CHAPTER 93It was all down to everthing that would be best for what he wanted most at that moment and that was to find peace, and so when he had seen Tonia walking in that morning he had ignoref her there was no questions about hie she had spent the night nothing like that, all he did was act like last night hadn't happened.It was contrary from what he though initially as he kept his gaze on the road to make it so difficult he had found Laura panties in his car right there at the glove– compartment.At first he yead tried remembering what car Antonia took out, and tried relating it to her attitude.Though she had acted like nothing was going on at that moment it was easy for him to see through her and come to the conclusion that' she was hiding something.He rubbed his jaw still In shock, he Marveled about how stupid he was and tried all he could to bury the evidence.He walked away from the ocean side where he had just thrown everything including the very tickets to the restaurants
CHAPTER 94Should she fucking tell a lie, she tried thinking fast at that moment but couldn't each moment that sped through them both was like an eternity filled with a pause through time.As Riley's heartbeat quickened she thought through the entire situation one more time, she could as well deny the very existence of Damien but again she paid attention to the last thing he had said.“Ain't you going to anything?" Rhys speaking again drifted her out of thoughts.“You know what exactly?" She fakes her innocence ready to cry her eyes out of anything turned out to be the case at that moment.She was starting to feel that alarming feeling that came whenever she was anxious.To shake the situation off her mind, she stand's and makes her way away, this time with the duvet draped around her.She thought it carefully aware that there was a need for her to pick her words carefully, she could tell that anything she was going to say at that moment would be vital.“I don't know what you are talk
CHAPTER 95At first she acted like she was going to ignore it ever happening but with each passing now moment and as the memories of the night flooded through her mind it was more difficult for her to comprehend whatever all of this was, she was right there in the middle of this just because of Laura, she had chosen to walk through her that moment-It as just like yesterday when she had her first sniff and slowly as the effects had sipped through her soul , she apparently enjoyed every thimg it came with and so had returned to doing it again and again.She was at the moment about sniffing again when a knock had sounded through the room, as the echo drifted so did her heart.She was confused as who it could be as he hadn't heard the sound of a car driving in that moment—Driven to that blank shift In he was minf she stepped to the door and opened. Looking up, she noticed Laura watching her with knowing eyes that.seemed to say ‘Don’t worry, I know what you did.’ She obviously cou
CHAPTER 96The bag felt heavier than usual on my arm, probably didn’t even need the old thing but it just felt right while I threw in every single thing I could lay my hands on.The puff of air escaped forcefully from my lips the moment I lugged the heavy ass luggage out the door. As if every force was against my ‘graceful’ pull at the bag handle, my curls decided to remind me why I needed to shave the entire thing off in the first place. I let the bag slip from my fingers and yanked the stray strand of hair behind my ear just in time to see Christian exit the house.His hair was swept back as usual, neatly combed too but not obsessive kind of neat though, it was more I tried but I don’t need to try too much, well, that about summed him up when I really thought about it.I fought the urge to wave at him as our eyes met, I already looked like the blushing bride with my finger twirling a strand of hair behind my ear as I watched him close the distance. The sun wasn’t merciful against
Chapter 97“Should I stop?” He looked worried. I’d die if you did! “No. I want you to fuck me.” Christian moved from the door towards her, and with one hand on her chin, he lifted it and kissed her. He pulled her closer to him and she let go of the lip she was biting and a gasp fell out of her mouth instead. "Every fucking thing that you do affects me, can you feel it?" He asked and before she could understand what he meant by his words, he took her hand and then he placed it slowly on the budge of his jeans. Her jaw dropped open. He was fucking hard, She turned him on without even doing anything. But Tonia was the woman he loved so why then was he this hard for her? Was it that he just wanted something new this time? She didn't want to be an object of the moment or a substitute for Tonia. "I want you to leave" She broke the kiss and whispered with a frown on her face but Christian's next move shocked her. He burst into laughter and the sound of his laugh sent shivers down her spi
CHAPTER 98Covered with darkness he was still right there but sure of what to do, still it was hard for him to think about all of this that was happening at the moment, left confused .After she had left he Stepped out, it was more difficult for me to think about the entire situation at that moment.For one reason it made more sense that all of this was happening, he couldn't get his mind away from the fact that all this could have been averted if he had just stayed quiet.Once again he had made the mistake, the same mistake he had made over and over again—It was miserable, so much that he couldn't look her in the eyes, he was filled with a certain a feeling for uncertainity.“So." She muttered.She was unsure of what to say as well, she thought about it again … The fact that she had to face her after the moment she had with him.Of all things he could do she didn't know how to deal with the fact that she had just been involved with a feeling of animosity as well.She felt a bit sh
Chapter 99The door slammed angrily behind Christian as he stormed into the room, his shoulders stood at attention, painfully aware of Antonia on his tail.."You're really going to act like you're deaf or are you just simply choosing to be an ass?" The anger rang clear in her voice with every word that left her lips.Christian tried to shrug the annoyance off but all it did was throw coal into an already blazing fire.The reaction was swift and sudden but expected. She grabbed him by the collar of his shirt, his brows recoiled, his own anger rising to the surface."Now that I have your attention, I'd ask again," She arched hee briws at him in a challenge, "Where have you been, Christian?" The calm with which she broke each syllable would have made any one quiver, made any sane person lift their hands in surrender, but not him.Christian scoffed and shoved her hands off of him. "Never do that again." He warned before storming off into the adjoining bathroom. The frown remained on his f
CHAPTER 100Two days ago… Thoughts of one woman had constantly passed through his mind, especially in the mornings since he’d taken to jogging through the block against.He had taken this chance to stay away from everything including things that had to do with her,still he couldn't as she constantly filled up his mind…The more he tries the harder it was for him to understand all of the madness that was going in through that minute.Damien was trying to analyze his feelings for Riley and the best way he had thought was to completely shut her out of his mind.That day established a pattern that he had followed for the past weeks —The morning jogs, evening walks … All of these were just to stop him from getting crazy over things.It had been filled with moments like this, he would get up, poke about the house, and do whatever he had to do over this laptop.It had been two weeks since he took his annual leave and the only moment he had come across his friend and boss was when the
ÇHAPTER FINALEEveryone was shocked to find out that Alexa was missing. Laura sat on the ground holding the toy that Alexa was using to play before he disappeared. Her mind was blank and she didn't know what to do. Antonia and Christian were also present, both of them just as bothered as Laura was. "Where could he be?" Antonia asked Christian "Maybe we should check the CCTV footage" Christian brought up and immediately Laura got up from the floor. Why didn't she think of checking the CCTV footage since?"Thank God you had it installed," Antonia said as she rushed into the study with Christian and Laura to check the CCTV footage. It took a while before the footage played and Laura kept biting her fingers while counting the time, she was so scared but Antonia's hand kept patting her back as she asked her to calm down. They finally found the clip and watched it so as not to miss any detail. "Rian?" Laura questioned immediately the camera caught him "What did Rian come here for?" Ant

CHAPTER 149“Oh thank goodness!"

CHAPTER 148He blinked his eyes and opened, he was alive which at that minute was a very good thing, he could remember everything now as it appeared that all that was needed was for him to get a blow to the head.There was only one person in his mind at that moment and it was the one who had just hit Rian.At Moment he tried to move and found out he was restrained, he tried to think about how it had happened again, he had barely made his way in when he came across the fucking man, just when he thought all was said and done he got that devastating blow to head and the rest now was history, he was trying his best to think through the situation but still it was all confusing to him“Help!" He called out but his voice stretched to the distances giving nothing.“No one would hear you." His voice was familiar and so when he least expected it , he had looked up to find Rian.“Why … Why did you do this.” Christian cried out.Rian laughter filled the room, “Remember when I said the last time w
CHAPTER 147“Laura."She called out her name again just so she'd be certain this was not a dream sort of at that moment she would take anything, she would rather just disappear into the ground but instead she was right here, she was right here doing nothing than looking straight into the eye of the Woman she had betrayed her trust.“I am sorry —"“We need to talk." Laura muttered*****Laura had spent the longest time thinking of the right words to say to her about the entire situation but as it seemed it was turning out to be the hardest thing she would have to do at that moment.Most definitely she was still right there , with Antonia after all the madness between them and she couldn't be more happier.Now they walked across the lawn and ensured they were Actually were alone, prior to this moment she had thoughts about now she's handle this aspect of seeing Antonia she hadn't expected that she'd still be this be calm but it was exactly what she had done, she was calm taking in every
CHAPTER 146He feels like his mind would be torn apart that moment if he continued running, yet he didn't stop not because he didn't want to but there was a deeper force pushing him to just keep on going..He feels his heart threatening to fall apart but forces one more time to run through the flanks.It had only been two days since she accepted to give him a phone and it was funny it had contacts , was his life that miserable, so imagine the shock of her life when His phone beeps. He stops and picks up his phone to see he got a text. An unusual text. He reads it once and then again. The more he reads it, the more it sounds like a trap. It probably is, but then again, he thought he'd try it out.After the sex she still hasn’t apologized or tried to talk to him,He picks up the pace and goes for another lap before he’s done for the day. He wipes his face clean of sweat and heads for home.******He had been surprised to see that she was looking at him, but he' was feeling unsettled s
CHAPTER 145Antonia decided to take a walk and it was a every long one way from everything it had been the third time getting that call that was asking if she was saved, she had done all she could to keep the situation to herself now it is looking like she can't.Surrounded by the quiet stillness of the Vicinity, she sat at the bottom of the bench looking at everything listening to the sound of her own heavy heart beats as she was not sure if to go home or not. Every square inch of her body hurt. She’d completed what seemed to be a run to that place and at the moment she could do anything just to let her take in the eminent moment.It felt like a herculean task by working herself into a standing position, her heart still sank as she rested at the base of a small tree. Now, as she leaned against the trunk, she fought against the waves of thought in her soul looking to consume her , slowly she oddly could feel that blackness that threatened to overtake her. The move had been excruc
CHAPTER 144.IT was all starting to look rather ridiculous at that moment, and that was all Laura was trying to do at that time was to fix this— it had only been days since she had been here and still there was nothing for her to deal with it, she still didn't know how best it was for to deal with the entire situation, at the back of her mind there was still that bit of fact that she had to do something about all of this and that was go one after the other to each of this places to find what's she wanted, it made it harder that she had to fix this. Anger and anxiety felt heavy in hwr chest when whe recalled what she had insinuated about the entire situation, in her mind she felt that she was still to be blamed, whiel Laura hated her , she made it seem as though there was more she had to do.In her mind she felt that all of this was far from the Truth,even at that she still felt hurt by her words the last time they had been there enough that she could feel it weighing him down
CHAPTER 143Soon as the call went through she sighs in relief, it had been over Twenty hours since she had been trying to reach her boss so she could ask about the trip -Reports in the news stated a heavy storm at the gulf and all through that day she had been restless, it was a good thing that had fixed whatever drift she had with Rhys all she thought about was how dinner was going to be.“It is a good thing you are doing well." She spoke immediately she had picked up the phone.Laura mesmerized by everthing had a lot to say and so the call she had thought would last a little while spanned to Minutes.“Have you found anything yet?" Riley questioned.Once again it was the Woman being her kind useful self, though she was so self absorbed with everything happening she was glad that he was reaching out and that in a way, she was trying to figure things out for herself at that moment.All the situation were made difficult by the fact she knew all the details In her hands were scrap.Laur
