AIDEN'S POV

"Okay then. Umm!" Mia became serious suddenly. "Once you are done eating, I will be waiting for you. There is something I really want to tell you."

" What is the matter?" I asked with my expression changed.

I saw the seriousness on her face and also felt it in her voice. I was forced to abandon the food for the time being even though I was famished. I don't want to ever see her worried or stressed out.

" It's nothing serious. Just go."

"Whatever you want to tell me must be very important so the food can wait."

"Please go and eat Aiden.I'm waiting for you alright." She tried to smile in order to make me feel at ease.

"But….."

"Shhh...No buts." She placed a finger on my lips to stop the rest of my words from coming out of mouth.

"Oh! Come on Mia, you know that I wouldn't have any rest of mind until you tell me what's bothering you." I groaned.

"Okay Aiden, if you say so, I will tell you what it is."

    AIDEN'S POV"Where the hell were you when some guy suddenly bumped into Mia today?"My anger and fear for the safety of Mia got the better part of me, which made me lose my cool. Like Mia said, there was no way they could have known that the guy was going to intentionally bump into her. Besides, she was sitting down. "We are sorry boss. We didn't think that he would have done that. Besides, there was nothing on the way that could have caused him to trip." One of the guards said. "He was walking straight ahead and suddenly, he came stumbling right into her. " The other guard said. "The hell he did. That is why I'm paying you. To protect her!!. She could have been hurt at that very moment had he intended to." "I'm so sorry about that sir. This will not happen again. ""Did you get a better glance at him? I want him very far away from her.""As a matter of fact sir, we were able to get a picture of him."I became a little bit relaxed at this news."You did?" " Yes sir." "Great jo

    MIA'S POVI was kind of scared Aiden might tell me to stay back and not make this trip with my Aunt because of the incident that took place yesterday. Although he tried to hide it from me, by now, I know him way too much to know exactly when he is worried. This whole issue is so exhausting. God! When will all of these end? Why can't things just go back to the way it used to be before all this headache started happening.It felt nice leaving the house yesterday even if it was just for a few hours. It was even more fun being with my Aunt and cousin until that guy bumped into me. I have tried so hard to remember where and how we must have known each other but to no avail. I seriously do not think I have met that guy before. I have always had a remarkable memory and I don't easily forget things. I'm very sure I would have remembered him even if we never really talked. Something doesn't seem right with this. Now, I understand why Aiden reacted the way he did and seems so unease even

The head of the guards asked, standing in front of Mia and acting as a shield. " Relax buddy. I won't bite. I'm a friend of……" she trailed off the rest of her sentence when she saw me." Speak of the devil. Hey Aiden, it's been a while." She said to me,"Hello!" I grumpily answered her." I was just greeting your Personal Assistant here but for some reason, she seems to have so many guards around her for just a Personal Assistant. She must be an important figure."

Jordan said to me, I know that voice.It's the voice he uses when something is bothering him or he wants to talk about an important matter. What could that be? Whatever it is must be damn serious. "Okay!" I said to them, " Let's go to the garden or the pool side. So we can have some privacy.""Ummm!! I will just be in the room if you need me." Mia said to no one in particular. We went to the pool and Jordan's expression changed to a more serious one."Come on buddy, relax. Whatever it is, I know it won't kill you." I tried to ease the tension that seemed to be rising in our midst."It all depends on how it goes.." "Okay. What is the matter?" "I really don't know how to tell you this and no matter what comes out, I hope you can really take a deep thought about it before reacting."I just kept quiet to hear what he was going to say.“ T..T..There's something I've been h..h..hiding from you.."

Everywhere in the house has been silent like we were mourning. Which is my greatest fear.

" It better be news that is worthy of my time. " I said, " There is going to be a wedding tomorrow."" Who cares? " I snapped at her. " Is this why you called me this early? Seriously, I don't know why I'm still putting up with you."" N..No..No ma'am! " she stammered. Even if she was older than I am, she knew better than to get on my wrong side. She knew what I was capable of. Besides, I'm paying her. " Why are you calling me then? " I asked impatiently. " You don't quite understand what I meant.

    MIA'S POVI woke up in a very dark room with just a little window to let the air into the room. I was sitting on a chair and my hands were tied behind my back but my legs were free. There was also a table in front of me. I groaned softly and tried to adjust myself properly on the chair.I was in pain and my body aches badly. My first thought went to my unborn child. I widened my eyes in panic as I checked myself properly to see if nothing was wrong with my baby. I breathed a sigh of relief when no sign on my body showed that I was in a bad condition. I raised my head up and stared at the ceiling as I had a flashback on how I got here in the first place.Everything was going fine and I couldn't have been happier than I was. My wedding gown was the most beautiful that I have ever seen in the world. Finally, the church wedding ceremony was over and there was this joy in my heart that I just wasn't able to explain when we left for the reception venue. As much as I wanted to still be in

" I answered, checking the time on my wristwatch. " Oh God, please…. Let it not be what I'm thinking. " Audrey muttered under her breath but I heard her clearly." What is wrong? " I asked her. I was confused and at the same time, a little bit scared.She and Jordan made their way to the room set aside for Mia without saying another word to me. I followed behind them. The door was locked and then, the scene of what could have gone wrong hit me with full force. ' Mia!!! ' I screamed in my head.Without thinking twice, Jordan kicked the door down.
