Lucinda's POV. I was very happy concerning what I was seeing right now because now Daston what's going to feel my wrath piercing through his bones as I made sure that he regretted every single decision he had made in the past to bring me down one way or the other. Daston threw his head backwards and started laughing, acting like he was already about to die but didn't care about his life. I knew people like this and I had watched many movies where the villain tried to act like they didn't care about anything but instead deep down they cared much about it. "You don't have to worry about taking me out because it's just going to be a lot of burden for you in one pack but if you focus your attention on making sure that you have everything in check and telling you for your fact that you are going to enjoy the rest of your life." He was very problematic and I knew this but I wasn't going to give him the benefit of doubt that I was going to waste my time trying as much as possible to mak
Lucinda's POV "Are you okay, baby?" Mom asked the moment I walked into the dining for breakfast. "I'm fine, just having a little headache" I tried to smile to her but it was strained. "You look pale, did you catch a cold?" She felt my forehead with the back of her palm. "I think I did" I muttered. I did look pale, I guess even light makeup did nothing to hide it. I drew the plate of food closer and Mom settled on the chair across me. "Did you have breakfast Mom?" I asked and she shook her head. "Where's Mr. Walter?""He went out and Rocco did too" I was aware of Rocco's movements, he had left a note before on my bedside table. It was the first thing I saw when I woke up. He said he was out to the warehouse for something urgent. "Did you have a nightmare last night?" I looked at Mom when she asked this, how did she know?"I--""You should've called me, I felt something bad was going to happen when I heard you got your memories back""Half, not all" I shrugged. "Most of it" "It r
Lucinda's POV I got out of the car with the help of Rocco. "I'm fine, I already told you it doesn't hurt anymore" but he wasn't listening, he stood in front of me, crouching slightly "Get on my back, I'll give you a piggy ride" "No" I pushed him away slightly. "Stop it, you're embarrassing me"I looked forward at the entrance where Mr. Walter and Mom came out. Somehow, the sight of the both of them got me uncomfortable. I had spent three more days at the hospital, and for the rest of the days I noticed how relieved I felt. It felt like I was free, secure. The tugging feeling of being watched had disappeared already, did Rocco take care of the person?"You mean kill" My subconscious reminded and I pressed my lips into a thin line. That was exactly what I meant, kill. It didn't seem like a horrible action to me anymore, it didn't feel so horrible. It was like a kind of self-defense. Ugh! Jade what are you turning into?I didn't even feel remorseful or regret, if the stalker was tr
Darcus's POV She stood bewildered at my words. "Yeah, last night" I smiled, but she didn't have any kind of amusement on her face. The look she had on brought some sort of satisfaction to me. "What do want to say?""I--" But she couldn't say anything. The sound of my phone ringing pulled my attention from her, it was an unknown number but I knew who the caller was already, Gunnir. It took him long enough. "I wasn't expecting you to call this late" I showed disappointment through my voice "What did you send to me?" He sounded furious, that made me know that the spy was no ordinary person, he night even be more important than I thought "The video of your mobster's death" I replied. He went silent for what seemed like an eternity before sighing heavily, like he was trying to release some anger. "Let's meet up" he spoke what I wanted to hear"Why do you suddenly want to meet up? What if I say no" I asked "Then she dies" I laughed loudly. "You joke a lot for a Don""Ward 17 in th
Darcus's POV "Where are you off to?" Jade asked"Just some really important business, I'll be back" I replied. I was ready to leave the hospital, but she wasn't willing to let me leave. "Do you want me to get your favorite steaks on the way?""No" She shook her head and leaned closer. "I want something sweet today" she grinned I nodded with a smile and kissed the top of her head. "I'll get them for you," "We'll have them the same way we had the steak?" She asked and I nodded in affirmation "It's a promise" I winked and stood properly, walking out after waving at her"Don't forget it! And come back early" She yelled behind me"Yes, sweetheart" I replied and shut the door gently behind me. The moment I walked out of that ward, my demeanor changed. My eyes grew cold and dark. I went home first, having my bath and changing into something else, something as simple as a pair of black pants and a black shirt. Then I took my car, driving out of my condo; I dialed Sebastian on the way. "
Darcus's POV I was speechless, staring at her. Her face was moist from sweat, and her chest kept heaving. Her lips were quivering, and her body was shaking. She looked stunned at the same time relieved, I also couldn't ignore the confused look she had on. I didn't know how she was feeling all at once"Your memories?" I asked She nodded slowly, looking around the ward. Her memories? "It was clear, but I didn't get what I wanted"I understood what she was talking about, she didn't get the answers she was looking for, and her father's murderer. "But something feels off, I'm trying to fix the pieces of the puzzle but it isn't working" She looked frustrated "What is it?""We had an accident on our way to the airport. Who called Mom? Dad and the driver were the only ones in the car, I have no idea how or why the car door suddenly opened and I flew out" She touched her temple, shutting her eyes She must have hit her head on the fall. "There was no one around and it was raining" That
