Romans de Mina Sardon

Miriam’s POVI stared at the man who had just shot the thugs. He was completely unfamiliar and he was breathing really hard. My heart was pounding dangerously in my chest as I waited for his next move.“Well, what the hell are you waiting for, woman? I just saved your life! Run! Get the hell out of here!’My brain quickly registered what was happening and I realized that he was trying to help me. I pushed myself forward into the dark night and started running away. I didn’t want to look back but I hadn't gotten very far when I heard some gunshots. Kyle and the rest must have discovered what happened because they were yelling and shooting like crazy.I made sure to keep going and in no time, I had put a significant amount of space between me and them that I could barely hear their voices anymore. I was so scared and my legs were weak from all of the running. My head ached from the stress of the day’s events and I didn't know when I collapsed on the ground in exhaustion.I didn’t know h

Miriam’s POVThe man named Delvano had separated from us along the way, so the person following us had the wrong lead. More gunshots were fired as our vehicle sped dangerously across the highway.“How did he know where we were?” Someone yelled from the front of the truck as I shivered in the back. The car slowed to a stop by a deserted construction site. We had lost the man chasing us but I had a feeling he was very close.“He is tracking us, somehow. He has to be.”All their eyes turned to me and one of them grabbed me by the neck and tore the duct tape off my mouth. I whimpered in pain but they ignored me.“Show me the tracking device or I swear I'll kill you right here, right now. I don’t care what my boss says.”“I don’t know what you’re talking about. Please,” I begged.“Take off her jewelry!” A dark voice ordered.My earrings, necklace, bracelet and even my ring was stripped off. I watched as they dissected everything, my heart pounding in my chest. One of them got down from the

Lazar’s POVI was able to jump out of the way just in time to avoid the bags of stone that came crashing down from a high crate. I fell on my side and didn’t realize how much damage it would cause until I tried to stand up. “Shit!” I groaned out loud.The pain was nothing compared to the rage and hatred I was feeling towards Trevor right now. If I reached him, the first thing I was going to do was smash his fucking face in. The bastard thought he was so smart. I pulled myself up to stand and I managed to stagger over to where my car was parked.As I was getting ready to drive, a call came in and I knew who it was even without checking.“Please, tell me you have good news.”“I do but you have to hurry up. Time is of essence,” Rosodov replied.I didn’t need to be told twice. Ignoring the pain in my leg, I stepped on the pedal and sped towards the headquarters.“What happened to you? Are you alright?” Those were the questions I was being met with as I marched through the room.I needed

Lazar’s POVWhen I left the house earlier tonight, I couldn’t help but get the feeling of being followed. After a while, though, it stopped. I couldn’t be focused on an imaginary stalker because a lot was happening tonight. Word had finally gotten to Trevor that I had Anita. I heard that he was outraged and wanted her immediately.It didn’t take long for him to call. I made him call up to three times before picking up. “You coward! How dare you take her?” He yelled on the phone. “After everything you’ve taken?”How bold of him to forget that he wasn’t the only one who lost to this ongoing battle. He started this thing and I was going to finish it.“Oh. You haven’t seen anything. Just sit back, relax and watch me show you why you should never mess with me or mine!”“You’re going to regret this, you bastard! Mark my words. You will wish you never crossed me.”“Empty threats, just as usual. You need to start thinking of new ways to threaten me because I’m bored already.”He ended the ca

Miriam’s POVI hadn’t gotten very far when the car hit a bump on the road. I was confused because I could have sworn that I didn’t see anything on the road.“What the hell?” I cursed before coming down to check what the problem was.Just as I got down from the vehicle, I heard a loud screech. I looked up to see two vehicles pulling up in front of me. My heart started to hammer at the thought of what was happening. I watched as the men came down from their trucks.“Who are you?” One of them fired at me..“I…I’m…” I stammered in fear.“Speak, woman!”“My name is Juliet,” I lied.“Juliet what?”“Juliet Stone.”I had to lie. I didn’t know what type of men they were or why they were stopping me. I tried to check if I would still see Lazar’s car but it wasn’t in sight anymore. Shit! I was all on my own now.“You’re lying!” One of them said suddenly. He seemed to be the leader of the group. He was dressed in all silver which was weird to me but that was the least of my problems right now. He

Miriam’s POVMy routine for the next couple of days waa simple. Wake up, get ready for work, have Lazar drive me to the office. After work, he picks me up. On the days that I had Jiu Jitsu, he would take me by himself and wait till I was done. The other days, we would drive straight home, have dinner and call it a night.Of course, not all days where the same. Some things changed. Lazar usually had sudden work emergencies that would spring up at the most random times. “I’m sorry, my angel. I have to attend to this urgently. I will be back soon,” he would say.He would kiss me and leave the house before I could ask him what he was up to.“I’m fed up, I won’t lie. This isn’t what I imagined marriage life to be life. There’s too much secrecy,” I complained to Sara.We were at her apartment, having tea. I needed a break from my boring and rather pretentious routine. I also really needed someone to vent to.“I know but you’re not perfect either. It’s not like you don’t have a secret or tw
