Vivian's POVI opened my eyes to see myself beside a trash can .How did I get here? I looked around to survey my surroundings but it wasn't a familiar place. Where the hell am I? Fear gripped me. Could it be that these girls came back for revenge. I searched for Elena but I didn't find her.Where is she? Could they have taken her. I knew this was a bad idea right from the beginning. I got up from the floor to dust my school skirt while I searched for my phone. Thankfully it is still with me.Who should I call? Calling Mason would be a waste of time because he would be busy.I wind my hand through my hair. Suddenly I felt it again. Those eyes were watching me. I couldn't breathe. The person was closer than before.Tears filled my eyes as I tried to find the person, my eyes roaming round the unknown place."Who is there? Show yourself." I waited for the person to show up so I could stop wondering if I was the one making things up in my head.I heard foot steps behind me thinking it was
Vivian's POV Why does he not see me the same way I see him? Why doesn't he have the same feelings for me?"You came." I said like he wasn't right in front of me in a black long coat with a white shirt and black pants."You called me Miss so I had to.” He replied,making me feel like hitting myself."Always so formal as usual Damien style." "It's not good to call me so affectionately outside, Madam. They would think there is something going on between us. A madam and a butler." "It is not so bad. I'm not too young.""Yes you are." He bent down to fix my shoe laces. Why can't he understand that I really love him and it's not infatuation like he said.He looked at me,adjusted his glasses, and picked me up in a bridal style."Put me down,I can walk." "I know you can, I just want to make sure you won't slow me down." With that reply, he placed me in the car, got into the driver's seat and drove straight home.I wrapped my hand around myself to keep warm and within a minute I felt his ja
Vivian's POVI was scared of getting out of the bathtub.How do I tell him I lost her?"Vivian!" He yelled, making me jump out of the bathtub and I picked up my towel before opening the door. The last time I saw him like this was the day it happened. Now I know how he feels and I'm sure he'd feel the memories swirling around his head again."Please tell me it's all some kind of joke and it's not true." I took two steps back into the bathroom seeing my brother's furious eyes."I...I" I stammered."You left my wife to save yourself." He gritted and I saw Damien from the corner of my eyes coming out to defend me."It seems they didn't need her for whatever it is they wanted to do. That is why they had to dump her on the road and go with madam only. Your emotions are quite unstable right now. It would be the best time to take your drugs.""I do not need them." I watched him walk out while giving orders and I couldn't hold back the tears that threatened to fall."It's all my fault, if I h
Elena's POVI woke up to find myself in an unfamiliar place. My eyebrows furrowed and I tried to comprehend what was going on as I still felt quite dizzy.I tried to use my hand to rub my face but couldn't as it was stuck. It was then I realized I was in a sitting position. Looking down at my bound hands, I couldn't help but complain in my head.Come on, I just escaped from Williams some time ago, I'm sure he wouldn't be playing this kind of trick anytime soon.Who is fucking with me now?I turned my head around to see the musky walls staring back at me, the smell of wet walls filled my nose making me cringe and feel like vomiting. Seeing the place looked so old and dirty, it was obvious anyone who was trying to track this place would have a hard time doing so.I didn't even bother screaming for help, it would probably just drain my energy. Could it be the father of one of the girls I beat up who did this?But they should still be unconscious right now to make the call, and they knew
Elena’s POV"Cut the lies, Michaella. Aren't you tired of your own games, because I am.""Awwwwn, Cinderella thinks I'm joking with her. You are here because someone more powerful than you wills it.""Speak in a way I can understand.""I don't need to. Your parents now have someone better taking care of their needs and they are quite satisfied. Let's see if they will grace your marriage with him.""Just know that when you die I'll spit in your grave."Michaella burst out laughing."Not if you die first." "Where is Vivian?""Oh the blonde girl, I do not know...I think she is back there with the other bodies." "You sick bastard." I yelled at the top of my lungs. I could feel my own lungs itch and the rope used to tie my hands seemed to hurt more than before. I groaned in pain at the sudden pull."So sad, she died so soon." She said before walking out of the room in her red heels. While I started thrashing around the ropes trying to break free, the two men who removed my mouth gag earl
Vivian's POVJust as I was about to rush out, another message came in. I opened it and read quietly to myself, trembling."I do know you are rich but the person you are about to face, I will advise you to be careful. I found out about her location because the person wanted me to find out not that I found it myself."Upon seeing this message, I was torn between feelings of fear and relief. My heart felt like it was racing, as I was unsure of what to do next. Part of me wanted to go out and tell them, while another part wanted to sit and think carefully about my next move.I knew that telling Mason might not be helpful, as he might not believe me and even if he did, he would likely charge in without caution regardless of whether the person he faced was stronger than him. Elena was involved after all."Any advice in a situation like this dearie?" I couldn't help but ask."I do have one that might likely work, giving the impression that you came for no harm. You only want to rescue the gi
Mason's POVI knew the location was starting to get confusing and Vivian might have been fooled, so I divided my men into two.I made sure someone came with me while the others went to check the house address we got before.I sped towards the ship before discarding the board at a point and climbing the steps connected to the ship. A guard who saw me opened fire without pausing. I had no time for this and immediately took cover. Looking behind, I saw Damien arrive with Vivian. Instead of taking cover like I did, he came out surprising the man who was probably expecting him to take cover. But before the man could pull the trigger again, he passed out.Damien who had his hand at the back of the man's neck pulled it away to show a tranquilizer.I nodded at him but was sure the whole commotion attracted people already. I walked out of my hiding spot to see I was right."Vivian, stay here.""But I can go get her if they are distracted." Vivian tried to argue her way out which made me quite
Mason's POVLooking at the girl in my arms, I thought back to the scene at the boat again. The men who I thought were asleep vanished when I came out with her slack body in my arms.That's when I realized it seems everything going on is just a game for the people who are higher. Yes I do have a lot of power but it doesn't seem enough when protecting the lady in my arms."When would you open your eyes?" I asked no one in particular as my eyes wondered around the room. The memory of the room back in the ship came rushing back and my thoughts went hazy.It felt as if someone memories was placed in a room. The feeling was so strong that it sucked me back into a century I have never been in.I stretched my hand towards my phone to call the butler upstairs. My hand behind my back as I walked towards the corridor. I want to make the call but I still haven't. While I'm thinking about this, my mind couldn't help but divert to some other things.If I still had mother and father here they might
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
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
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
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
