Clay thought that must have been a case of mistaken Identity. “Are you sure it was you they had asked him to give the note and not me?”. Mary nodded, getting a bit confused. She was very certain that the note was meant for her, after all she was the one who was planning to expose Adonis hidden secret. “Do you have any enemies? I mean, did you have a fight with anyone that would want to hurt you?” Mary shook her head, it was not a complete lie anyways, after all she did have any enemies anyways, and she did not have any fight with anybody either. “You know what Mary? You would try to stay back at home for a while, until we figure out what to do” his voice sounded shacky. Mary had a feeling that her brother was hiding something since he was acting so suspicious, but she had no idea what it was. She wondered what it could be that he was hiding from her. He made to go inside then he came back again. “And please, we have to keep this from mum and dad, we do not want to have them

Mary paused at the door, her beating severely to the point that it almost became painful. She did not know if to concentrate on the deep blue eyes that was now piercing through her with it’s gaze, holding her hostage that she could not even look away, or if she should concentrate on her heart which seemed to plan to rebel against her entire body. It seemed to be working independently, on it’s own accord. Neither did she know if she should concentrate on her fears, her fears that seemed to be growing with every passing second. There he was, the supposed dangerous murderer, dangerous but ruthlessly handsome as well. His beautiful looks made her find it difficult to connect him to the supposed murder. With the way he stared at her, the first thought that registered in her head was to turn around and run away, far away from him and back home into her mother’s arms where she would be save from any danger. But she could not move, his eyes seemed to have glued her to the spot she stood

Mary stood up and ran into the bathroom because if she had stayed, she would have given into the most lustful desires of the innermost part of her heart. And she did not want that, not with someone like Adonis. A cold blooded murderer who would not hesitate to kill her if he sees the need. Mary wrapped her arms around her body and sat on the toilet seat, trying to calm her fast breaths, and to quench the fire that had been ignites inside of her by Adonis kisses and touches. She stayed there for a few minutes, expecting to hear him knock on the door. She was already cooking up excuses to give when he does, but he did not. By the time she summoned courage and left the bathroom he was gone although his scent still hovered around her room, it was almost like he was still there. She could still feel the tingling feeling on her skin where he had touched her, she still felt hot from the assault his merciless fingers had meted out on her innocent body. Mary sat on the bed, her hand protect

Mary’s heart started to beat fast again when he turned around to look at her. “You are still home?” She asked even though it was quite obvious that he was probably not going anywhere that day since he was not yet dressed for work at that time. “Shouldn’t you be happy to see me at home?” He asked with a smirk. Mary rolled her eyes at him again. He was being arrogant again. “How has it been going with Emma?” He asked taking a sip from the glass of water he held in his hand. “Good” she replied. “At least we’ve not encountered any mood swings in a long while” she said laughing. “I’m glad you are getting along” he suddenly looked serious. She nodded and in order to get rid of the awkwardness, she asked if he was not going to work, and why he was not dressed. He told her he was working from home that day, and also informed her that they would be going grocery shopping later in the day since the house was out of stock. Mary was actually looking forward to going shopping with

Mary wondered who was so important that he was texting in his phone that he could not even spare a second from his phone to even look at her. She felt annoyed, it could be one of his numerous women. She stood there for some time, watching him and hoping that he would at least look at her. But he seemed to not even care about her presence there. She shut the fridge with a loud bang after taking her water, then she angrily walked away while dragging her feet along with her. Mary had no idea why she was angry, whether it was because Adonis trie to kill her, or if it was because he ignored her abd focused on his phone, or if it was because she felt he was texting other women or if it was his hypocrisy. "Whatever" Mary exclaimed when she got to her room. "I had better stop thinking about him". After he was a bloody murderer and had even tried to kill her few hours ago, she was very sure he must be disappointed, and even more than that she was very scared as well, what if he tried to
