I waited for a few seconds after I felt my make-up artist stop. Something about the silence that filled the room told me to open my eyes and when I did. I saw Kairos' reflection. He is all dressed up for the rehearsal and he has something on his hand that he is trying to hide from me.

Kairos glanced at my glam team and then back to me. He told me to tell them to leave the two of us alone for a few seconds and so I did.

When I looked at the make-up artist. She nodded her head at me before I could say something and then she left the eyeshadow palette as well as the eyeshadow brush on the table before she excused herself and the rest of her team.

"What brought you here?" I asked him. I took a blush and started to put some on the apple of my cheeks. My eyes slowly drifted into his direction as he remained silent, only eyeing me with a meaningful smirk on his lips.

"If you wish to add a bar on your scoreboard. I am sorry to break it up to you but we only have thirty minutes before our f

    "Ms. Rory, your family just arrived," said the event's organizer. Hearing that snapped me back in reality. It put me back in the spot where I belong and cut off my fantasy that Kairos would realize that the reason why he finds me so different from the old Rory was because we are two different people but that would never cross his mind. "I will see you later," I told him with a smile on my lips. Kairos nodded his head. Moving around to find myself that comfortable spot. My world fell in slow motion after Kairos kissed me on my cheek and a peck on my lips, "Alright, laters, baby," he whispered when he pulled away. My heart dropped to my stomach after I saw Rory's mother standing near the door, watching it happen. She saw all of it happen. Kairos slightly lifted the corner of his lips to acknowledge her presence before he walked past her and Diana Spencer did the same thing. She closed the door afterwards leaving me and her inside. "Please, don't put me in a bad mood. If I am... the re

    Confusion slowly fills his eyes as Kairos stares at Mr. Suarez. He tried to decipher the look that he was giving me as if Kairos felt uncomfortable by the way the old man was staring at me. He pulled me closer to him, marking his territory. "Of course, he would look familiar to you, Mr. Suarez. Rory is the face of her clothing brand and she does model too. She models for their company too," Kairos said to help the old man remember where he could have seen me but by the way, he was staring at me. Mr. Suarez knows why I look familiar, Isla from the strip club is the one he clearly remembers upon seeing me and not Rory Spencer; the wealthy only daughter and one of the heiress of the great Spencer clan. I looked at the old man faking my confusion, acting as if I don't have an idea what is it that he is trying to say when I do know, acting as if it's my first time seeing him when I can clearly remember him. How can I? He was a one-time client and yet he is a big tipper I spent a few night

    "My father did what, Isla? He offered for you to be his stripper?" He asked and I remained speechless. I couldn't stare straight into his eyes. I am not sure what kind of relationship that it is that he has with his father but I think I saw how his heart breaks into tiny and million little pieces after I told him that. I know that feeling. I once felt that. Maybe just like me. Nicholas looks up to his father so much that it feels like a betrayal to see a glimpse of what he is actually like. I breathed deeply and stood still, confused whether I'd beg him to believe me but if I do, what's the point? "You don't have to believe me, okay? I am currently helping your family make a fool out of Kairos. There is no need for you to buy this but what would I get from lying to you? For breaking your family apart?" "You can't break us apart," he said with such conviction, sounding like a law or if not a curse that is making everyone in their family suffer.Nicholas glanced at me once last time,

    Kairos stared deep into my eyes. I wanted to walk away from him this instant and be in a place where it's just me so I can clear up my head but he didn't let me slip off his hand this time. "Kairos, please. Let go of me. I-I don't want to be here," I pleaded at him with tears starting to pool in my eyes and that's when he realized that I was serious and wasn't just toying with him this time. He intertwined our fingers as he held me closer to him to hide my face from our guests just so they wouldn't see me crying. If one of these people sees me tearing up. They will automatically assume that something is wrong and then there might be no wedding to happen on Sunday. A lot of these businessmen are probably waiting for their chance to propose a new merging opportunity with the Lancasters through a wedding. If one of these people managed to snatch Kairos and become in-laws with them. I'd be dead meat for sure. Kairos looked around before he started to pull me upstairs. I was taken aback a

    I found myself clinging more to his arm after I saw all the eyes staring at us as we made our way down the stairs. Biting my lower to stop myself from chuckling. I could feel Kairos staring at me wondering what could be the reason for my ghostly smile. "Are you thinking what I am thinking?" I asked him as we took the last step and now we officially landed on the second floor. His eyes met an old man. Kairos nodded his head at him to acknowledge his presence before he lowered his gaze back to me. "I have no idea," he whispered back at me. I tapped his shoulder as a sign that I wanted him to lean his ear closer to my lips and when he did. I instantly murmured words that caught him by surprise. Sometimes, even though he knows how vulgar and wild I can be. He ended up getting caught off-guard each time I came up with the nastiest thoughts. "Why would you think that they are thinking that?" He asked so seriously. My eyes looked around and I caught a few people whispering at each other wh

    Olga shut her eyes tightly. She tried to make her husband stopped from walking away and when she couldn't. She breathed deeply to control her temper and then she opened her eyes only to see me looking away from her as soon as our eyes met. I heard her sigh for the second time around. "I am sorry about that. You surely didn't expect my family to be perfect right? People like us can have everything within a snap of our fingers but never peace," she mumbled. I nodded my head to let her know that I knew exactly what she was talking about. God, isn't quite unfair that even if they can't have peace within their family they at least can get anything else besides that, and then there are human beings like me who can barely afford anything,g and that fucking includes peace within my family. I always knew that money is the root of evil. I was raised by angry parents, in a house full of hatred and frustration because my family barely affords anything. "Isla," a voice of an old man whispered n

    "Welcome to the family, Rory." Kio raised his wineglass and the rest of us followed. Everyone sips on their champagne and wine. He got off the small platform and then he walked towards our table. "Are you okay?" I asked him half smiling. We are almost done with the rehearsal dinner and everyone is now minding their own business. Kio lightly shook his head and then he purposely made sure that I saw him straighten his posture. He flashed a smile and once again offered his hand to me. I looked at Kairos when I saw him staring straight at his twin brother. "Come on, do you mind if I dance with my sister-in-law? Just one dance, Kairos. It's not like she will change her mind and choose to marry me instead of you after this," Kio teased Kairos. I took his hand and pulled him straight to the dancefloor. Kio is full of antics and he knows how to irritate his twin in more ways than one before he gets on Kairo's nerves. I'd distance him away from his twin. "Have you heard it from me?" He asked

    "How did you know?" Kio exclaimed. His eyes shift from me and Gresya so now Gresya knows that we are talking about her and if I am Gresya who is part of this so-called dirty little secret. I would be nervous too. She is probably rummaging in her head to find some answer.I grab Kio by his pulse to the corner of the dancefloor away from people so we can continue to talk about this. When my eyes meet him again for the second time. He seems calmer like he knows now that he shouldn't have reacted the way he did. He looked around just to make sure that everyone was back minding their own business and it seemed like that until I found my fiancé eyeing the two of us curiously and Gresya was doing the same thing. "I didn't. It was a wild guess but boy you are bad at hiding secrets and how come you don't lie? How come you are a terrible liar when you are a notorious playboy and fuck boy?" I asked him. Kio scoffed, offended by what I just called him. I mean, that is the truth! "Is there some

    "Nicholas grab the bait." Said by an nbi agent from the radio that Kairos and Kio immediately heard. They turned to the window where they could see the car parked at the back of the hide out that Heidi had put a tracker with."Fuck!" Kairos cursed out loud after he saw Nicholas driving away from his hide out."Where's Heidi? Her phone? That's where we can see the location of the car that Nichola's driving.""Heidi's dead but I got her phone." Special Agent Montefiore mumbled to them. He immediately searched for Nicholas's location through Heidi's phone amf they are taking a familiar road that leads to a cliff."I know that place. We should head there now." He told the agent and Barrette nodded.Kairos walked out of the room first to instruct his men on their next plan and then he turned to Kio."Please take care of my daughters. I will leave them under your care. I need to save, Isla. I'd die if something bad happens to Isla.""Our men will take care of them, Kairos. I already in

    "The infamous Isla Lancaster It's so nice to finally meet you." Odette is wearing a devilish smile as she walks towards me. She sat on the edge of the bed and looked at me quietly, which eventually ended with her laughing at me.She stood up and shook her head. Seeing me tied in bed like this tells me one thing. She is glad to see me suffering.She darted her eyes back at me with the same smile. Odette came closer again then she dug her sharp nails and traced my cheek with it and she end up caging my jaw on her fingers. I gritted my teeth and keep those groans of pain inside of my lips for I don't want to give her the satisfaction of seeing me hurting because of her.I tried to move my face away from her hand as my way to fight back but she didn't let go of me and instead she tightened her grip on my jaw and she started to laugh in a mocking manner."What the hell is so special about you huh? You're just a lowly stripper like me and yet you managed to win his heart when I couldn't

    "I thought your investigator and the NBI agent is working on it? Why do you still not know where Nicholas took my Isla and daughters?" Kairos shouted at the men in front of him.Kairos closed his eyes when he felt pain in his wound from the gunshot that Nicholas.Kio took over. He confronted the agents that Laurant was talking to earlier. "We hope to hear another lead from you but for now it's better for all of you to leave us alone." Kio said. The agents nodded to him in agreement. Just in time with the agents leaving his hospital room. A doctor and Kairo's nurse walked in to check on his fresh wounds."We need to be left alone with the patient, Sir." The female nurse said to Kio. He glanced at his cousin one more time before he left the room as he was told.The female nurse quickly injected Kairoz with an enough dosage of anesthesia after she removed the bandage from his wound while the doctor started to clean it after she stepped away from Kairos.It also took them more tha

    "Nicholas, stop it!" Heidi's voice was full of anger. She followed me while I carry the unconscious Isla to a bedroom. I didn't say a word to her and continued walking until I reached the room itself."This is not love. This is obsession. I'm not in favor of what you're doing anymore." I carefully laid Iris on the bed and turned to face Heidi. Her eyes scream too much disagreement with everything that she witnesses. I took a step closer to her and that made her step back. The trembling of her hand did not escape the corner of my eye while it was holding the hem of the bomber jacket that she was wearing."I don't care about you or anyone else. I only need her. I only want her.""Are you really going to ruin your life for a woman who doesn't love you?" She shouted to cut off what I was saying. I couldn't stop myself any longer and my palm hitted her face which made her quiet for a few seconds.It took her moments to redeem herself and when she did. Seething anger on her pools

    I knocked twice on the door of Kairos's office on the first floor of the mansion. I caught him standing with his back facing the door. One of his hands was on his waist and the other was holding his phone. He gave me his weak smile and gestured for me to come near him. I held my breath and tried to smile before I walked closer to him."You didn't sleep last night." I said to him. He wrapped me in his arms possessively. One of his hands touches my waist. Kairos seated himself on the table top and me on the other hand remained standing.He shrugged his shoulders and put a few strands of my hair at the back of my ear. "I needed to fix things for your flight and the place you'll be staying at." He murmured. He rested his chin on my shoulder. I closed my eyes when his hot breath hit my neck that made the hair around my neck stand up.My hand started playing with the strands of his hair who are now longer than his usual hair cut."Do we really have to leave?" I asked in a low

    "This is mine!" I quickly made my way to the first floor of the mansion when I heard Beryl's shrill and hysterical voice."I said I want that!" Raileigh argued back and tried to grab a magazine from Beryl's hand that my daughter is keeping away from her. I just held my breath and finally approached them both. Beryl came up to me then she gave Raileigh a death glare who was also looking at her with raised eyebrows."What are you two fighting about this time?" I asked in a low voice. Beryl pulled away from me a little and showed her a fashion magazine. I mentally shook my head because of it.Would you believe that? A seven years old kids are fighting over a fashion magazine?"She's trying to get this from me. This is mine. She didn't even mind asking if I could lend this to her, Mom. She just tried to grab it from my hand." Beryl told me what happened and then she hugged the magazine again and gave Raileigh her piercing glare. They are fighting over silly things, that's usu

    "By next week we will have the results of the examinations that we did on Mrs. Spencer.""Lancaster. She is a Lancaster." Kairos interrupted the Doctor just to correct him. The Doctor then looked at him with an anxious smile and nodded."Mrs. Lancaster." He repeated. He stood up from his swivel chair to shake his hand, but Kairos decided to reject shaking hands with him.Did I seriously fall for this man before? He is a bit rude and snobbish. Even now. I am still falling for him and that made me question my taste when it comes to men."Next week? That's too long. Can't you make a way for us to get it by tomorrow?" I grabbed Kairos's arm to stop him from speaking. He bore his tired eyes at me that is filled with frustration. I pulled him to his back and luckily he didn't say anything anymore."Thank you, Doc. We'll come back next week." I said. I extended my hand to him to shake his hand, but Dr. Aleman chooses to smile at me and stare at Kairos instead whose giving him a fair

    "Can you remove your tiara now?" I asked her after I've seen her wearing it even when she's brushing her teeth. Beryl looked at me for a moment then shook her head to decline my request.She finished brushing his teeth and then wiped her mouth with a towel that was just hanging on the side of the small sink of her own bathroom."I want to sleep wearing this." She murmured and gave me her sweet smile thinking that it'll help her to convince me.I narrowed my eyes on her. Beryl snorted then carefully removed the tiara from the top of her head. I followed her with my eyes as she walked towards the shelf where she got that tiara along with all the other jewelry and hair accesories.I seriously think that she's too young to have things like that."Mom." Beryl opened her sleepy eyes and watched me with a faint smile in her thin and pinkish lips."You love him more than you love Papa Nicholas right?" She suddenly asked. I stopped from stroking her hair. She caught my hand and checked o

    "Years ago. I got into an accident baby. I was in a coma for months and when I woke up. I-I lost all my memories. I can't remember your Dad anymore and all that I have by my side that time is your Daddy Nicholas. He told me that we are married. I am sorry but your Daddy Nicholas lied to us." An unbreakable silence made its presence known. Beryl was just staring at me with her mouth half-open, probably shocked at the information that I just gave to her."Dad did that? But why would he lie like that?" He asked me in disbelief. Beryl stood up from sitting. Beads of tears pools around her eyes.She shook her head as her way of telling me that she does not want to believe me.I stood up and approached her. Beryl sobs broke the silence of the mansion. She grew up thinking that Nicholas is her own superhero, the perfect king then this happened. She finds out that her hero is a villain disguising himself as one.Beryl sobbed while she is hugging me so tight as if she's trying to hide her
