He exhaled a deep sigh, fanning my ear with his warm minty breath. I pursed my lips in a grim line as I tried to peel off his strong arm around me. But he never let me."I am going!" I hissed in a low voice."I am done with you yet," he growled in a weak yet threatening tone."You are still horny, yeah? You have a woman waiting for you outside. You can fuck her! I am sure she is willing! 'Cause I am not!" I do not know where did I get the courage to say those words. But I did not regret it. Surprisingly, it made me relieved somehow. It was as if I was able to burst out my true feelings."I am still mad at you," he whispered which made me shocked. It was not what I am expecting him to say. I was anticipating him to yell at me."You are always mad at me." I can't help but respond in a bit of sarcastic way. I think he did not notice my tone or he just ignored it. "But I miss you..." he murmured, kissing my neck softly.My lips parted at his words. No. He did not just say that."Stop say
How dare he say he likes me? Does he think that I am some kind of a stupid kid who would believe whatever he say? How could he even say that? Has he forgotten how he made my life miserable? Does he think that all of those things he has done to me were just nothing? He ruined my life. He ruined everything I have. I am completely broken inside. And now, he has the guts to say that he likes me? He is sick. He is fucking sick in the head if he thinks that I would fall for that kind of stupid crap coming from his dirty lips.A man like him does not deserve any woman. He deserves to die alone. He deserves to be miserable. He is a criminal, a devil...I sighed as I tried to sleep. I have been skipping my classes for the past weeks. Greval had completely forbids me to study. He even took the phone he gave me.I gasped when the door suddenly opened. I immediately sat on the bed when I recognized who entered my room without permission.His huge frame was screaming with cruelty.I clutched the c
"Drakus? What are you doing here?" I was a bit surprised to see him in the faculty room the next morning.He smiled as he stood up from his seat."Hey, good morning, too," he said, chuckling.I blinked. "G-Good morning. I am sorry. I just did not expect to see you here. Do not tell me you are a new professor here?" "Uh-huh." He nodded, grinning. I can't helped but look at his attire. He was wearing a white button down polo shirt and a gray pants."Oh! Wow. Congrats!" I smiled at him."Thanks, I guess?"We did not talk for too long as I had to go back to our classroom. But in lunch time, we saw each other again in the cafeteria. Kelly was absent today so I was alone in the table."Can I join you?" A voice suddenly interrupted me from eating."Drakus!" My cheek flushed when he laughed a bit. "Uhm, y-yes. Of course." Though, I am not sure if it is appropriate for him us to be seen eating together. He is a professor and I am a student here. But I did not have the heart to say no to him.
"You are asking me what I want?" I whispered bitterly.The darkness of the room added cruelty in his presence. Even though I could not see his face, I could feel his intense gaze, piercing into my soul."I want you to let go of me," I hissed in a quite tone."No fucking way," he immediately growled.I shook my head as tears invaded my eyes. I pushed him and for some reason, he pulled away."Then do not tell me you will give anything I want if you can't even give my freedom!" I said in a bitter voice."Nieva," he breathed, almost weak. He cupped my face, caressing my cheek. "I can give you anything but not... that! I can fucking you the world if you would ask me. I can fucking give you my life! But please..." His voice trembled miserably. "Do not ask me to let you go...""I thought you said you like me?" I whispered, pretending to sound hurt."I do. I fucking do. I like you so damn much. Motherfucking much." He breathed heavily, almost gasping for air."If you really like me, then let
"Good morning, Nieva."I do not even know how to react when Drakus suddenly showed up from somewhere while I was walking down the corridor, heading to my classroom that morning.He was smiling widely at me.I blinked several times, thinking what to say. Greval's face contorted with annoyance suddenly flashed inside my head, as though warning me. Our conversation last night came crashing back to me. I do not know how he knew about Drakus. But why am I even surprised, right? He can find out anything he wants.He even assumed that I liked Drakus. For god's sake..."Good morning, Mr. Lemor," I greeted back as I offered him a small smile. I was walking slowly and he followed me. I was silently praying that he would leave me alone."You are a bit early today. That is a surprise." He chuckled a bit."Uhm, yeah. I woke up early so..." I shrugged my shoulders."Well, that is a good thing. Anyway, I got to go, Nieva. See you when I see you." He waved a bit before he walked away to the opposite
Greval was true to his words. To be honest, I was expecting him to chance his mind regarding that matter. But the next day, my things were already packed and I am not ready to go in a house which he himself bought.But I did not expect this house to be so freaking huge. No, cut that. It was not a house. It is a fucking mansion in an exclusive subdivision.I gritted my teeth as I looked at the extravagant exterior of it.Is he kidding me?Why did he buy this mansion? I am pretty sure he is aware that I am all alone. I do not need this huge mansion all by myself.I saw the driver who was about to enter the mansion, carrying me things but I stopped him. He looked at me in confusion."I-Is this really where I am going to live?" I asked in pure shock.He nodded immediately. "Yes," he replied shortly and coldly.I sighed as I tried to think what to say. "No. I am not going to live here. I do not need this huge mansion. Tell Greval that I would just find another place to stay at."He looked
"What do you mean? You are living in an apartment now?" Kelly sounded confused. I told her that I moved out from... Greval. She looked like she could not believe what I have just said.I nodded my head. "Yes..." I whispered.She spaced out for a moment. "But why? Is there any problem?" Now, she looked serious... too serious.I did not know what to tell her so I just shrugged my shoulders."How come Greval let you moved out?" There is something in her tone that I could not decipher."It is... a long story," I opted to say instead. I think it is better to not tell her anything about it."Where do you live now?""Just few minutes away from here."Her brows knitted. "Just near our school?" She sounded surprised."Yes.""Can I visit you there?""Of course." I smiled at her.After our classes, Kelly said that she wanted to see my apartment so I took her there. We just walked all the way from here as it is just very near.She looked around the apartment as we got inside. I do not even have a
"I am really happy that you said yes, Nieva." Drakus gave me a gentle smile.We were waiting for our order. I honestly thought that we were just going to have some coffee but I did not expect that he had other plans. He took me in an expensive restaurant. He waited for me outside the school as what I have told him. I do not want other people to see us because I am sure that it will not be a good impression. I just want to avoid any unfortunate circumstances like negative humors or anything like that.I just smiled at Drakus. He is a good man so why not?"I hope you are not uncomfortable with me?" He gave me a hopeful gaze.I chuckled a bit a I shook my head slightly. "No. Not at all," I replied in a soft tone.I saw how relieved he was when I gave him that answer.He was asking about some stuff like my favorite hobbies and all of that. It was just a simple conversation, nothing heavy at all. I am glad that he did not dare to ask anything about personal matter like my family. I am grat
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
