24. Betrayal
"Mina, Darling," My Mom said, a tear escaped my eyes as I felt her warm embracing me. I close my eyes and hug her back. I opened my eyes and saw her-- The woman who once was Corro's wife, a bitter pang of emotion ripped into me as I look at her, we had the same face, from eyes to lips. I shrug the thought off and smiled a little at her. She slowly walks near us with tears in her eyes. I let go of our Mother as I waited for her to come near us.
"Mina," She whispered, a bitterness was gone off my thought once her gentle hand caress mine, I close my eyes and look at her, she then caress my cheeks with her either hand biting her lips trying to suppress a sob. "Roana, I'm sorry," I said, sobbing as I pulled her close into a hug.
"I'm sorry, forgive me," I whispered, stroking her back gently while crying on her shoulder, she hushes me and gently pats my back, comforting me. I push her back gently and look at her f

I groaned annoyingly as I look at my reflection in the mirror, I heard my sister chuckled, I saw her reflection on the mirror looking lovely on her silk knee-length slit red gown. She shakes her head as she walks near me still smiling. "What?" I ask her, she smiled and brings both of her hands to my cheeks, caressing them while looking intently into my eyes. "I do adore you, Mina, and thank you for fighting for us," She sincerely said, I smiled and bring my hands to her shoulders stroking them gently and pat her back. "Of course, I would do that without blinking an eye I promise to keep you both safe," I whispered and hug her.

I push her a little and smiled. "Now, we

"Hold him," I can hear the voices around me, I close my eyes as the blindfold was lifted off my face, trying to get used to the light I blink my eyes a few times and slowly opened it after. I saw the man who drags me far from Mina last week. I clearly remember how it happened, how she smiled at me when she stabs me, on how she furiously screamed in anger holding a gun-- she was gone, the Mina I once love-- I don't clearly remember how or what happened but all I know is I killed her child and lied to her and as Henry secretly protected all of them it was their plan--- I clenched my fist, as I tried to escape off this chain in my wrists.

"Leave us alone," I ordered my men, I then removed the gloves on my hand as I stare at him-- helplessly lying on the ground, unable to move. I croaked my neck to the side as I scan his body his shirt was full of bloodstains from his wounds. I crinkled my nose as I can smell the dried blood and fresh blood from him."Livv Timothy Markovs," Saying his name out loud, I then reach for the dagger place on the suitcase above the table, playing it with my finger. "You had no idea, do you?" I asked, mocking and laugh a little as I look at the dagger in my hand."You have to be careful who to trust," I said, the side of his lips tugs upward as he laughs mocking my question, I look at him as he cough in blood, raise his gaze to me and look me directly in the eyes."Funny to say that you did trust me too- once, Mina," he said, coughing between every word. I raise my brow as I saw him struggling with his every word but m

It's been 6 years since I left home and live here peacefully, I still visit them often and do my responsibilities but I want my life here away from the crowd, the suffocating life of the city tires me.

I am listening to his continued nagging. I rolled my eyes and lean on the sofa."How will I explain to Livv that you almost got killed!" Henry, my cousin said as he strokes his hair pacing back and forth. I chuckled at his hysteric nagging and looked at my bruises which I got from disobeying his command."It's a clear order, Roanna I just said don't leave my sight and behave but what did you do? You got distracted by just seeing a stray cat!" He added, probably not amaze on what's the reason why I nearly got killed by those men who chased me after they've seen my face."Hey! The cat is out of here! She's adorable and I want to adopt her." I dearly said as I stared at the cat who is now sleeping on the bed.
