The next morning, when the sun rose up my eyes were bloodshot from the lack of sleep. Trina had slept so well. She didn't have any more dreams or nightmares. Our presence was what made her feel safe.

“What is it? “ Max asked, when he saw the concern on my face. He was tired too, we couldn't sleep last night from fear of what would happen to Trina.

“Nothing, I'm just worried." I stood up and went to the bathroom to wash my face. When I got back inside the room, Trina was still asleep and Max was running his fingers through her hair. “What about you, are you okay.? You've dealt with this before. So how are you feeling now?" I continued.

He turned to look at me, taking his eyes from her. "I'm just worried. I will always worry about her. She is my girl, you both are.”

I moved closer to him and placed a kiss on his cheek, holding his face in my hands. “She will overcome this. From what she said last night. It is the fear of getting lost. I know she didn't look as if she was afraid when she

    EPILOGUEFour Years Later“You look beautiful, love, but Trina's impatience to see you is going to make Mrs Rolly have more gray hair.” I laughed, “I'm almost done." Max grabbed me by the waist and just kept on looking at me.“You know I am not done, you have to let me go.” I said, seeing he was not letting go."What's remaining? Your jewelry?”"Yes.”"I can help with that.” He took the jewelry box he had bought last week for this specific function and put it round my neck.I was putting on a white flowing gown, my neck and shoulders were not covered and the scar of the gunshot wound was still visible.Thinking about that kidnapping sent a shiver down my spine. “Are you cold?" “No, I just remember what happened to give me this scar."Max's face changed, Heather told me how Max almost gave up and he went over the edge. The months that went by after that were so bad. I was in the hospital for two months because I fell into a coma. Waking up and I was told June died, after she shot me

    I regained consciousness to find myself tied to a chair. I still felt dizzy from whatever was used to make me lose consciousness in the first place and had a blasting headache. I shook my head to clear my head.I looked around and it was like I was in an empty warehouse. My life couldn't have felt anything less that good right now. I can't believe I've been kidnapped, in my current emotional state.I hadn't the faintest idea why I was…wherever I was. It seemed ridiculous that I would be anyone’s personal ransom bait, and I couldn’t see how anyone would know where I was at the moment I was taken. But to somebody, it must have been quite a work. I wondered what my abductor could want from me, I tried thinking about any possible person that could hate me enough to kidnap me and the only set of people that came to mind was June and Daniel and I did not think they had the guts to do this.There was a gag converting my mouth, catching sight of the camera on the wall across from me for the

    “You are lying. You are a liar, I don't believe anything you say." I screamed at him, my body shaking. Why will he hurt me like this? “I’ve loved you Max and you lie to me. Why?”"Please Selena, I'm not lying. I swear I'm not.” He moved from where he was to take my hand and I swatted him away."Don't touch me. Don't touch me, you have no right to. You kept quiet about so many things, you knew I worked at your company but you said nothing…” tears dropped from my eyes as I remembered the remaining things he had just said.“You…” I tried to continue but my throat closed up, anger and the sob trying to break out didn't help."I know I lied, please I know that but baby I couldn't tell you. I was afraid, afraid if I told you I've seen you for years before we got married you wouldn't want anything to do with me. That you will be wary, so I pretended to be a stranger, I pretended to not show I am in love with you but…”I couldn't take any more of his explanation. “Stop!! Just stop. I don't ca

    We watched her sleep for a few minutes before we left to go to our own room, holding hands. Today has been perfect, from the good news that Max gave me of Stella not being in cahoot with Daniel and June to the best dinner date.“She’s perfect, very perfect.” I said to Max because it has truly been."I know I tell you everyday, but you raised an angel.”“I know, I'm so proud of her. She is just four going five in some months and she has a good head on her shoulders. I'm happy she was drawn to you immediately and you are perfect Selena. You are good for her.”I smiled at him, happy she did too and happy he sees me this way. “Well, it's good her crazy mother left. Do you still keep track of her?"The situation with Heather was still fresh in my mind. Especially how June wanted to use her against me, it was with planning and all we prevented her from meeting Trina again after she almost gave me a heart attack when she met Trina at school. "Always, until I'm sure she is not going to cause

    He raised his head as he stepped out of the elevator and looked at me with a wide smile. I walked up to him and gave him a big kiss, not caring about the audience then I hugged him.His eyes were filled with love as he stared at me and took my bag to hold it. We walked out of my company building, thankfully there were less paparazzi as the day went by.We waited for the car to come around and we entered into his car with a driver at the driver's seat.“How was your day? Was there any trouble?" He asked, taking my hands in his as he caressed them.“It was good, just too much workload. Then you gave me the news. Ehe… about that, I'm just glad she is clean and not in cahoot with them. She was down today and I asked what happened, so I could help.”My train of thoughts stopped and I got distracted by his eyes, as he gave me his undivided attention. He noticed and a smirk appeared on his face.I know even if he wanted me to go back to my everyday life, he was still worried about me. That's

    “Let him in. I guess, what he has to say is important." Stella left my office to let him in.He entered my office, looking every bit angry but trying to hide it. "Good morning Mrs Stone. I see you are back to the company, you were gone for a while.”"Well Mr Oliver, my husband and I had things to take care of. I'm sure you can understand that.” I'm not above using my husband to make someone afraid and that purpose was achieved because he tried to mask his shocked face."I know that, I'm sorry for the things that have happened to your family.”I took his fake apology at face value and nodded in understanding. “Is there an important issue you came here to tell me?"I asked him, he needed to leave and go back to his work. “No… I just wanted to see you, I'll go back to my work now.”I could tell he would have said more if I hadn't mentioned Max. He always wants to try and put me in my place, but this time he couldn't. The fear of my husband is always something I will use.After he left,
