Receiving orders from her wasn't anything unusual to them but seeing her this scared is a sight to behold."If you guys get caught, don't you dare mention my name. Okay? She threatened them for the umpteenth time on the same night.Despite her strong and bold facade she was a jittery mess as she paced the extravagantly furnished living room in her heels.The fear of being caught is crippling her but she has no regrets.A loud bang sounded on the door startling her. "wait! I will check who is there" she stopped one of her underlings that was about to open the door. "who is it?" she called out but no one answered, she got the shock of her life as her eyes landed on the person before her. She breathed out in relief but a headache started forming in place of her fear. "what are you doing here?" she asked in a hushed voice scared someone will hear them. With no intention to reply the uninvited guest stumbled into the room scarcely dressed and dirty. Hungry and drained he fell to the g

Grace's POV I could barely sleep a wink since I received that bunch of strange roses last night. My worst nightmare is back again, I never imagined this walking time bomb would ever be able to get out of the jail but I guess I was wrong. That horrible jerk is the reason why I'm living like this today. He threw my once happy family into a sea of despair and he is still not satisfied. "What!" I shrieked at Hannah as she tapped me out of my thoughts. I have been snappy and irritated today. "I'm sorry for disturbing you but the phone you ordered is ready," she replied, surprised by my attitude. Apparently I lost my phone during the accident and I had to ask for another one, I'm glad it's here because I have been wanting to talk to mom for a week now. She will be worried if she doesn't hear from me for so long. After waiting for eternity the call finally got through but I got disappointed when it wasn't her voice that sounded from the other end. "She can't speak with you right no

Grace's POV My mind was like a hurricane with loads of thoughts running in it. On one hand I'm happy that I'm finally out of the hospital and on the other hand I'm being hated by someone I barely know. I almost forgot!, the jerk with the flowers is also out there. "What are you thinking about?" I was too engrossed in my thoughts that I didn't hear Mr Hyde walked in."nothing" I replied trying to assemble my thoughts.An aroma invaded my nostrils before I could see the source. "That's hard to believe," he said gently, dropping the tray of mouth watering serving of food on the table beside me. I was stuck in that hospital for too long that I now end up drooping at the sight of food. I can't remember the last time I had a meal that I wanted not because I was made to eat it. I smiled thankfully at him and started eating with no care in the world. I almost moan at the rich taste of the steak on my tongue. It's been a freaking long time!I felt slightly embarrassed knowing that Mr

Grace's POV I like it when you smile" he said while taking my hands in his. I focus on his face and decided to indulge myself despite my anger at him. I don't know when or how but unintentionally I have come to care for this man that I bearly know. "Why are you mad at me?" he asked suddenly and I have nothing to say. I will rather die than confess my feelings to him. "I'm mad at you because you hit me with the door" I replied while glaring at him trying to hide my emotions. "oh!, I'm sorry. Let me rub it.""where did I hit" he asked and I could almost hear him chuckle. "Here" I replied pointing to where the door hit me. I barely feel the pain when the door hit me but call me dramatic. He gently rubs on the spot and kiss it. "I'm not a kid" I said feeling offended by the peck. "You do that to a kid not a grown ass woman like me" I said to his blank face. "okay" he replied while staring intently at me. He inched closer to me and our lips met.I welcome the kiss eagerly,

Unknown POV I lost track of time while I burned cigarette stick after stick.The once dark sky is now preparing for a new day.I walk slowly away from the window feeling cranky from lack of sleep and stiff from staying in position for too long. It's a new day and I'm really excited about what I planned on doing today, I really hope it goes well. The loud ringing of my phone had me stopped surprised."isn't it kinda early""what do you want?" I asked into the phone clearly not in the mood to handle the person on the other end. "oh! Really!" "How dare you ask me that after beating the hell out my assistant""Do you know what I want?!""I don't want to see you again"She bellowed in fury without giving me a break. "I don't know what you're talking about," I said, ending the call. I saw that coming but wasn't sure she was going to yell like that. Her so called assistant is just dumb and messed my plans yesterday, he deserves what ever he got. Shower took longer than I expected and
