"What is happening?" I ask, voice lace with confusement.I am not someone who easily gets panic because I am used to experience dangerous situation where I need to decide quickly or else I die. But then, that was me when I am Herravie for sure Selena is not like Herravie. I need to act according to the situation we are facing and looking Sain right now, I think something happen."I need to bring you home" he replied as he walk fast, obviously rushing. I am having a hard time to cope up his pace. Our height difference is too obvious, his legs are long and strong. His huge footsteps is nothing compared to mine. If he is not holding my wrist, probably I was already left behind. I look back and there I saw Vencer following us while talking someone through his phone. They are all look bothered but at the same time calm. You could notice that they move fast but they are not panicking. It just prove that they are always ready in unexpected situation because they know what they are doing a

"This is not gonna happen again" A dangerous low-pitched voice rang around the whole room, it sounded heavy and deep as if it is controlled that made me frown and slowly open my eyes. The smell of antiseptic with undertones of artificial fragrance mix the scent of air freshener that instantly filled my nostril. I roam my eyes around and my eyes narrow, a bit irritated with the bright light coming from the open window. I don't need to ask where I am because I am fully awake right now although I felt a bit weak as if my strength was all drained out from my body. The huge hospital room feels suffocating because of the smell of fresh blood coming from the wound on the side of my forehead which I couldn't remember how I get it. The only thing I can recall is that fucking man who dare to cut my flesh without knowing my identity. I gritted my teeth silently and fisted my hand before I turn to the left side of the room. I wasn't surprise when I saw Sain facing his back at me while talking

I watch his back. He held the door open and cock his head to the side where he could see me. I stopped, a decade of emotion swirled up inside getting along with my heart that turn into a gooey mess. But the unexplainable emotion that kick in couldn't seen in my void expression face. I am good at that. I am good at pretending..."Be good, Little" "I will..." I assure him.My gaze remain on the closed door. I was just drag back to my reverie when I heard Mr. Castania intentionally cleared his throat to get my attention. "It seems like you two are getting along just fine" he commented. I mentally smack my head. I almost forgot that they were also inside the room. "Because that's what I need to do. We need to get along, I need to make him trust me so that I easily finished this mission" I replied."You need to be careful, Hija. You can't make a mistake that will lead him to doubt you" be warned."I know..."I took a breath and casually turn to look at them.I flash a weak smile. "I'm

"Selena!"I open my eyes and gasp for air. The house covered with fire disappear and the clean white painted ceiling filled my vision. Realization slowly kick in while breathing heavily. My muscles are still on tension and the fast palpitation of my heart reminds me that even I am no already in reality, my mind, my soul are still there, trap inside that nightmare. Past is chasing me. It never stop chasing me. I clutch my blanket as I felt the pinch of pain inside my chest. No matter how I tried to calm down and remind myself that everything will be alright after I avenge my family, hesitation and doubt still lurking on the corner of my head. I don't know where did it came from, but the uncertainty always makes me feel small, suffocated, and weak."Selena darling, are you alright?" I flinch when I felt a strong firm hand touch mine. My gaze turn to the direction of that husky baritone voice and I was greeted by his deep dark grey soulful eyes that glistening of something that I refus

I couldn't recall exactly how we made it home because the long drive was like in a daze. I couldn't remember anything honestly, maybe because my mind is just forcing my body that I am already fine but it was actually the opposite. Perhaps it was the effect of those freaking medicines that was directly injected to me that's why my body feels weak even more as if I was tortured for three days. By the time Sain guided me inside the house, relief instantly crept into me that lessen the exhaustion I've been experiencing. I take a deep, calming breath the moment we step in on the capacious living room. The familiar scent in the air filled my nostril and somehow, it makes me feel at ease."Welcome back home, Mia Signora" Eredia greeted me who I failed to notice when we enter. I flash a weak smile. "Thank you Erie" I saw her blushed because of my response and shyly smile at me. I mentally giggle because of that. I find this young woman adorable, for sure Enzo will like her because that guy
