PART 2Victor's PovI entered my dad's office around two in the morning, there was a dark walnut bookcase lining the entire left-hand wall. The leather sofa with a fur rug over the back and an Indian blanket draped over the arm. The far wall had a large fireplace and mantle dominating the centre, with bookshelves lining it on either side.He rarely calls me and if he did today, it simply means he has some business because Marcus Amuso is a man who only believes in one thing that's profit. On the mantle, two antique clocks and a painting of Leonardo Da Vinci hung elegantly. My dad was seated on his king-side chair busy reading some files, no wonder-working is his favourite hobby, he was tall with grey hair, steel-rimmed spectacles and a still handsome face, "You were looking for me Dad," It was then when he noticed my presence. He didn't even look up to acknowledge my presence. His attention was still on the papers in front of him."Victor, how long you'll take to

Olivia's Pov The constant ringing of my phone woke me up, rubbing my eyes I picked up the call, "hello who is this?" My voice was hoarse because I was in a deep slumber. "Mam, I have found the details of your sister," it took only seconds for my body to come to senses. "I'm listening," I said and he continued, "Mam, we have checked the records and it's correct that you had one and it matched with the report you sent me," "Okay, where are you now?" I asked sitting up in my bed. The sun's rays tried hard to enter the room through the curtains. "I'm at the hospital but there's something more I want to tell you," my ears stood up in attention to hear the piece of info he had for me. "What's that?" I asked looking for my slippers. "Mam, the thing is you two don't share the same father. Your sister's DNA doesn't match with your father," And if someone asks me what it feels to be electrocuted. I knew how it feels. My heartbeat stopped. Stomach twisted. Hands flew to the chest try

Olivia's PovLightning cracked the sky sending heaven's light through the storms. The roofs of the cars danced with spray. It sounded like the buzzing of angry bees. I was waiting, waiting for him to take me with him but he didn't move. He stood there in front of me the rain kept on pouring as if someone as opened the taps and forgotten to turn them off. My eyes stared at him with nothingness because at that time I felt nothing, I felt I was shallow from the inside.And he inched closer to me, the distance between us gone, "You know what you are asking me?" He wanted a confirmation, confirmation that I wanted him to take me wheresoever he wants to.And for fucks sake I had no doubts at that moment because I very well knew what I was doing, "I do,"And he knew when I say it, I meant it. His eyes met mine and at that moment a lot changed between us. His lips were so close to me as if they were ready to kiss me, the rain making them look sexier and I fucking knew how much I wanted to

The rain kept on falling and splashing against the glass wall and it was obvious for some reason that it was serene with him, he was giving me peace, the peace I always craved in my life. He was giving me a company, a company I always needed. Never did I imagine I'll be feeling this way with him. But at the back of my head was a thought, a thought it is short-lived, this night will be gone with the advent of the sun and I will never be seeing him like this again. He will never let me see the real he. For some reason I wanted to stay there, I sat back on the floor and he took a seat next to me silently, it was perfect the scene, this feeling, us. In the utter darkness, it felt perfect but it was an illusion even though we belonged in the same world I knew we weren't capable of giving each other something more. Something every lonely heart craves for. From the corner of my eyes, I noticed him, his two upper buttons were loose exposing his skin, I still remember how scars marred his

Olivia's PovThe Sun was sinking toward the horizon, the pitiless white ball now an angry orange. The shadows slipped up the rocks as though the world were drowning in darkness. The weather was contrary to yesterday. The only thing I was thankful to him for was for making sure that my car was parked in the parking as yesterday I left it at City Hospital. It took me almost one and a half hours to reach my mansion. The building stood tall like usual, the birds chirping and asking their babies to return to the nest. I slammed the door shut behind my back and slinging my tote bag on my shoulder stepped out of my car. Intuition is seeing with your soul and I knew by the time I stepped my foot out of the car something was up. Something was going to happen and I had a strong gut feeling about that. Plodding towards the entrance I noticed the guards staring in their attention position. It was off to see them like that but for some reason, I knew that something was wrong as if something happ
