"Charles," Clara yelled banging on the door, how had she been so dumb to not see that he had been playing her, she got carried away by his looks and thought he would really help her and disobey Alex's order. "Charles," she yelled again banging the door, "you fucking piece of shit," she cursed. "Let me guess, he locked you up somewhere," Hardin voice finally came on, he had been listening in on their conversation and trying to picture what was going on between them, he was surprised that Clara had it in her to seduce someone. He always suspected her to be a fiesty girl, but listening to it first hand was interesting to him. He had wanted to warn her against it but he could tell she was finding it difficult to concentrate on listening to him and doing as she pleased. "The crazy bastard," Clara cursed. "Is it an open space?""It's a basement leading somewhere, hopefully not to my death," Clara rolled her eyes angrily as she turned around going down the stairs carefully. She had left

Octavia and Clara looked at each other hesitantly, wondering if they should risk crawling through it. The basement had turned out to be a dead end and this could also be one but with no other options available to them, they had to decide quickly."So?" Hardin voice came up again this time worried, Clara knew better this time, she knew Hardin wasn't bothered about her but Octavia safety and what Keir would do if Octavia wasn't out of there as soon as possible."It's a tunnel, dark as hell," Clara said turning her phone torchlight on while Octavia rushed to get the candle on the nightstand that was already lit."This is our only option," Octavia said."You have to take it, it might lead to somewhere safe," Hardin said. "Is anywhere safe in this house?" Clara rolled her eyes staring at Octavia who was already figuring who was talking to, it wasn't Keir, it was Hardin. "Shall we?" Clara added accepting her fate. They peered inside and noticed it was a tunnel. Without hesitation, they go

"That sounds quite detailed," Charles chuckled. "The door would have been locked when you got here and you would be forced to go back but I secretly got the key....so there is nobody waiting to take you back and lock you up.""I don't believe you.""I don't think we have time to be chit chatting, I will rather go out this door than back into that tunnel," Octavia said. She had been locked up for close to three days or so, she wasn't exactly keeping track of time but she didn't want to spend one more second in that basement or Alex's room. "Good choice," Charles said, opening the door for them."We should make a run for it," Clara whispered to Octavia, she didn't trust Charles to keep to his word, this for all they knew could be one of his tricks yet again.Octavia stared at Clara and like they could read minds they both dashed out through the door as fast as their legs could carry them leaving Charles chuckling behind them as he watched them run down the hallway and out the building.

Hardin had gone to check on her later on but came back with a handprint on his face. He was about to explain what had happened when he got a call from James that there was an explosion and Keir was badly injured. She didn't know how severe the injuries were until she saw Keir, her heart sank instantly. He was soaked in his own blood, the side of his head cut wide open with blood dripping on his face making him unrecognizable. It was an awful sight to behold."We will take it from here Ma'am," the nurses said, pulling her hand

"My love!!" Octavia gasped rushing to his side immediately hugging him tightly."Who are you?" Keir asked shoving her off him with a puzzled look on his face. He stared at Hardin and June then back at Octavia who already had tears streaming down her eyes as she reached out to touch his face. "Keir?!" she muttered looking into his eyes, did he not remember her? How could he forget her just like that? This was all her fault, she should have listened to him when he wanted to explain things to her. She suddenly noticed something in the way Keir was looking at her, his eyes seemed softer and then she saw it."I don't-" Keir tried to protest as a slap fell on his face, his head swung to the side from the slap as he brought his hand to his face eyes widened. Octavia's action also surprised June, "What are you doing?" June yelled. "Don't you ever try that stupid stunt with me?" Octavia yelled at Keir. "Ouch," Keir frowned turning his head to stare at her. "A kiss would have been better,"

June remained unfazed by his words, "What if I don't want you?""We can't keep going in circles, how about we start all over again? Go on a proper date, I feel like I might have come too strong on you and given you doubts.""I am too tired for a date, right now I just need to freshen up and rest," June replied. "You need to rest, I am talking about tomorrow," Hardin pressed on. "Or next - or a date of your choice.""You ain't giving up on your pursuit huh?" June sighed. "No, I want you and I am ready to do anything to make you see that," Hardin said."Fine," June shook her head, she turned to stare at him even though his eyes were on the road. "We could have a date, next week Friday.""Thursday? I know you are free on Thursday.""You didn't just say that? Fine, Thursday but if we are starting again you need to stop spying on me. I don't find it to be a romantic gesture or whatever you think it is," June rolled her eyes. She didn't like the idea of being watched and Hardin wasn't ev

After the end of the day June drove home and freshened up, she lay in bed about to sleep when she decided to check her phone to see if Hardin had messaged her regarding their date tomorrow. He had been calling and dropping messages about the date but today he didn't even call or message her, she opened her messages contemplating if she should message him or not.She took a deep breath and decided to message him regarding their date. [Hi, I just thought to check up on you. I guess you must be occupied with work, can't wait to see you tomorrow.]She read the message in her head and shook her head deleting some words off it that sounded like she was being too clingy.[Hi, just checking on you. See you tomorrow, goodnight.]She pressed sent and returned the phone to her drawer as she closed her eyes to sleep but as she drifted slowly in dreamland, she dreamt of Hardin. In her dream, Hardin walked into her room wearing his only briefs as she approached her on the bed, she stared at his

June left the restaurant immediately after getting the text message, it was already late and she felt disoriented by the message, she was about to start the car when she got another text. She checked her phone quickly wondering if it was from Hardin but it was from Octavia. [I thought to check on you, how is it going?] [Hardin is nothing but a jerk.] She replied switching off her phone afterward, she knew if she didn't Octavia's call would follow next and she wasn't in the mood to pick up calls right now. How could Hardin do something like this to her? If he knew he wasn't coming, he could have just said so rather than making her waste her time in that restaurant looking like a fool. The waiter didn't need to say anything but she could see it in his eyes that he suspected Hardin wasn't going to show up, maybe this wasn't his fault but hers. Wasn't this what she wanted? For him to stop chasing after her like a mad dog. Yet, it didn't sit well with her as she thought about it. Sh

"Hey, is he awake now?" June asked as she stepped into the front desk to find Octavia, Keir, and an elderly lady sited. Octavia rose to her feet to hug her, "No, he is still unstable.""Oh," June frowned. While driving to the hospital, the anger she had once felt for Hardin about standing her up at the restaurant and the marriage news washed away when Octavia messaged her that the doctor just told them that Hardin was still unstable. "This is Hardin's mum, Mrs. Scotts but we call her Jules," Octavia smiled."So sorry Ma," June said to Mrs. Scott, it was the first time she was meeting Hardin's mother, merely looking at the woman she could see where Hardin had gotten his looks and eyes from."Thank you," Mrs. Scott nodded her head."Come," Octavia motioned for June to sit next to Keir and her. "Hey," she said to Keir. "He will be fine," Keir reassured her noticing the gloomy look on her face as she sat down. "I hope so, how did the accident...""Oh, Hardin," a loud cry suddenly int

"It's fine, you should get some rest," June's lips curled into a smile as she stared at him but Hardin didn't seem satisfied by her answer. "June I.." Hardin groaned as his hand touched his stomach."You should rest," Emma interrupted him. "Let him rest," she said removing June's hand from Hardin and placing hers in his. Hardin stared at the both of them, he wanted to say something to June but he felt himself blacking out as he fell into an unconscious state. "We should all let him rest," Mrs. Scott suggested staring at her son. "Emma will you be able to stay here while I go home to sort out some things, the doctor said he might not be able to use his legs so I want him to be comfortable.""Of course Mum, you know I will without you asking me to," Emma smiled."Thank you," Mrs. Scott nodded. "Thank you all for coming to see him," she said to Keir, Octavia and June. "He is our friend, it's the least we can do," Keir replied. "June should also stay back since he requested to see her
