SCARLET POV.Margo was coming at me with a knife, and the look in her eyes as they locked on mine was so manic that they had me freezing up even though I knew I should move and get out of the way. It was as if I was at that edge of the hill once again... I could see her clearly and this time as she shoved me to my death, she grinned wickedly, the mirth in her eyes glistening as she watched me plunge to my death."No" I gasped, reaching up to shield my face as the knife she held headed straight for my eyesSomeone suddenly shoved me and I crashed to the floor, my head almost smacking against the tiles but I raised my elbow to shield it instead and that took the burn off the fall. Pain radiated up my arms and I groaned, darkness creeping into my vision. I blinked hard and tried to breathe through my nose, and once the fog cleared, I became aware of what was going on around me.Margo and Pierce were both struggling with the knife she held and she was so hysteric, it was as if she wasn't

SCARLET POV.I hadn't meant to blurt it out, but I was so mad and tired of everything that I'd been yelling it out before I could take it back, and once it was out there was no way I could bring myself to call them back. Maybe this was what I should have done from the very beginning, maybe he would have given up on me if he knew that I wasn't the woman he loved so much. "What the hell are you... What do you mean you are not Scarlet" he asked after one tense minute of absolute silence."Exactly what it means" I got out on a tired breath, my head pounding In my ears. "I am sorry for everything Pierce. Maybe the real Scarlet would have loved you with her whole heart but I am not her and no matter what you do I can never bring myself to fall in love with you"Pierce got up from the bed and I moved back instinctively when he stepped toward me. He grabbed at his hair as if he was going crazy."What the hell are you talking about right now? Is this some sort of a joke? Are you trying to me

MARGO POV******I was at the edge of the cliff, staring at Eve but Instead of me holding onto her, it was in reverse, and when I looked down and saw just how daunting the way down looked, I turned to face her, my mouth opening to plead for my life, but it wasn't just Eve that was holding onto me, it was the faces of all the people I'd killed... And then I was plunging, falling fast, my scream fading in the air no matter how loud I yelled until I crashed to the floor beneath, my bone shattering into a million pieces.******I woke up with a start, my heart pounding against my ribcage as rivulets of sweat-drenched me from head to toe.I tried to sit up when something snapped against my wrist and before I could blink, I was being hoisted up from the bed."What the hell is going on" I yelled as the man who'd yanked me up started to pull me out of the room. "Where the hell are you taking me""A place for criminals like you," the man said and I stopped, my gaze whipping up to him.The man

RAPHAEL BATISTA POV"I already told you that I wasn't going to get married to Kristine so what the hell am I seeing In the news right now" I yelled and resisted to urge to smash my fist into something.Mother sighed in exasperation. "Why are you being so difficult huh? Your father warned you that he was going to take matters into his own hands if you didn't do anything about his orders, didn't he? You should have seen this coming before he even went through with it, and believe me when I tell you that I tried to talk him out of it"I groaned, gripping at my hair and tugging at it until my scalp tingled with pain. "You both fucking abandoned me and I accepted it, but now all of a sudden I am your major concern. Why the hell can't you both just learn to let me be? Is this because of Margo's case, is it because I am no longer a criminal in your eyes, is that why I am suddenly your son""Don't be ridiculous, we have always been solidly behind your back. You have always been our son. Do no

SCARLET POV "Are you still going to see Miguel before he is taken away?" Elde asked and I glanced up from the papers in front of me. "You do not need to talk to him or even tell him who you are, Scarlet...""I'll still see him regardless," I said, holding Mother's gaze. "when I do, I'll decide if I'll tell him who I really am or not"Elde moved closer. "Are you okay though? I have been watching you ever since you got back and despite getting your revenge, you haven't smiled in weeks... Are you sure you do not want to press charges against Pierce""No I do not," I said then closed my eyes to reduce the strain I felt. "The trial has just been a little hectic that's all," I told her, opening my eyes to meet her very worried ones.She nodded. "If you want the world to know that you are Eve, there's nothing stopping you my child, not even me... I don't care what name you choose to be bear or if the world finds out that you are not really my child, to me, you are my flesh and blood" she sa

SCARLET POV"You really should see Raphael. You have canceled your appointment with him for the fourth time in two weeks and even I am embarrassed with all the excuses I have to come up with" Bianca said but it sounded as if she was speaking from a faraway place.My gaze was fixed on the bouquet of flowers that Pierce had sent to my office and the box of chocolate beside it. He'd given them to me with a wide smile on his face just this morning and Instead of making me feel butterflies, it just made me feel sad and anxious because I knew he was going to be crushed in the end. But no matter what I said, he refused to back down and it was almost as if if he didn't show up in front of me for a day, I would forget all about him. What was I waiting for though... Who was I waiting for? Bianca leaned closer and snapped her finger in front of my face forcing me to acknowledge her existence and my gaze finally zeroed on hers."What?" I asked coming out of my daze and Bianca made a worried fac

RAPHAEL BATISTAScarlet Antonio Rivera was standing in the elevator and her eyes were wide open in surprise as she saw me. She was clutching at her hair and sweat dripped down her hairline as if she'd been struggling with something in the enclosed space. I stared at her, totally speechless as I took in the most beautiful pair of green eyes I'd ever seen and when I looked closer, it felt as if I'd always stared into those eyes for as long as I could remember. Scarlet lowered her gaze and dropped her hand from her hair, but I noticed the strands that were clutched in her deathlike grip and it had me wondering why she'd been tugging so hard at her hair. I stepped into the elevator with her and once the door closed, sealing the both of us in, I had to resist the urge to grab and tilt her chin so that she could look at me just as she'd done before. I couldn't believe she was here since no matter how many appointments I had with her assistant, I had never met her in person.I turned to

SCARLET POVI couldn't hear the words that Santos was saying not when Raphael was just a few feet away from me, talking to some men and smiling when they said something funny. When last had I seen a smile like that? It wasn't fair. It wasn't fair that just a touch of his hand had had my walls and resolve crumbling like ashes. It had been so hard to wrench my hand away from him when all I'd wanted to do was to lean in and press my lips against his. He'd stared at me with such fierce passion or was it my wishful thinking... Was I just projecting what I felt onto him?I flinched when I saw Kristine walk toward him, wrapped her arm around his waist, and animatedly joined in on their conversation. I couldn't help but clench the document in my hand harder while murderous thoughts ran through my head. Raphael was mine... He fucking said he was going to protect me. "Miss Scarlet" Santos called and I flinched, then forced myself to focus on him when it turned out that he'd been trying to ge

MARGO POV.Everything hurt, especially my face. It burned so hot that I wished I hadn't woken up at all.I've been drifting in and out of consciousness after the van I'd been in exploded... I didn't even understand how I'd been able to survive, but I guess it was because the force of the explosion had pushed me out of the van as it crashed to the ground.Miguel hadn't made it... I knew it because his face had been the last thing I'd seen before I was flying through the hot air.We'd been in the van and he hadn't even spoken a word to me. He'd stared at me as if I was the vilest person he'd ever met as if I had ruined his life as if I was the one to blame for everything and not Eve.Her name made me groan and all of a sudden, someone was hovering over me, and then a wet cloth touched my head.I tried to open my eyes and only managed to get my left eye slightly open while the other felt as if it was permanently shut.The eye I was seeing with was still blurry though and I had to blink t

SCARLET POVI liked the weight that was pressing me down into the warm mattress. It was hot and just the right amount of heavy. I groaned, moving closer to it. Was my pillow always this warm, or did Mother get me a new pet? I asked myself as my hand reached to clutch at whatever it was but my hand didn’t come in contact with short fur or a pillow.No, what was beneath my fingers was short but it was also super soft, silky even. And just a few inches down there wasn’t any hair, just hot skin.Raphael has hot skin. I jumped off the bed, my eyes flying open as I struggled to make sense of what the hell was going on.Raphael maintained eye contact as he slowly got up from the bed too, his gaze trained on mine as if I were some wild animal and just a look away from me would send me running off.He looked as if he'd been awake for a while so why was he just lying by my side?I couldn't remember what had happened the night before. I just remembered having a drink and Pierce forcing a kiss on
