SELENA'S POV   "Are you okay, Selena?"   I nod at her, "Yes... I'm just thinking, what did we forget to put in our cart."   "Ahh, wait. Ahm we already have..."   I looked again at the door where Haxilla left with that old woman. Before, I already noticed something strange about their moves, especially to Haxilla, she's the most suspicious one. Ignoring it is the only thing that came to my mind that time, because I always think that I'm just overt thinking things.   But, the thing that made me so confused is Raven's mother. We all thought—or I'm just the only one—that her biological mother was already dead. Base on their actions earlier, it seems that they are already living to each other for a long time already, but what is their reason from keeping it to us? To me?   If there's a truth that they are keeping away from me, why? What's their reason? Did they hi

SELENA'S POV   Only the two of us stood beneath the frigid sky on a snowy December night.   He grabs my hands and pulls me in closer. His eyes, like mine, are full of bliss, which I believed could only happen in movies. The butterflies in my stomach began to tickle my entire body.   For me, it's a lovely night, and I'm feeling like a princess.   He's speaking with his heart rather than his words when he says, "Thank you for coming into my life, Selena."   My shaking hands smiled at him as they touched his face.   "Thank you for always making my heart warm, even when the weather was so chilly."   My eyes immediately closed to his lips' every contact on mine, it was so lovely and pure, as he pushed me closer and grabbed my lips.   I felt a searing stab in my back, and my eyes were shaking as I stared at him in shock tha

JAXON'S POV   "Oh, you're his secretary?" Mom asked Selena, she just nods. She doesn't seem comfortable around my parents.   "Maxine is better and prettier than you, but what can we do? Our son chose you."   "Mom!" I yelled at her. She just shrugged while munching her food, Maxine is already like her daughter that's why she's like this, but it's too much. I introduced Selena to them, not to insult her.   Selena hold pats my thighs under the table, "I know, many people already said that. But, Maxine and I are totally different, we have different personality and life. So please, stop connecting my name to hers."   It's obvious on her voice that she is hurt, but she still managed to smile. Mom ignored her like she didn't hear anything, I hate her for being like this.   Dad cleared his throat, "I heard that the company win the last bidding because of you?" he loo

SELENA'S POV   "Where's Jaxon Silvenia? T-the victim... of a car accident?" I asked the nurses. My whole body is trembling of fear that he might not be able to make it.   "He's in room 526. Second floor, left wing."   We run to the room that nurse pointed, "Jaxon..." I whispered as I opened the door, he is lying down with a bandage on his head.   I walked slowly, closer to him. My tears can't stop from falling because relief and nervousness, this kind of situation never pass on my mind before, I'm not mentally prepared for this.   "Jax... you need to wake up, huh? You need to wake up," I cried on his hand. Britanny rubbed my back to comfort me, we almost got also in an accident while driving to here.   "Jaxon?! Oh my God! My son!" Aunt Seriana suddenly pushed me away from his son, Uncle Lerion catched me and assisted me to stand up.   Bri

By the way, did my parents visited me even once while I'm asleep?" "Hm, we fought that time, after that they didn't visit you again. I'm sorry," I said while staring at my hands. He holds it and rubbed his thumb on it. "That's fine, I didn't want to see them either," he smiled, but I can see the sadness in his eyes. If I controlled myself that time

I also need this for our own business, remember?" he moved closer and kissed my forehead, "Just trust me, everything will be fine." I nod, "Hmm, take care there, okay? Don't be so close to Maxine, if you do, you won't see me again." He laughed and mess my hair, "Silly, you're the only girl who owns my heart." "Err, gross. Finish that up," I said and stood up to help him because he will be late at his flight. "Selena?" he addressed. "Hmm?" "Where have you gone this past few weeks?

SELENA'S POV   "W-who are they?" I asked when we saw a two corpse in the lab. My heart beat raced and hoping that they are not my parents, maybe, these two are just an employee here before.   "I don't know... oh, it really stinks." Jacob covered his nose and walked away from the bodies.   My heart can't stop on thumping while I'm walking closer to the bodies, it felt really different. You know that feeling that you found the thing you're looking for a long time, I don't want this feeling, like it saying that they are really my parents.   "W-we can know who they are by DNA, right?"   He shook his head, "We can, but someone will be here any hour from now."   My frows burrowed, "Someone knows this place, I mean, what's inside this house?"   "Hmm," he nods, "Someone that you can't see each other."   "Why?" I asked, but he

SELENA'S POV "The bodies here are obviously left for about more than five years, how did you found this place?" the investigator asked.   After what we saw yesterday, I decided to do a DNA test to know if they're my parents. Jacob is against this idea, but I badly want to know if my parents are really alive or not.   "When I'm taking a tour around this house to buy it, I heard a weird noise here, that's why I found this place." My lips automatically closed after I said a lie to them. They must not know that I'm here for other reason, they may suspect me by killing these persons.   He nods, "This house is familiar to me... where did I see this house? Ah, this is the house of Kristopher Silvenia," he said while roaming the whole place using his eyes.   "How did you know?"   "Hmm?" he looked at me and smiled, "Kristopher Silvenia is so intelligent to invent Gorsthia that hel
