I would also like you to know that I will be resting for a month before I write another piece. Nonetheless, I would like to thank my editor who has been with me this entire year of me writing under GoodNovel. I really appreciate your guidance, together with the GoodNovel. Now that I closed Gavin and Amara's story, I will be looking forward to opening a new book as we embrace new characters again.Thank you and Happy New Year, everyone! Your Author, itsclarixass
PrologueExplosion"Where is she? Bring that fvcking b*tch to me!" The woman shouted. Her voice echoed in the place. She just attacked the hideout of the Gabriel clan all by herself.Going there alone was so brave of her. She was fuming mad, wanting to kill their Mafia boss. The rage inside her chest was sinking. She was holding two guns, facing the men who were all pointing their guns at her. One wrong move and she will eat bullets from them."Are you thinking?" One of the men asked with a chuckle. She knows, they were all thinking that she's losing her mind for going here. "It seems like you're digging your grave," the man added with that sly smirk on his lips. "Bring me your boss," she said firmly, wearing her deadly eyes. The sound of every footstep she made, wearing her boots, was filling the entire place. As soon as her men heard it, they automatically created a way for her. Their guns were still focused on the woman, not looking away from her as the woman she was looking fo
Chapter 1Ocean Waves"Hey, Rio. Did you drive my daughter to the airport?" Amara's father asked when Rio had just arrived at their house after driving Amara to the airport."Yes, I did. I guess I have to wait for two weeks before I finally marry her," he uttered with a bitter smile. Both of them sighed with his reaction. They all knew how the two of them wanted to marry each other as soon as possible. If only Amara doesn't need to do something in Canada, they are probably married by now. "Amara is also devastated that you have to wait," her mother spoke and blew out a heavy breath. "That's fine, I can wait. Besides, everything's ready. We just have to wait for the bri—""Uncle!" All their eyes were captured to the entrance of the red-haired Gabriel, Amethyst Gabriel. She was taking a huge step towards them, wearing that fierce face with a glimpse of worries from her eyes. "Amethyst. Is there something wrong?" Amara's father asked."You drove her to the airport, right?" Amethyst
Chapter 2Lost memories"Sir, she has a fever." Misty said while wiping the woman with the wet towel. She already has a comforter that was rolled in her entire body, but she's still shivering in the cold. Gavin also asked the maid to turn off the aircon for her. "That's normal. She was floating on the ocean with a lot of deep wounds," the old lady said while preparing everything to treat the woman."Are you sure that she can treat her?" Gavin asked. He never once met anyone who's not a doctor who knows how to treat an ill person. That's why he couldn't help but to doubt her capabilities."Sir, she's the only one we have here. There's no doctors or nurses near the island," Misty said while panicking."Whatever. Just make sure to treat her," he said and marched out of the room. "Sir, I can't be wrong. That woman is the one who's currently missing," the old man mentioned, the husband of the old lady who was treating her. Gavin quickly stopped when he said that. "She's all over the new
Chapter 3Double lies"Amethyst, have you found something?" Amara's mother asked immediately when Amethyst arrived at their place. The media are outside, asking for their words regarding what happened to Amara Gabriel. "I found nothing," she uttered in distress. They all have been frustrated. It's been two days since Amara vanished and the incident happened. In just a blink of an eye, Amara Gabriel went missing and none of them knows if she's dead or alive. "I've been searching. My men have no sleep," Agatha mentioned with her eyes closed filled with frustration."Our enemies will take this as an advantage to attack us," her father said while staring into nothing. "I need an update!" All of their eyes were captured when they heard Rio yelling at his men outside. The piece of crumpled newspaper dropped on the floor. Rio Blaze was devastated, losing it all. He has been looking for Amara and he couldn't even have a nap. "If you have to swim the ocean, do it! If you have to check eve
Chapter 4 Play with the fire"What are you talking about, sir?" Misty whispered in her lowest voice and blocked the woman in front of Gavin. "Just ride with it," he replied shortly and pulled her out of his sight. Now, his eyes dropped at Amara Gabriel who was really lost. She was staring into nothing with her brows crossed. He just found himself smirking as he watched her process that in her head. "H-How long have we been married?" She asked and forced a tiny smile. She was uncomfortable and Gavin could see it through her face. To be honest, his reckless decision also surprised him. He should not meddle in the first place with whatever mess Amara was in along with her clan. But the moment he looked at her earlier, with her enticing and dazzling innocent eyes at him, it felt like his mind suddenly flew in the air and made a very reckless decision. "You two have been married for a y—""Almost a year now," Gavin said. Her brows met even more. "Why didn't you go near me when I wo
Chapter 5DistantIt was early in the morning. The chirping of the bird woke up Luna or should we say, Amara. She slowly opened her eyes and blinked repeatedly. Her entire body still feels heavy like a huge stone that she could not move yet. The curtains were opened a bit to allow the sunshine to penetrate inside her room. The bright sun was hitting her on the bed but it didn't hurt her skin. Luna drew a small smile but it also faded from her lovely lips. She still feels lost. She woke up again feeling like her brain doesn't have anything. Luna finally sat on the bed. The mirror beside her greeted her by showing herself on it. It got her thinking, captured her eyes. Her eyes were glued at herself. Even how much she eyed herself, she still doesn't remember a thing about her. How she got married, and how she became like this. Even though they already told them everything, it still feels like a lot of things about her are missing. "Ah," she uttered and massaged her forehead when it su
Chapter 6Missing connectionGavin Clyborne. He looks kind and a soft-hearted man. Luna will never deny that her husband is handsome like a prince and hot as fvck. He can easily capture every woman's eyes just by walking without any intention of making them fall. The people on the island like him a lot. She kept hearing good words from them, especially how her husband plans to restore this beach resort that will also benefit all of them. He has that hairstyle like the usual haircut of the Korean people. His eyes were simple black eyes, but there is something from those that will make any woman tremble. His nose is perfectly shaped. It's pointed that every person will envy. Those lips were a bit thick that they could seduce every woman in just a second. "He's a businessman?" Luna asked Misty while she was telling her more about Gavin."Yes. Your husband doesn't just own this entire island. He has a lot of businesses in the country and even in other countries. The Clybornes are d*mn
