Foxy And Her Guardian 40: The Nature of the Feelings
Mateo, Faith, Levi, and Blaire left the island earlier than Faith imagined. The sun was barely up when Levi took her belongings to the port. Blaire was with Jeremy since he will be here for another week – they were saying goodbye to each other. Kami came to see her off before the sun even came up, while Mateo was wordlessly standing behind Kami – just observing the two saying goodbye. Faith had tears rolling down her face, while Kami’s eyes were glossy and red as well. He has been crying previously. He sniffled as Faith put her palm on her cheek, “Kami, you have my number. If you ever need anything – just give me a call. I will always be there for you,” She said to him. She was very keen on returning to the city, but she was also sad to leave Kami and this place behind. For more than a month, this place was her home. Everyone treated her so well here. She is going to miss this place so dearly. Kami sniffled, “Of course, Sister Faith. Please, take care of yourself.” Kami said to her.
Foxy And Her Guardian 41: The Housemate and the Captive
After spending a few hours in Mateo’s penthouse, Faith established a few things about the man. One, Mateo screams money. The place is insanely luxurious with two stories, a patio, and a pool as a part of a penthouse! Two, Mateo is a dull person. His penthouse divides into three major colors, white, black and grey – much like his wardrobe. Faith doesn’t mind it. She believes the place looks extremely sophisticated because of the use of fewer colors. Three, Mateo loves gardening. The man has many indoor and outdoor plants – which according to Blaire, he likes to look after himself when he has time. And the four and most important thing that Faith learned was, that Mateo Nixon has a pet cat! Faith was currently sitting on the floor, with a beautiful and very chubby orange cat lazily laying on the floor in the sun. “Hey, Rex!” Faith cooed the cat in a squeaky voice. Rex looked at Faith before she stretched herself and yawned. Faith couldn’t help but giggle. This was such a pleasant surpr
Foxy And Her Guardian 42: To Deceive In The Name Of Love
“Did you hear anything from Aldo?” Faith asked Mateo as they sit in his office at his penthouse. He recently returned from work/club and asked Faith to join him in his office. He asked Steven to look into the number that Howard called daily before he died, and he got the result, but before Mateo could bring it up, Faith asked him about Aldo. Mateo heaved a sigh and pinched the bridge of his nose, “No,” He replied as he took off his black jacket and put it behind his chair. He was wearing a typical white button-up shirt under it. He uncuffed the sleeves and rolled them up. He seems like he was back from an important meeting. Faith didn’t ask where he was, instead she just wordlessly noticed how frustrated he looked when she mentioned Aldo. “It is like he vanished from the face of the earth,” He muttered under his breath. “Anyway,” He shook his head and turned to look at Faith, who was sitting on the grey L-shaped couch in the corner of his office. She was wearing a yellow blouse and
Foxy And Her Guardian 43: Death is a Choice
(Trigger Warning! Mention of Violence/Torture)Faith asked Levi and Mateo to her some alone time with Ethan, who was already chained up to the painfully small chair. Since he was not in any position to harm Faith, the two men walked out – leaving Faith alone with Ethan, who was barely awake. Faith felt a shiver running down her spine when she saw Ethan. Her eyes filled with tears when she recalled his innocent face that always had a smile on it. It was not covered with bruises, cuts, and blood. His hands were chained behind the chair, while his legs were chained to the legs of the chair. Faith flinched at the state he was in. He was completely hosed down from head to toe. She realized that Mateo and Levi’s form of torture isn’t just physical. Levi hasn’t let Ethan sleep for the last twenty-four hours. Therefore, he looked like he was about to pass out. He could barely keep his eyes open. Whenever his eyes drop, Levi or someone from his men wakes Ethan up by hosing him down with cold
Foxy And Her Guardian 44: Rejection And Deception
“Who was their target this time? Me or you? If it was me, then they clearly sent someone new after me. Or is it even the same person that sent Ethan?! What if it is someone new?!” Faith is completely panic-stricken since they came back to Mateo’s penthouse securely. If the car wasn’t bulletproof and if Mateo didn’t drive like a madman and was able to dodge them, Faith would have been dead – or perhaps both of them would have died.Faith is shaken. It is the third attack on her since she came to Mateo. They have been back to the penthouse for almost an hour, but she still hasn’t been able to calm herself down. Her heart is still racing in her chest. Her palms are clammy. And her head has started to throb. She strolled back and forth in the living room with her eyes burning with tears. She ran her fingers through her hair. She is overwrought, and Mateo can see that. Mateo put one hand on his hip while with the other one he scratched his forehead, “If could be anyone. It is time you sto
Foxy And Her Guardian 45: The Tale of Betrayal
In the eye of the world, the Bianchi and Ricci families were friends and business partners. The alliance between the two families enjoyed the monopoly of the market for almost a century. For the world, they were inseparable but as the generation succeed, the greed to enjoy the sole monopoly rot the relationship between the two clans – still in the eyes of the world, they pretended to be one unit, whereas behind the curtain the families schemed to take one another down. Their disapprobation for each other was never apparent – not even to each other’s faces or in private. Both families hold a sweet knife at each other’s throats. (A/N: Sweet knife is used as an idiom in some cultures. It roughly translates to sugarcoat the deception.)The beef between the families intensified when Aldo Bianchi and Aurora Ricci (Mateo and Dante’s mother) came into power. Mateo’s father was killed before he could take his father and grandfather’s place as the head of the family, which the Ricci family blam
Foxy And Her Guardian 46: Always Around
“Flashback (2 Years Ago)”It was a simpler time for Faith. She had a pretty average life two years ago. She was going to college. She had her family around. She had her friends. She just started working and started becoming more financially independent. She was prioritizing her future. She was doing everything a twenty-year-old does. What she didn’t know was that something else was being prepared for her future. She didn’t know how catastrophic everything was going to become in just two years. People were already keeping an eye on her. They were stewing the worse possible future for her, and one of those people was no one other than Mateo. “Urgh, Mr. Lopez is going to give me grey hair! I can’t keep up with his assignments anymore!” Lara, one of Faith’s university mates, complained. Faith chuckled and playfully hit Lara on the back of her head with her book. “Be thankful, at least he does negative mark your projects unlike Mrs. Wilson – urgh!” Faith rolled her eyes. Lara chuckled,

How was your relationship with your other siblings and parents? But what is normal about Faith’s life that she gets to ask such mediocre and bonding questions to her elder brother? Nothing…Instead, Faith had other questions, which would petrify any ordinary person – such as: What does the Bianchi family does? What is the story of Zeta and Dante? Who does Kai think is trying to kill Faith? Why is Mateo not trusted by Kai? How well does Kai know Mateo? Where is Aldo hiding? Is he even alive? Who sent Ethan after her? And everything about murders, betrayal, revenge, and crimes. Never did she think, her life would revolve around the factor that she hates the most – violence.
