Lucas raced all the way to the hospital. Pearl was now unconscious. He kept looking back at her. Anastasia hugged her, she was weeping.

They reached the hospital and he wasted no time, he immediately picked her up in his arms and rushed into the hospital.

Anastasia's step paused when she got a look at the building before her.

“ Grace hospital ”

She whispered to herself. It was his own hospital. Top in the country. Of course he trusted no one but his own people to treat her. She saw him screaming at the doctor and grabbing him by the collar.

“ I want her back in her usual self! ”

She heard him shout at the doctor as she approached them. The doctor was already trembling.

“ Yes, yes you master of course ”

The doctors and the nurses were sweating. They pushed the sketcher to the operating room. They waited outside the room. Lucas was pacing back and forth.

Anastasia had seen him panicking only once. When his mother died, today was the second time. Lucas lit up a cigarette.

    “ Mom.. Mom..wake up.. Mom please don't leave me ”Lucas turned in his sleep. He murmured in his sleep. “ Mom.. Mom.. ”His forehead was covered in sweat. He was trembling. “ Mom.. Mom please ”He kept on mumbling. His face was wet with tears. His tears. Suddenly he felt a hand pulling him closer. He inched closer. The same hand caressed his hair. He calmed down. Pearl rubbed his back, she caressed his face. “ It's okay ”She whispered to him softly. She felt him calming down in her arms. She kissed the top of his head and continued holding him and caressing him. He eventually calmed down and went back to sleep. Earlier Pearl had found him sleeping on the chair beside her bed, she felt bad seeing how uncomfortable he looked and felt so she told him to sleep next to her on the bed. “ What have you been through Luc ” She whispered. “ Mom, I.. I.. ”Rosie was standing before her mom. She looked terrified. Her eyes kept on darting up and down and her lower lip trembled. “ What is

    Lucas drove her back to her hostel. He parked the car outside the gate and carried her in his arms. “ Lucas, stop ”Pearl blushed. She struggled but he didn't let her go. He carried her towards her room. “ I can walk ”“ Unlock it ”Pearl unlocked her door, still in his arms. They entered her room and Lucas finally dropped her down on her bed. “ Take rest today, no classes for today ”He ordered her. “ Of course not.. ”Lucas narrowed his eyes on her and she immediately stopped. He kneeled before her and took her hand in his. He raised them to his lips and kissed her hands. “ I have already talked to the Dean. You don't have to worry. ”He did, what? Pearl was shocked. She opened her eyes wide. “ Wha.. ”“ Shhh.. ”He raised his finger at her lips. He touched her lips and Pearl blushed harder. “ Now rest. Okay? ”She nodded her head. She was feeling quite weak today. She definitely needed a day off. She saw him standing up and she immediately held onto his sleeves. Lucas look

    The black Bugatti stopped before the elite garden's hostel. Lucas stepped out and shut the door behind him. The door closed with a thud. He leaned back against his car and lit up a cigarette. He raised it to his lips and took a drag. A small group of girls were gathered nearby, sneaking glances in his direction. It was clear they found him incredibly attractive, their eyes following his every move with a mixture of curiosity and admiration. Lucass seemed unaware of their attention, lost in his own thoughts as he took a drag on his cigarette and exhaled a large plume of smoke. His cool and aloof demeanour only added to his appeal, and the girls found themselves unable to tear their eyes away. When he was done he dropped it down and stepped on it. He ran a hand through his hair and made his way inside. On his way he popped some mint chocolate in his mouth to hide the fact that he had been smoking earlier. He knocked on her door and it opened after a minute. Pearl closed the door be

    Pearl stepped out of the bed, she found a robe and wrapped herself into it. She tiptoed towards the bathroom, Lucas was still asleep. She didn't want to wake him up so she made as minimal sound as she could. She stepped into the shower, the warm water caressing her skin gently. She took some shower gel and scrubbed her body, her movements were gentle and soft. She was still a bit sore from earlier. She washed her hair, after she was done she stepped out of the bathroom, wrapped in a towel. Her eyes turned wide when she found him sitting on the bed. He had a cigarette popped in his mouth. Pearl stepped forward and pulled the cigarette out. She threw it out of the window. “ You smoke? ”She raised an eyebrow at him. Lucas nodded slowly. “ Sometimes ”He answered. “ Stop that habit of yours ”She opened her wardrobe and pulled out a dress. “ Don't you wanna shower? ”She turned back to face him. He was staring at her. “ I want one ”Lucas jumped out of the bed, his muscular body c

    Selina sneaked out of her room late that night. She held her heels in her hands and tiptoed towards the door. She was making her way towards the door when she heard a noise behind her. Her breathing hitched and she froze in her spot. She turned her face to look behind her. “ Mily! ”She heaved a sigh of relief. It was her cat. She knelt before her and rubbed her head. Mily leaned in her touch. She pressed her head in her hands. “ I'll be back soon, be good ”She whispered. The cat looked at her with her big eyes, obviously not understanding her words. Selina stood up and pulled out a spare key from her purse. She quickly unlocked the door and stepped out. She quietly stepped out of her house, shivering slightly as the cool night air hit her skin. She took a deep breath, filling her lungs with the crisp, refreshing air, and exhaled slowly, feeling a sense of freedom and excitement at being out in the middle of the night. The darkness of the night cast long shadows around her, but sh

    Rosie sat up, she was panting. Her back was covered in sweat. Her nighty clenched tightly to her body, it was wet from perspiration. She whipped her forehead with the back of her hand. “ It was a dream, a dream ”She kept on reminding herself again and again. She leaned in to grab a glass of water which was placed on the table beside her bed. She took a big gulp. Rosie raised her hand to touch her neck. She ran a finger across the scar. She got out of the quilt, her feet touched the smooth carpet below them. She stood up and walked towards the window. She pulled the curtains a little bit to the side and looked down. She saw Adam. He was leaning against a wall, a cigarette between his lips, his head was lowered, he was looking down at his phone. Rosie let the curtain fall back to its place. She took a step back, another and another until the back of her knees hit the bed. She sat down. She pulled her phone out from the drawer and raised it to her ears. The call connected immedi

    Selina smiled at her. The smile actually reached her eyes. “ How are you? ”Pearl was surprised, she never expected her to talk to her. She hated her right? Well that's what she believed. “ I.. Mm.. I am fine ” She smiled back. Selina started walking beside her, making small talks every now and then. “ So, how's Lucas? ”“ Umm.. He is good ”Pearl felt uneasy talking to her. She didn't understand why she would talk to her and suddenly she was reminded of the text from last night. Could it be her? She turned her eyes towards her, she was talking about something. Pearl couldn't decide if she was overthinking Or she was actually right. “ Sister ”Pearl paused and so did Selina beside her. The voice was soft and soothing and Pearl knew who it belonged to. Rosie stood before them, smiling down at them. “ Sister, good morning ”She spoke again, her eyes fixed at Selina. Pearl was shocked. Sister? She looked between Selina and Rosie. They both looked so different. “ Morning ”Selin

    “ What about this? ”Daniel ran his hand around the suit he was wearing. He looked at his reflection before turning towards Anastasia. “ What do you say? ”He asked Again. Anastasia was silent. She looked at him as if he had gone insane. “ Are you out of your mind? ”Daniel pursed his lips. He ignored her and turned to the salesgirl beside him. “ I will take this ”The salesgirl smiled before disappearing with the suit. Daniel walked towards Anastasia and pulled her up on her feet. “ Come on, let's go ”They walked to his car in silence. Anastasia pressed her lips together. “ Why are you doing this Dan? ”She spoke once they had settled in his car. She couldn't take it anymore, she needed an answer. Daniel sighed. He placed the paper bag on the backseat and started the car. “ I don't understand why you are doing this ? ”“ You don't understand what? ”He finally spoke. “ What is it that you are not understanding? ”“ Why are you trying to marry her? ”“ Trying?

    I was abruptly awakened by the jolting movements of Lucas as he became ensnared in the grasp of a nightmarish dream. I lifted my head, my eyes adjusting to the dim light of the room as I took in the sight of his tensed body and the sound of his soft moans. I felt a sharp pang of concern, and my hand instinctively reached out to touch his arm, trying to gently wake him up. As my fingers brushed against his skin, I could feel the cool sweat that had gathered on his brow and the fast beating of his heart. “ Lucas ” I called out gently, I could hear his faint gasp and soft murmurs. I leaned in closer to him, trying to hear him more clearly. “ Rosie.. ” “ Rosie.. I love you, I love you! ” My hand paused on his arm, my entire body freezing in shock. I sat back in stunned silence, my eyes wide and my heart clenching in my chest. The name "Rosie" echoed in my head, a stark reminder of the fact that he was still carrying a torch for her, even in his dreams. I felt a wave of hurt and betr

    “ Do you love me Lucas? ” “ Yes! Yes I do ” “ Not enough to recognise me? ” “ No, I will always recognise you ” She smiled. A sad smile. “ You don't ” “ Rosie.. ”“ You don't.. You love her not me.. ”“ Rosie.. I love you.. I love you! ” I opened my eyes. My body jerks awake, a trembling breath escaping my lips. I sat up in bed, my body covered in sweat and my heart pounding in my chest. As I came to my senses, I realizes it was just a nightmare - a cruel reminder of the past. In the dream, I had been transported back to my childhood, and the image of her, who had died all those years ago, was as vivid and real as if it had been yesterday. I could still see her face, hear her voice, feel the touch of her skin on mine. I turn to look at Pearl, she is sleeping soundly beside me. The sight of her calmed me a bit. I reached out, gently brushing a stray strand of hair away from her face, my touch feather-light so as not to wake her. I carefully untangled myself from the blanket a

    I couldn't sleep for the whole night, I kept tossing and turning throughout the night. I was so worried about the cub, I kept thinking if he was fine, where his parents were. Soon enough I felt an arm wrapping around my waist and I was pulled closer. My back pressed against a strong, warm chest. “ What's wrong? ” I heard Lucas's deep voice behind me. I realised I had woken him up. “ I am sorry, did I wake you up? ” “ No, I can't sleep either ” I turned to face him. “ Why? ” He shrugged his shoulders, reaching out to touch my hair. He wrapped a strand around his finger and twisted it around. “ Because you can't sleep ” I smiled and then my smile disappeared. He noticed it and lifted my chin to look at him. “ What's wrong? ”He asked again. I sighed. “ You couldn't find his mother? ” He shook his head. My eyes dropped further in disappointment. “..but Matthew just reported something to me ”My eyes lit up. “ You found her? ” “ No, but there's evidence that she is dead ”

    I gently lifted the cub into my arms, my touch tender and gentle. The young panther snuggled into my embrace, its body quivering slightly as it sought comfort and warmth. It lifted its head, rubbing its soft fur against my face and neck, seeking reassurance and affection. My heart melted at the sight. I held the cub close to me, stroking its head and back gently with my free hand. I could feel its small body trembling against me, its heart beating fast and its breaths coming in short little gasps. It looked up at me with large, round eyes, seeking comfort and safety in my embrace. I stood up and walked towards Lucas and Matthew. Lucas turned his face to look at me, his eyes softened when he looked at the cub. “ We can't leave him here, please can we keep it? ” He reached out to touch my head, smiling gently at me. “ Of course, whatever you want ” I looked up at him, my face glowing with happiness and excitement. I held the cub close to me, its small body a warm, comforting weigh

    He trailed his lips over my neck, nipping gently at my sensitive skin. I gasped, my neck arching involuntarily in response to the sensations. He planted soft, slow kisses from my earlobe down to my collarbone, his mouth hot against me. His hand moved underneath my shirt, tracing lazy circular patterns on my stomach and side. I shivered. And suddenly he paused. His body went stiff all of a sudden. “ What's.. What's the matter? ” I spoke, my voice low and hoarse. “ Shh.. Listen carefully ” I tried to concentrate and my blood ran cold. I could hear the sounds of movement outside the tent, the rustling of leaves and the soft crunch of twigs. It was a rustling noise, as if something was moving around in the bushes nearby. He pulled away from me, his eyes darting towards the tent's entrance. “ Lucas.. ” His hand tightened on my arm, unconsciously drawing me closer to him in a protective gesture. “ I am here ” He whispered, his body tense and alert. He listened closely, trying to m

    By the time we were done eating the sky above us was slowly turning dark. I could see the beautiful sunset stretching before us. The sun was slowly setting behind the mountains. “ Wow, the sunset ” I whispered. I turned to him, my eyes wide with excitement. "Can we go up to that cliff over there?" I ask, pointing to a tall rocky outcrop that overlooks the forest. "I bet the sunset looks amazing from up there." He nods, a smile on his face. "Anything for you," He says, his tone affectionate. He takes my hand and leads me towards the rocky trail that leads up the cliff. It was not that tall but it was enough for us to see the sunset clearly. We climb up the rocky trail, my hand firmly held in his strong grip as we make our way up the incline. The air was cool and fresh, the forest spreading out beneath us in a carpet of green and gold. The sun is low on the horizon, painting the sky in shades of pink and orange as it begins to dip below the treeline. I gasped as I noticed the

    “ Yeah, hold it tight. ” “ Is this tight enough? ” Lucas nodded, we were setting our tent as we were going to spend the night here. I was so excited. I held the rod tightly with both of my hands as he tied the knot. We worked together to set up the tent, Lucas's movements were efficient and practised. He focused on getting the tent framework up, while I gathered up the tent stakes and pounding them into the ground. Occasionally, I saw him looking over at me. I could feel his gaze on me, but I kept my focus on the task at hand. While Lucas did most of the work from unrolling it and setting up the supports. I helped him here and there. We worked silently, our movements rhythmic and efficient. Once the tent was up, we stood back to admire our handiwork. “ Wow ” I breathed out. The tent looked incredible. I looked up at the finished tent, my eyes brimming with awe. The canvas was taut and taut, the supports sturdy and secure, creating a strong and cosy shelter for us to sleep in to

    We sat there for another hour before returning to the castle. It was good to finally meet his mom. As we were driving back from the cemetery my heart was feeling heavy. I turned to look at the boy beside me. He had no one but me with him. I reached out and placed my hand on top of his. He turned his eyes at me. I gave him a sweet smile. “ I love you ” “ I love you too ” He raised my hand to his lips. “ Thank you for letting me meet your mother ” He squeezed my hands gently. “ Thank you for meeting her ” We smiled at each other. We reached the castle and I got out first. The castle was a sight to behold at night, the soft moonlight casting a silvery glow over its towering spires and intricate stonework. The ocean that surrounded it shimmered in the darkness, its surface rippling like black silk under the light of the stars. The effect was breathtaking, the castle standing like a sentinel over the water, majestic and imposing in its beauty. I stared up at the castle, my neck cr

    I froze. What was I supposed to do Or say? I looked over to Lucas for help but he was already trying his best to hold his laugh. Sigh. I have to think of an excuse. “ Mom, I am at a friends house ” My mother looked at me, her eyes narrowed. She didn't look convinced one percent. She didn't push me further, we talked about my school and all that stuff. Once the call ended I took a deep breath of relief. I walked towards the couch and sat beside him. “ Your mom sounds strict ”I nodded. Yes, they could be very strict sometimes. “ Yeah, my parents want me to focus on my studies and make them proud. ” “ Hm, talking about that you have never told me anything about your parents ” I realised that he was speaking the truth. We have been dating for quite some time now and I have never ever discussed my parents. “ Yeah, you never asked ”I shrugged my shoulders. “ So, tell me now ” “ Okay, what do you want to know? ” Lucas inched closer to me and draped his hands around my shoulder
