SCARLETT’S POV(A/n: This was before Scarlett’s leaving and her last conversation with Dominic.)“Wait… Why now?”I sighed and turned to face Claire.“Dominic will not stop as long as I am here.”She chuckled and pointed at me.“That fool really loves you, doesn’t he? He’ll do anything to please you.”In annoyance, I kicked her and crossed my arms.“Damn, why is he so annoying?!?”Claire giggled and wrapped her arms around me.“That’s why you liked Dominic because he was annoying, right, Mrs. Stone?” asked Claire with a smile, which irritated me.“Shut the f-ck up, Perkins!” I yelled, but she just laughed.“Let him be; he appears to be regretting what he did.”I sighed and leaned in my swivel chair.“It’s difficult Claire, especially now that I don’t know the safety of my children, so I’ll entrust the children to him,” I said, looking at the white board filled in pictures of Madrid Enterprise members.“It looks Solen is quiet now,” she said suddenly, which made me think.Solen went si
“We’ve arrived!”I smirked as it amazed me at the beauty of the island.“Nice!”I smirked and straightened up as the chopper had landed. I even turned to look at the siblings who were sitting.“Don’t you have a paper works?” I asked. The siblings smirked at me.“There are many people who will work for me,” said Erin, pointing to my forehead before taking my luggage and carrying it himself.I winced because occasionally, you just envy them because their lives appear to be easy. TSK.“I have many people who can handle that,” said Rios as he drew Dane into the hotel.I shook my head before following them. Maybe I would appreciate it if you had a lot of staff that could handle all the work you can leave, TSK.“Welcome to San Martin!”I smiled and nodded to the hotel managers who greeted us.I went inside the hotel. “Not bad,” I mumbled.The manager has already escorted us to our room, and I don’t see anyone else here. Carter appears to have planned for our arrival.I blinked as I realized
DOMINIC’S POV“The person you’re trying to reach is not available…”Darn it, one more time!“The person you’re trying to reach is not available…”Damn you, Scarlett! Where are you?!?I tried calling her again, but I couldn’t reach her, F-ck! You can’t just ignore me again. I got another beer and drank it; I need to talk to Scarlett again; we haven’t done talked yet.When my phone rang as I sat down, I answered it, thinking it was Scarlett.“Scarlett!”(“Do I look like Scarlett?”)I frowned and looked at the phone, wondering who it was.“Claire, huh?”(“Oh, you can’t believe I’d call you?!?”)I rolled my eyes, since I wanted to avoid talking to her.“What do you need?”(“Oh, f-ck, you asshole! Pick up the kids here! Scarlett entrusted her children to you! I can’t look after them because I have work!”)I winced and moved my phone away from my ear because the volume of her voice was causing my eardrums to burst.“Can you calm down—” I froze, and my eyes widened as I remembered what she s
THIRD POV“Damn it!”“Stay where you are and don’t move.”“However, m-master…”When their master gave him the death stare, Solen bowed down.“They gave you a strange drug, so you can’t go back to work yet,” he said solemnly to Solen.Solen leaned back, her entire body numb from the gun that Carter Knight had fired at her. It ruined all of her plans after the event, so it sent her back to San Martin for treatment after a strange medicine hit her entire body.As she is old, and her body will find it difficult to return to its previous state, a doctor was called to check her condition.“You bitch, Scarlett!” screamed Solen, punching her bed because she couldn’t move her legs.“I warned you, but you didn’t listen; the youngest of the Knights thinks otherwise, and you won’t know what she does next, especially since they’re quiet now.”Solen Madrid came to a halt and looked at their master, who sat in front of her.“Did you know they kicked your daughter out of the mansion?”She shook her h
THIRD POV“I’m leaving, mom,” said Dominic as he waved goodbye to his mother, who was still worried about what would happen to her son.“I’ll call, and I’ll call my children to say hello; don’t sulk.”Ashley said nothing while her son was caressing her because Dominic said nothing about leaving; she just knew when she saw him packing his belongings.“I have good news for you when I return.”Ashley only nodded, but it was clear she was still sulking with her son.“Please, just tell dad he will take care of the business, and I will return with Scarlett.”Dominic stood up, took his bag, looked at his mother again, and held her shoulder before walking out of the mansion, but his mother called him first.“Be careful, okay? You’ll be back alive, Dominic Austin,” said Ashley as she cried.Dominic burst out laughing and ran to hug his mother.“I’m not going to war, mom,” Dominic laughed, hugging his mother tightly. “But thank you so much; I promise I’ll be careful.”Ashley did nothing but nod
SCARLETT’s POV“F-ck!” I got up, holding my head because I didn’t know what had happened to me.We were in their hideout the last I remember, and Erin saved me. “Damn it, Erin, what are you doing?”“Oh, you’re awake.”As I realized who had spoken, I turned to face him. “What did you do to me?” I asked as I stood up.He smiled, but I locked my gaze on him. “What are you going to do with Erin?”He smiled again before sighing. “Don’t worry, he’s fine.”I clenched my fists and bit my lower lip. “They called you Master J earlier, which means you’re working with Solen Madrid!”I approached him to confront him because I didn’t know him and he wasn’t on Solen’s staff. I also checked each of their members, but he wasn’t on the list.“Who are you?!?”As he poured wine into the glass, he laughed.“Where am I? What happened to me? Are you planning on killing me?!?” I screamed and turned to punch him, but he grabbed my wrist quickly.He gave me a serious look. “I will not hurt you, unlike your hus
THIRD POVScarlett removed the mark on her arm before entering the suite. Jaguar didn’t put on a real tattoo on her because it seems the man wanted to tease her.“I swear, I’ll kill you! Argh!” she mumbled as she tossed the alcohol into the trash, then looked down at her swollen arm from rubbing it. “Damn, they’ll wonder what happened to my arm. TSK.”“You’re back, Scarlett.”It startled Scarlett when the door to their suite opened, so she hid her arm, so her companions wouldn’t notice. She finally entered their suite after nodding.She bit her lower lip because she wasn’t sure what she was going to tell her friend about what had happened to Erin.“Is Scarlett already here?!?”Scarlett came to a halt when she noticed Claire sitting on the sofa.“Damn you, bitch!” Claire hugged her, but Scarlett didn’t want to talk because she didn’t know what to say about what had happened.“Where is he?”Scarlett was frustrated, and tears welled up in her eyes as she remembered Erin being captured an
THIRD POVErin couldn’t believe who was standing right in front of him. He shook his head several times, as the beating had shaken his brain.“You’ve grown so well,”“Shut up! We thought you were dead!” Erin yelled as he struggled in Anderson’s grip, but it wouldn’t let him go.“Oh, Knight, I can’t die yet.”Erin was just struggling when Anderson dragged him in front of the old man.“You’re free to go, son,”“M-Master…”“He’s not going anywhere.”Anderson hesitated before leaving the old man’s office. The older man turned to face Erin.“You entered my territory mistakenly, Eric Knight,” the old man smirked as he took his cane and hit Erin on the back.“F-ck!” Erin screamed, glaring at the old man. “You even changed your name,” Erin stated. He was angered and couldn’t bear the pain in his body. “You are their master, and you cause everything; why have you returned? To bring us all down?”The old man grinned and punched Erin in the face. Erin licked his lips and spat the blood out.“Hmm
