JOHN’S POV.

It couldn’t be possible. That was too bad.

“Okay, Lopez. You know what? Let’s just leave her out of this. Talk to me one on one like a man.”

“I believe I did that already. If it worked, we wouldn’t be here now. Last year, I tried so much to reach out to you, but you were so tight with things. Look at us. I even lied to be Tommy just to see you. We have come to this juncture, and we can’t go back.”

“Let’s do some kind of bargaini…” My words were cut off, as he ended the call.

I quickly dialed the number again, but I was redirected to voicemail.

I kicked my chair hard ,and proceeded to phone the men. Sharing it with them would make it less annoying, and fearful.

They arrived, minutes after calling them, and we all sat in my room.

“If he really kills Emily and somehow managed to splay her organs on the roof, I would be done for. Nothing would save me if these people think I killed her, and… and it’s not my intention to have her killed either. I still want her around, so s

    178EMILY’S POV.“Emily.” He called, and immediately bridged the gap between us, taking long strides towards me. He took the gag off my mouth, hastily, then stared deeply into my eyes, his pupils darting from left to right.“Have you… have you been well?” I asked, as my eyes watered once more. “Have you… have you been fine?” My voice wobbled terribly. “I’ve been waiting… I’ve been waiting for a long time.” I said, not wanting to burst into tears. Once more, I was seeing him. I was in front of him, and he was in front of me.His eyes spoke volumes, and so did mine. He was the only one in the room; the only one I could see. Slowly, he nodded, and his eyes watered, as he pulled me to him.My whole face crumpled, and squeezed as I wrapped my arms around him.“I’m here.” He said, but I only wrapped my arms around him tighter, like he was going to run, going to disappear on me. “I’m not going anywhere, Emily. I’m sorry. I…”“It was hell, Lucas.” I whispered.“You don’t have to say a thing.

    177EMILY’S POV.I slipped in the tub, and nearly hit my head, but I struggled to get to my feet. Pushing away everything in my way. I stood on tiptoes, getting to the top. Straining to see. He was no longer there, but I knew he was the one. I wasn’t mistaken.That face was one I had longed to see for months. I had roamed the streets, hoping to catch sight of that face, so why wouldn’t I recognize it even if I saw it for a second?My heart came alive in that moment, beating the way it hadn’t in years. I had thought my heart dead, and unable to spring alive again, but I was wrong.Jumping down from the bathtub, I dashed out of the toilet, running towards the door. My heart pounded crazily, just by seeing that face. It was no dream!It was real! Lucas had really come back. He had come for me. I pulled at the doorknob, but it was still locked, and I began to hit it, even though I was sure no one would hear.I pounded on the door hard with my everything, and even pulled the door knob fool

    176JOHN’S POV.I could not believe my eyes. My men all left the sofas they were perched on as Lucas walked in, looking at me with eyes colder than ice. Nothing was wrong with him. He seemed perfectly fine for someone who ought to have been fed with my drug for a year. The antidote was still on my wardrobe, lost there.How did he get out? I had given strict orders for him to be kept. Unknowingly, I got to my feet. His aura was way too commanding, and I was suddenly reminded that the mansion was his.My men went to stand behind me, and Lucas took his seat on the chair, crossing his legs as he sat.“Sit.” He said, his voice deep, and I feared because Emily was right upstairs. They were so close to each other. What would happen?I sat, surprisingly polite.“You have a lot of questions, I’m sure.” He began, looking around. “The house hasn’t changed one bit.” He replied, and I saw Kaye making to sneak up the stairs.“Get back! Scrub the kitchens!” I yelled, knowing she wanted to rattle to

    175JOHN’S POV.I sat in the living room, drinking a cup of iced tea, which I had ordered. My crossed legs were stiff, and my anger kept soaring each time I thought of my father’s declaration.He had made known his intentions to disown me. Although he was yet to make a formal declaration, I could tell he was going to. How could he say such? Was I an object that made throwing me away so easy?Die he even love me? He probably just wanted to give everything to his little brother like his other siblings wanted.I squeezed my glass. Lucas.Everyone seemed to want him around, instead of me. Well, he was never returning. I had locked him away for good.*You called for us, Alpha John.” Rebal said, sitting across me, with Landon, Emily’s guards, and a few more.“Now, you all are going to find out—I don’t know through what means— who is giving the orders at FT Enterprises. The one who leaked all the videos everyone is holding against me. I need to speak with their CEO. Tell him I need an audien

    174EMILY’S POV.John and I got home late in the night, and I got down from the car, slowly.“Did he hurt you?” John asked.I shook my head.“Did anyone else try to harm you?” He asked, walking towards me, and I shook my head again. “All he did was cut your hair?”I nodded. “Did you eat? What did you eat?”“Rice. Steamed vegetables. Braised chicken.”“Now you’re speaking.” He said, and walked away, sticking his hands into his pockets.I followed after him, and went to my room. Taking off the dress, and removing the pins, I stepped into the shower, and turned the water on.It rained down on me warm, sweet, and comforting. Despite it being hell, I was home. A home, the troubles of which I was used to. At least, I knew the worst that could happen, and was prepared for it.My mind went over everything that had happened.*You are beautiful.*Lopez, one of the men who had tried to rape me, and the woman who had dressed me had made mention of.John had hugged me so comfortingly, but none of i

    173EMILY’S POV.Instinctively, I swatted his hand away. I was used to being abused, but not his rough touch. No matter how violent John was, he didn’t have that rough grip that the man in front of me had.He let out a bark-like laugh, and clapped.“Feisty. Do you know where you are? You’re with Lopez now. You see, the three of us are going to show you magic, and it would be best for you if you enjoy it.” He said, and one of them stood in front of me, jerking my hair downwards, making my chin tilt upwards forcefully.“Stop it.” I said, panicking as one sat behind me. “Stop!” I screamed, as his hands came underneath my T-shirt from behind, grabbing my breasts, and me to his chest. I began to scream, as the one in front of me began to take out his belt.The third one, struggled with my shorts. I didn’t give him the chance, I fought, throwing my legs around.“Surrender!”“You’re only making it worse.” The one behind me rasped, and hot tears burned at the back of my throat.“Leave me! Let
