FELICIA POV The night arrived, and Kalixo and I returned to the island. We continued to fish as he had promised. Kalixo gathered wood from the forest, while I picked fruits and placed them in a basket. I took a piece of cloth to lay on the ground, where we sat and gazed at the beautiful night sky, full of stars and the shimmering moon. I wondered why there were no guards tonight. "Where are your men?" I asked, settling onto the cloth. Kalixo, now tending to the wood he had gathered, arranged them as if we were setting up camp. "I sent them away because they have important tasks. I had some orders for them." I nodded. As the wood caught fire, Kalixo skewered the five fish he had caught and placed them by the flames. Then he sat beside me, took fruits from the basket, handed me an apple, and took one for himself. I smiled. "It's amazing and kind of surprising. Seeing you being like this," I took a bite of my apple. "And somehow, having a camping trip with apples. Don't you have mars

Another news erupted after it was found out that an eighteen-year-old boy has been missing for three days.Cedrick hurriedly descended from his office. The elevators were full, so he took the stairs. He held his cellphone and was currently talking on the phone. "Is what you're saying true?!""Yes," from the other line. "A woman was seen placing an envelope in the trash. She was wearing a hooded sweatshirt. She managed to disable all the CCTV cameras, but we obtained evidence from one of the CCTV cameras. In the footage, she destroyed the camera itself, unaware that it was still functioning. The CCTV footage we have is blurry, but it's still evident that it's her. Hooded sweatshirt and black pants. She placed the envelope a d

THIRD PERSON POV"Pa?!" Kalixo looked at the number he had called once more. It was the number of one of his trusted men. But? "Pa?! Dad, someone's chasing me! They're killing innocent people here. I just don't know if it's the Ferrers who are responsible because they harbor deep anger toward us—""I sent them," his father's simple statement."Dad, come on. No jokes—""Kalixoooo!!!!" Kalixo's eyes widened upon hearing Felicia's scream on the other end of the line. He could hear his father cursing and a loud slap. It seemed like his father had hit Felicia."Dad?! Dad, what's happening—""Join my men if you don't want something to happen to the woman you love."Shit! What the heck is happening?!!!"Dad?! What are you talking about?!""Join us or I'll kill Avimayor?!"

FELICIA POVI opened my eyes, dark embraced me. Where am I?! I tried to stood but my head bumped into something."Aww!" If it didn't happened, I wouldn't know how hurt my head is. "What the hell?!"My head felt like was about to explode. I tried to touch my forehead, but to my surprise, a sticky liquid made my chest dive into horror. I remember the car accident. My hands started to tremble in fear upon seeing how the truck immediately struck our car.I spread my hands to try feeling my surroundings. When I felt a bit warm walls. What is this?

FELICIA POVMy feet were throbbing in pain. I had nothing on my feet to protect them.I almost got hit by that bullet. I didn't know who fired it, but I knew it came from the ones chasing me."Hey! Don't shoot! We need her alive."In truth, how important was my life to these pursuers? What did I possess that was so valuable?"She's still alive even if she's hit in the side!"Oh no, they were relentless now. Even though I knew there was no way I could run faster, I pushed myself to keep running. My knees were trembling, but I didn't pay much attention to it. My focus was solely on escaping. Where was Kalixo? That person was another story. What should I expect from them? Why am I still holding on?I shook my head. I shouldn't be thinking about that person anymore. I knew there was a weightier reason why these people were so desperate to capture me. And why did I become their chosen trophy? Why me?My thoughts were abruptly interrupted as a black car pulled up in front of me. Without a w

FELICIA POV We arrived at what they called the Palace. It's massive compared to the mansion Kalixo has on the island.The car circled around a grand fountain. Despite the late hour, the surroundings weren't dim due to the numerous lights. Different hues of red, blue, and white danced within the fountain, creating a mesmerizing sight.We stepped out of the car... or rather, I was practically dragged out. "Ouch, what the heck!" I complained. I'm starting to lose my patience.My whole body ached, and the throbbing was intensified by the heat in my head! Calm down, Felicia, just calm down. Their time will come. Hold back for now. Endure it, for now.There's a slight chill in the air outside now. The night is getting deeper.There were numerous people surrounding the area. Looking up from below, I examined the height of the balcony, still guarded. None of them wore masks, unlike Kalixo's men, this old man, and Ferrer's. Whose men were those earlier, chasing after me? They're definitely no

Felicia's POV I woke up feeling a warm body enveloping me. It's Kalixo. We had a great night, and I'd be lying if I said I didn't miss his husky voice whispering my name. It seemed like my name was the most beautiful in the world. Thinking he was still asleep, I lifted my head to find him already looking at me, a smile on his face. "Good morning, my queen," he greeted, planting a small kiss on my forehead. I smiled. But my smile faded as I remembered Deokwa, and Kalixo and I discussed his decision to surrender to the police and reveal everything he knew. [Flashback] I sat on the bed after ending a call with Deokwa. I couldn't fathom how he found out Kalixo was here. If it was Deokwa, it wasn't impossible that he had eyes on me everywhere I went. Kalixo sat beside me. "Tomorrow, I'll tell the truth." I looked at him. "Wh-What?" "I don't want to see that pain, fear, and anxiety in your eyes, Felicia. My lies need to stop. I never truly protected you; it was a wrong decision. Now,

Felicia's POVAfter my conversation with Dad, I couldn't bring myself to eat the food he had bought for me. I'm not angry with him; it's just that the information he shared hasn't fully sunk in yet.As I was about to ascend the stairs, I suddenly felt a buzz at the top of my head. I quickly turned towards my room. Who could it be? There couldn't be any commotion here with Dad around."Felicia, honey—""Yes, Dad!" I replied, raising my voice, which startled him since he was right behind me, carrying the food.His mouth fell agape. "U-Uh, let's just put this in your room's fridge—""I've got it, Dad!" I said with a wide smile. "Don't worry, everything is fine!"Dad blinked three times. "E-Everything is... is fine...?""Yes! Absolutely! I'll take care of it. Thank you!" I immediately grabbed the plastic bags and went upstairs.Dad was left scratching his head in bewilderment. When I reached my door, I realized it was locked from the inside. I raised my hand to turn the doorknob. Now, the

Felicia's PerspectiveCedrick and I had finally returned home. The house was heavily guarded, as we had recently hired a team of butlers. Tomorrow marked a significant day, the day when I would reveal the truth to everyone, including... Kalixo.A sudden pang in my chest gripped me, but I brushed it aside. It no longer mattered.Technically, I wouldn't be revealing it alone. I would be joined by Cedrick and Rose. Rose would present the information, and I would second every statement and confirm the details. I would also work from home, as it was deemed too risky for me to venture outside. And indeed, it was a dangerous world out there."Felicia, your father and I are going out for a bit," Mommy announced.I was in the living room, watching the news. The city had fallen silent, especially now that those who had been with me in captivity had returned. Thankfully, they had been instructed not to disclose anything about me."Where are you headed, Mommy?" I inquired."Your father will be vi

FELICIA'S PERSPECTIVEWith resolve, I unveiled the truth. "My brother concealed that drug. I conducted in-depth research on it and stumbled upon a groundbreaking chemical with the potential to revolutionize human health. I refrained from using it, awaiting the collaboration of other experts in the field. My investigations took place in my perfume laboratory. Rest assured, it is well-secured. Only my secretary has access due to her exceptional genetics."Cedrick interjected with a question, his tone earnest. "Felicia, I have a query. Who, if I may ask, was the fortunate individual who received the drug successfully?"I hesitated, fully aware of the magnitude of this revelation in his life. "I will disclose that information at a more opportune moment. For now, our focus must be on more pressing matters. The reason they pursue me is the possession of the formula. I'll compile a list of involved parties, recognizing that some may no longer be among the living."As I commenced typing the n

FELICIA POV"Are you sure about your decision, Felicia?" Cedrick asked me. We were currently in the living room, joined by my parents and his family. I had told them that today was the day I planned to reveal everything, and I wouldn't postpone it any longer.I nodded. "I am strong, and there's nothing wrong with me. Besides, that's the whole point of all this—the truth. I can't stay here and keep quiet any longer because we don't know what they're planning. We're not certain."My father sighed deeply. "If that's truly your decision, daughter, I won't stop you. Just make sure, my child, that you stay by Cedrick's side no matter what happens."Cedrick's wife held my hand. She didn't say a word, just gave me a reassuring smile. I held onto her hand as a reminder that everything would be okay."Don't worry. I'm here now, and they won't dare harm me because they need me," I said confidently.My mother furrowed her brow. "What do you mean, child?"I simply smiled in response.--As soon as

Felicia POVMy feet felt numb after the almost 30 minutes of walking and running through the woods. Blood and bodies of dead people spread all over the woods. It's a creel, a hella creepy place that old man made."Montenegro said no one will be able to see us if we'll take the path. I doubt that at first but it seemed like he's telling truth. I wonder where did the other people go," Cedrick took a glance on me. "We're here. You can explain everything to me now,"I sighed. We stopped on our tracks. We reached an empty road and a car hidden in the bushes. "Are we going to wait for your friend investigator?""Nope. She already plotted something. Minutes by now, reinforcements are coming. I need you to be safe. Let's go," he said and led me inside the car. Car is a bit old. Cedrick started it and immediately drive. It works well despite it's rusty appearance. "Explain, Felicia," he added, as he drives the car. I sighed. "I've been searching for those people who killed my brother Leo. T

FELICIA POV A certain noise woke up my entire body system. Someone is screaming, and a strange vibration made my heart pound into its beat. When I fully opened my eyes, it turned out that it isn't coming from my place. It's in another cell. And I was separated from the others. . .or might be. . .an another room? "Let me out of here! Let me talk to her!!" Its a voice of a woman. "Shut up!" I heard from a man. I roamed my eyes around the cell. It's different. This isn't the usual cell I'm at before. There's no one but me in this place. The temperature in here gave me goosebumps already. As I sit myself up, I tried to remember what happened before I woke up and see myself in here. It was clearly on my mind that I passed out when I got panic attack after watching the huge screen playing live videos of people killing each other. I may not know the real reason of my triggers but it could definitely be one of the reason why I wanted the Boss to finished his delusions. He is a crazy psy

FELICIA POV Duguang collapsed onto the floor, with Kalixo still clutching his side where my small knife had found its mark. It paled in comparison to the horrors they had inflicted on my brother Leo. With a complete lack of emotion, I turned to the Boss, who now wore a sinister grin while gripping his katana. "Finally, the true colors of an Avimayor emerge. I had a feeling Leo entrusted that to you. And I refuse to believe it's gone," he taunted. A glint emanated from the golden necklace hanging around his neck. A sudden sense of dread washed over me, and the hairs on my neck stood on end as I sensed a looming, shadowy presence. In the blink of an eye, the Boss vanished from my sight. "I never thought you could do that to my protege," he remarked. Protege? Kalixo? They were both heartless! I spun around, ready to strike, but the Boss had disappeared as if I had swiped at thin air. Panic began to creep in as I searched frantically, unable to locate him or sense his presence. Could

FELICIA POVDid Kalixo truly no longer care about me? Should I truly believe in the words he had just uttered? It hurt, the pain was so overwhelming that I could hardly tear my gaze away from his emotionless eyes. Was it really that easy for him to cast me aside?He walked slowly towards me, head held high, our gazes never parting. I couldn't fathom why I almost recoiled when he trapped me between his arms against the wall, his piercing stare moving from my eyes to my nose, then my lips, and back to my eyes. I couldn't help but gasp when I heard the sound of him drawing a knife from the wall. He then walked away from me and turned his back."You're still just a woman, Avimayor," the old man suddenly interjected, causing me to avert my gaze from Kalixo's imposing figure. "Do you really think you stand a chance against him?"I turned to the old man in annoyance, then quickly ran towards him and leaped onto a table, launching myself in his direction. He managed to evade me, but my table-
