Adonis

What the investigator said was still buzzing in my fucking mind.

‘Tina must have had help from someone rich and influential.’

The fact that I could not fucking get any sleep made it all worse. All night I roamed restlessly in the suite, trying not to let my fucking mind wander over to Leilani. The mere thought of what she could be doing tonight was so sickening that I blocked off that part of my mind with all of my willpower, and went down to the hotel gym instead.

So here I was, slamming my fists with maximum speed and momentum against the poor speed bag, rolling my arms and giving these restless motherfucking fists something to ease their fucking tension off on. ‘Somebody was helping Tina.’ It was just a possibility, and we did not know for sure, but it all made perfect sense. Tina always seemed to have so fucking accurate information about shit she should not even know despite her stalking.

Yeah, she had a family fortune to

    “The fuck?!” I cursed, and glanced over at the golden click spread over the wall. It was 7:58am. Leilani’s flight leaves by 8:00am. “Which fucking plane is she on?” I was moving at the speed of light as I grabbed the keys to one of the rental cars and flew out through the fucking door.I had two minutes.Tina could not leave this fucking city. Leilani would be exposed to her on a small, luxury island. Oh fuck, Tina was insane. Going after Leilani to hurt her during her fucking honeymoon. When she knew nobody else but Neil would be there.Shit. She could tell Neil the fucking truth between Leilani and I. Shit. Shit. Shit.“We cannot locate any identity that matches her on any of these planes, but she is on one of them.” The second investigator said. “She knows we’re tracking her. She knows we’re watching.”Tim exclaimed, “The airport is a ten-minute drive at top speed all the way from you

    AdonisThey obviously did not believe a fucking thing I was saying. But fuck me if I was going to take a fucking no from these dipshit security men. They had even formed a band in front of me, trying to stop me from going over to the cops. “Of course, it would not fucking match. That woman is a wanted murderer, and her name and identity have been tagged by the police. She'd obviously be hiding under a different identity. The police should do a more in-depth sweep right now of the grounded flights within this time.”Two of the men exchanged glances, and one cleared his throat. “Sir, only flights scheduled to leave after 8:00am have been delayed. All other flights have taken off before the police arrived claiming there was a criminal in the airport. Sir, this might be the same criminal you are talking about, although it is highly unlikely that some criminal could just bypass our top-notch security with fake identity and get on one of our planes-”

    When I went black, it was not unconsciousness. It was not anger. It was not just a mood. It was death. I was ready to murder anyone. I was ready to throw myself against any hard wall of brick, metal or titanium. I was fucking dead and dark in my mind, as something had finally snapped inside me. I barely showed any affection towards my family, but they meant the world to me, because they gave me the warmth I never had in my early years, even though that warmth was not enough to thaw part of my cold soul that makes me how I am today.The part of my being that haunts me when I am down, and drags me down to depressing levels when all I can feel is gloom and pain. I had grown farther apart from my mother growing up, but that did not fucking mean she was not special to me. And now, someone had the galls to hurt my mother. Darkness filled my vision and my mind as I drove back to the hotels like a bat out of hell, zooming on air and pushing the car to its damn limits. In no time,

    AdonisWatching Cora struggle to stay alive on a hospital bed was terrifying. More than anything else I have ever felt. Not just because of the fact that the doctors might not be able to flush out the poison and she might die, but because the scene evoked memories that I had struggled to keep buried.Years of therapy could only go so far, but soon, I caved in to the hollow darkness eating me up inside. I have seen Cora nearly die so many times, and seeing it again now… and not being able to do anything to save her had reduced me to the sad, helpless and scared two year old kid I once was. I was dying inside.Dominick was pacing in the hospital waiting room, yelling into the phone and narrating what had just happened at the person on the other end of the call. But that roiling and burning anger I had felt initially had faded into something else.Something that was consuming me inside. Something I could not explain, but I was very familiar wi

    Adonis“Adonis?” I heard someone say softly somewhere beside me. I opened my tightly shut eyes, and clenched my jaw. I was sitting on one of the uncomfortable hospital chairs with my elbows resting on my knees and my head bowed. It was so difficult to keep the memories away when I knew Cora was about to die somewhere in the emergency room.This was the ultimate trigger a couple of my therapists had mentioned. A trigger that could undo all of the progress and peace closure brings. The thing was that, I knew deep down that I never found closure from all the fucked up shit in my mind. All of that fear, anger, rage and pain were all bottled inside me. And that was why I have bouts of very deep depressions from time to time. Isolation. Period of self-loathing. Periods where I seemed to be most dangerous, yet that was when I was most vulnerable. Periods where I could not let anyone see the pain in my eyes.Periods like now.I never completed therapy. Beca

    •Flashback•I was still around high school age when it happened. The “peaceful” life I had sort of enjoyed for the past couple of years was fading. Because Neil’s biological mother just got the legal rights to get involved in a Neil’s life again, and that old hag, Freya, was trying her best to make life miserable for Cora. And I.The hatred she felt for us was so strong, because it hurt that Dominick had divorced her and remarried Cora. But the hatred I felt towards her was fucking stronger. So many things happened. Neil and I used to do everything together. We had the same gadgets, breed of dogs and shit. Until my dog mysteriously died.Vets say it was poisoned.I knew it was Freya who must have done it during her visiting times and I accused her. Neil, that fool, was happy to get to know his real mother, so he defended her. I was so traumatized seeing my dog bleed to death, that I could never get anymore pets. Because everythin

    AdonisInstinctively, my foot jammed heavily down on the brakes, and the car screeched to a haphazard halt, scratching along the asphalt of the road from side to side, before jerking to a stop a few yards away from the people standing on the road. I was breathing heavily, the smell of burning rubber filling my lungs, as my eyes squinted at the people with guns slowly approaching our vehicle.They did not look friendly.Cora let out a small groan, and I glanced at her, “Mom. Are you okay?”“I told you to stop driving so recklessly.” She winced, rubbing both of her hands on her forehead. “I can’t believe we just got into an accident and we’re still alive…” She had not seen the people with guns coming towards the car yet, and I did not even have the time to explain to her that the accident we just had was strange, possibly planned and it had nothing to do with the speed of the car. In fact, I had already slowe

    LeilaniI shifted against my large, comfortable seat and cranked my eyes open. I had dropped into a smooth, peaceful nap immediately the plane had taken flight and I think I must have been asleep for a while, because a light turbulence had stirred me up from sleep.“You finally opened your eyes, sleepy head.” I heard Neil’s voice tease me and I looked up at his seat beside mine, to see him reclined in his seat, air-pods in his ears and his blue eyes gazing right down at me. There was a beautiful smile on his handsome face, and it made me smile too. “How long have I been out, baby?”He arched one eyebrow, slightly displacing some strands of his golden hair peeking out from the depths of his big hoodie. “For a while. Getting on a long flight just a day after our wedding can be pretty stressful.” He leaned in, taking my cheek in his hand as he kissed me softly on my forehead. “So, rest up, wife. We have an interesti

    Leilani‘Iris, I’m in love with you.’Those words rang loud and clear in my mind as I hurried as far away from there as I could manage with tears pouring down my reddened face. I had heard their whole conversation. And he had said those words. Those words that I was dying to hear him say, those words that meant so much, so much to me… he had finally said them.But to another woman.My heart was physically searing up with pain at this point, and I just could not see the point of life anymore. After all of this, everyone left me all alone and abandoned. He is leaving. With Iris. I would never see him again. The memories were all I had, and they were like scalding hot coals burning everywhere they landed on my mind. It did not matter now that Freya was dead and Brooke was in jail. I had lost everything.They won.I stumbled out a set of glass doors, and out into the open, only to

    One week later.Leilani“I am so glad that you are well enough to leave the hospital, now.” Belle smiled at me eagerly, as mom and Ashley packed my stuff into bags so they could take me home, since I just got discharged. My face was permanently set in a flat expression, and I just stared at the wall like I have done for days now, not bothering to say a word in response.Ashley muttered to Belle. “She has not said a word to anyone ever since she saw Adonis in the ICU. I am worried about her mental health.”I could not bear listening to them talk about me like I was not even there, so I got up from the bed and moved out of the ward, randomly walking around hallways and down stairs like a fucking lunatic. I lifted my hand to wipe the tears which now poured out randomly, anytime they liked. The first time I thought I was experiencing heartbreak, it’s nothing compared to what I was feeling now.

    LeilaniI shot up from the bed with a gasp, eyes flinging wide open while the heart monitor began to beep drastically. I recognized that I was on a hospital bed, but my soul, my mind and heart were going insane to know what had happened to Adonis. I had collapsed like a pathetic weakling instead of helping Iris get him out of the wreck.“Leila?”I tore off the tubes connected to my hands and flung my legs off the bed, feeling the hospital gown drag down against my skin. I was hurriedly disconnecting all the shit that had been attached to me, while someone kept calling my name. “Leila?! Nurse! She’s awake- Leila!” I got up from the bed, but I was hit with a wave of dizziness so hard that I fell back on the bed, unable to even see clearly. Arms held me, and I tried to resist, muttering hoarsely. “A-Adonis… I need to see…”“She’s still disoriented. Pass me the

    AdonisThe hostess was standing in the middle of the race track, a harsh white spotlight bathing down on her as she placed one hand on her hip, her skimpy leather clothes shining under the light. She let out a wicked grin, “READY!”The crowd had simmered down, eagerly watching, hundreds of eager eyes straining to catch every tiny bit if the action. Engines revved. Breaths slowed. Gloved hands gripped harder. Boots inched down on the accelerator. Adrenaline spiked. Heartbeats pounded. She raised her other hand, holding a red flag, slowly bracing her legs in stripper heels apart for more balance. My eyes followed her movements like a hawk, ready to fly the moment she brought that flag down.The race track was some kind of very dangerous road with sharp bends and ugly surprises, and like any illegal race, there was no fucking way to monitor whatever the racers do once they speed out of here.

    I spread my arms and shifted to shield Cora away completely. “You’ll have to hurt me first, Freya.”She sighed. “Neil. I thought we already made some progress in our relationship as mother and son? Why are you taking her side after all that we discussed? Remember, you came to me, broken and destroyed and I welcomed you with open arms and helped you deal with all these problems-”“Problems that you planned?!” I yelled, the tendons on my neck straining against my skin. “You just fucking murdered someone right in front of me! So, it was you all along. How could you be so disgusting to make a sex tape of anyone, no matter who they are! How could you give Tina, a fucking psychopath, the power to destroy my honeymoon and shoot some shit up my neck? I thought Tina was crazy, but you are a fucking lunatic who should be locked up in that hospital forever!” I snarled. Cora whispered behind me, &ldqu

    NeilI had experienced the three stages of severe emotional devastation these past few weeks. Pain. Sadness. Rage. But tonight, I just realized that I had slipped into a stage that was more destructive than the other three combined. And that was Numbness. I had gone cold. My heart had finally stopped feeling.From Leilani. To Adonis. To my fucking mother. They were all monsters, and I knew what to do now. I had gone back to Freya after I saw the sex tape, and she had gladly welcomed me… only to find out now that she orchestrated all of this in the first place. She was a fucking monster. I had struggled with accepting that fact all my life, and now it had forcefully sunk into my brain like lead.The night was bleak. Leilani was still missing. And I have been walking for fuck knows how long, with my hands buried in the pocket of my sweats, face thrown back to stare at the darkness above, my shirt drenched with cold sweat. Cor

    He moved back from the camera to reveal a room, and in the middle of that damn room, was Leilani… tied to a fucking chair. My heart thudded in anger and rage as I saw Kygo, my old rival from when I was still an illegal underground racer, hunched over Leilani’s body, pressing a gun into her cleavage with a sick smile on his damn fucking face. Kygo yelled, “Come get her from me if you’re man enough, Ace. Try anything fucking funny and I will rape this bitch and send you the video. The way we almost did back then with Lily. Remember?”He laughed.“You fucked my woman, right? Iris, if you are there, know that your pussy is going to be mine whether you want it or not, bitch. When I get you, I will chain you down in a cage like my fucking dog and fuck you like the slut you are!” My eyes darkened as I whipped my face to look at Iris in shock. How the fuck does Kygo know Iris? And why does she not look confused?

    LeilaniWhen I opened my eyes, I was well aware of my pathetic situation even before the dark and miserable appearance of my surroundings reminded me. I had been abducted by Adonis’ biological father. The man that reeked of pure evil. I slowly straightened up in the corner of the room that I have been thrown in, shaking my head to clear the headache that was starting to grow.I did not even have the strength to panic.“Oh, the princess is awake!” A male voice said and I jolted with a startle, gasping lightly. My widened eyes looked around the room again to discover that it was not empty. Adonis’ father -or Saint, fuck, I could not even call his name- was sitting on a dark king-sized chair at the other end of the room, smoking a big wrap of weed. The room had dim lighting, but I could see the outlines of his terrifyingly familiar face, and the white smoke curling out of his mouth.“Is t

    The detective opened another file. “Let us take a look at Ms. Freya Declan's case study. Now, we shall agree that this woman has a history of being violent towards both Adonis and Cora. There are records of her hiring thugs to harm these people and their properties. Again, this woman has a lot of influence. Enough influence that she escaped punishments for her actions for a very long time, until she ended up in a hospital. And with this influence, she was able to make a mysterious visit to Dubai… and then left immediately, as if she was trying to distance herself from all the troubles that would start popping up after she left.“Again, she then mysteriously communicated with skilled armed men, to break her out of the hospital even when she could have easily manipulated her way out. Then she went into hiding. Disappearing the same way Tina disappeared when she was wanted. We have gone into very in-depth analysis of her activities and transactions, a
