"Bill..." Sounding like a ghost, Arabella's voice was so cold. "Bill...my love. Help me... Help me, please..." Arabella felt trapped in the unending darkness. She could not move nor cry. Not even her tears were moving. They were stuck inside her eyes. Her body was very light but numb like it could float in the air. She could not hear herself breathing nor feel her heartbeat.'Am I dead?'She had thought trying to figure out where she was in. The darkness was consistent. It had no plan to allow some light to enter like it was very oppressive. "Bill...help!" Struggling to make her voice come out, she spoke again even if she knew that it was too impossible that one could hear her. It was like Bill was the only person who could get her out of the darkness. Arabella was waiting...She was patiently waiting for him…Even if there was no hope that he would come...still, she was hoping for him to save her.Meanwhile, the commotion in the airport went out of control when Damien got a
The next morning, Arabella woke in a strange room again.Compared to the present condition, she felt her body was gaining back her strength.She seemed to already recover her energy and for her, it was a good thing.She heaved a sigh of relief.Her breathing was fine now but she wasn’t sure if she was still alive.The immense darkness was gone just like that.Her eyes moved trying to figure out something.Then she suddenly lifted her hand to touch her face.She needed to feel the pain to know she was still living.When she saw her arm, her eyes widened.It was the only time she noticed that she had a drip again.Arabella halted in fear as her eyes stared at the needle in her hand.She was quickly taken aback as her memory brought her back to the time when she was held kidnapped by Damien.Her memory in Damien’s room immediately flashed across her mind.She wracked her brain trying to remember everything at that time.She knew there was something she needed to remember.Something impor
“Bi… Bill?” She frowned deeply as she hissed apologetically.How she missed identifying him?Now she realized his kiss was the kiss she ever wanted.The best kiss she ever tasted.She felt the intense familiarity but of course, due to her situation, she had no time to dwell on the feeling, or else she would fall into its spell and would cause her to be caught by her abductor.Bill’s face was red due to the slap she gave.He looked at her unreadably.Arabella felt nervous about his stare at her.“Aren’t you tired of running away from me?” Bill suddenly asked in a strict tone.Judging from his stern expression, Arabella was sure that she was the only human who had hit him.Now, he was angry and maybe felt humiliated.His seriousness was bringing a subtle dark vibe into the area.This signaled Bill's men to get rid of the people around.This left them alone.“Oh… I’m sorry… I thought… oh, I just…” Arabella didn’t know what to say.Clearly, she misunderstood the intention of his men becau
In capital Z, SKY Corporation is the biggest company and known for its outstanding multi-billion dollars business contribution all over the world. It says "Going against SKY Corporation is like digging your own grave." Nobody dares to provoke. It's entitled the 'Ruthless King' of all business in the City. One can freely imagine to the scariest up to the wildest the 'man' behind the title. That is no other than Bill Sky. The brain behind the 'Ruthless King' corporation. The cold, domineering CEO of SKY Corporation. Being the 1st is the only term in his dictionary. Saying "NO" is an immortal sin to him and deserve to be punished. "YES" means winning and it is the only answer he wants to hear in this world that is why he is always leading on everything. Bill never loses in any business dealings. At the early aged of 5, he had already his own office in the company where his dad, Ed Sky, trained him to be the next successor. Bill Sky is the only child of his f
In Capital Z, only the most elite could afford the membership of ‘Luxury Bar’. It has the same size of a Five-Star hotel with complete high-end bar amenities and most expensive well- known liquors. They say that every member here has their own exclusive room and personal butlers. Its security is undeniably very tight. That’s why this is the favorite stomping ground of most VIPs. That included Bill Sky. His cousin Gab Kenley, is the owner of this bar. He’s one year younger than Bill and also very good looking. He’s the type of a playful boy next – door. Marcus Savor is his second cousin. He’s 3 years older than Bill. He also has good genes as him but Marcus had tied the knot last year by his parents’ demand. Savor Group is the leading hoteliers in Capital Z. The three cousins often meet here for a drink and shared personal and business insights. “What’s up man?” Gab cheerfully greeted Bill when they entered their VIP room.
After the incident last night, Arabella spent her day sleeping on her bed. She didn’t mind the time. Her body was still in a deep shocked. ‘That man is really a scumbag!’ she tightened her hug on her pillow while thinking of the arrogant man last night. She tried to remember his face but it’s like a puzzle with a missing piece. ‘Who is he?’ She was curious and at the same time anxious but she couldn’t figure it out. She didn’t even remember how she got out from that place. Jason Hansen, her ex-boyfriend contacted her last night to have a good closure. He dumped her like trash when his family knew the mess she went through. His ex-boyfriend is the CEO of Hansen Group next to SKY Corporation. He is famous in Capital Z with his stunning good look and powerful aura that one can be easily intimidated. Jason was her boyfriend for almost 5 years. They been classmates abroad. Their families were close ever since and he was her childhood sweetheart. Too bad, she neede
The text message: ‘I am sorry. Forget about the marriage, it will never happen in this lifetime. I cannot go on with this relationship anymore. Let’s end this relationship here. I wish you happiness in the future. I will appreciate if you will not bother me anymore. Good Bye. - Jason.’ She stopped trying to grasp her breath but there’s no air. It’s like the presence of oxygen inside her body was nowhere to found. In an instant, she felt like walking right into a booby-trap and got blown to smithereens. She must be dreaming. This is not true! Her tears finally came flowing like rain drops. She couldn’t help crying. Her heart was stabbed like a million times. It’s bleeding. It ached so much. She just wished to stop the pain. She just wished to end it right away. She wanted to shout. She wanted to cry. ‘Why all things happening to her? Why now? Why me?’ So many questions in her mind but the answers were to no avail. Her knees gave
A fresh start. That is all Arabella wanted. The turmoil shift of her life was all so sudden. She just remembered stepping out from the plane in Capital Z, she was full of excitement ‘Finally, I’m home!’ she smiles at the thought of it never knowing a big twist of fate awaits her. She was back to her reality, when her doorbell rang twice. ‘It must be Farrah!’ she thought running towards the door without seeing the peephole. No one knows where she lives, only Farrah comes in and out of her apartment. With her pajamas and scattered long smooth hair, she opened the door. “Good Afternoon my Lady!” a tall and dark figure with professional black suit respectfully welcomed her outside the door. He bent slight his upper body as a sign of respect. Together with two others, they were also wearing black suit with black leather shoes and behind them was a black shiny luxurious car. She was shocked. ‘Who are they?’ Are these men of my father?’ ‘Are
