WARNING: The chapter may be horrific. Kindly Beware.Melissa's POVWith keen alertness, I sneaked towards the side of the wall. However, the noise exploded again. I plastered my back against the wall and held to my breath so that the sound could minimize but my pulse pumped vehemently.About to run, the sound howled again. Fearfully, I got startled and plastered my back against the wall, however, I shrank to the back.Before I knew it, I was already down with a heavy thud. In awe as I lay flat on the ground.Again, the same noise came echoing, I jolted up as I felt it greatly in there. "Holy sh*t!"Once on both feet, I hurriedly close the door behind me. My back was against the door while I inhaled some fresh air. Profuse sweats already oozed out of me, I took some breath in to make my pulse steady. Patiently, I cling my ear to the door to listen if there were footsteps nearer.I breathe out strongly as I heard nothing.Tending to calm down, I sneezed. A strong musky smell was perceiv
Melissa's POVI had thought I was not going to survive it, however, faintly, I heard multiple voices resounding in my head. "You have to do it now before she wakes up!" It took a while before I process what I heard. Partially, I opened an eye and rolled it within the socket to scan through where I was. Instead, my vision was blurred. "No! I can't! I can't just do that to anyone!" came another voice but very dim like a male voice. It held a strange resonance frequency. If I was to be fed to that monster... I wouldn't have woken up... right? That was just a terrible nightmare! I was alive!But what were they planning to do to me before I woke up?I held my breath and listen patiently to figure out what those conversations meant. "Come on! Not like you haven't touched a girl before. This girl must not know that about you. She saw you out there. Do it or else I kill her." The voice was feminine yet sounded threatening as she blurted out."Hey! Relax!! You are not gonna threaten me a
Melissa's POV"Was that it?""That wasn't it, Stacy... Just stop making up a story!" Don retorted and spontaneously bounced his butt on the bed very close to my feet.I shook my head vigorously to reject being kissed as I flashback to that scary moment again, however, Stacy made my heart almost jump out of my chest as she question him further."Oh... No... Don, you have developed feelings for this girl, really?!" she mumbled into her palms with surprise.I almost choke and cough out but clipped my lips together to suppress and swallow them up. He was quiet, instead, his head wrinkled down, fixated on the floor.I....! have...! I have heard enough... There wasn't a need for me to keep hiding!Stacy walked away from him... sauntering to my side. I shut my eyes closed again. "You know what, you are too obnoxious! I accept it was all my fault so I will put an end to it!""How?" Sheepishly, Don questioned her. With confusion, I as well asked the same question within me. How?"I have the f
WARNING: Slight Mature Content. Beware!Donald's POV"I will never kiss a Monster!" Having spoken with grief, she spit upon my face.My knees weakened to my spine. That was the least I have ever expected anyone to call and do to me. I stood in awe and have no idea when she got free from my grasp. The next thing she does brings me back to presence. A hot and heavy slap landed on Stacy's cheek. For her to get through to Stacy, I was clueless. Perhaps just like I, Stacy too was shocked and had lost her guard."That slap is for you being so feeble, Stacy!" Melissa mouthed grievously at her.Her feet were still staggering and I had to watch her in silence. However, she picked up the syringe while Stacy was just grieving towards me. I pleaded with her. 'Stay calm... Okay.'But she shunned me off, tilting her head such that she was suppressing her anger towards the ceiling. Only if she understood that Melissa wasn't in her right sense now.Oh Goodness! Why did I even care?!"Ah...Ah...Ah...
Donald's POV That early morning, Melissa left my residence without uttering more words. Not even an answer to the question she asked. I was troubled seemingly because I haven't confirmed if her memory was successfully erased. The last time I erased someone's memory was 10 years ago and I had my necklace on. Therefore, having her left despite Stacy's persuasion in turn made me worry. I have no idea she speaks Portuguese let alone learned of what I had done to her. Perhaps, she vented because she still remembers everything I erased and stylishly escaped from my wrath. She was such an amazing one to have pretended and left my premises without the fear of being killed. Then, what was the essence of persuading her to stay when I was the real bad guy who had made her life miserable from the start? However, that afternoon, I got her message to have lunch with her at Redwood Restaurant today. I couldn't believe I'd arrived 20 minutes before her speculated time. In the luxury Restaurant,
Donald's POVMelissa caught me off guard with her proposal. If she was that desperate to stop the engagement with Ezio, was using me the best plan to come up with? Since she learned of me, definitely, she must have also learned of Ezio, her groom-to-be.Despite this awareness, she was still willing to strike a deal with me. What a poor Lady!A light smirk embrace my face as I noticed her legs were twisting against each other as she sashayed out of my presence.Meanwhile, I had sent Stacy and Edward to look into the reason Father attacked Scott's residence unduly. Whale Wing had cooperated so far with the deal made with the Shark Wing, so, I found no reason why Alessandro would kidnap Melissa. In fact, Melissa's attitude towards the engagement proved to me that Scott wants to sell his heiress to the Shark Wing. That was enough of a pledge to back up his Oath toward Alessandro. Why would father still attack him? Bing!The sudden beeping of my phone called for my attention and I divert
Donald's POV"Did I keep you waiting?"Melissa squeezed her face on looking up at me. Sluggishly shook her head twice in a response to tell me NO, however, she jeopardized that decency by lashing out at me in her usual counterattacking manner."That means I should admit we are even! Now, I can greet you without hindrance and pride."She rose from the chair and curtsied royally while murmuring along in a humble voice, "Good afternoon, Mr. Donald Don."I almost drool from my lips but firmly poised to rebuke all her sarcasm, "Funny!" I snarled without responding to her gesture rather took my seat.Having realized I was indifferent, she turned on that demonic side of hers again. With a sneer, she uttered without hindrance, "Your eyes were red and you looked meaner than when you left."I held her statement within nor appeared mortified, instead, I fixated on the table. The dishes have been cleared except for the wines. In front of me was an opened booklet which I ignored and reply to her.
Melissa's POV Throughout the ride, I was still aggrieved and I have no idea why such feelings kept draining me. I refused to let it show on me. I should be happy that one of my plans worked out and I don't have to worry anymore but deep down in my core, I felt unrest. I need to talk it out to someone, however, no one... For me, there was no shoulder to lean on. No friend to sob with me and no family to have my back. I felt empty and alone. As if I was straying off... As if I wasn't my usual self. I had blocked Alice and Kelly on all of my social media and I did not feel guilty about it. Friendship needs to be genuine! Not fake! But for this step I took, I was clueless... I don't know if this was the right decision, however, I didn't have any bad feelings toward it. I need to make this man aware that the relationship we shared was nothing but fake should in case I did not succeed in my Task. "Do you think I was the culprit who attack your residence?" Donald finally broke the s
