Guinevere POV

New York!

.

No matter how I tried to escape from him he knew where I was. I would like to run away from my past. The persona I had once was gone, turned into dust. But heck happened in people's lives and this one-of-a-kind heck I was now was the worst. Plus, the truth that Desmond was alive. I was glad to hear my childhood friend was alive...and Amy Leah, too.

They were indeed destined to be together no matter what. Even death could not come between them.

"Hey!"

"Hah?!" I screamed in shock when this annoying arrogant detective just knocked on the window of my car.

I had been here for fuck's sake I had no idea. Probably, 30 minutes or so. I glared at him while he flashed his annoying wide smile. I would like to just grind those pearly white teeth into pieces.

"Open the door!" I heard him shout while he kept banging the tinted window. I could pretend I wasn't here. "I know you're inside. I can see you!" or not.

As I rolled down the window, his annoying wink met my flar

    Three police cars arrived and one ambulance. Adam's wound on his shoulder was deep, blood rushed nonstop on his sleeve."Adam, are you all right?" I asked, panicking while my stares were fixed on him."I'll be okay. Don't worry, sweetheart!" he smiled at me. He was on the stretcher and the paramedics were preparing him for the emergency room. "Can you promise to be with me at the hospital?" he pouted. He still had the guts to joke around."I... I promise!" I stuttered. I watched the ambulance dash off with its siren loudly ringing on the road."Damn it! Franco Gonzales escaped!" I heard the captain rant. "Clear this up and go back to the station. Alert all units about his presence and oh!" I saw him whisper to one of his policemen. "Alert also our spies everywhere. That Franco must be put down in an instant. He just shot one of our kinds, I want him dead or alive!" the captain was furious."Ahm, Miss Basile. You need to come with us!" Celine, Adam's partner nudged me and I almost jump

    Desmond POV.."Fvck!" I almost tripped when I was putting on my pants which were scattered on the floor. Amy Leah woke up from my sudden cursing. "Sorry, baby. Go back to sleep!" I whispered and kissed her lips while she was still blinking her eyes."What's going on?" her voice was still hoarse. Could be because of her constant screaming last night? This woman screamed my name countless times while we were making love and I just couldn't get enough of her."Where are you going? Why are you in a hurry?" she asked knitting her eyebrows at me."Hmm! Martin called me. They're on their way here. He said Guinevere, my childhood friend called Donna earlier. Franco Gonzalez was in Hudson Valley. He shot Detective Fields in the shoulder!""What?!" she immediately sat up. "I'll come down with you!" she got off the bed and picked her thong up from the floor.I was just watching her sexily putting on her underwear and I felt my d*ck twitch when her breasts came into my view. I remembered how my

    It was set!All of us were flying back to New York. But we would leave Dante and Alden behind. They were going to safeguard Warren for Dakota's sake and tail him as well. Without the knowledge of these girls, we had an inkling that Emily had a connection with Divina and since Warren made a deal with the former, he, too was involved."First thing first, these ladies' safety. That includes Gwenny. How's the detective?" Martin was on the phone with his second hand, Luke. The latter was in New York along with Martin's men."Boss he was on the brink of death. If not for Gwenny, he could have died. She donated her blood to him and now they're both confined to the hospital!" I heard Luke answer. Martin's phone was on a speaker."All right. It's a good thing he's safe now. Guard them both, 24/7!" he ordered before he hung up. Then he glanced at me. "We're taking my plane. We're flying this evening!" he uttered.I raised my chin a bit and stared sternly at him. My hands were stretched to the e

    We landed at Martin's private port in the countryside in New York. As the attendant opened the passenger exit, the wind breeze welcomed our still droopy looks. Dakota grumbled and hugged her body tight while she glanced around. I bet her eyes were looking for Martin who never talked to her the entire flight.I flinched at my post when I heard Amy Leah sneeze. Immediately, I took off my jacket and gently hung it on her shoulders. Dakota glanced at us with a scornful look and sighed."I'm all right. I don't need your help!" Amy Leah aggressively whispered. She seriously took the punishment I gave her on the plane. She approached me many times but I ignored her plea."Stop being stubborn, Amy Leah. You'll catch a cold!" my voice was stern. She scowled at me then her deep sigh came next."Desmond!" we heard Martin's voice behind us and I turned around to face him. He just went out of the control room. "I've got a tip from our men. The patriarch of the Levine clan has been looking for you.

    "What brought you here?!" sarcastic and annoying question from a childhood friend I couldn't remember."Rumors say you're my best friend. But not even a tinge of our irritating past poked my mind!" I smirked back. His shoulder had a sling and a cast. He was leaning on the headboard of his bed while he watched the news on TV."Good to know. I tell you, you're a trouble. But glad to know you're alive. Where did you hide for one whole year?" he was speaking to me but his eyes were on the screen."The Levine Clan hid me~""Desmond!" when a crisp joyful voice from a woman startled both of us. I turned around to see who called me and saw an attractive young woman with blonde hair and flawless skin. Probably, she had the same age as Amy Leah.I was stunned when she suddenly ran toward me and hugged me tight. I glanced over my shoulder to ask who she was but I was rewarded with a furious stare instead."I've heard you lost your memory. I'm so glad you're alive, Des~""I already told him that.

    Amy Leah POV.."Desmond, is that you?" the clock ticked 12, it was now midnight and Desmond just got home. Where had he been?"My bad, sweetheart. It's my fault. I invited Martin to have some drinks!" he hoarsely uttered.I could see his silhouette from the mounted lamp on the wall. His legs wobbled when he walked which only meant- he was drunk!I turned on the lights and the whole wide living room lit up. My man's shirt was a mess. His hair which was always combed well was disheveled. I rushed to his side when he was about to fall on the floor. Good thing his palm pressed the edge of the table by the door."Desmond, are you all right?" my worried voice made him lift his head and he was staring at me with unfathomable eyes. "Des!"He cupped my face, his thumb gently touching my lips. "I'm sorry for everything I've done to you in the past!" he uttered softly, I could feel the pain in his heart but I couldn't understand what he was saying."Des, let's go to bed, sweetheart!"

    "Desmond, I thought you were working at home!" I immediately got my composure and strode toward him. I took a swift stare at the woman staring sternly at me. Martin's eyes were also fixed on me. These three were like, they were skinning me alive."Supposed to be but Martin told me you want to speak with him. Aren't you going to Dakota's flat?" Desmond's tone was flat and cold but beyond that I could feel rage."Been there and she told me that!" I shifted my glance at Martin. I needed to make a new lie. "Martin is blocked in their building. Is that true?" I questioned the mafia man.He cleared his throat first and nodded. The lady in the middle was stunned that her eyes would like to pop out."You're blocked? Martin, how could that be? Did that woman order the admin to do that!""FYI, her name is Dakota, missy!" I abruptly meddled glaring at her. She just stared back at me."Señorita, you might not remember me but we're friends.

    I drove my way to where I was raised. The nest where I spent my childhood life. Although they were only strings of stories from my ex-fiance Warren and my best friend Kota, coz I couldn't still recall most of my memories, I had these weird feelings enveloping me upon stopping in front of this huge iron gate. Emptiness, grief, bliss, rage, and love. Most were love... I shook my head and bobbed it up and down as outlines of doodled past clouded my thoughts."Mom! Dad!" I whispered in the air.My eyes were deeply shut. My temples were pounding, and my head began to hurt like hell. Flashes of memories kept raging at the back of my head. Damn! I just wanted to scream and freak out.Till...A knock on my car window cleared my messy thought. I stared at the uniformed man deeply staring at me through the tinted window. He was checking who was inside.I removed my sunglasses and slowly rolled down the screen. Beads of sweat began emerging on my forehead and my breathing was unstable. But what

    After three months! . . It's spring! Flowers were blooming everywhere in the garden. The shades of red, yellow, pink, and white color the beautiful landscape Iñigo and Elsa had created. A tribute for their loyalty and care for me and my parents. We were still at Desmond's villa. I could always go back to our mansion, but the feeling of emptiness was still there. I felt like that big house was no longer the same home where I was born and raised. It was totally a stranger to me. I was watching the morning sunshine from the balcony of our room when a gentle knock disturbed my senses. "Come in!" that could be Elsa. "Señorita, we're ready!" indeed it was her. "Yes, Elsa. I'm also ready. This is it!" I gladly told her as I hugged her tight. Elsa was like a mother to me. She saw me grow up and she was also a witness of our love with Desmond. Speaking of my man, he must be waiting for me now. "Let's go then!" Elsa uttered with a smile. As we sauntered downstairs, we saw I

    A soft warm peck on my lips made me moan as I opened my eyes and saw the person carrying me. I was like a baby lying on his lap. He was just staring at me, my man, worries were cleared on those mesmerizing orbs. "Hi?" I asked, a thin smile appeared on my face. "Hi!" he answered. "You scared me to death, you know that?!" then a sweet scolding. I chuckled at his cuteness, but he furrowed his brows at my response. "I'm sorry. How long was I asleep?" I asked not cutting my stares at him. "A couple of hours. Kota already left with Martin and Gwenny is with Adam. Everything is cleaned and fixed, sweetheart. We can go home now!" Desmond answered. I slowly got up as he gently held my back. "What about Donna, Elsa, Alden, and Dante?" I asked again worried something worse happened to them, especially Donna who had blood on the right side of her head when she shot Franco to death. "They're all fine. Donna is at the ward, resting. She's with the rest. Sweetheart, let's go home. You nee

  • Sweet Revenge   Chapter 109: In Critical Condition

    I let out my loudest scream for help when the door banged open, followed by the figure of the man I would admit scared to see. It was Franco! His face displayed the darkest night I had ever seen. His eyes were flaming red to my vision, and his sneer was devouring me little by little. If there was a real face of a monster, it was him. "Don't come any closer, Franco!" my shock was cut in by Iñigo's deep voice. I could see the face of a man prepared to die with him. "Iñigo?!" I whispered with my trembling voice. I held the hem of his shirt as he moved forward, trying to shield me from the monster. "Old man!" even Franco's voice was scary. "You think you can frighten me with that lamp you're holding?" he laughed maniacally. I just noticed now, Iñigo was gripping the lamp he grabbed from the side table. I grasped his shirt tight, wrinkling the fabric, there's no way we could survive this dawn. Till I heard a loud gunshot and saw Iñigo's shoulder bleeding. I screamed, calling his

    "You've failed me, Mrs. Amy Leah Zaborowski. You need to be punished!" he gritted his teeth while he was staring deeply at me. I shivered at the tension rising around us."Des, I- I""First, we have to get out of here!""But ~ But them!""Let Dante and the rest take care of the mess you've caused!" another sharp look before he pulled me up and led me to his car parked at the entrance.I glanced over my shoulder and saw Martin's men firing guns against Divina's goons. Screams and banging of furniture everywhere.It took us only an hour to arrive at Martin's villa. The way he maniacally drove his sports car was evidence that I was in complete trouble. He slammed the door after opening it ignoring that I was still inside."Desmond, let me explain!" my voice cracked as I followed him in quick stride. He wasn't just upset, he was mad.He aggressively turned around and yelled in my face. "You planned to deceive me by fucking me! You lied to me! What the heck were you thinking, Amy Leah?""D

    Amy Leah POV.Months had passed....Everything was set. My plan to enter the lion's den was final. Over the past few months that I recuperated, I also asked Desmond to help me with some self-defense and how to hold a gun. At first, he was hesitant but I finally managed to get his approval. I told him it was for my own safety. The bodyguards he hired were not enough for me."Sweetheart, are you sure about this? Don't you really need us?" my husband asked after he rolled down beside me. We just had finished our lovemaking and I took control which to his surprise and satisfaction, he had no idea I could do it. Guess those months of training and building my strength paid off."Baby, I'm just gonna talk to Divina. The spy I assigned to the mansion is 100% sure she crept there every night once in three months to visit my dad's study room. There must be something important in that room that she can't get rid of or can't bring to her wherever she's hiding!" I confidently told him."All righ

    "Ams, about that case, I can't help you anymore. I've been cut off!""I told you so!" Desmond interrupted making my eyes roll."Desmond, I need to speak with Adam alone, please!" I needed to get to the bottom of this. It was almost ten years and I couldn't wait for closure and justice. Justice for my father's name and George's death."No!" my husband urged."Desmond, please!""Amy Leah, you don't need to keep your talks with him a secret, okay? Remember, my parents were also victims of that fire...and my friend, Valerie!" the word Valerie came out only a whisper as he side-glanced at Adam who secretly took a glimpse of his reaction."Our best friend, Valerie!" Adam corrected."All right, no one wants to help me get closure. Then I guess I need to continue what I had originally planned!" I was losing my patience. I felt like I was left wandering alone in the dark wilderness."What?! No, Amy Leah. You almost got yourself killed!" Desmond uttered in a loud tone."Wait! I don't follow. Wh
