WEIGHING OPTIONS

Miriam’s POV“You can’t go see her. It’s not safe!” Sara continued nagging me and I sighed.“Who said anything about going to see her?”“Then where are you going this early in the morning?” She crossed her hands across her chest.“I’m going to see my husband. I haven’t been there in a while.”“Hmm. Okay so explain to me why you were talking to Janet?”“How did you even hear that? I thought you were asleep.”“When you came down last night to tuck me in, I woke up and I couldn’t sleep back again. I overheard your conversation.”I raised my eyebrow questioningly. “You were eavesdropping?”“I didn’t mean to. I’m doing all of this for you. Janet is not someone you should trust. She is crazy!” her voice was going up now.“Sara, you need to calm down. I’m not doing anything that would implicate me. Besides, shouldn’t you be getting ready for work?”“I am but I need to make sure that you eat some breakfast and take your vitamins.” She placed a plate of eggs in front of me.“I’m still not sure

A DATE WITH THE DEVIL

Miriam’s POV“Well, we can schedule you for an appointment next week, if that’s what you want.”“Yes, it is. Thank you but I've made my decision.”I know that I sounded a bit defensive, but I needed the message to be clear to her. I didn’t want her to argue or try to convince me otherwise.“Just come back here next week and we can get it done for you.”“Alright.”I was about to leave when someone barged into the room. It was Elizabeth. I didn’t realize when I groaned out loud at her presence.“What are you doing here Elizabeth?”“Is that how you talk to your mother-in-law?” She retorted.“Well, I would have been a lot more polite if you hadn’t come to my house and threatened me.”“I didn’t threaten you. I was only doing what’s best for you.”“How do you know what’s best for me? I just met you!” I exclaimed and she sighed loudly.“I know your hormones are acting all up right now but you have to understand that I’m not your enemy…”I cut her off before she could finish her sentence. “No

NEGLECTED HUSBAND

Janet’s POVJero was getting really aggressive with me these days. Everyday, he kept pressuring me for updates on Miriam. It was pure torture, having to pretend that I wanted her around when I hated her guts.“Haven’t you gotten any information?” He growled at me.“Not yet. She's not being very forthcoming. I told you already. We’re not exactly friends. It’s going to take more time for her to come around.”Why was it hard for him to understand that if I tried to rush the relationship, Miriam would suspect me. I mean, she was already very skeptical, that would just make her more suspicious.“Well, I don’t care. Do what you have to do to get her to cooperate. My boss doesn’t have time for all of this.” He grabbed my wrist roughly.“Hey, stop. You’re hurting me,” I complained but he ignored me.“I need you to wear her down and get her to go out with you. After your day, follow her back home. That’s the easiest way to find out where she lives. As soon as you do that, let me know.”He let

OPEN YOUR EYES

Janet’s POVI woke up in the hospital. At first, the details of how I got there were hazy. Then I started to remember. William was in bed with another woman. I felt the pain of his betrayal in my chest. How could he do that? I have been good to him even with everything he did in the past. Suddenly, I remembered that I had been bleeding. Oh my God. What if I had lost the baby?“You’re awake!” I heard his voice before I saw his stupid face.“William. I swear to God, if you take one more step towards me, I’m going to kill you.”“Just try to calm down…”“Calm down? You had the nerve to bring in another woman into our home. That bitch pushed me and now…”I couldn’t even say the words out loud. The idea of losing the unborn child that I had to love and care for was scary.“The baby is okay, Janet…if that’s what you’re worried about.” He put his hands in his pocket awkwardly.“I want to speak to a doctor.” I began pressing the button beside me aggressively.“Please, can you just…”A nurse c

THE SECRET IS OUT

Miriam’s POV“Is it me or do you seem happy about something?” Sara asked.We were in the kitchen, preparing dinner and she kept looking at me from afar.“I don’t know what you’re talking about.” I shrugged as I chopped up the carrots.“You’re up to no good and I can tell.”How does she know me so well? My only hope was that she wouldn’t guess what I was about to do until after I was done with it. I knew she would try to convince me not to go through with the abortion but it was too late for that anyway.“I think you’re just imagining things. I am not happy because there’s really nothing to smile about. My life is in shambles right now.”“I know but just try to look on the bright side.” She came closer to me.“Trust me, Sara. I’ve thought about it and there’s no bright side in this.”“Lazar may not be here right now but he left you a part of him. Are you just going to flush that part away?”She knew already. “I haven’t decided yet. So, don’t jump to conclusions.”“Don’t lie to me, Miri

NO LONGER CLOSE

Sara’s POVI can’t believe my best friend! She’s being completely crazy! It’s like I don’t even know her anymore. I felt seriously betrayed but I knew I needed to focus on myself.There was a ton of work to be done and I was left handling it all by myself. “Miss, is there anything you need?” My assistant popped her head into my office.“No, nothing right now. Just finish those scores I asked you to run.”“Okay, I’ll do that.” She left me alone and I faced my computer.I typed some more but I was distracted. My mind was reeling from what happened last night. Miriam was someone that I cared about a lot. As mad as I was, I was also quite hurt. This wasn’t what I pictured our life to be like. I thought we were going to have a nice and happy adult life. Not this.She was in mortal danger with a huge target on her back. Instead of her to play it safe and be careful, here she was, going around town with her number one hater. Even the blind could tell that Janet was only pretending. It was o

THE TORTURE BEGINS

Miriam’s POVIn all the time that I had been kidnapped, this was the roughest. I was handled really badly by the men who took me to Trevor’s warehouse. I was shouted at and threatened.“If you don’t stop crying, I will rip out your tongue!” One big, scary looking guy yelled. I swallowed my cry immediately.“Why don’t we just drug her?” Another one said. He had a disgusting looking scar on his right cheek.“Because the boss asked us not to, you dimwit!”“So, we’re just going to allow her keep making noise? She’s going to alarm the entire street!”“No one can find us here. Even if she shouts all she wants.”I whimpered when I heard that. It was true because even though I had been blindfolded all through the journey, it had taken a very long time before we arrived at our destination. How on earth was anybody going to find me?“Here, duct tape her mouth!” He passed some duct tape over to the big guy who proceeded to seal my mouth shut.I don’t know how long it was but Trevor came into the

STRONG BOND

Serena’s POVMother was yet to come back from the hospital and I was starting to get worried. I called her several times, but she wasn’t picking up. I tried Rosodov again.“I don’t know where your mother is. I told you, once I find out, I’ll tell you!” He cut the the call before I could say anything else.He has been so busy these days, juggling everything since my brother was admitted. Everything literally pisses him off.For some reason, I was so restless but I couldn’t put my finger on the reason. It was almost as if something ominous was about to happen.I thumbed through my phone, looking for who to talk to. I settled on Miriam. Even though my mother was currrently angry at her, I still had a soft spot towards her. We hadn’t even spoken or seen each other in a while.Her phone rang and rang but there was no response. I started becoming scared. I didn’t know what else to do. Lazar was always the one in charge in situations like this.“I should go see her at home,” I muttered to my

AT ALERT

Serena’s POVMy mother sprung into action immediately we confirmed that Miriam had been taken. The men that we sent over to the house reported that the security at Miriam’s house were all dead and she was missing.“How did this happen?” I asked my mother on the car ride over. “The security is supposed to be tight over there.”“It was obviously breached, Serena. That’s why you have to stay by my side at all times. If I tell you to stay put, you stay put. It’s for your own good.”“Where were you this morning? I kept calling you, but you didn’t pick.”“I was busy,” She said vaguely.“Busy with what, Mom?”Her eyes darted around the vehicle, as if someone was going to run away with the information she was about to divulge. The next thing I know she’s leaning towards me and whispering into my ear.“I don’t want anybody to know about this but I was at the hospital today and I had your brother moved to a better place.”“A better place?” I whispered in her own ear. “Does this new place have a

A RISKY PLAN

Miriam’s POVI stayed with Anita for the next 24 hours. I couldn’t leave her side. I knew Trevor would eat me alive if we crossed paths in this building. Luckily for me, she didn’t want to leave me alone as well.“Don’t worry, as long as I’m here. I won’t let him touch you.”“Thank you so much. Thank you for being so good to me.”“Shh. You don’t have to thank me for anything. I’m just paying my dues. You were ready to save me when Trevor was after me so why can’t I do the same to you?”“I know, but we were unsuccessful. I feel so bad for escaping and we all left you behind that day.”“It’s not your fault. Besides, you did your best. It was only a matter of time after all before he caught up with me. I’ve been running for years and I guess it was time I finally faced the music.”“Is he hurting you as well?” I asked her quietly still traumatized from the beating he gave me.“No, not at all. I’m surprised about that as well. He has always been so violent and I thought he was going to put
