Chapter twenty eight
Ava glanced away from him, his question hit her bad, why does she care? He was right, for a man that kidnapped her and ready to deliver her to some guy, kissing her and threatening to kill her is a small thing for him to accomplish, so why was she hurt by it? Why does her heart feel sour? Why does she feel like this?
“You know,” Antonio began, sitting beside her on the fountain, “a man like him can do anything he wants without a care in the world,” he chuckled, “but he is not the kind of man to just worry for no reason. True he has trust issues, Anthony have pledge his loyalty to him for three years now but he still doesn’t trust him, so in your case, he kissed you, you said, and then he threatened to kill you, it’s the same thing. The same trust issues.”
“He doesn’t trust me?” She asked and then sighed, “well, I was not expecting him to trust me anyway, I don’t even trust him.”

Ava sat in the restaurant of the hotel waiting for her meal like she always does for the past one week. Although she didn’t want to think about it, but she does know that Lucian had changed since the night of the party. He doesn’t lock her in the room anymore, and he casually lets her walk around the hotel while he goes around doing his business. He was gone most of the nights and some he returns bloody, but in as much as the sight affects her, she didn’t question him and sometimes helps him in cleaning up.The most surprising thing was how he lets her do whatever she wants, and he hasn’t said no to anything she requested for anymore. It was scary but she scares herself the most by loving it. She couldn’t explain the joy that always flushes through her when the hotel staff addresses her as Mrs. Snell. One night she had talked to Lucian about it but excluding the happiness she feels part and he had asked her if she wants to change the name, she st

Lucian stiffened when he heard the gunshot, he pushed Ava away softly and looked deeply into her eyes, seeing the tears there, his heart wavered. His fingers on her shoulders tightened as he glanced down at the gun in her hand and then at his stomach. And that was when he felt it: nothing. No pain, no blood stain, nothing and then he heard a body slumping on the ground and turned to see the man who still had shock written all over his face as he took his final breath.He was surprised seeing the man, when he had entered the room, all his attention had been on her, he didn’t sense the man, never occurred to him that someone else was in the room with her, a detail he never misses before and then he realized, if Ava had not shot the man, he would have been dead because he was totally relaxed that she was alone and there was no attacker. It was also the reason he had thought he was the one she shot, only for him to discover that it was actually her father’s man. From

Ava opened her eyes to the bright light shining on her face, she closed her eyes immediately and blocked the light with her hand. When she was sure her eyes has adapted to the light, she put down her hand and sat up on the bed. She looked around and the whole of the room was white, the walls, the drapes and the sheets of the bed. She frowned, how did I get here? She wondered, rubbing her temple to recall her memories and that was when it hit her. She had screamed at Lucian that she loved him and he had kissed her and they had made sweet love.The sudden realization sent a wave of shiver through her and she immediately grasped on to the sheet and pulling it up her chest. Her mind was dominated by the memories of what happened and a shy smile graced her lips that she shut her eyes in pure bliss. Then something else hit her, they were in the jet last night, how did she get her, this was definitely not the jet private bedroom. She climbed out of the bed, noting that she

It’s been five days since the return from Mexico, Ava had thought and believed that Lucian would come around along the way. After all, he was as cold as that when they first met, so no doubt when his demons or whatever troubling him has finally left him, he would come around and would even apologize for what he said to her.But to her surprise, rather than come around, he was drifting further away. He leaves in the morning to return late at night, sometimes covered in blood from head to toe. She knew he has been killing but what she doesn’t understand was why it seems intense now like killing is the only thing he knows how to do. So many times she had tried to strike up a conversation but he either replies with his one words response or he totally ignores her.Yesterday, he had return a bit drunk and she had seen a lipstick stain on his cheek, she had been overwhelmed with jealousy and pain but they was nothing she could do, she didn’t even ask him wh

A black BMW stopped in front of them and a man came down from the passenger’s side and opened the back door, a foot first stepped out followed by a man dressed in a black suit with long coat and a black hat, he had a cigar in his mouth and his brown eyes went to Ava and he smiled, reaching up to get the cigar out of his mouth, “hello dear, Ava, we meet again.” Ava stared in hatred at the man, how could she forget him, the man who had tried to take her innocence away when she was just fifteen? She shivered and hid behind Antonio who was strategizing in his mind how he can get her out of there against all odds. “You don’t think you can hide from me forever, do you my darling?” he asked and then one of the men walked up to him and whispered something in his ear. All smiles in his eyes vanished immediately and he turned to his men, “get her and kill him,” and he got into his car again. The men corked their guns and fired but before that, a teargas was thrown in their mid

Ava had ran into her room after watching him leave with no care in the world, she had cried out her heart that she didn’t even know when she fell asleep. In her sleep, she could not get over the fact that someone was watching her but she soon lost feeling of it when she saw herself being pushed into a dark room. She turned back immediately and saw Lucian shutting the door on her face. She was scared and terrified that she started banging on the door, begging him to please get her out, to please not leave her but he had ignored her and only smiled sinisterly at her before walking away, waving goodbye to her. A loud cackle behind her told her she wasn’t alone and she turned sharply, the once dark room wasn’t so dark anymore and in the center was him, the one man she can never forget his face despite how hard she tried. He smiled and removed his cigar from his mouth as he was so found of doing, his eyes running over her body lustfully and it was then she took a good look at her

The room was bright and the woman in the bed furrowed her eyebrows. Reaching up, she intended to block the light with her hand but it was of no use, then yawning, she opened her eyes and stared straight at the ceiling. Little by little, events of last night flooded her mind. Starting by her bad dream and the man that comforted her and what happened between them after.On normal occasion, she should have been happy, toss and turn in the bed due to shyness, stand up and jump on the bed or possibly twirl around in circle on the floor, but she did none of those. Rather she was angry at herself for being so cheap, how could she have let him have his way with her last night? How could she have surrendered to him despite knowing it would mean nothing to him and he would see her as nothing but a whore? How could she have let down her self respect for him just like that?And then it dawned on her, she didn’t surrender to him, she had been lost and in pain and fear of her
