When the jet landed, Sia was already asleep and Emiliano was done with his work. He knew he had two options, either to wake her up or carry her. Of course, he preferred not to wake her up because he knew just how much she loved taking her beauty sleep, but at the same time he knew she was angry with him. He had seen how she told him not to touch her in any way, and hence he was stuck.
“What to do?”he muttered to himself as he watched Sia sleeping peacefully, she was beautiful, nothing like he had ever seen before. Emiliano’s gaze softened as he extended his arm, trying to caress her beautiful face. His heart churned he hated the fact that she was so close to her, and he couldn’t touch her, to feel her and embrace her holding her in his arms till he was satisfied.
“Sir”someone called him but Emiliano muttered a ‘shh’ and waved the person away, and he prepared to pick his wife up, but immediately his cold hands connected with her skin Sia’s eyes flew open.
“Don’t”she mumbled coldly and pushed him away and sat up as she fixed her hair.
“I didn’t want… to disturb you… that’s why”he murmured awkwardly but since didn’t even pay attention to him as she crawled from her comfortable seat and stepped her feet down.
Sia wasn’t in the mood, and hence they left the jet, and they found two cars waiting for them. Emiliano wasn’t bothered because he knew she needed some time to cool down, and therefore they entered the car. Just like his granny had said, the hotel was ready for them.
Sia had her head looking out the window admiring the beautiful city; however, all of it seemed dull to her. She felt dead inside she found no fun in everything, all she wanted was to be alone.
“Welcome sir and madam, everything is ready I’m Lynn, and I’ll be attending to you”a petite lady dressed in a black dress reaching just before her knees with her brown blonde hair tied in and up do said with a smile. Sia scanned her surrounding, and the place was gorgeous, the building itself was large, and she knew it was no ordinary place even the people she was seeing around looked high class.
“Thanks a lot… can you kindly direct us to our suite”sia stepped forward and said in a commanding tone and the lady nodded while Emiliano looked around.
“Right this way please”Lynn said and ushered them to the private Elevator which led to their suite? Lynn knew how important the next guest were just as her boss directed there she didn’t want them to feel unwelcome.
The elevator stopped and both Sia and Emiliano stepped out and found themselves somewhere private, sia was somehow happy because she wanted peace and quiet and their suite was the only one in that floor.
“We have doubled security and madam if you need anything don’t hesitate to call me… later on, we are going to have a welcoming dinner gathering because most of our guests are on a honeymoon… and we’ll be happy if you attend”Lynn said professionally.
“Okay”it was sia who replied since Emiliano had already gone inside. Lynn bowed in respect and left from there while Sia sighed and walked in.
“Well there’s only one bedroom so…” Emiliano said as soon as sia entered their suite, and it was beautiful, everything were nicely arranged from the furniture to the living room and everything was top-notch.
“I’ll take the couch”she simply replied and walked past him but Emiliano grabbed her by the arm and pulled her back as he slammed her against the wall but not so much.
“Let me go”sia tried to shrug him off but Emiliano tightened his grip on her.
“I understand how you are feeling but tell me… how long will you ignore me huh”he murmured as he moved closer to her, their eyes met but sia didn’t show any love or affection.
“I don’t want you anywhere near me… get that through your head”sia was clear with her words, her eyes showed nothing but anger and her actions proved just how irritated she was with his presence.
“You can pretend all you want but we both know what you feel for me hasn’t changed Sia… your heart belongs to me… your love is mine… you can’t deny that”he was getting desperate and agitated, he couldn’t take it anymore and her actions towards him was something which was hurting him.
“Once belonged to you… but not anymore… I feel nothing for you because you killed every last drop of love I had for you… once you break something… you can’t fix it, and you ruined your chances Emiliano”she said with all the courage she could gather not wanting to break down and cry, but he was making it impossible for her, seeing him then picturing Tara in his arms hurt her so much. Emiliano was left speechless as he gazed in her orbs seeking the same glimpse of affection that once glimmered in her eyes,, but he found nothing but coldness. Sia didn’t waste time as she pushed him away and stormed towards the bedroom, leaving him feeling weak.
“Please Sia”he mumbled, but the woman was already out of sight.

Back in Rhea’s apartment where she had taken Logan, Rhea was scared as she gathered enough courage and untied Logan and took him to her bedroom for treatment, the man was bleeding nonstop, and she feared he might pass out from blood loss.
“Call… the doctor… I won’t last long”Logan said with heavy breaths as she carefully laid him on the bed, he was sweating like hell and Rhea knew the pain he was feeling.
“Will you stop groaning… you are giving me anxiety okay”she said nervously as she ripped his shirt to expose the wound and Rhea nearly broke down because she hated seeing blood the most that was why she knew being a doctor or nurse was not her calling.
“Damn you…”Logan groaned again as he struggled to sit up and shifted his eyes to his chest and saw the bullet hole.
“Great… it didn’t go that deep… call someone to get… rid of it fast”he was going through so much pain and Rhea wasn’t calling for help.
“I… I won’t call anyone okay… what if they send me to jail”she remarked as she shook her head denying his request and Logan was angered but didn’t dare say anything because the more he yelled, the more pain he felt.
“You deserve to be in jail… now fix this or else”he said with breaths gritting his teeth to keep himself calm, but the pain was unimaginable. Rhea blinked several times and rushed out of the room. Logan used his free hand and got rid of the shirt because it was making him uncomfortable. In no time, the door opened again and Rhea came in holding something and once she got close Logan looked at the things in her hands and knew he was already dead if no doctor came to his aid.
“A spoon, a fork and a kitchen knife? are you fucking kidding me?”he couldn’t believe it, the lady was taking his life as a joke by bringing kitchen utensils to get rid of the bullet
“I have nothing okay… I’m not a surgeon to own medical stuff… I’m… I’m going to improvise now… I’ll make use of this kitchen stuff”Rhea said and crawled on the bed, but Logan shifted away knowing full well she would not get the bullet out but drag it further in his flesh and cause his death slowly.
“G… get away from me!”he made a low yell and pushed her away which was a bad idea because he felt more pain and Rhea narrowed her eyes at him.
“I… think I was a nurse in my past life… yes I was a nurse so… so let me do this” she said with a nervous chuckle and pushed her hair off her face. Who was she kidding, she had no idea what she was doing but she had to do it if she wanted to avoid going to jail for shooting someone.
“Please lord save me”Logan said dramatically as he closed his eyes because Rhea had a fork in her hand and was facing his chest. Rhea swallowed nervously as she got ready to do the unimaginable.
