"Why did you have to cancel her license?!" He starts after storming into Gabriel Davis' huge library inside his New York mansion after spending the day just looking after this old man's daughter.

"How is she?" He says looking at him through the spectacles hanging on his pointed nose.

"You freeze her accounts, took away the money that she earned by herself and now I'm learning that she actually is a doctor! A doctor whose license is taken away by her own father! Why are you doing this to your daughter, Gabriel?!"

"She used to like this mansion a lot when she was just a girl. Of course, she loves the house in London... The ranch in the countryside.. That girl."

"That girl is killing herself!" Vincent hits the top of his table with the handkerchief that is covered by her blood as he stopped the older man from talking about nonsense memories that he had obviously lost now after ruining the innocence of his own daughter.

Gabriel Davis darts his eyes on the bloody handkerchief in front of him and he can see how his jaws move as he grits his teeth.

"Do you even have an idea how your daughter is...?! How she is hating her life and wanting to just end it because of you interfering in it?"

Gabriel looks at the younger man before leaning his back on the comfortable swivel chair he is sitting at like he's just watching a TV show as he watch him rant and lecture him on how he should treat his own daughter.

"I can see that you care for her, Vincent..." He smiles drily as his eyes dart on the photo frame on top of his table.

Vincent didn't pay attention to where he's looking at and continues glaring at the older man. He is surely playing them both on his palms right now.

"But caring for her could actually make you weak, you should know that.. Your job is to tame her.."

"Hah! How exactly do you think that'd be possible?! You turned your daughter into a cheap thug giving herself away like she's just a candy and you expect me to tame her?!" Gabriel glares at him with that.

"To think that she's a doctor! Why, Gabriel?! Why are you destroying that girl's life?!"

"So you mean, getting you into the picture is me destroying her..?" He clasps his hands together right under his chin as he examines the younger man's persona.

He can feel the burning anger through his deep blue eyes that are glaring at him.

He can feel his hatred towards what Gabby is turning herself into.

"What makes you think that I am trapping myself into your bait??"

"Well it looks like it isn't just my bait that caught you..." He says referring to Vincent already feeling emotions and caring about his daughter.

"You're miserable.." Vincent whispers with so much hate under his breath before he turns around to leave.

"I'm transferring all my properties to Gabrielle's and your name in two weeks... Right after your marriage..."

Vincent stops in his tracks. His hands are shaking with pure anger and frustration.

Marriage.

God help him. He couldn't picture himself marrying Gabrielle. He feels for her and he's gradually siding with her now, but marriage is a totally different thing!

And hell will freeze but he doesn't think that brat will just follow the flow and say yes to her father's terms and conditions!

Gabrielle Ralph Davis is not someone to just nod at everything.

Tame her?!

He can't even fucking tame the raw emotions he's already starting to feel towards this whole or deal and he wants him to tame her?!

"If you think you can just make your daughter say yes to anything just because you freeze her account, think again Davis. Your daughter is not the one to just nod at anything," Vincent feels the older man walking slowly before he stops right beside him.

"I know that very well... and worry yourself not. She will.." Their eyes met fir a brief moment before Gabriel Davis walk past him smirking proudly as if he'd already won the bet.

Vincent couldn't do anything but put all his anger to his car. As if he was in a drag race, he drove around New York. Honking at every vehicle that is getting on his way to nowhere.

He's confused, frustrated, angry and worried..

Worried...

Something he never thought he would ever feel about this whole deal. Just months ago when his grandfather summoned him and told him about his supposed engagement to one if his comrade's daughter, he didn't really give a damn. It was during those dark hours in his life when he was told that a wife was chosen for him.

He didn't care whoever it might be. He was blinded by anger and power that he felt like he could just use whoever's daughter she may be to hold his dreams in his palm.

Yes, power, money and success were all important to him.

And if marrying even a princess like Fiona could get him to get a grip of those, he wouldn't care. Besides, it wasn't mentioned that he is not allowed to divorce the girl.

He could still get married to whoever he would want to marry after the game is over..that is if he would warnt to really ever get married.

Not that he never want to...

He did...

"Bullshit.!" He cursed out loud as he slams his palm on the horn of his car and turns the wheel to his right, overtaking a sports car in front of him.

He is frustrated. He doesn't want to marry that girl and yet he couldn't wait for the day...

"Fuck!" He couldn't and shouldn't feel this way towards her!

She's beautiful, alright.

She's so goddamn sexy, that's for sure.

But damn it! She's every dick's girl too! Again, he press hard on the horn as he accelerates his Porsche cayenne So, overtaking a few more cars in the highway of New York.

He knows very well that underneath that facade Gabrielle is showing to the world is a broken hearted girl that once had dreams... that once had cared about herself and the people around her.

He knows and witnessed that himself.

She is more than what meets the eye and that very fact makes him even more frustrated and alarmed.

He cares...

And he wants to unravel what is hidden behind that mask of her. Like a mad man who lost and finally found his way, Vincent found himself already walking back into Gabrielle's flat where he left her fast asleep after helping her treat her wounds. Its past 6 in the evening now.

He wouldn't admit it but he keeps on thinking if she'd already had dinner. It was before lunch when he'd found her in her father's office, a couple of hours later, she dozed off to sleep after taking some antibiotics for her wounds.

    The alcohol she was drowning herself into runs smoothly down her throat as she gulps the shot of tequila in one go. She is at the bar. Alone.Hating her life. Hating what she can't do. Hating everything that had broken and continuously breaking her apart. Her finger where a stick of cigarette lies in between moves in a circular motion around the rim of the newly served shot glass of tequila in front of her as her mind once again wanders off to the bitter part of her past.That day when her father announced that her mother is no longer with them.10 years ago..."Take a rest, Gab. I know you're tired and upset..." He said before turning to walk out of her hospital room."'Mom... Did she abandon me as well, like you?" She asked with her broken voice.

    Gabrielle yawns as she stretches her limbs in the middle of the comfortable bed she's lying on. She can feel the ray of light on her face but the breeze of air she can feel on her skin is too cold that she sluggishly pulls the blanket up to her neck to warm herself.Her eyes are still closed and she had no intention on opening them yet. If she were to choose, she'd rather just sleep and not wake up ever again.

So right now, all she wants is to just sleep and pray that when she wakes up, everything will be different.But fuck life, seriously, none of her prayers seem to be heard as she jolts in surprise as the kettle from somewhere in the room snoozes so loud."Argh!"

    Marching her way out of his flat, Gabrielle quickly pulls up the black dress from her knees up to cover her cold naked body as she heads to the door."Idiot!" she grits her teeth as her knuckles turn white clenching it into a fist. She can feel her face heating up because of anger. God! She doesn't usually feel this much anger towards another person to the point that she really wants to punch his face if not murder him."Breathe Gab..." she closes her eyes tightly as she inhales before grabbing her stilettos and briefly looking around for her pouch."Stupid idiot!" she grits her teeth again not finding anything around Vincent's living room.She's already on the verge of screaming and stomping her feet in frustration when she noticed his car keys hanging on the hook on the wall just beside the main door.Not looking around, with the heels hanging on her fore and middle hanging on her fore and middle fingers, Gabrielle marches quickly again to the door and without a second thought, gra

The lawyer then looks past her as his mouth opens in agape with the surprise that meets him from the pool area. The very reason why he is here today is right in front of him. Vincent Walton."I see that Mr. Walton came to you first.." Gabrielle looks behind her where Vincent is playing with her daughter in the pool area.What did the lawyer just mean by that?"What do you mean?"

    "And they lived happily ever after.." reading to Veronica every night before bed has become one of Gabrielle's most favourite things to do with her daughter.

Sometimes, Veronica would even mouth the lines she's reading. Doing this with her every night, at the age of 21 months, Nic already knows most of the letters and she's memorized most of the words written on the book.Although on this particular night, she didn't mouth any word of the fairy tale with her and thus, just kept on asking questions about the meaning of certain words and required her to explain furthermore what was happening in the story of the Sleeping Beauty."Mommy?"

    Gabrielle watches her daughter who is seating on the high chair in between her and Vincent as they dine in together for a sumptuous dinner that Vincent has prepared for them. He roasted a turkey with raspberry just and prepared some fresh mashed vegetables for her daughter. Veronica keeps on glancing at the tall masculine man she now loves calling dada.Vincent would also throw a glance every now and then at the toddler tyrant he is having a dinner with for the first time.Shaking his head with a smirk when every time he would glance at her, Veronica would look away and pretend that she's busy with her own meal-her eyes slowly moving up to peek at him again and again as she bows her head and plays with her food inside the bowlin front of her.Gabrielle has been watching the same scenario for the past ten minutes now.

    "Nic!" Gabrielle throws herself up from lying on the bed. Adjusting her vision to what little light there is in the room that is coming from outside. The curtain is closed and she had to reach for the side lamp to have lights inside the dark room where she is."Nic..." her heart begins pounding harshly against her chest realizing she is alone in the room! Veronica is nowhere to be found and for that she immediately rises and stands up to look for her."Veronica!" She runs outside the suite to an empty castle. She looks at her left and right, her hand lost in her brunette locks as she feels as if someone punched her in the stomach because of fear and anger.Where the fuck did Vincent took her daughter?!How long has she been unconscious to not even notice her daughter no longer beside her?!Running down the grand staircase as if she's being chased, Gabrielle immediately goes straight to the playroom.Empty.

She's trembling in so much emotions as she looks at her daughter's happy and hopeful face."Wew 'ave you been, dada (where have you been, dada)?" Her small palm rests on Vince's shoulder before he kisses her forehead while shutting his eyes closed at the question.How can he answer that when the only answer is that he's been through hell without her mother and herself?"Dada? Do you wove (love) Nic?" She asks again making Vince touch her cheek and she lifts up her face to look at him."I love you Nic... with all of me... I'm so sorry I wasn't there.." he says touching her small nose with his before looking at Gabrielle who looks away with so much sadness in her eyes."Do you wove (love) mommy too?"

    He is patiently waiting outside the door as he anticipates what is about to come. With high hopes and excited heart, he lifts his hand again towards the doorbell to ring it once again only to stop midway when he hears the low creaking sound coming from the door frame as it slowly opens.Vincent breathes hard as finally, the door reveals the very woman he has been looking for in the past two and a half years."Bella..." he whispers her name he so misses calling as their eyes meet for the first time in a long time, his with so much longingness and hers... with an obvious shock.And FEAR.The widening of her eyes and the way she gulps as her hand that is holding the doorknob shakes made Vincent's heart aches and his feature soften as he puts his hand on the huge antique wooden door, stopping it from slamming onto his face."Bella please..." he takes one step forward and he sees her shaking in so much fear.

    The bullets of sweat kept on falling from her forehead down to her flushed red face. Gabrielle counts in her mind as she pants while doing her best to even out her breathing pattern. Another electrifying shoot of pain runs down her spine down to her pelvic bones. She could feel her soul separating from her body as the excruciating pain consumes her and she throws her head screaming in pain."H-Help mneeeeeeee! Oh Gooooood please!" She pants clutching on the bedsheet so tightly her knuckles turn white and the veins on her neck looked as if they'll explode.Blowing the air through her mouth, she raises herself up as she pushes so hard she can feel her jaws clicking and the tears stinging her eyes as she closed them tightly while suppressing a scream to put more of her energy on her pelvic area.She tries to reach the count of how long she should push before she exhaustedly throws her body back to the bed. Her legs has been opened wide for what seemed like forever to her now.She is sure

The little girl sniffs as she looks at the doctor in front of her. Gabrielle looks at the angelic face of the little girl before she frowns and pouts at her, making her look away in embarrassment when the doctor catches her staring at her face guiltily. Again, the girl sobs as she wipes her cheeks with her mud-stained hands."Tsk.." Gabrielle tsks at her making her sob and pout, ready to cry again. Using her tears to tame the now upset doctor."Don't cry on me young woman..." she whispers taking the stethoscope off of her chest and detaching its earpiece off of her own ears.Shaking her head at the little girl, Gabrielle could only try not to smile at how cute she is when she's trying not to cry in front of her like this."Your mom will have a hard time washing your dress young woman..." she puts her hand on her waist as she stomps on her
