I sighed with pleasure, still gazing up at the night sky, it was really beautiful; it felt so good to let it out my system. I was determined to make sure my stepmother, Claire pays for what she did.

I had been bullied and tortured for so many years after my Mom died when I was little, and I was too naive to even notice that I was used.

But not this time, I had been used in my past life; but this time it's going to be different, I wasn't going to be fooled around twice. This time I had to think of something, I had to think of a plan.

I was still in my thoughts when I heard something moving in the bushes, I instantly jumped away in fear and fright as I saw a dark shadow appeared right behind me.

"Stay back" I yelled but the shadow came even closer, the shadow look tall and broad so I suspected it was a man; I wasn't armed with any thing so I searched around for anything I could find and found a long thick branch.

I quickly picked it up and aimed it at the man "I said stay back" fiercely holding the branch firm in my hands, the man came to a stop and a few seconds later started moving forward again. I still held my ground with the branch firmly in my hands, I wasn't going to back down already; as he came forward I tried to see his face but it was still dark so I couldn't seem to make it out.

I got frustrated and when he was close enough i decided to attack him, I held the branch high to hit his head directly, I had tightly
closed my eyes and tried smacking his head but my hands stopped short. He had held my hands mid air and the branch had fallen off, "Oh no, this isn't good" I thought to my self, and worse I couldn't fight back because my body was still recovering from the incident.

"Is this how you usually do" I heard a voice say, I slowly raised my head up and to my shock it was Young master Mayne. "Aaah" I panicked and almost tripped but he caught me in time saving me from hitting the hard floor.

"I'm so sorry Mr Mayne, I didn't know it was you" I said flustered with embarrassment with him still holding me from falling.

I tried to pull away from him, but mistakenly tripped over the stick I dropped and found myself pinned to the wall by him. I gazed into his deep blue crystal eyes and glowing black hair against the moon light, his face was stern but calm, his stature was like those hot body model but way hotter he was definitely the most handsome man I had seen.

I shifted my gaze away from him, "Emm...you can get off me now" I was already filled with embarrassment. He got off me and I felt my face heating up, was I blushing?

He looked at me like I was some kind of difficult puzzle, "Are you ok? You face looked like a red tomato" he was directly poking my face. Wow, this dude just doesn't know when to stop!

I pushed his hands away,"What! I'm perfectly fine, it's you that looks like a tomato" I quickly shrugged him off and stepped aside to put my self together.

He still came closer and kept his eyes on me, which was making me feel awkward. "Ok why are you looking at me like I've got two heads or something" I said confronting him. He looked taking aback but still remained his composure, then finally spoke after like 2 mins of silence. Geez, he was such a dramatist.

"I was just wondering how you got hold of the information about the Mayne family heirloom, I checked all security cameras and they didn't mention it" he said giving me the suspicious look, his face inches away from mine.

His face always gives me the chills, I backed away trying to avoid such interrogation but he cornered me again "it...wa.. was just something I heard, I didn't realize it was relevant until you mentioned it" I said stammering looking away from him, how was I going to explain I was reborn and had heard it when I was in my previous life.
