"You should have known this. You have been working with me since you were seven, and yet you doubt me." He shakes his head in disappointment as he sits on the chair.

"I thought nobody knew me better than you, Christopher." He looks at me trying to read my mind. "But I guess you haven't gained your memory completely after that accident." He says with a sad expression. Oh no, not this again.

"If it's not you then who would have tried to do that?" I snap at him trying to get away from it before he starts with the whole memory loss ordeal conversation. I fucking hate it.

"How would I know? apart from that, I have more important works to do rather than going behind some random usual bitch." He tells in a bored tone.

I snap my head back at him furiously. I see all red in front of me hearing him say that. How dare he call her that? I'll fucking kill him. "Don't call her that." I spat at him. Just because he has raised me like a father and helped me get through my hard times, I am keeping

  • Chasing Poisonous   chapter 30

    When I get to the kitchen, I find it to be empty. What the fuck? Was Christopher expecting me to live here with no necessities? How am I supposed to make food? Then I remembered what Christopher said to me before going. If I need anything I can tell the guards to get it. I think of considering that option, but then I realize I am not in a mood to have a conversation with anyone and especially with Christopher's men. They kind of creep me out.So I decided to go back to my room. I know that I have a backup, I remember bringing a packet of chocolate chip cookies. I fish it out of my bag and stuff some immediately into my mouth. I moan in satisfaction as they melt in my mouth. They are so fucking tasty. After taking two more cookies, I jumped onto the bed. Basically, I can't even keep myself engaged in cooking now, so the only thing that I can do is to compensate for my lack of sleep last night. Taking a brief nap wouldn't do any harm, right? Apart from that, I don't want to stress mysel

  • Chasing Poisonous   chapter 29

    "Please Nicole, let me protect you."His words keep repeating unconsciously in my head, as I look out through the window of my temporarily new house. It sounded more like a statement than a question to me, as if he was telling me that he was going to protect me, anyway. I don't know why, but they oddly felt comforting.I can still picture the hint of hurt that appeared over his face when I held him responsible for what happened last night. I feel sad about saying those awful things to him, yet I don't regret saying them because whatever I said was true, and I meant everything about it. From the day Christopher has entered my life, nothing had been right for me. My life has changed completely with his arrival and I must include that it's not in a simple bad way, but more like a destructive way.The memories of last night begin to flash in front of me, with terrible thoughts occupying my mind. I remember how I had been attacked near the mall, and then the scene of intruder broking into

    "If you want to talk about something... I am here. Okay?" She says, crossing her arms. I nod at her, and suddenly I remember the events of last night. How Nicole was been attacked and the intruder who broke into her house. The look of horror on her face when I came back. How inconsolably she was crying, holding me. How can I let it slip from my mind? Thinking about that, I say the only thing that comes to my mind at that time. "You can't live here Nicole." I blurt out. "What do you mean I can't live here?" She stares at me with confusion. "I mean it isn't safe for you to stay here," I tell her what exactly I meant. "Where am I supposed to live then?" She arches an eyebrow at me. I am taken aback by the sudden change in her demeanor. She glares at me with irritation. What happened to her suddenly? Wasn't she saying a second ago that she was here for me? "I'll arrange a place for you. You can live there and even I will be staying with you. Whatever happened last night wouldn't rep

    Christopher "Please, don't leave." Her eyes look tired as she whispers to me. It makes me feel worse, thinking that I am the prime reason behind whatever she had experienced in the past few hours. I have never seen Nicole like this before. The Nicole in front of me has the deport of being immensely petrified, which is so unlikely of her. I never expected her to say those words to me. I have always seen her feisty and confident after I met her now. I remember the only time I saw fear in her eyes was the first time when she faced me a year ago, but even then, she didn't look this bad. I feel guilty knowing that I am the one who is responsible for this state of hers. She looks so vulnerable, lying on the bed, holding my hand. I give her a tender look as she keeps gazing at me. "I won't." A pleasing smile appears on her face hearing my words. I gently put her hand back on the bed and walk to her study table to get the chair from it. I put it near the bedside as I sit closer to her. Ta

    Christopher Hitting the ignition, I drive through the narrow road. I clutch the steering wheel with the same anger that was boiling inside me a few minutes ago. I would have killed that fucking bastard for touching Nicole. Who the fuck was he? What does he want from Nicole? From the corner of my eyes, I see Nicole staring at me sitting on the passenger seat. It seems like she intends to say something, but she doesn't take any initiative to do that. When I look at her, she diverts her attention back to the road. I don't pry her about it as I try to calm down myself. We ride back in silence. As I turn on the main road, Nicole interrupts. "Sam is calling. My friends, Samuel and Emily are waiting there. They would be worried about me." She tells, looking distraught. "We have to get back to them." I revolve around to look at her. She looks at me expectantly with her innocent eyes. I wish I could do as she wanted, but right now, I want to make sure that she is safe, and the only safe pla
