Fear crept in my skin, slowly filling my whole system, making my heart throbbed painfully inside my chest.Greval walked towards me. The first three buttons of his white button down shirt were undone, showing a little amount of his rock hard chest. His steps were full of authority, as though screaming silently with danger and death. His eyes were dead. I feel like I was staring at a broken man with a dark smoke around him. He... is too rough. His whole demeanor is rough. My chest was heaving up and down as air was suddenly not enough for me.I swallowed hard as I watched him walked over to me. I did not move as my eyes were focused on him. I feel like if I would look away, he will kill me.I felt the uncontrollable trembling of my hands when he stopped just few inches away from me. His addicting scent filled my nose, making me lost myself for a moment. And I hate it. I fucking hate how he can manage to make me feel powerless and inferior just by his scent. He is too much for me.Slow
"I had already killed him! That is fucking impossible!" I growled as I slammed my fists on to the table.Kajik flinched as he tried to stay composed infront of me together with my other three soldiers standing beside him."We found out just this morning that the person you killed was just someone he used as a bait," Kajik said in a calm voice but I did not miss the hint of fear in it.I aggressively pulled out my gun from my back pocket and shot his leg twice. He winced but he did not make any sound. His leg immediately bleed severely.I was breathing hard and heavy, glaring at him murderously. "You fucking stupid piece of shit! How come you just found out about that this morning?!" I yelled out. I could feel my face burning with pure rage. I wanted to kill them all for being so motherfucking stupid. I can't believe I am being surrounded by these stupid people!"We failed, Don. We are sorry..." One of them apologized in a quite voice. I gritted my teeth and without hesitation, I also
I was totally surprised to see Greval here. I did not expect him to come at all. I thought that he will just ask the driver to fetch me. Wait... did he go to my school? That is why he called me? I did not know that he will go home early today. Annoyance was written in his face. "Why did you even have to go here? You should have let him alone by himself!" he hissed through gritted teeth.I can't help but looked at him in disbelief. "What? No, Greval. I can't do that. He saved me. If not because of me, he would not be in this situation," I said.Drakus saved me. We saw each other a the convenience store. While waiting for the driver earlier, I got thirsty so I decided to buy some drinks. I did not expect to see Drakus at all. He was also buying some food, he said.We did not talk much. When we parted ways, I did not expect some snatcher to steal my bag. I was completely shock. For few seconds, I just stood there as I watched the snatcher ran away with my bag in his hand.I heard someon
"What time will you be home?" Greval knitted his brows. I told him that my friend, Kelly had invited me in her birthday this Sunday. But the truth was, I am planning to abort this baby inside me. I am not totally lying as Kelly's birthday is really this Sunday."I-I think around 8 in the evening, I guess. I promise. I will not stay there for too long. I do not want to break Kelly's heart." I bit my lip as I played with my fingers.He stared at me for a moment before he let out a sigh. He lazily rested his back on his swivel chair."I will two of my men to look after you," he said in a final tone, making my eyes widened in friction. What did he say?"N-No. There is no need for that, Greval." My heart started to throb painfully. I became desperate to find words on how to convince him.He raised a brow. "Why? I do not even know that friend of yours you are talking about.""S-She is my classmate, Greval. We have became close to each other. And bringing your men will just grab a lot of att
I woke up with a heavy feeling. For a moment, I tried to think what happened. And when I remember it, my heart slowly filled with unknown emotion. It feels... strangely painful."You are awake."I drifted my eyes in the direction of the voice. Kelly was sitting on the couch near the bed. She stood up, smiling as she walked towards me. I swallowed hard. I wanted to ask about the... baby but I do not even know how to start.I just... killed an innocent child. Tears pooled my eyes. Did I... do the right decision? Was it worth it? This is what I want, right? It is done. I can't do anything about it now. I killed my own flesh and blood.Am I a... murderer?"How do you feel?" Kelly asked softly.I looked away. I do not know what to say. How do I feel? Should I be... happy? Devastated? Broken? Sad?"Do you want to see... your baby?"My heart throbbed at her words. I can't help but glared at her with hatred."No. I do not want to see... that thing!" My voice was trembling and a bit of hard.K
He stared at me in complete shock. He did not move for a moment. All he did was to stand there, frozen. I watched as his eyes slowly filled with indignance and flaming hatred that I have never seen before, making me tremble under his heated gaze. I could almost feel the numbing pain even if he was just looking at me. "What did you say?" he growled in a low voice, as his chest waved violently. I glared at him murderously as I fisted my palms. I did not show any kind of fear. There is nothing for me to be afraid of."I am not carrying your child. I am not pregnant!" I hissed, gasping for air.His lips parted as his eyes frozen at mine. It was as if he did not know what to do at that moment. As though he just heard a shocking revelation he never expected to hear.Why is he acting like I did something wrong? That is what he wanted, too! I have witnessed how he told that woman to kill their child!"I killed it! I didn't want it!" I yelled in a trembling voice."Shut up! Shut the fuck up!
I swallowed the lump in my throat as my mind went back to the woman who is now at the basement. I gritted my teeth. Does she hate me that much that she even went that far? She killed an innocent child. She aborted our baby...My heart clenched painfully as those thoughts poured in my head. I know that she hates me... but I have never thought that she is capable of doing this. I feel so broken... I do not even know if I can live with this pain.I lost a child that I have never even met. I chugged down the bottle of alcohol, neverminding the sting it brought to my throat. I need to soothe this pain I am feeling. I feel like it is going to be my death.I held on the crib, gripping it tightly as tears continuously fell in my cheek.I am sorry, baby... I know that Dad was never a good person. I killed a lot of people since I was a kid. I did a lot of terrible things. I know that I probably do not deserve to be a father but when I found out that your... mommy was pregnant, I swear, I was o
I have been crying all night. I feel like all my strength left my body. I have not eaten anything since Greval took me here at the basement. My stomach was grumbling and my whole body was shaking in severe coldness. My eyes were tired from all the tears I have been shedding but I still feel like I need to cry it all out.Regret. That is exactly what I feel right now. I regret what I did. I feel so horrible. I am no different to those people who kill for pleasure. I am a monster now. I killed my own... child.A painful sob escaped my lips as I hugged my knees tightly. "I am sorry, baby..." I whispered shakily.My child must hate me now... She or he probably thinks that I am the worst mother.The metal doors opened and my heart stopped when I saw who entered the room.I swallowed as I slowly sat on the floor. I was shaking miserably as I watched his steps ate our distance.I gasped when Greval pulled my hair roughly and made me stand up on my feet."W-Where are you taking me?" I murmure
When my memories came back, I feel nothing but anger towards Petrakis. In all those years where I was living in his lies as his daughter, I did nothing but to do all the things he wanted me to do.Now that I am walking towards the basement, I could feel my heart pounding rapidly. It is not because I am scared. It is because of anger and hatred for that evil man.The image of him shooting my daughter plays in my head over and over again like a broken record. He killed my baby mercilessly... And I will never forgive him for that."You can leave now," I told Greval's men."Are you sure, Ma'am? Don told us to not leave you here alone..."I shook my head. "I can do this. I have a gun," I said with conviction.They sighed and without any choice, they left. I entered the basement with my heart filled with nothing but rage.He was on the chair, just like the last time I have seen him. Still covered by his own blood. I could feel my body shaking in wrath as I stared at the man who ruined my li
I knitted my brows as soon as I entered our home. It feels empty... I do not know why but my heart suddenly filled with fear. It started to pound rapidly, almost making me lost my breath."Nieva? Baby?" I called her as I walked towards our room. But it was empty.I swallowed hard. I just got home from work and usually, she always welcomes me at our door and will give me kiss. She did not tell me anything that she will leave. I tried to call her but her number was cannot be reached. I swallowed nervously as I called her again. Where the hell is she?My heart was almost killing me. It was beating so fast and I think I would pass out any moment from now. Just where the fuck is she? She did not tell me that she is going somewhere today!My fear and anxiety were eating whole system every passing second. And I swear to God, I feel like death is coming to me.I called Kajik and asked for his help. He said that he will order his men to look for my wife. His men... They are not mine now as I
For ten years without her, I have been living in the dark. I have been walking in a dark place. I could not even see the I way that I am walking in. I was scared while taking my each step. But I continued. I continued living even I am broken inside.It was all worth it. I never thought that the God has a plan for us. He did not let me die because she is waiting for me from somewhere. She is alive... My wife is alive...A woman who looked exactly like Nieva broke into my mansion to steal money. It was fucking crazy. I could feel every fiber of my being was shaking as I stared at her face.As the days went by, we confirmed who she was and about her situation. Because she has been experiencing severe migraine for the past days and she often lost her consciousness because of it, I asked Diego, who is a neurologist, to check on her. And there, we found a small looking chip in the right side of her brain. It was confusing. Why is there a chip in there? What is this all about?"Someone put a
"What the hell?!" She hissed as she looked at me.I blinked several times. It is not her...I feel like my world crashed for the millionth time. I swallowed hard. My whole system was filled with disappoinment, anger, pain..."I-I am sorry..." I let go of her immediately, running my fingers through my hair.But her eyes widened a bit as she stared at me. She cleared her throat and gave me a seductive smile."Well, hey. You are alone? Do you want some company?" she whispered in a sultry voice.I pursed my lips in a grim line when her hand caressed my chest. I gritted my teeth and like an instinct, my hand wrapped around her throat tightly. "Do not fucking touch me like that, bitch," I growled angrily before I pushed her on the ground. She was gasping for air as she looked at me, fear filled her eyes. I feel like I cheated on my wife even though I did not do anything after being touched by another woman. I walked out of that damn club and cursed. I looked up at the dark sky dotted wi
I gritted my teeth. They used me. They ruined my life... I could still remember when I woke up after Petrakis put the chip in my brain. I could not remember anything that day. But as the days went by, I slowly started to remember things... but those were not my memories... Those were Victoria's...My own memories were completely forgotten and they were replaced by Victoria's. Started to her own childhood, to her life in highschool until she met Greval. I could remember all of it. It was as if it was my own memories. They just felt so real and vivid in my brain as if they really happened to me..."Are you okay, baby?" Greval whispered in my ear as he stroked my hair. I shut my eyes tightly and hugged him more. We were both naked in our bed."I am just... tired," I murmured.He sighed heavily. "Are you sure?"I nodded a bit, smiling as I lifted my eyes on him. I love this man so much. I do not what I would do without him.THOSE YEARS WITHOUT NIEVA WERE HELL. I was broken. I did not even
It was painful. That is all I could feel when I woke up. I do not even know where I am... and who am I...I looked around the four corners of this white room. Where is this place? Why am I here? And most of all, who am I? What am I doing here? Why am I laying on this bed? What happened?The door opened and a man wearing a white laboratory gown entered the room. I knitted my brows as I watched him walked towards me.I could see the shock flashed in his eyes as he looked at me. His walk became slow."God, is this real?" I heard him whispered.I could not even move my fingers. I wanted to move but I feel like my body was too heavy for me to do that. Who is this man? Who am I? I wanted to vocalize those words but I just did not have the ability to. I feel so weak and I am in too much pain. My head was throbbing painfully. I feel like it is not a normal headache. It was even worse than a severe migraine. It was too painful to bear."Do you remember your name?" The man asked in a calm voice
Victoria smiled evilly at me, crossing her arms infront of her chest as she looked at me as if she won."H-How..." I swallowed hard. "How did this happen? I-I thought–""Oh! You thought I am dead?" Victoria laughed insultingly. "As I have said, it is part of the plan. We had to get your trust...""No..." I breathed heavily, swallowing hard. "But do not worry. Greval is looking for you now. He does not think you are dead. Dad is just playing you. Well, probably soon. You will be dead for real..." She smiled innocently.They left me in the laboratory while I was screaming for help but no one came to rescue me. I have to escape before they could even do their plan. I will not let Victoria replace me in Greval's life. I will not let her desperation lead to any way. I will make sure she will not succeed. I will make sure of that.I do not know how long it has been but I think it was almost midnight. I am not sure about what time it was. Suddenly, I heard footsteps. My eyes widened when I
"What?" I whispered under my breath.He smiled. "He thinks you are dead, Nieva. So you can't go back to him. You have to be with me... darling..." I shook my head, taking a step back as my heart started to beat in bizarre way. "W-What do you mean?""I sent him the body of Victoria... And he thought that it is you," he said in a nonchalant voice."You're..." I shook my head. "No... No! You did not! Tell me you did not!" I screamed angrily as I gasped for air.Suddenly, Taliyah's door opened. My eyes drifted to my daughter who looked so confused."Mommy? Why are you screaming? What is happening? Daddy?" She looked at Mr. Petrakis.I swallowed hard. I was about to grab her arm to protect her from the devil infront of us but before I could even do it, he had already grabbed her.My eyes widened as he gave me a dark smile when he lifted Taliyah in his arms."Your mommy wants to leave, my love. Do you want to leave Daddy?" he said in a soft tone, but I could hear the threat behind his word
I can't stop staring at her face... Taliyah...Tears clouded my vision as I looked at the kid infront of me... My daughter.My heart was beating strangely for this beautiful kid. I do not know what it was but it feels... so good. My heart was hammering so loud the longer I stared at her."She is your mom, Taliyah..." Mr. Petrakis said in a soft voice, kneeling infront of Taliyah.He took me in her room. I still do not want to believe him but my heart was telling me otherwise. And I can't just ignore what it says to me."Mommy? She is my mommy? Why does she look like Victoria?" Taliyah asked in a cute and adorable voice.I swallowed hard as I felt my tears ran down my cheek as I walked slowly towards her.Hey eyes... She got Greval's eyes..."Oh god," I whispered, sobbing.Mr. Petrakis made way for me. My eyes were only focused on the kid infront of me. I can't take my eyes off her. I do not want to. I want to stare at her for the rest of my life... She is my daughter... She came from
