Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity The Hospital Scene
Linda’s POVThe journey to the hospital felt like an eternity, each bump in the road sending shockwaves of pain through my body. I clung to consciousness with all my might, desperate to ensure the safety of both myself and my unborn child. As we arrived at the hospital, I was swiftly wheeled into the emergency room, where a team of doctors and nurses sprang into action. Their voices blended together in a flurry of activity as they worked to stabilize me and assess the situation. Through the haze of pain and fear, I could feel the weight of uncertainty pressing down on me. What was causing these sudden, intense pains? And what did it mean for the health of my baby? As the medical team conducted tests and examinations, I tried to focus on breathing through the pain, clinging to the hope that everything would be alright. But deep down, a nagging sense of dread gnawed at my insides, threatening to consume me with fear. Hours passed in a blur of medical procedures and anxious waiting,
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Retinol
Linda’s POVI was back home, lying on the sofa that was in the living room. I had been discharged from the hospital and I was now trying to relax myself as was highly recommended. A TV show was on and it had my full attention. My parents were not home and it was just a few minutes past noon. I had eaten already and had done some light stretches. Ben also made me take a bunch of medication that the hospital had given me. But basically, no one was home, but me and a few workers. Although I had been trying to focus on the show that I was watching, my mind would keep being pushed to the fact that I knew that Chris’s father was alive. I kind of felt like I had the obligation to tell him, he was my husband and should know. But what if he did not know that he was not a true Kingston yet? What if he had no idea that his real father was out here somewhere, his existence being threatened by the very people who he grew up with? I swallowed, adjusting myself on the couch. But again, what if h
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity A Plan Filled With Risks
Linda’s POV“How is the shipment of Retinol going to help us? If anything, it’s going to help you,” I told him the truth. “And as I told you, I’m not granting any of your demands. You know how those people are, why should I poke them after what I have been through?” William sighed. “The shipment of Retinol is going to help me, yes. But in the long run, after I have gotten my program up and running and I’m out of hiding, it would help us all; all of us who have been scorched by the flames of those monsters.” I chuckled dryly. “Look, William. Too much is on the line, I can’t get myself involved.” A few seconds of silence passed and then he spoke, “Then you leave me with no choice, do you?” “What do you mean by that?” I was siting on the couch, I adjusted my weight on it and waited for his response. “Are you going to hurt me?” I dared to ask. Yeah, because I wanted to know. If he was going to be a danger to me or my unborn child, then I would have no choice but to get Fallon involved
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity My New Mission
Linda’s POVTransferring the money to the account of William was the easy part, it took me only a few minutes, not even more than five. He had the five million dollars and the next thing that I had to do was to get to the facility. I expected Chris to call concerning the sum of money that I had just transferred from the account but then I remembered that I had blocked him. And even if he was not, I would have not answered. When he had transferred a million dollars from the account, I did not question his decision, even though I had plans to do that when everything had cooled down and I returned to China. “Did you receive it?” I asked Willaim, holding the burner phone to my ear. “I just sent it, you should receive an alert, I don’t know.” “Yeah, yeah, I have it. Thank you so much, Linda. You have no idea what this means to me.” “What it means to us,” I corrected him. “Now all I have to do is to get to the facility.” “Hold up, did you not just come from the hospital?” He asked me,
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Risky Activities
Linda’s POVI was driving and the traffic was light. I actually was someone who loved driving, there was something about it that I just could not explain. I was following the direction from the burner phone, I typed it into the GPS of the car and it did not take me too long to reach where I was headed. I parked not far from the building and turned off the engine. Sitting there in silence, I offered up a silent prayer, that everything would go as planned before stepping out of the car with my Birkin bag and a confident attitude. After closing the door, I proceeded to walk towards the building. There was a guard standing at the door but he did not give me a second glance as I walked past him and into the lobby. I did not know where I was heading but I did know that I needed to talk with someone in charge. I walked up to the front desk, clearing my throat for the lady behind the desk to notice me. She seemed so engrossed in what she was doing on her computer. “Oh, I’m sorry,” She sa
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Green Light
Linda’s POVI walked into the office that I was led into by the curly-haired guard. My heart was racing and I was filled with my nerves, but I knew that I had to get this done, and I had already come way too far. Walking into the office, I could not help but glance around. The place was beautiful, especially the view that the floor-to-ceiling windows offered. The furniture looked like they were made to be in here, and the ceiling was so high. “Linda?” The woman behind the desk stood to her feet, walking from behind it and heading towards me even before I could sit. “I was informed that you were heading here by the receptionist.” She extended her hand for a handshake. I pushed aside my nerves, or at least decided to ignore them as I took her hand, shaking it firmly. “Nice to meet you,” I replied.“I don’t think we have met before.” She smiled, it was a beautiful and child-like one. “I’m Vicky Monet.” She broke the handshake. “So, what brings you here today?” She went back to her des
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity A Stalker?
Linda’s POVI was in the elevator, smiling that I had done what I needed to do, and my mission had been successful. The feeling of accomplishment was addicting and it already had me wanting to chase the next thing to do. But right now, all I would need to do would be to wait. When the elevator finally came to a stop, it made the sharp sound that most of them always made, the doors opened smoothly and I stepped out. As I walked out of the lobby, I flashed a smile at the lady behind the desk and she smiled back, even going as far as waving. I kind of felt like a celebrity. As soon as I stepped out of the building, the warmth of the day hit me. I started to walk towards my car but I noticed something strange, it was as if someone was watching me. I can’t tell you how I knew, but I just did. I could not brush the feeling off so what I did was glance around instead of opening the door of my car. And just like that, I caught the person. It was a guy in sunglasses, there was something d
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity The Bank Transfer
Chris’s POVI was driving from work in my Aston Martin, with the windows pulled down, the cool breeze of the night wooshing in. There was no traffic and the road was a bit clear. Mind you, it was after midnight. I had stayed a while at the office because it was my first day back after the scandal. There was a lot that I had to take care of, and now that most of those things were done, I was proud of myself. While I was at work, I had received a notification from the bank app but I had only glanced at it, hoping that when I got home, I would take a better look at it. My guess was that Linda had withdrew some money to spend on herself, and that was nothing to question. Pulling into the compound that led to my luxurious villa, I parked next to the other expensive cars that I owned. Most of the workers had gone home already, leaving only a few; the ones that worked for the nightshift. In my mind, this place was a ghost town. I mean people were here, but it was missing someone very imp

Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity The End
Linda’s POVWe managed to get out of the burning room, and I swear I think I got a few burns but the adrenaline drowned the pain out. We were headed out and had no idea where the exit was due to how much smoke and fire was assaulting us from almost everywhere.The pinching pain in my belly was growing and as much as I tried to brush it off, it was getting harder to do with each step that I took.Suddenly, the roof caved in and fell to the ground causing us to be separated by angry flames. I was stuck on the other side and Chris and the others were away from me.Fear filled me and I took a few careful steps away from the raging fire. “Help!” I exclaimed.“Keep calm, Linda. We will find a way to get to you, but for now, I would recommend that you keep moving.” He pointed towards the ceiling.When I looked up, I saw that the fire was eating it up, it could fall at any second. “Okay!” I said loudly, so I could be heard above all the commotion. When I turned around to start moving, I was
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Gasoline
Linda’s POVI had never been so scared in my life, the room held a tension that I could not describe. It felt like a nightmare, a real one.It felt like I was hallucinating all of this, but deep down, I knew that I was not. This was real, and it was something that I could not escape from. “Please, think about the baby,” I begged Mr. Kingston, tears flowing from my eyes and snot running down my nose.“Did you think of the baby before you and your friends decided to f*ici up my life?” He asked, dark humor dancing in his eyes.“Light them up,” he said, walking away. In seconds he was out of the room. Kirby flashed me a sad look before her features hardened again. She then walked out, the doctor guy following her.I sniffled and then sobbed out even more. I was beginning to smell gasoline, the smell was overwhelming. Sh*t, they were going to burn us up. My vision got blurred for a few seconds before I blinked the tears away, making it clear again.The door opened and I saw Kirby and th
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Looking To A Higher Power
Linda’s POVThe call went through but after a few rings, there was no answer. My heart was thumping in my chest and more tears threatened to spill from my eyes due to fear.“You better hope she answers, we are on a tight schedule,” Kirby warned me in a hard tone. I was praying for that too. “Call her again, maybe her phone is on Do Not Disturb,” I tried to find an explanation.“Hmm,” She mumbled in response before deciding to make the call again. This time, Fallon answers on the third ring.I let out a breath that I did not know I was holding. Kirby brought the phone close to me and put it on speakerphone. “This better be important, because I’m very busy right now,” Fallon said, it sounded like she was on a busy street because I could hear the sound of cars and people being people in the background. “It is,” I replied. “Fallon, I need your help; Chris and I have been kidnapped. The like went quiet for a few seconds and then she broke the silence. “Linda?” “Yes, Fallon, please…hur
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Fate Hates Me
Linda’s POVBeing bound was not a nice experience, the ropes were so tight that every time I would try to move, they would pinch my skin.But I had made my decision, I wanted to come out of here alive. I wanted my baby to come out of here alive, so I was going to do everything I was told to do no matter how messed up it would be.Kirby and the guy who I thought was a doctor soon walked out of the room, leaving me with the guy who was not too far from me.I knew it was a man because of his build but I could not tell who he was. He was wearing old and ragged clothes and seemed to be unconscious because his head was bent over in a weak way.“Are you okay?” I asked, attempting to see if he was awake even though I felt he was not. There was no reply. So I sighed and then glanced around the room, looking to see if I could find a way of escape, but it seemed like the only way to get out here was through the door.There were two windows in the room but both of them had iron bars that did not
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Captured
Linda’s POVThe car soon came to a stop, it had been a long ride. “Take her inside,” Kirby commanded and the Doctor did as he was asked. He opened the door and got down before gesturing that I do the same. I did not want to be hurt and did not want my baby to be hurt either so I did as he told me. I got down from the car and glanced around. It was now dark but the lights from on the property were impressively bright. Acres of land stretched from both sides that I looked at, and a huge stood not too far from me. It looked like a castle. It was stunning but it had a dark energy that caused my heart to skip a beat. I already knew who was behind this. I mean, I had my suspicions at first but they had now been confirmed. The thought of Chris entered my mind and I felt a heaviness that I could not ignore. Why did they have me tell him that I was on a street that we were miles away from? Had it been a way to get him alone so they could harm him? Oh my gosh, I did not know what I would do
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Meet Me In The Alley
Chris’s POVKidnapped? The word rang in my ear over and over, and I could barely hear a thing after she had said that. The car behind mine honked loudly and I was pulled out of my trance. “Clink Street? You said you’re being held at Clink Street?” I needed to make sure that I had heard her right. “Yes…” Her voice broke before a shudder followed shortly after. Then the call dropped. I tried to call but there was no answer. So I tried again; again and again. And with the cars honking behind me as I was parked at the traffic light, blocking their way, I knew that I had to put it all aside for only a few seconds. My mind raced as I tried to make sense of what had just happened. Lind, my wife, was kidnapped. The thought was incomprehensible, surreal. But I could not afford to dwell on it. I had to act, I had to act fast. With a deep breath, I refocused on the present. The light that was was still green, so I finally drove and ignored the road rage that I was getting as I pulled to the
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Uh-Oh
Linda’s POVMy heart skipped a beat, a cold fear gripping me as I realized something was terribly wrong. Panic surged within me, but I tried to keep my voice steady. “What do you mean, you lied?” I demanded, my voice trembling despite my efforts to remain calm. Dr. Adam’s smile faded, replaced by a chilling expression that sent shivers down my spine. “You, Linda,” He said softly, his ice blue eyes locking onto mine with unsettling intensity, “You’re not going to another room as you already can tell, you’re going to a little place called ‘Pay Back’.” I immediately jumped out of the wheelchair and tried to run for my life but I fell to the hard ground. We were in the parking place, basement level. “Help!” I screamed at the top of my lungs but it was like there was not even a soul there. As I hit the ground, pain shot through my body, but fear propelled me to my feet again. Adrenaline surged through my veins as I fought to escape, but Dr. Adam was quick to react. He grabbed my arm lik
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity I Lied, Linda
Linda’s POVI could barely speak, the pain overwhelming me as I doubled over on the bathroom floor. Every fiber of my being screamed with agony, and I feared for the safety of my unborn child. I already knew what it was, what was causing the pain. This was not my first rodeo, it was not the first time that it had happened. Aunt Maze and William rushed into the room, their expressions filled with alarm as they saw me writhing in pain. “What’s going on?” Aunt Maze exclaimed, her voice tinged with worry. I struggled to find the words amidst the agony that consumed me. “It’s the bullet…it’s moving and must be hitting one of my organs,” I managed to gasp out, tears stinging my eyes as another wave of pain washed over me. Fallon’s eyes widened with realization. “We need to get her to the hospital, now,” She said urgently, her voice plastered with panic. With her support, I managed to rise to my feet, the pain still stabbing at my abdomen with each step. Aunt Maze and William sprang int
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Trouble Will Find You
Linda’s POVMy heart skipped a beat at the revelation, the gravity of the situation sinking in. The Kingstons had vanished without a trace, the police had no way of knowing where they were. I wanted to ask how that was even possible. But I already knew the answer to that. Power, money, and influence. They had found a way to disappear because of who they were. “What do you mean disappeared?” Chris demanded, his voice smeared with urgency. “How could a prison transport vehicle just f*cking disappear?” Sergeant Thompson’s tone remained solemn. “We are still trying to ascertain the details, but it appears to have been a deliberate act. We suspect foul play.” “Of course, there was,” I heard Fallon say under her breath before letting out a string of curses. The car we were in was more of a van and we could all fit in easily. My mind raced with so many possibilities, each one more terrifying than the last. Had all of this been orchestrated from the start? Was he planning revenge right n
