CHAPTER 14: He tricked me!

NADIA's POV

I gasped in surprise when someone suddenly hugged me from behind and then buried their face on the crook of my neck. Of course, I didn't need to look back or ask to know who it was because my body instantly recognized him.

"What's with that look on your face, huh, sweetie baby? Are you sad?" Ackier asked sweetly. We're still on his yacht, at the pool area, currently just chillin'. It has been two days since he arrived here and during those times, we didn't leave the yacht.

I had to contact Carol to tell her that I would be staying here on the yacht for the meantime so that everyone wouldn't get worried about me. Ackier was so persistent that he would seduce me into staying with him everytime I told him about going home.

"No. I just can't help but wonder if I'm doing the right thing right now." He made me face him; his eyebrows were knitted together.

"What do you mean?"

I heaved a sigh. "Honestly, I'm scared about this; about us."

"Us? Why, baby? Are you finally agreeing to be mine again?" There was a hint of playfulness in his voice as he placed his hands on the sides of my waist and gently pulled me closer to him until our bodies pressed together.

"Acki! I'm being serious here!" I hissed and was about to distance myself from him when he suddenly pulled me for a tight embrace.

"I'm serious too, sweetie baby. Just like I've said before; I want you to be mine again. You don't have to be scared of anything. The past is not important anymore. What's important is now; what we have in the present." I bit my lower lip and then sighed.

"You don't understand."

"Why? Don't you like me too?"

"It's not that." I answered, having a hard time explaining what I wanted to say. He pulled away a little bit from our embrace and then cupped my face.

"Then, tell me. Explain to me so that I could understand." I took a deep breath.

"I am fully aware that I have a dissociative amnesia. My doctor explained about it to me."

"So? What does it got to do with what we have now?" I removed his hands from cupping my face in frustration.

"Everything, Acki! Everything! Yes, I admit that the moment we saw each other and you made me feel these strange feelings, I already knew in the back of my mind that we probably had something special in the past. But at the same time, I got scared because why don't I remember anything about you?

"The doctor said that most of the things that I don't remember were the things that probably gave me so much heartache and pain that's why my brain has been refusing to remember about them." I finally voiced out what's been bugging me.

"And you're afraid that I hurt you in the past that's why you can't remember me, is that it?" I slowly nodded my head and looked down. He didn't comment for a couple of seconds and I thought, he got mad.

"Look at me." I then heard him utter as he placed a finger under my chin. I did as I was told and to my surprise, there was a loving smile on his face while looking at me.

"Is that the only reason why you've been hesitant and afraid even though it's obvious that you want me too as much as I want you?" I nodded my head. He caressed my cheek gently.
