“You animal!”
It’s confirmed, she’s Maria.
“I’m driving, Maria. So unless you want us to have an accident, you can go ahead and distract me,” I told her while she glared at me.
“You’re crazy in the head. I told you I’m not Maria!” She insisted, “Now, unhand me this instant!” She almost pushed her chained hands to my face.
“Relax, I’m not kidnapping you -“
“You just took me without my consent, what’s it called? Adultnapping?” she sassed without letting me finish my statement.
“Relax, Maria, I’m not a bad person- which you know,” I said pointedly, catching her expression and had to say, she was good in this game of pretense.
“I know nothing about you aside from what I’ve read in the tabloids and seen on the internet. Niles Sparks, the legendary casanova- don’t you think for one moment that I’ll fall for your pathetic tricks,” she said, her words dripping with revulsion with a hint of anger.
It made me wonder, even if she isn’t Maria – which she is- why did she hate me so much? Why was she so intent on judging me with my past mistakes and behavior. I wasn’t that same Niles, I’ve changed.
She kept making snide remarks but I ignored her, the comment earlier had already dampened my mood. I’ll just open her eyes then with evidence.
We arrived at her place in an hour and not once did she shut her mouth up. I knew what she was doing, trying to get me angry so I could make mistakes. Once emotional, it was easy to prevail over an enemy. How did she even learn that tactics – there was more to the current Maria than I know.
“Don’t you dare touch me or I’ll murder you once I’m out of these,” she squirmed as I dragged her out of the car.
“Sure,” I treated her words like air, pulling her out of the car.
She looked around uneasily before catching a passerby and yelled, “Help me! This man wants to rape me!”
I scowled when the man who had almost passed us by, retraced his step and began to walk in our direction. Seriously, some people wouldn’t mind their business.
At once, I pressed Maria against the body of the car, facing her in such a way that her restrained hands were hidden from view by my body just as the man asked, “Is anything the matter?”
He scrutinized us.
“Ye-“
“We’re just couples having a minor fight, be on your way and mind your business,” the dismissal in my tone was obvious.
Yet, this busy body didn’t heed my advice, facing the girl instead and asked, “Is what he said true?”
As expected, the twinkle in her eyes told me she was going to jump at that chance and ditch me.
But just as she opened her mouth to contradict my words. I grabbed her head and kissed her instantly, sliding my tongue into the delicate muscles of her mouth as her eyes widened as usual.
I felt her struggle but her hands were constrained by the cuffs, making her strive not much of a difference, added to the fact my hands encompassed her.
There was no room for resistance; by the time my mouth moved against her, she yielded to me, kissing me with the same fervor as I imagined Maria would.
By the time I was done with her, the busybody was no way to be found and Maria was glaring at me – the intensity increased – but I didn’t care. She can hate me all she wants but I’m not going to lose her this time.
“I hate you,” She confessed with labored breath.
“No, honey, you love me-“
“In your dreams,”
“You’re just so adamant on not admitting it,”
“I don’t and would never love a player like you!”
My countenance changed, this was the umpteenth time she called me that already. Why was the girl so insistent that I’m a player when she claimed she hardly knew me? I smelt foul play at work.
“Who rescued you from that fall off the bridge?” I asked her without warning.
She went pale.
Maria’s POV
Something was not right. Niles’ actions so far began to make me question everything I’ve been told by my father and everyone around me.
Flashback:
“Remind me once more who you said is their father?” I asked, stroking the bump on my stomach. I could feel them moving and it was the most wonderful feeling. I still couldn’t believe it, I was bringing in two wonderful creatures into this world.
It’s been five months already since I awoke from my coma and had to go through strict surveillance. I encountered some internal body damages from that fall off the bridge which would have claimed the life of the babies in my womb, yet they survived.
Doctors claim the gods were watching over me hence a miracle I was still alive till now. But then, carrying the babies to the ninth month and giving birth to them the natural way would put an end to my life, if not theirs too. I had to be operated on earlier than scheduled – my body was at the moment, too frail to carry twins.
“As I’ve said times without number, his name is Niles Sparks,” reminded Father, who was behind me with his hands resting on my wheelchair as I took in the wildlife scene from the balcony.
I was being treated at home and vigorous movements were not advised. Moreover, my father would not let my feet touch the ground for any reason- he had maids attending to my every need.
When I first awoke with no recollection of who I was, I was quite cautious around him even if he claimed to be my father. But that was until a DNA test was drawn confirming our blood relationship, added to his love towards me – even though it could be annoying sometimes.
I could now trust him with my life, knowing he had my back. Moreover, he was the one who rescued me from that dangerous fall- as I’ve been told – and gave me this new life as Princess Reina Armani Sakuzi – princess of the Sakuzi Clan.
“How did we meet?” This was the first time I was asking for details about that man. The other times I simply asked for his name and let it go since I was more immersed with my babies and the recovery process.
“I don’t know about that but it’s a known fact you worked as a nanny for him and that was where he seduced you,” Father answered as requested.
I gulped, “Seduced me?”
“Yes, Princess,” He came to sit on the bench beside me, “You see, Niles Sparks is a very handsome man who had women throwing themselves at him without putting an effort. So he made it a quest to conquer you too because you were different from the ones he’s encountered so far,”
I clenched my fist, the nerve of the bastard, how was I so foolish to fall for someone like that.
Father went on, “So he went for you even when he had a girlfriend, Christina Devon – she was your arch-enemy,” he supported it with evidence from his phone.
