last update Last Updated: 2024-10-29 19:42:56

The next few days were more peace and quiet, for Leonica, than she could have bargained for.

There were no crazy spy watching her every move, no half sisters trying to kidnap her or ruin her life, no ex husband trying to win her over and the only thing she had to worry about was Ashley's condition. But even that had shown to have improved a bit during their last visit.

It was all perfect.

"You're awfully chipper this morning," Owen noted as they both stood in front of the mirror, fixing their outfits.

As per to reward herself for how well she had done so far, Leonica had decided to go all out, planning a whole day's date with Owen.

"Why shouldn't I be." She responded happily, already in love with her own idea.

Getting to spend the entire day with Owen while Ashley hung out with Anastasia and regrettably, Lloyd.

She still wasn't sure what those two were doing together.

"My life's finally sailing smoothly and I'm even going on a date with my Fiancé, today." Leonica said as she finished

    Ekeberg Park was one of the most beautiful parks in Oslo. It was full of flowers and trees and a very nice and relaxing place, perfect for a stroll. A sight that Owen was stunned to see when Leonica, half an hour later, pulled him out of the ice rink.“This is beautiful,” Owen said as he continued admiring the scenery while Leonica lead him by the hand, taking him towards the spot she had prepared specially for them.“I’m glad you like it.” She said and he turned to look at her, a wide smile on his face.“So where are we headed to?”“To the gazebo, right over there.” She pointed and Owen nodded.“Alright.”They continued their walk and soon, the gazebo came into view.It was a small white gazebo with a table in the middle and two seats. On the table was a basket filled with goodies, including wine and food.“Here we are,” Leonica said as she walked up the stairs and towards the table, Owen following close behind.“This is amazing,” He stated and Leonica smiled. “You did all this?”“Of

    Leonica woke up first the next morning, feeling refreshed despite the small ache in her lower back. She rolled over to find Owen still fast asleep, snoring softly and she couldn’t help but smile.He looked so peaceful and cute, she thought, wondering if she should find her phone and take a picture of his sleeping face.However, after staring at him for a few more minutes, occasionally playing with the strands of his hair that had fallen out of place, she decided against the idea.There was no need to take a picture of him when she had him to herself for the rest of her life.Deciding to let him sleep in, she slowly and carefully slipped out of the bed and tiptoed her way to the bathroom, hoping not to wake him.After taking a quick shower and throwing on one of his shirts that she dimmed befitting, she walked downstairs to the kitchen and prepared a cup of coffee for herself.Patiently, she waited for her beverage to be ready, tapping her fingers against the kitchen island all the whi

    “Irene Rosewood did what?!” Robert was off his seat in seconds, staring at his partner like he had just received a news equal to his death.But it was, because he knew if Benjamin Romero were to catch wind of this, he could kiss not only his position goodbye, but his entire life in Oslo.“The hospital said she slipped away during one of her examinations. They’ve searched the entire building and haven’t found her.”Robert rubbed his temples and groaned, his face scrunching up in frustration.“Where was security?! How could they have allowed her escape?”“Well, it happened while she was in the restroom. They suspect that she most have slipped out one of the windows.”Robert groaned once again. This was bad, like real bad.“What should we do, chief?” Candace asked. “Should we alert the Romero family just in case?”“And lose your fucking job?” He chuckled. “Don’t be naïve Candace. We’re going to handle this in a more quiet way, starting by putting out an APB. I want this entire town searc

    The moment Owen heard the line go dead, a sense of dread filled him. He quickly tried to recall her, but much for his dismay, his call went to voice mail.“The user you’re trying to reach is currently not available. Please try again-“ He ended the call before the automated voice could complete it’s words.He had a very bad feeling.He tried calling her once more, but his call went to voicemail again.The next time he tried to make a call, he called Cassandra instead. Steading his voice as he heard the phone ring, Owen reminded himself to be as subtle and calm as possible. Because for all he knew, Leonica could have possibly butt texted him her location and then ended up dropping her phone, cracking the entire thing.Yeah, that sounded like it, he thought, but deep down, he knew Leonica’s voice when she wa relaxed and when she was anxious and on edge and her voice a few minutes ago had clearly sounded like she was anxious and on edge.“Hello?” The sound of Cassandra’s voice pulled him

    Owen would not have believed that something had indeed happened to Leonica if he hadn’t spotted her phone, broken on the ground of the location she had sent him.As he picked it up and examined it, it was clear to him that she had in fact not dropped the phone, like he bad hopes for. Rather someone had deliberately stepped on it, putting a pretty shoe sized hole through the screen.“Fuck,” He cursed as he placed the phone in his pocket and then scanned the area, trying to see if there were any tracks, any signs of where Leonica might have gone.He didn't know how long he spent, but in the end, he found none, and that only fueled the panic growing inside of him.Realizing that he going in circles wasn’t going to help him out, he decided to finally involve the police. Luckily, he remembered the name of the officer Leonica had told him about, so when he called the station, he simply asked for her.“Hi, um, I would like to speak to Candace Lane?”“Agent Lane would be with you shortly, ple

    During Leonica’s final moments, when the world was fading into the blurry water blue background of the sea and everything becoming noiseless, she found herself thinking of two things.The first one happened to be the time she had just given birth to Ashley. He was tiny, fragile, and the moment the nurse had handed her over, Leonica was scared, not because she didn’t want him, but because she was afraid of not being able to provide him with the life he deserved. Money wise she was stable, but emotional support wise, she lacked, greatly. Her fear had bloomed even more when Ashley was about a month old and he seemed to hate everything she did. He seemed to hate her. That was the first time Leonica ever considered death. Ashley didn’t need her, Gabriel didn’t need her, so why be alive, she had thought.What was the point?But then she heard Leonardo’s voice mail and realized that she couldn’t run away and Leave Ashley all alone. She had brought him into this world and so she was going to

    Doctor Kareem’s words sent a wave of silent shivers down Owen’s spine, pinning his foot rooted to the floor and his mouth glued tight, unable to speak.Behind him, Cassandra threw herself into her husband’s arms and quietly wept and Benjamin lowered his head in guilt.“W-when, when would that be?” Owen finally found his voice.“We don’t know, it could take a day, a week, a month, even years.” The doctor sighed. “For now, I think we should all be glad that she made it out safely.”Yes, he should have been glad. Glancing behind Doctor Kareem as the door to the emergency room once again opened, this time around, Leonica being rolled out on a metallic bed, hair damp, eyes closed and skin beautifully pale, Owen felt a bitter taste explode in his mouth.Yes, he was glad that she was alive, but He wanted his Leonica, awake, smiling happily at him like she had done back at the ice rink. He wanted to see her skin shinning with its lively color and her eyes glistening with happiness each time s

    Leonica had her eyes closed, peacefully sleeping when a single snowdrop from outside found it’s way through the window of her hospital room. It landed in the tip of her nose, melting almost instantly.The cold liquidly sensation had her finger twitching, one, twice and then her eyes fluttered open.At first, her sight was blurred. Everything seemed distorted and unfamiliar. Her eyes wandered around the room, taking in her surroundings and her head spun.‘What happened? Where am I?’These were the questions that raced through her mind, the feeling of dizziness and confusion clouding her brain and then the entire thing came flooding back Into her mind.Irene kidnapping her, pushing her into the water, Owen coming to her rescue and the last thing she heard, the sound of him begging her to stay awake.All that, had happened how long ago? She thought as she sat up, looking around the room to assess the situation of where she was.It was neither heaven not hell, but a hospital room.‘How lo

    Anastasia had fallen asleep after her call with Megan, only to be awoken to the sound of someone knocking on her front door.Reluctantly, she slipped out of bed and made her way towards the front door and without checking who was at the door, opened it.When her eyes landed on the person standing in front of her, her expression switched from surprised to angry, then back to surprise, because she had not expected to see her mother standing in front of her door after so long.“At times I want to believe that you’re blind to my call, but then I see you winning all these cases on national Television and realize, oh wait, my daughter does have eyes.” Pushing her way into Anastasia’s apartment, Fiona dropped her purse and coat on the chair and turned to face her daughter. “Give me one good reason why you’ve been avoiding my calls?”“Didn’t Mason pass along my message?” Anastasia questioned, closing the door and heading to the kitchen to pour herself a glass of water.While doing so, she did

    Whatever dark, alcohol induced thought that had been roaming Anastasia’s mind was dashed the moment she gave Lloyd the pass code to her apartment and instead of doing anything when he arrived at her room, he simply tucked her underneath the duvet and sighed.“You’re really a case.” He mumbled underneath his breath, but she clearly heard it, and just as he was about to turn around and leave, she caught his wrist.“You’re leaving? You’re not gonna do anything?” She had blurted out the question before she could control her own words and in seconds, she wished for the bed to open up and swallow her.Gosh, why had she said that?The alcohol, yeah, it is as definitely the alcohol!“Do you want me to stay?” Lloyd’s voice interrupted her thoughts. “Do you want me to stay, Anastasia?” He repeated when she remained silent.Her grip around his wrist loosened and Lloyd nodded.Of course she didn’t want him to stay. That was simply the alcohol in her system talking.Swallowing the bitter pill, he

    Lloyd’s words had instantly sent Anastasia’s heart into an overdrive. Without even needing to focus on it, she could feel her heart beating hard against her chest, shaken up by his words, his proximity and the look in her eyes.And it scared her.Not Lloyd, but rather the familial pounding of her heart and the fluttering in her stomach, because she knew it all too well and it was a feeling she feared.It was the same feelings that had caused her unfortunate relationship with Derek.Those memories flashed within her mind and before Anastasia knew it, she had paled.Lloyd didn’t fail to notice this and in seconds, his expression changed into concern. But before he could say anything, she had broken free from his hold and stood up, walking towards her door and holding it open.“Get out.” She demanded.Lloyd was surprised by the sudden shift in her attitude. Just a few seconds ago, she seemed pissed at him, now the look in her eyes made it seem like she was trying to be on guard against h

    Shrouded by the darkness her office provided after lights out, with her eyes glued to the bright screen of her laptop, Anastasia replayed the CCTV footage she had gotten from Danco.She studied the man’s movement, how he had approached Logan, his face shaded by the black hoodie he wore. She paused the video during moments of their interaction, trying to read the lips of Logan.It was clear he rejected at first. He even looked appealed by the idea. But then his eyes suddenly showed the interest that had sipped into his mind after heading something that he hooded figure had told him.What could it have been? Anastasia wondered as she watched the part of their interaction where Logan had indeed offered the hooded figure payment, in the form of raw cash, but he rejected, handed the drive over to Logan and walked out.Smartly, the hooded figure had walked in the opposite direction waiting until the attention on his had lessened before he came back and entered the black car, which belonged

    “What?” Anastasia blinked in surprise after hearing what Logan had said. “He didn’t request for any money?”“Yes. As a matter of fact, it seemed like he was doing it not out of crude or hatred, but rather obligation. At first I thought something was wrong, I tried refusing it, trust me, but he insist and before I knew it, that bastard had dumped the concept and vanished.”Anastasia brows knitted together more. This wasn’t at all in the file that Kareem had given her. In fact, going back to what he had told her when briefing her about the case, he said the employee’s motive for selling the concepts was because they had gotten fired and had a personal grudge against the company.But that wasn’t the case, at least not from both sides.“And did you tell your attorney this or-““Yes, I have. I even explained the whole goddamn thing to Riley when his lawyer dropped by yesterday, but he refused to listen. He thinks I’m covering for the employee.” Logan sighed. “Look, I’m telling you the trut

    Anastasia sat in the chair farest from Lloyd, listening to all his assistant had decided to tell her about the situation.Yes, she had accepted the job. Why? Well it was simple, the pay. The money that was offered for her to handle this case was more than enough to buy her a whole island.Who was she to turn down such an opportunity. Most definitely not her and most definitely not because of someone name Lloyd Riley.“And that is the case.” Kareem concluded.“I see.” Anastasia hummed, nodding her head in the process. From all she had heard, learnt and was able to gather, the situation on ground had come about because of an employee who had stolen confidential files from the company and took it to a rivalry company, selling it off.But the rivaling company, either they were not smart enough to change the concept of what had been sold to them or that they purposely wanted to rub the fact that they had gotten hands on L.R co’s latest concept.Either way, it was a stupid move and Anastasi

    Lloyd woke up the next morning to find the bed beside him cold and empty. His brows furrowed and as he sat up, rubbing the sleep from his eyes, his mind recalled the events from last night yet Anastasia was nowhere to been seen.Did she leave? He wondered.He looked around, and his eyes landed on a piece of paper on his bedside table.Lloyd frowned and picked the note up, his eyes skimming through the words written on it.Last night was great, but I could have gotten better. I left some cash to thank you for your service. Hope we don’t ever cross paths again, Lloyd Riley.After reading the message, Lloyd’s eyes quickly found a thousand dollar bill placed on top of his wallet and he chuckled.“Is this a fucking joke?”Did Anastasia take him as a sex worker? Or did she think he was a prostitute?And she even had the balls to tell him that she hoped they were crossed paths again.He shook his head, still finding it funny that she’d leave a message like this.“Oh, Anastasia, you’re so cut

    “Lloyd Riley, I’ll make this a night for you to remember.”It was like a promise, or maybe even a declaration, but regardless, it was one Anastasia was determined to keep and she knew just how to do so.Over the course of years, she had dealt with boys like Lloyd, players, the call themselves. They waltz into your life, mess up your emotions and end up using you as a one night stand.Anastasia’s first experience at that had been painful, so right now, as she walked back to where she and Lloyd had been seated, she wondered how Lloyd would feel if the tables were turned on him.“You done?” Lloyd asked as she took her seat from across him, fingers curling around the glass of her whiskey.“Yes. The bathroom here didn’t really have much to offer.” She flashed him a smile, deciding to move on to her plan rather than delaying an further. “So, do you have any plans after this?” She asked, placing the tip of her glass on her lower lip and looking at Lloyd through her lashes.He narrowed his ey

    Standing in front of the mirror, Anastasia sighed, a frown etched onto her face as she checked herself. For a second, she debated whether or not she could pull off the outfit she was wearing.Her usual dress code, always having had the mindset of a lawyer and boss woman, was a simple jumpsuit or trousers and a blouse. But tonight, she had decided to switch things up.Tonight, she was wearing a knee length, skin tight dress, a dress that was cut at the front, revealing the bare skin of her thigh. Her hair, usually held up in a messy bun, was free flowing down her back, her lips a deep shade of red and her eyelashes long and luscious.As she stood there, checking herself, her mind began running wild.Why had she agreed to a date with Lloyd? What the fuck was she thinking?She shook her head, this for sure, was going to turn out to be chaos.Being ripped away from her thought by the sound of her door bell ringing, Anastasia decided to lock up her worries in the back of her mind and appro
