I was dressed in a beautiful gown courtesy of my husband. He had showered me with jewellery already. Some of them I haven't even worn once. I absently played with the necklace. I felt him near me. He looked very dressy and handsome as always."Are you dressed?", he asked."Yes", I said to him."Why are you worried?", he asked me.He is always good at reading people and especially me. I gave out a sigh. I didn't want to confess it to him. But I have no other choice."Tell me", he prodded."Should I go? I don't want Paisley to get mad", I told him."Why would she be mad?", he asked me.I was silent. I would rather forget that kiss. I didn't want to remember kissing anyone other than my husband."Listen he invited you and it was his choice. I'm. Sure he wouldn't do it if Paisley didn't consent to it. I don't think it was your fault that he tried to make a pass at you", said Dane. His eyes suppress the anger. I held his hands. It was a closed chapter for me."Let us go", I told him. He no
"Hey baby", said Dane kissing my shoulders. I moved away from him putting more distance between us so that I can think clearly."What happened?", he asked."Have you changed your mind?", I asked him."Regarding what?", he asked. His voice was calm. I knew he had an idea of my thoughts."About your wild manhunt for Enzo", I told him."You have no idea what you are talking about", he said."On the contrary, I know exactly what I'm saying. You can't do it", I said as an ultimatum."I will do whatever to protect you", he said."You can't protect me by doing illegal things", I said."I'm not doing anything illegal", he said."Not at the moment but you will soon. I know it", I told him."Ziva I will only eliminate Enzo. The law will thank me for that", he said."No, you are mad if you think you can escape from the death penalty by killing someone. They don't care who you kill. It will only matter that you ordered him to be killed", I said."You need some rest. We will talk in the morning",
"Mr Wellington hadn't come home yet", said Fathima.Her disapproval was very much clear but I had no response. What will I say? I banned my husband from the bedroom. I won't talk to him until he puts behind his ridiculous plan of killing Enzo. It is better if I don't say anything to Fathima she won't understand. She hardly sees anything past her blinding loyalty to Dane anyways.Speaking of Dane he avoids me just as I avoid him. For him, it is very easy but for me, it is very difficult. He works more at the office. I'm sure his already soaring profits might have skyrocketed post our fight. Jake called me once or twice but I didn't pick up. I don't know whether the bounty was already out or not. I haven't asked him yet. I'm afraid that I don't want the answer.My day and night are filled with reruns of Bachelor just so I could punish myself. I wanted to watch all the bad choices contestants make and get some form of sick pleasure. For them, it would be easy to correct it in the next epi
"I gotta go my girl needs me", said she.Was she going to leave me and Dane alone? How am I supposed to keep my distance when he sits so close to me? I had no idea. I lifted my head and peered at him. He was watching me as though he is guarding me. I don't think I deserve this level of protectiveness from anyone. I'm not that special but looking into my eyes I somehow feel like I'm very special."Did I ruin your girl time with Charlie?", he asked me."No you didn't", I answered him. It had been days since I haven't talked to him. Did he miss me at all?"Ziva I don't blame you. You are too good for me. I know you could never love a murderer", he said calmly."You don't understand. I will love you for ever. It wouldn't matter what you do. But you will end up in prison I'm trying to save you", I told him."You saved me already Ziva", he said."It is the other way around Dane," I corrected him. He took my hands and placed a gentle kiss on it. I felt tears running from my face."I haven't
He was very much silent while he listened to the call. This made me more tense. What has happened now? Was Enzo causing us any trouble? It could be even a ransom call. He got out of bed and got into a wheelchair. I sprang from the bed. Why was he hiding it from me?"Dane tell me what happened?", I asked but he wheeled away from me.My temper flew and I followed him. I was so angry that I could curse him for not telling me. I was afraid that he had indeed sent out a bounty demanding Enzo's head. Maybe Enzo wants his revenge. He put on the television much to my shock. Does he want to watch TV right now? Was he out of his fucking mind? He scrolled through channels and stopped when he got to a news channel. I saw a picture of A corpse blurred. I think it was missing a head. I saw cops everywhere. The headline read as notorious gangster Enzo is dead in an encounter with cops. I pressed my hand to my mouth. What the fuck? Enzo is dead. This means we didn't have to live in fear anymore."I'm
Finally, I was happy and content. Dane was given back to me. I would love to thank God for his intervention there is no other way I could refer to the death of the gangster that kidnapped and put me in trauma. I had even begun therapy because I had found some relief in talking about my issues and so far I was diagnosed with everything. First, it was PTSD then there was anxiety which I always had maybe I should thank Ella for that. I'm also being diagnosed with mild depression as a result of every bad thing that happens to me. But so far there is no medication so it is not that bad.Dane had started going to his therapy sessions too. It was mainly to make me feel happy and wholesome. I was so happy already even if he couldn't walk I'm satisfied with his ability to move his legs around. So what if he can't walk? He can do everything and he is the most active guy I had seen.Jake had come back finally we are expecting him for a non-formal dinner tonight. His parents too are in a celebrat
"Your phone", I said to him."Thanks", he said nervously. I knew something was off straight away."I should leave now. I need to be somewhere early in the morning", I said to him."OK see you later", said Dane with a wave.Dane left the room because it was time for his ice bath. He insists to do it alone. He said he didn't want to be reminded of the fact he was physically challenged every time. I respected his decision."Jake can I ask you something?", I asked him making sure Dane had left."What is it?", he asked with a friendly smile."I want to ask you are you happy with her?", I asked him."Yes", he said without missing a beat."I don't understand. I thought you hated her", I told him unable to hide the fact that I already know who his mysterious girlfriend was."So you know?", he asked with a raised eyebrow."I saw her calling you", I told him."I'm sorry Ziva. But it is my life", said Jake."You were always fighting and you could never see her eye to eye. This huge shift I don't
I think there is a chance a deep friendship would be broken today. There is no going back if Dane had said something to Jake regarding Heidi. I knew Jake was pretty serious and wouldn't hear anything against her unfortunately even if it was the truth. I wondered how could he simply fall for her. Hadn't he known how evil she can become? I still got goosebumps thinking of that day when I caught her trying to seduce my husband. If I hadn't stopped her in between I would have lost Dane forever. She could have hurt us deeper than ever before.I jumped when I saw Dane coming into the room. He was so early today. I wonder whether he confronted Jake about her. If that is the case I was sure that he would have caused a great scene what with Jake's stubbornness irrespective of what she did."Did you talk to Jake?", I asked him without a preamble.He was silent. I knew I had done a great mistake by admitting the truth to Dane. I knew Jake might have hated me for that. But what else I could have
