I can't believe the unbelievable trauma and the excessive torture she must have been going through in his home all these years. She is going through hell.What the hell has he put her up to all this while? She doesn't even have the mindset of freedom from him. She feels tied to him.

I need to free her. My mind is in turmoil as I look around me, thinking of the best possible solution to address this. I can't reveal myself to her right now. She's not going to accept this.

Flora's POV Okay, so I did not expect this one to happen. My body is in chaos.I don't know where to look as I dart my attention from the door back to Serena at intervals."Get this door open right now, Flora, or else I'm going to break it down!!" Damien's voice is shouting angrily from right outside the door and I can tell his patient has already been tested. These are the moments when I fear to experience his anger.It is anger is something that can bring down empires or turn down great organizations into nothingness.It is something I have experienced before, and I have told myself that I am not going to encounter this anymore. But what the hell am I to do right now? I don't want to go back home with him. I don't even want to be with him at all one bit. What am I going to do? I think to myself as I look at Serena with worry.She suddenly looks calm, and it makes me squint my eyes at her, wondering what the hell she is thinking."Are you seriously just staring at the door doin

Flora's POV Okay, I need to understand what the hell is going on here. What the hell is Lucas doing here? " Lucas?" I find myself calling his name out loud as the vibrating sound of the bedroom door becomes louder turn forcing me to turn around and look at the door once again. I notice that the hinges are already beginning to pull away from their positions forcing the very top of the door to move out of its normal standing State. The door is coming down soon in a few minutes and I need to get out of here. Lucas knocks against the window catching my attention once again. "come out!" he shouts out loud and then uses all his energy to push the window open to release a fresh gust of breeze into the bedroom. " come with me right now. I can't help you," he says and this makes me frown. "What?" I ask him with confusion and turn around once again, hearing the vibrating sound of the bedroom door. Christ. the confusion and the trembling in my body is excessive. "come with me rig

Lucas' POV "They are on our tail Lucas!! What are we going to do? They are so relentless they are going to keep coming for me wherever we go!!" Her voice is ringing endlessly in my ears and it forces me to slowly tilt my head to look at her.I can notice beautiful soft lips trembling.I notice those delicate-looking, glittering blue eyes of hers filled with a certain sort of fear that I don't like to see. Seeing her in this state is torturing me. It is doing some crazy things to my mind that I know I might not be able to control anytime soon. I don't like it. I don't like to see her like this but well... what can I say? It is what happens when we are being chased by the very person who wants nothing except to keep her bound to him and ensure her life becomes a total mess. That is what I can tell. If Flora, by mistake, gets into Damien's hands, her life is officially over, and I can't let that happen. Oh, I really can't. I think to myself as I pull against the gear of the vehicle
Last Updated : 2024-11-18Tangled Truths 23. Cannot Get Enough Of Him
Flora's POV I can notice and observe the nervousness in his expression. It is making my insight giddy. I struggle to keep back the laughter that is raging deep down within me to burst out. Not just yet. I am not going to let him know that what I am doing is just an easy plot of mine just to make him think that I am angry when I know I am not. But of course, I have no freaking right to be angry. Why should I be? He just fucking saved my life at the time I needed him the most. That is the cutest thing any guy has ever done for me in my entire existence. I'm not even sure Damien would have the guts to do something like that. I just don't know what to say. I don't even know how to express what I feel right now. The only thing raging deep down in my mind is that I am crazy head over heels for the man seated in front of me. I have always loved him from the beginning and I can't deny the fact that the love is still there. The feeling is still strong as ever and I am cravin
Last Updated : 2024-11-18Tangled Truths 24. Never Going To Let Her Go Away
Lucas' POV Okay, I was seriously not expecting this to happen. This is one of the biggest mesmerizing experiences I can ever describe or state. When the hell did it get to this? What I can explain is that I was on the verge of busting out. I was on the verge of letting out a certain fury that I could not bear because she was sounding as if my presence was immensely irritating to her. The pain at her words was so intense, and I felt as though she was stabbing through my heart with a knife. I couldn't help it so I was at the.... I was just showing her just how infuriated I was about what she was doing. But then I didn't expect this to be her next action. And I am deeply immersed in it right now. I can't fucking stop. Her lips. Geez. they are so mesmerizing. She is the hottest and the most beautiful lady I have ever encountered in my life. I can't even begin to explain how my previous anger dissipated immediately when I felt her lips against mine. I am groaning endlessly a

Flora's POV Okay so when he mentioned about taking me to his private villa in a far away hidden place where one can locate I never actually imagined a beach. I am currently standing at the shore of the largest beach in LA with a confused expression in my face as I observe the hot sand covering my feet. Okay what the hell is going on here? I wonder to myself as I slowly turn around to observe Lucas taking up some stuffs from the boot of his vehicle. Then another vehicle suddenly packs behind his and a good-looking man steps out of it walking quickly and briskly towards him. I watch as Lucas says a thing or two to the fellow and then the fellow nods his head. From what I can see between their interaction it appears that that might actually be his assistant or something like that. The fellow steps into the vehicle we both used to get to the beach and then I watch another person step out of his previous vehicle from the back seat climbing into the driver seat. Within a few

Flora's POVI stand at the edge of the boat placing my hand against the handrails and gazing into the ocean while it speeds so slowly at a comfortable pace towards only God knows where.I have done my very best in pressuring Lucas to open up and tell me where we are heading but he keeps telling me it's a surprise. Receiving a surprise is not something I am used to because it leaves me curious and I hate being taken off guard by things I am not expected to see. But there's nothing I can do now. He seems pretty determined, and upon my endless series of disturbances, you refused to tell me what I want to know. So all I can just do is relax here helplessly, staring at the Ocean, which looks so peaceful and so calm with streaks of the sun's rays shining into the water. "Like what you see don't you?" I hear his voice behind me and briskly turn around to look at him.He is not putting on his suit. He has already changed into casual boat wear, which is a pair of white shorts and a red f

Tangled Truths 66. Malicious Smile
Flora's POV I still remain at a spot with an uncontrollable intense anger in my system as Damien remains where he is, gazing at me relentlessly, not willing to back down anytime soon away from the door. I'm struggling and trying my hardest to listen to Serena's advice as she continues to pat against my back, trying to plead with me to relax and head back into the room so that we don't make a scene right at the door to her apartment, as a few people in the streets are passing by and gazing with some sort of strange expression on their faces. I shake my head and close my eyes for a few minutes before slowly stepping aside and Damien steps into the room with a wicked sort of smile on his face that makes me just to want to give him a punch that would dislocate his nose. Serena closes the door the moment he had stepped in and then gestures towards the sofa. "Make yourself comfortable, Mr Damien." She says with a fake plastic smile on her face and she watches him walk over tow

Tangled Truths 65. Dangerous Schemes
Flora's POV I grind my teeth together with extreme cold fury while I continue to pace up and down all over the sitting room with my mind finding it hard to comprehend everything that Serena has just explained to me.This is one of the all-time biggest secrets of the year and hearing about it right now has actually set all the last remaining pieces of the puzzle I have been trying to work on all this while. It is now that I have actually figured out and realize why things have actually been the way they have been. This is just crazy. So he has actually been fucking using me all this while? I am nothing but a mere pawn in his hands that he can just turn around and do as a scapegoat whenever he wants to escape all his evil perpetuations. So he is the master mind behind the dark dealings, that nearly ended the lives of 80% of inhabitants in the local part of this city, which the government have been trying to battle for years??Jesus lord, that particular fact is really driving me cr
Tangled Truths 64. Bastard!!
Lucas' POVI remain at a spot on the chair examining the devious devil standing directly in front of me laying against my table and fumbling with a few documents examining them as though he wants to attend to them or something. "So now that we have come to an agreement that you are presently under my care and completely powerless without any means to go against me I think we can settle down as men and talk one on one like we should so we can discuss the next phase of the plan and see how things are really going to go this time." I grind my teeth together with fury clenching my fist tight as I think of a way to evade this situation. Good lord he's really damn smart then I anticipated. I knew it wasn't going to be that hard and it is just going to be a piece of cake for him to evade the trap I placed a few minutes ago but I never expected that he was actually going to escape it this fast and then come back with a massive super fast retaliation plan that has kept me trapped I can't e
Tangled Truths 63. The Rage Building Up
Flora's POV " Honestly I don't really see any good reason why you should be bothering yourself this much about that guy. I know that you guys must have actually been classmates back in your high school days but Jesus is the lord wake up and live your life in the real world flora okay? you can't just spark up a single connection just meeting him about how many days ago. It just doesn't work that way."I furrow my eyebrows and slowly tilt my head to glance at Serena seated beside me talking as always like the little mother that she is trying to control my actions once again and it makes me exhale trying my best to be cool as much as I can. I really do not want to talk about this right now but the way she is so persistent about it is already getting on my nerves. It's not like I had actually done anything to warrant this discussion. I was only bothered about the fact that I'm feeling extremely guilty right now for treating Lucas the way I did back at that estate. I mean I really have
Tangled Truths 62. I'm Trapped
Lucas' POV All things done and dusted I am extremely happy that that Damian of a fellow has been put back in his place and for a very considerable amount of time he won't be able to pester or disturb Flora anytime soon but I know that it is not just going to be the end. The misley little bastard like I have observed all this while is a very stubborn one that can be so infuriating and relentless when it comes to drastic dealings such as these. So I don't think I'm going to let my guard down even if for a few minutes. I stepped into the revolving door that leads to the threshold of my company while adjusting my tuxedo as the buttler standing at the door approaches me with a very calm smile on his face. "Good morning Mr Arden. Pleasure seeing you again anything I would like to do for you?" I roll my eyes at him and calmly wave my hand towards him with a fake plastic smile on my face. Yeah right. These door men who seem to try everything within their power to gain favors. They real
Tangled Truths 61. Can't Control At This Moment.
Flora's POV I bite hard against my bottom lip before tilting my head slowly to look at Serena. She also turns her head to look at me and I realize that I am not actually the only one feeling this enraging shock that is hitting straight into my bones right now. It's not like it's actually a bad thing that Lucas actually intervened and came to help us. In fact I am actually glad he did and I really want to walk up to him right now and hold him so tight to show him how much I appreciate his show up presently. But I did not just expect that he will suddenly come up after us and do this immediately after the way I treated him back at his estate.I find myself watching him as he stays at a position at the entrance of the building with his arms at his back. he gestures at the officer taking Damien away from us. Damien stops directly in front of him and scoffs before smirking at him. "I honestly do not see what you gain by doing this but you do know that this is just a waste of time righ
Tangled Truths 60. Confusion
Flora's POVOkay so this is one of the most craziest things and the most freakish thing I have ever seen or experienced.I am seriously having a hard time trying to figure out why he is extremely this desperate to just get to me and achieve whatever stupid aim he has in his mind. I am left standing at a spot gazing at him with extremely wide eyes due to the shock passing through my body.Why is he insanely this desperate about getting to me this way?I watch him as he gazes at me with a malicious smile on his face adjusting his tuxedo and straightening the flower in his hands before slowly closing the door behind him." I am so sorry but I don't think you can get rid of me that easily This is a serious important issue that we need to talk about as the good people that we so do not make this extremely hard for the both of us."His composure presently at the moment is totally frightening as i and serena begin to step backwards examining him intensely in case he tries to do something c

"look, all I just want is for you to come back to me, okay? I have really missed you so much." desperacy is written all over his face as he makes a move Close towards me and attempts to take my hand but Serena pulls me backwards helping me to evade him as he continues to make his way closer and closer towards me. in fact the impression he is given right now is that he desperately wants me back or something and it is just making me feel so worried and confused. if he didn't actually care about me in the first place to go behind my back and take another woman as his wife, then what the living hell does he wants with me? this is just so crazy as hell and I can't contain the rage that is already brewing my mind as I glar
