I'm not scared or anything. I'm numb and clueless about what was happening to me. Until Leon suddenly appeared in front of me and kicked Ares in his side causing him to drop that gun.

"Get inside! Now!" He shouted at me loudly before quickly picking up the gun that was on the ground and pointing it at Ares.

"L-Leon, no!" I shouted and immediately grabbed him by his arm.

"Goddammit, Ana! Get the fuck inside now! Why are you still here?!" He shouted at me again and kept his eyes on Ares.

"You son of a bitch! I'm going to kill you, you motherfucker!" He screamed at Ares so I was even more scared.

I could feel the excessive shaking of his arm while holding that gun. His teeth gritted in anger as he looked at Ares.

"L-Leon, that's enough. Let's just go!" I told him as I was trying to stop him from shooting Ares.

"I told you to get inside, Anastacia! Call the police! Get out of here! Why are you so hard-headed?!" The patience he had kept for a long time was gon

    "I'm fine here, Ulysses. I'm too tired to even try to leave and go back to the hospital," I told him lazily when we entered the house.The whole area was quiet because it was already late at night. I'm sure Amari is resting, which I'm thankful for because I'm not yet able to answer the possible questions he'll throw at me."Are you sure?""Just… leave. I need to rest," I told him tiredly. He just nodded.Thinking that he was going to leave for good, I turned around but I couldn't take another step when I heard him calling me. But he didn't say a thing. Suddenly he hugged me so tightly that I completely gave up."Know that everything will be alright. We're all here for you," he whispered.I've heard these words every single day ever since the day of reckoning and I have to tell them the words with the same monotonic resolve that I have. My well-being cannot stomach the idea of not holding it together.I ricochet back the interrogative statements they throw

    I don't want to think that Hector felt that way before the incident happened. That thing is impossible. But maybe it's better than losing him forever.When the four of them entered—Sir Anton, Rusty, even Vera, I stayed at the door while watching them. I don't know if he will want to see me, he doesn't know me.Also, I don't think he's comfortable every time he sees me. I feel like it's not. Since he woke up three days ago, he hasn't spoken to me again. Every time he looks at me, only his cold eyes stare at me.I bit my lower lip while staring at him as he read. It suddenly stopped and turned in another direction. I'm not sure what he was thinking."Why don't you want to come in?" Rusty asked me when he approached me.I looked away from him."I'm fine here," I sparingly answered him but he ignored it."Let's go, I'll introduce you to our leader," he told me meaningfully then winked at me.I didn't do anything when he pulled me inside. They all looked at Rusty and me but Hector kept loo

    But to be honest, I didn't think of that right away. Yeah, Hector might remember something by the time I will bring our daughter here. We also have pictures. I could show him that and explain to him what happened. I can just do that.Why am I hesitating?When Vera went out for a while Ayanna separated from Hector. I was waiting to see what I would do next and I noticed her coming closer to me. Still smiling."So, why are you still here? He doesn't even remember you," she mockingly asked me.I just looked at her again from head to toe and smiled at her. Yeah, maybe I can do something about this."Out of the two of us, you have no right to stay here, Ayanna. You know that," I casually answered her even though the truth is that I wanted to slap her because of the thick look on her face.I just saw her again just now after she lied just to give us a misunderstanding. And this is what she will do.She grinned and artfully brushed her hair

    I was surprised when he said that. My upper lip lifted."Huh?""You can hold me. How many times have I seen you want to hold me but you don't continue? Nobody forbade you to hold me, right?" He told me seriously.My whole face immediately warmed up because of what he said. I don't know if he can't tell that I'm shy or what. Why did he have to say this directly to me?"I just...""Come here..." he said softly to me and raised one hand. I didn't move immediately because I didn't understand what he meant."Hector..." I uttered but he didn't say anything.My heart pounded when he motioned for me to hug him, which I immediately did. As soon as our bodies touched I immediately felt calm. My whole world just suddenly calms down. The voices in my mind seemed to be silenced the moment he hugged me."Now you're calm. I want you to know that my heart remembers you," he whispered to me so that I started crying.After t

    But my attention was not focused there if not on the person who violently picked me up and carried me on his shoulder. I couldn't even move because of the injury to my shoulder. I was bleeding and it hurts!"W-where are you taking me? Put me down!" I shouted at him and punched his back but he didn't budge.He ran faster and faster while I could still hear everyone's commotion.I forced myself to look up from crouching and that's when I lost hope when I saw that Don Damien's staff suddenly increased. It was scattered around and the exchange of bullets with the police continued."L-let me go! Where are you going to take me? You really are an animal!" I yelled at him as he let me down and put me in a black van.He looked up at my bleeding arm and looked at me again."Stop trying to hurt me, Ana. Just fucking stop it," he told me firmly and quickly tied my hands and feet.After a while, he followed me to gag me and cover my eyes so I coul

    I feel like I'm running out of air while running and feel weak. When I looked ahead, I saw the approaching yacht in the sea. My eyes narrowed to see who it was."Help! Help me!" I immediately shouted and waved my hands at them and ran again.When the yacht came closer to me, I saw Vera, Sir Anton, Hans, Rusty, and Lolo Leoncio, so I started crying."Grandpa!" I shouted and quickly crossed between us.But before I could get close to them, I heard a series of gunshots from behind me."Ana, get down! Get down!" Vera shouted and started firing but I was stunned by what I saw next."H-Hector..." I uttered when I saw him jump from the yacht and immediately run towards me."Solei! Fucking get down!" It screamed but it was too late for me to do that.I heard a few more gunshots before I felt that familiar warmth behind me. One more shot and I felt it on my shoulder again. When I looked back to see who shot, I felt that warm feeling in

    After a while, the door opened again and Don Leoncio spat out with his son, Gascon, whose face still showed intense anger."Ares is down. The old man escaped again but they also lost a lot of their men. We're sure they don't have enough people now to rush any further," Gascon Alcaraz stated while looking at Anastacia"It's good that that animal man is dead. What did the police say? Did someone chase the two? When we left the island, there was military personnel surrounding that townhouse, ah," Pantaleon Alcaraz declared and looked at his Grandpa Leoncio."What are your plans, Grandpa? Are you going to wait for your grandson to disappear before you take action? That person only wants one thing, for you to give up, right?" Added the man who seemed to be strangling the old Alcaraz.The old man's expression hardened as he looked at his grandson who seemed to be angry with him as well. His gaze turned to his granddaughter and his jaw tensed."I won't ad

    Night came but Hector was still gone. I can't worry anymore because maybe what will happen to him again like the last night he left and never came back.I was about to call him when I suddenly heard a horn outside our house. Thinking it was Hector I hurried to the door to meet him.My eyes narrowed when I saw not just one car parked in front but three. I waited to see who would come down from there.Elena with her boyfriend, Via with Ulysses, and Riley came down one after the other. What is going on?"He's not here yet? We thought that idiot would be here first," Ulysses greeted me and hugged me.I looked at Elena who was wearing pajamas and clinging to her boyfriend."Why are you here?" I asked her. "Where's Hector?""Apollo invited us here to have a sleepover. He didn't tell you?" She asked me so I raised my eyebrows."Is it obvious? That's why I asked why you're here," I answered sarcastically to her, which she just frowned at and tormented me."Nice to see you again, Ana. I'm glad

    "They are healthy. You will see them when you are well, so get stronger soon," he told me softly and brought his face closer to my cheek.I closed my eyes. I feel the extreme fatigue in my whole body and the pain of the wound in my stomach. I had a C-section. The last time I remember, I really tried to make it in normal delivery but my body gave up suddenly. Everyone gave in to me, so everyone immediately decided for me because if not, my children will be in trouble.I could feel Hector's tight grip on my hands so I looked at him again. He closed his eyes while his face was still buried in my neck. Apparently, resting... or praying? I smiled and almost cried when I remembered the first time I gave birth and he was not by my side during those times. It was normal delivery yet it was hard for me to carry. Because I'm all alone. Everyone was there for me, cheering me, but I still felt loneliness during those times. But now, despite the pain and fatigue that my whole body feels, I feel

    "Ares was right about you. He told me you're different than the other women out there. And I know he regrets that he used you in all his plans. What happened to us after that night, it wasn't the first time I saw you—the first time was when I rushed you to the hospital that day your father was shot by Ares. I knew I had to protect you because his group was also aiming for you. And then I never saw you again. I just found out that you are with Ares. That's when I found out everything he was planning and I had to rescue you again. And it pains me to see you hurting despite your genuine kindness. So when I saw Matthew hurt you, I almost destroyed his face after warning him about you. But he didn't listen. Your half-brother underestimated me, so I had to give him a lesson..."I felt surprised when I heard that. I suddenly remembered Matthew's broken face that was not done by Ares. So, that was him. Why is he only telling me this now? Why does he know more about me than I know about my lif

    I could feel the anxiety and pain slowly engulfing me as we crossed the road to the hospital. I didn't listen properly to what Leon said and the only thing that stuck in my mind was when he said where it was—he was rushed to the hospital!I immediately looked at the nurse's counter. "M-miss, Hector Aragon..."That's all I said because I couldn't understand what was happening around me. He seemed to understand what I said. He looked at his monitor for a moment before turning to me."Still in the emergency room, Ma'am."I frowned. "Huh? I thought he was—""Ana, I found them!" I heard Leon scream so I looked at him quickly.I didn't waste any more time. I immediately followed him as he led me to the emergency room. I can still feel my surprise because I know that his condition is critical. Why is he still in the ER?My mind became even more confused when we reached a room that was only blocked by curtains. I tried asking Leon what we were doing here but he suddenly stopped and Hector w

    Why do you need to keep this from me, Hector? what are you planningI didn't answer. I just stared at him. Measuring his gaze and how long he will go on lying to me. When he didn't really speak, I just got tired and looked away from him. I calmly went to the bed and lay down there. I suddenly felt a strange nervousness for an unknown reason."Hey..." I heard him call me.Next, I felt him sitting next to me. He caressed my cheek gently. I turned my back to his direction and tried to stop myself from paying attention to him."Baby..." he called me again. I closed my eyes tightly."Just go, Hector. I'm done talking to you," I told him lazily without looking at him.He kept caressing my cheek so I just closed my eyes.Where is he going? Does he know where his daddy is hiding so he will go to him? What will he do there? Why does he have to hide that thing from me?"I'll be quick. Don't be mad, please..." he gently said to me.I felt his hot breath on my cheek. After a while, his soft lip

    "Don't you want to join us there?"I turned to the person who spoke and saw Leon carrying wine glasses. It stopped at my side."I wish I could," I answered him regretfully. I suddenly felt sad for some unknown reason."You still can. Unless Hector doesn't want you to hang out with us anymore," he said to me seriously so I looked at him.I crossed my arms on me and looked at him intently."What's your problem with him?" I asked him. Leon suddenly smirked at me and shook his head. "His father killed your parents, Ana, as well as you. He tries to kill you many times and he couldn't do anything about it. Do you think I can easily accept that? You know me," he answered in his baritone voice.I heaved a sigh violently. I somehow understand where he is coming from. Between the two of them, Ulysses is the one who is over-protective of everyone. If Ulysses has been given and allowed all my luxuries and passions from then until now, he is not. This is one of the inherited habits of Lolo Leonc

    Everything he said did not enter my brain. I don't understand anything at all. He's giving up? Why? Why is he suddenly saying this? Where does it come from?"So, is it true? That because you love Leandro Alcaraz so much, you intend to betray mom?" I asked him in disbelief.That's because I'm still hoping that he might have another reason. That maybe this wasn't really his real reason why he did that.But instead of answering me, he suddenly stood up. I just followed him with my eyes until he arrived in front of the glass window of the study room. He looked there. His gaze was far away from nothing so I kept my gaze on him."Only my children know how much I love them... equally. What happened to Leandro was his own fault and he was the only one to blame for it. That maybe I was lacking in them that's why he did that. But it's not because I love him more than Ariza and Gascon. I did that because... it was your mom's will. He always wanted to give up but your dad just stopped him. We did

    I'm catching my breath because of the anger and pain I feel while watching her just looking at me and I can't even see any sympathy in her eyes.And I understand that.But it still hurts.Agatha laughed sarcastically. "And you're hurting now because? What right do you have to be hurt after the bad luck you brought to our family? Do you think you'd get my sympathy because we didn't love you enough?""I didn't ask anything from you since then, Agatha and even more so now. Do you even know what Ares did to me?" I asked her trembling. I looked up at her big belly. I remembered what mom told me when she visited me last week."Congratulations on your pregnancy, anyway," I said and cried again when I remembered what happened to my pregnancy."I was supposed to be pregnant, too, but Ares took that from me. After he tried to rape me, he caused my miscarriage and I couldn't even do anything to make him pay for everything he did to me. He died without difficulty. Do you think that's fucking unac

    "Where are you going?"I turned to the person who spoke and saw Hector who had just entered our room. It just woke up and maybe it came from Amari's room because they both slept there. His forehead was wrinkled as he watched me from head to toe."You didn't say you had something in mind today," he added and sat on the bed, watching me again while fixing my hair and face."Only at the law firm. I just need to talk to someone," I answered him then looked at him.His mouth was open so I looked at his lips. It was red and seemed to be calling me to give him a kiss. Even though he just woke up, he still looks very handsome. He is even more handsome with his appearance."Who?" He asked more. He slightly moved my chair closer to him and held me in his arms."It's Doña Valeria..." I hesitantly answered him.His forehead furrowed even more. He even licked his lower lip while clenching his jaw. "Why?" He asked again in his baritone voice. I swallowed."I'm not sure if she's there now, but Uly
