"I will count to 3, that's your chance to flee, if you are lucky, you're free, if not, you are a dead body..."I jerked awake, gasping for air all over again, my hand reaching up to my chest to steady my raging heartbeats while my other hand reached out to the lamp sitting on the table and switched it on, finding myself in my room, on my bed.I sough, lounging my back on the wall, the scene of my nightmare replaying over and over again, refusing to leave, taunting me repeatedly, lingering constantly at the back of my head, reminding me of that faithful day.His bruised lips, his smirk, his taunting and echoing laughter, his words.1...2...3...I remembered it all as if it happened yesterday. I took a breather, clearing those thoughts from my head, it was in the past, I didn't want to dwell in it but I didn't know why I still had nightmares over it.I grabbed my phone and put on my glasses while checking the time on my phone, it was only 6 in the morning.I sighed, putting

Chapter 2.
(Kim's POV )The car ride was anything but ecstatic as my parents, especially my mom threw words at me, I felt attacked as she stated on my dress when she was among those who picked it out."That's a lot of cleavage being exposed!" She took a peek at me from the front mirror. "It doesn't even look good on you, we should have gotten you another dress,""Mom, Kim looks good!" Eloise remarked, smiling up at me and I returned it but less bigger as I stared down at my palms, fondling with my hands. "Look at her, so sheepish and weenie, Kareen would have looked stunning in that dress, she looks beautiful in everything anyway""Kareen is the bride, Mom!" Again, Eloise countered. Such a sweet little sister I had, she understood me better than anyone."I know, she is just perfect, she's only 23 and has gotten herself the best job and she getting married to the richest man in the country," Mom praised with a dreamy smile as she stared at the road."Kim's gonna have a good job and get married t

"I do not believe this!" Mom's voice shattered the stillness that fall upon the room as she paced from one end to the other, hands on her hips.Kareen ran away from her wedding, Realization sunk deep into my system. Why would she do that?!Mom sharply reeled to dad. "Philip, call Kareen immediately!" She ordered and Dad didn't hesitate as he pulled out his phone and dialed Kareen's number but it immediately went into voicemail. "Keep trying till you get through!" She rasped, racking her hands through her hair, aggravated."Now listen..." The woman got up on her feet, arranging her glasses. "Today's rite is not about wedding two people together, Billions of dollars are involved, contracts are at risk, and believe me, I won't lose any of those because of some foolish girl who makes preposterous decisions!""We will have to postpone the wedding, something must have happened to Kareen!" Dad suggested and a peal of demeaning laughter erupted from the woman's throat."This wedding will not

I gawked at my reflection in the mirror, smoothing my hand on the patterns of the wedding dress, realizing how it fitted my body. I sighed with my shoulders plunging while I took off my glasses and loosened my ponytail, letting my wavy hair fall on my shoulders.Picking up my dress, I stepped out of the bathroom, finding my parents and a make-up artist waiting for me, I was immediately rushed to a chair."We are a bit late but there's nothing wrong with the bride arriving late at her wedding, I will make sure you look perfect!" The make-up artist clamored in an energetic tone as she set her item's down and started working on my looks. I smiled at her. "By the time I'm with you, you won't be recognized, you will be more than perfect!"Again, I sent her a smile. I peeked a glance at my parents who stood in the corner watching me. I immediately averted my gaze.A few minutes later, my makeup and hair were done and a veil was placed over my head. I was ready to leave and seconds later, I

(Kim's Point of View)I remained placid, the words of the priest barely penetrating through my eardrums as I continued to gawk at Mr. Rodriguez, most might think it was from reverence but I was flabbergasted without a doubt.I have never met Kareen's fiance before and this wasn't who I thought he was.Through the veil, I met his eyes for the nth time but this time, I didn't try to look away.His eyes were the deepest and darkest shade of grey I have ever seen, they punctured through my face but what caught my attention more was the dreadful glint in his eyes that could not be unseen once it was discerned.Was he able to tell I wasn't Kareen and if he did, why was he pushing through with this?I felt anxious with those grey eyes staring up at me and when I couldn't take it anymore, I finally looked away till it was time for the rings and the vows.His best man came forward with the rings, my breath hitched and I flinched when he took hold of my hand. I gulped when he didn't do anything

(Kim's Point of View)The Rodriguez's mansion was an enormous one, especially the living room where I was crouched, however, the more I sit there with my hands held on my laps, the more the space got portable with the various pair of eyes gawking at me from the opposite.Under their gazes, I felt small, I had never been the type to strive for attention, I made sure to stay away from it till today and I felt like I had nowhere to hide, I felt jeopardized.Awkwardly, I reached out to adjust my glasses.Five more minutes passed with no one saying a word till a man in a suit hiked into the living room with a suitcase and a smile broke on Mrs. Evans's lips as she stood up and shook the man's hand. "Welcome Attorney Gilroy, we've been expecting you, please have a seat,"The tanned man sat beside me on the couch while Mrs. Evans went back to her seat."Attorney Gilroy, I want you to meet Kim Quant, the sister of Kareen Quant, I believe you must have met her before,"I attempted to make mysel

I strived to keep my focus on the task at hand which was serving the guest at the restaurant I worked in but I couldn't, finding myself zoning out, deriving to a horrendous headache."Are you alright?" My colleague queried and I bobbed, I was fine, I just needed to lay down, it was nothing grave.Dumping the tray into the washing sink, my gaze thwarted to the ring on my finger and sighed. What had I gotten myself into?"Are you sure you're alright you have been spacing out lately,"I held up my head, watching my colleague and only close friend Sam ambling in. She placed her hand on my forehead, "You don't have a fever,"I beamed. "I'm fine Sam, it's just a headache,"She shrugged and slept her back on the wall. "So...when were you going to tell me about that?" She motioned towards the wedding ring on my finger."Ah, this..." I snickered nervously. "It happened out of the blue,""It sure did, I had no idea you even had a boyfriend, the Kim I know would never conceal anything from me, w

I beamed as I waddled out of my bedroom, sliding through the photos in my professional camera, searching for the perfect ones to sell However, the smile on my face plunged when I discovered there was nothing good enough to barter.I sighed with my shoulders dropping. I seriously needed to scour more. I arrived at the living room, not finding the usually frigid man with wayfarer glasses, however, my gaze docked on one of the maids and my camera instantly clicked and she paused, ogling at me with a dumbfounded mood."Oh, I'm sorry, I normally take pictures of people doing everyday things and nature," I immediately clarified."Oh, there's a garden at the back,"My grin magnified at the information. "Thank you," I ducked thankfully and raced towards the back of the mansion. The sight that greeted me was wow as I abruptly thwarted and gawked.The sight before me was an immense oasis with many multi-colored flowers blossoming gloriously.With a satisfied smile, I too

Anxiously, I loitered outside at the company's lobby, adapting my glasses once in a while and nuzzling my hands. And soon enough, the company's secretary finally arrived and I stood up, the tiny smile on my face plunging as she handed over my folder."I'm sorry but we can't accept those photos,"I gaped, "What's wrong, this is how I normally bring my shots, and you guys used to accept them,""They are of lower quality, they are not technically sharp and polished. Perhaps the camera wasn't good enough. You can try some other company or come back with better photos next time, Thank you Mrs..." She paused, eyeing the ring on my finger."Mrs. Rodriguez," I resolved thoughtlessly and she gaped at me. "What?"She shook her head but inquired further. "Rodriguez, as in the Rodriguez Empire?" Hesitantly, I found myself nodding. "Is there something wrong?"She snickered. "Oh, there's nothing, can I please see the photos one more time, we might have made a misstep in acces
