ELENA'S POVMy eyes flew open and I felt a sudden wave of headache which made me confused for I didn't even know why I was, I tried to get up but someone's hands were against my waist which was weird because I don't have anyone that I sleep with in the same bed space.I didn't want to scream so I slowly turned around and saw Ciro peacefully sleeping behind me which made me realize that I was in his jail cell, in the middle of the night and how I was still in here I can't figure it out."Ciro?""I'm already awake." his voice made a jump "...Sorry for startling you." he let go of my waist and stood up before I did the same thing."How am I still here?""Because you came in here drunk this morning.""Drunk?""You ordered tea from the shop at the end of the street. That shop doesn't sell tea but rather alcohol and I don't know if your sense of smell got lost there but you drank it and goodness! Don't you dare ever drink again especially when you are coming here.""I'm sorry, I didn't..."
ELENA'S POVThe moment I opened the door to the house, Carolina attacked me and as though I wasn't expecting it I panicked and I knew too well that she noticed and I was screwed."Are you ok?" She asked as she move away"Yeah, I just got startled." I lied and she gave me a look which I knew too well."Firstly, you never panic even if I attack you. Secondly you are such a bad liar now how about you tell me what happened there.""It's nothing, I just got drunk accidentally.""He touched you." I froze the moment I heard that I turned to look at her like I was hurt by what she said."No he didn't." I continued to walk inside and I heard her shut the door."Elena, he touched you and he tried to do...""No he didn't.""You wouldn't sleep with anyone because even the thought of that terrifies you, what makes you think you could freeze and panic the moment I touch you and I wouldn't know that someone tried it again?" I burst into tears as I went on my knees in regret, shame name it all. I w
CIRO'S POVIt's been two weeks since Elena came here and sleeping has been the hardest thing I had to do. I couldn't sleep even if I badly needed it. All I did was pace from left to right. I had asked Griffin if she was in town but he had no idea either.Sitting down on my rocky bed and rock myself back and forth while thinking of what I did to her, I don't know why I always did that whenever I was close to her, the first time I kissed her it wasn't an accident I had done on purpose and though she was angry she was also in shock that I did it.I had covered everything up in a smile because I was just teasing her like I did to every girl that chooses to do business or anything with me. She happened to be my psychiatrist and she was nothing like I expected.Trust me I was not happy that I got a psychiatrist because I wanted to be left alone like I always wanted to be ever since I was child for I was left alone but she was hit headed and didn't want to leave me alone.I was completely fl
ELENA'S POV"What happened to him? And what took you to the cell?""I don't know if you knew where you went and while I was talking to him he went unconscious, he hasn't slept in days and he doubts if he has eaten.""What did the doctor say?""He is malnutritious and that he hasn't had rest in a while." We got into the car and I drove out of the driveway and down the familiar path of the hospital."Ciro eats and sleeps on a daily basis, yeah I know that he doesn't eat breakfast sometimes and that's because he is irritated but why hasn't eaten for days and no one complained about it because someone must have noticed he wasn't eating.""Perhaps he has been worried.""Worried?! About what?""You! You kept everyone in suspense of where you were and imagine the situation that he is in. He did something to you and he badly wanted to apologize again and again till you forgive him for what he did to you.""Does he really think I'll be happy if he doesn't sleep and eat?""Elena why can't you s
CIRO'S POVMy eyes flew open as I heard the sound of the door opening and Elena walked in along with Griffin and his keys, these two people will be the end of me without a doubt, I just asked for a moment but no the minute they live they walk bad in like I didn't ask them to leave me alone seconds ago."What is it now?" "You're going home." my eyes lit up at the sound of that, I was finally getting out of this crappy place and going back to the comfort of my darkness."Thank the heavens for finally answering my prayers." "You are so dramatic.""Oh hell no! That's not the case, this place smells like medicine, there's no one to pick a fight with, there's no warden to trouble, Griffin over here can bore someone to death and your voice keeps annoying me every single day." she gasped."I am awfully offended by your words, that's not a way to talk to a woman!" "Well I think I don't remember reading a book of etiquette to learn that, I didn't know who my mother was and my father was a ba
ANTON'S POVI hung up and immediately walked out of the house. I might not know Elena that much but if there's one thing I learnt while having conversations with my father then it's the fact that he does joke with her patients no matter who it was except for Keith who she wouldn't even go near.The moment I got to the hospital I saw them cleaning the blood traces. The FBI's and police men were allowed to shock the prisoner when extremely angry and shocking was really something that Ciro was used to but no one was allowed to do that when the patient is under medications or being treated at hospital before it might cause an effect.Walking towards Elena's cabin I came across my father and he furrowed his eyebrows in confusion as to why I was there."What's going on?""It's the FBI and Ciro, Elena called me.""Why?""You know how Elena can really be about her patient and she already threatened to kill the FBI for what he had done.""Is she crazy?""Not at all, she cares and the FBI was c
ELENA'S POVStaring at the FBI agent, who had initiated the shock on Ciro that led him to coma, there is this irresistible urge within me to strangle him to death, but with the presence of Anton, I had to keep my emotions in check."You do know that your act today was very unprofessional?" Anton asked the young man, who looked like he could pass out immediately. "Apologies sir, there was every reasonable doubt to believe he was going to act dangerously" His statement triggered the hidden anger beneath, that i didn't know when. I moved forward to smack him in the face."Accepted that Ciro is the world's deadliest criminal, but I have constantly revealed the fact that he has emotion and this makes him human..." The FBI agent, who had Caleb written in his tag, had a look of remorse "Ordinarily, you would lose your job at the spot, but Anton has decided that if Ciro is able to wake up and no harm is recorded, then you keep your job. Otherwise you are going to have to drop your badge" "G
Elena P.O.VThe moment I woke up, I was drawn back by the weight of the shackles that had been placed on my leg. Where am I? I wondered, trying to take in my environment.This is a bedroom and not just any bedroom, a very familiar bedroom that began to send shivers down my skin as I began to connect the dots together."Yes my dear, you are smart and I love it." Alas! The one voice that I most dreaded, heightened my sensory organs to a whole new level."Keith!" I said that word with so much fear as he moved forward to stare at me with a smile on his face. "For weeks I have been scheming a way to get you my precious doll." I shook my head away from his touch. His aura screamed so much danger and the more I tried to wriggle free from those unforgiving chains, the more I felt pain."Wait a minute, why am I dressed in these clothes?" I noticed some old fashioned sort of clothes hanging to my body. The type English women wore in the regency era, while trying to be consummated to a groom. "B
