Chapter Ten
Today I was swamped at the office. I kept thinking about Lora and the day just wouldn't go by. I was so out of it.
The moment I got home I was greeted by Max, my german shepherd, and then I immediately went to bed. God, today was exhausting...
I had been sleeping for a couple of hours when the phone rang. I checked the caller ID and Lora's face popped up on the screen.
"Angel?" I heard Lora pant. Was she running?
"I need help! There- There was someone in my house, and now I'm running, and there's no one around here." She said and I heard her soft sobs. I was out of bed in a heartbeat.
"I'll be there in a few. Keep moving and go towards the small gas station, ok? The one that's on the way to your house?" I instructed her and grabbed my car keys. There was a long silence, nothing but pants could be heard on the other side of the phone.
"Angel? Are you there?"
"Yeah... I'll see you in a bit." I heard her reply as I was getting in my car.

"So how are you keeping up honey?" Lora asked when we sat down at the luxurious sofas in the living room. She kept looking over her shoulders. Derek and Jack were sitting at the other end of the room."Don't worry about them. They look intimidating, but once you get to know them you'll see that they are quite the cinnamon roles!" I joked and the guys send playful glares my way."You know, it's been really weird if I'm being honest, I never really expected to be in a situation like that and now I'm thrown in it. But! Alex has been so sweet and supportive and kind and so understanding through this whole thing and you can't imagine how helpful that has been. I don't know how we used to be before my accident but I can surely tell you that I really care about this man, Lora... I don't know if I'd call this love -it's too early for that- but there is something there... I guess I'll just have to wait and see..." I said honestly and Lora was looking at me dumbfounded.I

"Evie! Are you still there??" I heard my best friend's voice on the other end of the phone talking to me."Yeah, Lora. I'm here" I almost whispered through my sobs."So... what happened girl. It better be serious because I canceled a manicure session for you" Lora said seriously.She is a very witty girl, from an extraordinarily rich family as well. Her dad, Ian Grand, is one of my father's good friends. They were best friends all their lives and helped each other no matter what. Lora has brown hair and hazel eyes. Her mom is a fashion designer, and we model for her from time to time. Lora and I were raised together, and we are and will be best friends for the rest of our lives."Actually, I was thinking you could come over," I said, my voice weak from crying."Oh, Evie... What's wrong?" Lora said."The thing is that something bad happened. Like bad. And I really need you I cannot go through this alone. " I said with a broken voice and start

"It's okay George." he then said "I already had a business dinner to attend" I couldn't just stand there hearing him talking about me like I was some chore he was obligated to do. I grabbed Lora's hand and before she could say anything dragged her into the elevator. "Thank god it's over!" I nearly screamed at Lora when we entered the elevator. "Well, it was definitely crazy! But.. you have to admit that he looks hot." Lora said smirking. "You are a lucky girl! Wish I had your luck!" she sighed with a pout on her face. "If you want him he is all yours" I replied mockingly. He is just a handsome man; nothing more, nothing less. Plus I don't want to marry him. Not to mention that his voice full of authority and that is pissing me off. I don't belong to him! I'm not his property! "Leave them, George! As long as Evie is okay with her part of the deal then there is nothing else to say." his words never leave my mind. I wanted so muc

I tried to open my eyes but the light was too much to handle. I felt my body ache...My arms, my legs, not to mention my abdomen. It felt like a hundred needles were piercing my entire body.I tried harder and harder and I eventually managed to move my eyelids, the light was too bright but I opened them. I had to...I looked around. I was definitely not in my bedroom...The place around me looked like a hospital. The walls, as well as the floor, are white. There are curtains in a light shade of blue covering the window. A chair is beside me but there's no one there... I look at my body and my hands are full of cables connected with all kinds of machinery. On the screens, there are strange numbers and measurements and a steady beeping fills the room.Even though my body is so tired and heavy I have to get up and get the hell out of here... During the last year, I had developed a fear of hospitals... Not the best experiences... Not after what happened...&nbs
Forced In Marriage Chapter Four
Saying that I was so shocked is the one thing that completely described me when I heard Evie say she doesn't remember me. It was fun at first but when I realized that she was deadly serious I couldn't do anything but stand there and look at her like she was some sort of an alien.On the other hand, though, what am I supposed to do, or say?After we called for the doctor we had to exit the room and Lora called her parents. They came as soon as they heard. The moment they stepped foot in the hospital we could hear George yelling at nurses demanding to see his daughter. After calming them down, we sat with them waiting for the doctor.We didn't talk much though, we just sat in silence. You could hear a pin drop.The doctor stepped out of the room and took George and Ellen to his office.The thoughts in my mind were driving me crazy. I could not think straight. I had to think of the deal that would be obviously delayed or maybe even canceled, but I als
Forced In Marriage Chapter Five
The moment Evie's words left her mouth, I felt devastated. And on top of that, her parents agreed with that man, Lockwood, and now not only does she have to marry him, but also, she is to believe that they are in love and willingly engaged! What makes me even more frustrated is the fact that I can't do anything about it! I was walking up and down the corridor of the hospital trying to figure something out. What if I kidnapped her? "Whatever you're thinking I'm pretty sure it won't work. Not when you frown that much…" I heard a voice behind me and turned around fast enough to get myself a nasty cramp. I eyed the man in front of me. He had the typical playboy image, styled hair, designer clothes, and a smirk that makes you feel weak in the knees. If I didn't know better I would say he was a good guy, but Jordan Black was far from it. "Jordan, right?" I looked at Alexander's friend who was smirking at me. "Yes indeed. And you are? I don't
Forced In Marriage Chapter Six
After George talked with the doctor and filled in the paperwork, we were finally able to leave the hospital. Evie had fallen asleep in my arms while we were driving back to my penthouse. George decided it would be best if we started living together so that her memory would -and I quote- 'come back' sooner. I really feel bad but what's done is done and there's nothing I can do about it... I look down at her. She is so calm, so oblivious of everything that's happening around her... When we arrived at the building, she was still sleeping so I just picked her up bridal style, and walked inside. The elevator ride was silent but then I felt Evie moving. She didn't wake up though. She was probably dreaming. She moved again and that's when she started mumbling things in her slumber. She was having a nightmare. "Evie, it's just a dream," I whispered in her ear but she wouldn't listen to me. She started moving more intensely and she was now scr
Forced In Marriage Chapter Seven
I was walking down a dark alley and then suddenly a shadow appeared out of nowhere. He lunged at me but I kicked him and started running. I ran and I ran but there was never an end to this hell. Another figure appeared and tried to do the same. I continued running and I looked behind me for a brief moment. Big mistake... The two figures approached me rapidly when I fell on something or actually someone hard. I looked up and I screamed at the top of my lungs. This can't be happening to me. The man held me strongly in his arms. "Leon, let me go! Please..." I said but my voice broke and it came out more like a whisper. "Not a chance sweetheart. You killed me! Now it's my turn!" he growled through his teeth. I looked at him. At the man I once loved... he had changed so much. He had a huge scar on his left cheek and instead of his kind and warming smile he had an evil grin plastered on his face.
