THE NEXT DAY“Such a lovely house it is, Amy…Did you buy it??”My mother’s eyes beamed in happiness as she looked around our newly furnished home, the biggest house of ours till now.“Yes, Mother, it’s all ours…” I told her and her smile widened but then after a moment, it dropped.“Did I put you in trouble again for this?” My mother gestured towards the house and I knew well what her concerns were.Thankfully, this time I’m not in debt to someone, but I should never forget that this house was given to me by Derek’s generosity.A man who was so eager to get in my pants, who has now completely vanished from my life.Today, it was supposed to be him bringing my mother here while I would take care of a few things at the house, but he unexpectedly disappeared and never showed up on time.At that crucial moment, when I was completely unaware of Derek’s absence, Tom appeared as my knight again and brought Mother over here.Although, at first I didn’t want to share my new address with Tom,

AT THE WEEKEND“Mr. Garner is here.”My hand paused as Mary informed me about Tom’s arrival, so finally, he got the time to show up, but at least he was better than Derek who hasn’t shown up till now.I nodded indifferently, as I continued to dig the soil for my plants.“Gardening, hmm…” An intrigued voice came after a while, and a sneer left my mouth as I continued to dig more, imagining the hole as his and Derek’s grave.Two Morons of my Life !!“I know you would be mad…Something came up that night, Amy…” Tom spoke with a shrug and angrily I turned to him.“Some Thing ??” I asked with a murderous glare while pointing the shovel straight at his face.“Oh…Calm down, Amy…” With a defensive yet frightened gesture, Tom pushed down the shovel from my hand gently.“I am calmed, completely…” I said in offense while pointing up the shovel again at him.“Yeah, it looked so,” He pointed out sarcastically, making me boil in rage.“Tom…” Without thinking, I pressed the shovel at his chest and

In my blur vision, I saw a shadow roaming around my room, too quietly, too carefully.BLINK … BLINKClearing my sight, I tried to sit up and followed the shadow thinking it was Derek but as I reached the closet, I heard a loud THUDI paused, my stuff was being thrown, as though someone was looking for something.Instantly, my nerves hit and I rushed to get my phone. Clearly, it was not Derek but a thief.“AMY??”I was just halfway to my bed when I heard a scream, and then something hit my back brutally.THUDI fell on the bed with a strangled cry, as the next moment a shadow pressed me down on the bed while his gaze was fixed on the portrait gifted to me by Derek.His huge palm pressed on my face while the other pressed on my shoulder. I struggled, helpless under him when the cry came again.“Amy??”My struggle started to get worse when I felt the man’s hand loosening at my shoulder and reaching my neck, his fingers wrapped around my neck and then he gave me a squeeze.My eyes dilated

“Who’s going to fix all of this?” Amy gestured around her and I looked at her baffled.Fixing?Her clothes? Hair or her arousal?My mind was on her only when Amy stepped aside showing me the broken window, and her messy room.OH !!Finally, I opened my mouth in acknowledgment.She’s referring to last night’s incident, not our steamy session just now.VERY WELL !!“First of all, we need to check if something is missing…” I told her as I started to inspect the things one by one.“Derek… I think my necklace is missing…” Amy let out a cry and immediately I headed to the closest to check on her.“Which necklace?”At my question, Amy rolled her eyes and then answered, “The one you gave me, the one I was wearing in the portrait outside.”“Why would someone take that??” I murmured to myself.I don’t think it was anything that would harm Amy, why would someone take that away?“Anything else was taken?” I asked Amy and she shook her head immediately.“Nothing except for this…”“Hmm…” I was lost

Swiftly, Derek put me down and strode towards the door with a gesture of not following him at all.But being a stubborn woman, I denied his silent command and followed him closely.Derek’s eyes glowered at me silently, knowing that I won’t be obedient this time, he sighed in surrender and continued his walk towards the outside.On tiptoes we reached outside and noticed a shadow in the security room, is someone again trying to block the cameras?My first instinct was fright, the marks on my neck were still afresh.Daily a new intruder?Is someone that desperate to get me?I was shaken by the dread when silently Derek moved inside the room and then I heard a loud THUD.Panicked, I rushed inside to find Derek standing over the man who doesn’t look familiar to me at all.“Who sent you?” Derek asked loud and clear.“Officer Dave,” The man cried out as Derek pressed his foot more forcefully into his shoulder.“Liar…” Derek spat while continuing to torture him when the man cried out again, “
