TAYLOR MACKENZIE

I walked back into the mansion, a hand rubbing my neck due to the grip Mayor had on me earlier. He was an asshole.

As I got into the house, I met Mark, he noticed as I rubbed my neck and immediately approached me. "Are you okay?"

I took a step backwards. "Yes, why do you care?"

"Your neck, it's-"

"Thompson tried to kill me. News flash, I didn't die."

He reached out to touch me. "It must have hurt."

I moved backwards again. "Don't touch me Mark, I mean it?"

He took back his hands, burying them into his pocket. "Why are you still mad at me?"

"I don't know, just don't feel like talking to you, just mind your business."

"I'm responsible for you, I watch you."

"Then do it from miles away, you don't have to be so close," with that, I walked away.

I didn't stop or turn to him until I arrived at my room. I exhaled and relaxed.

A week had passed since I and Samantha started our revenge journey. I usually snuck out in the nights of Wednesdays and Sundays to see her. And pic

    TAYLOR MACKENZIESamantha returned and walked straight to where she kept her bag, she reached into it and pulled out a sleek black gun. "In this life, we'll be faced with many challenges, from lots of enemies I'll call it, that's why we have to be ready for anything, as well as equiped.""Where are you driving at?" I asked.She faced me and extended her hand, giving me the gun with a serious look."What?" I stood to my feet."Calm down Taylor, take the gun and shoot that vase."I looked at the vase she talked about before returning my stare to her face. "I have held a gun before, once, Diego gave it to me. However I couldn't use it when I needed to, I-""You panicked Taylor, you were in shock and let your emotions take over you. Now is different, if you let yourself, you could master it and yield it whenever you want."I glanced at the gun, my face falling into a look of apprehension. "I'm sorry Samantha but, I don’t really want to use it. It has lots of memories attached to it." Sam

    TAYLOR MACKENZIEWhen Samantha said I'd be exhausted when she's done, I didn't think it would be as painful as it felt now. My back was hurting, so was my shoulders and fingers. I was quiet in the car as she drove me back to the garden where the tunnel was. "You good?" She asked and I nodded. "You're going to need to work hard and exercise everyday so your body can adapt to the stress and load you're giving it."I gave her a thumbs up and she led me to the tunnel. "Can you crawl?" She asked."Yeah, I'll try," I said. She bid me farewell and I found my way. I pushed myself until I slipped into my room unnoticed, being careful enough to avoid any unnecessary noise.I didn't strip any of my clothing but climbed on my bed collapsing onto it as my mind was still swirling with the training Samantha had made me go through. Well, that was past tense, I needed to get some sleep, no matter how little so that I could have a little energy before Mark would start his day by walking into my room

    TAYLOR MACKENZIEMark’s voice was steady but lacked conviction. "It’s nothing, Mayor."Mayor’s face immediately twisted into a scowl. Without a word, he crossed the room and slapped Mark hard across the face. The sound echoed sharply through the room. My heart missed a beat at the impact but Mark just stood, unmoved with his head still bent. "Why do you sound so soft?" he growled."I apologize, I was just getting Miss Taylor ready for the day," he answered."Really? And why are you just doing that now, what happened to earlier."Earlier? What did he mean. I looked at the clock and saw it was already twelve. Shit, Make didn't wake me up early, he gave me enough time to sleep. Screw this, he didn't deserve to he beaten by Mayor, I had to do something. "My apologies.""I don't need your apology, you'll be punished-""No! Stop."Both of them looked at me and I gave an awkward chuckle. "You see Mayor, I called Mark and was just yelling at him for waking me up early."Mayor’s eyes narrowed

    TAYLOR MACKENZIEIt was now evening after I locked myself in my room due to the attitude Mark showed me. I wouldn't lie, I was angry he yelled at me, he was an asshole for doing that. My stomach rumbled and I knew it was time to eat. I inhaled deeply and decided to open the door. However, before I could, it opened, displaying Mark, standing by the entrance. I rolled my eyes, I would have argued that I locked it but who was I kidding, Mark would surely have the keys to everywhere and everything, my life included. "What?""Dinner," he answered, showing me the covered food in the tray he carried."I'll pass," I made to close the door but he blocked it with his legs."Your stomach says otherwise, I could hear it from outside."I stared at him. "My problem.""Is that so?" He asked and opened the covered food. That was it, I lost my mind."Screw you!" I grabbed the food from him and rushed inside my room, eating like my life depended on it. Mark entered the room and closed the door before

    MARK JAXONHere goes my life of torment, since Taylor pushed me on the bed and straddled my laps, I haven't really been sane, or was it even me or the man down there, according to her.I Inhaled deeply, trying to suppress my inner demon, she belonged to Mayor so that automatically makes her a no go area, if not, she'd regret turning me on with that little action. I walked into the dinning table, where she was having breakfast with Mayor. Something seemed off with Mayor lately, I noticed he hasn't been around as usual, neither has he paid attention to what Taylor has been doing, I knew she was definitely up to something and I'd watch her until I found our what exactly it was."Mark," Mayor called."Yes Sir," I replied."There seem to be a problem."Taylor stopped eating and looked at him."What could it be, sir?" I asked.He inhaled. "Leave us Taylor.""What?" She asked, her eyes widening."You heard me.""But-""I do not want to repeat myself," Mayor said.Taylor frowned. "Whatever,"

    MARK JAXON The day for the party came and I stood outside, waiting for Taylor and Mayor to arrive. Mayor was the first to arrive and he looked around, obviously wondering why Taylor wasn't here yet. "Where is she?" He asked, his eyes looking up the stairs. "Probably getting ready," I answered, following his gaze. "For how long? Go bring her down!" He ordered. "Yes sir," I nodded and turned to leave when I saw her. Taylor was approaching us wearing a breathtaking white gown that seemed to shimmer under the lights. I wouldn't lie, I was completely mesmerized by the vision of her. The fitted bodice hugged her curves in all the right places, accentuating her slender waist and full bust. Her hair was left on loose, cascading down her back. This woman was beautiful, radiant and her footsteps were with confidence and her full lips, painted with a soft pink lipstick. "So, how do I look?" She asked, smiling beautifully. Damn it, this woman would be the end of me. "Beautiful," Mayo

    TAYLOR MACKENZIEWhen I walked out, I knew I caught their attention, it was exactly what I wanted, what I expected. Mark's eyes widened on the sight of me and Mayor looked at me like I was the most valued possession he's even acquired. I decided to say something and stop all the stares."So, how do I look?" "Beautiful," Mayor commented and approached me while Mark just stood there."Looking all hot for me," he added and before I could react, he kissed my lips. I felt disgusted, irritated and couldn't wait for it to end. When he eventually pulled away, I faked a smile but one could tell it wasn't from my heart. "Let's go," he said and we turned to the car.Mark immediately opened the door for us and I glanced at him before entering the car. Mayor got in and we rode away. During the ride, I caught Mark on several occasions staring at me and I really wondered why, didn't he have better things to do. Mayor on the other hand was so busy on his phone and something about this party seeme

"You'll be invited to Sam's birthday party, over and over," Dexter said, all happy.I chuckled. "I will be honored, excuse me," I said and walked away.I opened the door and saw Mark, standing there. I ignored him and made to walk past him when he suddenly spoke. "Where are you going?" He asked.I stopped, turned and faced him. "To get fresh air, any problem?" I asked. "Isn't the air here fresh enough?" He asked."I asked, any problem?"He nodded. "Just be careful."I scoffed. "I am always-""Stop arguing, Taylor," he cut me.I frowned. "Whatever," I said and turned to go before stopping. "Caring doesn't suit you, have fun," I said and walked away. As I left, I made sure Mark wasn't following me before I snuck into the female restroom. I brought out my phone and Samantha spoke. "What's happening there Taylor?" She asked."Everything

    TAYLOR MACKENZIEI spent half of the next day nursing, caring and playing with Asher and Taylor. Asher had started calling me Mama and was so relieved when he woke up and saw me. Taylor on the other hand was quiet, she didn't speak much and preferred to smile. I wondered if Mayor was looking for us, if he knows I have Taylor. I didn't want to imagine loosing both of them, I would never forgive myself. It was evening already and I decided to check around the house for any other activity going on. I walked towards the kitchen and suddenly saw Mark with a bandage around his head. He was on an apron and was cutting vegetables. Even with his current condition, he still wanted to work. I walked close to him and folded my arms. He always saved my life, has gone lengths for me and I didn't want to realize it late. "What are you looking at?" He asked."What exactly did you do during that crash?" "Nothing.""Don't lie to me, we both were in the car but unlike you, I didn't sustain any injur

    TAYLOR MACKENZIE"Taylor.. Taylor can you hear me."My eyes opened. Although my vision was still a blur, I recognized the voice, it was Mark's."Mark, what happened?" I asked, seating up."We crashed, but we're fine. We've gotten away from them." My vision came back and that was when I saw him. He was bleeding from the side of his head, the blood flowing down his face."Mark! Oh my God, what happened to you?""Taylor, I'm fine. We called for help, they'll be here soon.""What about your wounds," I raised my hand to touch him but he caught them in his. "I said I'm fine.""You don't look fine, you-" I stopped when the sound of an approaching vehicle drew close. The door opened and Jayden rushed down with another boy who was nineteen years old, his name was Steve. "What happened to you, boss?"Mark helped me up and took my hand. "I said I'm fine."Once we were in the car, I checked myself out, I didn't sustain any injury, I was all neat but he was wounded, he even had a bullet wound.

    TAYLOR MACKENZIE"Stay away from me, it's all your fault, it's your fault they took my baby.""Taylor...""I hate you, leave me to die, what do you care!"He lowered his gaze. "Just..let me hold you, please."Tears filled my eyes. "Get away from me, please," I wept."Asher isn't dead."I looked at him. "What?""Remember what I told you about standing and waiting until he strikes? I knew he'd try to harm Asher so I had a plan, a cover.""What? Why didn't you tell me, why did you keep me in the dark, why did you push me away.""It was for a reason, Mayor was watching the entire time, he was paying close attention to us. We had to be careful."I cleaned my tears. "So, my baby's alive?""Yes, so please.. let me hold you, let me console you."I looked at him, tears flowing from my eyes. "Please, hold me."He nodded and came closer, embracing me in his arms. I held onto him. Crying my eyes out, this was hard for me, I couldn't do it without Mark, he always came up with something, he always

    TAYLOR MACKENZIE"Let go off me!" I shouted but Gerald joined, dragging me into the house. "Let me go! Someone help me! Please.""No one is coming to help you Taylor, if you don't shut your mouth, we might both have different rounds with you until we're okay," Gerald chuckled."Let me go please...let me go!" They didn't, instead, they pushed me into a room. I stood to my feet, looking around for an escape route but that was clearly impossible. They began undoing their shorts and that was when it dawned on me, they were going to rape me, each of them. My cries were a deafening screech when a glass vase was broken on Gerald's head. Thompson turned and I saw it was Genny, the nanny."I am sorry Sir, I didn't know it was you two, I thought it was a stranger.""You old hag," Thompson brought out his gun and shot her. The echo of the gunshot filled the whole place. He glared at me before looking at Gerald who was unconscious on the ground. "Guards!" He shouted and his men arrived."Dispos

    TAYLOR MACKENZIEA year later."Happy birthday Tay!" I looked at Taylor who was smiling and taking her gradual steps. A year had already passed and I wouldn't lie, all the days has been nice. Thompson hadn't pulled up anything funny and although Mark still maintained some distance, something told me he was up to something that would be helpful when the time comes. I watched Taylor run into Thompson's arms with a happy face. "You okay Ma'am?" The nanny, Genny asked. I faked a smile. "Yes, I am.""It must be so beautiful to watch your child walk," she started.I frowned, couldn't she tell I hated when she poked her nose, but she always poked, and something told me she would never stop. I faced her. "Yes, it's beautiful, could you get the presents already?" I asked. "Right away," she said. "However, some guests are here," she announced. I smiled as she said this, I actually invited Asher and all I had to do was pay a random woman to pretend to be his mom. News flash, Samantha and M

What if he kills us all or hurts my daughter in the middle.""Taylor, you're going to need to calm down, Mayor's watching everyone closely in this house. The security is more tight than it's ever been, the CCTV is very active, we could get caught." "What am I going to do?""Like I said, stand and wait until he strikes. Excuse me," he walked away.Tears filled my eyes, were they insane? Stand and wait until he strikes, what kind of stupid idea was that? Even Samantha hasn't been online since, did they want to see me dead?I Inhaled deeply, it wasn't like I didn't have a plan, I did, it's just that I wasn't certain it would work. If there was anyway Mayor had found out about my vengeance, he'd definitely strike and that was when Mark and his cohorts asked me to wait for.I laid beside Taylor "I promise no one will ever hurt you, you're going to be fine.

Was this the feeling of having a baby, I was in love with this little form, I wanted to protect her, die for her and make sure she doesn't feel any pain in this cruel world. "Congratulations," the nurse wished, your husband will be joining you soon," she announced. I faked a smile and she left. The door opened and Mayor walked inside, his eyes fixed on the child."You look too beautiful for someone who had just gone through labor," he said and I smiled, it wasn't fake this time. I was happy to be carrying my baby. Mark was standing by the door with his usual stoic expression. "It's a girl" the doctor said to Thompson. "Congratulations.""Oh my," he said, I didn't miss the disappointment in his voice. He gently picked the baby up. "Look at you, looking so much like your daddy," he smiled.I faked a smile and looked at Mark who was standing behind, his gaze were on me now but it was empty. I gave a

I need to talk to you.""I'll meet you down stairs.""No, no it's an emergency.""We'll both get into trouble if Mayor comes in here, please, wait downstairs."I nodded, he was right. "Okay," I said and turned, occasionally looking back at the room before leaving and closing the door behind me. I tried controlling my breathing, Mark was breathtaking to look at.I found my way down the stairs, waiting for him. After a while he arrived wearing a brown singlet and shorts."Where are you going?" I asked."What is it that you wanted to say, say it while we walk," he walked past me, heading to the outskirts of the mansion.I followed him. "It's about the new nanny.""What about her?" "She seems suspicious and she said Thompson suggested I have the baby in this house.""Is that so?" He asked but there a was lack of interest in his tone that I didn't miss."What's wrong?" I asked and he stop

Deep inside, I didn't know if this wedding had any importance to Thompson or not but the fact that it played a huge role in my revenge journey was enough for me. I walked down the aisle to meet him with a smile people would think came from my heart. However, that was a smile of vengeance, a smile of my winning over him. Mark had gotten better and I told him about Jayden, he was skeptical at first but after carrying out some investigation, he found out he wasn't a threat. Now it was I, Samantha, Jayden and Mark, our circle was building. Oh, did I forget Asher who was seven months already.I got close to Thompson, he took my hands and we faced the priest. The priest started and we said our vows, kissed each other and now I was eventually Taylor Volkov.
