MY POUND OF FLESH Chapter Thirty-Five
Mace's PovWhen I got home, her things were still there, but she wasn't. I immediately stepped outside to ask her guards, but the guards said she hadn't come home. I grabbed Leo by the neck and punched him a few times in the face, asking him why on earth he would leave her all alone.He kept on giving pathetic excuses, but I wasn't in the mood to listen to his gibberish. I was so nervous and scared that something might have happened to her. I paced my room a couple of times and then decided to call her best friend. It rang a couple of times, but she didn't answer. I made Ray call Grace and report to me if she had seen Tilda. I grabbed a bottle of whiskey from the liquor cabinet, poured some out into a glass, and poured it in at once.I was growing impatient as I waited for Ray's call. A few minutes later, my phone rang, and I picked it up immediately. I sighed in relief when he told me Tilda was with grace. He tried to get me to change my mind and not

I grabbed the desk to regain composure; it was another symptom I had been experiencing lately and always feeling dizzy and tired. I sat down on the chair to regain myself before stepping out. I kept wondering why the heck I was feeling so dizzy. Even when I do little things that don't require much strength, I find myself panting like someone who fell from the sky. I did put it on my to-do list to visit the hospital at the end of the week.I dropped the car key on the desk and managed to come downstairs. I hailed a cab because I was feeling too dizzy to drive. I would have canceled on Dad, but I do know him well. If I should so much as tell him I'm not feeling strong, it will make him worry a lot, and he has been doing a lot of that since Mace and I broke up.I got to my dad's apartment, and he was surprised to see me alone."Where is Grace?" Dad asked me, holding the door while looking past me to see if she was behind me. I told him she went to a party, gave him a peck, and walked pas

I rolled my eyes at him and zoomed off. He was just so full of himself, that I looked through the rear mirror to make sure he wasn't following me. The last thing I want is a handsome stalker, I sighed in relief when I didn't see his car behind me. I made a mental note to grab some hangover soup ingredients for the party girls. I guess they partied pretty hard yesterday night.I got home to meet Sasha in the sitting room, still lying down with the curtains closed. The whole place was reeking of something awkward and stuffy. I dropped what I bought at the kitchen counter and came right back to the sitting room. I pulled open the curtains, and the sunlight found its way into the room."Ouch, that hurts!" Sasha screamed, rolling over to hide from the sun"Are you a vampire? The room is way too dark, for heaven's sake," I snapped at her."Where the heck is Grace and Karen? I asked Sasha while looking around the room to see if I could get a glimpse of them."Over there," she said, pointing

He was smiling smugly at me. I was speechless as I stood still, wondering if this was a coincidence or if he was stalking me. I mean, the first and second times might have been a coincidence, but this third time, I found it hard to believe."Did that bastard send him to follow me? I asked myself, I don't know why I felt like someone has been watching me for a while now; maybe it's just in my head. "Hold on, maybe it is those sick fucks that have been after my life since the very day I accepted that stupid contract." What do they want from me? I'm no longer with Mace; if they want him dead, they could just go kill him; hell, I don't even mind lending a hand."Do you know him? Karen asked while Sasha and Karen stared at me. Their voice brought me back."No""Yes!" we both answered together; they were all looking at me in surprise."Not really, but I ran into him today at school; Can you give us a second?"They nodded. Karen was the first to walk away; Grace followed her, while Sasha di

It was a beautiful day, and I was kind of happy that I was going to spend the day with the girls. We planned to hit the saloon later in the day, do a little shopping, and eat out before going home. We all ate breakfast at Karen and Sasha's apartment and sat down a little to gossip before we entered our apartment with grace to prepare for our fun day. I freshened up and was searching for what to wear when Grace came into my room."Tilda, can I borrow your red jacket, please?" Grace asked, making faces at me."Sure," I said to her, smiling. I took out the red leather jacket and handed it over to her. She pecked me on the cheek and danced out of the room. Grace is always fun to be with. I laughed before turning to my closet to search for what to wear."Damn, looking for what to wear sometimes can be so stressful," I thought to myself. When I heard Sasha and Karen enter our apartment, I quickly took out a mini white gown, a blue jacket, and sneakers to go with it. I could hear them hurryi

MY POUND OF FLESH Chapter Forty-One
Kieran drove on the tarred road for a while before he turned to some forest path, and that was when I began losing consciousness. I tried pretty hard to keep my eyes open, but it was all in vain. I could hear when the car came to a halt and he opened his door, closed it back, and came around to my side. He opened the door and lifted me gently in his arms. He placed me on a bed, and I rolled on the side before dozing off.I opened my eyes the next morning, and I couldn't figure out where I was; the room was unfamiliar. I turned to the right to see Kieran sitting on the chair and placing his head on the bed as he slept so soundly. I tried recalling what had happened and why he was sleeping like that, but I decided not to. I tried sitting up on the bed, but I woke him up instead."You are up already," he murmured while yawning. He placed his right hand on my forehead. I was surprised by his action, but I kept quiet. He nodded and pulled his hands away from my forehead."What happened to
