Desiree's POV
I'm now inside his car, and his driver is like a f*cking psychopath since the speed is so fast that it makes me cringe and stress out as my head hits the window glass.
"I'm sorry about that, is your head okay?" George says as he closes the privacy window between the driver and the passenger.
"Do you believe I'll be alright while I'm with you?"
"I only want you to change your mind, I want you to be happier with me." He smiled proudly like he is thinking that it is going to be possible that I'm going to be happier with him. Is he crazy? I sighed. What happened to Alexander now? Is he worried that I am not still in the house now? Where is he now and what is he doing when I'm not? I want to escape from George and run to Alexander arms and tell him how much he means to me. But I guess that was all my imagination and it can't happen in real life.
I slap his face and he just laughs at me, "I don't want to hurt you, Desiree. You know how much I really want you, so I am not going to hurt you like you did to me." He said and held my both hands, he was stopping me from hitting his face.
Damn, His face is now bright red, as a result of me slapping him across the face repeatedly until he realises how angry I am with him. He's annoying, and I'm yelling at him right now because he needs a brain to understand me.
"Why can't you see that I don't want you and that I'm not in love with someone like you? And I swear to God, you're the most obnoxious and bothersome person I've ever encountered!"
"Yeah, just hate me because you're going to love me sooner or later." He closes his eyes and smiles as he returns to his seat. I'm curious as to why he's thinking right now. I'm not sure how I'm going to get rid of him. I was desperate to get away from him.
It's disgusting to be in the same car with him at the same time, driving me to a place I'm unsure with.
"I'm sorry but you need to sleep now, the travel is long and don't you dare kill me, because first of all you wont succeed and I'm faster than you." He threatened me.
"How will I know you won't do something terrible to me when I'm sleeping?" I groan, biting my bottom lip. " I'm not sure I can trust someone like you. You're a scumbag."
You're a scumbag." I shouted fiercely, and he opened his eyes again, turning to face me.
"Why are you constantly complaining? I'm making an effort to be a nice person here."
"You've never been a good person..."
"I am, That's why you're still alive...I'm giving you one last chance to love me or I'll kill you." he start to laugh and cough, "Oh sorry, I have cough." he said.
"I don't know why the people O trust keep on betraying me, the only man that I can trust now is Alexander and my family." I wshipered under my breath but he ehard that and he scoffed.
"Do you think that you can trust him? If he loves you, he will not date another woman and put her inside his mansion and treat that woman like a family to his mother." he said.
"That was his ex," I tried to defend Alexander.
"Yes, his ex, his mother loves his ex, why can't you choose me so that you wont have a problem? I am sure my parents will be happy to have you as their daughter in law."
"In your dreams. I will never be the woman you are going to marry, you can't forced me. I don't like you and I hate you a lot!" I shoiuted at him because I am getting pissed by his attitude.
"I know you are going to love me…" he repeated this again.
"How many times that I willñ never ever love someone like you, you id*ot!"
He tease me again and again, he evern burst in to laugh as he saw me so angry to him.
Alexander's POV
"It's been five hours and she hasn't shown up; what happened to her? I haven't heard from my bodyguards either. Simon, double-check the security and phone Brick and John again; we need to know what's going on." I told my Simon to do it; he's the security chief, and when he checked the camera in my mansion, he shrugged and said, "No, sir. They haven't arrived yet; they left the mansion at 10 a.m. and haven't returned to this point."
"It's impossible. Someone call the police to trace Desiree." I said, my heart began to race at this point, I am being so worried now and I can't stop thinking about her.
Theres no way something will about to happen to her, she was with her friend unless her friend did something to her.
I hired the best boydguards for her, then why is this happening now? This is really a disaster.
Then Simon's phone ringing, It was brick and john was calling.
They explained that they lost George and that everyhtingg was set up, they don't know that it is going to happen because they trusted the friend of Desiree.
And the friend named Johanna, Betrayed Desiree and thats what happen.
"George! You are son of a b*tvh!!" I yelled under my breath and tried to gather all of my men to prepare for a war, I am going to take my woman, she is mine and mine and only.
"Prepare yourselves, locate him and after that we are going to make a war with that man! If he can buy a justice but he can't get away from me, I have no mercy to the man that trying to let me down." I said. I glance at my men and they were both agreed to me.
"Simon, did you already locate them?" I ask him. "yes, sir, they are not far yet. I know a short cut to ambush them."
"Good. thats what I want." I said and clicks my gun.
"Sir, everyone is ready, we have to go now-" Simon said and he take me to the other car, "make sure everything is planned. We can't fail tonight," I told him.
He nod his head and says, "yes, sir."
I tried to call her but I stop myself because maybe that will the reason that George will know the planned and we will failed to save Desiree.
I make sure I am calm and I will never be freaked out when I see the loved of my life being hurt or threaten. I want to save her tonight and no one is going to stop me from succeeding.
When we arrived at the short cut area, we tried to be more careful and wait for a minute to the three cars speeding and appsorching us.
It's them.
My men tried to fire there guns on the tire as the car began to fell and stopped.
The other guy get out from the car and fight bullets with us but he is not lucky and I shoot him on his head, "bulls eye." I said.
The other car stopped running and when the car open, I saw the hair of Desiree.
I told my men to stop firing because they can kill Desiree. The other group of men tried to fire a bullets with us, but we are more wise than them, I throw a grenade and for a second, its explode and I can't hear a thing after what happened. When I saw that george is taking Desiree and they are running on the other way, I crawl on to the floor and I grab the legs of George, he was holding Desiree but Desiree began to run and unfortunately George just fire his gun and the bullet is going to Desiree's upper back, she fell into the floor and passed out. George get away and I run to see if Desiree is still alive, I touch her pulse and listen to it, thankfully she is still alive.
When I look around, I can't no longer where is George but my worry now is for Desiree. She's been shot and I want to get her to the hsopital as soon as possible. I yelled at my men to help me to carry her and put her inside the car.
We won, but I fail to protect her, she is wounded.
I run to my car and starts to drive, leaving my men there to clean the mess so that we leave no trace.
When I arrived at the hospital, I saw Nathaniel. It's my friend and he helped me to put Desiree on the bed and he tried to make me calm down, "Don't worry, she is going to make it. Just stay here…" He said.
"Make an effort to save her! Nathan." I murmured gently, my fury and worry combined in this moment; I want to find out where George is right now, and I want to be with Desiree till she wakes up; I just realized that my tears had started to roll down, and I tried to brush them away before anyone saw me sobbing; now is not the time to cry, she is not dead yet.
"Alexander?!" I just heard a woman's cpoice just passed and stop to look at me, I looked up and saw Mercedes, she is my batchmate before and I did not know that she is now a doctor.
A successful doctor.
"What are you doing here?" She ask me with a confused face.
"My girlfriend was shot." I replied to her and her face became saddened as she heard that, "Oh, I'm sorry, I am sure Doc Nathaniel will going to save her, it's been a long time that I don't see you…but I pray that your girlfriend will be safe." she said and give me a warm smile as she put he rhands on her pocket.
"Yeah, thank you Doc Woods." I said and she smile at me once more. "No, I no longer used that last name, I'm married now to Mister Henderson."
"Oh you married Nathaniel Henderson?" I ask her in shock and she shook her head, " No, I marry his brother. Frederick, the restired basketball player." she reolied to me, I thought she married Natnaile because they was been promise to marry each other but the destiny play with them, she marry the brother instead.
"Oh, I am so happy for you…"
"Yeah, you should marry her too…I know you are so inloce with her, don't waste time because time is gold." she said and left me with a good advice that I'm going to think all night.
Then I just imagined myself getting married to Desiree.
It's perfect and I want it to happen.
Desiree's POV
"Hey, are you all right? Is your wound still hurting you? Could you please speak to me?"
It's Alexander's voice that I heard now, I am not dreaming and I am with him at this moment.
Then I just remembered about what happen last night, he tried to risk his life just to save me. He is really my hero, even if he hasntr told me that he loves me, each day and each works and effort that he gives to me was a kind of love that I want.
"Hi…" I start to speak now and he grabbed me by a soft and passionate kiss, "Sorry, I was carried away. I like to hear your voice…" he said and smile at me and massage my palm.
The kissed that we shared for a couple of seconds replay on my mind and that was so sweet.
"I want more, kiss me more."
