Mia’s POV The morning came with happiness, as I had prayed the night before. Azek felt better and even more like a changed man. My marriage has seen little light shine on it. The flickering light of hope in the darkness that swallowed my heart in emotional trauma. As I walked towards the door, all the exciting events replayed in my head in a split second. Contentment and joy filled my heart. I was grateful that my little prayer I said out of despair and fear was finally becoming a reality. “I am coming” I said as I walked briskly to answer the door, the distance felt like a mile as I ran my mind through numerous things. Azek just watched me walk to the door, he seemed as if he too was thinking about all that had happened. His skin still pale, but his cheek red with what I suspected to be blush. His reddish eyes starting to clear up. I expected a serious hang over after his drinking episode yesterday, but he seemed fine. I opened the door, to my relief and happiness it was Natali
ObsessionNatalia’s POV“You could come in for a quick drink,” I said as I ushered Reed in. I walked behind him admiring his muscular physique hiding behind the blue jean jacket he wore. I already started having nasty thoughts flooding my mind just from looking at him from behind. I felt My fountain water a little. I must have him all to myself, I said in my head. I kept staring at him like I had never seen a man before. “Is Mia around? Or Azek ?” His question snapped me back to reality. His question caught me off guard. I didn't have enough time to respond on time. “hello ??” he said again, snapping his fingers. “The name’s Natalia,” I said to him, raising my tone slightly. In a bid to regain composure. “Alright Natalia, is Mia home ?” he asked again. The repeated questioning was getting on my nerves. I frowned at him not noticing a lovely young blood like me. “You know I'm not that different from Mia,” I said seductively still giving him the puppy eyes. “Hmm, is that so?

Caught between two Reed's POV It has been days since I saw Mia.I have tried calling her, but she keeps ignoring my calls. I thought I was finally getting close to her. The way she smiled at me on our last date, I felt we ignited a new connection. Let alone how I keep bumping into Natalie, who is determined to get me laid. I guess Azek has finally won this fight over Mia. My mind ran through all the events happening in my life in the past few days. What is my next move, I asked myself. Why can’t I just have Mia, she is all I want and nothing more. I proposed a game to kick Azek out of Mia’s life, and he beat me in my game with my own rules. This is bad, now their love is on a high-speed trend towards being unbreakable.This realization made me exhausted, and I felt this weight of depression all over my entire being. My soul yearned for companionship with Mia. My evening was looking dull and gloomy, so I decided to move to a nearby bar. Maybe get some drinks and clear my head.
Natalia’s POV I woke up to Reed's screams piercing my ears drums. He screamed out of horror at what had happened the previous night. As I opened my eyes, I smiled at him. He looked stunning as ever. His broad shoulders and his muscular biceps looked like they were forged for cast iron. His nipples were hard they stood like cherries on his thick chest. I felt a brief flash of the emotions I experienced the night before. His arms holding my waist and squeezing my burst with grace and his hard nipples pressing on me. The sensations I felt as his lips and tongue did wonders to my soul. The thrust movements connect us in blissful explosive satisfaction. My mind drifted into the void, where my fantasies with Reed were explored and satisfied to their fullest. Nothing could take Reed away from me as he was working My eternal grasp. His screams shortened my daydream. “Natalia! What did you do!” Reed screamed as he jumped out the bed. I looked at him with care and a smiles. “Calm down
Deep thinking Reed's POV As I sat in my apartment, my mind flooded with loads of thoughts of my conflicted feelings for Mia and her sister Natalia. I was caught stuck, and still couldn't make up my mind. Mia has always been in my heart, and she has been the one I have longed to be with for years. The memories of our high school friendship kept rising before me. Natalia, on the other hand, came to me when I needed someone the most. My lowest time she came bearing fruits of companionship and comfort. She has never left my side ever since, even after seeing my disregard for her self-love. Natalia has started creeping into my mind died to the perfect sexual connection I experienced with her. I had the map of her body engraved in my Brain. Each time I see her body, I tend to forget about Mia for a second, but once I have satisfied my lustful desires with Natalia, I fall back to dreaming about Mia. The unending loop of emotional torment and torture. My mind was breaking into a million
Natalia's POV I cried my eyes out that night. Reed had made me feel so worthless that I felt I could never be lovable. His mind gesture for us to have a good time and deepen our connection turned out to be the starting point of our relationship failure. All I ever did was show him selfless love and unconditional care. Yet, his mind still clings tightly to his unrealistic desires for music. His words said a different thing, and his mind thought differently. His actions were entirely different from the previous two. My sanity was sinking in rejection, pain, and negligence. Was this how my love life was going to be? I felt I could change him but over the last weeks, I realized that I could change years of desires with a few weeks of wants. Despite my drive and bold efforts to get him to let go of his illusion of Mia being with him, his obsession got the better of him. I hated myself for thinking I could woo him to call in love for me. I invested my entire soul and body into the rela
Chloe's POV As I stared at the ceiling engulfed in my thoughts, Amber, my mum walked into my room with an expression of disappointment and anger. She seemed like She was getting impatient. Our plan to separate Mia and Azek had failed. “It's been more than two weeks and Azek thinks his safe right” Amber said to me as she clenched her fist and grinded her teeth. She was bent on getting Azek certainly. “I would have a better job myself, you just don't know the ropes” Amber yelled at me. She was frustrated that I didn't execute the plan effectively. She couldn't do it herself as she was old and a bit off class for Azek. “Back in the day, any target I had, I always get them no matter what. I don't spare anyone." She puffed in frustration violently. She passed around the room thinking of a better plan. I struggled with the strong urge to tell her off and quit her using me as a pawn. I wanted to live a decent life, nuts as Mia was living. Get responsible, fall in love with my own foun
Reed’s POV“You better cooperate with the police” the prison Warder yelled at me as he unlocked my cell. Since my arrival at the prison, he had always treated me like I was some hardened criminal. But deep down I felt immense remorse for all I had done. I allowed my emotions to push me into signing a deal with the devil without weighing the consequences. I sat on the bunk bed, soaking in the guilt that ate my sanity slowly. All I could think of was the people I had hurt in the course, of executing the will of Chloe. The prison warder informed me that I had an interrogation session with an inspector. Before this, I had undergone multiple interrogation sessions, each one more dreadful than the last. “Hey, step out of the cell and walk down the hallway to the last room on your left” the prison warder directed me like I didn't know the drill. He finished his sentence, but I didn't make any move, I just sat there burying myself in guilt and self-hate. I just wanted to be left alone. “Mo
Chloe's POV“What is wrong with Marcus?” I asked myself these questions expecting a vivid answer, but they remained floating around in my mind. All my efforts in contacting Marcus kept heating dead ends. The psychological pressure made me flutter, draining my confidence and gradually bringing me to the brink of anxiety and fear. Failure wasn't an option at this point, additionally I had come too far to give up now. My conversation with my mom led me to see the eruption of the concealed desperation she has been holding in. Over the course of days, my mom has been calling to pester me. Always questioning my next move, the more I listened to her, the depressed I became. Her alliance with Mr. and Mrs. Mendez made it difficult to think as they were constantly on my neck. Constantly reminding me of my failed past efforts. After some time of thinking about my messed up life, I got a call from the contact I requested to contact Marcus. My phone rang loudly, breaking the silence I sat in.
Mia's POV “Lewis! Liam! Can you both come downstairs and have your breakfast ?” I yelled from the sitting room to the boys who were upstairs playing in their rooms. It was a bright morning, and the light from the sun cast a Golden hue on the house. The tension I and the boys felt on our arrival, had faded into a more comfortable feeling. It was indeed a safe house. As I prepared breakfast, my thoughts drifted into the trauma I experienced at the hospital. Flashbacks of Azek surrounded by nurses and doctors trying to save his life, replayed in my mind. These thoughts drained me emotionally. I had done so many things trying to get my mind off my anxiety, but all my efforts to achieve peace of mind proved fruitless. I guess being the soul Bond between family at critical times was exhausting. Despite the settled feeling of comfort and safety, my mind was still roaming, my heart pounding with anxiety about Azek’s condition. I wasn't sure if he had been moved or if he was still at
Azek's POV “Daniel ?” I asked more to myself than him. I tried to sit upright but the intense pain that surged through my body made it difficult to move. My memory will still foggy, the headache intensified, and my stomach twisted with worry. The young man, who had introduced himself as Daniel was a familiar face. But my current mental State didn't allow me to think. According to his introduction, he knew me and my family, so I decided to ask him about Mia. “Where is Mia ?” I asked him, my voice slightly elevated and strained, “you have to tell me where she is”.Daniel gave a loud sigh before answering me and his face laced with worry and concern. “Stop bothering your mind” he said, “you have to be calm” “Why were they hiding Mia's location from me” I asked myself. Everybody kept telling me to be calm. I was gradually getting to the limit of my patience, as all my efforts to get to Mia proved fruitless. Daniel noticed my anger. He glanced at me with hesitation and concern, she
Azek’s POV“What happened to me” was the question I had been asking myself for several days. I tried shaking off the foggy feeling I felt in my head as I woke up. I blinked countless times, but the haze didn’t clear up. My memory was cloudy, making it difficult to remember anything. The more I tried to think, the more intense this throbbing pain I felt at the back of my head. “Where am I” I finally forced some words out of my mouth after what felt like days of being mute. I have never felt such disorientation in my life. I was blind mentally. I opened my eyes and scanned the room. It was dimply lit, and I could barely hear any sound, except the sound of the heart rate monitor attached to me. “Was I in the hospital?” I blinked countless more times, forcing my articulation to come alive. I knew I was still alive, but a part of my brain felt dead. After a couple of minutes of laying still on the bed, my memories started coming in blurred fragments. Faces and actions of different peop
Mia's POV “Mummy, where are we going?” Lewis asked as we began our drive in the car. I sat there, sandwiched between Liam and Lewis. They both stared at me with confused faces. I couldn't bring myself to explain what was happening. I didn't understand fully. All I knew was Chloe intended to take my life. The more I gave the situation some thought, the more I felt a void form in my guts. Daniel had hurriedly whisked us away from the hospital, leaving Azek without any word of explanation and this was unfortunate for him. What if he started looking for us? His condition might worsen due to our absence. “We are going to someplace safe for now, it's not for long. We will see Daddy soon" I explained what was left of my shattered mind to Lewis. The drive was awkwardly quiet, the only dominant sound was the soft humming of the car engine. Liam on the other side of the car was quietly scanning the road Intensely. He behaved like he could sense that something was wrong. I could see him glan
Mia's POV Daniel’s sudden appearance made the room grow in tension. His shaky hands, widened eyes, and standing hair all have off the unnerving heaviness that filled the room. “You all have to leave now !, like immediately move” Daniel exclaimed, breaking the awakened silence that accompanied his entrance. He puffed like he sprinted all the way here. “What do you mean?” I asked Daniel, my voice filled with dread and fear. I'm a split second, my mind raced through the worst scenarios. Daniel's urgency was about Chloe, but he was too unsettled to explain. “Calm down, breathe, and explain to us what you mean,” Natalia said, she was confused by his unusual behavior and words. Daniel took a deep breath, trying to calm himself. He closed his eyes and took some time to breathe. He shortly opened his eyes and spoke, this time a bit calmer. “I went to talk with someone who knew Chloe very well – Marcus, he said Chloe is planning something huge and would strike anytime soon. She might com
Mia’s POV “Hey boys, you both need to stop playing around. There are a lot of things you would rather not break in here” I said to Liam and Lewis. They both were playing happily in the wardroom where Azek lay on his sick bed. The tension in the hospital had reduced after the news of the brain scans and Azek’s response to treatment and overall improvement in his health. They seemed a bit happier after they spent some days with Natalia back at the mansion. I watched them play and smile despite the traumatic situation we found ourselves. I glanced at Azek; he, too, was enjoying the sight of the boys playing; I could see him wish he could stand up and join them to play. His eyes were fixed on the boys, and gradually a wide and bright smile grew on his face. It’s been a few days and I still haven’t gotten any word from Daniel. He told me about his plan to look for someone who had valid information about Chloe’s whereabouts. Well, maybe he hasn’t found someone yet. I said to myself, tryi
Daniel's POV I exclaimed out of excitement in my mind, but I held my composure. I couldn't afford to celebrate too Early. We still had bigger fish to fry. “ I need everything! Where is she hiding, who is her possible alias, and what's her next move? I need it all Marcus !" I exclaimed! He leaned forward resting his cuffs on the metal table. I immediately brought out a small jotter and a pen ready to take notes. “ She's been lying low in an abandoned penthouse in the East of town. And as for her next move she's currently spying on Mia and her family at the hospital. She might have sent someone to poison Mia already. She has been talking about me for weeks, and if that doesn't work, she plans to go to the hospital herself,” he revealed. As he spoke, I wrote down every detail I deemed useful. My stomach twisted, and my ears hurt from listening to him. “So how do we get to her, storm the penthouse? Or do we wait for her to show face at the hospital? And how soon do you think she wou
