Miguel’s POV
Why can’t she just listen to me, why won’t she just listen?After I stormed out of the room in anger, I went to pick up her car from the hotel where we had abandoned it when those thugs came after us. The plan was to follow behind her and keep watch over her to make sure nothing happens to her. It’s my responsibility as a Hartford, I can't back down now, not after the promise I made to my twin brother Raymond, it’s been more than four months and I still haven’t heard from him, but I won’t give up, I won’t believe whatever the media is saying. His beacon is still turned on, yes the tracker is turned off but it’s still on anyways. Besides, he is a Hartford, we went through the same training, he knows the drill, he knows that if the threat is too great for him to handle alone, he is supposed to use the Hartford’s special flare gun and signal for help. Unlike other flare guns that shoot one bulStill Miguel’s POV“Keep your eyes open, I need you to look at me. You can’t shut your eyes, just keep your eyes on me, listen to my voice, just listen to me. You’ll be fine, I promise.” I told her softly. I had one hand on the steering wheel while my other hand was stretched towards her, holding her hand. She has lost so much blood and she looks as pale as a ghost.“I… I… It hurts… It hurts so badly, I can’t take it anymore. I… I… I can’t bear it anymore. G… G… Get help Miguel… I… I… I… need help… Help…” She cried out in pain, shivering like a feverish patient. I have been driving around for a good few minutes, yet there was no hospital in sight, none at all. We had left the crime scene just in the nick of time. The cops passed us on their way to the crime scene but they had no idea that we were the culprit, they simply passed by
Hillary’s POVThey say when you die, you’ll see a very bright light, a light that would lead you to a better place. They say you have to follow that light and then you’ll get to your final destination in life.Well, that’s all bullshit!!!I saw no fucking light, none at all. It was just pitch darkness. The darkness was so weakening and frustrating, I could see a thing, not a damn thing. I walked in the darkness for a very long time, searching for something or someone or anything that could explain how I got here and what the hell I’m doing here. The last thing I remember is driving out of the hotel to go and stop them from burying my Nathan when he is still alive. I was going to expose Ariel,Yes, that was the plan. I had discovered that she has a stake in all that is happening to him. I just discovered that she is a cunning both that wants to get married a Trent by all means. I had all the evidence I need to prove that she is
Miguel’s POVI turned my car around heading to the bridge, making all the cars to chase after me. I deliberately took some curves and turns that confused the coos chasing after me, making them crash against each other. Before long, the cars chasing after me reduced considerably, but they never gave up on me, they continued calling for more backup, chasing after me relentlessly.Ariel was nowhere in sight, but I know she is still controlling these guys. I could have the pinging sound on the phones I took from her guys when I accosted them earlier. Her endless messages were on display on the screen of the phone. Her orders were to shoot to kill. With the way she has been desperately trying to kill Hillary, I think she has found out about her secret marriage with Nathan.Her guys are good, too good. I think they use the same procedures as the Mafia, they are very efficient and they get information with lightning speed. There is no information that can be hidd
Ariel’s POVI tried calling her after she dropped the call but she wasn’t taking my calls anymore. I realized that I had acted like a complete jerk when I stopped talking to her. It’s not her fault that her man has a lunatic for an ex, it’s not her fault that he died without telling his family that he is now legally married to her.I shouldn’t have acted so stupidly, I’ve been with her for so many years now, I’ve watched her love him from a distance, falling deeply in love with him. I know how much she loved him, I should have stood by her when she is alone, I should have understood her feelings and stood by her, but I didn’t. I betrayed our friendship by giving up on her when she needed me the most, I did not only leave the country, I stopped taking her calls also, pushing her away from me.When she spoke to me on the phone, she had sounded so sad and from the way she spoke, she made it sound like she is going to be in
Hillary’s POVI don’t know how Nathan disappeared from our house, I don’t even know how the house disappeared into thin air also, next I know, I’m lying on a bed hearing Avril's voice as she sobs beside me, crying her heart out.If this is a dream, it has got to be the worst dream I’ve ever had. It’s not just frustrating, it’s heartbreaking too. It’s a mockery of my feelings, it hurts so bad to be mocked this way. First, it was Nathan, I thought it was real, I thought he is back for me, but he disappeared from my presence, vanishing into thin air. Now it is Avril's turn. I can see her head lying on the bed next to me and I’m hearing her voice as she apologizes for leaving me when I needed her the most.I just don’t get but, why would she be apologizing to me for running away from here, she was running to save her life and I understand it perfectly. I would have done the same if I were in her shoes,No, I wouldn’t have the same if I were in her shoes, I wouldn
Nathan’s POVEight months,Two weeks,And two days…That’s how long I’ve been stranded on this island with no chance of escape. It still feels like a dream, I mean, one day, I was living a perfect and enviable life and the next thing I know, I’m stranded on this island, being hunted like an animal.After my near-death experience with those guys, I pleaded with Raymond to teach me how to defend myself, I want to be able to fight them off even when Raymond is not available. He cant come running to save me every time, when things get tough, I want to be able to stand and fight off these guys, I wan’t to hurt them as much as they have hurt me.At first, he refused to train me, he said he was trained to serve the Trent's, not hitting them repeatedly in the name of training. I had to force him to do it, I practically ordered him to do it, threatening him to do it or forget about serving the Trent. I know, I sho
Nathan’s POVFive days,That is how long we have been hiding out in this fucking camp. The plane did not come as we expected. They did not keep up with their usual time, they are breaking protocol for the first time since we got trapped on this island. I don’t know why this is happening now, it is so unexpected, we never planned for this, and now we are stuck here in the camp of our enemies. I don’t know if this is merely a coincidence, I have no idea why it is happening this way, I was so sure that we would get out of this island three days ago, we had everything we needed to escape. Our plans were foolproof and we have started implementation already. Five days ago, we left our hideout and snuck into the camp of the Schwartz brothers. We had already mapped out their campsite the day before, we know the layout of the surroundings and their schedule. It was so easy for us to sneak in and hide in their midst, hiding in plain sight. We hid in their storehouse that is built underground,
Travis’s POV“I played my part Travis, I did everything you asked. You have no right to push me aside this way, you can’t do this to me. You need me, Travis, you know you do. One word from me and the whole city would be at your doorstep seeking justice for Nathan. I won’t let you get away with this, I won’t let you trick me this way, I’ll fucking kill you?!” Ariel yelled furiously as my boys kicked her out of my house. The slutty bitch!She actually thought that we are now partners, she had the effrontery to walk into my house and demand for Nathans shares in the company, she actually wants me to hand over everything that Nathan had to her, can you believe that, I mean, is she fucking high on drugs or something. What on earth would make her think that I would ever hand over my inheritance to her, I fucking planned it all, me and no one else. Although I’ll have to admit that she had played a big role in convincing his family and the public that he is dead indeed. I watched her carry h
