In a remote village, surrounded by mountains covered in shrubs. It was a beautiful sight to behold but it was so hidden that people barely knew of its existence. A little twelve-year-old girl ran, dressed in a simple countryside dress. She ran straight to a cluster of bushes and soon, came into a clearing.

  "Mother! Mother!" She yelled as she ran.

  "Don't give your father and me a heart attack, Gwen. What is it? And I have warned you several times to stop running!" A woman who was working on a large garden scolded the little girl who panted heavily.

A man stepped in line with the woman. They are both in their late fifties. "What is wrong, Gwen?"

For Gwen to run a long distance to the farm, it had to be something super important. "Anna... Anna is awake."

The couple who were ready to return to work halted suddenly.

The woman frowned, “If this is your way to make me come home to keep you company, I’m really going to puni

    Malcolm strode into the house after a tiring day at work. Kate had just finished setting up the table for dinner when he entered. Michelle had stopped cooking for a long while and in as much as he was fine with it, he missed her cooking. "Good evening master." She greeted politely. "Evening, Kate." He replied and made to leave when he suddenly paused and turned to look at the woman whose gaze was still on him. "Out with it, Kate." The woman trembled, "Sorry sir, it is the young master. He has been skipping his meals frequently recently. He locked himself in his room the whole day and have had nothing to eat." Malcolm frowned, "Does Michelle know about this?" "He refused to let her in too." Nodding slightly, Malcolm continued his journey upstairs but this time, he took a detour to his son's room, knocking politely. There was no answer at the other end. Malcolm clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, "You better op

    Michelle opened her eyes slowly and just as she expected, Doctor Alfred was there, talking in a hush tone with Malcolm. She made a little sound to notify them of her presence and almost immediately, Malcolm rushed to her side to help her sit up. "What happened?" She asked. "Alfred said you took the wrong medication. Is that true?"Michelle shivered for a brief second, "I'm sorry. I was only feeling pains in my head and I was so shocked at the doctor's news that I felt a massive pain in massive pain in my head so I took some medications. I didn't know they were the wrong ones. Please forgive me, dear." "Doctor's news? What news?" Malcolm asked, looking at Alfred who stood quietly at the side.Michelle lowered her head, "I'm pregnant, Malcolm. I'm sorry. I know this isn't the best time for this but..." She put on an extremely sad look.Minutes passed without a word from Malcolm. Those were the longest minute of Michelle's

  • Silent Scars   The Truth.

    Anna watched six months swing by slowly with her getting better and better at gardening. Niran, Keira, and of course, Gwen were extremely nice to her and treated her like family. In the end, she could only work extremely hard to earn them a trip to the city as a form of her appreciation.One day, while working in the orchard, she suddenly felt a dull pain in her stomach. At first, she had ignored it. It might be due to the fact that she hadn't eaten anything all day. She continued working, singing along with Gwen who was taking care of a rose plant she was growing. The atmosphere was quiet, except for the song from the duo, and harmonious. Not too far, Niran and his wife worked on some trees, leaving the two girls to themselves. Slowly, the pain increased, and just as she was about to scream in pain, she began to run out of breath. Her heart pounded loudly against her chest. This wasn't the end, was it? Gwen was too engrossed in her song to notice the other party had stopped

    Michelle walked into the house with a smug smile on her face. As expected, Malcolm wasn’t home yet. Bryan was having lunch at the dining table with the old hag of a cook, coaxing him at intervals to eat more. As she walked by, she and the little guy exchanged glares. She no longer glared. She was now the official Mistress of the Knight empire like she wanted, all thanks to Malcolm. She now had all the power in the world and there was no one who dared go against her. Malcolm loved her beyond imagination now and was willing to do anything for her. Perhaps, that was why she found it so easy to lie about her first pregnancy. After sleeping around for a while, she didn’t get pregnant as she had expected and so she arranged for a car to hit her and then feigned miscarriage. Luckily, she had managed to push herself to another hospital before Malcolm arrived with Doctor. Alfred else the big mouth would have exposed her on the spot. Now, she was willing to try again.

    After hours of trying to prepare the simplest possible dish, Michelle heaved a sigh of relief. Goddamnit! No one told her cooking a meal was this hard. Grabbing a disposable towel, she wiped off the layer of sweat that covered her face. All thanks to the internet else she might have been stuck in the kitchen for life. Damn that stupid stepsister of hers for spoiling the man with her food! Dishing out the meal in a bowl, she re-entered the dining room, putting on her brightest smile. "Sorry if I made you wait for too--" the rest of the sentence was swallowed down, followed by a loud crash of ceramics. Michelle was too shocked to care about the broken bowl or the food that had taken the effort to prepare. All she cared about now was the man sitting beside Malcolm.What the hell was Christian doing in Malcolm's house? Weren't the two brothers supposed to hate each other? "Hello, Michelle. Long time, no see." Christian greeted with a mischievous smile

    Christian grinned as his door opened stealthily and Michelle walked in, looking as sexy as ever in a night robe. "You blackmailing bastard!" She cursed.He smirked, "I knew you couldn't resist." "What do you want, Christian? Revenge? Is it what this is all about?"Christian laughed, "Revenge? What?! Are you kidding me? You and I know that what we had was only fun. We agreed not to attach anything else and I think I deserve an award for keeping my own end of the bargain." "Then why are you doing this to me? Malcolm can wake up anytime." Michelle was trying hard not to yell at the man in front of her.Christian licked his lower lips seductively, "Maybe because my body still can't get rid of your smell in my bed."Michelle opened her mouth in disbelief, "No way! There is no way I am sleeping with you."Christian shrugged, "Fine then. Maybe I could just forward another set of photo to your beloved husband. Like

    Michelle looked in the direction of the open door, her mouth wide open in shock. She even forgot she was naked! By the door, stood Malcolm with an extremely chilly aura. God! She was doomed! She turned to look at the cause of her problems but instead of being as shocked as her, he actually had a sly smile on his face. "Malcolm..." Michelle lacked what to say. She had been caught red-handed so she couldn't whip up a single lie. "You really don't know what is called bad timing, bro, do you?" Christian said with a satisfied look on his face. It was like he had done it on purpose to piss his brother off.Quickly, Michelle grabbed her shirt and flew out of the bed. She put it on and quickly approached the man with the vicious aura standing by the door but before she could reach out to touch him, he evaded her touch. "Darling, it wasn't my fault. Christian tried to force himself on me." She said, sounding grieved.The man didn't say

  • Silent Scars   Happily Ever After

    Lauren found herself in a big mansion. It was so big and beautiful that she couldn't help but admire it. Just as she was about to move about to admire it, something clung to her legs and when she turned, she saw Bryan. "Bryan?" She turned and carried him into her arms so naturally like he was a part of his life. She played around with him and just when she was getting tired, she heard a voice call out her name. Turning around, she saw no one. Was she just imagining it? It came again, this time, the voice was filled with longing and loneliness. "Who are you?" She asked. The voice came the third time and this time, a figure appeared by the door, slowly walking towards her. As the face came into light, a wave of recognition hit her and her tears began to flow freely as she ran into his arms. "Malcolm." She closed her eyes familiarizing herself with the feeling he brought and when she opened them, she was no longer in the beautiful mansion.

    ...Be downstairs in five minutes or forget about living...Warren flung his phone in fear and without waiting for his wife to question him, he scurried downstairs. If the voice he heard on the phone was real, then he was dead. He flew down the stairs to meet the 'visitor' who was seated comfortably on the sofa, sipping from a glass of blood-red wine. "Mr. Knight," Warren called out in respect. The man before him maybe his son-in-law but three was no way he was going to disrespect him. Malcolm finally looked at him, his eyes as icy as ever. "Start talking," Malcolm said.Warren was confused. What was the meaning of this? Was this man trying to play a prank?He smiled, "Is Mr. Knight trying to crack a joke?"Malcolm didn't reply. He kept looking at the giant clock at the other end of the room and after exactly five minutes, he threw a stack of documents at Warren. Realizing how serious the man before him was, Warren pick

    Malcolm leaned by the car, smoking a cigarette and staring into the space his son disappeared into. His subordinates looked confused but they dared not question him. They had been there for hours but instead of going after the little guy and bringing him back home, they stood they for close to an hour. Malcolm however, was ignorant of what his subordinates were thinking. He only stood there quietly, with a stick of burning cigarette between his fingers, feeling as nervous as ever. Just then, he heard Bryan scream for help and that was enough to jolt him out of whatever reverie he was in. Quickly, he rushed in and the sight that greeted him, made his blood boil. Lauren laid on the floor helplessly unconscious. Quickly, he dished out an order to call Dr. Alfred before carrying the frail girl into his arms to the car and driving her off to Dr. Alfred's hospital. Bryan ignored his father. His only attention was on his mother. The thought of her death made his heart wrench. He didn't wan

    Malcolm stood by Bryan's door, listening to him sulk all night with a sigh. How could he have not known? How could he have allowed himself to be deceived twice by the same person? Now, he had hurt everybody around him, including his son and most especially, Lauren. He wondered how meeting her again would feel like. He didn't even know where she was for crying out loud! Gradually pushing his weak body to his room, his face scrunched at the sight of it. The scent of that woman still lingered. In fact, it had overshadowed the scent of his Lauren and it disgusted him. He walked to the balcony, lighting a cigarette and drawing in the smoke like he was trying to find comfort in it. He chuckle as he choked. He didn't believe that a day would come when he of all people would feel pain. Maybe, karma was finally knocking at his doorstep. He chuckled wryly.Karma.Did he even believe in that word?Anna hummed a song as she took a morning shower. Perhaps, it w

    Michelle let go of Bryan's chin quickly and staggered backward, her eyes not leaving the figure at the door.Malcolm.How come? She didn't even hear his car drive in. She opened her mouth to speak but no words came. Bryan glared at her and then his father before slowly walking away to his room upstairs. His face, clearly showing how to hurt he was. "Welcome baby." Michelle greeted in the most natural voice ever, hoping Malcolm hadn't seen what had transpired earlier since Bryan had his back to him. Smiling she walked up to him and made to collect his briefcase but his firm hold on it told her he had clearly seen the scene earlier. Like an executioner approaching his victim, he took cold steps towards her, her mind skipping at each step he made.He flung the briefcase to one side of the sofa, "Start talking." He said in a calm voice.Huh?! " Baby I don't know what you are talking about." Michelle tried hard to maintain her innocent look despi

    Bryan stayed with Anna and her family, unwilling to return home. Anna tried every technique she could remember but the little guy was resolute. He wanted to stay with her. Anna panicked. It was getting pretty late. The sky was turning dark. She had successfully spent her whole day with the little guy but yet even now, he was ever reluctant to return to his parents. "How about this? We will meet at the lake tomorrow. Is that okay with you?" Anna negotiated, finding it funny that she was actually bargaining with a little chap.Bryan blinked, "Pinky promise?"Anna sighed. She hadn't meant her word but she really wasn't expecting him to hold her by her words. "If I Pinky swear, will you return home?"He pretended to be in deep thoughts and after a while, he looked up to her and nodded. "Fine then." She gave in, bringing her pinky finger close to the guy, and just as their Pinkys met, images began to fly through her head at a ridiculously

    Bryan sat almost lifelessly, starring straight into the lake. He looked downcast. Things have never been the same ever since his mother left. His father had become so into that woman that he no longer listened or care about him.Mommy... His heart cried out, Bryan has been a good boy. Please come back to little Bryan.He didn't feel like going home despite the fact that he knew guards would be on the search for him. Luckily, that woman didn't know a thing about this place. He frowned at the thought of her discovering his mother's most treasured place. It would be like a weed entering into a place where it isn't wanted. "Little One?"Bryan froze. Had he been imagining too much that he now heard her voice in his head? Tears welled in his eyes. But just when he concluded it was an illusion, a hand touched his shoulder and the voice came again. This time, he couldn't resist it. He turned around and at the sight of her, the tears that
