Her laughter continues to ring relentlessly

all over the large sitting room while she crosses her legs like the evil queen that she is, shaking her head mysteriously with an evil smirk on her face.

Her partner in evil is seated directly beside her, swirling a glass cup of wine in his hand as he places the cup against his mouth and drinks the liquid, also gazing at the large screen in front of the both of them, smiling wickedly.

"Honestly I need to admit. I underestimated this young lad's prowess. He is far more intelligent than I imagine." The stunning, beautiful, but wicked-looking lady says, and Damien chuckles before dropping the glass cup against the table beside his chair.

"Yeah, well, you are right about that. I wish I had seen this from the beginning. It wouldn't have been so hard this way. I shouldn't have allowed her to leave the office at the time she caught us. I guess that is when she probably stumbled into him and now he is trying to make this a living hell for

    Flora's POV "I don't think this is worth anything. We are just going to waste our time, and I can assure you that by the time we get halfway to where we are right now, you are going to lose your energy." I find myself telling him, observing the way his hands are trembling vigorously while he tries to keep me against his back, using himself as a sort of lifeboat or something swimming through the vast sea, looking for a place where we can relax for a short while. He chuckles and shakes his head. "This is an ocean flora okay? There is no place to relax and you should have known that by now. Stop giving yourself false hope." He says as he continues to wave his fingers through the vastness of the waters, moving slowly and scanning the entire surroundings for a place. "Do you know what? I think we should take five." I tell him immediately and point towards a large-looking plank slowly making its way to what was due to the massive waves of the water. "We can take that. I hope it will be

  • Tangled Truths   46. About To Get To Ride

    Flora's POV The tension increases rapidly, making both of us forget that we are still in the middle of a sea, completely stuck in the middle of nowhere with no one around to help us. I don't even know why we don't suddenly care about this anymore and it kind of makes me feel intrigued. The seawater brushing against our skin is intensifying the spark I am feeling, drawing me closer and closer towards him. I gasp with Desire as he trails his fingers along my waist and then pulls me closer all the more towards himself forcing me to feel his bulge below his belt. Oh, good lord. I lost control of my sanity and then moved my legs, wrapping them tightly around his waist in that position. "Oh fuck Flora..." He whispers against my lips and begins to plan so many endless trails of kisses all over my cheeks and then towards my neck. The fact that we are both completely soaked is intensifying all the want in my body. I can feel every fabric and structure of his muscularly toned body and

    Lucas' POV Well, I know that she must be presently looking at me as though I'm the daftest person she has ever come across but well as I mentioned earlier she hasn't known me all these years to know what skills and abilities I have managed to acquire due to the fact that I know what the world is and I had to prepare to ensure that my stand is amongst to those who are the ones that can't be bullied for this regarded. I am about to make my way out of our hiding place after signaling for her to remain where she is and keep quiet, but then she takes hold of my hand. "You seriously do not have to do this. It could be a little bit dangerous. They have the better advantage. They have weapons on a speed boat, but you are armless, and you are stuck up in the water." She whisperers calmly and the worry in her features is unmistakable. Wow, I never knew she cared for me this much. I smirk at her and move closer to her before connecting my lips with hers for a very brief moment. Then I pull

  • Tangled Truths   48. Perverted Seduction

    Flora's POV I honestly do not like the sound of what I am hearing but then it's not like there is anything I can do. I have already promised him that I'm going to maintain my stay inside here till he is done and then he's going to get back to me. "And probably make love to you in this hiding place." My stupid, silly mind says to me, and it forces me to slap my cheeks hard. Jeez, stop fucking thinking about these perverted thoughts Flora. I tried to caution myself and quickly shook my head the moment I noticed that the endless shooting and struggle around had already subsided. I blink rapidly, wondering if it is going to be a great idea to step out and see if everything is okay, but then I remember that I have to stay with him and wait for him to get back. Uurrgh. This is the worst thing I hate about suspense. It just keeps me bound without any way to escape from a situation that feels as if my heart is being tugged in different directions. I hear whispers and discussions betwee

    Lucas' POV Jesus lord what the hell came over me right there? I think to myself as we begin to Walk through the waters, slowly making our way towards the speed boat I had managed to capture from that stubborn-headed bodyguard of a fellow. We get to the boat, and I use myself as a support, allowing her to step on my shoulder while I grip the edge of the boat to maintain stability. She stumbles into the boat and suddenly screams forcing me to look at her with shock. But then she covers her mouth quickly looking at me with fear. "I am so sorry. There is a body in the boat." I frown at her words, and it is then that I realize that I forgot to dispose of the body of a chief security guard whom I had blown his brains out a few minutes ago. Oh shit. I guess I should have disposed of his body immediately and cleaned out the mess before bringing her here. But then I was too occupied with so much eagerness to just get back to her and show her that I am not one to be underestimated and I

    Flora's POV Following the directions of Lucas's assistant and Serena's guidance, we find ourselves in a secluded part of the city in one of the largest estates known as Viscaria, where Lucas's most secluded secretive family mansion is, and it seems like that must be the most protected area according to him. The situation before us is the kind that tells us that we have to be careful wherever we go because the common enemy is on our tail, and well, that enemy is the one that is going to stop at nothing until he gets what he wants, which is me. God knows that I sincerely do not want to go back into his hands anymore. I am so done with him, and I can't even begin to picture or imagine what my life will be like in his home, even after figuring that he doesn't give a shit about my well-being.It's going to be literal hell on Earth, and I'm not about to go through that, not in my lifetime.We are all standing directly in front of the largest and tallest golden beautiful design gate I hav

    Flora's POV My eyes cannot begin to magnify or explain the beauty I am looking at right now. The fact that the evening is already fast descending is not making it easy for me to visualize everything clearly, but then the street lights are already beginning to switch on automatically one after the other to create a more visible environment even as the darkness slowly descends.Lucas walks over to a section of the beautiful road, gazing at the roadside flowers, and I make a move to head over towards in, but someone takes my arm, pulling me back. I turn around to see Serena giving me a hard glare and it makes me raise my eyes with wonder as I observe her. "Is anything wrong?" I asked her immediately, but then she shook her head and took me to another side, far away from Charles, who was still standing before us, looking a little bit nervous, probably of our presence or something, but I don't know. "I still do not get how you are comfortable moving around like this along with someone

  • Tangled Truths   52. Magnificent Palace Vibe

    Flora's POV It's not like I have not been to the rich part of life before. It's not like I have suffered almost all my life and not experienced what it means to live your life with satisfaction. I have, but I'm not just the kind of person who focuses her mind and attention on the most expensive technology or the latest brand of substances that have special effects that include a way to the human mind. My mind slowly began to drift back to the days when I and Damien lived in peaceful harmony with the love I felt for him, then far more intense due to how he reciprocated and treated me like I was the only female he had ever seen. Those were marvelously perfect good days until probably the queen of Death descended and decided to take perfect control over his brain turning him against me. I heave a sigh of disappointment, leaning my elbows against the edge of the window and using my hand as a support as I continue to look out, admiring the rows of Mansions and skyscrapers as Lucas spe

  • 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

    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

    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

    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

    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

    Flora's POV I gulp hard at serena's words as I continue to look at Damian who still looks like a little child trying to persuade his mom to get him something. he begins to step closer and from the expression on his face I can see determination and adamancy. "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
