Diego's POV

“Where are the servants in this house? Get some water quickly,” Luis instructed at the top of his voice.

Why was he even worried about her? She fainted all the time like it was her signature move to escape from something. It's better he left her there by herself then when she's finally tired, she will wake up from her so-called fainting on her own.

I could still hear Luis and the servants' voices. “She has woken up sir,” one servant said. For heaven's sake, couldn't they talk in a low tone?

“Why was my study made to be so close to the stairway?” I asked myself.

I really needed fresh air from Adriana's shenanigans and the house as a whole. I went into my bedroom to get changed into more decent clothes.

As I took off my shirt, I glanced at my injury and was confused on seeing that it was changed to a new dressing.

“This is definitely not how I dressed my wound earlier,” I thought to myself. However,I wasn't in a mood to reason about such a trivial matter so I set aside the

  • Love In The Shadows    DIEGO'S TORTURE

    Diego's POV As I entered the car and shut the door, the driver started the engine and drove off. Leaning back in the seat, I opened the envelope to examine the contents of the letter.As I read further, amazement washed over me, and a smirk appeared at the side of my lips. This was precisely what I needed to know about Adriana. Now, I could tame her and bring her to her knees.I quickly speed dialed Luis’ number and waited for him to answer. “Luis, meet me at home in thirty minutes,” I told him when he answered.“Is it urgent?” he asked. I was still looking at the paper I held, a grin spreading across my face.“Just meet me at home. I'll be waiting,” I said and hung up. Then, I instructed the driver to take me home, and he immediately complied.I entered the house, leaving the entrance door wide open. Then, I saw one of the servants descending from the stairs, and I called him over.“Where is Adriana?” I asked, not knowing her whereabouts. The servant said she was in the library upst

  • Love In The Shadows    A LIFE CONTROLLED

    Adriana's POV As the crowd held it's breath, awaiting Diego's words about my identity, I found myself in the same state of anticipation. I had relinquished hope that he would claim me as his wife, yet a silver of my heart still clung to the possibility. I didn’t know why.“Enough!” Diego thundered, silencing the room. The murmurs seized instantly.Instead of offering any explanation, Diego began to take me out. It was unexpected and I didn't resist. I simply allowed him to lead me. Camilia followed, and once we were outside, she reached for my hand, halting my steps.“Why didn't you tell them who she is to you?” Camilia demanded, her voice laced with anger. I glanced at Diego whose mood was darkening. Quickly, I intervened to silence Camilia.“Get in the car now!” Diego commanded as the driver opened the back door. I immediately pulled my hand from Diego's grasp, now that he wasn't holding me tightly.I couldn't enter the car. I had already arranged for Camilia to take me to see my f

  • Love In The Shadows    AN UNEXPECTED RESCUE

    Adriana's POV After Camilia left to meet her friends, I decided it was time to have fun and ease my worries.I pushed further into the crowd, sliding through the throngs of people as the atmosphere buzzed with excitement. As I searched for a place to grab a drink, I stumbled upon a couple dancing, causing me to bump into a lady beside me and spill her drink.“Sorry about that!” I started to apologise, but when she lifted her head to confront me, I was left speechless.“Mariana!” I exclaimed. Running into her again was the last thing I wanted. She glared at me, her eyes filled with malice.“We meet again, house maid,” she sneered, still fixing her piercing gaze on me.“Housemaid?” I echoed, offended by her words. “I have a name, and it's Adriana Cruz,” I shot back, determination rising within me.This time, I refused to let her get under my skin. As I turned to Mariana seized my wrist, prompting me to pivot back, irritation boiling inside me.“Your wrist is almost healed—good for you.

  • Love In The Shadows    THE PARTY

    Diego's POV Seconds after the shot was fired, the assistant fell to the ground, blood rushing from his chest. I looked up to see Luis, standing there and holding out his gun.“Why can't you be careful?” he asked, sighing in relief.I smiled. “Because you've got my back. And you know I don't play it safe,” I said, coming closer to him.“Let's go,” I said, handing him the gun I held. As we went downstairs, heading towards the gate, lifeless bodies of Navarro men were on the ground. The guards were also lying lifeless on the ground.I grinned and looked at Luis. “Did you do this?” I asked, amazed by what I saw. He smiled and continued walking.“Like you said, I always have your back. I couldn't let them get to you,” he explained and entered the car. I got in and the driver drove off.“So, have you made up your mind, Diego?” Luis asked when we were seated in the car.I leaned back on the car's seat, going through my phone. “About what?” I inquired, seeking clarification. He also leaned b

  • Love In The Shadows    THE CASTILLO WAY

    Mr Antonio's POVHis voice echoed off the walls in my room and his breathing was rapid.“Didn't I tell you to kill him sooner? Why didn't you do as I said?” Delgado barked. It was early in the morning and this noise was the first thing I had received.Sitting on a chair by the window in my bedroom, I drank my coffee, trying not to listen to his nonsense.“What do you expect me to do now that the plan is ruined?” he roared. He stood across from me, lashing out his anger.“Aren't you the one I'm talking to?” he asked. I looked at him, a serious look on my face.“You should just be glad that you were not caught and stop with your shenanigans,” I calmly said. I was about to take another sip of my coffee when Delgado approached me, forcefully snatching the cup out of my hand.With steams still coming out of the coffee, it splashed on my hand, causing the hotness to sting me. Instantly, I stood up and struck my hand right on his face, making the cup he held fall to the ground.“The fuck, da

  • Love In The Shadows    SNEAKING OUT OF THE HOUSE

    Adriana's POV After hanging up on Camilia, I dropped my phone on the bed and just sat there trying to relieve myself. My father had finally been found and I couldn't even see him. I couldn't confront Diego about it either.Unable to do anything, I laid on the bed, trying not to cry once more. Just then, someone knocked loudly on my door.“Mrs Adriana, are you in?” the calm voice asked. “It's Luis speaking,” Luis? “But why was he here to see me,” I wondered. I hoped it certainly had nothing to do with Diego.Before he could knock again, I came down from the bed and went to open the door. He asked if he may come in and I agreed to let him in. As he entered, he sat down on a sofa beside my cabinet and I settled on the bed, across from him. “How are you doing, Mrs?” he asked, a concerned look on his face . At least he wasn't like Diego who didn't have any feelings.I told him I was doing fine and he smiled. Then he asked how my dad was doing.“He's doing alright,” I replied, my mood sud
