra sometimes. I placed my hands on her hips and whispered in her ear."Keep calm. He can sense your fear. Slow and steady breathing sweetheart." I used my thumb to caress her side. She continued inhaling ... then exhaling, slowly. "Just like that." I whispered. Soon enough, she became calm, and more confident."I can do this now!" "You sure?" I asked.She nodded. "Positive"I hopped off and made sure she was comfortable, then I held on to the horse's griddle and led it out of the stable."Can't you make him run off, like those horse races on tv?""Sweetheart, this is not Tv, you're a very timid person. You're not ready for that. We'll start off slow, okay? Just until you're really comfortable, then I'll slap the horse and make h

  • MARRYING A RUTHLESS BEAST    FINALE

    Today, every step that I make as I walk along the corridor of the hospital feels heavy. I just made a phone call to somewhere far away. Somewhere I will be. Soon. It has been three days after I received the first phone call from them. And I've made up my mind. I halt in front of the room, peeking through the glass on the door. And there inside the room, I see Prince, sitting on the bed. And my throat hurts so much. Tears pool in my eyes. I'm starting to doubt myself again whether I have enough strength to do this. To leave him. Right now. When he's still lying in the hospital. Wounded because of me. And it's very cruel of me that what I'm going to do next will just add more pain to his wounds, making them even worse. I move away from the door and lean back against the wall. I can't do this. But I have to. For myself. For him. For us. Tears escape my eyes and roll down my cheeks. It hurts so much. It hurts me to the core that I have to leave him. I wish I could spend more time

    I can't believe what I see. Is this real? Because if this is all just a dream, I don't want to wake up. Prince tries to move his finger again, but he's still very weak. I stroke his hand, a soft smile touching my lips as tears brim my eyes. "You-you woke up," I whisper. He gazes at me with his intense eyes. "I had a dream," he rasps, his voice just as weak as his stare. "And there, you called me. Many times." I brush my fingers across his cheek. There's a tear in the corner of his eye, and I wipe it away as it escapes. "I've been thinking .. " he pauses, his voice hoarse. "What if you haven't forgiven me? I couldn't just go away, leaving you like that, could I?” My lips tremble, and I choke in tears. He stares at me, his eyes begging. "Cheska," he whispers. "I'm sorry. I'm sorry for all that I've done to you. I'm sorry that I hurt you." I shake my head. He's begging me like he's dying. He has sacrificed himself to save me to the point that he almost lost his life. But now, here h

    I'm driving to my office when I hear my phone ringing on the dashboard. A smile tugs at my lips when I see the caller. Fiona. I press the speaker button, and her voice fills the air. "Morning, Drake." I almost want to bite my tongue to prevent myself from saying the next words, but hell with that, I decide to give myself a chance, ’Morning, beautiful." I know that she won't take this one like the other girls normally would have done. Still, a smirk curves on my lips. " You hit your head or what?" she asks, and I can imagine that she's rolling her eyes. "Easy there, Casanova." I chuckle. What a perfect way to begin my day in the morning. Our banters. Suddenly, all the tension from the morning rush disappears, just from hearing her voice. I like Fiona. Everybody might think that this is bullshit, since I always like girls. When do I not? Even my reputation as a player has already reached Fiona. But what I mean here is that I really like Fiona. I'm definitely taking this slowly and

    I can't believe that I let him hold me again when I broke down. I must admit that his being here makes my heart at ease while Damien is on the run. I watch as he sits at the desk in the guest bedroom, opening his laptop, while I prepare my breakfast. I don't know if he already had one or not, but there's nothing wrong with preparing the food for him as well. I hear him talking to a person on the phone about some academic projects. It's too early in the morning to talk about that -- it might be something urgent. Then I remember that he's supposed to start his internship in the oil company -- the one I visited when I brought him the notebook. That time, he told me that it would start in three months after he passed his interview -- which is around this month. Is he postponing the start date? Because of me? My heart sinks as I think again about the circumstances that I'm in. I've been right all along. Our future doesn't work together. Mine will be a hindrance to him. I'll only be a bur

    Cheska The thought of Drake purchasing a gun still bothered my mind the entire night, but I decide not to question him again about that. I keep wondering why he suddenly decides to carry it now. We've been living in California for two weeks, and so far, everything is fine. This morning, he leaves for work, as usual. While I'm about to finish blow-drying my hair inside my bathroom, I hear footstep sounds from downstairs. That makes my heart thump hard against my chest. Ever since the incident of Andrew breaking into our house in England, the smallest sound and the slightest movement can make me become a paranoid again. I'm sure that Jake has locked the door, so if it weren't him, who else would enter this house? Slowly, I step out of my room and head downstairs, almost tiptoeing so that I won't make too much sound. My pulse quickens as I finally reach the ground level. When I see the person entering the living room, I yelp in surprise. My eyes widen as I see Prince standing before m

    Cheska The moment I close the door behind me, my sobs finally break. I’ve never thought that I would say those words to him, but I had to. We can’t be together anymore. I’ve promised myself that I’m going to forget everything about my painful past, about him. I need to be strong, and I can only be so without him. I’ve planned my future, and he won’t be in the picture. Our future doesn’t work together. Mine will destroy his. Drake leans back against the wall, his arms crossed on his chest, his eyes closed. He has heard everything as well. When he turns to me and walks closer to hug me, I bury my face in his chest and cry my eyes out, hugging him back. I can’t bear the pain anymore. Hurting Prince breaks my own heart, worse than when he broke mine. He came all the way here for me. He waited for days, standing on the street outside. He still waited for me even when the rain had been pouring hard on him. He was crying when he said that he loved me. But then, I just crushed him with m

    Cheska As soon as Drake comes back from work, he visits my room. I sigh, closing my laptop. Drake leans back against my door frame, still in his office attire. “ Are you sure, Ches?” he asks me the question once again. I nod. This past week, I've been spending time with my laptop to figure out what I'm going to do with my life. And finally, I've found a light, filled with hope for my future. A way to achieve my dreams. "You know, I never thought that something like this would ever happen, but-" he falters, and I give him a hopeful look. A soft smile touches his lips. "As long as it makes you happy, I'm fine with it." Relief washes over me. I thought that he would be reluctant to accept my idea at first, butI always know that he's going to be supportive, as long as it's the best for me. I stand up from the chair, approach him and hug him, making him sigh. "Thank you, Drake. I always know that you're gonna be on my side." When we pull away, I do see the sadness in his eyes. Regrets

    Cheska Today is my second day in Italy. It’s early morning, and I’m setting up my new cellphone when Drake emerges in my doorway. He’s talking to someone on the phone before handing it to me, making me wonder who it is. “ It’s your friend Kate,” he says. “ She got my number from Prince.” The mentioning of such name still makes my heart drop. I sigh and take the phone from Drake. “Hello?” Kate’s cries fill my ear as soon as I speak, and she goes frantic. “Oh my God, Ches. Are you okay? How are you doing over there?” A soft smile tugs at my lips. I miss her. It feels like ages since the last time I heard from her. This girl is worrying about me like I’m dying. “I’m okay. Don’t worry.” “God, I never thought that – “ she stops talking and starts sobbing. “If only I’d figured it out earlier.” She’s speaking about Andrew. There’s a guilt in her voice, and I want to tell her that none of this is her fault. Before, neither of us realized that Andrew was such a psychopath. We thought th

    Prince Andrew ends up in the hospital. And I end up spending the night at the police station. That bastard is fucking lucky that I didn’t kill him, because before I could do so, three policemen came to stop me. I remember roaring like a mad person when they pulled me away from Andrew, who was already bleeding to death when the emergency response team from the hospital took him with the stretcher. My hands shaking, I look down and bury my face in them. What the hell am I doing here? I shouldn’t be here right now. I should be with her. Cheska. Cheska. Cheska. She’s the only thing in my mind now. I can’t imagine what she’s feeling at the moment. She must be scared, not knowing that to do. She must be broken. Hopeless. Alone. To settle the matters with the police, I’ve called my lawyer, whom I know from a friend I worked with for one of the influential companies I did my project with. He’s good, so I expect that the police can give me some dispensation once they find out that Andrew
