My eyes flickered open to a severe headache, a groan escaped my mouth as I recalled my drinking so heavily last night, I must have passed out from it. , I remembered Sebastian mentioned something about a parcel, with the thought in mind I made my way out of the couch.
There was something different about last night, there had been no nightmares, it was as if all the dark demons inside of me were kept on a leash.
I had wet a dream about HER, she had laid soft and compliant beneath me as she took me deeper and closer into her warmth. it had felt so real... like I had touched and tasted her. I clenched my teeth against the sudden huge sense of loss that overwhelmed me.
It wouldn't be the first time I've had an erotic dream about her.
Only this time It had been so real...so perfect and equally so dangerous.
My whole body now craved badly for the real thing. I closed my eyes dragging in a long deep breath.
Not finding or knowing her whereabouts was for the best...not for me. Never for me. It was the best for her.
She should never allow me to find her because then I won't be able to stop myself. whatever dark feelings I have for her only became deeper and intense as time went by ... I don't think she'll be able to take it, I will just end up ruining us both. Again.
I made my way to the bathroom and splashed water over my face to clear my head, my whole body tensed and paused when my gaze caught on something as I bypassed the mirror.
I stared at the light scratches over my shoulders and chest area in confusion at first, a deep unexplainable feeling began to spread on my insides like molten lava.
My head refused to believe the possibility even as it came.
It hadn't been a dream!
My gaze roved across the room temporarily, searching for any clue of the possibility that...
My breath hitched when I spotted something black just on the foot of the couch, I straightened down to retrieve it.
It was some female's purse.
My blood was drumming uncontrollably as I ripped it open, the various contents fell to my hands.
The first thing my gaze locked upon was a passport.
A hard kick situated deep in my guts twisting the wind out of me.
How could it be...
She wasn't an imagination....she was real and she'd been here!
My gaze feasted on her photo as a man starved. She was now a blondie, that was the only thing that changed about her.
Whatever control I had gained over the past years just snapped, unleashing the predator that had been set to find her all those years ago.
She found me first.
Whatever the reason was I just knew she made a huge mistake, she played a very dangerous game and just set the wolf back on the hunt.
I won't be blamed for whatever happens this time. I fucking tried.
The remaining contents were her driver's license and some other documents, but why would she come and leave all these behinds after hiding from me for six years?
She'd come here.
found me... then escaped
It doesn't matter anymore, when I get her this time there would be no escaping my clutches this time.

I paid another visit to dad at the hospital, I was leaving town after this and couldn't be sure of when my next visit would be.
I've always hated the smell of hospitals, especially this particular one. All those dark empty days six years ago just kept coming back each time I come here.
It had taken me three weeks to get off the bed and about three months to be able to move about again.
All I could think of was getting well because I wanted her so badly.
But then...
I was pulled out of my thoughts when I reached the door to dad's private ward, the door was ajar so I didn't bother with a knock.
His back was faced with me as he stared out the window.
it was great to see him back on his feet. He was always a strong man, whose presence commanded power, this would be the very first time since I've known him that he's gotten so sick and even had to be admitted.
"How are you feeling now? the doctor said you are doing well " I spoke striding casually to meet up with him.
He turned around to face me slowly, the corners of his lips quirking just slightly, his wrinkled eyes rested on me for a moment before he walked over to a seat by the single bed.
"I'm retired, the burden is no longer on me anymore so I should be fine "
"That's good to hear "
"You should come over more often son, It's quite boring staying there by myself,I also know the business is quite busy lately "
He cared about his family but he was one who rarely shows his emotions. I think Sebastian and I got that part from him.
We discussed business for a while before I decided it was time to leave.
I should stay for a little bit longer but my whole body was thrumming with impatience.
"Stay healthy father "
We gave each other curt nods before I stormed right outside and headed straight to my car.
"Hello "
a feminine voice spoke from behind me, I turned around to see Melissa.
She was the daughter of one of our business partners, what she was doing over here at the hospital?
"I'm sending my dad's regard to your father " she explained
That would say for her sudden presence here, her dad and mine were quite close, friends I might even say.
"Are you leaving? I.. "
"I have work " I spoke interrupting whatever she was about to say.
I have something that couldn't wait.
Finding her.

"Verify that info and send me every detail about that..there should be nothing amiss, I'll have to hear your feedback in an hour" I commanded
He gulped visibly before taking a glance at the document I had given to him. which consisted of her driver's license and car insurance.
"isn't one hour a little too sma...."
"And so is your fucking life span if you don't get back to me in the next fifty-nine minutes. " I snapped meaning every word of it.
He scurried out without another word while I paced about like a caged tiger.
I kept casting impatient glances on my wristwatch.
Nearly just about fifty minutes later my cellphone binged and I wasted no time answering it
"Yes. tell me"
I listened as he confirmed everything I had ordered, the information contained in those documents was correct which means...
"One more thing boss, she has a kid who I think is si.... "
I couldn't hear the rest of what he said. His earlier words absorb slowly inside my head, then shortly after rage and jealousy and a huge sense of betrayal unlike anything I've ever known before surged through me, firing up my veins like molten lava, it blinded me for a moment and I could see nothing but red spots.
She fucking has a kid!
She got close to someone enough for the damn bastard to spew his seed deep into her depth.
But she is Mine!
I allowed myself not to search for her but she was still goddamned Mine!
I don't think my body has reacted so intensely towards anything like I am now, maybe except when I fucked her.
Kill. that was the only word I could think of.
That was what I'll do. A very slow agonizing death forever touching what's Mine
I will kill the fucking son of a bitch without a doubt, then her forever betraying me.
The thought sobered me up just the smallest bit.
I wouldn't be able to kill her because that would mean depriving myself of her. And I'm that selfish.
But she was definitely going to pay.
