17 3 Days Later (The Weekend)9:00 AM “Malady,” a tiny voice crossed my subliminal mind in my slumber but I tended to ignore it, calling it a fluke. “Malady please wake up, today is a hectic day,” once again that sleek tone divided my peaceful sleep with her voice and this time I replied to her with a groggy hum. She first waited for me to make movements and get off from the bed but instead of showing her any valid hopes, I further curled up in my covers and continued sleeping like a careless brat. Watching me like that, her forthcoming voice toned up slightly rude, “Please Malady, wake up or I should be calling master?” she warned me and as she mentioned that wicked man to frighten me and gladly, she did frighten me till my toe. I hastily jerked up on the bed and in the very next moment, my eyes relocated on her, finding the woman grinning faintly. When I somehow gained consciousness, I recognised it was Nancy.She kept shaking her head and stated, “I should’ve said that earlier,”
18“Lana, are you okay?” Armando rushed to me while saying this, “What did that motherfucker do to you?”Hurt me, used me, I'm ungrateful, heartbroken, damaged, suicidal “I-I’m o-okay. He attacked me but Nicolas saved me” I had too many emotions up to remain balanced, and this was the quickest lucid answer I could think of“Son of a bitch!” he blessed him with a swear I thought he had sent him to me but the moment he came in with this face of worriment debated otherwise but this could also be a play of his sick games. Living with him has taught me little smarts and his manipulative strategies so I can’t trust him on this. “Who was he?” I asked him with my doe eyes,“Will be nobody till tomorrow,” he replied. quite friendly.I sighed when I got up the signal, he was thinking about killing him and again this would be because of me, I can’t face this, ever. I thought my baby would’ve knocked some sense in him but no, not a chance. How come I forgot he was the Mafia’s heart without ownin
1924 Hours LaterBeeps of monitor knocked at my door of sleep. It was so hard to answer it but eventually, I was getting power. The clouds over my mind were getting thin and I was becoming conscious of my surroundings a little bit. My eyes were ajar. I fought the heaviness in my body. I felt like crying as I gained my mind. My body felt too weak and tired to move even a finger but I jerked my face aside. I started taking heavy breaths even though I could feel a mask on my mouth. I was getting out of hands but I don’t know why my body wanted to do this. I wanted to shout and I did. I wanted to yell, I did and I wanted to run, which I would, soon. Hands grabbed my shoulders and a voice started registering in my mind, “Calm down, little one. I said calm down.” a deep manly voice calmed me, a few seconds later I learnt it was Nicolas so, without thinking anything further, I opened my eyes to calm my racing body. He was on top of my face, I looked at him while squinting. “Thank
20“London?” I asked with the deepest frown I could form on my forehead, my hands were tightly clutched to my dress which I wasn’t wearing on the hospital bed, what had happened in the last few hours? “Yes, London,” answered casually as usual“Why!? Does my permission matter nothing? Did anybody ask me for it? No, not even informed me about this, may I kindly be enlightened, why!?” Since the day I lost my baby, I have become more infuriated. I can’t hold my aggression back after knowing what they all have done to me. I’m not a toy but I’m always treated like one, now, even if they kill me on this, I won’t be scared, I’ve already toured the death’s entrance.“Because you were meant to be here for a long time,” his statement only multiplied confusion. I kept giving him a resting bitch face look and he got my point through it, “The Nicolas you knew is gone. Meet me, Nathan. Nathaniel Williams Knightley.” calling myself shocked was an underestimation, I was above than startled. What is
21“You want to go back to those who sold you to him?” I couldn’t feel the floor under my feet, “What do you mean… what… Do you know what you just said?” my eyes were wide shocked, I wanted to punch him so bad for dragging my parents into this fuss, “YOU ARE ACCUSING MY PARENTS!” never in the world I can believe this lie, no, they love me. They can’t even think about doing this to me“I don’t want to show you proofs,” he said while adjusting one leg over other, and forming a concerned look on face“No, show me! I don’t believe you here,” I snapped at him and he gave me a worried sweetheart look with one eyebrow lifted, “You sure, I don’t want you insomniac,” he assured me and I confirmed him with my hard face. He opened his drawer and took out an opened envelope. He handed it over to me and I took no minute to take out the pictures and papers from it. My heart clenched when I saw my parents pictured as taking money from Amrando’s men while he is sitting on my favourite couch, my ey
226 Months Later“Lana! Finish your breakfast at least!” a shout of Anya echoed behind me while I was heading to the exit, “I’ve had enough, byeee!” I yelled, making sure if she could hear, “If Mr Knightley asks me about it, you’d be responsible,” I heard her threatening me but I continued to run outside. She has been our housemaid who is going home for a few days and also she has been my good companion from the past 6 months. A great person by heart.I was jogging towards the car as usual. Cody, our chauffeur drives me off to school every day, he has been doing this from the day I started schooling here. I still remember my apprehension over the first day there but Anya and Cody both helped me overcome my anxiety,I got closer to the Audi and saw Cody standing beside it. My face immediately formed a bright smile and I called out his name. He turned around and replied me back with a grin, “Our latecomer has arrived,” he added and I furrowed with a mischievous smirk, He opened the
23*Buzzer*I sighed loudly and mumbled under my breath, “Done for the day,”Judy, that clingy girl was with me till our last class, guess my bad luck was teasing me today, I kept thinking it all-day“Are you free today?” she asked me with her big doe eyes hiding behind glasses, “Umm, no idea right now but I think I’ll be staying in for some Netflix and chill,” I indirectly rejected her for whatever she was planning with me. I don’t like clingy people much, My phone buzzed and I fetched it out of my pocket, “I see you’re over with your school. Come out, I’m waiting,” Nathan texted me, successfully made my beating heart in a racing competition.I texted him back, “Coming,” with a million-dollar smile. “Yeah, buddy, gotta go,” I excused Judy where we bid goodbyes and separated our ways, “See you tomorrow,” I heard saying to me in last and I huffed after turning my face around and walking another wayI dropped the book in my locker and strode out of my school’s building. Searching for
24Armando's POV I was in my office late at night, sitting in the dull brightness which was approaching from other buildings that were making my documents visible on the desk which I was trying to read. I was busy signing some paperwork along with sipping one of my favorites. My desk was full of different kinds of bottles and rum was what I was deeply keened on. This was the only way to keep me calm otherwise I might have killed almost every scumbag that tried to talk to me. I had already killed every scumbag who betrayed me; even their families too but not one apparently; who is that shitbag, Nicolas.That motherfucker kidnapped my kitten from me and hid her far away in London, he even hired Ashlynn to kill our baby. And Of course, how could she live when she had committed such a crime? how could she live after killing my heir? She deserved everything I did to her, but her dying too early couldn't suffice the pain in my heart, First, I crushed each bone in her body, then I gave her
