ANTHONY

As I sat down in my office, I recalled everything that happened last night and smiled. From the dinner date to the special moments we shared, it was all amazing.

I knew that everything Ria told me last night was a lie. Her excuse of wanting to be under the rain, I knew she had made it all up but I pretended to be taken in by her lies. I didn't understand why I was suddenly so drawn to her, it was surprising because it was the first time I felt this way about a woman.

I never showed this much interest in any woman for as long as I had done with Ria. As for Trisha, I'd intended to marry her, which was why I kept her by my side, but it was nice though, feeling attached to someone the way I felt towards Ria.

Thinking about how effortlessly she had lied to me last night made me chuckle again, I began to wonder how she grew up telling so many lies. It was quite impressive.

Not many women were bold enough to lie so brazenly in front of me. I shook the thoughts of Ria off my mind an

  • QUEEN SCORPION   EPILOGUE

    RIAThree months later, Anthony and I held hands as we walked on a field. We had gone there to have a picnic because we wanted to try something different.For weeks, Anthony had taken me to all the fancy restaurants in different parts of the world, but today I craved something simple. A meal with just the both of us while enjoying a serene environment. As we walked toward where our seats had been prepared, I stared at the lilies decorating the field and smiled. "This place is beautiful. Anthony, how did you discover it?"He circled his arms around my waist and pulled me closer, "That's a secret I am not going to expose." I chuckled, I had thought he wanted to say something else. We stared at each other for a while before I briefly kissed him, "You know, in spite of how much time has passed, Anthony, this still feels like a dream.""Why?" He asked me. I shrugged, "I found love, Anthony. I never thought I could, but I found love in not just anyone but you; Anthony Baltimore, the bigg

  • QUEEN SCORPION   HE IS NOT WORTH IT

    ANTHONYI stared at Ria, who was on her knees, and my heart ached. I didn't want to do this to her, but I needed to be sure. Yes, I could feel her love for me, and I could see how desperately she did what she thought was best to save my life.I was deliberately putting up a front, but my heart was racing. I wanted her to tell me how much she loved me. I wanted her to tell me that she wanted to be with me.This was the first time in my life that I had felt this way about any woman. Yes, if it was anyone else, I would have killed them for daring to come into my house and poison me.But this was Ria, the girl I was madly in love with. I had to act a little bit but the more she confessed her feelings for me, the more my resolve broke. In the end, I could not bear to see her in pain anymore, and I had to let her down from where I hung her. I also dropped the gun I was holding. Ria said she wanted to be by my side. She wanted to be mine, what else could I ask for? I had everything else at

  • QUEEN SCORPION   I WANT TO BE YOURS

    RIAMy heart was thumping loudly as Anthony pointed his gun at me. He asked me how I thought everything was going to play out and I pondered over his question for a minute. I had also never tried to look at the end, I was mainly focused on saving Anthony but if only he could get past his feelings of anger and need for revenge. If only he could see me like he used to, then everything would be fine.... something suddenly occurred to me and I raised my eyes. "Hold on," I said to him. "You just explained now that everything was planned by you. I mean, while I thought my plans were being carried out, you were the game planner. What about all those things you said to me? The way you made me feel, the promises you made.Saying you love me, saying you were going to spend the rest of your life with me. Was that all a plan? Was it just to watch me make you fool of myself? Will you achieve your aim in the end? I mean, yes I knew I was no saint but regarding my feelings I never...""Yes and no,

  • QUEEN SCORPION   I LOVE YOU

    RIAI continued to stare at Anthony in surprise while my arms and legs hurt. I didn't know how long I had been tied up for but I was sure it had been more than two hours. I didn't understand what was going on. Anthony Baltimore?How could I have been so wrong about him? The things that happened between us from the moment I met him played over and over in my mind yet I could not understand how it turned out differently because things did not add up."Confused?" He asked and I nodded.He lowered his gun and said, "Okay, we have enough time. We can delay your execution. Now where do I start?Before you showed up at my house, sweetie, I already expected you. I was ten steps ahead at all times and it was fun watching you all play your part in trying to bring me down and steal my wealth. Hmm...I must have seemed really stupid and easy to you all.""But how...how?""How could I achieve all of that and steal look oblivious? Is that what you are curious about?" He smirked. "Ever heard of the B

    My eyes widened in fear as I reached for my gun, moving my hand closer to the pocket of my pants. however, Hale's warning voice rang from behind me."Don't even think about it, if you do not want me to blow up your brains. What did I tell you, Ria?A day of reckoning finally came. Now, where is your prince charming? He's gone and left you all alone."His words struck me as I realized that Anthony could really be gone from this world."What did you do to him?" I asked and he angrily slapped my cheek from behind."I said shut the hell up, Ria. Still pining over him even at a time like this? What happened to you?"I knew Hale was not going to let me live but I wasn't going to make it easier for him. This was what I thought.I lifted my right hand, wanting to strike his face with my elbow, however, I felt a sharp pain in my head as he knocked me unconscious with his gun.As darkness slowly engulfed me, he covered the hood over my eyes and that was it.When I opened my eyes, we were at the

    RIAAnthony stared at me and shook his head, "What is happening to you, Ria? We came here to have fun and not for you to become crazy. This is not funny anymore.""I wasn't trying to be funny, Anthony," I cried. "Why wouldn't you believe me? Why do you think I would joke with something like this?"He scoffed, "Believe you? Have you looked at the way you're acting, Ria? I don't get it, we came here to have fun and enjoy our lives, but you've been acting weirdly ever since we arrived.What do you mean by our lives are in danger? You're not making any sense." I nodded, "Okay, didn't you hear the gunshot earlier?"He smiled, "That sound earlier? That wasn't the sound of a gunshot.""Come on Anthony," I urged him. "Even you admitted to me back then that....."He shook his head, "Listen, Ria, let's not do this, okay? I don't know what is going on with you and you obviously don't want to share it with me, but I think you just need to rest and get yourself together, and you'll be fine okay."
