"I want to live in a place where strangers rush to help someone in distress."
-Ian McEwan-

Lana woke up from hearing the sounds of people talking, she tried to open her eyes, but even when she was already conscious enough to know she was fully awake, she saw nothing but darkness. It was then when she realized her eyes were completely covered. Laying still, she tried to recall her last memory. Good things whatever substance they used to rid her consciousness did not fully got rid of her memory or created hallucination.
The first thing she remembered was her encounter with Dimitri. She had a brief conversation with him and gave him her contact. Then what else? Yes, she was going to walk into the grocery store when suddenly a car pulled over and two men caught her out of nowhere. In other circumstance she could easily get rid of those men b

"God uses rescued people to rescue people."-Christine Caine-***Damian had managed to track down Lana's location, and as much as Dimitri did not want to do it, they ended up going in Vincent's car which had been provided for them. Dimitri had previously planned for a backup, but he had yet to tell anyone else beside them about the location they were heading to. With Dimitri driving and Damian on the passenger's seat beside him handling the GPS linked straight to the device on Lana's body."There, it is just around that corner." He stated, Dimitri stole a quick glance at Damian, thinking he might be crazy since they were already at a dead's end but he decided to follow through anyway and he was surprised to see there was indeed another turn at the edge of the street. He was pretty sure that place did not even exist in New York's map. He had

"Ever has it been that love knows not its own depth until the hour of separation."-Khalil Gibran-***It took a week for Dimitri to completely recover from the gun-shot wound, which was far too long for him. On the flip side, during those times, Lana was staying by his side, sometimes while working on her project, since her work did not really require her to be present physically, she could work from pretty much anywhere. During his recovery, Dimitri felt utterly useless, though he knew he was not. Recovering from an injury was a common occurrence for him who had been through far worse than that, but because Lana was present in the picture, he had wished he had done something differently to at least help her.That morning was no different, it was his last day in the hospital, he woke up early in the morning thinking he was going to start pr

"Freedom is never dear at any price. It is the breath of life. What would a man not pay for living?"-Mahatma Gandhi-***Dimitri watched Lana as she mentally prepared herself for the return. They were seated across each other in the private jet, Lana was looking out of the window with a look of concern, he knew she tried her best to hide it but he also knew coming back there was the last thing she ever wanted. Her fingers were clutching on the fabric of her clothes, something she always did whenever she was nervous about something, which was quite rare. He had no idea what he could to comfort her, he wanted her to know she would be safe even if she was to return to the place because he was there for her and as long as he was alive, he would always protect her.The only form of comfort he could give her at the moment was words and a gentle b

"Underneath the stress is fear and the biggest is our own personal fear of failure."-Tara Brach-***"So you failed? The girl escaped and you can't even lay your hand on the man? What are you even doing!? When supreme leader hears about this you are going to be in a huge trouble. Get ready to have your position removed soon." The chairman spoke from the projection. This time he took the form of a blonde young man in his twenties."No, please don't tell supreme leader yet. I am still in the office, I could just hack into the system from inside and commit the attack from within. It will be done. Please, just give me a bit more time. This time I will get it right." He pleaded in fear for his own position. He did not really care much about the consequences, heck, the moment he joined them he just knew he would either come up on the top or out i

"The woman is the most perfect doll that I have dressed with delight and admiration."-Karl Lagerfeld-***Lana stared at her own reflection in the mirror, she had just took a hot shower and went to the closet to find the room filled with an abundance of dresses in all sorts of colors. It seemed he had prepared for them beforehand, and strangely enough everything was measured in her perfect size. She wondered if he had purposely seek out her measurement the moment she arrived. How was it even possible?Yes, she forgot who she was dealing with, when it came down to Vincent, there was nearly nothing he could not do.She did not want to waste too much time that day picking a dress for her first dinner with him after four years trying to run away with him.
