2024-10-29 19:42:56Marcus stared at the entranceway, waiting impatiently for Cara’s car to arrive. Suddenly the place seemed to be overcrowded with people. Traffic police jumped to the rescue trying to control the massive crowd who suddenly appeared from nowhere.
“What’s going on?” asked his mom, looking at the crazy crowd chanting, ‘Rohesia' deliriously.
“Cara is a Hollywood celebrity. These are all her fans,” said Nicholas, making her mom do a double-take and stare at the crowd with disbelief. Four black cars, guarding a limousine, came to a halt. Uniformed bodyguards alighted and opened the door to the limousine. Marcus held his breath as his desperate eyes looked on to catch a glimpse of her, his Cara. She might be Rohesia, a celebrity for the world, but for him, she was his Cara, the love of his life. His heart thumped lo

A haggard Lucas went forward to talk to Marcus’s doctor the moment he emerged from the emergency room. “Has Marcus gained consciousness, doctor? How serious is his condition?” The doctor shook his head. “We’re trying our best. We've carried out intubation successfully and now the patient will be shifted to the ICU. We'll start with the intravenous drips right away as well as inject antidotes at regular intervals. He should gain consciousness when the toxin level reduces,” said the doctor. “How soon can we shift the patient?” asked Lucas, wanting to shift his brother to Bellevue Hospital where Sienna used to work before. It was much bigger and better equipped to deal with the therapy that Marcus needed right now. “You can shift him once he gains consciousness. Right now his condition isn’t stable and I wouldn’t advise you to move him,” said the doctor. Four hours passed by and they decided to take turns at the hospital.

“What do you mean? I’ve seen her photographs with Frederick Gardner, the famous Music Director,” said Marcus bitterly. His mom shook her head.“I don’t think she has accepted him willingly. She still loves you,” said his mom with conviction.“How can you be so sure, mom?” asked a confused Marcus.“I saw the way she was looking at you. I’m sure she’s still in love with you.” Marcus was stunned to hear her. As far as he had noticed, she hardly even looked at him as if she hadn’t recognized him. He was sure that his mom was mistaken.“I don’t think so. She didn’t look at me at all. For that matter, she hardly recognized me,” he sulked. His mom handed the p

Marcus was immediately on high alert seeing the cars drive past him. Although he tried hard to catch a glimpse, the tinted windows didn’t allow him to check out who was seated inside the limousine. Was it Cara? Crossing his fingers, he decided to follow them to check for himself. The cars stopped outside the famous West End Studios while he remained at a safe distance, his hawk-like eyes glued to the limousine. A huge crowd had already gathered outside which made him certain that it was Rohesia inside. Surely the crowd wouldn’t go crazy for Frederick Gardner! True to his assumptions, the window rolled down and Rohesia waved at all her fans, making them squeal and chant her name like a mantra.Marcus watched her, noting her frail arms. She was never this thin! He noted the strained look on her face, the makeup not able to cover the sadness at all from his probing eyes. Marcus frowned, deep

“Marcus!” gasped Cara breathlessly as her eyes widened with renewed hope realizing that he was here for her. She touched the door to push it open when Frederick’s voice resonated in the corridor. She panicked and closed the door shut immediately.“What the f*ck are you doing here? Who’s inside the room?” growled an angry Frederick as he stormed towards her. Cara froze with fright and shook her head vehemently.“N-no one. I just saw a mouse,” she stammered with a pale face. She just prayed that Frederick wouldn’t open the door and see Marcus. Then there would be no saving anyone. Frederick would surely kill everyone she held dear, including Marcus.“Don’t bloody fool me, Cara. I’m sure there’s someone,” he gritted out as he stop

Suddenly seeing the man she loved right in front of her after so long, Cara’s throat choked up with too many emotions at the same time. Tears pooled in her eyes as she stared at him wordlessly, gulping down the painful lump in her throat. Did he really come all the way here for her? Time stood still for them as Marcus gazed at her, his eyes brimming with helpless tears.“I love you so much. Why did you leave me, Cara? I’ve been looking for you everywhere like crazy,” he cried, holding her close to his heart, crushing her to himself. For a moment Cara was shocked as the words echoed in her head. He loved her! He really loved her! His heart-wrenching confession as well as his tears touched Cara so much that she clung to him, forgetting the way he had betrayed her, the way he had kissed Cassie, everything.“You love m-me?”

Marcus drew out the disguise he had kept hidden inside his tucked-in shirt. He quickly slipped the loose gown above her dress and fixed a wig over her head. Then drawing out the silicone mask, he fixed it over her face. Satisfied with his handiwork, he picked her up in his arms and walked out of the door in confidence. With Mike’s men diverting the attention of the guards at the front entrance, Marcus carried her towards the back door.“Sorry, sir. You cannot pass,” said one of the guards. Marcus produced the VIP pass and showed him.“My girlfriend passed out after taking the drug. Frederick has asked me to take her to his personal doctor in case things go out of hand. I’ll just call him and inform him that you aren’t cooperating,” said Marcus, with a brave face although he was panicking inside. He had fifteen min

“I will go after talking to the doctor. They’re all sleeping right now. I can’t scare them so early in the morning,” said Lucas gently comforting her. Cara nodded in understanding and looked at him expectantly, her eyes searching his face.“Promise me that you’ll go and check on them, Lucas,” she pleaded, her tired body sagging into the pillow, while her eyes were hooked onto Lucas’s as she waited for his word.“I will, Cara and I’ll update you soon. Now close your eyes and rest till the doctor arrives. If all goes well, he might release you. Then we will be able to go and see your family together,” said Lucas. Cara’s eyes widened with hope.“That would be wonderful but why isn’t Marcus opening his eyes? I can’t leave him

Lucas froze upon hearing her. He was at a loss not having expected this twist at all. “Please Lucas, he’ll kill all four of them. Please ask your team to discontinue the chase,” she sobbed, breaking down completely over the phone. Lucas was dumbfounded by her words. He couldn’t understand how there could be four when he remembered Maria mentioning that Cara had only three siblings. Did he not hear her correctly?“Don’t worry, Cara. I’ll just inform officer Berkeley. I’ll call you to update,” he said, disconnecting the call. He found officer Berkeley on the phone as well. He disconnected the call and turned to Lucas.“The team is following Frederick discreetly. He has a weapon and we can’t take any chances,” said the officer.“H

Cara felt a little bolder and pulled him towards her. In her excitement, she had quite forgotten how heavy he was and lost her balance and tumbled onto the bed with him. “Oh, did you get hurt?” she asked, looking worried. Marcus laughed and pinned her with his weight, his eyes dancing with mirth.“Nope. I’m fit as a fiddle,” he breathed, his hot breath fanning her face. With his face inches away from hers, she forgot to breathe. A crazy sense of need surged through her body making her desperate for fulfillment.“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to exert so much pressure,” she whispered, gazing back at him.“No worries, babe!

“That’s exactly what I wanted to hear,” whispered Marcus while his fingers worked their way inside her dripping wet folds. A moan of sweet surrender escaped Cara’s mouth as he worked up a tempo, making her open wider to give him more access. He thrust in and out of her, his eyes devouring her as he watched her melt at his touch. Soon she came undone, sagging against the cushions behind her. Feeling overwhelmed at last to be touched by the one she loved, Cara closed her eyes with happiness. “Did you miss this? Did you miss my touch?”“Yes, Marcus. You have no idea how much.
