"The patient is awake now. You can go and see him if you want to" A nurse said to a worried Noelle. She nodded, shoving her hands into the pockets of her jacket. Sighing, she pushed open the door to the ward and walked in. Val's dull eyes met hers and tears filled her eyes. What would have happened if she hadn't come to the bathroom when she had?
He looked so weak and drained, her heart broke for him."I'm sorry" he croaked."I-I didn't know you were suicidal" she said, trying to hold back the tears.He lowered his gaze, his fingers fumbling with the bed sheets."How many times have you thought about it?" Noelle asked."A couple of times" he replied."How many times have you attempted it?" She asked.He swallowed hard, staring at her with a blank look in his eyes. "Three times""H-how?

"I'm sorry about what he said to you" Noelle said to Valentino when they got into the car. He sighed, turning away from her."He wasn't supposed to say that to you....""I hate therapists, Noelle. Now, I hate them even more" he said."You wouldn't mind me being your therapist?" She asked with a sheepish grimace.He stared at her, puzzled."You aren't serious, are you?" He asked. "I want you to get better, Val. You can't get better if I don't help you"He heaved another sigh, rubbing his eyes. "I don't know, Noelle...."She squeezed his hand reassuringly and pulled out of the parking lot. When they got to Noelle's home, Valentino inhaled sharply and got out of the car."Have you made up your mind yet?" Noelle asked."Not yet""It's for your own good, just so you know"As soon as this got in, Noelle froze. Val stared at her confused. Then, he saw

"Are you sure about this?" Xandre asked Dominic who was standing beside him with Dmitri."A hundred percent sure, Xan. He was with a red head" Dominic responded. The trio was standing by the large window in Dre's study."I guess it's time for us to pay him a visit" Dre said."Any time you're ready, Xan" Dmitri stated. He sighed."I want the two of you to go with two other guys" he said."We understand. We'll get going, then" Dom said."Make sure you're armed, just in case. Don't kill him if you find him. You have to make him come here, got it? Bring him to me""Yes, boss" Dominic responded. They left Dre's study and he lowered himself onto his chair, thinking about the possibility of Valentino not being Emperor X. When Dre's men got to the house, Dmitri felt a shiver run down his spine. The house itself looked like a haunted one and it had an ee

Noelle slowly sat down on a chair in the dinning room, her eyes drooping sleepily. She hadn't been getting any sleep lately, ever since she was stalked. She would always get nightmares each time she fell asleep. She couldn't keep going on like this, but she couldn't help it. She was on edge. Rubbing her eyes with her left hand, she brought the cup of coffee to her lips and sipped the hot liquid. Just then, the door opened and Valentino stumbled in. His eyes were bloodshot and he looked very tired. His eyes held dark bags and his hair was a horrible mess. She guessed that she wasn't the only one bothered. He hadn't been doing well either. Most nights, he would have night terrors and nightmares. With everything he had gone through, Noelle really didn't know how he was coping. He wouldn't say anything. He always had a blank expression on his face."Morning" she greeted."Morning" he replied, his

The constant threats coming from Emperor X still wouldn't die down and everyone in the Montero household was on edge. Ellise was worried about her boyfriend who seemed to be even more stressed as the days went by."I understand that you're concerned about all this, but you should know that we're working on it. The bastard seems to know how to play his game right and that's what makes it even more annoying" Dre said to Ellise, leaning back on his chair. Ellise was in Dre's study alongside Dominic and Dmitri who was sitting on one of the couches. She sighed, flopping down on the couch."Dominic, you have been receiving threat letters, haven't you?" She asked, her gaze meeting his.His eyes went wide."Yeah, Jade told me. Whoever emperor X is, he isn't giving up. What do we do? Everything is not alright. For starters, we know that Valentino is running away from something or someone. Could it be that emperor X is also after him?" Ellise s

Corey was a really nice guy and Noelle was convinced that he was a very close friend to Valentino. Although they were safe at the moment, she still didn't feel certain that they were safe. As far as she knew, Baron was very dangerous and she was almost certain that he wasn't done with them yet. Noelle wondered how Val had managed to endure being under him. Brianna, Corey's girlfriend was nice too. She was a regular visitor to her boyfriend's home and they all seemed to be getting along quite well."Hey, Noelle" Brianna said when Noelle opened the door to the sound of her knocking on the door."Hey, Bree. Come in" she responded.She grinned and stepped in.They settled down on the bed and began to chat about random stuff."So, you and Valentino" she said, wriggling her eyebrows.Noelle raised a brow."What about us?""You seem to have something nice going on between you two""I do

Staring at empty space, Valentino tried to wrap his head around what had happened a few days back. Despite everything he'd done to Alexandre, he'd been willing to forgive him without hesitation. Valentino didn't want to believe it. How could Alexandre forgive him so easily?"I can't believe you asked your brother to whip you" Noelle said from her position on one of the couches in Corey's sitting room. Val ignored her, his gaze directed at nowhere in particular. She sighed."I hope you know that he means it. He forgives you. You need to forgive yourself and let go of your self hatred. It really isn't healthy" she told him.He lowered his gaze.She was right, but what if they were both wrong?What if Alex actually wanted payback and would get it by pretending to forgive him. Valentino felt so confused. Noelle pinched Val on the arm and he winced, glaring at her playfully. "Ow! What

Alexandre stared at the ceiling, unable to sleep. It was barely few minutes past ten and he was having trouble sleeping. He didn't know what it was, but something kept bugging him. He heaved a sigh, laying on his side. It didn't help that he kept tossing and turning. The ringing of his phone awoke him. So, he sat up, pushing his messy hair away from his face. He picked the call and brought the phone to his ear. "Sir"Dre frowned at the sound of the chief security's voice."My apologies for waking you up from your night's rest" he said."You don't need to apologise, Dante. I wasn't asleep" Dre replied."There's a woman at the gate. She said she needs your help. She has an injured male in her car" Dante stated.Dre frowned, his brows creasing up as he rose to his feet.
