Claudia Woods’ Point of View There was a huge grin on my face the moment I woke up. Sticking with Zamir for a couple of days from the moment he was shot became a huge way for us to know each other. Apparently, he is not just a short-tempered and hot-headed type of person. He is also stubborn and I wonder if everyone already saw this side of him. Well, I find him funny, annoying as my patient and cute. “Had a good sleep?” Saint inquired with a huge teasing grin as Zamir and I entered the room together. “I should be the one asking that. How’s the first night with your woman though?” I retorted back with a wide grin. Saint arched his one eyebrow before Zamir pulled me beside him. “Don’t start a fight with him…” he murmured. “What? I’m not doing anything!” Saint is an asshole. He is far from Lorenzo and teasing me, making my blood boil, annoying the shit out of me without a reason are his habit. Well, Lorenzo and I could get along but I couldn’t see Saint and I being on good terms.
Claudia Woods’ Point of View She was pretty. The moment she opened her eyes, I could see the fear in it but I never said anything or did something that could upset her. Instead, I began to smile and converse with her with so much care and gentleness. "Do you take medicine as well?" I inquired, seeing that the shirt she was wearing was the name of a university hospital. "H-How did you know?" I chuckled and then spoke. "It's in your shirt. I study medicine too but I have to stop. Though, I have quite a bit of knowledge when it comes to it. Would you permit me to check and touch you?" Her name was written on the shirt as well. Amelia Lacroix. Nice name. I wonder what year is she? She seemed like a woman my age. She's pretty, and the scars didn't become a hindrance to see the full view of her beauty. By the time that I had the chance to treat her, it was when questions flooded into my mind. “Do you know Saint? Is he annoying you too?” I inquired with a gentle voice. “Is he doing t
Claudia Woods’ Point of View There was nothing but an annoyed feeling that was consuming my entire system. I can’t function, feeling worried at the woman in front of me. Upon the first three days staying here, I can’t help not to get irritated by how she treats Lisa and the other maids as if she was the boss here. My forehead creased when she went to where Zamir again, caressing his hands whilst slowly talking with him. She said she wanted a quiet life that’s why she ran here, but I honestly doubt her petty reason. God knows how much I wanted to grab Zamir out of her hand, but when he said that she’s just a friend and nothing else more than that, I know Zamir is telling me the truth. I have to put my trust in him and communicate if something goes wrong. Well, that’s the least I can do for now. “Can I borrow your phone, Lisa? I’ll just have to search for something. It will be quick,” I said while she was busy baking. She was not looking but responded. “It’s beside the vase, Miss.
Claudia Woods’ Point of View There was a hard stone stuck in my mouth. I knew it, something happened between them in the past that’s why Zamir didn’t get angry when Danica kissed him on the cheeks. The fact that Zamir allows Danica to touch him adds fuel to the fire. He said they were just friends… and now that I found out a deeper meaning between them, I felt like they still have feelings toward each other especially when I observed Danica’s interaction with him. I bit my lower lip and then moved. Right now, I am going to ask a lot more with regards to his boss. Among all the people here in the mansion, Lorenzo is the only one I could ask in terms of his love lifes and past experiences. “How many years since they last saw each other?”Lorenzo shrugged his shoulders. “Hmm… maybe three years ago? Two? Or recently? I think my boss went to an event back then and saw Danica there. Who knows? Maybe the sparks between them came back?”Asking Lorenzo further details regarding my questions
Claudia Woods’ Point of View The orphanage we went to was just an hour drive away from the mansion. From here, I could hear Gavin answering a phone call as his gazes went to mine. I was just wearing my usual clothes, I did not bother to find something else rather than the dress I first saw in my closet. There are tons of children outside, they are all smiling the very first time I saw them. “Lisa! Lisa! You’re back,” one of them stated. Lisa went to the kids and due to my astonishments, they all hugged her. A gentle touch of warmth fell through my heart seeing and watching everyone at her. They were all cute, and entertaining when one male child saw me and dragged me with them. As I was assisting Lisa to give the following toys they had with them, I was quite astonished seeing there are plenty more at the covered court of the orphanage whilst a few adults who are wearing the same shirt are also helping. I was just following Lisa when their leader had a huge smile on her lips. “Th
Claudia Woods’ Point of View There was a faint smile onto my lips the moment I was looking at the box of cake I was holding. It’s nearly eight in the evening, and here I am, just gotten the cake I wanted to eat and give to him. I am not the one who’s at fault between us but I was the one who have gotten a food for him as a peace offering. Honestly, I am kind of at fault here as well. I did not tell him I will join Lisa to volunteer and instead of telling it to him first, I made my own decision even if Gavin, my bodyguard did not let me. I was breathing heavily, thinking of the questions I wanted to ask him. For the past few months we are both together, Zamir showered me with the attention, care and love I did not ask for him. He made me drown in his depth, and at the very moment I was at the bottom, I could no longer wiggle my legs and was unable to get out. Arriving at the mansion, there are several guards around the area. My eyes seek for Zamir’s presence, thinking that he will
Claudia Woods’ Point of View Warren was serious the moment we have gotten inside the car. As soon as the engine started, he couldn't stop looking at me as if asking me a question would sting. Warren remained quiet until we had successfully come out the gate and Warren being himself, he spoke. “I’m going to repeat my question, Claudia. Are you okay?”I sniffed. “Don’t mind me. Continue driving, the mansion is suffocating.” “Just tell me if you want to run away or leave them then I’ll do my best to help you,” Warren said. “I knew that man would bring no good for you. I have ways and believe me, he won’t find you if-”I derailed him off by chuckling sarcastically. “That won’t happen. No matter how much I hide, Zamir will find the shit out of me. We are tied together… and I don’t think he would just let me escape knowing who he is and what kind of person Zamir was.” Warren’s jaw clenched. “But I can help you. All you have to do is to trust me.”Trust. I’ve trusted them but they just br
Zamir Trian Cassano’s Point of View She nearly wanted to cry when she saw us together. I froze when I saw her standing at my door, holding a box of cake. Due to my surprised expression, I didn’t react quickly until Claudia closed the door and ran away from me. My gazes went to Danica. She was also in my room, and the towel was wrapped around her body. She was standing just beside our bed whilst she was holding her undies. The bed was in a mess, even the pillow was on the floor. "Why the fuck are you bere?" I muttered, bursting with all my anger as I put my clothes on one by one. Danica raised her eyebrows at me. "Technically, I was about to bathe here since the faucet and shower at the guest room isn't well. And then it worked, and I left my things here unintentionally. I came back to get it.""Do you think I'd fall for your reasoning? State the fuck why you are here!" I repeated, almost gripping her in her neck. She groaned and whimpered. She has been annoying me for days and Go
