Lucille's POV

I flipped the paper, but aside from the picture of my wedding ring and an indication for testing, there was nothing more on it.

I searched through the files and found where the paper had fallen from. In it were numerous pictures and lab tests.

I wasn't sure if I was overthinking, but even though they were the same, I couldn't help but feel it was different… in some tiny way.

I flipped to the last page. “Aconite-G,” I muttered, running my finger through the word.

    Lucille’s POVRelief flashed on King’s face as he walked into the ward, shutting the door behind him. “What are you doing here?” Benjamin asked, hostility in his tone.King ignored him walking to me. Benjamin stepped in front of him. “This is my wife. You do not walk in here without my permission. Get out,” he gesutured for the door.King tried to walk past him but Benjamin kept his hand out. “Ben,” I called.“Yes, honey,” he replied with his eyes glued to King.“Let me speak with him,” I said.“I don’t trust him, honey. He is intentionally trying to get close to you. He is wrong.”“I’ll be careful. Just let me talk to him alone,” I said.He snapped his head around. “You’re going to stay alone with him?” he asked.“I’ll be fine. And I have the call button,” I said, grabbing the little remote on the bedside table.He took my hand. “Are you sure?

    Lucille’s POVMy head hurts.I felt tired. I shook my head, trying to come to. Then I smelt it —fire, smoke. I sluggishly opened my eyes. My vision was still unclear. I coughed, the smoke sipping into my lungs.I darted my eyes around. The smoke had engulfed the space. I tried to move but couldn’t. I was tied up. Strapped on a pillar. The fire only increased. “Help!” I screamed.I coughed, the air unbearable. “Help me!” I screamed once more.I choked once I tried again. I couldn’t breathe and still felt tired. My eyelids felt tired. My body felt foreign. “They drugged me,” I thought to myself.It hasn’t worn off. They were trying to kill me!I panicked, stuggling with the ropes that kept me bound to the pillar. The rough edges of the ropes, pricked my skin but weren’t enough to keep me awake. My eyelids kept getting heavier.“Lucille!” I snapped my head to t

    King’s POV“Quite a show you have brought to me,” she said with a smile. “But you should know I have nothing to do with her abduction.”“Do you take me for a fool? Who else if not you would touch her?” I asked.“You should cover all grounds instead of being here, threatening me. Because like I said, I do not have her.”“So I should believe you’ve had a change of heart?”“A change of heart, no but she is useless to me. Especially right now. I heard she had decided to return to her husband. Never thought you’d be rejected so blatantly. I rather you live with that knowledge,” she said.“Search,” I ordered.Gary and a few others moved. I couldn’t trust her words. Who else would want to hurt her especially in that manner? They returned a few minutes later. Gary whispered in my ears and my frown only deepened.“You can’t protect her from everyone who would want to get to you. If

    King’s POVI should have gone after her. Stopped her. Tell her the fucking truth but wouldn’t that just upset her even more?I took a seat, filling my glass with wine. “Boss,” Gary stepped into the room. He handed me a new pack of cigar. “The batch has arrived,” he said.I hummed, then lit up a cigar. Gary stared longer than I wanted him to. “Do you have anything to say?” I asked.“Permit me,” he said.“I am not giving up on Lucille,” I said.He wore a look that told me all I needed to know. I knew what he was worried about but I wasn’t. My phone lit up with Lucille’s name flashing on the screen. I picked it up to a panicked voice.“K-king?!”“Lucille!” I got off the chair. “What’s wrong?”“I- The brakes, it’s not working,” her voice shook.“Where are you?!” I asked, sending a signal to Gary to find her.He rushed out almost i

    Lucille’s POVI closed the zip of my dress, staring at the mirror in front of me. I tilted my head to the side. Benjamin was sprawled up on my bed, sleeping.My heels clicked quietly as I walked closer to him. I stared down at him. His sleeping figure was calm. A complete contrast to how much we've gone head to head with each other in the past months.I heaved a sigh, grabbing my purse and headed out. A part of me wanted to stay home but I willed myself not to. I promised King I'll join him for the party and I had to do that.I left the house, driving down to King’s bar. I stepped into his private lounge but he wasn't there. I turned to Gary who brought me in and he didn't bother saying anything as he shut the door, leaving.I sent a text to King but I got no response. I waited a couple more minutes before stepping out of the room. I walked deeper into the bar and noticed Gary walking out of a room

    Lucille’s POVThe car stopped before our apartment building but no one stepped out of the car. King had driven us in silence and I wanted to keep it that way, ignoring it like it didn’t matter and I was exhausted but the longer I saw that look in his eyes, it made me feel uneasy.“You never told me what you spoke about with Ben,” I said.“Affectionate, I see,” he said.“That’s not… you’re not going to tell me?” I asked. “We haven’t known each other for a long time but I know that you’ve never looked like that.”“Like what?”“Upset. What could Benjamin had told you?”King stared at me, long, hard. I tried to understand what that look meant but I came up with nothing. “You should get some rest,” he said.I pushed the door open and just as I was about to step out, he spoke again. “Accompany me to a party tomorrow,” he said. “Not work related.”I wanted to say no

He raised his eyes to meet mine and I swallowed.“What is going on in that mind of yours?” he asked.I swear I couldn’t think. I took note of his cologne mixed with the disinfect

    Lucille's POV “What are you doing here?” I asked Gary.He looked taller and broader than he had back at the club. It could be because of the dim lights of the club or the fact he had a gun pointed at me less than five minutes of me being in the club. All that didn't matter now. What mattered was
