VINCENT'S POV

My plan has to work this time. I have to make sure this goes well. I really cannot afford it to slip past my hands again. The encounter with that Alex of a fellow has already done a lot of damage to my brain. I can't focus. I can't breathe. I can't even think. The only image on my mind right now is Ariana. And I have to get to her as quickly as possible. I glance at the GPS on my phone again and then close my eyes before taking a deep breath. "God, this has to work very well. This has to."

I look outside the window of the car and sigh softly before turning my focus back to my phone again. "Why can't I focus? Why can't I just..." I pause for a while in my thoughts and rake my fingers through my hair, not caring that I am making it rough. "I can't even think anymore. She is the only thing on my mind right now, and I won't get peace of mind until I meet up with her and settle this going on within me. I can't let that fellow have her.

    VINCENT'S POV I am sure I am visibly shaking at the sight of anyone who sees me right now. I stop before the door and then look at it with my lips slightly apart trying to grasp any amount of air I can catch to take his deep down into my lungs and help me calm down. God, it's so freaking hard, I thought to myself and then lift my hands bringing it close to the door. I glance at the door knock, and then step back a little bit. Should I knock with my hand or with the door knock? I thought for a while and then shut my eyes, toying with my lips. This is the hardest decision I have ever made in my life. Just what the hell is going on? What has this young lady done to me? Why is it just so freaking hard to do the easiest thing which I usually do daily? To confront women. I finally shake my head and wipe away every negativity from my mind. I knock on the door slowly and then place my hands together, awaiting a reply. I wait and wait for a very long time but no reply comes. I frown a little

    VINCENT'S POV "Look, I just...," she waves her hand. "I've already told you, Vincent. I can't come back to you or whatever it is you're planning, okay? Just give it up. I have absolutely nothing more to do with you. You are my past and I definitely cannot return to that. Why can't you just give up? Please just give up on this, it is all pointless. I've already told you, why are you so determined to have what you can't have anymore? Why are you so determined to get back what you have pushed away? Just give it all up. It is impossible," she says, and I bite my lip, feeling the pain in my chest. "But I just..."And as I am about to open my mouth to say something, a childish voice suddenly calls from upstairs, and I frown a little. "What?"" Mom? Mom, are you there?" The noise continues, a soft childish voice calling from upstairs, and I strain my neck to find out where it's coming from, but I see nothing. I look at Ariana and Clara, noticing the nervousness and trembling in their deme

    ARIANA'S POVTHE NEXT MORNING "Ariana! Ariana!" Clara's voice suddenly jolts me up from my reverie, and I sit up briefly on the bed, looking at her with shock on my face as I blink my eyelids and glance around me, the shock overtaking my system. "What the hell is going on?" I mutter, my heart racing. "I was already getting to the most interesting part of my dream! Everything was working just fine. She just had to..." I trail off in my thoughts, clenching my face with frustration. "Oh God damn it, why does everything just have to be so unstable in this life?" I mutter, slapping my palm against my face. "What the hell do you want, Clara?" I ask with frustration, and she chuckles as she slowly approaches the table and drops something by the bedside table."Have you checked the time, young lady?" she asks. I tilt my head slowly to look at her with a raised eyebrow. "It's not like I care about the time. Why the hell do you have to disturb this sweet, beautiful dream I was already having?

"Hey, wait, take it easy," he says softly.I glare at him with all the frustration in me. "What exactly do you want?" I ask.He smiles softly. "Come on, can't you even give me the pleasure of welcoming me as your visitor?""You have no right to be welcomed into my home. You are a pest, the last time I can remember," I retort.He sighs before gazing down at the bouquet in his hands. "Okay, if you won't welcome me, would you at least receive this?" he extends the flowers towards me.I look at them in disbelief. "I definitely cannot accept this. Why is he even giving this to me?" I think to myself, biting my lip in frustration.After a long while, I shut my

I can't contain the extreme amount of rage boiling through my senses as I stand in front of him, glaring with all the furiousness in my body. Just what the hell is his problem?"Oh good God," I grind my teeth together as I continue to stare at him with all the furiousness within me.

That was so freaking loud. It felt as if my eardrums were about to explode. Who the hell had to guts to do that? I manage to lift my head and look at my surroundings while still placing my hand against my ear as if it could reduce the pain I am feeling. The images around me are a little bit blurry, and this makes me squint my eyelids for a little while, trying to process what I am looking at. "Welcome back to the land of the living Mr Vincent." A voice speaks up, and after a few minutes, the images are now a little bit clearer directly in front of me. The first image I see makes me frown immediately as I raise an eyebrow with shock not believing what I am looking at right now. "Flora?" I find myself saying softly but then she just rolls her eyes and looks away while scof

I am the only one that has the capability of helping you right now, Ariana, and what you just have to do is give me what I want."I shake my head with frustration." Okay, so can I ask a question."

She says, but then I turn my face to look at her and watch as she immediately shuts her mouth, gazing at the ground."I am sorry. I shouldn't have said that" she replies immediately, and I can tell she is feeling extreme guilt for actually losing Liam when he was directly under her watch. But the Lord knows I can't blame her. I wasn't expecting her to be so strong enough to overpower powerful-looking strong kidnappers like that.I just

I took a deep breath and shut the door quite loudly to grab her attention because it seemed like she didn't notice me stepping in. She jolts and almost loses her footing the moment she hears that as she looks at me, stepping in with wide eyes. Okay, her reaction right now is frightening me because I have never seen Clara look this frightened or paranoid to this extent in my life before. I chuckle and step into the living room, dropping my bag against the sofa. "Never you ever scare me like that," she says loudly and I raise an eyebrow at her." I'm sorry, I had to. You look like you were lost in the world for a while so I felt like bringing back your attention." I say and watch as she chuckles nervously as if... Okay, that laugh looked kind of forced. She didn't have the intention to laugh. Something is wrong with her.
