I felt the movement of the ship, indicating that it was departing from its current stand. I kept struggling to free my hands from the rope. It was already hurting, and I felt it would remove my skin, but I didn’t stop.
I looked at the two maids I was with. I was even in pain, and my heart became tender when I saw the blood kept flowing down from the eyes of the maid who got stabbed by Sharmon. As I gritted my teeth, I clenched my fists while the anger was building inside my body.
I’m not this kind of person, but when I get my hands out from being tied, I will let Sharmon experience what she did earlier, especially the feeling of being poisoned.
Even if I was in her hands, I am not afraid. I didn’t stop fidgeting with my hands and hoping that I could remove it, and I didn’t fail; all of a sudden, the rope tied on my back came to lose. A smile formed on my lips when I freed my hands.
<“Don’t move,” I whispered to Luna as I put a bandage on her face. She didn’t move, and I was confused why she was smiling at me; I just ignored her. When I finished bandaging Luna’s face, I immediately smiled, “It’s over,” I said, then stood up. “Can I sleep now, miss?” Luna asked. I know that she’s so tired from what happened, so I gently nodded that made her smile widened, “Thank you so much for treating my eyes, miss,” then she closed her eyes and then talked no more. I took the water basin full of blood and the medical kit. When I turned around, I saw Brielle, “Thank you so much for helping Luna, miss. And how did you know such a thing? Like medical pieces of stuff and treating something like that?” Brielle asked in astonishment. “I’m a nursing student, so I have some knowledge about treating people,” even though I haven’t had an official experience yet, at least I know something because of my passion for
“How can you be so sure?” I asked him when I heard about his answer. Suppose I will believe him, not now. I want to know Reign’s real opponent, and I don’t want to interfere, but I can’t just sit in the corner and always wait for him. Reign always helps me.“Because it was the truth,” I didn’t answer, and I can’t find the perfect words to ask him. I wondered why I’m talking with Shino right now, but all I feel is comfortable.Maybe, he looks like a chilling villain, but I admit that he was giving these good intentions, “How about Sharmon?” I asked him. Shino was staring at me, waiting to continue my words, “She almost killed me using poison and even stabbed a maid’s eye,” I continued as I tried to calm myself.“I’m sorry about my niece. She’s just like that. Sharmon has this psychological disorder, and
“Can you assure that those maids are in safety?” I asked Shino. We are still walking, and I don’t know where we are going. But I think we were on our way to the port where we had launched earlier.“Yes. You have my word,” Shino said, then continued to walk. I also felt Shino let go of me, and we walked together. I can still see Shino’s crew running, and others are preparing weapons and even their selves. It is as if we are preparing for a massive war.“If you just want to talk to Reign, why do you need more weapons and explosives?” Shino didn’t look back at me and kept his eyes on the front as I peeked down my path and looked at him.“I will also end everything here. To compensate for what Sharmon has done to the islanders,”“But you are not responsible for this,”“I promised my sister that
As I walked, I looked at the paper I was holding and focused on the map. It is not a map but a circle and line written while connected. Shino also provides directions.When I already know the maid’s location, I put the paper away and ran. I didn’t look back, and I don’t know what was going on with Shino and Reign right now, but hopefully, there was no trouble between them.I kept my gaze to the front, and I could see how Reign and Shino’s men were in turmoil. Fortunately, there was no gunfire because it would be dangerous and harm everyone; it will also take many lives. They fight with their fists, and that’s better than having gunfire.I even saw Blaze and Blade happily fighting. I want to feel sorry for both sides, but Shino and Reign’s men are good at fighting. If other women are here in this current situation, they’re already shaking at what is happening, but me?&

You don’t know how much you made me happy! Thank you so much. Stay safe with your family, and God Bless you. <3. Happy reading! I hope that you’ll love this update of mine. :)***“What?” I confusedly asked Sharmon. The smile on her face suddenly disappeared, and then she wields her knife in front of my face.“I said you jump in that cliff!” Sharmon shouted and pointed the knife at my face, so I backed away and felt that I already lose the gap between me and the cliff. As I stared at her, I could see in her face that she was desperate for me to disappear from this world.“Why are you doing this?” I ask. My hands were rest
Reign cupped my face with a gentle touch and drew it closer to him without breaking our lips being touched to each other. I felt Reign’s hand on my back, and his kiss becomes deeper. I don’t know what to do. Thinking that we are doing this in the middle of the dark makes me feel embarrassed. I immediately pushed Reign as I felt his kisses deepen. We shouldn’t be doing this. I’m happy, but I shouldn’t. I first need to know how Reign thinks about me. He suddenly kissed me, and it was my fault why I kissed back! Even though it was a bit dark, I immediately averted my eyes. I can feel Reign’s stares at me, and I don’t know his expression or what he’s currently thinking. I was blushing, and my heart is beating so hard. I can’t believe we kissed! “Hey,” I felt Reign gently touch my jaw, and he immediately faced it in his direction, “Are you okay?” he asked with a worried voice. I didn’t answer because I wasn’

I can no longer bear the heat I feel in my body. I don’t know which part of the house we are in. I want to take off every clothes I had on my body. I want someone to move in and touch me; it’s so hot that cooking my insides.I felt Reign’s tight but gentle grip on my shoulders in tandem with the loud opening of the door. Maybe, we’re already in the room. I heard the door close as well Reign’s slow pace. I don’t know if I’m in my room or his.I can feel Reign’s breath on my face giving heat to my body. I don’t know what I was doing. I suddenly reached for his nape and pulled his face close to mine with all my might. Without any remarks, I clai
WARNING: Sensitive Content and Adult Nudity. This chapter contains sexual activity, and those aged below 15 are not allowed to read this! *** I was lying on the bed while Reign was above me. I was naked while he was still wearing clothes, and I was pinned on the bed with both of his arms while his blue eyes stared at me intensely. I just stared at him. I felt ashamed because I was in front of him lying with my body uncovered, but I don’t think of getting rid of our current position. I don’t know, but Reign looks at me with lust in his blue eyes. “Are you sure with this, woman?” Reign asked. Suddenly, my body was electrified by his baritone voice. I don’t know what’s going on with me. I feel so hot; it’s like I want to stick our bodies together. With each hold, he makes on my body and Reign’s words increased the heat surrounding me. I don’t know what he’s ref
WARNING: Mature content ahead!—Three years later...“Congratulations, my love for passing the Nursing Licensure Examination.”Reign’s introduction as I set my foot inside our house. Two years ago, Reign and I decided to build our own home. Of course, I insist that I will share the expenses since I still have my savings for Russiana’s operation. Reign paid all the fees three years ago at the hospital without me knowing.I looked at my wristwatch and turned back my eyes to him, “It’s already late. Why are you still awake?” I said as I walked inside our room while passing Reign.“I’m waiting for you, my love.”“You don’t have many things to do in the Clan?” Reign shrugged. Reign was attractive with his tiny beards. It’s making my heart thump like in a
“Where are you?” Reign asked from the other line while my phone was in between my ear and my shoulder. I was currently at a Department Store, holding two paper bags. “I’m at a store.” “What store?” “It’s a secret.” “Ruchee.” “I’m doing an important thing. Gotta go. See you later; I love you.” I did not wait for Reign’s response and immediately turned off the phone, so he couldn’t contact and disturb me later. I might spill out everything I have of my plan. I sigh and then looked at the saleslady in front of me. “Would you like to make that on our special room, ma’am?” I nodded then smiled at the saleslady. “That would be great.” After she showed me and take me to the room she’s talking about, the saleslady left. There are some people inside the room, and when I
“Oh, stop that, sweety. You just had surgery last week, and you need to take a rest for the whole three months.”I muttered when Russiana pulled her things out from the bag, “But I want to study, Ruru,” she sadly said. Is sigh and sat on matching her height. I reached for her cheeks and gently cupped them as I stared at her eyes.“There’s a time for that, okay? Ruru already asked your teacher about your leave of absence for five months. They agreed because of your health issues. Do you want me to get mad at you?” Russiana shrugged her head gently, “That’s good, then listen to Ruru, okay?” she nodded. I brought my lips to her forehead and planted a kiss in there.After Russiana put her things back inside the bag, we got out of her room. I looked at her as I hold her tiny hands. I can’t stop smiling, and my heart was now at rest from being
“Do you like this?”“No.”“How about this?”“Not either. I don’t like strawberries.”“Chocolate?”“Sort of. Maybe that’ll work.”“Okay. Just wait for a second, and I will put some chocolate ice cream in a bowl.”I nodded then Reign walks out from my sight. I let out a deep sigh. It’s been three days since the incident happen where I almost lost my life again on Sharmon’s hands and was saved by Reign.After that night, Reign told his men to find Sharmon, but she’s already gone in the City. They tracked her and got the information that she already flees out to foreign countries. Reign wanted to follow Sharmon with his connections, but I stopped him.Since she’s already
Reign cupped my cheeks as he was holding a gun. Our body was wet, and he gently sat on the ground while carrying me in his arms, making my body lying on his lap.“I’m sorry.”Reign said while sticking our wet forehead together. I did answer because my body is weak, and I want to recover my fallen energy. He hugged me tight, making me facing his neck.“I almost come late. Thank God,” he then kissed my forehead as he caressed my hair.“How did you find me?” Reign stared at me with worried eyes.“I tracked your phone,” he then caresses my cheeks, “Thank you for calling.”I no longer spoke, closing my eyes while in his arms. My body weakened. All I want to do right now is fall into Reign’s arms. I feel safe and secured. He gave me this feeling that I can rest my mind b
My heart was throbbing fast, and I can feel how my head throbs reluctantly because of Sharmon’s tight grip and pulling. Yes. The one who was following is Sharmon. I tried to struggle, hoping that I can break free from her hands, but I failed. I think Sharmon’s strength doubled from the last time she wanted to kill me. “Finally. I’m holding your life again, biatch.” She said as she put all her force on grabbing and pushing me to the ground. My body hits on floor, giving me pain in my back and nape. I tried to stand, but I think the bones on my legs were affected. It was in excruciating pain that made me groan secretly. I was too tired at the Bar earlier because there are many customers to serve; that’s why my body was doubled in pain. Sharmon took her steps to me and stomped me with all her might. I feel like everything I ate went up. “This is wha
It’s been four days since Reign and I have our last talk. As I said, he did not show his face in front of me; instead, he sends the twins to the apartment. I didn’t refuse because they were already there when I came home from work three days ago. I also didn’t expect them to take a room next to us.For the past few days, I tried not to think about Reign, but I failed. Everything I do reminds me of him. I no longer feel angry with him, but my chest aches. Maybe because of what I found out.Honestly, I’m not really displeased. I was just too surprised. I wanted to see Reign talk to him and hug him, but first, I had to consider whether I could face and listen to Reign’s admission.I sigh and cast out every thought I have and started walking out of the Nursing Laboratory. Since it’s Wednesday, we just finished our laboratory performing how to extract blood from a patient.
“Are you sick, Ruru?” Russiana asked behind me. I was lying on the bed while covered with a blanket.“No, I’m fine, sweety.”“Are you sure? Your voice is hoarse, Ruru. You sound like an old woman.”“No, don’t come near Ruru. I’m having a cold. You might catch it,” I reasoned when I felt Russiana take her body to the bed where I was lying on. I don’t want her to see my face. It was already swollen with tears last night.Fortunately, Russiana was asleep with Thraia, so they didn’t notice my sudden arrival. When I remembered what happened last night, I couldn’t help but cry. I immediately restrained myself because my sister might hear my soft sobs.“Okay. I will ask Thraia to make a soup for you.”“Thank you, sweety,” I felt my little sister&rs
“How did you know about this place?” I asked Reign with amusement as I was cutting the beefsteak on my plate. He just smiled, and he fills his mouth while looking at me. I just shrugged my head. He’s been staring since we seated at this table.“It’s a recommendation from Gab. I rent the whole place so that we can have our privacy. Did you like it?”My jaw dropped because of how he casually said rent, but I just nodded while casting out that shocked expression of mine, “Yes. I love it. I did not expect that this place existed.”“I should give Gab a pat on the head.”“Why?”“Because you liked the place.”We’ve talked about a lot of things while spending dinner alone together. I asked Reign about what I was curious about, but there’s one thing I can’t spil
