" Hi baby, you're back," her sweet voice greeted me as soon as she saw me as a sweet scent drifted through my nose.

" My love, what are you doing?" I asked as I walked towards the kitchen.

" You're such a stubborn woman, you should be resting, not cooking," I said as I removed my jacket then folded my shirt sleeves.

" What are you making?" I asked.

" Pizza," She said as her eyes went to my exposed arms. Everything I do attracts this woman even when I was not trying.

" How was your time at the park?" I asked hoping that she would tell me she met with her ex.

" Was good...please pass me that plate," She said and I looked at her without saying anything before passing her the plate she requested.

She didn't say anything.

She limped to the oven and brought out the pizza and I just watched her.

When the pizza was ready we ate in a comfortable silence and yet she still hadn't said anything. Why wouldn't she want to tell me she met him and I couldn't ask her because she'd think I was monitoring her or something.

" Is something the matter, baby?" She suddenly asked as we made our way upstairs.

" It's nothing," I said.

" You're lying, I can see it in your eyes, did I do something wrong?"

" You didn't," I said and she immediately blocked me.

" I know you, you're like an open book to me and I know when something is bothering you," She said.

" Fine, did you meet someone earlier today?" I asked and she looked at me in confusion before it looked like realization dawned on her.

" Oh, I forgot, yeah I met with Eddy today, is that why...wait how do you know?" She asked, folding her arms as she looked at me suspiciously, I was caught, no escape for me.

" Were you watching me?"

" I wasn't, I just asked your bodyguards to make sure you were doing okay, I was worried," I said.

" Is that why you were acting like a grumpy baby?" She asked as she rolled her eyes.

" Well, I was you know..." I said as I scratched the back of my head.

" Jealous? You're so easy to make jealous," She said with a chuckle as we continued our way upstairs.

I opened the door and as soon as the door closed I pushed her against the door claiming her soft lips and she moaned into my mouth.

" Just a little reminder, you'll always be mine, forever," I said as she looked up at me with a beautiful smile.

" Forever,"

We had our shower and got dressed for bed.

I made sure that Katherine was comfortable but just when I was about to join her, my phone vibrated with a message. I wanted to ignore it but my mind told me to check.

I climbed the bed and took the phone from the bedside table.

The moment I picked the phone and saw the message my heart dropped.

I quickly jumped out of bed and Katherine immediately sat up looking at me with worry.

" What happened?" she asked.

" There's nothing for you to worry about, just go to sleep, I'll be back before you know it," I said as I quickly rushed to her and kissed her lips before running out of the room.

The office was on fire. How was that even possible?

******

I was so worried, I didn't know why Luca rushed out of the room like he did but I knew it was something serious.

The look in his eyes said everything. I've never seen him look so panicked.

I couldn't go to sleep without him so I just sat in bed waiting for him.

The time was 10:25 pm. It was quite late and I didn't even know where he ran off to.

I couldn't help but feel nervous.

With my eyes on the door and my mind telling me the worst, I waited.

My phone suddenly rang and I quickly picked it up and answered.

" Hello, Katherine Gia Westbrook," I heard a strange voice say, I didn't recognize the voice.

" Who are you?" I asked.

" Well maybe I should send you a picture and you might know who I am, or maybe not," the person said with a laugh and I scrunched my brows in confusion.

I looked at my screen as a message entered so I clicked on it and it was a picture.

A picture of Debbie.

" What do you want?! Why do you have my sister?" I asked as I quickly got up from bed.

" Wouldn't you want to come join the party? Since you know I've got one gun pointing to your sister and one pointing to lover boy, and he doesn't even know that." The person said with a burst of laughter.

" Why are you doing this? What do you want?" I asked as I felt my heart beating in my chest.

" Nothing, I just want to finish what he started."
