"LET ME GO" she shouted half scared as the man dragged and shoved her on a bed, she presumed.
Obviously she presumed, she had a blindfold on from the moment she woke up.
"The sooner you stop fighting the better for you" he replied in a calm voice. His voice did something to her. She held her tongue for a minute, not because she was going to stop fighting HELL NO! But because of what his voice reminded her of!
His touch wasn't foreign neither his voice. WEIRD!
"Didn't think that would work" he chuckled.
"IT DIDN'T you dumbass pig" she shouted struggling as he laughed.
"Glad you are finding my misery funny" she growled.
"No wonder Alex wanted to feed you off to his Piranhas" he laughed.
Her entire body stilled at the thought. They wanted to kill her? but she couldn't hold her tongue now could she?
"Then what am I still doing here?" She sassed.
She could feel the tense in his posture even tho she couldn't see. It was getting hard to breath. She gasped when she felt his lips on her earlobe.
He was so quiet.
"Instead I decided you were mine to feed on!" He said in his sexy voice making her freeze.

"Are you okay?" Isabella's trans of thoughts broke as a smooth voice asked.Isabella looked up to a gorgeous pair of grey eyes looking down at her. He was so close that she could smell his lavender perfume with his minty breath on her face.She kept staring for him for a couple of moments before she suddenly backed away."I didn't mean to scare you, I was just wondering if you are okay?" He asked smoothly.She was mentally cursing herself for behaving like a stupid teenager. she was sure that he didn't give a reaction because she already looked quite worried but the slight smirk on his face was a clear indication that he had noticed that she was gawking at him.What the hell was he even doing here and asking if she was okay or not.He was missing from last 60 hours. he disappeared on the night two days ago and then didn't come back until today.Dexter McCoy was known for his indifference and ignorance to those around him.

I watched as the stars twinkled on the bright night. Alone standing there made me realise how much significant change had been there in my life in last two years. Life never got easy did it? Two years ago I was telling Dexter that we will get through everything and anything After almost believing that he was dead. And as I stood here all alone looking at the stars from this cliff and the water beneath this height I couldn't help but wonder about him. Everything was hopeless when we found each other there was no clue how we were going to get through it. Marco hadn't woken up in three years and there was no guarantee that he ever will And yet we were still clinging to the full little hope that someday he might and then the two of us could I have forever for ourselves. For ever was the most forbidden concept for humans. Humans at the end of the day as we are, are mortal and perishable. It took me back to memory of a seminar that I attended once, there we talked about humans mortality

" you already know about Marco and Maria and how the two of them were having a child. maria wanted Marco to leave the mafia but that wasn't really possible so instead he took her on a vacation to enjoy the news but something went horribly wrong and the wrong people got the clue that the two of them were spending their time on the island. so he was attacked, the attackers killed Maria and almost killed Marco until he went to coma. and that was the day before Thanksgiving, it was my father calling me ...commanding me to come back because the mafia was my responsibility now. obviously I did not want to go back but that does not change a thing because I was abducted back into the world but then they didn't want the news to go round that Marco was in coma, so I was made to look like Marco since we were pretty much identical and I was to manage mafia instead of him until he wakes up which he did not from last three years." He explained."But you are in power now right? so if you wa

"You are right I have a lot of explaining to do but let's start with introducing you to my brother that is my older step- brother Marco McCoy"Isabella settled patiently at the couch ready for him to explain his story although she would have found it much better if Dexter just sat beside her but maybe he was not just ready to face her yet so he sat on the barstools just beside his brother's bed, looking at him with care and love as he started explaining the story. The only think Isabella couldn't understand was how could Dexter look at him the way he did when Marco and his mother had been nothing but brutal to him."Jacob McCoy! the asshole and unfortunately my father Had tricked Marcos mother into marrying him for a peace treaty that could gain him the power but you already know of that story by Robert.And if you were standing long enough outside that hospital door you would know that my supposed mother is drug addict, which meant that she was ready to s

"Isabella" he said in a shocked voice."You have a lot of explaining to do" she exclaimed folding her hand in a protective manner around her torso. It was maybe that action that made his eyes zero on her now injured and bandaged arm and in a second the worry was shining in his eyes."What happened to your hand?" He asked concerned."I'll be the one asking questions now" She growled before walking inside and dragging him outside the hospital with his hand in hers."Where are we going?" he asked once they were outside."I don't know" she said as she turned to look at him.It was like she was finally looking at him all over again. That face was the guy she had loved immensely, The only difference was his electric blue eyes and the beard covering his face.She tried to utter something, anything. She wanted to shout at him demanding answers about why he lied about his own death and claimed to have killed himself and yet the shock of everyt

Another month had passed and Isabella was better at keeping up with the classes right now because her parents were forced into the college one month ago when she did not go to talk to the professor herself. To say Her mother was disappointed would be an understatement, she was madly furious and threw all sorts of colourful words Isabella's way before her father had to drag her mother away but he did not leave before giving Isabella a disappointed look.Luckily Sante and Lucas did not know anything about this whole crisis but they did call her up later. Lucas was just worried about her health but Sante looked like she could almost relate to what ever Isabella was going through and told her older sister to be the big Great sister she always has been and not to think a lot about mom, dad or anyone or being a disappointment because right now the only priority was her mental health and not anything that made her feel like a failure.Isabella felt much better after talking w

"Kill them all" Marco commanded in the cold voice before taking the lift up to his penthouse.He could still feel faint smell of her lingering into the penthouse although it sounded insane since it had been three months since she left. But maybe Marco was actually going insane after losing her.Marco knew that he could have just told her the truth, removed the blue contacts and everything would be as clear as crystal And yet only he knew that he could not. There was a reason why he was Marco now and that was deadly enough not to just overthrow him and his entire non-existent family but all the mafia syndicates in the world.The only way to keep everything under control was him being Marco. He couldn't even explain it in words the feeling he feels it is hard when she confessed that she had indeed loved him all those years and that she still did, But he also knew that she loved Dexter and he was no longer Dexter, he was Marco and there was no getting away from it.

Isabella sat quietly in the classroom looking outside the window."Miss Parker" A loud and stern voice made her stop her gazing towards the trees."Yes sir?" She answered mechanically."You may leave the class since you are so much more interested into what's going on outside." He answered annoyed.Isabella quietly picked up her bag and started walking out of the class unconcerned."I would like to have a talk with you after the class Miss Parker" The professor murmured before she left.It had been three months since she was kidnapped. Isabella found herself walking towards her dorm room unwilling to have any communication with the professor.In truth she was unwilling to have any communication with anyone except for two people. Unfortunately one of them was dead and another one had killed the first one.Just like Isabella had wanted Marco did not try to communicate with her even once after she left.

But there was only one thing Isabella could think of Dexter was dead and Marco was his bitter murderer stepbrother."Tell me he's lying! Tell me you didn't kill Maria. Tell me you didn't kill Dexter and you calling me a sweetheart was just a coincidence and not you keeping an eye on him and knowing it full well that that's what he called me" Isabella growled pulling Marco by his collar Begging him to say that all this that she had been told was a lie but he kept quite.Isabella couldn't help as the sobs wracked her body and she collapsed on the floor crying her heart out."You did it didn't you? You killed dexter, You killed my first love." She accused and something shifted in his eyes.She forcefully picked herself up from the ground as she caught his collar again shaking him furiously."You knew me all along. you knew all of this. you had been keeping an eye on Dexter and that is how... you knew me. that is how you knew everything.

"My my! a girl in Marco McCoy's bed. That's a sight I never thought I would see" he smirked looking at Isabella and she suddenly felt exposed as she pulled the blanket to her chest."Get out Robert before I pull your gut out!" Marco snarled. Isabella look at him concerned he was overpowered the man in front of him was pointing freaking gun at him and he still has the courage to throw a threat on his face."You have no manners whatsoever how to talk in front of such a beautiful lady do you?" He asked creepily and Isabella wished she could sank into the bed."Stop looking at her or I'll gorge your eyes out and feed them to My Sharks" Marco threatened."You sure possessive of this little one here, though I must say she is not half as beautiful as your last one. You remember her don't You Marco? Her belly swelled with your child such a happy day it was, until you broke into a fit of rage, What do you think is going to happen to this one here?" Robert asked.
