Dane knocked at the door again hoping Red would answer this time. He was tired of standing outside and waiting. He had been waiting for so long.
He knocked again and then again.
Still no answer, heaving a sigh he turned to leave the place when the door clicked open.
He turned back to see a tired looking Red peeking out behind the door.
Red's messy face stared at him. Some hair strands were on her forehead which wrinkled in a frown, her face was sweaty with drooping eyes and evident bags under.
"What do you want?" She sighed, "Don't stare at me like that."
"If there was a representation of a mess, you would be it." Dane tried to make a joke but Red frowned more, it didn't work, "I came to talk, you have been MIA." He said seeing his attempts at
The continuous tone of the phone ringing irritated the hell out of Dane. He ignored it like he had done for the first few times and nestled into the bed.But the caller wasn't ready to let Dane be, he called repeatedly and so with curses flying out of his mouth, he turned, took the phone and picked the call without checking who it was."Who the hell are you from the pits of hell, curse you! It better be fucking important or I will pull out your fucking eyeballs and feed them to you!" He yelled."When I die take care of my mother, don't knock my sister up without taking her to the alter or my ghost would hunt you and the most important of all, do not fucking touch my Ferrari!" Daniel growled, "Good morning to you too.""Why are you talking about death?" Dane yawned, "Why did you call this early? It's fucking 7:00AM.""Red asked me to teach her how to
"Remember." He breathed, "Slow and steady."Red angrily brought the car to a halt, "You are distracting me!" She growled, "Be shut!"How can I be shut when my life is in your hands? He wanted to tell her but instead he actually kept shut.Red gripped the wheels again tightly with both hands, she put the gear back in reverse and peddled the accelerator gently while focusing her gaze on the side mirror. Daniel smiled as he watched her intently. She looked cute driving and he would have allowed her do it often if his life wouldn't be on the line all the time.He was amused at the ways her lips were folded as she tried her best to control the automobile machine.A sudden halt stole him from his thoughts."Why did you stop Red?" He asked blinking, "You were getting it."
Red threw the mascara on the table already really frustrated with the whole make up thingy.This was the first time she ever really bothered with such things. she wanted to look really good for her first date with Daniel and she was terribly bad at make up.Okay, bad would be an understatement.She picked up the mascara and tried again, bringing the gooey wand closer to her lashes, she tried not to blink.She brought it closer and closer, it got to the perfect position. She tried swiping her upper lash but ended up blinking in the process and staining her face.Fuck! She swore under her breath and threw the mascara on the table again.From the corner she heard Sarah giggle."What the hell is funny?" She turned to face her friend angrily, "Why are you laughing?" &n
Red stormed out of the restaurant filled with rage. She was mad, very mad and the next thought on her mind was to pull out her phone and send Daniel a very nasty break up text.She opened her purse, brought the phone out and set to typing.'You are a big buffon Daniel! I hate you and your guts! I never want to see you ever again in this lifetime and certainly not the next, I hope you die of STI's and your dick shrinks! Yours hatefully, Red!' She clicked send even though the text was childish to her, stuffing her phone back in her purse. She began walking again."I took a very long clean bath for this date!" She growled lowly to herself stomping angrily as she walked, "I waxed! Plucked my brows! Shaved! I even attempted make up! I tried to be early! I bought a new dress! I wore these stupid shoes!" She yelled reaching down to ge
Daniel turned over on the bed and his eyes met Red's sleepy face.He cracked a smile as he stared at her face. Her lashes formed slight shadows over her eye area, her cheeks were rosy and her lips were pouted.She looked like an angel in her sleep.If only she was totally that in reality, He chuckled to him self at his thought before bending his head slightly and placing a kiss on her lips.She stirred and he kissed her again."Good Morning." She moaned, "Hey baby."Daniel wrapped his arms around her, "Good morning love." He placed a kiss on her forehead before removing his arms from her and leaving the bed."Where are you going?" Red asked him sitting up, she was widely awake now, "Come back to bed." She patted his side of the bed which felt warm under her palm."I have to go and make breakfast." He said g
Mrs Hart couldn't help Daniel keep his emotions in check as he had begun to shed tears again. She could understand, she had been in this position before and almost everyday of her life.Red had been operated immediately she was rushed to the hospital that day and it took three days for her to wake up and she was okay now but Daniel couldn't get out if his emotional state.They were outside as Red was asleep and they wanted to give her enough time to rest."God mum!" He sobbed, "What if something really bad had happened to her? What if she hadn't woken up? What if she wa..." He couldn't continue as his mother stopped him."Shh." She rubbed his shoulders while silenscing him, "Forget the what if's dear." She advised, "She's okay now and that's what matters.""I am back." They both looked up and saw Dane coming towards them, "I got as many fruits as possible."He placed them on the bench they wer
Paparazzi! Flashes of light came from the camera lenses of the reporters while the surging crowd screamed his name, her name."What in the world?" Daniel muttered under his breath as he was continually hit by the bright lights.He had never expected them to be here, his coming was suppose to be a secret and he had no idea how Red was going to react to this."Who are all these people?" Red asked clutching his arm tightly as they descended from the jet stairs."Paparazzi." Daniel answered her, "Don't freak out Ju..." He stopped talking as he saw Red free his arm, run down the flight of stairs and straight to the crowd. Red stroke a pose as she had seen in the magazines. She stood with caution as she didn't want to strain her abdomi
*warning, mild bloody scene* Daniel grimaced harshly as Red yelled and at the same time Dane had dug the tweezers in him again."Fuck!" He yelled out, "Isn't it fucking out yet?" He asked alarmed that the procedure was taking longer than usual.He gazed up at Red and their eyes met again, he could see past the pain in his own eyes that hers were teary.He didn't want her to come over and meet him like this. He had thought they would be done with the wound but unfortunately they weren't and now he had to think of an explanation to why he was badly wounded."Oh my God Daniel!" Red overcame her shock and rushed to his side trying not to get sickened by the sight and smell of blood."Red." He smiled through the pain trying to stop her from worryi

A year and some months later."Daniel! Red!" Dane yelled his face contorting in anger and embarrassment, "Come and look what your child did!" He cried out as he felt more of the liquid seeping through his pants.The little girl giggled at him revealing her milk teeth with her thumb stuck in her mouth, "D...D..." She chanted.Dane growled at her."Why are you growling at my child?!" A very furious Red rushed into the room as she tried to balance her crown on her head, "I would hang you!"The child chuckled as if agreeing with her mother as she bubbled with excitement when Red approached."Like daughter like mother!" He growled, "She wet herself on me jeez, I don't want to do this anymore!""No! No!" Daniel walked into the room grinning at his best friend's predicament, "You came in minutes ago whining about how we do not let you spend time with the
"Daniel!" His name came from her lips in a whispered shock. She couldn't believe he was right there clutching to her window looking really tired. He looked haggard making her wonder what he had gone through to get to her. His hair was a mess and she could see leaves and twigs sticking out of it. His face had some bruises and his eyes spelt tired.He looked like the male version of an old hag."Well, look what the cat dragged in." She snorted with folded arms as she watched Daniel debate within himself if he should enter into the room or just stay clutched to the window."Why didn't a wolf drag me in instead?" He sassed back, "Can I come in?" He asked her as he watched her stand with folded arms in a very sheer night gown. He could feel his desire stir.Focus Daniel! Focus! He chided himself."Why do you need my permission to get in?" She smirked, "You already climbed up all the wa
Red could swear that she had heard Daniel calling her name but then again she thought she was hallucinating.It's not like he could just barge into the castle and demand that he wants me back in his life, She shook her head in disbelief, You are almost a Queen Red, you shouldn't be having such bizarre thoughts and imaginations."Does something ail you my dear?" The voice broke her from her thoughts and she looked at the person in front of her."No, nothing." She shook her head, "I just remembered something.""You can talk to me about anything you know." He persisted and Red was a bit irritated."Your Highness, prince Roland." She cleared her throat, "Could we proceed with the lunch?""Yes of course." He said and immediately dug into the food, "So, about my proposal, what do you think?"Red
Daniel thought he could just walked into the Castle, find Red, proclaim his undying love to her, she accepts him and boom they get married but boy, was he wrong.He couldn't believe the he was being dragged out of the palace premises by his hair and he was carried and thrown out landing face flat on the ground.He sat up with a groan rubbing his face as it ached, he hadn't even managed to get into the palace before he got caught and thrown out.He got up to his feet and and walked away from the castles gates. He had to make a phone call and also get food to eat. Dane couldn't stop squealing with laughter over the phone very much to Daniel's irritation. He had related his experience to him and he erupted in full blown laughter mocking his predicament."Can you stop laughing?" Dani
Daniel closed his laptop with a sigh. He leaned back on his chair with his hands folded behind his head. His gaze was fixated on his door half expecting Red to walk in ungracefully with a teasing smile on her lips and tinkling blue eyes filled with mischief.He knew that wasn't going to happen. Him expecting her to walk through that door like before. He had let her go out of anger and now he deeply regretted it.It's been days, weeks and months since he last saw Red. He hadn't seen the woman he loved for a very long time. He hadn't seen her long luscious red hair that shone brightly, he hadn't gazed into her blue eyes in a long time. Her voice was foreign to him now as he hadn't heard it in a long time. He missed her a whole lot and as time passed he had tried to reach her but she wanted nothing to do with him. She only spoke with Dane and sometimes the rest of the family. She had blocked him everywhere and changed lines and h
Red stared at Daniel silently willing him to say something but his mouth was sealed in a tight line. She saw how his eyes glowered in anger and betrayal as he looked at her."Say something please?" She licked her lips as they suddenly became dry, "You are scaring me." She watched his brows furrow."I don't understand what you just said Red." Daniel said to her shaking his head, "What do you mean?""I want you to say something, you aren't responding to what I told you earlier.""I want to hear it again." His voice was stern."I have parents and I am the crown princess of Cladonia.""You are suppose to be an orphan.""Well, I found out that I got parents." She shrugged."Why do I have a feeling that you have known about this for a long time but you chose to keep it away from me?" He said, "Prove me wrong please."
Daniel was alive! Red couldn't believe it as she sat next to the bed staring at him. He smiled at her with his eyes beaming and she reached out a finger tracing the seam of his lips."You are alive." It came out as a whisper, her eyes widening in excitement, "Oh my God Daniel, you are alive!" She got over her excitement and pulled him into a bone crushing hug."Easy." He gasped, "I just got out of surgery.""I am sorry." She pulled back and rested her head on his shoulder, "I am just so happy that you are alive." And with that she broke down into tears crying her heart out."Don't cry babe." He pulled her closer stroking her hair, "I am here now."Red couldn't stop crying. She had spent days hoping and praying for Daniel to live. She had seen him in the ICU with different tubes sticking out of his body. She had stood behind the glass looking through at him oblivious to what was happening around her as her eyes were
Lorenzo took long calm strides bringing him closer to them. He gazed at them with his glaring good eye, "What is wrong Grace?" He taunted, "You look pale, have you see a ghost?" He smirked. "No..." She tried to be calm, "I am just wondering why you are one eyed?" "Daniel did that to him." Hart said to her, "Instead of dying, he ended up one eyed." "Shut up Hart!" Lorenzo yelled in a fit of rage, "Keep blabbing and I will be sure to make your death slow and painful." "You are not killing my husband, you bastard!" Mrs Hart spat, "I wouldn't let you!" "I was a fool to let him live the first time but I also made sure to make his life hell." He laughed, "But now, I will be damned if I let him walk out of here alive. So, which of you shall I begin with?" He asked, "You?" He pointed the gun at Hart, "Or you?" The gun was moved to his wife, "Oh! I know! Let's play a game of shoot and dodge." "Leave Grace out of this, it's me you want." Hart pl
