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
Vivian's POVI thought of checking up on Elena, after all I was the one who put her in this situation. What I didn't expect to see was the moment she asked my brother who he was.I was confused and scared. It really couldn't be that she lost her memory, could it?I entered the room slowly and her eyes met mine and she suddenly fell back to the bed and started convulsing. She seem to be in so much pain."Mason, what's going on?" I couldn't help but question the man who looked like his world was being ripped away from him at the moment. I watched as he rushed to hold her in his arms with fear clear as day in his eyes and his hands trying to hold her still without using so much force to hurt her more.All I could do was watch as it happened before my eyes, with nothing in mind and my legs stuck standing on a cigar bud.The smell of the room didn't register in my mind neither did the broken wine glass on the rug but her scream in anguish and agony seemed to pierce through my hearing leavi
Elena's POVI could feel the memories running through my brain and my body convulsed in pain.Williams, he kills people. The man I vowed to spend the rest of my life with, kills people.The memories burnt so bad as I tried to find a moment of peace but it seemed almost impossible, they wouldn't stop.I saw the image of a man, a man who looked so familiar yet was so unfamiliar. Where do I know him from? Who is the girl beside him?Are the memories mine or for someone else? The whole thing felt like a lie, a lie built perfectly well.I wanted to ask them who they are, what they were doing in my memories. I didn't remember them but I could remember Williams just fine.The way his eyes looked at me like I was his best possession and he is the monster I fell in love with.Someone I couldn't escape from no matter how hard I tried. My parents pointed fingers at me and scolded me. Even my brother see me as a monster all because of him.Then it felt like I was back in the past where I couldn'
Mason's POV I watched her fall apart in my arms as the doctor tried his best to calm her down but suddenly, she stopped and became silent after he gave her the injection."Will she be alright?" I held her body in my arms tighter while Damien looked away. I looked at his line of sight to see Vivian but at this moment she was the least of my worries.Even family ties seem to be a thin thread when it affects her now.I looked down at the woman in my arms whose lips were pursed and her forehead furrowed in pain. It looked like she was having a dream and I wondered what it's all about."Something seems to be wrong with her," the doctor said and I rolled my eyes."What's wrong?" He shook his head and his expression became blank."No, that's not what I mean sir. I mean there is something wrong that I can't explain. I have to take her blood back for tests. I have checked her eyes and they seem to be fine but-" he hesitated before looking into his bag quickly like i'd snatch it from him if h
Michaela's POVI opened my eyes slightly and frowned at the sharp pain in my lower abdomen before turning to see the empty bed. Somewhere in between all of this I wasn't surprised anymore. I got used to his disappearance. Getting up slowly from the bed I dragged the duvet and used it to cover my naked body.Walking towards the full length mirror, I dropped the duvet to the floor to see the marks on my body. The images of yesterday came rushing back. My moans, my nails digging into his skin as he filled me up for the third time."If not because of Elena, everything I wanted would have been in my hands now. She just came into the picture and ruined everything." Alexander would never choose me, and neither do I want him. The only person I'm doing all this for is Mason. I'm sure he'd see why I'm doing all this one day. I'm sure he'll realize how much I love him once she's out of the picture.A smile graced my face. It wasn't just a crush, it was an obsession. Since the day he saved me, I
Vivian's POVI didn't remember when I fell asleep or when he left but I woke up the next morning and the house was oddly silent. I got out of the bed while rubbing my forehead before going to freshen up. I walked into the bathroom to feel the same familiar eyes on me again. I thought I could ignore it this time but it was getting closer. I could feel that those eyes were getting closer and closer by the day. What should I do?I tried to ignore and enter the bathroom but just as I reached for the soap, a scream burst through my lips as I saw a letter under. The person had walked into my bathroom.My hand shook as I opened the letter."You sleep so peacefully, love. I didn't have the heart to touch you. I was scared I'll disturb your beauty sleep. And I don't like the man who watched you earlier. If I see him again, I'll be forced to take drastic measures." I could feel my legs about to give up beneath me as I struggled to get out of the bathtub. I put on my bathrobe before rushing ou
Vivian's POV"What do you mean by that? I didn't know you had a brother." I was dumbfounded. My heart skips two beats at a time."Not literally. We are all brothers. In our training that is." He pulled me back effortlessly then adjusted his glasses. My cheeks blushed bright red while I tried to wrap my head around the current situation."But in your company, aren't you all trained to be proper good guys?""Hmm, yes we are. That's why something seems to be wrong.""Which is?" I tilted my head up slightly to look at the man's luxurious lips in front of me. He looked like a temptation I mustn't delve into. "He seems to be behaving in the wrong manner. Master would have never approved this." "Can you talk to your master? Maybe he can do something about it. I'm scared." The images of the man with a lewd smile on his face came rushing back and I shivered.It seems he noticed me shivering and he pulled me closer."I can't talk to my master for now which means I'll have to protect you for a
Mason's POVI walked out of the store. I was told she was here but it turned out to be a lie or maybe she left after all. My eyes had obvious eye bags under them as I've been running around the city since the day before without getting any rest. I called her phone for the umpteenth time but I got the same reply. The line wasn't available.I raised my hand to rub my face as I stood in front of the store with a sigh escaping my lips. I could feel the cool air hit my suited up body but it didn't seem to relieve the stress and it seemed every route was just another way of letting myself down. I should better go back to the crazy couple. That's my last option and they might know where she is.I walked back to the car and opened the driver seat to get in as I've sent the driver home already. I was the only one roaming the dead silent street so early in the morning. After driving for five minutes, I got to the familiar company once again and I brought one leg out of the car as I saw workers
