The man in question straightens from his reclining position, slowly getting to his feet from the chaise lounge he was sitting in.

It's already noon and Mark wants to see Leia. It's ridiculous how much he can Miss someone who is barely five kilometres away.

'She's just in therapy. Get a grip on yourself.' But even as he scolds himself he still heads to the entrance that would lead him to where Leia and her doctor are.

Leia's therapy session is taking place in a tranquil room overlooking the breathtaking expanse of the Himalayas.

The soft sound of flowing water from an indoor fountain created a soothing ambience.

Mark takes a second to bask in the serenity of it all before moving towards Leia who is beside the pool.

He hides himself behind one of the pillars and drinks his fill of the woman.

His eyes rake over her bathing suit-clad frame and linger on her wet

    Chapter"Leia.." Mark whispers with dread filling his being. He can do nothing but watch as the woman drags her fingers over the dress, now free of the extra lace that hid its resemblance to her former gown.Mark felt a knot form in his stomach. He had hoped that Leia's amnesia was a clean slate, a chance for them to build new memories together. To let her forget her last and keep her here with him. But now, with her memories resurfacing in this unexpected way, he knew that the past could come crashing back into their present.He swallows, his throat feeling suddenly parched."Hgn.."He is broken out of his thoughts when he hears the sound of a tiny whimper.

    A day later, Mark sat Leia down in their living room, holding her hands gently. "Leia, I have something to tell you."She looks at him, a mix of curiosity and concern in her eyes. "What is it, Mark?"He took a deep breath, trying to steady his nerves. "I noticed that your wedding dress has a few more issues. So I sent it in for some minor amendments," he explains with a small frown.Leia gapes at him in surprise. "What! What happened to my wedding dress?!." She yells with a strained voice.Mark brushes his thumb across her knuckles to calm her down."It's nothing much. Just a few loose threads." He assures her.Leia breathes a sigh of relief at this, her eyes falling shut."Oh thank goodness. I'm so glad it's not that big of an issue." She says before looking up at the man, an impish grin on her face."For a moment there I thought my dress was destroyed." She says with a small chuckle.Mark feels his back stiffen in apprehension even as he forces himself to chuckle at her words."Well

    "She's almost seven months pregnant! How could she escape from full-grown men!." Mark shouts into the phone, his rage increasing at the incompetence of his staff."We- we-were so very sorry sir." The voice on the line stammers. Mark was sure that the man was probably pissing himself where he stands.Mark scoffs In derision. "You will be." He promises darkly before hanging up. He presses his hands to his aching temple, his thoughts whirling around in his brain at breakneck speed.Rebecca has escaped and at this rate, he knows that she won't come back and by now it's probably too late for an abortion."Damnit!." He curses before throwing his phone at the wall. The screen cracks before breaking into little pieces but he gives no thought to that right now.His mind races as he tries to process the implications of the information. The maid they had been searching for, the one who had abruptly left after Leia's accident, was still pregnant and on the run. Mark's heart sank at the realisati

    Leia knows that something is wrong from the moment Mark steps into the room.She swallows as she takes a look at his strained expression.Leia's heart races as Mark silently approaches her. "Leia," he begins, his voice lacking the confidence he was known for, "I know we were supposed to get married in four days, but I think it would be better if we pushed the wedding forward a bit."Leia's eyes widened in surprise. "Pushed forward? But why, Mark? Everything's been planned for today." She says incredulously.Mark takes a deep breath, looking into her eyes earnestly. "Leia, I've been talking to the doctors, and they think it would be better for you to take your medicine a little longer before the wedding. It's for your good. We want you to feel your best on our special day." He says gently, his hand lifting to brush along her cheek.Leia's shoulders slump slightly at the thought of her medication. She understood Mark's concern but She didn't see he needed to take it. To her, she was p

    The doctor's voice on the other end of the line was calm, but Mark sensed a hint of confusion. "I see. This is certainly unusual. Her subconscious mind may be resisting the medication, causing these episodes. Her emotional state might be exacerbating the situation."Mark's frustration is palpable. "But doctor, She's been taking the medication as prescribed. How can her subconscious be fighting it?"The doctor sighs softly, if a bit shakily. "Sometimes, the mind can react in unexpected ways. Stress, anxiety, and even subconscious fears can play a role. I know this is incredibly challenging, but we might need to adjust the treatment plan."Mark's patience was wearing thin. "I can't see her like this anymore, doctor. I can't keep watching her suffer. We were supposed to get married today, and now I don't even know when she'll be well enough for that."There was a pause on the other end of the line, and the doctor's tone shifted.

    "We can't find her sir, we've searched the whole building," Mark's men say as they gather around him. His eyes twitch from irritation but for a while, he just stands there, staring in complete amazement while he rubs his chin. Mark takes a couple of steps forward, approaching the man who had delivered the unsatisfying report and pulls out a gun pointing at his head. His men backs away unwilling to interfere out of fear and dedication, but then he holds the trigger ready to pull. "Anyone else think you can't find her?"

It was the big boss, his face bruised and battered, his trousers stained with blood. He regarded Leia with disdain, his lip curled into a cruel sneer.

    Kasen and Leia stood in the dimly lit, small brick-walled room, their hearts pounding in their chests. The air was thick with tension, and the sound of trickling water echoed through the enclosed space, a chilling reminder of their predicament. Leia's eyes darted around, desperately searching for an escape route, but there were no windows, no doors, just cold, damp stone walls that seemed to be closing in on them. Her breaths came in short, panicked gasps as the water steadily crept up from cracks. She couldn't swim, and the rising water terrified her. Tears welled up in her eyes, and she began to cry. She sniffled a sob, trying to control her emotions. Kasen, determined to keep them both calm, reached out and gently touched Leia's shoulder. "Hey, Leia, listen to me," he said, his voice steady but laced with concern. "We need to stay calm and think this through. Panicking won't help us." Leia nodded, though her tears continued to flow.

    The smell of gunpowder filled the air as bullets continue to whisk past them. Opal dove into the ground, escaping some shots merely by luck. "Retreat! Take cover!" She yelled, realising that in their current position, they could stand toe to toe against Mark's men.As they rushed backwards, a bullet sunk into the shoulders of one of Opal's men, ten impact making him to fall face down and roll. Opal quickly hopped over a rock, finding cover behind it as she rested her back against it, her chest heaving with exhaustion. She retrieved her gun and reloaded it, holding it tight with both her arms as she prepared for anything."Opal! I'm here, come out and fucking face me!" His voice resonated through the air, meeting her ears. He sounded like he was close, she wasn't sure how close, but close enough. Closer than he should be.She takes in a deep breath, "Fuck off!"

The tension in the cave was palpable as Mark and Leia strained their ears for any signs of pursuit."So what now?" Leia asked. "They're after us."Mark sighed, knowing that what she was saying was true. "I don't know. Maybe we can wait it out in this cave," he replied.Just then, Mark's sharp eyes caught a flicker of movement at the cave entrance. He nudged Leia, and she froze, her fear mirroring the uncertainty in his eyes. The henchman who had jus

    Leia's breath could hardly breathe as she gasps for air repeatedly, her resistance knows no bounds as Mark couldn't help but fear, still he couldn't let her loose because he knows what she's capable off. She struggles against the restraints binding her to the ornate bed frame to the point where she had begun to bleed due to the injury on her wrist. Mark couldn't help but feel guilty as he found no one but himself responsible for her behaviour. Her eyes flickered with a wild, haunted look as they darted around the dimly lit room.

Everything looked like hell for Mark wouldn't couldn't help but hope for the best to happen as it pained him to see Leia in this pathetic state, so much so that he refused to leave her bedside when she fell asleep.Everything was a disaster at this point and he just couldn't take it anymore.

    Despite his happiness, Mark's worst fears were about to become a reality. He dashed through the hallway, shoving whoever dared get in his way as he hurried for Leia's room."Is she okay, how is she, is she in good shape, is it something serious?" Mark suddenly questions in a rush. He couldn't wait, especially not after waiting two days already for either of the ladies to wake up. His joy at the moment knows no bounds as he hurries to enter into the bedroom, the only stopping him is the doctor in his way. "Should I kill him?" Mark questions himself while he stares at the frightened woman who seems to repeatedly block each route he tries to take. "For god sake Mr. Sky you have to calm down," the woman yells. He couldn't possibly believe his eyes and eyes as he stared at the puny woman who seemed to lack a lot more flesh than Leia had. "It'll just take one twist and she'd probably pass on," he tells himself as she stares at her, examining what to do about this sudden disturbance.
