Mark!" Leia whines as she pushes him away from her.

She glares at Mark, who was sitting there with a mischievous grin.

"Common tell me!." She yells, fidgeting against the pillows.

"No~," he says in a single voice.

"Mark, if you don't tell me now, I will take off my bandages and strangle you with them." She says solemnly, her hands tightening on the said wrappings on her hands. Mark snorts. "Sure you will."

The woman's Expression didn't change, as she stared blankly at his face. There was a certain darkness in her eyes. It was eerie and reminded him of the way Leia looked at him when she still had her memories.

Like she was one step away from ripping out his throat with her teeth.

' she's looking at me like she wants to kill me.' Mark wonders, his gaze still lost in her dark pools.

It sent a shiver down my spine, but he ignored this, thinking it was probably a fluke.

'She's just looking at me like that because she's annoyed with my games. Maybe I should tell her just a little bit!.' h

    "What did you say?." Leia feels faint as she stares at the male. Mark shrugs, an innocent expression on his handsome face."I said I want to help you today.""You w-want to." She starts slowly, looking like she has a problem processing what the man said. "Help me-." She continues. Mark nods, a small grin on his face."Yes. I want to help you."

    "somewhere I've always planned to go?" Leia repeats, she can't help but rack her brain throughly to remember if such a place every existed in her memory. "I'm not sure, do you have somewhere in mind?" She asks back staring at Mark who's finding her in the nightdress quite appealing to his eyes. Mark stares blankly at her, nodding like a puppet as he hands her a magazine, but the magazine lands on Leia's thighs and she stares embarrassed. "Oh, I forgot," Mark says as he snaps his fingers, "you can flip through the pages," he tells Leia who' turns away pouting. Mark's fingers trace down Leia's face as he tucks a strand of her hair behind her ears and cups her cheek with one hand. "Aren't you cute when you're angry," he says to her. With a chuckle he moves Leia downwards quite gently and climbs up the bed. He sits with Leia in between his legs and he holds out the book for her. "I bought this on my way back," he tells her. Leia stares at the cover of the magazine and turns aroun

    He couldn't wait any longer. He looks over at Leia's bed and heaves a heavy sigh, "She's asleep now but what will happen when she wakes up?" He questions himself. Mark is losing his senses as he stares at Leia in confusion, although he's made that call he's still not sure what the outcome would be. Would she remember him and all the things he's done to her, or would she not remember anything at all? Whatever the case was, Mark was most definitely not ready for the final results. "Is the car ready?" He questions one of his men at the door. "Yes sir, whenever you're ready," the man replies. Mark stares at the sleeping Leia, it's not even been half a day since he came back and now he'll be leaving once again. "Would you be going out sir? What are your orders?" The man asks.The room is silent for a bit, he shuts his eyes, listening to the silence as he gives his response, "postponed the meeting to one week, tell him, I'll be expecting some good news since and try to speed up the

    He could only laugh at the betrayal he's received. "We found your fingerprints on this gun, and from the investigation, this gun belongs to you, we also discovered a photo of you leaving the premises with some bloodied tools, we'll be taking you into custody," they tell him. Mark vividly recalls how little he felt that day. The press swarmed around him like flies, camera clicks with bright lights blinding his eyes, as they cry out to him with questions needing to be answered. "Mr Sky, did you commit murder?" They would ask. Their voice grows louder each minute as they push forward, even subduing the cops to hear what the almighty Sky had to say. Mark with his head down wonders to himself, "Have I been abandoned?"The answer, although obvious, is very difficult for him to admit and Mark stays quiet as the vehicle drives away. The first stage of Mark's hate was denial, no amount of words the lawyers said could convince him to disclose the identity of the killer. "With your order

    Filled with rage, and hate Mark began his plan to make his enemies crumble, there was only one person on his list that he had to destroy at this point. It wasn't the man who killed his parents, it wasn't his cousin who stole from him as he claims. It was the woman who abandoned him and put him in this wretched situation. If anything, Make craves to end her life after all the lies she's told him. His regret was falling for it in the hopes that perhaps he too could have that happiness and let go of the past. If it means he could settle down with her by his side, he was willing to believe everything she's ever said to him, his biggest downfall, the cause of his crumple was a simple word he's yearned for throughout his years. "I love you," a confession by a woman who simply mistook a crush for love. "You don't have to get too hasty, I don't mind waiting," the man says as he gets ready to return whence he came this time.

    In the quiet embrace of dawn, the first rays of sunlight filter through the curtains, gently nudging Leia from her slumber.Her nose wrinkles in annoyance as the light pierces through her closed lids.She nearly scowls when her messy hair is gently pulled by Mark who stands by her bedside, a sly smile tugging at the corners of his lips."Leia?.' he says with a cheery voice. The woman feels like using her pillow to smother him. No one should be that happy before noon. It's very offensive to Leia's early-morning sensibilities.The Man, completely indifferent to Leia's murderous intent, continues to tug at her hair. "Come on!." He says with a childish pout. "Wake up, sleepyhead," he coaxes in a sing-song voice, the words a lilting melody in the tranquil room.He tugs again and this time the woman finally moves.Leia groans, her brow furrowing as she opens her eyes. She immediately shuts them back when they are assaulted by the light."It's too bright!." She hisses. The man rolls his eye

What if..."Mark sighs, the action causing the woman to trail off. The man gives her a gentle look before leaning down.Her breath hitches when Mark's fingers brushed against her cheek, his touch gentle yet reassuring. "Leia, I promise it'll help. Trust me."Under the intensity of his dark eyes, Leia could hardly refuse.With a resigned sigh, Leia relents, her fingers wrapping around the pill bottle as she casts a hesitant glance at Mark. "Fine. But only because you insist."Mark gives her a small huff of laughter."I very much insist." He says with a little wink before retracting his arm and straightening.Leia gives him an incredulous scoff before popping open the bottle."You should be more grateful then." She says ruefully before shaking out one pill."Yes, yes. I'm very grateful to Queen Leia." Mark says faux seriously as

    Her words sent a pang through Mark's heart. He wasn't shocked at the bitter feeling that followed it.'So you were that unhappy.' Mark thinks angrily as he stares at the crying woman with calm eyes.It was true that Leia was unhappy and the person who had caused that misery was the one she was pouring her heart out to now.If she even had an inkling of what he had done in the past for his revenge, Leia would certainly kill herself first before being vulnerable with him.This vulnerability was an addicting feeling and Mark couldn't get enough of it.The man's grip on her hand tightens, his eyes filled with false empathy. "Leia, you don't have to remember those painful moments. What matters is that we've come through it all, and we're here now. We've built something beautiful despite the hardships." He says, the lies slipping smoothly off his tongue.Leia nods slowly, wiping away her tears with the back of her hand."Yeah.." she says with a small sniff. She takes a deep breath before sp

The atmosphere seemed to close in around them, as if walls were pressing in on them, bearing witness to the tragedy that had unfolded.Amidst her heart-wrenching sobs, Leia's tear-blurred eyes rose to meet the gaze of the man who had just tried to take her life. 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. He pointed the gun at her once more, his voice laced with a chilling determination."Second time's a charm," he hissed, his finger tightening on the trigger.Leia's world seemed to freeze at that moment. She closed her eyes, expecting the deafening gunshot to be the last sound she would ever hear. Death felt imminent, a crushing weight that pressed upon her chest.But then, the sound she heard was not the gunshot sh

    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. Kasen helped her press her back against t

    Mark's eyes cracked open slowly, adjusting to the sterile, white surroundings of the hospital room. His head throbbed with pain, and every movement sent waves of discomfort through his body. He tried to remember how he had ended up here, but the events leading to this moment were a blur.As his vision cleared, Mark noticed two police officers standing by his bedside, their faces stern and unwavering. They were ready to question him, to unravel the web of events that had led to this tumultuous situation.Before they could begin their interrogation, the door to the hospital room swung open, and Kasen entered, his expression sombre. He walked over to the police officers and said something in a hushed tone. They nodded and reluctantly left the room, leaving Mark alone with Kasen.Mark tried to sit up, but the pain in his body made him wince. "Kasen, what's going on?"Kasen pulled up a chair and sat down, his gaze fixed on Mark. "I'll just talk to the inspector, it won't take long," he sai

    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!" She yelled back, hoping to deter him."Face me you coward!" He spat, his voice laced with anger."No!" She replied, her tone m

    Mark and Leia had been running for what felt like hours, their breaths ragged and their hearts pounding. They had stumbled upon this cave in a desperate bid to escape the clutches of the big boss and his relentless henchmen. Now, as Leia rested her back against the damp, rocky wall, her chest heaved with exertion. The darkness of the cave enveloped them, offering a sliver of safety in an otherwise perilous situation.Outside, the big boss had ordered his patrol to scour the area, leaving no stone unturned in their search for his fugitives. 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. "Let me go, let me go right now you madman, just you wait, I'll kill you as soon as I get away from here!" She promises Mark much to his fear. He couldn't possibly believe the words coming out of her mouth and feared the worst. Now she's become dangerous to both herself and himself.

    It took more than a while to calm Leia down as she would continuously try to wiggle her way out until she was finally subdued by Mark and fell asleep. 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. "Boss," his subordinate called for his attention. Mark couldn't help but feel irritated and yet he couldn't simply ignore their request as he knows that there's more to this interruption. With a heavy sigh he rises from the chair and follows them outside to hear what it is that they have to say. His men look rather worries while he was getting angry and the mere thought that they refuse to speak after calling him out. "Are you mute, hurry up and say something," he yells at them.

    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.
