"Aww! It's big! And pretty!" Tiffany gawked, pressing her face to the car's window as Sebastian's parents' house came into view.

'This is it. I'm finally meeting his parents again, but this time there are no other guests to take their attention. Their eyes will completely be on me.' I swallowed air and rubbed my palm across my lap.

'It's not a big deal. I just have to lie to a couple that I'm dating their son, but who knows what they would do to me if they find out I'm lying? Maybe I shouldn't have agreed to Sebastian's plan. I'm even more nervous than I would have been if Sebastian was actually my boyfriend. Is it too late to—'

"You'll be fine, Aurora. My parents love you." Sebastian assured me, patting my knee.

"There's a high chance of them changing their mind if we don't pull this off." I let out a dry laugh.

"Trust me, we make the perfect couple." He kissed me on my cheek, and my face flushed.

"Aww, Mummy is shy." Tiffany cooed as she ogled at Sebastian and me, a larg

    "I don't know; marriage is a really big commitment, and it's scary too. Just look at what my last one did to me." I mumbled as I fiddled with my fingers."I know, if I were in your shoes, I'd be terrified of even getting a boyfriend. But you know Sebastian isn't like Bruno." Dorothy said."Obviously. It's like comparing a diamond with dirt. Bruno is a demon, while Sebastian is an angel. Sometimes, I don't know how I managed to bag a guy like him. Sometimes I feel like he's way out of my league. I mean, look at me." I said."Don't say that.""But it's true. Sebastian is rich, handsome, kind, generous, caring, understanding, gentle yet firm, and protective, while I'm—""Beautiful, also caring, kind, understanding, gentle and firm, protective, determined, a fighter – should I continue the list because I could go on all week?" She smiled."You're just saying that because you're trying to make me feel good about myself." She pouted, and she grabbed my cheek."Look at me. Have I ever

    "Dorothy!" I gasped as she squeezed me. "What are you doing here?""Where else am I supposed to be? You can't expect me not to come after I heard what happened." Dorothy replied."Since when have you been around?" I asked as she let go of me."Last week. I've been taking turns with Mrs Warner and sometimes Sebastian so they can sleep or attend to whatever is urgent. Honestly, I feel like I haven't been doing anything with how dedicated they have been." She smiled."I'll leave you two ladies to catch up." Sebastian said as he stood up. "What do you want to eat?""Um... I don't know. I just want something sweet and easy to swallow. I think a Caesar salad would be nice, and cake too." I replied."Got it. Anything for you?" He asked Dorothy."Oh, nothing. I'm fine." She shook her head."I insist. I'm sure Aurora would love if you ate with her too." He urged, and I nodded."If you insist. I'll take the same too. Thank you." She smiled."Got it." He nodded and walked out of the ro

    "I don't think it's a good idea to talk about it now." Sebastian frowned."But I want to know. I don't think I'll be able to sleep because I'll be thinking about the different possibilities of how the situation could have ended. He didn't escape, did he?" I asked."With the amount of cops surrounding the building? He stood no chance. Even if he had tried, I would have hunted him down myself." He snorted."That's good. What about Fiona? Is she alright? I'm not too sure where in the house she was when I got there or if she was alright, but Bruno planned on killing her after he killed me." I said."You're really sweet worrying about somebody who was a bitch to you when you're just recovering." He smiled softly, and I blushed at the compliment."I know she was mean, but I don't wish her death. Besides, I think she was just being gullible and naive. Bruno certainly told her a lot of lies about me, so she was simply acting based on what he said. I doubt she would be mean to me after what ha

    I crinkled my nose at the sharp smell of antiseptic, and my eyes fluttered open. 'Where am I?' I thought as I stared at the white ceiling.The memory of what had happened hit me, and I gasped as I quickly sat up.Tiffany? Where was Tiffany?I jumped down from the bed and screamed at the pain that rushed through my head."Miss Nigel." A nurse gasped as she opened the door."Ti... Tiffany? W-where is Tiffany?" I slurred as I stumbled forward, and she caught me before I fell."You need to sit down, Miss Nigel. You're in no state to walk." She said as she tried to help me sit down, but I yanked off the strings and tube attached to me."Don't do that. You'll hurt yourself.""I need to see her. Is she ok? Please tell me she's ok?" I begged, gripping her shoulder as tears gathered in my eyes."She's—""Aurora!" Sebastian gasped as he entered the room and quickly hugged me."I'm so glad you're ok." He whispered and melted into his arms."Where is Tiffany? Is she ok?" I asked as

    "Y-you can't do that. You have to let us go. She's your daughter. You... You can't be so cruel." I stuttered as all the confidence in my body was replaced with terror."I don't give a sh*t about the little brat. The daughter of a b*tch is also a b*tch." Bruno chuckled as he pulled out a cigar from his pocket and lit it."You don't have anything to gain from her death. You'll only have the blood of an innocent child on your hands. How will you be able to sleep at night knowing that you've murdered a little girl that did nothing to you?" I whispered."Oh, I'll sleep well alright. I've done a lot of dirty things that you can't imagine, so I can assure you Tabitha's death won't make me flinch." He shrugged."P-lease, Bruno. I'm begging you. I-I... I can't lose her." I begged as tears began to gather in my eyes."Please, Bruno. I'm begging you. I can't lose her." He mimicked and laughed. "And look, you're crying. So pathetic. But then again, you've always looked so delicious when you cried

    "How do you feel?" Bruno asked as he led me to Tiffany."Feel about what?" I frowned."About the truth of what happened at our lunch coming out? It's trending, you know. I'm sure you're brimming with happiness that you've been vindicated and I'm now the bad guy." He said, sounding completely unfazed by how the situation had changed.I pressed my lips into a thin line, unwilling to be urged to talk about the situation. I just wanted to get my daughter and get out of here."Your daughter is in here. Go in." He said as we stopped in front of a door.The nagging feeling that something was wrong ran ten times more in my head, and I gulped."Come on, what are you waiting for? I thought you'd be excited to take her away from here, but you're stalling? What? Having second thoughts about returning to being a single mom? You've finally tasted what it meant to not have a child for forty-eight hours, and you're missing it already?" He taunted, but I didn't reply. I held my phone tighter a
