Samantha's POV:
DYLAN is caging me inside a huge house. I don't know who owns this house, but it seems abandoned. I'm scared. I don't know what are his plans, but I'm certain he's caging me here until he's satisfied or perhaps… forever.Disagreeing to my thoughts, I shook my head. That's when I remembered how loud the explosion was. How that huge fire ate the mansion that my grandparents built. How my heart was shattered thinking that Jacob was burned inside the house. It kills me. I wanted to hope, to believe that he manage to escape before the explosion, but that is very impossible when he's sleeping in his room. No! He's alive! I have to think positively. He will come to save me. That's for sure.I hugged myself while sitting at the edge of the bed. Dylan has been keeping me in this room for two consecutive days. This room is literally a cell. The windows have grills and the door is locked from outside. I couldn't escape, oh, I couldn't even think a wayJacob LeeI WAS facing back and forth when I heard my phone rang. I quickly answered the call after reading the name registered on the screen. I clenched my jaw as I heaved a sigh, trying to calm myself.[Hello, sir. I found his location. He was caging Miss Samantha in an abandoned mansion. I will send you the address right away.]I nodded. “Okay, thank you.”[Sir…] He called me again when I was about to drop the call. “What is it?”[I found someone who was about to attack Mr. Dylan Davidson. He said he is Lucian, and he needs to save Miss Samantha.]I started massaging my temple. Damn! What was he thinking? He will attack without any plans? “Are you still with him? Let me talk to him.”[Yes, sir.]I heard him talking to someone on the other line and few minutes later, I am already talking to Lucian, Samantha's ex-boyfriend.[What?]I clenched my jaws. “You're putting her in danger.”[
Jacob LeeI clenched my jaw as Dylan grinned. He attacked me again, and I did everything to distract him by trying to make the fight long. I lifted my chin and stared at his bloodshot eyes as if he was under the influence of a drug. Of course, he's using drugs. Who in his right mind would do such thing to his own wife.I wet my lips and balled my fists. I position myself to defense and tilted my head. “Is that all you got, douchebag?”My lips twitched when I saw anger in his eyes. He threw the metal pipe and took something from behind him. I lifted my chin when he pointed a gun at me.“JACOB!” It was Samantha's voice, but i didn't budge. I ignored her as I glued my gaze to Dylan.He chuckled evilly. “I will blow your head off, you bastard. How could you f-ck my wife? What's special about you? You're just a mere bodyguard.”I clenched my jaw. “This mere bodyguard found the beauty in your wife's broken soul, you asshole. How could
SamanthaJACOB and I fell asleep after eating. We slept together on the hospital bed, and it's already night when I woke up. I looked at the table beside me and a smiled crept on my lips as I saw a paper bag with a note in it. It was a letter from Lucian, and he cooked food for me and Jacob. He's really thoughtful. One of the reasons why I fell in love with him before.I got off the bed and noticed another paper bag at the edge of the bed. It's larger than the one in the bedside table, and it has clothes, slippers, personal hygiene and such inside. It's from Lucian, too.My lips parted in shock as I realize that there are also underwear, and it's all my size. Gosh! That guy!Shaking my head, I went to the bathroom to take a bath. I did it quickly and went I stepped out of the bathroom, I froze. A woman in a business suit is standing beside the sleeping Jacob. Her arms are crossed against her chest, and she's frowning.I took another step
SamanthaI HUGGED myself as my lips trembled. It was so cold. I'm soaking wet and the wild wind isn't helping. I am standing in front of someone's house. It's been a long time since I've been here, and I'm hoping she's still here.The light lit and the door opened. A woman in nighties welcomed me as her eyes widened in shock. “SAM!”I awkwardly smiled at her. “Hi, R-Rachel.”“Oh, my God! Samantha! What happened to you?”Her question is like a button, it was like a trigger that my tears streamed down my face. Rachel immediately pulled me for a hug and gently dragged me inside her house. She lent me clothes and I quickly changed because I'm so cold. Rachel gave me a hot chocolate and a towel when I got back to the living area.She sat beside me and caressed my arms. “What happened, Sammy? Dylan said you were out of the town but yesterday, I saw the news. I was shocked. I tried to visit you in the hospital, but police didn't let me
SamanthaJacob found me. Now, he has just proven to me that he's a powerful person. Someone I didn't suspect him to be. He's a liar. He's no different from Dylan, and I hate them both.I saw him took his shades off as he speaks with Rachel. They are outside while I'm watching them through the window.I swallowed hard, and slowly caressed my tummy. It has only been three days, but he already found her.“Please… I really need to talk to Samantha,” I heard Jacob begging Rachel. I glanced at the high-end car behind him. It was his. “I'm sorry, Mr. Lee. Samantha left this morning. She said she will find her brother.”Rachel is good at making alibis, but I doubt he will believe her. I saw Jacob's jaw clenched. He aggressively blew a breath. “Shane Miller is with me, miss Rachel.”My eyes widened. W-What?My heart skipped a beat after what Jacob said. Shane is with… him? My brother Shane?I chewed my lower li
SamanthaI once attempted to kill the child in my womb. I hate the fact that this is a child of a devil. I hate the fact that I had to bear Dylan's offspring, and I f-cking hate my fate because of it.I'm not a killer. I attempted to kill my own child, I attempted to kill Dylan, but I can't. I don't know why, despite the hell-like life I've been through, I always find conscience and kindness within me. I feared myself, now, I'm more than scared because I almost lose the baby I didn't wish to have.“You're lucky, your husband was fast to bring you here,” the doctor smiled at me and Jacob.I looked away and pressed my lips together. Husband. I dreamed of addressing him as my husband, so many times. Having him with me breaks my heart, yet seeing him walking away is too much for me. I don't wanna push him away. I love him, I really do. If it's just me, I will accept him wholeheartedly. I will accept the fact that he can bear to lie just so he can be with me, but… A l
SamanthaI felt like living in a scripted manner. I felt like a robot. I am living with the pain, and it's killing me every single day. It has only been two weeks. A week ago, Dylan was proven guilty of frustrated murder, illegal detention and many more that I couldn't even remember. He was sentenced to be in prison until his death. I should be happy now that I'm free, but I couldn't even grasp the freedom I've been dreaming of.It was a starry night, and I've been having a hard time sleeping. I went to the kitchen without opening the lights. I quickly drink water.I was ready to go back to the guest room where I'm staying when I heard noises from outside the house. Curious, I peek on the window behind the curtain. In front of the house, I found two people.I saw Rachel frustratedly messing her hair. In front of her was Rom, her long-time boyfriend. From what I'm seeing, he's drunk.“You tell me, Rachel. Why are you doing this to me?” Rom was almost pleading.I
SamanthaMy brother and I are both struggling as we live together in an apartment. After we left Rachel's house, Rom visited us and apologize for what he said, although I didn't really admit that I overheard their conversation. Three months later, Shane's investment works. Now, we're starting to live a normal and simple life while I'm pregnant with my child.Staring at my own reflection in the mirror, I was caressing my four months baby bump. I'm starting to move on, but I cannot really say that I'm happy. There's a big hole in my heart, and it's certainly Jacob's place. I miss him, so much. After our last conversation in the hospital, he didn't show up to me anymore. I can only see him through magazines, billboards, internet, and TV. I can say that he's definitely out of my reach, but I can't stop my heart from beating for him.“Sammy!”I quickly wore my robe and went out of my room. I saw Shane sitting on his wheelchair. He smiled at me as he po
