************************Hunter's POV "Why were you so nervous, did you think I was going do something as silly as kiss you?" I ask her.Her face scrunches up in distaste and if I wasn't confident of myself, my ego would have taken a strong hit. This girl really is bad for my ego; I mean girls go crazy to get a chance to be with me. Not trying to sound conceited or anything, I'm just stating facts."N-nnoo, definitely not". She stammers then hurriedly walks to her side of the tent and start unpacking absent mindedly.Ughh, I have since given up trying to understand girls and I'm not about to start again so I settle back on my bed and drop my right hand over my eyes pretending to sleep. I watch her unpack with the corner of my eyes and find myself mesmerized as she walks around her side of the tent arranging her things. I'm not blind, I've always considered Daisy pretty but right now, I find it damn near impossible to take my eyes off her. She's the most beautiful girl I've ever seen. Earlier, when she was on my bed, under me, it took all the will power I had - and it wasn't even that much to begin with - not to take her plump lips for a kiss. I'm dying to know how she tastes, would it be citrus like her scent that has been driving me crazy all day? Damn it! Why am I thinking about kissing Daisy?Clearly, it's been too long since I've gotten laid. It's been two weeks. Two whole fucking weeks! I remember the reason why I haven't had time for any girl lately and I feel like throwing a lamp against a wall. For the past two weeks, my father has been pestering me to agree to an arranged marriage deal he's negotiating with the owner of a company he wants to merge with.My father isn't a heartless business man that has no time for his children like the media portrays a lot of businessmen but when he makes a decision that he thinks will be best for his chain of companies, nothing – not even 30 angels accompanied by 50 devils - can change his mind.He tried to change my mind by saying we could eventually fall in love like he and my mother did and that we don't have to get married immediately but we have be engaged and wait till we both finish college and I take over the company before getting married.Hell no, I'm only 18. Who does that to his child? I don't even know the girl in question, probably a spoiled brat with a knack for buying out a department store every time she goes shopping. This camp was a means of escape from everything, home, responsibility and even school. I push all worries to the back of my mind and slowly drift off to sleep.It feels like I've just closed my eyes when I hear my friends' loud laughter outside the tent. "Get your ass out of that tent before I come in there and kick it for you. You've been asleep for four whole hours" Blake hollers. I groan and glare at the tent entrance, that guy couldn't be quiet even if his life depended on it.I throw on a leather pant, a white t-shirt, and my jacket and look around the tent for Daisy but she was nowhere to be found. I shrug and go out to meet my friends.I join my friends and notice Dean and Daisy afar off by the tree we sat under earlier sitting beside each other and talking. Daisy suddenly throws her head back and laughs. She never laughs like that with me, in fact I can't remember a time when she has ever smiled genuinely at me. I fight down the urge to snatch Daisy away and deck my best friend. Fuck it, what's wrong with me? Why would I ever wanna deck my best friend because of Daisy? I shake my head. I'm definitely finding a girl to be with tonight......After eating dinner, a huge camp fire was made and everybody gathered there to hang out. My friends and I had made plans to hang out in a secluded part of the camp ground so we gather there. We start chatting about nothing in particular when we hear footsteps approaching."Must be the girls" Mark says."Oh, I forgot to tell you guys, I also invited Stephanie, Tiffany, Taylor and a couple other girls to hang out with us" Daniel adds sheepishly.Taylor? Not Taylor again. I can't really tell Taylor to fuck off either because we had been friends during our childhood but when we entered high-school; the Taylor I knew vanished without a trace and became preppy Taylor with nothing in her head except air. I've hooked up with her a couple of times because damn it, I'm a guy and she's hot, but she has some sick notions about a fairy tale ending. Sometimes I wonder where the old nice and kind Taylor went.Daisy and her friends appear around the corner and I go instantly sit up straight. She was wearing a red dress that ends mid thigh, low heels and minimal make up, but stood out among her friends. She looks around us sitting in a circle around our little camp fire and when her gaze lands on Dean, she smiles and moves to sit beside him. I let out an involuntary growl and Mark who was sitting beside me gave me a 'what the hell' look. I ignore him and focus on Dean that was sitting too close to Daisy in my opinion even though they were about a lot of inches apart. Her friends sit between the other guys.Five minutes later, the other girls arrive and sit down. Taylor and Tiffany sit on both of my side. Stephanie sits beside Blake and sends Bloom - a friend of Daisy that was sitting on Blake's other side - a mean glare.The other girls – Rain, Cassie and Ruby sit between Tyler and Daniel. I snatch a beer from the corner the beer carton was stacked. Our original plan was to get wasted tonight and it seems that plan was still holding because all the guys have already consumed at least two cans of beer."Let's play spin the bottle" Daniel says."We don't have a bottle" Tyler reminds him."Truth or dare then" he tries again and We all murmur our agreement."Blake, you go first, truth or dare?" Daniel asks."Dare" Blake answers confidently. Daniel smirks mischievously"I dare you to twerk to a whole song from the beginning to the end" he says."Hell, no" Blake screeches like a girl. Daniel smirks harder making me worry for his mouth, has he never heard of face freeze?"A dare is a dare". He saysBlake sighs and stands up, he points to Daniel "give me music, asshole". Daniel obliges and plays Nicki Minaj – Anaconda, Blake begins to twerk and we all fall into fits of laughter. I take out my phone from my pocket and begin to record Blake's twerking moment ignoring the cracked screen. I need to get a new phone once I return home.This will be my blackmail ammunition against Blake for years to come.After Blake finishes twerking, we continue to play truth or dare for a while and finally, Dean's turn came. "Truth or Dare?" Mark asks Dean."Dare" He answers.Mark smirks at Dean "I dare you to kiss Daisy, tongue and all"What?Oh, Hell no.Chapter 70 Daisy's POV *3 months later* "Aww come on Daisy, I was joking, you can't seriously be mad at me for this" Hunter says and I grunt in response. "Daisy, talk to me" He says taking his eyes off the road for a few seconds to look at me. "Whatever, I don't care" I answer facing away from him and staring at my phone like there was something interesting on it. "Wait, are you jealous?" He asks grinning widely making me feel like kissing the stupid thing of his face. "Why would I be jealous of your 'new pretty personal assistant'" I respond making air quotes around 'new pretty assistant' to show I'm quoting him exactly how he said it. I had quit working for him a month ago to move to my dad's own group of hotels which he will be handing over to me when he retires. It also helps that I studied business management in college. My post back at Stone's empire has been vacant up until today when another P.A was employed by Mrs. White. We are currently on our way to a little get t
Chapter 69Hunter's POV"Don't even think of moving boy" A sadistic voice says from beside me.The person walks forward with his gun still pointing at me and I see the face responsible for ten years of misery in all of our lives: Levi."What pretty boy? Why are you glaring at me like that?" He asks with a grin and one eyebrow raised or maybe his two eyebrows but I wouldn't know since the other eye was covered with an eye patch."If it's money you want, I'll give it to you" I state my heart beating wildly at the fact that Eve still had her gun pointed at Daisy.On a closer look, I notice Daisy's chest moving up and down rapidly. The expression on her face was that of pure panic and she looked like she would pass out at any moment now.Angel, please stay with me.Levi laughs maniacally at my question before responding "Money? You think I want money? Come to think of it, maybe the reason I haven't killed my self all these years was because I knew there was a probability this bastard was
Chapter 68Hunter's POVI left Daisy at her Dad's place after talking to him for a while so that they could talk more. He was surprised we used his hair for the DNA testing instead of just asking him for his blood but I told him I didn't want to get his hopes up.Daisy said she would head to Keesha's place after leaving there so I told her I would send the driver down to her but Mr. Heart said his driver would do it.It made me happy to see how proud he was of who Daisy had grown into. Immediately after leaving there, I had called my friends and Daisy's friends to tell them about the good news. To say they were ecstatic was an understatement. They all promised to fly back as soon as they had chances to.Right now though, I'm heading to the office where Mike is waiting for me. I had thought that I would not be needing his services anymore since I found Daisy but something about seeing Eve again does not sit well with me.When Daisy passed out, I had rushed to her side and before I kne
Chapter 67Hunter's POVI stretch forth my hand to grab Daisy and pull her back to me but my heart starts beating in panic when I grab nothing but air.My eyes fly open and my suspicions are confirmed when I see no one beside me on the bed.Was it all a dream?"Oh, you're awake. I had to use the bathroom but I didn't want to wake you up" I hear her voice say and I turn to see her coming out of the bathroom making me sag in relief."What's wrong? Why do you look so shocked to see me?" She asks laughing as she puts her hair into a loose ponytail."Nothing, come here" I reply making her walk towards me.When she reaches the bedside, I pull on her hand making her fall on top of me."Where's my morning kiss?" I ask grinning up at her."No, I haven't brushed" she answers trying to wriggle out of my grip but that only makes me tighten it around her."How can you say no to such a cute face?" I say trying my best to pout."Stop, that looks so wrong on you" she says laughing and I pout harder

Chapter 65Daisy's POV"It's okay Angel, open your eyes, no one here is going to hurt you. Never again" I hear a soothing voice say and I suddenly open my eyes to see Hunter."Hunter, I'm bleeding" I say sitting up on the comfortable bed in a strange room. When I look down at my stomach though, I see no blood."What's going on?" I say holding my head to calm the pounding."Did Lily make it home safe? Wait, what happened to you? Why do you look old?" I say after looking at him more closely.He looked like someone in his late twenties.Hunter's worried gaze is the only thing I see before everything goes dark once more.*****************"She doesn't seem to remember the latter part of her life after the incident, Dr. Keller" I hear Hunter utter in a muffled voice."Let her rest some more, it'll all come back" I hear a female voice respond before I fall back into a dreamless sleep.***************For the umpteenth time, I open my eyes again and notice that it was already dark outside.
