BOUND TO KILL, BOUND TO LOVE CHAPTER 45
Jonathan After an eternity of going back and forth with my contractors, I was able to come to an agreement and the deal was sealed. Feeling relieved, I got into my car and drove straight home. For some odd reason, I just had this unsettling feeling in my chest. But I brushed it off, replacing it with the pending collaboration I’m yet to sign. The CEO of the company has me on a chokehold with his really interesting business idea. I can’t shake off the idea of being a part of such a great project. But at the same time, there’s this little voice asking me not to rush in for now. In my experience, it’s better to listen to that little voice than the louder one. As I pulled over in my garage, I noticed a car was missing. The only other person who drove that car was Mia. “Where’d she go?” I muttered under my breath as I locked my car and strolled into the main house. Everywhere was weirdly quiet, except the low humming of the ac. Even the staff had retired for the night already. I was

MiaWhile others woke up beside the love of their lives, I woke up to a throbbing headache and nausea. My head spun around in scattered circles as I tried to keep my eyes open but not only did it make my stomach churn, the heavy throbs in my head persisted even more. My door creaked open without a prior knock but I couldn’t lift my eyes to see who it was. “Ma’am… you’re awake already.” I knew that voice. It was Lydia. “Please whatever it is you came for, if it’s not going to be a remedy to my problem right now I’d rather you not bother me with it..” I nagged as my face dug deeper into my sheets. I heard the clatter of cups and her footsteps approached my bed. “Mr. Jonathan actually asked me to hand you this..” Lydia responded, holding out a card of pills. “They’re pills for your hangover. He believes you’re going to have a terrible headache because of how much alcohol you consumed last night..” I managed to lift my head fully Lydia placed the glass of water in my other hand. “

Jonathan The evening stretched into the darkness of the night and as the party progressed, I sat back in my chair, still trying to gather my thoughts. Mia on the other hand was having a thrill. She blended so well with the other guests and each time my eyes found her, she had a different champagne flute in her hand. Leaning back on my chair, I watched her from a distance, my wine glass barely touched on the table. She looked so harmless…. So naive and oblivious of the things around her. But that’s what I used to think. Now after seeing that gun in her possession and the many things about her that just didn’t add up, my perception of her has changed. On the seat she was once sitting on, her purse buzzed and drew my attention to it. I stared at the black purse and waited for the sound again. It came a few seconds later and this time, it lasted longer than the previous one. I took a sip of my drink and leaned over to pick the purse up. The phone inside chimed nonstop and curiosity

Jonathan I returned to my room, sank into my chair and pulled open my laptop. No matter how much I tried to convince myself that the man I saw Mia with that night didn’t matter, I just could shake off the thought of someone else ruining something I’ve built just because my supposed wife can’t control herself. My fingers typed fast and my eyes scanned the screen, I dug deeper into Mia’s life to see the friends she had, maybe I would somehow stumble on something interesting. But as I scrolled further down, I noticed something wasn’t adding up about her life. She had no social media life beyond the start of this year. Everything about her only started early this year, as though she had no life before then. “Maybe her sisters might be of good use..” I muttered in a low voice as I jumped over to the older one’s account. But nothing changed here. Martha only started posting about her this year alone, same thing with Clara. I slowly sat up on my chair, my fingers caressing my chin as I

Mia“Aren’t you supposed to be at work today?” I muttered, mouth half full with food. “It’s my company, I choose when to be there and when not to be. Besides, everyone and their grandma can see that it’s clearly going to rain cats and dogs today. I’m not in the mood to drive through a storm..” he shot back, rubbing his temple slightly. “In my defense, I haven’t checked the weather forecast for today and I certainly haven’t looked outside my window..” I nagged as I wiped the corners of my mouth with a paper towel. “How’s the new contract..” I asked shortly after pushing my empty plate further away. Jonathan glanced at me through the corner of his eyes, probably wondering why I changed the topic from what he asked me. He inhaled slowly and let the air go through his mouth, folding his arms around his knees. “Well, it’s going alright. There’s more progress than the board thought there’d be..” he replied, a proud smirk sitting on the edge of his lips. “Good to know. It was my idea t

MiaAs the sun woke up, I tossed around on the bed and pulled my sheets over my face. But something unfamiliar hit me. These sheets smelled nothing like mine, and they felt even thicker. I slowly opened my eyes and the expensive oak wood greeted me. My brain jolted awake fully as I looked around, sitting up on the bed to make sure I wasn’t just imagining things. “What am I doing in Jonathan’s room?” I muttered to myself. Then I realized I was naked… not even a single piece of clothing was on my body!I picked up my pillow and screamed into it as loudly as possible because everything that happened last night flooded back into my head. I still felt Jonathan’s arms around me, as though I were still basking in his warmth. The room was empty and I took the opportunity to jump down from the bed to grab my robe. “Where did I toss it?” I muttered to myself. I searched around, cold morning air grazing my bare body but my robe was nowhere in sight. I heard footsteps approaching and immedia
