"Talianna..."I clearly heard a deep voice whispering that woke me up. Slowly, I opened my eyes. Nabrel's face was the first thing I saw. My head was resting on his chest as his arms wrapped around me.It felt nothing but... peace and home. "Nabrel?" I whispered softly. I closed my eyes when his lips brushed gently against my forehead."Sleep more. But I have to go now, Talianna. Your dad might see me," he whispered huskily.I looked around my surrounding. I was in my room and it was still dark. No trace of any sunrays. I think it was still dawn.I looked at Nabrel. He slept here?"You... slept here? Beside me?" My cheeks turned red.Obviously!I can't... believe it. It felt like it was very impossible. That's what I feel as my mind processed this whole situation. He smiled a bit and gently caressed my hair. "How would I able to leave if you can't even unwrap yourself from me?" There was a hint of amusement in his voice. He watched me through hooded eyes which were sparkling with

After that argument with my Dad, I stayed in my room for hours. It feels so heavy to argue with him. That was the first time I've ever seen him so mad at me. He never raised his voice at me. Even if I almost maxed out my cards, he had never treated me like I'm a worthless daughter.. He lectures me about spending too much money but he never made me feel like I was nothing but a selfish daughter. Does being happy make us selfish? With Nabrel, I always feel the contentment and satisfaction. Even if it's just the two of us, my happiness is incomparable. I only find my peace in him. And I'm scare... I'm scared because I fell for him so hard to the point of doing anything just to be with him even if I have to neglect my own father.If we decide out of self-interest, is that a selfish act without considering other people, and you know that they won't be happy about your decision? Why do they always think that we are selfish just because we choose what makes up happy... just because we didn'

Days have passed and I could say that everything is going smoothly. Dad and I were okay now and... he had already gave his whole permission for me to continue my relationship with Nabrel. That's all I was asking for. That's all what I wanted to happen and now it's finally on my grasp. I don't know what made my father changed his perception about Nabrel and I but I couldn't ask for more...Last night, I invited Nabrel for dinner. Everything turned out well. Even it was just the three of us surrounding with a lot of foods on the table that my father asked our maids to cook, it filled my heart with so much happiness.Despite of Nabrel's nervousness, I could see that he was trying to get along with my Dad. When I told him that my dad was inviting him for dinner, he immediately refused. I do understand his reaction. But eventually, I was able to convince him."I just feel so ashamed, Talianna. I do not have anything to offer to your father. I still have to wait for my salary next week," he

"So, you're still seeing that fisherman, huh?"Fear crept in my skin when I heard Davien's cold voice. I was about to enter my room when I heard his deep voice behind me. I managed to put a strong facade before facing him. His eyes were cold and full of threat."Stop meddling in my life, Davien. I do not care about your opinion of me. You know what? Talking to you is just a waste of time. So, if you'll excuse me..." I uttered in a calm voice.I saw how rage doubled in his threatening eyes. I put on a much stronger facade. He wouldn't do anything to me. Dad was just in his room beside mine. In just one scream, the whole mansion will be alarmed.I turned my back on him but before I could even take a step, he aggressively grabbed my arm and forcefully faced me to him.I gasped, insides trembling. He grabbed my face in his hand, nails almost burying in my skin. Tears formed in the corner of my eyes when I saw how severe his wrath in his eyes. He leaned on my ear to whisper in a wrathful

"Are you happy now, huh?" My voice quivered painfully as I glared at him through my blurry eyes. "You almost killed him! You're a fucking demon! You and your father! You are a murderer!" I yelled with so much wrath.Davien clenched his jaw. He took a step towards me. I couldn't even feel any amount of fear despite of his face full of danger. My body was already numb with all of the things happened."You should be fucking grateful that I didn't kill him, Talianna. You know that it's fucking easy for me to bury a bullet between his eyes. But I didn't, right? So be grateful. That fisherman is worthless and you should remember that."I slapped him hard in the face. "I will fucking send you in prison! You will pay for every evil things you did! I won't let you get away with it! I will do everything to avenge Nabrel!"He just smirked at me, tilting his head. He gave me a mocking look, as if everything I have said was nonsense."You know you can't do that. Or you'd rather let him put in pris
