My Lover's Choice. A fight for love and redemption. UNAWARES 43
DIEGO SALVATOREI woke up the next morning and Taylor was still asleep, her arms wrapped around me. I placed a kiss on her forehead and climbed down from the bed. I had a bath and dressed up before walking to the bed. I kissed her lips and she stirred, mumbling some words I couldn't understand."You've got to wake up my sweet," I whispered, kissing her lips again until her eyes shot open."Where are you going?" "Out, you know our agreement. By 2pm, you should already be at the airport."She sat up immediately. "I'm sorry I overslept.""It's okay," I caressed her face. "It's okay my sweet, just be careful. I love you." "What?" She asked."What's wrong?""You've..never told me you love me."I chuckled softly. "I always did.""You said it now and...""Shh," I whispered. Placing my hand on her thigh and trailing up to the folds. She gasped, her eyes widening but she didn't make any attempt to stop me. "Do you like this?"She gulped, lips parted. "Yes, don't stop."I massaged her folds w

TAYLOR MACKENZIEIt was now 4pm and whoever Diego said would pick me up was still yet to come. I paced nervously outside the mansion, glancing frequently at my watch. The evening air was crisp, and the streetlights cast long shadows on the pavement. I had been waiting for what felt like an eternity, and my anxiety was growing with each passing minute.I looked down the road, straining to see if Diego’s promised car was approaching when a sleek black sedan pulled up to the curb. The driver, a middle-aged man with a stern expression, stepped out and opened the door for me. "Miss Mackenzie." I approached cautiously. "Are you here for me?" I asked, my voice tinged with concern.The driver gave a solemn nod. “Yes, Miss Taylor. Mr. Diego Salvatore sent me.”Relief washed over me. "Okay," I said and handed him my suitcase which he put in the car trunk before I slid into the back seat.As he entered and started the engine, I noticed a tattoo on his wrist, it was familiar and I knew I had se

TAYLOR MACKENZIE The men took me along, not giving me a chance to understand what was happening. We arrived at the hangar and then I saw him, the sole reason for my escape. Mayor or should I say, Thompson Volkov. He stood with an air of smug satisfaction, a sinister smile tugging at the corners of his mouth. "No," I whispered. “Taylor,” he greeted, his voice dripping with false warmth. “I’m so glad you could join us.” My eyes blazed with anger and confusion. “What’s the meaning of this?" "It's what it is, didn't you want to leave the country?" "I’m not going anywhere with you! I'm leaving with Diego, where is he? What have you done to him?" He waved a dismissive hand. “Oh, don’t concern yourself with Diego. He’s already met his end. There’s a bomb set to explode at the location he was held. I’m sure by now it’s already gone off.” The words hit me like a physical blow. My eyes widened in horror, and my knees buckled. "Diego," I whispered, tears filling my eyes. Su

TAYLOR MACKENZIE "Let me go," I struggled. "Stop struggling Taylor, you very much know what I'm capable of doing. So you'd better cooperate," Thompson said. I glared at him, if only he knew how much I hated him. I fought the tears and almost left my eyes, I couldn't be crying all the time even though it hurts as hell. The door opened, and a harsh, cold light flooded the cabin. I squinted as the blinding glare revealed a line of stern-faced guards waiting outside. Mayor pulled me out, his grip firm, and unyielding. He guided me down the steps and onto the tarmac. This was it, Hawaii. The start of my prison and life of hell, if I knew it would end like this, I wouldn't have bothered to include Diego in it. I missed him alot. I sniffed as tears filled my eyes, Mayor had hurt me terribly but what could I do, I was weak and unable to stand up from myself. I inhaled deeply, my eyes darting around, to take in the sprawling, heavily guarded airport that stretched out before me. If

TAYLOR MACKENZIEMayor pushed me inside the room and followed, his gaze never leaving me. “This is your room. Get used to it, because it will be your world for the foreseeable future. I trust you’ll find it comfortable, though I doubt you’ll be inclined to appreciate it just yet.”I turned to him. "You're enjoying this aren't you?" I asked.He chuckled softly. "We'll talk later, I have matters to attend to." Before I could respond, he turned on his heel and left the room, slamming the door behind him with a resounding thud. "Mayor!" I screamed, running to the door when I heard the lock click, sealing me inside. "Asshole, let me out!" I pounded on it with my fists, but it was futile. He'd never let me out. I sank to the floor, my back against the door, and my face buried in my hands. Tears streamed down my cheeks, Diego was gone, and now I was alone in a place where my freedom was nothing. I was alone, trapped, lost. I wept hard, pouring out all my emotions, I couldn't think of any e

TAYLOR MACKENZIEAfter so much debating, I sat down. Across from me was Mayor who was already eating.“Try the roast beef,” Mayor said, his voice smooth but carrying an edge. He gestured toward the plate in front of me.I returned my stare to his face. "You're really enjoying this aren't you?" "Enjoying what?""Control."He chuckled softly. "Who wouldn't."I rolled my eyes, hesitating before picking up my fork, the clink of metal on porcelain echoing through the room. I took a bite and chewed slowly, it was really magnificent but I made sure my face and expression was unreadable."How is it?" He asked."Don't know, don't care.""Oh, come on Taylor. You should appreciate the cook," he motioned towards a lady at the far end of the dinning room, her head bowed is submission. "Oh," I exclaimed and took another bite. “It’s good,” I said finally. "That wasn't hard, was it? At least you put a smile on her face."I settled down my fork, looking at him. "I hope you know I'd do and give anyt

TAYLOR MACKENZIE"What?" I asked, extremely shocked, personal guard."If you need me to repeat myself, I will. I said, I am Mark, your personal-""No! Stop," I cut him. "I heard you just fine, I just.." I stopped, my gaze hardening. “I don’t need a guard. I need to get out of here.”Mark’s expression remained unchanged. “I’m here in case you want to talk to anyone or need anything.""Didn't you hear a word I said?""I did. However, my role is to ensure you’re comfortable and secure.”"Hello Mark! I am not comfortable, this environment sucks and I don't like your company either. Leave me alone!" "It's my fault you're not comfortable and I apologize. However, I'll make sure you're more comfortable and secure from now on." My eyes narrowed in disbelief. “Comfortable? Secure? Is that what Mayor told y'all to say? To act? All I need is to leave this place. And if I wanted to talk to anyone, it wouldn’t be someone who’s loyal to Mayor. They’re all working for him. You’re probably no diffe

TAYLOR MACKENZIEThat evening, I ate dinner alone and due to Mark's watchful eyes, I knew I couldn't carry out my escape plan just yet. I'm sure he felt something was off about me. I retired to sleep after listening to his lousy lectures about being nice in the mansion. Whether he liked it or not I wasn't staying here for any reason. The next day came and after a restless night of fitful sleep, I waited for the early light of dawn before making my move as I knew I had to act quickly.I made my way to the small room which wasn't locked and headed for the window in the basement. I opened it fully, and tied the rope. Once I was done, I climbed out, carefully lowering myself to the ground.This was it, it was really happening? I was gaining my freedom. However, my moments of rejoicing was cut short when I felt the rope loosen. "No, no!" I whispered and hurriedly myself. My feet hit the grass with a soft thud, and I winced with relief, not even imagining what would have happened if the

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

TAYLOR MACKENZIEMy eyes widened. "Are you insane? How could you even say a thing like that, wait until he strikes? 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.

TAYLOR MACKENZIESome minutes had passed and I'm cradling my little angel in my arms. 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

TAYLOR MACKENZIEMy eyes shot to Mark's face and my cheek instantly flushed. "Emmm," I stood up. "I.. 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
My Lover's Choice. A fight for love and redemption. HAPPY MARRIED LIFE 98
TAYLOR MACKENZIEFive months later and I am standing in front of a mirror, staring at my reflection in a beautiful white gown. 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. The ride back was quiet as I was alone in the car, Thompson said he'd be joining me soon but I knew it was a l

TAYLOR MACKENZIEI watched as the guards carried royce into the van and we drove home. They were stealing glances at me and I wondered if there was anything wrong with my explanation. I told them I was attacked by a rapist in the female restroom and he came to help me but ended up being beaten up.I smiled and looked away, I'm sure Thompson's men were doing his bidding because of a person he's held hostage, a person or people dear to them. We arrived at the mansion and I headed straight to my room, I needed a shower to wash out the blood stains that were on my hands and clothes. After I was done, I settled on the bed, thinking. Lots of things were starting to make sense, I was slowly uncovering Thompson's hidden business. He traffics people, he's a monster and I would so end him. A knock came on my door and I sat up, looking at Thompson walk in.He stared at me for a while before folding his arms. "What exactly did you do to Jayden.""Jayden? And who is that?""Don't play with me Ta
