CORA’S POV

I ran as fast as my legs could take me. The tunnel was cold and dark but I didn't stop running. My legs kept on hitting the stones and shards of glass on the floor but I didn't stop. I kept on running, panting heavily looking behind me to make sure no one was following. The figure emerged from the shadow again and kept on pursuing me. “Help me! I screamed but no response came. My voice echoed back to me in the dark tunnel. “Someone is trying to kill me, help me please! I kept on screaming regardless of how my throat ached. It didn't matter. I needed to run as fast as I could and look for a way out or else I'd be killed. “Do you think you can run away from me forever Cora, " the figure shouted back and laughed wickedly. Just wait till I get my hands on you, you wretch. He said and increased his pace. “Don't come near me, I don't know anything” I said and waved my hands into thin air trying to shut him away. My body couldn't stop shaking and I let out cold sweat. He was close to me a

How it all started

“Why did you tell her, Harvey? We agreed to keep it a secret, my father cautioned my mother before she spilled any more news about how much danger we were in.“But she deserves to know Reagan! We can't keep on lying to her. I told you not to agree to Elliot’s terms but you did. Now our daughter has to bear the consequences of your actions.“Papa, I stormed and they both looked at me. What is Mum talking about? “Cora, it's not as your mum says. The company is going well, it's just some inner issues. “Papa, I cut him off before he told me any more lies. I'd advise you to think twice before lying to me. He felt ashamed and placed his head down. Then he began to explain how bad the company has been doing for the past three months that I've been away. The company's core technology got hacked and stolen and we've been running on a deficit. The only way to save the company was a merger with Keith’s company but his father, Elliot demands a wedding between the families before the merger can t

FRIEND OR FOE

Keith's eyes probed mine, seriousness replacing the playful moments we had before. "I've got a confession. I'm not here solely for the art."I frowned, bewildered. "What do you mean?"He took a deep breath. "I've been working undercover for some time trying to look into the hacking incident at your father's company."My mouth sprang open in shock. "You've been doing what?""Yes, and I have discovered something significant. The technology was not just taken; it was sabotaged from within. And I believe my father planned it to push the merger.Even with the suit jacket slung over my shoulders, I felt a chill. "Why are you telling me this? "Isn't Elliot your father?""I need your help. The wedding needs to take place, "he said.I scoffed out a little laugh and looked back at him. His face was stern and he had a serious expression on his face. “Wait, wasn't that a joke Keith? I came to the exhibition trying to convince you out of it but it looks like you were all in it together. “Look he

A marriage of convenience

The gloved hand pressed firmly, but not harshly, against my mouth. "Shh," the voice hissed, a voice I almost didn't recognize. It was low and urgent. "I'm not here to hurt you."“Keith?? I thought and shrugged the thought off”. It couldn't be him, Not at all. The grip loosened slightly, allowing me to breathe. He removed his mask and it was him, Keith. "What the heck are you doing here?" I managed to mumble against the palm."I need your help," he whispered, removing the hand from my mouth but keeping one finger pressed to his lips, signaling for silence. He was dressed in all black, blending with the shadows of the room. "Your father and the merger with my company, it's not what it seems."My heart raced. "What do you mean?" I asked, my voice barely above a whisper."There's no time to explain. You must decide now. Your life is in danger," he said, glancing towards the window where a faint red dot, like a laser pointer, danced."Are you saying someone's trying to kill me?" I gasped.

Who really is Keith

Elliot's laughter faded as he turned, his eyes locking with mine, and the room became tense. "Cora, in our world, survival is an art, and sometimes we must paint with dark colors," he said, his voice a low murmur only I could hear. "But no, I did not send anyone to harm you. Why would I sabotage my plans?"His words hit me and I was breathing rapidly. I wanted to believe him, but he only left me with doubt. "Then who did?" I pressed my voice barely above a whisper.Elliot stepped closer, the scent of his cologne mingling with the floral arrangements that adorned the room. "That, my dear, is the question we should both be seeking the answer to," he replied, his gaze never leaving mine. "For now, let's focus on today, it's such a happy day. We shouldn't ruin it with something like this, he said and laughed.“Sweetheart, what are you still doing waiting here? Your father is waiting for you. My mum interrupted and I was happy she did. The event kicked off and I walked alongside my father
