I wanted to hold her and kiss those tears away and tell her everything but the moment I tried to touch her hand, she quickly pulled it away.This isn't going the way I planned. I never thought she was this tough. Even though she still loves me, she will rather let go and bear the pain than to follow her heart and destroy another woman's home. I know that's h

Mark had set up the same way he did when he proposed to me the first time but more. The floor was grassed with the words, 'Please forgive me'. I also noticed instrumentalists waiting a few meters away. There were garden lights heart-shaped lights in the trees. They looked like enchanted fruits. I always heard that the most beautiful place was heaven. If that's true, then this place showed heaven on earth.

Maya, please don't scream, was the sound of Marks's voice in my ears. I quickly wiggled myself out of his arms and slapped him hard on the face.Don't ever touch me again. I warned him sternly."Please you have to hear me out. I know you are hurting but I am hurt ing, even more, Maya, you have to believe me." He said regretfully.Well, it doesn't look so to me. You seem to be enjoying every bit of it. I turned to leave but he quickly grabbed my hand and pinned me to the wall. I could feel his breathing so close. I started to have those flutters in my stomach again.No way. I can't be his side chick. Leave me alone Mark. You made your decision to stay away, I yelled, trying to get out of his grip.Okay. Just listen to what I have to say. Whatever you decide to do afterward, I will respect it. What could he want to tell me? I am trying my best to move on and I just have a feeling he might say something to get me all confused again, and then raise my

I felt my heart beat racing faster as I saw the names written in gold. It was as if a dagger had been pushed through my heart and the pain was just unbearable. Even more painful than the heart break.How could you do this to me Mark? I sobbed. What did I ever do to you? I cried. The wound which I thought was beginning to heal in my heart was rather opening deeper at that instant. I took as second look at the words with my vision blurred with tears. Mark & Tilda's wedding ceremony. I didn't only feel a knife stabbing my heart but also hatred. Hatred for myself. For ever trusting him. I thought my heart was healed and I could take anything but this was different. It would have been easy if I had heard the news from elsewhere but not from him."I'm sorry Maya, I thought you saw my text messages. He said with regret. Did he take me for a kitten. I mean, he clearly proposed to a girl he claimed not to love right in front of me and now, he seems like an innocent soul but I

Maya's POVI was trying to imagine how Tom dealt with Mark and I didn't know if I should be happy or sad. I didn't remember most of what happened last night when I woke up this morning.I remembered the announcement and Mark proposing to Tilda. Heck. I went to the garden and then, I woke up in the hospital. It would have been better if he had killed me. The first man I ever loved was also the one to tear my heart in pieces.The pain was just unbearable. Tracy told me to pray but I stopped believing in prayer because I felt my prayers were never answered. Anytime I prayed for something, I got the exact opposite. For instance the time that my mother was being driven to the hospital, I prayed that God will bring her back safe with my baby brother or sister but they never returned. Same as the time my dad died. So you see, it's just been like that. But since I didn't have any other option, I decided to give it another try. It will be be

Maya was sleeping peacefully when we got to the VIP ward. She was no longer stiff or cold. Even in her sleep, she looked so beautiful, even though her skin was still pale. She had on an oxygen mask and the beeping sound from the monitor was encouraging. The nurse came to change her IV. The one they had on her was almost empty when we got here.It's unfortunate I couldn't see her deep blue eyes which always made her look like an angel. But the doctor said she might wake up any moment from now so even though I wanted so much to change into something more comfortable, I decided to stay till she wakes up.Even Jude and Tom were still here. None of us have eaten or drank anything since we got here. We were anxiously waiting for her to regain conciousness. The doctor finally told us to wait at the waiting area but when I turned around, I felt a movement on my hand. My heart was warmed to a weak smiling Maya. She couldn't keep her eyes steady but she wante

"A day to our wedding, Charlotte realized her wedding gown was shredded to pieces. She called to inform me that she was on her way to pick a new gown. I told her to wait for me to join her because it was strange for someone to do that. Besides, her house was well secured because she was from a wealthy home. Since the wedding was just the next day, we didn't have time to investigate. I smelled foul play so I didn't want her to go alone but she insisted she had to go alone since I wasn't supposed to see her gown.."

Maria signaled and Romeo, Acid, and Pluto walked in. She explains everything to them, including the life of Ken's daughter. They were silent as if in deep thought. Romeo was speechless. He couldn't believe an assassin will confess with just bit of kindness from his victim. He finally broke the awkward silence and spoke to Ken.

"Going somewhere?""Yes. I thought of going for a run". She said exuberantly."Then you should use the treadmill," Romeo said with concern.No, I don't want to feel imprisoned in a room running at the same spot. After all, there is a very beautiful view here and I'd love to see more. She said pouting.Romeo found her pouting cute. It was the first time he saw her with such airlines and besides she was right. The mountainous view was amazing. It's one of the reasons why he liked this mansion."Give me 5 minutes. I Will go with you." He said with a grin."You don't have to. I'll be fine." She said assuredly.No, it's not safe for you to go anywhere alone remember? I don't want to have another emergency call of you being in the hospital and being kidnapped somewhere. You said you will follow me everywhere so I also get to escort you everywhere. He Smirked."I have not forgotten our agreement but this is a safe area. Look at the secu

Romeo wanted nothing better than keeping Maria safe. She was adamant but could he blame her? She can't just trust another stranger with her life after what her husband did to her and besides, they met on a wrong note. But he was happy to gain her confidence. He was wondering what terms she will give. It couldn't be bad right?"So, what are those terms?" He asked with raised brows."First, I get to choose my own room, Second, I pay my own bills, and third, I get to follow you everywhere you go. She said looking away".Romeo was taken aback by those conditions. With the way, his 'fans' kept running to him at every given time? She must be kidding, he thought."Why will you have to follow me around?" He asked.Well, since you vowed to keep me safe, I figured the only way I'd be completely safe was being with you since no one will dare try to harm me when you are around right?She had a good point, but following him everywhere is not the best idea, he

Romeo could not believe what he saw in his phone as a text message. He merely left her a while ago and James had the guts to let his bodyguards attack her in no time. But what about his own contacts who he had paid to protect her? He was very angry. He knew that James will definitely do something but he didn't know it will be this soon. He called his lead contact who answered on the first ring."You were supposed to protect her. He said as soon as the voice answered on the other line. Why the hell did you allow her to get hurt? He asked furiously."We tried our best Boss, but she was too stubborn. She even thought us to be her assailants and started throwing things at us until they hurt her before we could rescue her," he said"Who are they?" Romeo asked"James bodyguards boss, we caught two of them but four escaped. We have them tied up in a secret place". He said assuredly.

Tracing the direction of the voice, James together with his bodyguards turned around to see who had dared to interfere in their affairs. They were surprised to see Romeo looking at them like a lion ready to devour it's prey. James quicky dropped his hold on Maria and she stepped back nervously.Romeo was very popular, being the sole owner of the best pubs and clubs in New York. It was obvious with the look on the faces of James bodyguards that even they, knew him. Most days when they were off duty, they spent the night in Romeo's club.They also had a lot of respect and admiration for Romeo because he was very generous and fearless. They stepped back knowing that not only was Romeo wealthy and generous, but also very tough. With the nature of his job, he had trained himself with Martial Arts and kick boxing so he could well defend himself and others.Romeo was dressed in his usual Denin Jeans with a T-shirt a
