Richard's POV“ What exactly are you saying? How dare you threaten us?” Martins raved. Does he know how he looked right now? If he did, he would have sat his ass back down on the chair and not moved an inch from where he was seated. He continued, “ Your family heirloom? How exactly do you know that? Let me guess, you are one of those people who are plying fake news? When exactly are you going to learn?” He forced a fake smile on his face. “ If it is, then why do you all look this agitated? I will be nice. Leave now, or I will let my dogs feed on you” I threatened. It wasn't a threat because my rage right now was enormous, and I could do it. Make sure that they all burnt to hell for it. “ You wouldn't” I bobbed my head, a bit startled and curious about what their faces would look like when my dogs were biting on their petty bones. Would they cry? Would they wince out in pain? Or plead for mercy? I was curious to know that. “ Then stay,” I sauntered toward the door.” Because I wi
Reina's POVNever had I seen him this hurt before, maybe when I had left, but this was something else. His grip tightened around mine as he kept gnashing his teeth in anger or was it pain? Emotions twirled through him, anger, anguish, and rage. All of which I could feel, and I didn't want him to feel all alone in this. Contrary to what we were made to believe, his parents had been shot dead and everyone was made to believe it was an accident when it wasn't. My heart squeezed so tight that it seemed it had been punctured. Repeatedly. “ Why? Why exactly would they kill them when they had already let go?” He questioned. Everyone was still because no one had an answer to the question he had just asked. Neither I nor Ryan. We were never going to know how bad he felt because we haven't been in that situation before, instead all that we could do was to sympathize with him and show him that we were here. My hands smoothened his when a tear dropped on it. My heart flattened as I raised m
Richard's POV “You have to come back to me, please” Reina didn't want to let me go. I didn't know what to do but me assuring her repeatedly was supposed to have helped and now… I exhaled deeply before patting her back.“ I will come back to you, healthy and fine. So you don't have to worry about that, okay?” I assured her, but it didn't seem like she was convinced by it.She was still, but I could feel the tiny droplets of tears as they rained down on me. They broke my heart and I didn't like that she was tearing up. I was going to do every single thing possible to be alive, and she knew that. “I know that you have to go right about now but what if something happens, what if I don't see you anymore and gosh…” she kept pacing up and down. She was sure moving so fast and now as I threw a glance at Ryan, I muttered to him about the initial plan of leaving while she was fast asleep, but he had contradicted it and looked at where it had gotten us into. “ I am going to come back to you
Richard's POVI was done with one, but I had one more, one more that needed to go down. For that, I will have to go to the dark organization, it wouldn't be an easy target like Martins had been because it was vast, and it wasn't going to be easy to get in. I was going to desecrate that place, the very one that had killed my parents. The one that I was supposed to head over after my parents, and I didn't know if I wanted that. It didn't boil well with me and now, I was left contemplating on that. “ What is it going to be?” We were a few minutes away from Martin's house, but we could still see the thick smoke which was visible from here. “ The bodies? The fake one? Did you place them in?” “ Yes boss” “ Good” they would be various interviews to find out what exactly had happened to him and I didn't want anything pointing hands at me Luckily, I had ample time to get my men on this case as well. It was working out fine for me. What I had to do was get in contact with them later and m
Reina's POVSleep eluded me because I couldn't think about anything else aside from Richard at the moment. Was he fine? Was he okay? The one at Martin's house was successful? I had seen it in the news and everyone kept blaming him on how careless he had gotten. He had been blamed and numerous girls had come out to share how bad of a person he was and how he kept asking them for sex multiple times with gruesome demands, and I didn't know what else to say. Was I supposed to be scared of Richard? And what can he do? I didn't know but all I needed was for him to come back fine and strong. “ Take a chill pill, you are pacing up and down, and you might end up being dizzy, don't you want Richard to see you fit and fine?” Ryan chipped in. I tried to be calm, but I just couldn't. How could I when Richard wasn't here yet and what exactly was he up to? I gulped in, downing the glass of water Daisy had left a while ago. It was sure coming in handy now. “ Thank you, Daisy,” she nodded at me w
Reina’s POVI clung onto him like my life depended on it. Everything was breaking apart for me. First, Richard, it wasn't clear to me why but guilt clawed at me, it threatened to tear me apart as I blinked repeatedly. My hands ran through his face once more with tears streaming down my face. Footsteps echoed down the hallway, “Shit” Ryan cursed, his knees dropped to the ground beside Richard as he tilted his head at me. “ What happened? Why is he!? What has gone wrong?” I swallowed my words in because I didn't know what to say, was I to say I had messed things up? It seemed to be something that I frequently do, and it was getting out of hand already. “ Somebody should call an ambulance. I will go with him to the hospital with you and Darren and the other men will tidy up the hall, it wouldn't be nice if the police walks in here and see blood littered all over. They would want you to explain, which we can't afford“ he let out all at once. I bobbed my head when I thought about it
Reina’s POVRyan had insisted on me changing my outfit before going for my checkup. He was just beginning to panic too much, and whenever I tried to rebuff, he would bring up the word that Richard wouldn't want me doing that. Moreover, it was mandatory for me to do so. The press might be snooping around for something, and seeing me sauntering around in a gown covered with blood would surely raise brows. Daisy's hands gripped mine, she had a smile on her face. My silent sobs had stopped, and now I felt better. Gloomy yes, maybe it might be worse, but for now, just knowing that Richard was out of danger was better. Ryan had walked away shortly afterward with the excuse that he had to make sure that Darren had tidied up things the way he wanted. I made a mental note to tell Richard all that he had been doing, having a friend just like him was everything. He had done most of the work, while trying so hard to stay strong. I could bawl my eyes out, but he didn't. He had let everything w
Reina's POV My mother's hand clasped around my wrist as she pulled me alongside her. “ You are pregnant?” She asked as though she hadn't heard earlier. What exactly was the reason that she kept on asking all over again? Shrugging that off I bobbed my heart excitedly. My heart almost spilling over like it had a bottle corked over on it when she said, “ You can't keep it, you have to get rid of it” I blinked repeatedly trying to get it in because it sounded so funny to me all of a sudden. “ Sorry? I didn't get what you had said earlier, I might have heard it wrong”“ You can't keep the baby, Reina. You have to get rid of it” I took a step backward, my heart squeezing so fast that I was finding it so difficult to breathe all of a sudden. Flipping my head to the side, I mumbled. “ No” I rebuffed her. What exactly was she thinking? How could she even say something like that? “ You can't tell me to get rid of my baby. It's mine” I reminded her when she tried to take a step to match w
