“Then how did everyone find out that I’m Annalise and not Rose Vergara?” I inquired.Zeno cleared his throat and caressed my shoulder using his thumb. “Everything was planned. That woman is one of Thaddeus’ agents. We planned everything, especially when she heard about your breakup with your ex-boyfriend.”His face puckered when he remembered that scene. I was devastated before because the man that I loved broke up with me and accused me of being busy with my career, but I ended up getting rejected after passing the novel to my editor.All of them didn’t talk when Zeno answered the question and it hit my head hard when I realized that I cheated before without thinking.I silently let out a curse and bit my lower lip. Probably that was the reason his face crumpled because I got into a relationship while I lost my memories because of the accident. But I swear that I had no clue that I was in a relationship with Zeno!“I know what you are thinking,” Zeno muttered when he saw my face turn

The harmonious symphony that’s coming from Ciara’s phone replenished the entire area. The luminous smile was written on their expressions until it turned out to be an amusing laugh.They all look delighted while Elijah is talking, sharing experiences in his life, but Kazimir keeps his face straight. Happiness isn’t striking on his face, but I can see his eyes glisten even if he’s a little distant from me.We all had a wonderful dinner. It’s vibrant, and it was all thanks to them because they visited us here. However, after learning what our problem is, I can’t help but feel distressed. Everyone was trying to live as they could even if they were chased by death.I had an awful feeling about this, but this wasn’t the right time to waste this wonderful evening. Hopefully, this emotion will vanish.They spent their night here at Kazimir’s house. It’s kinda huge and I don’t know how many rooms it has, but Zeno decided to sleep in my room.After we shared the same bed and did that thing, I

“Zeno!”“Yes, baby?”“I wanted to eat ramen but I don’t know how to make it.”“Leave it to me.”“Huh? Do you know how to cook?”“Of course! Have you forgotten that it’s one of my past times?”“We’re going to watch a movie.”“Right now? But I’m still doing my homework. Did you finish yours?”“Yes. I’ll fetch you, okay?”“But I’m doing my homework, Zeno!”“Bring your homework so I can teach you how to answer that.”“How did you know that I’m having a tough time resolving it?”“I just know.”“Zeno!”“Why are you screaming?”“It’s because of the photo that you have uploaded to your social media account! What was that?”“So they know what your role is in my life?”“They flood it with a bunch of comments, Zeno! My gosh!”“It’s okay. You deserve to be recognized as my woman, so what’s wrong with that? And so guys know their limits too.”“What’s your real motive? To warn the guys or to warn the girls to back off?”“To warn the guys. I hate seeing them following you, so I posted our photos and

“I don’t know if she will wake up now.” I mentally creased my forehead. Someone is talking but I can’t wake up. I’m aware that I’m sleeping, but why can’t I wake up?“It’s been 18 hours, Reese!” a familiar voice said. Wait — is that Zeno?“Dude, calm down. I know that she will wake up.”What are they talking about? Their voices are familiar but I can’t distinguish who they are. And come to think of it, my memories are back.Everything that happened before, I can now remember. I must say that we’ve been through a lot, especially Zeno, who did everything he could just to save me and protect me from his opponents.He isn’t cruel. He’s freaking risking his life for me and here I am, believing what the woman named Rose said before that he’s a cruel man. Although they told me that everything was planned, I can’t help but feel bad.“Zeno, I’m sorry for not being able to be at your side while you are striving so hard just to survive and get the justice that you are aiming for.”I wanted to te

“You’ve been eating weird foods ever since you woke up, Annalise,” Ciara uttered, and when I glanced at her for a moment, her worried facial expression welcomed me.“What?” I asked while eating a strawberry that was chopped into bite-size pieces with banana and chocolate on top. Zeno also places some nuts, marshmallows, and edible gold.Seeing the food that Zeno prepared, my mouth watered, so I didn’t think twice about tasting it. If I was going to rate this, it’s an excellent job, 100/100.“It’s weird to dip the banana in chocolate, Annalise,” she muttered, but I just shook my head at her. Some of our friends were just looking at me, enjoying the food that Zeno prepared.I don’t know why they’re concerned about me eating mangoes that were dipped into sweet shrimp sauce, then proceeding to eat strawberries and bananas with chocolate on top and sprinkled with marshmallows and nuts.“You skipped heavy meals, Annalise,” Jake uttered, one of Zeno’s friends. His full name is Adrielle Jake

“You want to eat mango with spicy shrimp sauce?” Zeno asked. We’re in my room, watching movies on the TV with his arms on my waist. It’s been days since we’ve been like this, being sweet with each other, but sometimes, his scent makes my face crumpled and I can’t even find a reason I hated his smell. Since then, he decided to use my perfume, which suits him more. From being smelly to a classic, glamorous fragrance, sweet but balmy, slightly sharp floral with fresh mandarin on the top; jasmine, plum, orchid, and rose. Isn’t it pleasing to smell him like me? I nodded my head and looked at my husband, who was now sighing deeply. “Why do you like eating those?” “Because it is delicious!” I screamed, but he just gazed at me as if he were examining my entire existence. “Annalise, you’ve been skipping meals because you like eating that freaking mango with shrimp sauce,” he stated, but I just raised my eyebrow at him. Zeno shouldn’t interfere with what I wanted to eat because that is wh

It’s been a year since we saw each other. Part of me is still missing and waiting for him, but my eyes focus on this guy, who’s smiling at me.“Annalise, what do you want for dinner?” Ciara inquired, then entered my room.“Ramen and fried chicken will do, Ciara,” I replied without taking my attention to the guy in front of me.Ciara didn’t leave my room right away after hearing my answer and I could feel her eyes dart at me as if she was judging my entire existence. I know that she wanted to assure me, but I’m tired of waiting for nothing.If Zeno came back, I’d be happy and I would throw myself at him right away. But since this is reality, I need to focus on surviving too. I don’t want to give myself false hope, waiting for him for so long, but we’re not sure if he will come back to me, safe and sound.“Annalise, I apologize if you are suffering,” Ciara whispered, enough for me to hear what she just said.I smiled bitterly, not minding if she saw me smiling like that. Before loving Z

“Annalise, why don’t you try strolling here in Germany? I’ll accompany you,” Ciara suggested.My eyes darted to Czy right away, who was now sleeping peacefully. We’ve been here in Germany for a year, but I haven’t even wandered around here because of fear that they might see us.Although Ciara and Jake assured me that this country was safe, they advised me that one of them should accompany me, just in case.Part of me says that I need to take a breath and buy something that I want, but whenever I realize that my life is in danger, I always change my mind.I let out a deep sigh and glanced at Ciara, who was now smiling brightly as if she was assuming that I would agree.“Don’t worry about Czy. I’ll take care of him,” Jake said and popped out of nowhere. “You need to unwind, Annalise. Besides, Ciara will accompany you and I’m in charge of Czy today.”“But—”“Come on! Let’s buy some bags and dress. We can also go to the beautiful places here so I can take photos of you,” Ciara said while
