The Mark 84. Escape
I carefully held my breath, making my movements slow and steady as I reached over to mute the machine. I managed to do the first one flawlessly. I then reached over and muted the second. Once the machines were muted, I removed the IV carefully from my arm. I used the blanket to cover the blood that came out and checked it soon after. My arm had thankfully stopped bleeding, only a small trickle had come out. I shifted my legs off the bed and tried standing up. It wasn't easy at first, but thankfully my legs began to work with me rather quickly. I looked around the room for anything that I could use. Unfortunately, the only thing I could find was a pair of scrub pants in the bathroom. They seemed to be clean and were probably there for me once I had a chance to shower. I wished there were shoes, however, I wasn't so lucky. I snuck up towards the door, and silently checked to see where all the guards were. Unfortunately, there were two guards stationed outside of my room. So escaping

...Zane POV...We had been at this for over an hour now. Jace was giving me a crash course into being a spy. He was teaching me everything I needed to know so that way I would be safe once I was out there. Right now we were going over how to use a gun. I've never so much as looked at one before. Guns were not my thing. So to be holding one was a completely different experience altogether. I couldn't explain why, but I started to feel a bit antzy. I put the gun down on the table, much to Jace's dismay."What are you doing?" He asked."I just need to check on my brother." I stated. I couldn't even explain why. Only that for some reason I felt like something was wrong.I walked out of the room, walking directly towards Damian's room. Jace was quick behind me, but remained in the hallway as I entered Damian's room. I looked into the room, expecting my brother to be sleeping. So call me surprised when I walked into his room to see it abandoned."Where did my brother go?" I ask.Jace immed

Time seemed to stop as I looked at the gun pointed at my head. Afraid of making any sudden movements that would make his trigger finger twitch, ending me here and now."Now. I think you have something I'm after." Blaze hissed."I don't. I swear. I don't have anything you'd want." I replied, feigning ignorance."I don't believe that." Blaze remarked."It's true. I have nothing you'd want.""And what is it you think I want?" Blaze asked, making me turn my head slightly as if trying to read his mind."See now... I know you have exactly what I'm looking for. If you didn't, then why would you be so adamant to come here of all places? When you should be resting in the hospital." Blaze remarked, stepping closer to me. Not once moving the gun even a fraction of a millimetre away from me."I was just getting some clothes. As you can see there's not a good selection at the hospital. I thought Haley might want some as well.""Mhmm. So that's why you evaded your guards and snuck out of the buildi

“All this time! You were the mole! You’re the one that split us apart! And for what?!” I shouted, no longer able to contain my fury.“For what?” She asked, suddenly looking straight at me.”“I did all this because I love you. And you used to love me before that b*tch got here!“ She shouted.“Have you lost your f*cking mind? I never loved you, and you never loved me. It was just sex and nothing more. You were nothing more to me than a decent lay. But after being with Haley, I realized you weren’t even that!” I shouted, pissed that she was the one behind all of this.Blaze laughed at my confession, which only seemed to annoy Sadie all the more.“You don’t mean that.” She whimpered.“Let me get this through that thick skull of yours. I have never loved you. You never wanted me, but the lifestyle being with me gives you. You want fame and power. You never loved me. And you’re kidding yourself now, believing otherwise.” I say.“Take it back!” She shouts.However, by this point I had stoppe

...Haley POV...I felt as though I was floating on a cloud. Nothing made sense. I didn't know where I was or why I was here."Hello?" I called out, hoping someone would hear me. However, the air around me remained silent.I could hear this annoying beeping in my head, but no idea where it was coming from. I looked around, only to see nothing. I focus on my other senses, hoping to be able to pick up something familiar.Tingles begin to erupt from my skin, immediately making me think of Damian. He's the only one that has ever been able to make me feel that way. I twist myself closer to the sensation, hoping to get closer to Damian. I feel the familiar warmth of his body spread into my own and find my eyes rowing tired. I relax into the comfort of his embrace.An alarm ringing wakes me from my sleep. I open my eyes trying to figure out where the sound is coming from, only to be surrounded by darkness yet again. I cover my ears wanting the alarm to stop. What's going on? Where am I? Where

When I woke up, my head had stopped pounding. I could still hear the faint beeping, but luckily it had quieted down. It was no longer so loud that I couldn't concentrate on anything else. I smile as I see Damian enter our room. Making me realize that we were back in Damian's condo. A place that felt like home to me. Damian walks over to me and places a kiss on my lips as he sits on the bed next to me."How are you feeling?" He asks.I contemplate his question as I try to think of an answer."The doctor said you may be in pain for a while. Do you remember what happened?" He asks.I tilt my head in confusion."No. What happened?" I ask."You were in an accident. You were on your way back home when you were struck by another car." Damian explains.I nod my head in understanding. "What about Colton? Is he ok?" I ask."Colton? Who's Colton?" "My driver. Remember the one you hired to be my personal driver?" I reply, not quite sure how Damian forgot him. Damian has always been nothing but

It seemed like forever before Doctor Matthews finally left her room along with the nurses. Doctor Matthews walked me into her room, closing the door before speaking."Is everything ok?" I ask."Yes. Actually, that's why I brought you in. We believe Haley responded to your proximity to her.""What? How?" I ask."We're not entirely sure, but from the time you were with her, we were able to detect brain functionality. We think your presence helped to bring her back.""Bring her back? Does that mean she's awake?" I ask."No. I'm sorry, but no, she's not awake. But we think that if you spend more time with her, we might be able to bring her back.""What do you mean? I'm feeling a bit lost here.""Studies have shown that when people are placed in a coma, their brain helps to calm the person by using memories to create a sort of reality for them. Many patients have said that they never realized they were in a coma, as it didn't feel as though time had stopped.""Is that a bad thing?" I ask.

I continue running, not caring where I go. I just need to be away from here. Wherever here is. Why was this happening? What's going on? Why do I keep waking up in places, but with no idea of what's going on? It's like I know what should be happening, but nothing is the way it should be. I'm so confused by what's going on. Part of me wishes to see Damian, while another part of me wishes to never see him again.The beeping becomes louder until I find myself surrounded by darkness once more. I cover my ears wishing for it to stop when another sound takes over. The beeping begins to subside as I find myself in my condo in New York. I hear someone knock on the door, and instantly run to go grab it. There in front of me is Jessica holding a little boy. My eyes grow wide in realization."MAVERICK!" I call out as happy tears run down my cheek.Jessica smiles as she walks into my condo, handing Maverick over to me carefully. "Somebodies happy to see you." She coos to Maverick as she places hi

The Mark 119. Epilogue
...Fifteen Years Later......Haley POV...It's hard to believe that Damian and I have been married for fifteen years already. So much has happened in such a short amount of time. We experienced so many firsts together. First the birth of the twins, their first steps, as well as Sienna's first steps. Then there was preschool, middle school, high school, along with so many more precious memories. I couldn't believe how fast time had gone by. It seemed as though we were just saying our vows, but as I look at our kids playing in the backyard, a smile creeps on my face.I still remember that day as if it was yesterday. After our impromptu wedding, Damian took me aside to explain what had happened. He was just amazed that I had pulled it off without a hitch. Little did he realize how much help I received. After his initial shock wore off, I decided to explain to him why I had chosen that particular venue for our wedding. When he realized that the home we were at was ours, he was over the mo
The Mark 118. I Now Pronounce You
I felt on edge. Was I seeing properly? When I had taken the turn around the house, I had face to face with a large crowd. They all immediately jumped to their chairs and clapped. My eyes went wide in astonishment. What in the sam's blazes was going on right now?My eyes scanned the crowd which is when I noticed a bunch of familiar faces. I saw Haley's parents holding Sienna, Luca, Jace, Zach, as well as a bunch of Haley's relatives. I recognized a bunch of our friends faces before turning to see what looked like a stage. The entire location looked like it was decorated for a wedding. But what on earth was going on?Zane passed Maverick over to Zach before he made his way over to me. "Are you ready?" He asks, clapping me on the back."For what? What's going on?" I ask."Why don't you coo and find out?" Zane remarks, pulling me with him down the aisle towards the stage. He pushes me into place as I stand frozen, unable to move. My mind is spinning a million miles a minute. It's as if
The Mark 117. Boys Day Out
...Two Weeks Later...Two weeks have passed from one of the worst emotional rollercoasters of my life. Just when I thought I was at the lowest point in my life, Haley surprised me with two incredible miracles. We were set to have twin boys. I couldn't be happier. Haley didn't mind either way. She was a proud mama regardless of their genders. The odd part of our story, was that we were about to have child three and four, and yet neither of us had been present for every birth. I missed the first one. Haley missed the second. So neither of us really knew what to expect. We decided not to dwell on it, and treat as it should be. Our first pregnancy together.I was looking forward to experiencing everything with her. I so desperately wanted it to be perfect. Regardless, as long as we had each other, I knew it would be."So, are you ever going to tell me where you were that day?" I ask."How about tomorrow?" She says, making me turn towards her surprised. I hadn't expected her to give in so
The Mark 116. Bad Actor
By the time we got to the hospital, I was an absolute mess. I was terrified from the lack of the unknown. Was Haley ok? What about Sienna? The moment we arrived at the hospital, Sienna was taken away deeper into the hospital so they could run some tests. They had me go to a waiting area where they bring Sienna once they discovered what was wrong with her. I held Maverick in my arms, using him as a life support. If it wasn't for him right now, I doubt I would be standing up. They would need to put me in a bed as well, as my nerves were all over the place. My worry over both Sienna and Haley had gone to extremes. My mind was swirling with all the what-ifs. Was Haley in trouble? Did the Cobras go after her? Has she been kidnapped? Worse? "Mr. Stone?" As if that wasn't enough, my mind continued to plague me with fears over Sienna. What if I got to her too late? What will happen to her? Will she survive? Will she grow up to have a normal life? What did I do wrong? Was it something I di
The Mark 115. Jeopardy
...A Few Months Later...The construction on our new house was coming along swimmingly. With my connections, I had managed to secure some of the best people for this project. I worked well with Taylor, our project manager. He had so many great ideas that I could incorporate into my design. I was like a kid in a candy store. We made a great team. I would constantly bounce ideas off of him, and he would give me his input. Sometimes coming up with an even better solution. I was so happy to have him. With his insight, we had designed several hidden rooms, such as a play room, a room for the kids to hang out when they're older, even a butlers pantry. Taylor even came up with a secret passageway between the kids rooms. So that they could sneak into each others rooms. I was so thrilled with how well everything was coming along. It wouldn't be long for the house to completed at this rate. I couldn't wait to show Damian. I knew he was growing suspicious, as I was leaving the house more freque
The Mark 114. New Plans
My conversation with Damian from last night was ringing through my mind. I knew he was stressed, but he is good at hiding it from me. I wanted to help him, but when it came to his work, there wasn't much I could do. My strengths weren't in the tech industry. I was an architect.Wait... I'm an architect. I say to myself, as if reminding myself of my talent. Which is when it hit me. I wanted to take something off of Damian's plate. If I couldn't help him at the office, then I would help him with our home. I quickly got dressed then grabbed my cell phone. I called Colton to come pick me up then had him take me to our realtors office. I had our realtor look into various locations, and then once we came up with a list, we toured each and every one of them.Just before noon, I found the one I'd been searching for. It was a secluded location not far from the main city centre. It was situated right on the lake, and boasted a stunning private sand beach. I knew the moment y eyes landed on it,
The Mark 113. Late Night Fun
…Haley POV…I woke up during the night to find Damian not in bed. I walked to the bathroom figuring he must be in there, only to find it empty. Realizing that he wasn’t in our room, I went to check on Maverick and Sienna, wondering if Damian had gone to check on them, however, both were sleeping soundly. I was about to head to the kitchen, when I saw a glow coming from the office. I walked inside, to see Damian fast asleep at his desk, his head buried in a mound of paperwork.“Dame.” I whisper while silently shaking him. However, to my surprise he doesn’t wake up.“Dame?” I question, a little louder this time, however, yet again, still no movement. I get on my knees before him, and run my hand through his hair. I feel him shift slightly, until he begins to stir.“Hmm?” He moans, as he turns to look at me.“Why don’t you come to bed?” I suggest, standing up to crawl onto his lap.I continue to stroke his head as his hands wrap around my waist. He buried his head in my neck, as he’s
The Mark 112. Now Hiring
Damian's phone ringing woke us up the next morning. It seemed as though a critical file that needed to be sent to finalize a deal had gone missing, meaning that Damian would have to go to the office to investigate it.Damian sighed, then kissed me on the forehead before heading to the bathroom. I couldn't help myself. I turned around in the bed to watch him as he walked towards the shower."I can feel you staring." He says, without looking at me."What are you going to do about it?" I remark. I can't help it. I love looking at his ass. It's so perfect, talk about eye candy."I can't do anything right now. But just know that when I get back, I expect you naked and willing on this bed for me." Damian shouts from the bathroom. I get out of bed and follow him into the bathroom. He's already in the shower as I enter, so he's unable to hear my silent footsteps as I approach.I walk into the shower behind him, and wrap my arms around his waist, reaching down for his member. "And what if I'm
The Mark 111. Adult Activities
I looked up to see Damian hover above me. I crawl backwards further into our King mattress. Damian mimics my moves as he comes closer to me. He tosses his shirt to the ground, as he hovers above me. I feel his bulge against my core, making my head tilt back in anticipation."Please." I whisper, reaching for the waistband of his pants in hopes of sliding them off."Please what?" He responds back, as he places kisses along my chest. He squeezes one of my nipples with his hand as he moves higher to kiss my neck. I can feel him sucking on it, making me wet down below. I tilt my head back further into the pillow as I give into his assault."Damian. Please." I find myself begging as I claw at his pants, trying to remove them from his waist. In one fluid motion, Damian manages to not only drop his pants but also remove his boxers, freeing his member. He traces his member along my core, teasingly.I reach for it, to push it inside me when Damian's hands reach for my wrist, pulling my hand aw
