Kendall's POV We reached a very big and beautiful mansion, lights shin through the whole windows as we came through, many couples with masks walking into the entrance as the soft music could be heard. I was amazed by the decorations, the fountain close by had light in the water which made it more elegant.Someone opens the door and helps me out, followed by Enzo, I clutch my arm into his as he pulls my mask to cover my face. He wore his on and we made our way into the building. People having conversations with each other.Enzo looks at me. "Stay with me at all times, okay?" He asked. I nod my head. We walk further in."Ah, Mr Everett" we turn around to see a guy about the same age with Enzo. "Good to see you here tonight" he shakes his hand."Like wise" Enzo replied. His eyes trail towards me. "And who's this beauty?" He asked. I smile towards him. The thing is that I don't know anyone here."This is my future wife, Kendall, Kendall this is my highschool classmate, John Heather." He
Kendall's POVMy parents and family have been nothing but good to me in all of my life, sometimes I wonder why am I their daughter......how are we related. Sometimes, I feel like I was adopted but those are my real parents. I tried to be the best, only for them to be happy and see me as the daughter of their dreams. I've already been through a lot in my early age but I tell myself I'm not gonna let that happen. I agreed to get married because I wanted them to be proud of me and happy....but.But will I be happy in this marriage? I hope so, Enzo is a very nice guy and I really like him, he has a special place in my heart. When ever I'm with him, I feel different emotions I've never felt before. I mean, he's my first kiss, he took my virginity.... he's special to me and I know it and he knows it took. My life before this was something I was confused about my whole life. I've always ask myself, where do I stand? Where will the shinning knight in an amor come to save me away from my const
Kendall's POVDo you know how it feels when someone that makes you feel at home is leaving that home. That's what I am feeling right now, I know it's just one week, but still, I don't want him to go, I can't say that cause I'll be like a burden to his work and I don't think it's mature of me to stop him Now, I'm sitting on the bottom stairs as maids carry his luggages to the car awaited for him. Every single luggage gave me a pang in my chest. But when Lyra comes to sit next to me, she smiles. "Don't worry, I'm gonna be here in every step" she hugs me."I'm really gonna miss him, I've never felt this way before" I tell her. Sure, my parents go on a trip or vacation but funny enough I didn't feel this way because they never had fun with me, like take me to restaurants, allow me to see my friends, teach me how to cook. It was those sad moment in my life that I couldn't hold back a tear, I knew if I told my parents, especially dad, he would have changed things to the better."Thanks man
Enzo's POVJust the thought of this girl in my car makes me uncomfortable, her silence is so odd that I'm desperate to jump out of this car and let it crash straight into a cliff. I smile at the thought, gosh I'm a psychopath."Whey are you smiling?" The girl finally utters. I look at her as my hands were on the wheel."What?" I asked. She shrug her shoulder like it's obvious. "You were smiling, planning my death?" She ask. If only she knew. I laugh at that.This is why I don't like people in my car or even public transportation. When I was young, my mom's car broke down as she was taking me to school she had no choice to take me to school public transport, we used a subway and it was too tight, I was rushed to rge hospital immediately we came out. I had to her not to take me in but she didn't know the consequences would be suffocation.I would never forget that day, I was only eight, when we moved into New York, I had gone to visit Ethan when he was in highschool and after that day,
Kendall's POVI stood here, regretting why I ever knew this man, why did my parents agree to do this to me with such a heartless person. He cheated on me with someone I despise the most. I look at him as his face was emotionless."Why?" I asked. He sigh. "Kendall, i-" I cut him off."No Enzo, you don't have a reasonable response for this picture of you and Ameerah on your bed naked. Tell me Enzo" I demanded. I was blinded by anger. He shakes his head like he's disappointed in me."Is this what you think. You think I'll cheat? You never trusted me" his eyes redden before he looks away. I almost wanted to believe him but for what. "You made me scared, I couldn't sleep all night thinking you are in trouble but you....you" I couldn't bring myself to say it. "Tell me, explain" he smiles sadly shaking his head."I can't explain. You don't want me to talk, pour your anger on me because no matter what I tell you....you would never believe me. If you feel I'm wasting your time, pack your thi
Enzo's POV"Why didn't you tell her?" Reed asked as he stood there looking at me. "She didn't let me. Reed, let it go please. She clearly doesn't trust me, I'm......I......I love her, I've never felt or met any girl like her before. But she broke my heart, she never trusted me.......then why did she sleep with me, she believes I could cheat on her? You know me, I hate it.....I......" I try to say I hate it. But I can't, I do hate it but I don't hate her.I don't even blame her for thinking I cheated, I would react that way but I would also allow explanation, maybe that's the difference between the both of us, she's noht patient.It's been three days now and I wanted to spend time with my family, I had paid my workers to take a break for now, I've been ignoring dad's call. Ethan came over yesterday, I told him everything that has been going on, the truth, I can never hide things from him, he had to promise me not to tell.No one could understand the disgust I feel, not even her, she c
Kendall's POV I clutch my purse close to my thigh as I look at the door standing in front of me, I took deep breath, I'm nervously wondering how foolish I would look. I close my eyes and pray to God that everything was gonna be fine, at least I pray.I hit the door bell, few seconds later, someone opens the door, a maid. "Good morning Ms Black" she greeted, I offered a smile before she lets me in. I walk in slowly. "Kendall, my child" Hani calls from the living room, I look at her, she walks over and hugs me. "How have you been?" She asked."Fine. Uhm.......is Enzo home?" I asked. She smiles sadly before nodding her head. "He's in his room...... he's been like that for days now" she said. I nod my head, taking steps towards the stairs. It all happened in slow motion, like everything, including time freezes.I climb the stairs and went straight to where I remember to be his room, I stood there before knocking. "Yes?" He asked. Typical Enzo. I knock again. "Come in" he corrected. I
Enzo's POV "Assalamualaikum" I greeted the useless man in front front of me. I bet he knew about his daughter's mischievous behavior lately."Wa'alaikum Salam" he replies. I look at him and ask for him to take a seat. When he did, I look at the door, closing it behind me before taking a seat. "It's good doing business with you, you know" he said. "Well, I'll make this short, I'm terminating the contract, I don't want to work with you anymore" I tell him sternly, he swallowed heard, his face became pale. "I......I don't understand what happened?" He asked. I sigh."I'm not comfortable with your daughter, she's disgusting, annoying and disturbing" I tell him the truth. I may sound like an asshole but he knows what I'm talking about."That's rude of you to say that about my daughter" he was so obvious, it's showing on his face that he knows."We will terminate the contract right now and here, if not your daughter will be pressed charges against for ràpe" I smile at him, that's when hi

What do you want?" He asked. "Well, we wanted to see if you'll see the next year" one of the said. He nods for the to guys. Charles had no idea what was coming for him.

"Can you not just talk about it?" I told her. She raised her hands up in fake surrender. No matter how heartless and evil h

Tomorrow is Christmas and I'm excited, we were all in the house that my dad bought so we could spend this year Christmas with the Everett family.I feel like this is my first real Christmas. I sigh, I lean my hand out the window to grab some snow. Its dark outside and the holiday keeps me at ease. Enzo was probably making coffee for me. I look at the fire place, walking over and sitting on the chair in front of it, I gaze at the blazing fire, making a beautiful glow and spark. I want everyone to be happy by tomorrow, it's Christmas of course.The door opened and there stood my husband, I smile at him. He was holding two mugs in both hands. He walks in and shut the door."Our first holiday as husband and wife" he smiles as he hands me a cup, he sat next to me. I took a sip of my hot cocoa. Perfect."This is really good" I said to him. He nods."I made it perfectly for you" he said. I

"By the way, it's my brother we're talking about, I really want to know him.""Okay, fine, but make sure you take care of yourself, okay?" I pulled her for a kiss. She hums a yes through the kiss. She pulled away. "Okay, I need to get going before I get late" she spoke before walking towards her car, she opens the door and get into the car, she smiles
Kendall's POV As Charles's car continued to tear through the open field, the situation took a dire turn. Suddenly, Charles slammed on the brakes, bringing the vehicle to a screeching halt. He jumped out of the car, leaving the engine running, and forcibly dragged me out of the vehicle.I groans of pain and yelps of distress filled the night air as I struggled against Charles's grip. The rough treatment sent waves of agony through my body, but my spirit remained unbroken. I knew that her escape was so close, and I couldn't let Charles's cruel actions deter me.Charles's voice was laced with a mix of anger and desperation as he asserted, "We must proceed with the plan, whether you like it or not, Kendall."I, despite the pain and fear, mustered a fierce resolve. I looked Charles in the eye, my voice filled with defiance. "You can't control me forever, Charles. Enzo and the others are closing in. You won't get away with this."The field, with its expanse of darkness and uncertainty, bec
In the dimly lit warehouse, chaos erupted as the S.W.A.T team executed their meticulously planned rescue operation. The sound of boots hitting the concrete floor echoed throughout the cavernous space as they stormed the facility. Their mission was to secure the area, neutralize Charles's men, and, most importantly, free Kendall.The warehouse was a labyrinth of stacked crates and narrow passages, providing cover for Charles's henchmen. As the S.W.A.T team advanced, bursts of gunfire and sharp echoes filled the air, creating a terrifying symphony of violence.Reed and Mark, both well-trained and focused, moved swiftly, their weapons ready. They took up strategic positions, exchanging hand signals to communicate. Their camaraderie was evident in their seamless coordination.Meanwhile, Enzo, fueled by determination, pushed forward, his heart pounding with a mixture of anxiety and urgency.

"I wonder what's happening now, who do you think could do this?" Lyra asked. Yeah, we were all in the living room.But one thing I suspected was that Rony's mind wasn't here. "I don't know" I mumbled as my full attention was on her, it feels like she's in a state of contemplation."Guys, I need to go" Lyra stood up, grabbing her purse and walking towards the exit. "Bye" she said before exiting the house."What's wrong?" I asked Rony as soon as Lyra left. She got startled and snap to me."Oh......" She chuckles. "It's nothing" she lies. I raised a brow up.

Just last year, I graduated from college and now I'm getting married to my betrothed that I love. Weird.My hair was maid into a tight ponytail, it was curly and it felt nice.
