Damien's POVI watched as she picked up the phone to talk to Elena, completely ignoring my presence even as I tried to make myself obvious by serving her tea or giving her fruits.Her eyes were still focused on the device in her hand without even turning her pupils for a second."You better attend to your man before he swells up like a bullied child" she paused, confused , then turned to look at me. Instead of looking like the bullied child like I did a second ago, I only looked back at her like I was actually bored and not at all seeking attention."Should we go out?" I asked but she didn't seem to be hearing her words as she was only focused on Elena who was in front of her. With the background, it was obvious she was still in the hospital. It seems she's going to be there till her arm heals completely and I'm sure that's where the therapist is coming to visit them both."Are you two getting closer?" Asked the mischievous little Vivian who seemed to have invincible horns in her head
Third person POVVivian's eyes fluttered open, only to see someone she didn't expect to see again till she left this world.While she stared at her stalker, a woman in red heels walked towards Elena's room with a gun in her hand and she hummed a familiar tune in her head with her hands tapping on her gown in a particular rhythm and her steps towards the room skipping as she danced to the song in her head like a total psychopath.Her eyes widened with joy and her hair tied to a neat bun on her head while her short red gown gave her a very sexy yet dangerous feeling. Her beautiful heels tapped on the floor elegantly as she danced right in front of Elena's room.Elena heard the sounds of footsteps and turned to look at the door where the footsteps got louder but disoriented like the person was... dancing and humming a very familiar tune mixed with a very familiar voice.The door sprang open and Rose came in and shut the door slowly behind her before she moved to dance again while spinnin
Mason’s povThe rain poured down as the three of us stood in front of the grave without an umbrella nor a raincoat. Instead we just stood with our heads down letting the rain pour on our frames without a word. Elena fell to her knees, her lips pale yet she refused to leave the rain. She knelt down while Damien and I stood with our hands in our pocket, calls kept coming in from our phones but we both didn't lift up the device to even take a little peek.Why did they call? We knew why they called, we knew why they wanted our attention so bad. Because of the burning company, let it burn to flames and reach the point of bankruptcy after all she was the only reason I created the company in the first place. Now she's gone, I give her the company as her farewell gift.I took out the glass cigar box before walking to a corner which was covered from the rain and lit up the cancer stick. One drag...then another, Damien came to stand beside me, pulling out a tobacco to place between his lips
Elena's PovJune 20th 2024I checked the time, it was 6pm, my throat was parched, I couldn't bear the thirst any longer as I stepped out of my room, and walked through the staircase down which led to the kitchen.A strong smell of cigar hit my nose as I stepped into the kitchen. William had promised to stop this bad habit as I had always warned him against smoking. He's just too lazy to change, I thought, while I opened the fridge to get a bottle of water.I'm Elena Walker, 25, with a killer shape and pretty face. My husband William Tyson and I got married five years ago. He was the epitome of opulence and grace. With a networth that rivaled small countries, and a demeanour as cold as the Arctic, he was a formidable force in the business world.His steely gray eyes, sharp as shards of ice, seemed to pierce through anyone who dared to meet his gaze. His perfectly tailored suits, always in shades of charcoal or navy, exuded power and authority. Every movement he made was calculated, eve
I was anxious, that could be an understatement because I’m trying not to scream or do anything that’ll call attention to myself.I could feel my sweats dripping all the way from my head and my heart was beating faster. I was scared, “Could William know about this?”Thankfully, no one was in sight, I took a breathe of relief trying to calm myself down with the fact no one was in sight. I could remember vividly, William had once warned me never to come near this part of the house.Was this the reason?Dodging the corpse, I walked further into the room as I caught a glimpse of a figure standing at the end of the room. His back was bare as he was busy cutting something on the table. As a drew closer, an evil smirk could be seen at the corner of his mouth.Cold sweats dropped down my spine, this is devilish, I thought. The room was giving an ultimately fetish vibe. I realized it was him, maybe because I was too scared and tht was why I couldn’t recognize him at first.He turned to the side
A knock on the door startled me, my mouth instantly went mute. The knock came on again, and after a few moments, I managed to answer.I was in total shock and disbelief, I wanted to believe I was in heaven right now but it felt too surreal.“Who's there?” I hadn't completed the statement when the door flung open. It was my younger brother Marvis. I was two years older than him but he was very fond of me. He made it an habit to always come to my room every morning to check up on me. He flew into my room and jumped on my bed.“Why do you look like you have seen a ghost? He chuckled. My mouth was still hung open due to the shock.”Elena.““Elena.””Elena, are you okay?” He tapped my shoulder which made me flinch.“Yea-h Yea-h” I managed to mutter still standing and looking confused. He stare at me for some minutes but I was more lost.Remembering what I just saw, my tears came flowing out. My family never loved me? William is a murderer and a woman hater? I died, I freaking died.“What's
Elena's POV:“What are you doing?” My mother asked as she snatched the phone away from my hands.She ended the call immediately then looked up at me. “You even got a new phone, can you see this Greg?” My mom said, staring deeply at my dad.“Give me back my phone.” I replied, ignoring my father's glares.“Who were you calling just now?” My father asked, already upset.He doesn't deserve to question me, no one deserves to question me. I fucking died. Because of their greed and deceit, I watched myself get stabbed to death.“I am going to ask you that question one more time and if I don't get a reply. I will make sure you hate yourself.” My father threatened. “Who were you talking to over the phone?” He asked.“I was talking to someone that would get me out of this shit hole.” I replied rudely.“Who told you about this alliance?” He asked further.“I just happen to know.” I replied curtly.“I am glad you know now, it should make things a lot easier. Your mother was arrested a few days a
Elena's POV:From where I sat I could hear the conversation going on between my mom and the unknown person that rang the doorbell.“How may I help you?” My mom asked.“I am here to see Elena.” The strangely familiar voice replied.“Who are you? And what business do you have with my daughter?” My mom asked, already annoyed.“It's me Mason Brown, your son-in-law.”I guess I wasn't the only one listening to them, I noticed my father's sudden change in expression and the icy aura emanating from Williams.“Elena!” Mom called out for me.I was about to get up and attend to my mother when my father told me to sit down. He instructed my mother to bring the young man into the sitting room, clearly wanting to prove to Williams that Mason was lying.After a minute, my mom entered the sitting room with Mason following closely behind. His bodyguards, who were much bulkier than Williams', took positions next to Williams' bodyguards. Mason took a seat beside me after my mom sat down next to my dad.

Vivian's POVJust as we finished eating, he stood up to pay the bills before we entered the car of the driver who had been waiting for us for over five minutes."Sorry for the delay" Damien apologized while I rested against him, too tired to talk."It's alright" the man replied before driving off, I could hear him describe places in Europe but that's not what I was mostly concerned about, I just wanted to see it. The tower of love."We are here." I could hear someone say and without opening my eyes I knew it was Damien. He picked me up, placed me on my wheelchair while I struggled to open my eyes. Good thing he gave me a pair of sunglasses in advance."Where is it?." I looked around but couldn't find it. He stood behind me and turned my wheelchair around making me marvel at the beautiful sight which stood in all its glory."Let's go take pictures" he called a photographer he saw who walked over to take pictures of us."Sir pick her up instead, it looks too formal with the wheelchair"
Damien's POVI felt nervous as she walked over without speaking a word. I could feel a thin sheet of sweat slightly covering my forehead as she walked over to the big sign.Did she want to tear it down? She doesn't like something like this or maybe she wanted something more glamorous.My hands fumbled with each other and I pulled off my glasses to clean them before placing them back on. She got there with her shaky legs and I wanted to walk over to support her just in case but I know even if anything could happen I'll be there on time no matter what."Yes I'll marry you" Her words broke through my whole being and I shivered as my teary eyes met hers and a bright smile followed her words. I couldn't help but rush over to embrace her, before my hands could wrap around her she suddenly raised her hand to stop me."Where is it?" She looked around as if searching for something which confused me as I looked around with her too."What are you searching for?" "You didn't forget the ring did
Vivian's POVI sat in the plane looking around excitedly when he placed his hand on mine."Rest or you'll just tire yourself out" he spoke softly but I wasn't having any of it, I was already tired but I wouldn't tell him that, it's just a symptom. I'm sure he knew of the symptoms already, maybe he just wanted to act like it didn't exist and o wouldn't mind."No, I'm so bored, I want to play" I was cut off by a pair of soft lips smashing against mine. I mumbled and whined as he deepened the kiss and I couldn't help but feel fireworks burst behind my eyelids."There are children on the plane" a voice interrupted making me push away but the man in my arms wasn't allowing it as he pressed my body against him further but giving me a breathing space. I tried to push him away but his hands held mine. Even when I tried biting his tongue it didn't stop his wondering tongue as his tongue sank in to explore my whole mouth making me feel like an art being explored beautifully.I finally gave in t
Elena's POVI stared at the man who adjusted the bed cover once again with his mind unstable. "She'd be fine" this sentence seemed to be what he had been waiting for as he finally sat down but his legs moved up and down indicating he wasn't calm yet."What would you like to eat?" seeing he still wasn't stable but he was nice enough to ask for what I'll love to eat, my heart warmed up."Porridge" I didn't want to stress him. He might come back with the burger I craved for only to be sent back so that I wouldn't eat it. This almost made me pout like I was being punished but I held my sorrows and asked for plain porridge which literally had no taste."Is that what you really want?" He raised his head to ask me and I stuck out my tongue with a childish smile on my face. Of course that wasn't what I wanted but I couldn't tell him that unless he'd be torn between listening to the nurse and getting me the food."Yes" I should have known this man had something up his sleeves.He walked out f
Elena's POVI slowly opened my eyes squinting at the brightness of the room but someone stood up to block the sun which made me open my eyes wide easily."You need to train so badly. It seems everyone is just against you" were the first words I heard of the so familiar man and my heart skipped a beat then suddenly contrasted as he touched my face leaning towards me."I missed you" he whispered, his head resting on mine as my lips parted slightly and everything I felt like saying was taken back with a sob escaping my lips instead as I burst into tears."I'm sorry" my lips quivered while he shook his head with a small smile on his tired face."It's fine" I looked around to see the absent Vivian and a question mark seemed to appear on my face."What of Vivian?" Hearing this question, he suddenly paused and his eyes flickered around in suprise as if realizing something. He rushed out of the room without answering and I felt scared. Not caring about my situation, I pulled the needle out i
3rd POVMichaella grinned as she quickly picked up her phone to call the person who was on her mind. If she really needed help, it's so silly that she hadn't thought of Mabel before even though the two of them were sort of enemies.The phone rang just once before it was answered."And to whom do I owe this call" "Don't act so high and mighty. I need your help for something and I need it quick before it becomes useless" Mabel raised her brow with her mouth curling up onto a smile which would make anyone who saw her stay clear of her immediately."You do know everything depends on how good your deal is right?" Mabel tilted her head with her hand tapping on the kitchen table while every maid rushed to do their duties with no one daring to slack off."Actually it's not a deal, it's something we would both benefit from" "Does it have anything to do with ending Elena's life? Because that's what I crave for so bad right now""Yes, and this is the perfect opportunity to do so. She's at the
