RIX P.O.V"Good morning Rix," nurse Joana greeted me."Good morning too."Several other nurses greeted me as I walked down the hallway. Carrying the bouquet I had bought from the florist that I passed. I went to Andrei's room.It was on the second floor of the building. When I arrived, I found the nurse watching over my brother's condition. She's fixing items inside Andrei's room."Good morning, nurse Josi," I said.She also greeted me back. I put the flower on the table next to the hospital bed."How is Andrei?"She smiled at me, "He's okay, Rix. He'll get better soon as long as he continues his medicine."I smiled at what I heard. "Thank you."We talked a little more before she said goodbye and that she still needed to do more rounds with other patients.I approached my brother after the nurse left. Compared to his appearance when I first brought him here, he is in good condition now. He is no longer that thin and pale.“Get well, Drei….” I caressed his forehead. It's been almost

RIX's P.O.V "Ha…" I opened my eyes because I felt the sweat on my neck. It's early in the morning but I am sweating… I suddenly remembered what happened yesterday and the other day. There are lots of nerve wrecking events that happened and if my life is in a movie I am sure that I would be famous by now because of the plot twists and life lessons in my life. Sometimes, I wonder what my life would be like if both my parents didn't die. Will I be professional in the field that I chose? Maybe if both of my parents are still alive they are giving us the love and care that we need then I don't need to do something like this. I know that my father left a huge sum of debt to us but for sure if they're still alive they will not let us suffer like this. Although my parents seem to be troublesome, they never neglected us and they never wished for us to suffer at a young age. They're working hard even though the number of work that they know is limited, they never went home without fo

RIX'S P.O.V"What are you talking about? What do you mean you kidnapped me?"I look at them confused, are they serious right now?The one in front of me met my gaze and said."We have something important to say to you, Miss.""What is it? But can you let go of me first? It's uncomfortable…""Oh yes sure of course!"The guy on my right removed the tie on my wrist."So what are you going to say to me?"I ask them while I am massaging my wrist, it's aching a little because of the rope's friction on it."Maybe we should change location first?'The guy on the left side.We all agreed to him because it is really uncomfortable talking here as we are all seated on the floor.They guided me to a room where everything looks expensive. I feel like we are in a five-star hotel and everything around me might break when I touch it.Just who are they and what do they want from me? Who is in their right mind to kidnap someone just because they want to say something?What if they are bad people and th

"I'm sorry, Apollo.""APOLLO? HA!" his voice has become lower, his lips are now on my ears, and… but… it's scarier. "Who told you?"Huh?What is he trying to ask?"What do you mean?”"Who told you you can call me that?" he asked."What should I call you, then?" I asked, as low as I could. As submissive as I can."Nevermind, I'm not on the names now," he said. He's calmer this time. But not me and my tears. "I told you to stay quiet, and I will do the rest. I told you that clearly, but how dare you mess up everything?"I can't say anything. I was just looking downward, while I sat on his bed, and he was on the side of me, nagging. I took a deep sigh, and bit my lower lip."What have you done to my image, Beatrix? What would they tell me about you? I'm afraid to even come back.""Maybe you should hire a different pretend wife," I said, nearly cracking up, almost bursting into tears.There were a few tears that were escaping, but it's manageable. "I'm sorry, did I hear you right?"

RIX's P.O.V.I clenched my fist, and bang the table. How dare he!“Rix! What are you doing with the table? Don't take out your anger on the furniture or you'll pay for it,” said Charis, struggling to keep out her laugh, while exchanging laughs and gazes with Harley.“Are you crazy? I'm not furious! Who would make me furious? It’s out of my league and you know that," I said but my brows are still standing ruffled, not bothering to straighten it up. Charis tapped my shoulder, and still teasing me!AISH.“Really, that wasn't my priority right now,” I defended. “If you guys think I like him, you're wrong!” I walked away and served drinks and foods that had been given to me. I don't like him, but he turned me on. Were having sex, no strings attached, but.. but…I feel like I was betrayed.Come to think of it, he was always the one to satisfy me. But me? I never satisfied him. I always did nothing for him. He was the one who was leading the sex.Ahckkk. I closed my eyes aggressively as
