Junia’s P. O. V

Truth be told, my breaking up with Nicholas was more like the turning point in our relationship because the only thing that it did was bring us closer to each other. It rekindled the burning flame of love and passion between us.

Never have I been happier with anyone like the way I have been happy with him. He just completes me in every aspect.

That night when I encountered Ethan at the bar, that night changed my life forever. It made me rethink things, if Ethan could be happy for me and Nicholas, then why couldn’t I make it work?

Why do I have to let the very little things tear us apart? We were both mentally stressed out and it was just logical that petty arguments would erupt between us but that doesn’t mean that I should just break up with him.

Nevertheless, I am back with Nicholas and that is all that matters!

Despite Nicholas and I making up, I still couldn’t get rid of the thoughts of Briella. The thoughts of what she could be going through at the very

    Ethan’s P.O.VWhen I mentioned being petty, this was precisely what I intended! I don't care how far I lower myself—my sole purpose is ultimately winning Junia and having her to myself alone.“Gift? What gift?” Junia acted cluelessly with eyes glinting with confusion. I averted my gaze towards Charlotte and Nicholas while she followed the direction of my eyes. After staring at them for seconds, she darted her eyes back in my direction. “What gift are you talking about, Ethan? I don’t understand what you are trying to say and what are you doing here?”As soon as she completed her words, a bright light suddenly brightened the whole dimly lit place. Junia shook her head as she squeezed her eyes shut. “I don’t understand what is happening?” She muttered, placing her hands on her head as a groan escaped from her lips. Upon witnessing that sight of her, I felt an intense desire to embrace her, reach out to her, and just pacify her. My sole aim was to reassure her that she was forever sa

    Junia’s P.O.VDifferent thoughts coursed through my mind, rage boiling in the very marrow of my soul as I gnawed on my fingers, leaning against the headboard of the bed and no matter how much I tried, I couldn’t get rid of the thought of Nicholas that remained in my head.He was unbelievable!“That bastard” I seethed with rage before squeezing my eyes shut. Even though I broke up with him, he didn’t go after me, the only thing he did was stare at me with those puppy eyes. How could he even choose her over me? I know that he said that Charlotte was his first love but how deep was their love for him to do something like that to me?What did he even mean by mentioning something about her being alive? A groan escaped my lips, darting my eyes towards my phone and if I would be honest, I hated the fact that I was waiting for his message. Even if it was a call! It was more like he didn’t even care. “How could he even do this to me? So even if people were there? This was how he would have

    Junia At that very moment, as soon as the door slammed open, I shuddered, swallowing the heavy lump that formed beneath my throat. It was more like a scale fell off my eyes as I soon regained my senses. What the hell was I doing here? What in the world was I doing with him, especially at midnight? What would Nicholas even think of me after seeing me with him in this manner? Why was I even bothered about what he thought?Heat flushed up my cheeks as my cheeks turned red when what he had said earlier occupied my thoughts. “What did he mean by he would make me sleep?” I thought inside of me. For a second, it made me wish that I had a time-traveling machine to go back in time and set things right. If it wasn't for the pathetic situation that I was in, I was sure that I wouldn't be here at the moment. “I hate my life right now and I hate myself” I muttered under my breath.Jolting me out of my thoughts, Ethan walked past me, his shoulder brushing past mine as goosebumps soon littered

    Chapter My heart raced like galloping horses, my eyes almost bulging out of its sockets. Was this a dream?However, when I felt him trail his fingers down my back and his hands resting just above my waist, I felt shivers course through my veins. He slipped his tongue through my mouth, parting the tender fold of my lips in a way that sent an electrifying sensation inside of me.But the worst thing was that I wasn't even kissing him back. Gradually, I felt his fingers dig into my skin, the tips brushing the fabric of my bra. Time seemed to have slowed down at that moment and it felt like it was just me and I remaining in the world Every part of me knew that I didn't want this but at the same time, why wasn't I pushing him away? Why does he still have this crazy effect on me?I thought that I had gotten over him. Was it all a faux? Like a flood of memories, a swift memory soon flashed through my head.

    Chapter Ethan’s P.O.VAgain, I succeeded with my plans of putting an asunder to the relationship between Junia and Nicholas. Junia doesn't deserve someone as toxic as Nicholas, she deserves someone like me! Finding Charlotte wasn’t a Herculean task since I had already been digging into Nicholas’s chaotic past that he seemed to have hidden from the public. Anyways, I didn’t care about whatever happens between him and Charlotte and I don’t care about how far she goes to mess up with his mind. I also have no interest in going after him unless I see him with Junia.Well, that wasn't going to happen because Charlotte was back for him.My only interest was Junia and now was the perfect time to fulfill the promise that I had made to her. Since Nicholas was practically nowhere to be found since that proposal night, Junia returned to New York City, likewise I. My stay in Bali might not be memorable but at least, I ended up doing something for myself and that was tearing Nicholas and Junia

    Junia’s P.O.V“I know where you can find Michaela and the real truth behind her” I read out aloud before letting out a loud hiss as I tore the letter and hurled it in the direction of the trash can. “Good riddance to bad rubbish” I sucked between my teeth, dusting my palm because in the end, who the hell cared about whatever happened with Michaela?She could be in hell, she could be locked in the darkest abyss of it and still, I don’t care because that is where demons like her live for the rest of their lives. Anger surged through me when the constant message from Nicholas popped on my screen. He requested to see me again to explain things to me.What even gave him the audaciousness to think that I wanted to sit in the same space with him and have a conversation? The only thing that would bring Nicholas and me together was business and just business!It was about time that I blocked his number but for now, what mattered the most to me was the birthday party that I was going to be at

    Ethan’s P.O.VJunia tugged at my arms closely and even though she was trying so hard to put on a bold font, I could feel the nervousness that emanated from her. As soon as we both stepped foot inside the building, silence enveloped the whole place and the melodious tune of the classical song stopped instantly. All eyes settled on the two of us and the only thing that I wanted in that moment was to protect Junia with my life as she tugged more tightly to my arm.I heard her say. “I should have never come here in the first place. No actually, I didn’t want to come, you were the one who changed the plans and you were the one who forced me here. The plan was to stay in the background”I chuckled slightly amidst her rants while she quickly removed her hands from mine. She said again. “I don’t even know why I am standing so close to you. People would have the wrong idea again and they would begin spreading terrible rumors about things that are wrong”I responded. “This is the problem. Do y

    Junia’s P. O.VTears pricked the back of my eyelid, my knees wobbled and every part of me felt like I was about to crumble to the ground. I wanted to scream and tear apart Matteo but the only thing I did was remain at the same spot staring at the large screen that showed how Matteo raised his hands at Briella. With teary eyes, I glanced at Briella whose hands flew over her mouth, her eyes glinting with fear— the fear of the unknown or rather, the fear of what my father might do to her. Matteo thundered. “What is the meaning of all of this? Take this down now!”My father also yelled. “This is all a lie to tarnish my image and to ruin my birthday party! This is all a lie! This video is nothing but a doctored video” I couldn’t believe my ears. Briella didn’t even matter to him, the only thing that mattered was his reputation. The same damn reputation that is the reason why I became the family’s outcast. Slowly, the video faded in the background and when I was thinking that it was all

Ashlyn, my oldest child, a perfect replica of her father, shook her head. “How can you hate the snow? We should play in the snow tomorrow…”Ethan shook his head. “No!”She pouted. “Yesterday, Andre and I played in the snow alongside Mum but because you caught a cold. You couldn’t play with us but since you are getting better, can you just play with us tomorrow”She darted her eyes towards me, her eyes glinting as she pleaded. “Mum, can you tell him….”I sighed. “Baby, your dad isn’t feeling too well at the moment. You don’t want him to catch a cold again, right? You know he doesn’t listen to me again and he only listens to you!”Ashlyn gasped, snapping her fingers as she jumped on Ethan. “That is right,

The letter read;“Dear Junia, I am sure that by the time you are reading this letter, you will have regained consciousness. I am sorry that I am writing this to you while hiding in the dark like a coward but I can’t bring myself to face you. I feel like meeting me has brought you a lot of trouble which I would never forgive myself for. I couldn’t even keep to my words of me protecting you, I wallow in regret, sadness, and grief every day”“But, amidst all of this, you are still very dear to my heart. If fate wants, we will meet again in a happy and healthy state. I hope that you forgive me for causing you a lot of pain. I love you, Junia.”Then he disappeared like the wind

    Nicholas’s P.O.V**After A Few Months**Was it worth it?The things that I did, the people’s blood that I soiled my hands with. Was it worth it? Now, I lost everything and the only thing that remained was me wallowing in regrets. If I had taken things differently, then I was sure that I wouldn’t be in this situation!I was reduced to a pauper, I had all of my funds seized and somehow, the Government confiscated everything that I owned. I was left with nothing but sorrow. Why did I do this to myself? Wasn’t it quite appalling that the one behind all of this was never found? What happened on that island after I was arrested? Now that I thought about it, turning myself in was the best decision that I have ever made. After the dramatic turns on the island, someone or an organization went after almost all the members of the cartel, totally wiping some off while some were arrested. It was more like a huge sweep over that shook the entire country. Another mysterious thing was that whoe

How could so much happen in a day?When the rhythmic thud of rotor blades pierced through the air, I was supposed to breathe a sigh of relief, to be happy with the fact that help was here at last. But that wasn’t the case, staring at Junia’s motionless body as she lay in her blood. On the other hand, it was Aiden, the one that I trusted. Was this the end? No! It was the beginning of how miserable my life will be from now. Empty, desolate, and void. I wiped off my tears, at the same time, darting my eyes at the television. The news was on and it was about Nicholas who had finally been arrested and how Aiden was wanted. Tears formed in my eyes again. It was so painful and suffocating. I was so suffocated. **Flashback** Nicholas tossed the plank as his chest heaved up and down. “I wanted to run away but I saw the two of you from the shore. I saw how you were willing to protect her even if it all led to a dead end”“I felt ashamed of myself an

    Ethan’s P.O.V“We have to leave this place as fast as possible, there is a helicopter that is currently waiting for us”Junia breathed heavily, glancing behind her as we ran deep inside the island’s forest. She placed her hands on her chest, muttering under her breath. “How were you able to find me?”She pursed her lips slightly, tears glinting in her eyes. “I am sorry, I should have listened to you when you told me to wait for you. I was just concerned for my sister”I swallowed. “Don’t say anything. Just run if you want to see BriellaThankfully, I was grateful that I had listened to my instincts when something kept bugging me to add a tracker to her necklace. It was as if I knew that something crazy was bound to happen because first of all, Nicholas’s name wasn’t on the guest list just for his name to be added last minute. At that very moment, I knew that something was amiss. “I tracked you here! Don’t just worry about anything, when we get to the helicopter, we can talk about ev

    Nicholas’s P.O.VAiden sighed, running his hands through his hair. “From a very young age, I had always looked up to Ethan. He was the standard and he always did the bare minimum but still, everyone was like, be like your cousin Ethan. So isn’t being like Ethan actually doing the same things that he did?”My face scrunched up in confusion. “I knew that he liked Junia from the very beginning. I liked the same things that he liked, hated the things that he hated! I wanted everything that he had and no matter how much it takes, I did everything to get it”“As much as I liked him, he didn’t deserve the happiness that he had. Junia was the one who built him up so I thought, what if I snatched Junia away from him? Everyone would realize that he couldn’t do anything on his own so I used you!”He continued. “I used his weakness, Maddie! Despite everything that I did, he and Junia found their way together. I tried to tear them apart by using you, using Briella’s situation but still, they foun

    Nicholas’s P.O.VThrough the help of the yacht that was already stationed at the sea behind the house, I was able to get Junia to the island and finally, I was glad that it was all over. Finally, she was mine and in the end, it was just me and her in a world without Ethan Blackwood. I watched as she shivered and I pulled the duvet over her, tucking the strands of hair that were on her face behind her ear. She was breathtaking! She was everything that I had ever wanted. My voice was barely above a whisper as I stroked her in the hair. “It is just you and me from now. We are going to have beautiful kids that will make you forget about Ethan!”She groaned, talking in her sleep. “Ethan, Ethan, Ethan,” She mumbled. The smile on my face suddenly vanished, replaced by a frown! Why would she mention his name when I was clearly before her? I lowered my head, pressing my lips on her cheeks. “Very soon, you will learn to mention my name alone”I heaved an exasperated sigh but at the same ti

    Junia’s P.O.VI was so uncomfortable with the way Nicholas stared at me! It wasn’t only annoying but it made my blood boil because why in the world was he staring at me like that after the warning that had been issued to him by Ethan? While Ethan conversed with some of his friends at the event, I talked with a few people that I knew but despite all of that, I could feel Nicholas’s eyes bore into my face. His eyes almost pierced into my soul and it made me so uncomfortable. Anxiety crept at the back of my neck and I had no option but to dart my eyes towards him. I raised a brow at the same time glaring at him. “What do you want from me? Why do you keep on staring at me?” I sent him a text and he checked his phone almost immediately. He read my message, didn’t say a word nor did he type back. All he did was stare. He was a lost cause! Why did I even text him in the first place? I was sure that he had mental issues as well because if he didn’t, then why was he acting like a creep?

Jones sent the address that Briella had sent to him and it was another whole different address from the one that Briella had given me. Someone was playing games right now! I was snapped out of my thoughts when the door swung open and Ethan poked his head inside. He heaved a sigh on seeing the worry that was etched on my face. I rushed towards him, pulling him in a hug. I wrapped my hands around him while he patted me on the back. “Junia, you are going to smudge your makeup”On the realization, I withdrew from his embrace, darting my eyes toward his tuxedo that was already stained with my foundation. “I am sorry, I would clean it now”Ethan laughed. “Why would you clean it when I can buy another one? You don’t have to worry about that and on the other hand, you don’t have to worry about Briella. I have everything under control”I stared deep into his eyes. “Ar
