You should see the surprise on Niles’ face when Andrew got knocked out only for I to appear in his line of view.
“Reina,” his eyes widened, “I thought you were -“
“Think no more,” I grabbed his hair, pulled him closer, and kissed him as passionately as I could. The thought of losing him scared me so much that I’ll rather die with him. I tasted blood from his lips, Andrew must have hurt him there.
When we separated for air, Niles looked me straight in the eyes, searching for something.
“Did you recover your memories?” He asked, awe still plastered on his face.
“No,” I replied, “But I think I’m hopelessly in love with you,”
“Huh?”
“I love you, Niles,” I confessed, a weight being lifted off my chest.
“Tell me you didn’t fall for me a second time,” He smiled, his sexy bruised lips kinked to the side.
“I think I did,” I smiled back at him.
“I guess you can’t resist my charm,” He flirted with me.
“Don’t get too cocky, Niles,” I told him, my eyes moving to the binds on his wrist, “I need to get you out of these,”
“You can’t sweetheart,”
“I don’t need that kind of negativity, Niles, especially from someone who always knows a way out of every problem,” I said, checking how to hack them
“You give me too much credit,” Niles chuckled, “But this is the truth this time: This place is a fortress, even if you get me out of these binds, we won’t make it out of here…” There was a sudden commotion, “And speaking of which,”
That comment made me turn around to see that my father has arrived here with his men. Oh no.
“Reina,” Niles called me as I hastily searched for a way to release him.
“Reina,” He called again.
“No, just give me a bit of time. I can just -“
“Reina dear, come here,” I heard my father’s taut voice, he was on the verge of exploding.
I shook my head stubbornly, pulling on the chains all to no avail. This was frustrating! And Niles added to that by saying, “Go with your father,”
“Shut up, you’re talking bullshit. I’m busting you out of here,” I said, but inwardly knew it was impossible. Even if I got him out of those restraints, there was no hell on earth father would let us leave without a fight – which he would win of course.
Fresh tears fell from my eyes, I’ve never felt as helpless as I felt now except that time I felt off the bridge – that was the only memory I never lost for once.
“Go with your father, I’ll be fine,” Niles told me as I cried on his chest. We just reunited with each other, why can’t everyone just let us be.
The anger and the frustration added, made me kiss him again, this time with heated intensity.
I rested my forehead against his when Niles abruptly mumbled, “Call Eden,”
My eyes twitched, what did he just say?
“Call Eden,” He whispered once more, “He’ll know what to do. Now, go,”
I pretended not to have heard what he said so as not to arouse suspicion from my father who had his eyes trained on us.
I went back to him, saying sarcastically “Hallelujah, you won,”
Sakuzi simply gestured to the man by his side, who came up to me and grabbed me roughly
“What the hell are you doing?! ” I was flustered as he began to search me.
“Take every electronic gadget she has on her and make sure she doesn’t get her hands on one. Then lock her up in her room, ensure she doesn’t leave till we’re done with this bastard,” My father instructed.
And just like that, I was stripped of my phone that could get me the help I wanted.
“Niles! “I called him but he wasn’t in the position to help me.
They dragged me into my room and locked me up. I banged and banged against my door but they didn’t open up. I was worked up for about an hour before I decided to calm down and think. Getting angry would not solve my problem and I refuse to let my father maltreat Niles.
Suddenly, it clinked in my head: Ailee and Allen.
“Hey!” I banged hard on the door.
“What is it?” I heard the gruff voice of whoever was stationed outside my door.
“I need to see my kids, “I said to him.
“I’m sorry but they gave us no instructions regarding them hence I can’t grant that, “
“You have me locked up, the least you can do is let me see my children and make sure they’re okay! Their father is standing helpless in that holding cell and I’m running out of my mind with anxiety, I need to see my children before I go crazy. I’m so tired and scared,” I intentionally let my voice crack at the end, sniffing and making it so emotional – thanks to whoever invented acting.
I didn’t hear any reply from the guard for about a minute until he said,” Fine, you’d see them but for just ten minutes,”
“Alright, thank you so much, I’ll forever remember this,” My voice sounded like I was crying when in reality, I had a smirk on. I just hope the kids don’t fail my expectations.

“Did you know that our father’s here?” Ailee barged into Allen’s room, closing the door hard.
