THE DON'S DESIRE Chapter 71 - MAKE IT OUT ALIVE
Tanya's POVI could swear that he was watching me. He probably thought that I didn't know, but it was obvious. I had seen the shadows move behind the door, and since there was nobody else in the house with me, I could tell that he was the one."What does he want now?" I asked myself internally, trying to figure out the matter. The chances were that he was going to try to keep me from leaving. Now that he was watching me like a hawk, that was the only reason he would come here after all. If he didn't care about it in the first place, then he would just let me go without coming even to say goodbye or anything like that.Not like he had actually come to say goodbye this time, I contemplated, looking around the place and making out opportunities for myself to glance at the door. It was impossible to see him from the angle that I was at now without him noticing that I was actually looking at him. I didn't want him to know that I had seen him, so I gave up on that idea.I focused on packing
THE DON'S DESIRE Chapter 72: FEELINGS
Rodrigo's POVIt was natural that I would fall asleep; that was the only thing that could keep me from thinking about her. At least, that's what I thought before it took me away. I found out, much to my dismay, that she haunted me in my sleep also. Only then it was much more scary, like a nightmare. All the things that I had done to her, the mean words that I had said to her, the way I had acted and kept on sending her away from me, kept on replaying in my mind, judging me for my sins."Surely I wasn't that terrible," I defended myself, trying to make sense of the scenes that kept on tormenting me. It was as if I was finally beginning to see through my actions, see them through her eyes at that."I have to get her back," I said, waking up from the sleep to realize that it was all a dream. I looked at the face of the clock on the wall and saw that it was already night, around 8:00 or maybe closer to 10. I couldn't tell because I was too lazy to look up and focus my eyes while doing so.
THE DON'S DESIRE Chapter 73: LOOK DEATH IN THE EYE
Tanya's POVI got away from the bus driver quite easily, so easily that I thought for once in my life I had lady luck on my side. It rarely happened that things would go exactly the way I planned, especially when it was a plan I had made without much thought.I continued running as fast as I could, taking the heavy bag with me. Finally, I had to stop; the load on me was too much."I should have probably had a destination in mind," I thought to myself as I looked around. I realized I was in the middle of nowhere. If I had a plan earlier, I might have stopped at a hotel or somewhere to stay for the night. Now, I had no idea where to go.I tried to recognize the place, looking around in confusion. It was strange; I could swear I had never been here before in my life. But it was night, and that could be why. There was a very good possibility that I actually knew exactly where I was now.I placed the location along with several others in my mind, trying to match it. It was almost impossibl
THE DON'S DESIRE Chapter 74: TORMENT
Tanya's POV"I'll tell you a secret," he said to me, smiling at me. It was perfect. I had nothing else to talk to him about, nowhere to continue the conversation to postpone the inevitable, which made it wonderful that he would tell me something instead, keeping the conversation flowing."I'd love to hear it," I said, a bit too excited before hearing the actual words and wanting to run away from him as fast as possible. I was in for a round of suffering if he actually got me."I'm a sadist," he said, giving me a sadistic smile.I looked around the place, wondering whether I could flee from there. We were not compatible, never. I was not a person who liked pain, never had been, and from what he was saying, he wanted to torture me."But you just told me that you are not interested in me," I said to him, taking a step forward. For once, his eyes widened when he saw that."Well, I think we are progressing," he said. At that instant, I realized what I had done because of what he had said.
THE DON'S DESIRE Chapter 75: I WANT HER
Tanya's POVNaturally, Rodrigo did no such thing. Begging was not his style. If he did, then he would not be Rodrigo, the proud man that I knew—or at least thought I knew. I would never have thought that he would act in the way he had, sending somebody to get me after allowing me to leave in the first place. It was as if he had decided to get rid of all his honor, everything he had left, in an instant.Even if he still had any honor left, to me at that moment, I despised him. I hated him even more, knowing that he wanted to get me still back to use me for his purposes after the man left.The situation continued like that for the next couple of seconds. The man was no doubt considering his options. He had his chance; he should take it. It was obvious what he should choose to do in the end, what he would do any second from now. But to my surprise, he turned around."I'm sorry," he said, giving an apology that was unreal to me as he walked away from the place, leaving the two of us alone
THE DON'S DESIRE Chapter 76: I WILL HAVE HER
Rodrigo's povI tried my best to find him, but he had suddenly disappeared. It was almost as if he had hidden off somewhere, very far away from his car. It was a wonder how he got out of it without me knowing about it in the first place. After all, I had been watching him closely for any signs of movement so that I could intercept him. I hopped out of my car after waiting for another couple of minutes. It was only now that it occurred to me that I had wasted that valuable time for nothing. It would have been better spent looking for him, as now there was a chance that he would do something to harm her in my absence. There were numerous turns. Streets were everywhere, confusing me. If I were to look through all of them on foot, I would take forever. I did not have that much time to find what I was looking for, so I got back in the car the next instant and started cruising around, looking for her in every street. Some of the streets were longer than I wanted them to be. That was the
THE DON'S DESIRE Chapter 77: MINE?
Tanya's POVIt was the most unexpected reconciliation for me, and being in his arms was more than I imagined. I felt a little grateful, but something in me was still uneasy."Come," he said. "Let's go home.""Home?" I said, thinking about the idea. I did not see it as a real home anymore; the memories that place held for me were not the best."I'm going," I said to him."Home?" he asked, looking hopeful."No," I said. "I want to be all by myself for a while.""What?" he asked, looking at me as if he did not understand. I gave him a rather bitter expression in return. "You are still not coming back?" he asked."Maybe," I said. "I might decide to change my mind later on. But first of all, I want to be by myself."I could clearly remember telling him that I loved him, and it was true. However, that was different from wanting to be with him. Maybe I would like that later, but now I wanted nothing more than peace. Anyhow, he was sure to treat me a little differently now that we had reconci
THE DON'S DESIRE Chapter 78
Rodrigo's POVI drove my car home as a sad feeling settled over me. My mission had failed ultimately, even though I had tried my best. She rejected me after I poured my heart out, but something about it seemed off.Maybe I still have a chance with her, I contemplated, knowing fully that I couldn't do without her for a long time. Just as I had confessed to her, I loved her and would not let her go. Although she had sent me away, she also said she loved me.Maybe she wants to give herself some time and distance from me before coming back, I thought, remembering that she had sent me away but did not seem to be angry at me anymore. With that hope in mind, I went into the house feeling slightly lighter. I could not imagine how I would spend the night without her, not knowing whether or not she was safe at the moment. But I knew that I had to. It was necessary for me because that might be the only way to get her back. Ultimately, she wanted a break from me, and as much as I hated it, I need
