NADIA’S POVTwo weeks here had been nothing short of joy. I was loving and living my dream life all thanks to my husband.Getting enrolled was very easy because Will was supportive. To crown it all, I was able to convince him to allow me to keep a guard who would stay around and not follow me everywhere , making me feel awkward.A smile curled on my lips at the thought of my loving husband.“Hey, Nadia.” Derek called out to me as he walked into the class, with his right hand in his pocket.“Hi, Derek. Didn’t expect to see you so early.” I said, with a smile, as I turned to him when he sat beside me.Derek was a friend I met two days after I got admitted. He was a nice guy and beyond that, I loved his artistic prowess. I liked the fact that he respected me and acted mature.“Yeah, I guess I can say the same thing about you.” He chuckled lightly, and ran his fingers through his dark curls.“Look. I drew the Eiffel Tower, but there’s something weird about it.” I uttered, hoping he could

WILL’S POV Help me Please help I opened my eyes to see Nadia whispering these words by my side. "I'm here, baby. You're safe. I've got you." I patted her as I sat up on the bed. She gasped and jerked up from the bed. “Nadia, honey, it was a nightmare, right?" I asked, out of concern. Then she turned to me, looking sad. “Yes.” She responded, and sniffled. “I need you to be calm, Nadia. I’m here with you." I said, trying to make her feel better. “Will, it’s not just the nightmare. I’m also being threatened.” She spoke, with her voice sounding shaky. “Threatened?” I repeated as my right eyebrow arched up. “Yes." She turned to the bedside table to retrieve her phone. "Look at my phone. A text message came up, and it was a threat.” She said as she checked her phone for the texts she received. But there was no evidence of those messages, sent to her phone. I sighed, and cleaned my face with my hand, then moved closer to her at the other side of the bed. I turned her to face me

NADIA’S POV“Will.” My eyelids fluttered open.“Nadia, are you okay now? How are you feeling?”“I’m…I’m okay, now.” I replied softly.He placed his hand on my left cheek, and rubbed it softly with his thumb.“What happened?” He asked, out of concern.“I don’t really know. I was just feeling dizzy and weak. And that happened all of a sudden, so I guess I passed out. How did you know I was taken to the hospital?” I asked, out of curiosity.Before I could speak a word, the door opened, and the doctor walked in with a file in his hand.“Good day, sir.""Good day doctor, thank you so much for everything." Will shook his hands."You are highly welcome and we have good news. The baby is in good condition. Luna Nadia just needs to rest very well. At this stage, she ought to be eating well, and then stress less to avoid being in a bad condition.” The doctor explained.“Thank you, doctor. We’ll note that.”"I will arrange for her discharge immediately."As the doctor walked out, Will’s gaze tur

Nadia's povMy eyelid fluttered open as the sound of birds chirping woke me up. I got prepared for school although I didn’t plan to go to school yet. I needed to go over to Derek’s house to talk him out of whatever ugly thoughts he had in mind.I hailed a cab, and was driven off to his house. As soon as I got near his front porch, I was hoping that his door wasn’t locked, because if it was, and he was about to kill himself, he certainly wouldn’t open the door for me. I walked faster towards his door, and when I pulled the door knob, I realized it wasn’t locked.“Thank goodness.” I muttered under my breath.“Derek!” I called out his name as I walked in, and looked around.“Derek!” I called out to him again but there was no response from him. Everywhere was silent. Not even a creaking sound could be heard. Was he inside, I wondered? I noticed a curved staircase and immediately I rushed up the stairs to see him staring out into space. He looked lost."Derek." I called out but he didn

NINA'S POV.All the parts of my body steamed with pleasure as delight filled my screams and moans. It was a moment of ecstasy as I was being taken to soaring heights right there on my bed.The sheets were a mess and our clothes were strewn recklessly on the floor and the room was lost in our honeyed sounds. I was right at the peak of it all barely containing my excitement when I suddenly crashed back to the ground with the sound my door swinging open. We stopped in the middle of it, and stared at my shocked and disgusted mother who stood at the door still with her hand on the knob. She had probably never expected to walk in and meet me like that. "Nina!" "Mum. Why don't you knock? There's a reason there's a door. It's common courtesy." I snapped, feeling the anger in me rise like waves."Are you kidding me, Nina? You were so taken away doing your stuff, you didn't even hear me knocking and knocking, and why would you leave all your doors unlocked when you're…?" She said still in d

NADIA'S POV.I was worried about what Derek had said. It nibbled at me as I walked out of his apartment.I had tried to brush it away but I couldn't because he was right. I had gotten something that had made me happy. Was I going to lose it? My hand had strayed to my stomach involuntarily and it had all shown on my face. I instantly wished I hadn't allowed him to read my palm. It had only given me something to be depressed about. "Hey, I'm sorry." He had said as I snatched my hand from his. "You shouldn't believe that. It has been so long since I studied palmistry. I've probably lost my touch." He had added, trying to console me, but my mood couldn't be revived. "It's fine… it's cool." I bade him goodbye.** ** **My eyes opened the next day and I sat up feeling a little groggy. "You okay? You slept throughout yesterday." I suddenly heard Will say before turning to see him at his desk studying some papers with a cup of coffee next to him."Oh. I was just really tired, but I couldn

NADIA'S POV.Seeing those words slashed mercilessly across my canvas suddenly made me feel weak and dizzy. Someone was stalking me, following me everywhere I went, and they had the guts to make such a bold statement to threaten me. I looked around the garden wondering if there was a camera of some sort but I couldn't see any, and a heady feeling enveloped me as I went back to staring at those words. My breathing came out rapidly and it felt like I was going to have a panic attack, but instead I fell crumpled to the floor and watched the world before me split into two and finally blackness crawled in the edges of my vision and it all faded away. The next time I awoke, it was to a white ceiling. My eyes fluttered open and close slowly as I tried to make sense of where I was, and then I realized I was in Derek's room. I turned my head to the side and saw him sitting in a chair bare-chested with only a pair of shorts on.I wondered why he didn't have his clothes on, but realized that w

I couldn't help feeling that the next thing they would do was try to kill me.Derek took back the shepherd pie, took another spoon casually and dropped it on the bedside table next to me. "Proof that it's not poisoned." He muttered, as he took his phone and started to type. But who could have sent him? Who was the one enemy I had? Who was trying to get rid of me? Was it Nina? It had her writing all over it but Nina was direct. She would get at me herself.Who hated me this much that they had to plan so carefully to get me into their trap.
