Erika's POV I've been dialing their numbers but no one answering their phones, and it made me anxious. They haven't update me since they were gone, and that's freaking worrisome after I made myself occupied for over ten hours and remained on his grandmother's side. Grayson is a tough guy, one bullet was not enough to kill him and hopefully I'm right about it.Out of uneasiness, I seated down and lean my head on the wall. After that, I close my eyes before exhaling deeply just to calm my heart down. This is frustrating. "You looked really stress," that voice gave me hope quickly causing me to open my eyes as soon as possible. My gazes landed on the man in front of me. Asher's smile gave me hope, and made me stood up immediately just to asked him the question I've been waiting to see. "Where is Grayson, Ash? Is he okay? Did you save him?""Chill, Erika. I can't answer your questions at once, and we have a news for you.""What? And why are you sound like something happened? Where is
Grayson's POV Staring at my grandmother's door while thinking about the facts deeply, she's not gonna believe me if I told her about Gerald wrong doing. She won't understand why my brother did such a thing, and already expecting that to happened. I know she won't accept Gerald's insane reasons, especially since we're not biologically siblings. However, I need to take everything slowly before telling my grandmother about the truth. Gerald and I are not brothers, that's why he dare taking our lives one by one because his anger to my family is the reason why he become like that.I opened the door and entered, then saw my grandmother. She's facing the huge wall and staring at the dark sky, she is quiet and didn't say anything when I entered. That's why I waited her to speak and notice my presence, which is not hard for her not to feel my presence. "How's your brother?" She asked.I was stunned by her question. I didn't tell her anything yet, but she already know."You knew?" I asked he
Erika's POVThis is what I afraid of since yesterday. After me and Gray went home, he didn't say anything or answer my question before we left his grandmother's mansion. He even rode a different car like what we did, and that's a sign Grayson is not very well. That's why I'm still waiting here in the living room, hoping I would see him and discuss everything what happened but Grayson doesn't seemed interested on having a chat since he didn't went out of his room, I even thought of sending a food to him because he refused the eat breakfast. But my attention was captured by the person who entered the living room, causing me to stand up immediately and I won't waste this chance without talking to him. I approach him in an instant, and stood in fron of him with braveness. "I have questions, Gerald."He smirked, "Questions? You're asking the wrong person.""I believe I approach the right person.""Sure. Whatever insane question it is, it doesn't matter.""Your brother ignoring me since
Erika's POVFrom the moment I stepped my foot on this place, and my life was serve to a monster who killed five women in a row after choosing me as his surrogate. My path change when I slowly knowing him and his history, even though I should focus myself from one job and that is giving him a baby. I stared outside my room's window before sighing, the rain started since I woke up and the weather start getting cold. So, I embraced myself and shut the window immediately. I went back to my bed after closing the blinds and cover my whole body with a thick blanket. After that, I checked my phone to see the time and noticed that I've been sitting here for three hours. So, I decided not to stay any longer and check what's going on downstairs. I already expecting a quiet atmosphere because Gerald and the rest packed their things last night. The silence greeted me when I arrived, which always like a cemetery and ghost roaming around this mansion. All my eyes can see is guards in black, dogs,
Erika's POV"Hey, Erika girl. What's up?" Asher's grind greeted me after arriving at the living room. I know exactly what his grind trying to imply, and he didn't get over what happened yesterday. He'll definitely use that to annoy me everyday and have to prepared myself since I am living on the same house with him. Although any day I will gonna punch him on the face because of that."Not now, Asher. I'm not the mood messing with you," that is the only answer came up to my mind because if I made this conversation longer, he'll going to annoy me. "Sadly, but you're living on the same roof with me. You are going to see this face everyday, and did I warn you before? About having s*x in open area? For example this area?""No, you didn't say anything to me.""Oh, my bad. Maybe I forgot, you know things are tough to overcome these days. However, I have bad news and good news for you.""What?" I asked after sitting on the vacant couch because he's sitting on the couch where Grayson and I h
Grayson's POV"They had a rough intimacy yesterday and that is freaking awesome!" Asher's voice filled my whole office when they arrived, and enough to break the silence. "Hey, Grayson! What's up? Did you have fun yesterday?" He remind me what Erika and me did yesterday."Have a sit," I answered, ignoring his question. They seated separately and waited for my words, although my men already what they have to do and not to do. Asher and Nicholas are one of the best person I have, that's why I have to make careful decisions. "How's diggin', Nicholas?" I questioned him. "Glad you asked me that because his wife doesn't want to claim his body, and buried him. His body remained untold, and none of his relatives know about his sudden death.""What do you expect, Nicholas? That woman chooses him to be buried without his relatives knowing it, and take note that woman is his second wife."Every single information we know about Gary wasn't even complete because aside from the mother if his so
Erika's POV This is absurd. I don't know what to feel and what to react because those news are quite unbelievable. My feet was frozen because I couldn't process the unexpected news. How come Patricia got pregnant without me knowing it? I mean, that's not my business anymore and I shouldn't feel this. However, there's part of me wanted to feel frightened after knowing this woman is pregnant with Grayson's child. But what if she's lying? What if she's telling those things so he wouldn't kick her out? What if? Argh! "I'm pregnant, Grayson. That's why you can't do this to me, and you have to let me stay here..." She muttered. Grayson remained calmed, "That's not my child, Patricia."That word made me feel relieved because somehow those are the magical words I've been waiting to hear, and in this kind of situation I badly need that one. "What? It's yours, Gray.""How, Patricia? How can I have a baby with you if nothing happened between us? Don't tell me that was made out of other man
Grayson's POV I drank all my brandy in the glass before looking out to my window. The sky is really calm, no traces of thunderstorm. I felt this day is very special and it is indeed. Today is very special day because today is my mother's 17th year death anniversary, which every single memory sink into my mind and hard to forget. Everything reload, from the moment I found out she's dead and my brother was alive. From the moment I find out he's behind my mother's death, and unpunishable. My rage are the only reason why this resentment remained, and I'm not going to let my brother prove my father wrong. Especially I become a huge failure to my own father. "Grayson," Nicholas's voice cut my deep thoughts, causing me to looked around and approached my chair. He's with Asher, but Asher still silent since yesterday. I am confused what's with his sudden quietness, but I must say he give me a huge favor for not talking. "Have you find what I asked you to find?" I inquired. "Yes. Your bro
