"That woman!" Vida yells, slamming the car door aggressively.Knowing better than to disturb her during her outburst I do myself a favour and follow her back inside the car.But what now?I'm stuck with absolutely no idea of what to do next, our main priority at the moment is how we can find the kids.I halt the ride barely a couple for seconds on the road and Vida turns to look at me, her eyes screaming with questions, the most important would be why I stopped the ride.For that I could give her no response but there was something urgent I had to say."Where are we going?" I asked after much deliberation and a very difficult conclusion.Her brows knit, and suddenly she raises one eyebrow in question as she nudges her head."Excuse me! What do you mean by that, you're the one with the senses, you know where the kids are," she says.I can't refute her words as they hold a lot of truth in them.I gulped hard, and now my head, "how am I supposed to tell her this…" I groan.It's only a ma
"Ash? Neo?" Vida screams, her eyes widening.She stands before the cargo, completely horrified in shock.That man really mean it when he said this was a cooling room, but… to think he would keep my kids in a cooling room, that alone is enough to fill me with great contempt. no one but two children alone in a cargo.Was Linda intending to drop the cargo into the sea.Just thinking of it fills me with hate."How dare that woman, how could she do such a cruel thing," I mumble to myself.Tears begins to stream from her eyes, each step she takes inside feels weaker than the other."My children…" she cries.Seeing how dispirited she is, I head inside first.There they are, sitted besides each other, cold, asleep and pale looking.I carry both of them into my arms, their weak bodies already feeling as light as a feather.Suddenly I feel a light movement on my shoulder.I look to my left shoulder and find Neo slightly awake."Papa… did we do well?" He whispers with his remaining strength, his
Right after the crazy situation, I had Linda arrested and that b*st*rd was caught while trying to leave this country by jumping from one border to another.Tch! How foolish he was to think he could beat me. I'm glad that's all in the past now but…"Dexter… can you hear me?"She asks, turning back to stare at me, her eyes beaming with expectations as she waits for my response.Right after Vida was able to find the kids, two things happened.The first is that her spirit is back and perhaps double what it used to be.The second–"I can hear you loud and clear, you did perfectly well, even much better than I did when I tried my first mind link," I told her.Although I'm not certain why, I can't help but be happy about this."Cool, now we can all say whatever we want to say to each other without saying it out loud," Ash yells cheerfully.With roaring laughter, the place echoes loudly, filled with the once grim life.Finally, our engagement was just an hour away.For our engagement, I had s
What is this?My smile vanishes as I stare at an unbelievable text.Nothing, save the time and address is in the text message, with a small note to me saying, "Dear Vida, if you would like to know the truth about how your parents died, then do endeavor to show up at the appointed time and place."I'm taken back in shock as I try to make sense of this.My parents?Didn't they die in a car accident? Could there be something more to it?As much as I am baffled by this, I take into consideration that this could be a trap, but who will want to trap me?Who would know about my parents wanting to use this to lure me?Linda is already behind bars and so is Erik, and I don't think I have that many enemies."Ha! This is a really difficult situation," I murmur to myself, covering my face as I brace myself."I'll just have to let Dexter know that I'm going out for security reasons."With my mind made up, I grab my purse, make my payment, and dash out of the spa without waiting for my session to e
Dexter's POV"Alpha, we're ready for you," I'm told."Huh!"My consciousness snaps all thanks to a tap on my shoulder.I sigh, tired and worried as well."In a moment."How long has it been, there's still no sign of her and it's making me anxious to the point where I can't think straight.I glance at my watch, anxiously I wait but I have a feeling I'd be waiting for a long while.Dialing her number, I get the response I've grown tired of listening to."The number you're trying to reach is unavailable.""Dammit!" What is going on, I need answers and I'm more pissed each time I realize that I can't get any answers.This should be the thirteenth time already.Where's Vida?Ever since she sent that text about her going out, I could feel a very big gap between Vida and me.Her cheerful self slowly fading, and the look in her eyes whenever we meet, is sad, and disappointed, I'm confused with no idea what to do.Like a proper adult, I've tried talking to her to know if something's gone wrong
"Where is he? Where's that b*st*rd!" I yell as I make my way through the midst of their security, barging into the company of the darn dastard."Please sir, our boss is currently busy, he can't take in any visitors," they tell me while doing their best to keep me out.Still, there's no way I would agree to be kicked out because of such a petty reason, the man who's responsible for currently ruining my life, how dare that man walk all over me and think he can get away with it."Don't tell me such nonsense, now where is he!"At last, I spot a door by the left wing, leading to a big room, and hurry to it.The staff tried with all their might to hold me back but their strength was no match for me as I stormed in."So this is where you've been," I say with quite a sarcastic laughter.While I drown away in the sorrow of having lost my mate, he's over here, sealing deals with investors for his company.The mere sight of him fills me with hate but this isn't a time to argue with him."Where i
Vida's POVKnock! Knock!!"Bailey, the boss is asking for you," I'm told.I sigh as I reluctantly gather my things to leave.What does that b*st*rd want again?Irritated but with no option left, I find myself clicking my tongue repeatedly as I drag my legs to his office.Knock! Knock!!"Sir," I call out while standing outside the door.There's no reply, this makes me a bit pissed. Just how much does he enjoy frustrating my life, jeez?I open the door and walk in.He's seated with three other b*st*rds, chatting and heavy with laughter, too focused or perhaps busy pretending I don't exist while I walk in.I sigh, closing the door behind me.At once all three of them clear their throats, staring at me as if they have found prey."Bailey, what are you doing here, don't you know how to knock!" The old geezer yells.I roll my eyes knowing where this is heading and bow my head in apology, but hold on, why should I be the one apologizing?Quickly I raise my head back up and stare at the three
"Boys," I call out to them sweetly.It's silent and it's that way for a reason. Both of them have decided to go on a hunger strike in protest that I let them at least call their father.At first, I thought they were just ranting but it sure doesn't look like that anymore.Holding up the bagged snacks in my hand, I set them aside, taking a quiet step towards them, cautiously watching around to find those pair of eyes."Kids, I know you're in there, so come out, don't make me come find you, because you know too well how good mama is at tickling, who knows perhaps I might turn into a tickle monster and tickle you for eternity," I tell them."Hehehe…""Shhh…"That giggle!I turn around at that voice, it's without a doubt Neo, having fun as he laughs away his hideout.Carefully I move towards them.I can hear Ash scolding him in a whisper the closer I draw."Look what you've done, mama would certainly find us," Ash tells Neo."But I couldn't help it, I wanted to laugh so badly, besides, Ma
