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
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
