Bella insisted on seeing Daniel, it had been two days since she was told that he had been found but she was not allowed to go to him, she would see him today and nothing could stop her.She grabbed Aaron's arms when he was about to go out, "I'm coming with you" she stated firmly and he sighed"It's too dangerous...""I don't care, I only want to see my husband" she insisted and he thought about it for a second before nodding, "alright but just this time, I don't want the enemy to sniff that he is vulnerable otherwise, he will be in more danger""Alright, just this once and I won't insist on seeing him again until he has completely recovered" Brittany had gone back to check on her store and promised to be back soon and Bella hoped to be back before Brittany returned.She followed Aaron out into the car and noticed the guards that came along with them, was this how she would be living in fear and going about with armed guards? She reminded herself that this was the life of Nikolai Klau
Aaron cursed as he watched the driver check on the car tire, the taxi that Bella had entered had no way in sight, damn it, his boss will have his hide if anything happens to his wife. He never knew that his boss's wife could be this handful."Women, ain't they all a handful?" He muttered when he thought about Brittany. Finally, the car tire was changed and he went straight to Daniel's house, but the place looked like there was no one inside, he hated to worry his boss but he needed to know what was going on. He told Daniel about what transpired between him and Bella and that Bella was not in his house.Daniel's heart twisted when he heard about it, did she really carry out with her plans to move out? "She said she was going to move out, I think she has, find her, I want to know where she is""Okay boss" he replied as he ended the call, she was supposed to be with the boss in this difficult time yet she chose to move out, he sighed and asked the driver to turn around.He needed to chan
When Bella opened her eyes again, she realized that she was no longer where she had been, she had been moved into a tiny room and it had been shut from the outside, the room was dark and her heart raced in fear, she was claustrophobic. "No! They can't do this to me" she murmured as tears flowed down her cheeks and she struggled to breathe, "no!no!no! Please" she kept chanting as she banged on the door agitatedly, "Please, open the door" she begged and her breath hitched when she got no response from the other side, she slid to the ground and crawled to a corner of the room, folding herself into a ball, she started counting, "1...2...3..."Her mind flashed back to when Ben, her aunt's husband used to lock her in a dark room for hours, she could hear the mice in the dark coming for her feet and she would scream and beg for her aunty to save her but even her aunt is scared of her husband and she would only tell Bella to bear with her husband. She would tell Bella to close her eyes and c
Bella groaned in pain as her eyes slowly opened, for a moment, she thought it had been a nightmare, that she would open her eyes to see herself in her room. She swallowed painfully when she woke up to find out that she was still locked in, she felt so tasty already but she sat mute, too scared to move or utter any sound only tears were silently flowing from the corner of her eyes, will Daniel come for her? She had rejected him for keeping his identity a secret from her, of course, he wouldn't care what happened to her, he shouldn't. He should be in his hospital bed recovering and not run to come looking for her.The door opened and Calvin came inside with a bodyguard, who stared at her thoughtfully, "Your husband has 72hours, if he doesn't come, you will die""You are wasting your time, I have told you that he won't come. We had separated and I was going to get a divorce, now, do you think he would come for someone that he is no longer with?"Calvin narrowed his eyes at her, "You are
Bella heard the blast and wondered what was going on, the door flung open, and furious Calvin stormed in, "come here, you witch" he said and dragged her by her hair"W. Where are you taking me?" She stuttered as she was pulled along"Your lover is here and it's time to send the both of you to the other world"Bella was shocked, Daniel came for her. Even though he was still in the hospital when she was kidnapped, he came looking for her? Tears filled her eyes, to think that she wanted to divorce him when all he had done since he met her was to risk his life to save hers."Drop your gun or I'll blow off her head," Calvin said, although, Bella could not see anyone"I won't do that if I were you" Daniel's voice boomed just before he came into view and Bella attempted to dash toward him but she was pulled back by her hair and she cried out as fiery pain shot up her scalp"Let her go or your family dies" Daniel warned and for the first time, Bella noticed the people behind him, Calvin's son
Bella stared at Daniel who was pacing around the hospital wearing a worried frown, he hadn't rested since they got here and his limp was more pronounced, she remembered that he was in the hospital bed before leaving to save her and now with Aaron's life on the line, he wouldn't even drink water or sit down.Bella wondered if this was the fierce formidable being she had seen when he was dealing with his father. Indeed, Daniel has two sides, one that is very loving and tender, that will fight to protect those he cares about and worry if any harm before them, just like he was worrying right now about Aaron, and the other side of him is a side that she never wished to experience, just thinking about how cold and ruthless he can be when he is offended, she pray never to fall victim to that side of him. Someone who can pull the trigger on his father without batting an eye is worth fearing."Come and sit down, you need rest too," she told Daniel when she thought that her eyes would fall off
Bella paced worriedly with a lot of things going on in her mind, what if something goes wrong? Daniel was still recovering and now he had endangered himself for his friend, she wished that she was the one there instead of him but Daniel had offered to do it before she could even say anything."You love him, don't you?" Brittany said as she observed how nervous and tensed her friend looked, she knew that because she felt the same way about AaronBella glanced at Brittany, sighed, and sat next to her, "Yes, I do. I love him with the whole of my heart, you know; I wanted to divorce him when I found out that he lied to me about his identity but when I was kidnapped, I realized how much I love him and right now, all I can think of is that nothing should happen to him"Brittany placed her head on Bella's shoulder and hugged her comfortingly, "I feel the same way about Aaron you know, I didn't know how much he meant to me until I received that call from you that he had been shot, my world tu
Bella was surprised to see different faces waiting for Daniel when they got home, she only recognized one of the faces and that was Mrs Beta, the cleaning lady whom Daniel's friend had put in charge of cleaning the house. Of course, she knew better now that it was Daniel's doing because he was the owner of the house"Welcome back Sir Daniel," they said in unison, smiling at him and Bella looked at Daniel for an explanation"These are my workers, of course, you already know Mrs. Beta, the cleaning lady, well, that's her husband, he is my valet, this is Marie, the cook..."He went on to introduce everyone to her and also introduced her as his wife, placing a deep emphasis on the word "wife" that Bella blushedSo many employees to serve in a house, she marveled feeling awkward at how they reverence her and received her warmly as the boss's wife"So many employees to help in the house," she said as soon as she was alone with Daniel"Hmmm, henceforth, you don't have to do anything, you onl
