Let's Play Your Games, Dr. Hudson

Abhaya gets sidetracked while trying to fix her brow, which always crossed the line. She'll never be able to let go of the man who gave her life purpose. Her eyes began to well up with tears, but she managed to stop them from rolling down her cheeks. She'll need to be brave. In the bet that Hudson Herrence Hayes would play, her heart was on the line.

She could tell she hadn't slept enough because of her puffy eye bags. She gave a glum smile, but suddenly her smile turned to tears. Shit! I’m not going to cry. I am not going to cry. Hudson is to blame for everything. Why did she end up with him in the first place?

She failed to recognize that she was being manipulated in the midst of her enjoyment of the game she was playing. As if nothing had happened, she walked out of the restroom. Her face was lit up with a broad smile. She put on the mask once more to make herself believe that everything is okay right now.

"Are you all right?"

When was the last time she was fine? She doesn't know. She nodded. "I'm sorry for taking so long; let's go?" She put her hand on his arm right away, but he quickly yanked it away. Her heart ached, but she pretended nothing had happened.

"I despise public displays, Abhaya." He spoke flatly.

She flashed a lovely smile. She pretended that the pain wasn't actually there, that it was all in her head. Why had she forgotten how much Hudson despised public displays? Oh yeah. Screw me.

"Please don't text or call me. If you have anything to say, please leave a message and I'll get back to you." He then drove her to her apartment.

Hudson Herrence Hayes is a wellknown doctor for his good looks and intelligence. He's also a skilled Mechatronical Engineer, and a dealer of highend car spare parts worldwide. In short, he's a billionaire. She couldn't imagine how it could handle everything all the time. Being both a doctor and a businessman.

DESPITE the fact that Hudson had already left, she remained in the doorway, her gaze following Hudson's car as it drove away. She slouched down on the couch and groggily grabbed her phone. She was momentarily taken aback when she saw something on Twitter.

‘Doc Herrence Hayes has a girlfriend who is a beauty queen.’

She turned off the phone and stared blankly at the ceiling. She was aware of Hudson's public image as a playboy and girl magnet. Nothing new. She became one of the women who became fools after Hudson approached her. She was one of the women who became fools after Hudson approached her. She's beautiful, attractive, and a bad liar. She used to make fun of men by playing hearts with them, but that is no longer the case. She had no idea she had dozed off while thinking about Hudson. . .

"Stop playing hearts, Kienie. You don't understand karma, and when it bites you, I'm sure you'll be sorry. Karma is digital."

The advice from her notsofriend and coworker made her roll her eyes. She doesn't mess around with hearts or hurt anyone.

"Whoa! Please don't accuse me of trampling on anyone's hearts." She cried out in amazement. "What kind of karma are you talking about? If it's digital, it might be a camera, eh?"

"God, Abhaya Kienne Sahada! Who exactly is this Arthur, and who is this man, Zack? You're killing two birds with one stone, Beshy."

She doesn't give a damn. All she did was shrug her shoulders. Thank goodness it is lunchtime because she is starving! Is it her fault that she was born with beauty and that a lot of people wanted to be her? No.

"Hey, I'm not through yet!"

"If you're not hungry, that's okay! Because me? I’m going, bye!"

She said something that left Freia stunned, but all she did was laugh. What is it about her that makes her so appealing? The idea made her laugh nonstop. She’s pretty, yeah! She should be grateful for the genes bestowed on her by her parents.

As she rushed down the elevator, her cell phone rang. She was in such a hurry that she didn't notice she had boarded the private elevator.

"No. I'm not coming, sorry cousin." Abhagay sighs and rolls her eyes as she answers the call. Her cheeky cousin invited her to a wellknown Makati hangout.

Three men in suits walked in, but she didn't seem to care. She didn't raise an eye to see who they were. She was engrossed in a conversation with her cousin.

"No!" She yells in frustration.

Behind her, the three men who were talking stopped their conversation. She's pacing a lot right now and hadn't realized she was in an elevator with another person. "Hold on a second! You are treating me unfairly. It's not right. That is not something I want to do. What?!"

The elevator stopped at the ground floor as she was still protesting and ranting on the phone. She was all set to go but was shocked to find that she didn't have any cash or a wallet with her. All she had was her phone. God! She must go back and grab her wallet from the 25th floor. She immediately went back inside the elevator just to bump someone. Argh!

"Damn!"

She could hear the person's voice becoming irritated. Hmp! She smirked and raised her head, leaving whatever she was going to say hanging in the air. It's Doctor Hayes who's standing in front of her. He is dressed in a tieandblack suit. Oh my God! This man is oozing with sex appeal! Her heart was racing like crazy!

"Excuse us," a baritone voice said from behind Doctor Hayes.

It drew Abhaya's attention. Shit! She wants the rest of the world to forget about her. Behind Dr. Hayes, she noticed Mr. Azael Aadi Legrand and Mr. Cuhen Malcogn. The company's owners, for which she works! Why on earth did she encounter such terrible luck today. There is such a thing as karma. Argh! When she realized the elevator, she had just gotten into was a private elevator, she wanted to scream. It is forbidden for employees like her to do this.

She turned and ran away in shame. She looked like the athlete of the year even though she was only wearing a fitted uniform and 4inch heels. It was amazing how quickly she ran. They should not remember her. God! She doesn't want to lose her job, and she has no intentions of looking for another job this year. Oh my god, sht!

When the doorbell rang several times, Abhaya was startled awake. Her gaze was pulled to the wall clock beside the door, which indicated that it was already 8:00 p.m. She must have slept for more than four hours. She jumped to her feet and rushed to the door.

"You never answer my text or call, Abhaya," Hudson remarked angrily, and she knew he didn't want his texts or calls to go unanswered.

"I'm sorry, I fell asleep," she said as she opened the door for him. But all he did was stand there and stare at her, perhaps thinking about what she had said.

"We're going somewhere," he said as he walked to the car parked in front of her apartment with no emotions on his face.

What else could she do as his slave but nod? Hudson gets what he wants, and she realizes how dumb she is about him. She's the 'Fool of the Year.

When she got into his car, she was dressed simply in pants and a simple blouse, and Hudson was staring at his laptop, clearly focused on what he was doing.'

It immediately grimaced when it turned to face her, and he looked at what she was wearing.

"Is something wrong?"

"You need to change your clothes. Wear something appropriate. We're running late, and Cuhen is throwing a surprise birthday party for his wife." He commented as he looked at his watch. He immediately switched his focus back to his laptop, "Fix it right away. I'm going to set aside 20 minutes for you."

She sighed quietly and hurriedly went inside, putting on a simple dress and a little makeup to conceal the pain she was feeling right now. She was back in less than 20 minutes. Hudson only looked at her before starting the car and didn't say anything, and when she checked her phone, Hudson made 2 calls and only texted her once. Tsk!

Ellah, the wife of Mr. Cuhen Malcogn, was the first person she saw when they arrived at the party. Although she'd seen her on television, she didn't believe that she was this sweet and gentle in person, and she tried to hold back her tears by biting her lip. When was the last time she was entirely honest with herself? She couldn't remember when it was.

Ellah is somewhat five months pregnant, and she was overjoyed when she saw how much her boss, Cuhen Malcogn, loved his wife, and she assumed Hudson would be the same for her.

"You seem so sad."

She was surprised when Ellah came up to her. She was just on one side, and Hudson briefly left her to talk to his friends. Ellah smiled at her, and she could see the love in her eyes for her husband.

"I'm alright." she said with a smile.

She glanced at her and reached out her hand. "You should know that I am suffering from that pain as well. I see myself in 'you,' but all I can say is that if you have a reason to keep going, do so. One day, all of your pain will be paid for."

She doesn’t think so. She looked up and smiled sweetly at her once more. Abhaya has one more thing to hold onto, and maybe what Vraiellah said will come true. She was just standing in a corner until she made the decision to go. She didn't want to say goodbye to Ellah; she just wanted to leave the party as soon as possible. Although the celebration was still going on, Hudson was concentrating entirely on his friend, and she noticed that they were solely talking business.

Despite being two and a half months pregnant and having no visible signs of it on her body, she was unable to inform Hudson that she was expecting and carrying their child. She lost track of how frequently they engaged in sexual activity. As long as Hudson needed her in bed and where he wanted her, she couldn't disobey or say no.

Her mind was blank; she was hovering and unable to grasp herself. She had no idea where she was heading until she discovered she was in the sea. As she walked towards the sand and felt the cold air on her face, she smiled bitterly. There are many stars in the sky, and Hudson's favorite is to sit on the sand and gaze at them. It was only now that she realized her tears were dripping. One... Two... up until she began sobbing quietly.

She spent two hours by the seaside before choosing to take a taxi home. She turned off her phone and walked into her apartment like a corpse. She is grateful Hudson wasn't there, or else she’ll be dead. She was so worn out that she fell asleep. She requires it for the child, who relies on her for strength.

That evening seemed absurd because Hudson appeared in her dream…

Her heart almost burst open, and she still can't believe she beheld the three sexiest Greek gods.

'I can't believe I'm seeing Doc Hayes so close, and Oh, my! He's stunningly handsome!’

Given that she had a clear view of him and was facetoface with him, she must be the most fortunate woman of them all. God! She can't move on. Her heart was racing, something she didn't like. Argh!

That night, she gave in to her cousin's wishes and went to an expensive pub with her cheeky cousin to forget her embarrassment from the day before. She won't spend a penny on the drinks, which are being paid for by her cousin. Because she wasn't much of a partygoer and needed a sedative, she drank a Bloody Mary.

But when she saw four men who had descended from the heavens enter the bar, she gasped. One of the four guys who had just entered the pub was Doc Hayes, whom she even recognized. Before bidding her cousin farewell, she had a couple drinks. She insisted despite her cousin's objections. She didn't want to hang out with the man who had caught her attention in that bar.

When she felt herself being pulled to the dance floor from where she was standing at the door, she couldn't see the person tugging at her and couldn't hear herself think since the music was playing so loudly. She wanted to break free of the stranger's hold so badly, but it was impossible.

"Let me go." She retorted angrily.

"Let's have some fun, or would you prefer we play something fun in private?" The man said, grinning like a puppy, "Stop acting like you're a virgin."

Her hand twitched, and she was about to slap the unpleasant stranger when someone grabbed her arm and stopped her. Hudson grabbed her, and she ended up on his chest. When she looked up, Hudson's attractive face caught her attention, and she was able to calm her racing thoughts. She snatched her arm as soon as the alcohol's influence subsided, but he grasped it tight.

"I've got you."

She was speechless. "Huh? Wwhat are you doing?!"

He carried her somewhere and, instead of answering her question, leaned her up against the hard wall. She was no longer affected by the alcohol. Suddenly, everything around her slowed down, and her heartbeat became incredibly brisk. Because of the man in front of her, she feels as if the light had been turned off and the ambient bustle had gone quiet. She kept staring at Hudson, as if she'd been hypnotized for reasons she couldn't fathom. Someone slap her, please!

She exclaimed as Hudson touched her cheek and her body reacted. Instead of protesting, she appeared to be enjoying what was happening. She looked into his eyes, but all she saw was desire. No! She's starting to get horny, and that's what she's terrified of!

She shoved his chest quickly in an attempt to get away from him, but he simply grabbed her by the two hands and pinned her against the wall. What, no! He locked his stare on her, and she wasn't a fool for not being aware of his hunger for her.

And her heart had a mind of its own, for when she saw his lips approach her, she slowly closed her eyes. She's dying to taste his lips!

As she felt his lips on hers, she felt like she was floating in the clouds. She liked how slow the kiss was. Just a kiss, but she could hear angels singing all around her. It wasn't her first kiss, but the sensation that enveloped her made her want to exclaim in happiness. Finally! She saw the man to whom she desired to give herself. He held her at the waist while she wrapped her hands around his neck.

They keep kissing as if they are the only people in the world. She started losing her wits when Hudson started to touch her bare back. It feels great! The strong need to own his body was already ablaze within her. She wasn't sure if it was the Bloody Mary she had or his crazy kiss that caused it.

The last thing she knew, she was in the private room with him. She was so obedient to him at the time that she didn't know how they got there. His hand was on her body, freely moving, as he gave her a passionate kiss as if there was no tomorrow. Instead of holding back, she prepared her body for him. She could also feel his erect manhood on her abdomen, It added to the fire in her body.

His lip brushed against her neck. She found the kiss amusing and wanted to giggle. His hand massaged her two breasts as he pressed against her. This is insane! Hudson removed the dress she was wearing off her body, and she could feel the chill sweeping through the room. Hudson's mouth sucked on one of her nipples before she could cover her own breast, which was now exposed.

She groaned and grabbed at his hair! She's gone insane, and whatever happens today will be up to tomorrow. When it laid her down on the bed, the next thing she felt were her undies slipping off her body. He grabbed her hand and pulled it above her head, stopping her from being able to cover herself. The sensation that enveloped her when she felt his finger on her femininity made her want to scream in pleasure.

She uttered "Please" without knowing what she was pleading for. Abhaya gasped when she felt Hudson's lip take the place of the finger that had been playing with her feminity. She wanted to scream with delight!

It's her first time, and she worries that she'll get swept up in the tremendous pleasure he's given her. His finger continued to play her clit while his sinful tongue traveled over her body to devour her. As if she's already high on drugs and will take whatever comes her way. She'll figure out how to pull herself out of this mess tomorrow.

They were moaning each other's names in every corner of that room.Who wouldn't bitch and moan? Only Dr. Hayes could make her scream in pleasure like this. After this, she'll go to church!

When she opened her eyes, Hudson was at her feet, staring at her. She hadn't realized she was naked. In front of her, he is flaunting his v line and eightpack abs. She is drooling and wishes she had some coffee to drink while watching his abs. But her fantasy doesn't end there, because when her naive eye caught sight of his manhood, she covered her mouth!

She felt scared and anxious. Hudson is big and enormous, and she's not sure how that will work for her, especially because his manhood is so savage. Her mind suddenly flipped, and panic took over!

He grasped both of her legs and dragged them closer to her before she could rapidly leap up and leave that sinful bed. She screamed in surprise!

"Do you fear me, young lady?"

Why is it that everything about him, including his voice, drives her insane? She's captivated once more by his venom. He tightened his grasp on her thighs and parted them. She pressed her face against the bedsheet and closed her eyes. She moaned when his tongue plunged again, having bit her lip so hard in anticipation of what was to come.

"Ooohh!" She's gone insane again.

While one of its hands caressed her breast, he softly ate her femininity. She was enjoying the pleasure his tongue had given her when he suddenly stopped, and a sharp pain swept through her. In so much pain, she screamed. It hurts!

He was taken aback and looked at her for a few seconds. "Damn! I don't interact with virgins."

Hudson backed away from her like she had a contagious illness; it was as though boiling water had been dumped on her. He picked up the clothes, turned around, and dressed himself in front of her. He didn't even give her a glance, as if they were done and she didn't exist to him.

Her heart was racing when he left her alone in that room. She couldn't control her emotions as she started to feel ashamed of herself. Tears stream from her eyes like rain. It was as though reality had just hit her in the face.

Abhaya awoke to the warmth of the sunlight streaming in through the window. She was so tired and drowsy that she forgot to close the curtain last night. Hudson visited her in dreams again. She also cried for two weeks as a result of her previous embarrassment. No woman wants to be humiliated by that, so why is he afraid of virgins?

When she went to the bathroom, she was a little shaken.

She does not intend to run for office right now. She'd just texted a friend that she wasn't feeling well and that she was going to a clinic today for a checkup. She needs a maternity checkup to find out what vitamins to take, what foods to eat, and what fruits to eat for the baby in her womb. She's overjoyed to have a new life in her womb.

Smiling, she adjusted herself in the mirror. She was dressed simply in a white dress. She had a milk and sandwich breakfast before heading to the clinic. Her OBGyne prescribed vitamins for her and advised her on what she should and should not eat while pregnant. The doctor also said that her baby was healthy and she smiled.

She went to SM Mall after buying vitamins to get the food and fruit she needed. She was looking for something to purchase when she noticed Vraiellah at the meat station. She was hesitant to approach her, but when Ellah turned around and saw her, she changed her mind. She was the one who walked up to her with a big smile.

Her husband was standing behind her, and she nearly collapsed from embarrassment. Her boss! What will be her justification? She wished to sink into the earth.

"Hey, Abhaya?" Vraiellah speaks to her as if they've been friends for a long time, and she smiles.

She nodded and lowered her gaze. Even though she had been with them at events or parties several times because of Hudson, she was still intimidated by the presence of her boss, Mr. Malcogn.

"Can I first have a girl talk with her, baby? I promise to return home safe." Vraiellah said to her husband. They've finished their shopping. "However, first bring the groceries home, okay? Thank you very much!" Ellah then kissed her husband on the lips.

She was overcome with resentment. She hoped Hudson and she were like that, but they weren't. Hudson dislikes being on display in public.

"All right, bye, you two. When you get home, please call me. And, Ms. Sahada, please look after my wife; she's my entire world."

Mr. Malcogn turned around as she simply nodded. Ellah assisted her in her shopping while they talked. They only met twice, but she felt at ease with her. Maybe Because she's pregnant like her, and she'll admit Ellah is very kind. Unlike her, she wore a lot of masks. But she was sick of wearing any of her masks at this point.

They go straight to a tea shop after shopping.

"You vanished last night."

She cracked a grin. Ellah, the personification of her sister, came to mind. "I'm sorry I couldn't say goodbye to you as well."

Ellah smiled as she paid for the chocolate cake and tea that they had ordered. Her cellphone rang in the bag while they waited for their order. When she picked it up and looked at it, the name Hudson appeared. She stared at it for a long time, wondering if she should answer it, but it died before she could press the accept call button.

"Is that Herrence?" Ellah inquired and grinded.

She gave a nod. "He is, but he dropped the call; perhaps he called just to say hello."

Ellah had been silent for several minutes before responding and staring at her. She extended her hand and squeezed it. "I don't want to get involved, but Abhaya, you can count on me. I'm just here if you need someone to talk to. I don't have any friends, and I'd like you to be one of them."

Their order was arrived.

"Thank you very much. I want you to be my friend as well, Ellah, but I don't deserve to be your friend. You're too good to be true, and I'm a phony."

“Nope! We're friends from now on," she said, laughing.

She, too, laughed. Ellah is nice to her, and she appreciates it.

They both laughed as the two hours of storytelling came to an end. Ellah told her about its love story with Mr. Cuhen Malcogn and how his husband behaved. She was crying as she laughed. She had no idea her boss's wife had such sway over her.

WHEN SHE stepped out of the taxi, Hudson's car waited for her outside her apartment. She didn't notice him because she was preoccupied with something else. Overthink is most likely her master. She was out of breath and nervous. Even though Hudson appeared in front of her apartment on occasion, she couldn't help but tremble at his presence.

She hadn't even approached the gate when Hudson grabbed her arm. Her groceries had fallen to the ground, but her gaze was fixed on Hudson's face. She could tell he was upset.

"You deserve this punishment for leaving me at the party last night." It drew her into the vehicle. She didn't dislike anything. After all, when had she ever been able to dislike him?

Hudson kissed her on the lips sinfully. It ripped her clothes, and she simply stopped complaining. His kiss is painful, and he even bites her. If she complains, she will be warned of danger. She didn't say anything, not even a growl.

He ripped off her bra and tore her undies after ruining her dress. What she sees now is Hudson's other persona, a persona of Him when he is angry. She shuts her eyes. She didn't want to see what he'd do.

"Don't close your eyes, woman." He said it authoritatively, and she only nodded.

It bit her neck and left a mark on her. She bit her lower lip so hard it hurt. Hudson scribbled all over her neck, including her two breasts. The man cinched her two hands with his belt. She simply let him do it until he was finished and then let her go.

Hudson is big, so she isn't prepared when he enters her being, and it hurts. He bites her around the neck. She simply closed her eyes and burst into tears. Hudson has reverted to his former ferocity. He cum several times before feeling the hot liquid inside her womb. She gave a bitter smile.

He silently untied the belt that had bound her hand. He handed her his coat, which she put on, and then he pushed her out of his car, as if disgusted by her presence. After he started the car and adjusted her clothes, she didn't even bother to look at her. He abandoned her like a rag, and tears streamed down her cheeks as she gathered the items she had purchased that were scattered on the road.

"Hold on, baby. Your daddy is a war freak," she tried to cheer herself up despite the fact that the pain was tearing her heart apart.

She simply placed her purchases on the table and went straight to her bedroom to rest. She wasn't tired of talking to Ellah, but she was tired of Hudson. She was tired of crying and tired of being tired, so she decided to put it to sleep, just in case she didn't love the Hudson anymore when she woke up.

She awoke around six o'clock in the evening. While preparing dinner, she turned on her TV in the living room. She needed to eat for the baby in her womb. When her boss's name was mentioned, she paused for a moment.

She smiled as it received an award for being good at business, and Ellah was one of the people behind it receiving the award. When he heard the name Hudson Herrence, she continued to prepare.

When she saw a woman with Hudson on the news, she didn't say anything. As far as she knows, the woman is an actress. Hudson suspected the actress was his girlfriend, and before her heart could feel pain, she turned off the television and focused on what she was doing. She will only be hurt if she continues to watch because she knows it could be true or false.

She was about to drink a glass of milk before going to bed when her office colleague called. Its timing is excellent; it will call when she goes to bed.

"Hello?" she replied, bored.

"I saw him."

She was taken aback. She was speechless, and Abhaya's only option was to be blown away by the wind.

Freia is only aware of the superficial; that she and Hudson are in a relationship a lustful relationship with no love involved. But what about her? It's been a while. She had no idea how to get out of this set up.

"I saw Dr. Hayes with another lovely woman — no, a lovely actress."

Frea could hear what she was saying despite the noise in the background. She closed her eyes and felt tears well up in her eyes, which she quickly wiped away.

"Nah don't bother anyway. I'm far too beautiful to pursue that dreaded Doctor! I can replace him again tomorrow morning." She pretended to laugh, but tears were already welling up in her eyes. Is it okay for her to be hurt?

Nothing. She closes her eyes and the tears, the pain, flow freely. Frea laughed at her response and quickly said her goodbyes.

She got ready for work early the next day.

She was dressed in a turtleneck dress with pants. She had to go to work because she had a parent to support in the province and she needed to make a living here in Manila. She was not requesting money or anything else from Hudson.

"Our manager informed you that Mr. Malcogn had called you. Oh, what a lunatic! What did you do this time?" Freia immediately opened her mouth for her. Her eyebags were darkening, indicating that she had only been sleeping for a few hours.

She rolled her eyes and went to the office of their company's big boss without saying anything. Mr. Malcogn only shows up once a month. Maybe it was too important to say, and she forgot she was with her boss's wife the day before.

When she entered Mr. Malcogn's large private office, he was facing a large portrait of his wife. She smiled inwardly. Who would believe this man is madly in love with his wife?

"Sir?”

It gave her a look. When he saw her, he gave her a small nod and pointed to the chair in front of her desk. She thanked him and sat down. She had no idea what he required because, after all, she was just another employee.

Mr. Malcogn reached for her files, and she looked at it, surprised, and opened what was in the folder. When she read her promotion, she was taken aback for a moment. Was what she read accurate? She's been promoted to supervisor?! Wait a minute... She only works as an Administrative Assistant. How did she get a job when she was only a year old? Something appears to be wrong...

"What you've read is accurate, Ms. Sahada. I personally promoted you. I saw your track record and dedication to your work, and it inspired me to make you our new supervisor. One more thing: it's in the United States. The company's liabilities are housing and transportation." He said it directly, which added to her confusion.

"Wait, sir, I'm not opposed to the promotion, but America? I mean, there are more qualified—"

"Are you saying you're ineligible?"

“Yes! No way. I mean, Sir..."

"Five of these companies, as well as Ms. Freia, the Marketing Assistant, will be sent to the United States. No need to worry, it's only a matter of time, perhaps two or six months depending on how you deal with the people out there." Mr. Malcogn seemed to think as he rotated the ballpen.

She was unable to respond. Why, instead of being happy, did she feel so depressed? She appeared to be on the verge of crying at any moment. She couldn't figure it out, as if something was wrong.

"I interpret your silence as a yes. Good morning, Ms. Sahada. You may return to your office, please." He opened the laptop, and all of its attention was drawn to it.

She said her goodbyes politely and floated out of his office. She was filled with a variety of emotions. Previously, she desired to be promoted and travel to America; however, why does she not appear to be happy now that her wish has been granted? It was as if half of her heart and life were going to be lost. God!

She had to inform Hudson of this.

Is it, however, truly necessary?

She decided to pay Hudson a visit at his private office at the Hayes Group of Hospitals in Makati City. It had been three days since she last saw him and he had punished her in the car, and no Hudson had appeared at her door. During those three days, she had the opportunity to consider telling him about her situation, their child in her womb, and her quick promotion.

He was wearing a doctor's coat and a stethoscope around his neck, she noticed. Even though he rarely smiles, he is quite attractive. She wouldn't be surprised if he was named one of the world's hottest doctors. Maybe Hudson took everything and caught it when God showered grace on the air.

He's just right for her. Its square jaw exudes grace, as do its thick brows, lashes, and emerald eyes, which intimidate every woman. His perfect pointed nose, which appears to have been sculpted by a great sculptor. his luscious sinful lips, which all women adore. A living representation of a Greek god. It's no surprise that so many people pursued the young doctor. Everything was given to him, including fame, money, and good looks.

Hudson cast a sidelong glance at her before returning his attention to the documents that had been checked. "What brings you here? Have I not told you that I don't want to be disturbed unless I give you permission?" He growled and appeared unconcerned.

She wore her mask as if she wasn't affected, but the pain of what he said was almost unbearable. "Hudson, we need to talk."

"Make it quick. After 20 minutes, I have a meeting." He glanced at his watch before returning his attention to the documents he was reading.

She was about to say something when his secretary walked in. Another secretary, based on what she saw the last time, and this time, his secretary wore much more revealing clothing. Its cleavage was so obvious that it almost spit out her breast, and the skirt was too short. Abhaya simply ignored it, but she was taken aback when it whispered to Hudson while caressing his shoulder.

Directly in front of her?! Wow!

She pretended not to notice what his secretary had done. After all, she's just Hudson's fucking pal. Even though she wanted to explode and hit the secretary with a pipe, she kept herself calm.

"Didn't you say you'd bring me to your yacht today?"

What?

Abhaya could hear her words even though they were spoken in hushed tones. She tried to relax by remembering the child in her womb. She didn't want to be upset.

"Yes, baby, give me a minute to finish this and I'll take you there." Hudson gave the woman a kiss on the lips.

Her face turned bright red as a result of what she witnessed. There's a sting in her heart, as if the tears she's been holding back will burst at any moment. She managed a loud sigh, they looked at her, and the woman rolled her eyes at her. The secretary was not even embarrassed by her presence, despite the fact that she was more beautiful than her.

"Give me a few minutes to talk to her." Hudson said this while giving his final kiss.

The woman exited with a graceful nod. If she hadn't just used an overly intimidating aura and mentioned Mr. Malcogn's name, his secretary wouldn't have let her in earlier.

Ah, a meeting! She wanted to sarcastically laugh.

"How can you be so coldhearted?" She began. Her voice was devoid of emotion, but she was dying from pain on the inside. She was still standing about two meters in front of him.

Hudson refused to budge and continued to read the documents on the table. “Why? Are you shocked? You know what you've gotten yourself into, Abhaya."

She bit her lower lip so hard it hurt. "Anyway, let's jump to my—" she wanted to cry but stopped herself.

"Yes, what exactly is it? Promotion?" he cut him off and looked at her, clearly bored by her presence. Yes, I heard you got promoted. "Are you not happy"

She couldn't say anything because she was staring at him. So, how come she forgot Hudson and her boss were business partners? She took a deep breath and found herself unable to speak for a few seconds. She has something else to say besides the promotion... And the child in her womb has a right to know who its father is.

"I'm pregnant for two and a half months." She said it directly and dropped the test and prescription from her OBGyne at his table.

She couldn't tell what Hudson was thinking. He just stared at her, emotionless. He came to a halt for a moment and didn't even look at the test results that she had placed on the expensive glass table.

"I allowed you to use birth control pills to avoid pregnancy." "How is this possible?"

True, he allowed her to use pills, but when they were on his yacht for three days before, she forgot to take the pills. She stopped taking pills after that because Hudson was in London the next day and would be gone for three weeks.

"I stopped using it," she replied fearlessly, but the pain nearly killed her.

Hudson twisted his upper lip as he took the test result. "What exactly do you want?" And look at her like she's a harlot.

Abhaya stared at him intently, as if Hudson was probing into her personality. She bit her lower lip and faked a laugh in response to what he said. She didn't come here to be held accountable; she simply wanted him to be aware of her situation.

“Nothing. I've just come to tell you that I'm pregnant—" He didn't let her finish because he interrupted her.

"How much do you want from me in terms of money? Ten million? 50 million people? Slut, you name it. I know I'm not the father of that child," he said angrily to her.

"I'm not here to—"

"Oh, please! Abhaya, sever the fucking fucking fucking fucking fucking Set your own price. How much do you cost?"

It was as if a bomb had gone off, and she was unable to speak. The old mask she was wearing vanished in an instant. She was like a candle that was slowly being consumed, and her pain was visible on her face. At the same time, the tears she had been holding back began to fall in torrents, like rain. She didn't say anything, and before she could slap the man she loved with all her heart, she turned around and ran to the door.

Yes, she dashed to the elevator, tears in her eyes. Her heart was breaking, and she felt as if it had been abandoned in the man's office. She wasn't expecting what Hudson said. In agony, the earth nearly swallowed him. It's fine not to hold her accountable; she just went to tell him she's pregnant, not to make it appear as if he could afford to pay her a lot of money and tell her she's a flirt and she's not carrying his child. Really?!

This is how low he regards her personality, as if she had been carved by disease. Hudson has been the only man she has truly loved her entire life, but fate was not on her side. Love is now playing tricks on her; karma is truly digital, but why is it so painful? It hurts too much when fate plays tricks on you.

"Miss, are you all right?"

She did not respond to the questions she was asked in the groundfloor hallway after exiting the elevator. She simply ran and ran to get out of there. She smears the tears that fall from her eyes, but they continue to fall like rain.

She had no idea where she was going; she simply let her foot lead her. She just kept running, and she wanted to thank the weather for the sudden downpour.

But a strong brakes stirred her spirit and brought her to a halt. Only then did she realize she was in the middle of the road and her body was being thrown away. She felt as if she had gone numb as a result of the strong collision. A few grains of sand slipped from her eyes, along with the agonizing pain in her womb. She couldn't feel anything for a few moments, everything in her went black, and she couldn't hear anything around her.

THE four white corners of the room were the first thing that Abhaya noticed. She stood there for a long time, staring at the ceiling, wondering what had happened to her. Yes, she remembered... she was hit by a car, and then there was a long period of darkness.

"You've been sleeping in this bed for two weeks. I'm glad you decided to wake up," he said flatly, before checking her vital signs.

She didn't respond and pretended not to hear, but she frowned when she realized what Hudson had said.

What exactly is she? Two weeks of sleep? How long did she sleep... What happened during her unconsciousness for a week? Wait... No... No…

"How is my baby" It was almost a whisper when it came out of her mouth, because she was still very weak.

She wanted to yell at him, but she couldn't because she was still weak. While she waited for an answer, her tears began to fall.

"It's gone"

Two words, but they hit her like a bomb. No! No... No... he's just joking. Her baby had no reason to fall out of her womb. No, she was becoming hysterical. Her eyes were welling up with tears at all times. She is unable to accept it! No!

"Pplease, aren't you just lying?" She pleaded as her tears streamed uncontrollably.

God! It hurts! Please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please She knew Hudson couldn't accept her pregnancy and that she could live on her own without his assistance. Hudson had no reason to tell her that the life that had once existed in her womb had died. He's deceiving her! Hudson has no right to say such a thing.

"The baby is gone, Abhaya."

Despite her weakness, she stood up and quickly felt her stomach with one hand with dextrose hanging on it. Hudson quickly stopped her, but she refused to take his hand in hers. He has no right to touch or sympathize with her.

She clenched her fist and screamed in agony, but no voice came out of her throat. She couldn't raise her voice, despite her desire to yell and drive Hudson away. He's a true demon! She lost her baby as a result of an accident, and no one can blame her except the man in front of her.

"Stop crying, it's all happened," he said matteroffactly.

If she had the strength now, she would have slapped Hudson and punched him in the face. How could it tell her everything so succinctly that the life she was living in her womb seemed meaningless? How? Was it enjoyable because she was obtained by chance? She now believes Hudson lacks a heart because he is a demon from the farthest reaches of shell.

"Get the hell out. Get out!" she yelled out loud when she could finally hear her own voice, her tears still falling.

He looked at her and considered what she had said.

"I despise you, Hudson! Please leave. I never want to see your face again. Leave... Leave! " Her entire body trembled in pain and rage.

She was in tears. She will never fall in love with the wrong person again. Her baby's death is much more painful, and it is killing her. Her baby has a firm grip on her. Hudson is entirely to blame!

Throughout her life, she did not appear to be wealthy. Yes, she came from a poor family, but that was no reason to buy her money. Because she could never be bought with money for her dignity and character. She simply got caught up in something complicated, and in the end, she was the loser. She's a moron! She now believes that her stupidity is what has caused her pain.

Instead of Hudson following her request and leaving her in that lonely room, a needle pierced her arm, and before she knew what had been injected into her, she felt the weight of her eyelid and strong forces pulling her to sleep.

"I... I hate yyou..." she said softly, and she felt his strong arm catch her.

WHEN she opened her eyes again and stared straight at the ceiling, she felt nothing but emptiness. She was alone in that white room when she noticed a flower basket on one side. She gave a bitter smile as tears streamed down her cheeks.

"Abhaya!" Vraiellah rushed up to her and hugged her as she walked in. "Cuhen and Herrence mentioned you, so I rushed here."

She cried, especially in front of the woman, and responded with a hug, crying and crying. She has nothing to cling to, and she is grateful that a new friend in the person of Ellah has visited her so that she no longer needs to wear a mask to hide the pain she is experiencing. She was too tired to act.

She also cried for nearly an hour on Ellah's shoulder while she stroked her hair. She simply stopped crying when she felt she had nothing else to cry about and was exhausted. Ellah sympathetically extended her hand as she leaned back on the bed.

"Abhaya," he begins.

"I... Lost mmy baby..."

"Please,' don't bring it up first. It'll be more painful with you," Ellah predicted.

She gave a bitter smile. Since she entered Hudson's life, when has her life been good? "Ellah, it's fine that he won't hold me accountable, but... But..." her tears flowed once more. She assumed her tear ducks were already dry.

Ellah quickly wiped her tears away and comforted her. Ellah's presence reminded her of a sister, which made her cry even harder. But she couldn't accept that there was no longer any, that the angel she had named had vanished, even though she didn't know whether it was boy or a girl. She wasn't even allowed to kiss it.

Her mind is awake, and she is not sleepy. She could tell it was night because of the clock on the wall. It is 11:14 p.m. Ellah, who had been caring for her, had already left, so she gave her milk and peeled an apple to fill her stomach with something.

But she's deafeningly deafeningly deafening She gave a wry smile and stood up. It's a good thing Hudson didn't show up that day because she despised him. This is why she had to give up everything. Everything! Hudson broke not only her heart, but also her life.

She examined her hand with an IV, and despite the fact that her left hand was plaster cast, she forced herself to remove the object that was stuck in her right hand. She also took out the oxygen tube that was attached to her nose. She gets rid of everything that is clinging to her.

She was only aware of pain. She smiled bitterly, enjoying the numbness she felt. She tried to stand up by lowering her foot to the cold marble. She began by weighing herself if she could, and then she began to move. There's no reason to stay in this hospital for too long. She wants to get out of this crazy room because she can't stay in this lonely room any longer.

No one noticed her as she walked down the cold corridor. Her foot went directly to the elevator, but instead of going to the ground floor, she went to the rooftop. She just wanted to feel the breeze and yell so loudly that no one could hear her. She ignored the blood dripping from her hand from the IV she had just pulled.

Abhaya was greeted by a strong and cold wind, but she couldn't feel the cold because she was completely numb. She couldn't feel the air, but she could feel the extreme pain in the depths of her heart, and tears fell, indicating how much she is hurting right now. When she looked up, she noticed that the bright moon was now staring at her.

“Why? Why did you allow all of this to happen to'me'? What are your justifications? Wwhy?"

"Don't ask the moon; it never answers."

She came to a halt in her sobbing and turned to face the source of the voice. She noticed a man standing on the side of the road in her hazy vision. It will fall from its lofty perch with just one wrong step.

"Are you going to jump?" she asked, her voice trembling. She didn't want to be present when someone committed suicide right in front of her eyes.

It just shrugged. "No," he said flatly, not even looking her in the eyes.

She wiped away her tears. "What is the point of standing there? If you make one wrong move, you will die."

"It's just like life; one wrong step and everything is ruined. Don't worry, I'm just admiring the scenery," he admitted openly. "Every day, life fucked us, but the secret is to learn to fuck back or you'll get fucked up."

She was unable to respond to anything he said, so she simply stared at him.

Tears welled up in her eyes as he said those words. He was right, and she had no idea who he was. She averted her gaze, embarrassed for herself, because everything it said struck a chord in her soul. It was a wakeup call for her, but why can't she accept what happened, or does she simply refuse to accept?

She took a step back to her starting point. "Tthank you," she said, but her heart was still pounding. How could she hurt Hudson when he was a demon disguised as a human?

"My family was ambushed, and I was the only survivor."

In response to the man's sad voice, she came to a halt and closed her eyes. It hurt even more, but she said nothing; she simply let it speak for itself.

"I finally killed those cretinous terrorists who murdered my family a long time ago."

"What do you mean?" she inquired, her gaze fixed on it. She realized he had to say something to her.

"Do you want to fight back, forget everything, and get away from reality?" He took a step back and faced her, his hands clasped in his black pants. It wasn't until now that she noticed it was dressed inside with a white shirt overlaid with a leather jacket. Despite the fact that he was a stranger, she was unafraid of him. "Take my hand in yours." It reached out its hand. "And I'll help you."

She saw hope in that is waiting for her when she looked at his hand. Because of the pain she was feeling, she approached it slowly and without hesitation, reaching for its open palm. She was unconcerned about what happened the next day or the day after that.

"What brings the two of you here?"

"Are you still looking for her?" Azael chuckled.

He didn't say anything. He quickly shut down the laptop and took out a cigarette, which he lit in front of his two friends, who was sitting comfortably on his office couch.

"Azael, you nailed it. Herrence is still looking for that runaway Abhaya," Cuhen laughed out loud, claiming that Cuhen only laughs once in a blue moon. Odd. Love has a unique effect on people.

Love? In the case of his bestfriend Cuhen, maybe. He isn't a believer in the fucking shite known as love. Everyone has their own set of beliefs, and he's clearly missing something. He's most likely not human. He believes every woman who calls him a heartless devil. It would be much better if they referred to him as a robot.

"I'm going to take a break on my yacht." Dupes, I'll see you around."

His two idiotic friends laughed. He simply shrugged and walked away. He will never run out of money, even if he does not work as a doctor or a businessman for a year. Millions of dollars are still pouring into his business and hospital accounts. He's a young hot Doctor and Businessman, so he can't blame the women who want to seduce him at the age of 29.

How many women have attempted to bind him around his neck? He couldn't count them, and it was all because of his wealth. Women, their fucking lies, and their avarice. He would never let them use him; instead, he would use them and discard them.

He was sleeping inside his yacht, which was now moored in the middle of the ocean. He pondered but was unable to do so until someone trying to shot him. Damn! He knelt and crawled into the room quickly. He took the powerful type of weapon that had been hidden. Bullshit! Someone seemed to want to kill him again at that time.

ABHAYA is looking at the right side of the sea. It's been nearly two years since she disappeared completely like a bubble. No one knows where she is, not even her family, but she sent all of her savings and a personal letter stating that she will be gone for months, if not a year. Then she pretended to be someone who had gone missing. Nobody knows whether she is alive or dead. Yx is the only one who sends money anonymously to her family for daily expenses.

"Kienne, Yx is calling you," Jackylyn awoke from her reverie.

They are very close. She recalls the girl being bloodied and scarred when she arrived on the island last year, and she was among those who showed up to watch.

"Has he shown up yet? Didn't I think he was in Russia looking for his next target?" She shifted her gaze to her companion.

"Go to his office. Perhaps Yx will assign us something!" Her face lit up and ecstatic about what was said.

She burst out laughing. It was just a new assignment. She said her goodbyes to Jackylyn and walked a few meters to Yx's office. She is well acquainted with Yx. It was as if they were best friends, with a wall between them.

Yx was the man who assisted her that night, and she is now a woman who is not afraid to face the world. She was able to keep up even though she was wearing a mask. The Abhaya woman who used to be a fool has changed dramatically. She is the woman who can and will kill anyone who stands in her way.

As she sat in the chair in front of her desk, she called out the man's name, "Yx."

It looked up the information and then quickly returned to the folder being read. Before it spoke, there was a brief moment of silence. It's Yx's nature that when they talk, it's as if she's being eaten alive by its eyes.

"New assignment," he said, "And this one isn't too dangerous. All you have to do is ensure his safety... ”

"Waitwait, his?" She emphasizes the 'his' part and raises an eyebrow.

She was bored and just stared at the ballpen Yx was holding. Why hire them us bodyguard? She didn't like that type of work, so she was disappointed.

"He's a busy man, and many people are trying to kill him, and it's up to you and Jacky to figure out who is behind who wants to kill him."

She gave a nod. Deal. She doesn't mind whatever project or assignment Yx assigns them as long as it's challenging. But, in any case, Yx ordered it, and it was as simple as pie for her. One of the most difficult things they did was join Yx in raiding the major drug syndicates in China. They nearly caught her and shot her in the stomach.

She accepted the assignment without first reviewing the profile of the person she needed to protect 24 hours a day, seven days a week. She simply went out and went to the sea. Jackylyn will handle those reading stuff.

When she escaped from the hospital that night with Yx, he led her to this island. She counted about thirty people on the island, all of whom were training and sparring with one another. There, she discovered that Yx was an exarmy member. When his wife and son died, he exacted his vengeance and formed a clandestine organization.

Mostly with agents like her, who have no real experience and have only developed talent and skills as a result of a traumatic past. That is what drove them to remain firm and fight like a thief in the dark. Nobody is going to notice.

That is not the case with Yx. In fact, he is in her late thirties. He's both handsome and stunning. It's ironic because nearly every female agent has a crush on him. She was nothing at all.

Neither was the training she had taken for granted. Tears and pain became an investment for her just to get to this point. She trains all hours of the day and night, from the fundamentals to survival. How to use a gun, a knife, a sword, and how to kill with only one hand and one foot. She isn't very good at cyber, so she always has a partner, and that partner is Jackylyn.

Abhaya drive the car that Yx had given them. While Jackylyn examines the folder containing the background of the person they will be watching. Mostly, Jackylyn tells her what she needs to know. She is a slacker when it comes to reading, which irritates her at times.

They stopped in front of a big mansion worth millions of dollars. Jackylyn no longer accompanying her inside. After all she's the only one needed. Jackylyn is like a lookout. Yx was no longer with her because he was flying to China the next day, and Yx was confident in their abilities.

She wore red stilettos, a red spaghetti top, a white faux leather jacket, and sexy high waist jeans. Her body is curved, and she does not appear to be an undercover agent. She look like a run away model. She's not the same person she used to be. Who would have guessed she'd act like this now, as if she owned the world?

She was still wearing sunglasses when she went inside, where the maid directed her after she said her fictitious name. She rolled her eyes at the house's luxury, but she didn't have time for it.

She noticed a man and woman in their late 60s in the living room. She quickly approached them and shook their hands after introducing herself as the one sent by Yx. She looked around, hoping to spot the man she'd be watching so she could finish the job.

"We know our son will be upset, especially since we took a girl, but we don't have a choice; we desperately need it. He almost died and was burned inside the yacht the other day," said the lady, clearly upset by the incident.

After all, what mother isn't concerned about the safety of her child? "I understand you, Mrs—" She took off her sunglasses and wait for it to reply.

“Mrs. Hayes. ”

She was flabbergasted and drew back her tongue. Her heart skipped a beat when she heard the lady's last name. Hayes? She was shaken, and maybe it was just a coincidence that her last name was the same as the man she no longer wanted to see. Who cares? She was no longer interested in the man.

"You can rely on me, Mrs. Hayes. I solemnly promised that we'd do everything to protect your son," she said flatly, but everything she said was true.

"Thank you Ms. Kianna Trunt, we're glad to hear that," the couple said at the same time.

"Who is she?" A voice echoed through the house like thunder and lightning.

She stood up and turned around gracefully to introduce herself to the man, bringing her world to a halt for a brief moment. The man in front of her now was the man she didn't want to see again, the man she had cursed to die!

She immediately removed the shock and reapplied the mask, which should not have been used because she had buried it for a long time. She pretended not to recognize him and smiled sweetly at him.

I'm going to kill you on this one, Yx. This is complete nonsense. She screamed in her head.

She could see the shock in Hudson's eyes when he saw her and obviously couldn't believe the sight of her beauty. She wanted to laugh sarcastically; it was impossible that Hudson still knew her, and just in case, she might hang a medal around his neck with great verve. It should be honored for that!

"Hello, my name is Kianna Trunt! Your personal assistant, also known as your bodyguard. Nice to meet you, Doctor Hayes," she said emphatically. She is disgusted even when she pronounces his name. Hudson's face was expressionless as she stared at him and stepped closer to her.

"Son, we hired—"

"Don't worry, Mom, she's hired," he said, interrupting his mother.

The two elders were stunned and looked at each other, obviously unable to believe what they were witnessing, but they did not speak any further. Excitement can be seen in their eyes, and it appears that they had no hesitation in agreeing to escort her.

"What's your name again?" Hudson sat on the single sofa.

She sat up and smiled with no emotion. "Kiana Trunt."

It stared her down as if he was reading her, and she just let him because Hudson could never read her. If she'd known Hudson was the man they're protecting, she'd never agreed to this assignment!

"You look familiar," he said flatly.

"Really?" She didn't want to answer him, but she didn't have a choice.

"I believe we should leave. Bye, son. We're still going to see Cuhen's twin. Kiana, we'll go first. Thank you once again." Ahis parents say as they wave her goodbye. She only nodded.

She was awed by the news that Ellah and Cuhen had twins and secretly smiled, happy for the couple. How would Ellah react if they saw each other? It's ironic because this is her first assignment in the Philippines. She mostly digs her own grave abroad.

Hudson immediately let her come to his meetings. Surprisingly, Hudson never complained about her role as his bodyguard, despite the fact that she is a woman. Pfff! Maybe it's one of those women he hurt before who are trying to kill him now. Protecting him? She wanted to laugh. She might have backed out if it hadn't been for Yx and if she had just read the information.

They were sitting alongside in the passenger seat, both silent. She and the young Doctor both just stared straight ahead. This is the most difficult assignment she has ever had! Her fist was clenched. Why, of all people, is she still here with the person she still despises?

"What agency do you work for, Ms. Trunt?"

She twisted her eyeball in private. She would rather not speak, but since he is now the boss, she's obligated to answer every question.

"Ask your mother about it, Doctor Hayes."

He gave her a surprised look, but she ignored it. She's too tired to give a damn.

"She looks exactly like you," he said later, his gaze fixed on the road.

She did not respond. She simply looked ahead and hoped that they would arrive at their destination. The only thing that bothers her is that she watches him 24 hours a day, seven days a week, which means she can always see Hudson.

She tried to sneak a glance at him and read him with her eyes, but nothing changed; Hudson was difficult to read. Abhaya noticed that the man had changed a lot during her nearly twoyear absence. It grew even hotter and more devilishly handsome. His hair was a mess on top, and the scent of the aftershave indicated that he had just shaved. She was shaken as she remembered the man was a demon.

When she saw the Hayes Group of Hospitals, she clenched her fist. Her heart felt like it was pounding as she remembered the past. How many nights does she cry while sleeping and waking up every time she recalls the reason for her child's death? She should have been the little angel who was now smiling at her.

As they exited the car, she quickly erased that from her mind. Kianna Trunt is her name, and former Abhaya Kienne Sahada is no longer with us.

Hudson took the lead, with her close behind. She looked around and read every human movement; she didn't notice anything unusual, but everyone who passed by was staring at them. She was, in fact, wearing sunglasses. She wanted to laugh but didn't want to look like a lost model that day, so she followed Hudson's lead.

She spotted Jackylyn in the lobby, dressed formally and holding a folder in one hand. It gave her a go signal by waving at her. She simply nodded, and they proceeded to the man's elevator. She would not want to enter this hospital if she were to be questioned. There were many bad memories left here, and she admits that she is still hurt by what happened to this day.

"As my bodyguard, I'd like to clarify something with you."

"Shoot!" she uttered as the elevator open for them.

Hudson paused for a moment, taken aback by her response. "Are you certain you'd be able to handle this job? You're frail and—" he cast a brief glance at her, "a woman. "

She couldn't help laughing. She didn't respond, but quickly moved her fist to Hudson's face, which he also avoided as if he expected her to hit him. But she wasn't finished yet, and because they were the only two in the elevator and there was plenty of space, she immediately hooked her hand on his and her other hands hit the man's face. As before, the young doctor was able to make ends meet with only one hand.

She was attacking him while the elevator is going to 47th floor, while Hudson did nothing but dodge his punch. Hudson used one hand while she used her hand and elbow. She believes she was vastly underappreciated! She moved faster and faster until her fist shattered the glass wall.

She quickly turned around behind Hudson and nudge his neck with her elbow, but he resisted once more. Hudson was caught off guard when one of her knees caught him and struck the man's thigh. She grinned as it bent to its knees. She attacked again, intending to give it a strong kick in the face, but Hudson unexpectedly pulled her foot away.

She fell and was only saved by the floor. It spilled out even after her sunglasses were removed. Hudson grins as if to show her defeat, but she quickly clasps a leg around its neck and turns to ride it on his neck using an unusual technique.

Hudson was lying down on the floor, but she didn't seem to mind. As she rode him in front, she smiled at the feeling of victory. She was unaware of how awkward their situation was.

"Now tell me, Doc Hayes, I'm still just 'a woman?’" she snarled.

But she wasn't expecting the sudden movement of their bodies, and she had no idea how Hudson managed it because she was certain she was tightly gripping Hudson's neck. She exclaimed when she realized the two of them were in a bad position.

She was now trapped on both sides because she was under him and the young doctor was on top of her. Their hands clasped, and the weight of him was one of the factors that brought her to a halt. Bullshit! It increased the pressure on her, preventing her from moving.

It gave her a soulstirring gaze, "Tell you what, Ms. Trunt? I win." There is no emotion.

They were on the 27th floor when the elevator doors opened exactly on time. She had probably taken the elevator for the longest time in her life. As if nothing had happened, the man stood up, picked up his attaché case, and walked out first.

She took a deep breath and closed her eyes for a moment to cool down before picking up the broken sunglasses. It was only then that she realized one of her hands was covered in wounds and was bleeding profusely. She quickly went out and followed the Doctor before her memory betrayed her.

She is grateful, and she no longer cares about him. She is filled with hatred and disgust, and one day she will retaliate in a way that will cause him even more pain. She promised his parents that she would protect him, and she will do so for the time being.

All she has to do now is figure out who wants to kill Hudson as soon as possible so she can break free from the man's grip. When she sees his emotionless eyes, it's as if she's dragged back in time, and it hurts her heart even more.

She sat on the couch, bored. She was also unconcerned about the bleeding hand. She has been numb for a long time, but she still hurts when she recalls the past, which she has long forgotten. That wouldn't be a problem, she said with a shake of her head. The agony she felt was the reason she became like this, brave, and able to stand in front of Hudson as if nothing had happened. She became friends with the pain that had always enslaved her over time.

Hudson stood up and approached her, darkfaced, quickly taking her hand. She raised an eyebrow. It was only then that she noticed he was carrying a medicine kit.

She quickly withdrew her hand, "Thanks, but no thanks."

"I'm the doctor here."

"Doctor Hayes, this is my life. I don't care if you're the local doctor; I know how to look after myself. See? There were no wounds on my body that never healed during my assignment. Doctor Hayes, pain keeps me alive," she said solemnly as she stood up. She dashed down the hall to the restroom to clean the wound herself.

Hudson's eye met Kianna's for a split second, and he frowned. How did it find the hallway leading to his office's restroom? He has a large private office with a houselike interior design. If he does not need to go home, there is a room across the door, a small kitchen with a coffeemaker on the right side, and a restroom next door.

He had a gut feeling, but he remained silent. When he saw it earlier in the mansion, his heart almost skipped a beat. The woman resembles Abhaya. Everything, from the posture to the expression, is perfect. Only one does not, and that is proficiency in martial arts, particularly Judo. He was only surprised by the part where it made him kneel. He, Azael, and Cuhen have sparred before, but he win, and the opponent never gets him to his knees, so he knows the woman is good.

Ironically, he agreed right away because it looked like the woman he had been looking for through the computer and his AI robot up until now, so yes was his answer. He had the impression that if it wasn't the woman he was looking for, it was her sister or twin. He will investigate Kianna Trunt's background. The woman approached him mysteriously, and he noticed a dull in her eye that indicated hidden hatred and anger. He must determine whether the two women, Abhaya and Kianna, are the same.

When Kianna walked in, he was already at his table, reading documents. It has long dark brown hair that is pony tailed. Her expression has changed to one of ferocity. He looked at the woman, and what he saw was a woman named Abhaya who had long since left and vanished like a bubble.

"Abhaya..." he said nonchalantly. He didn't see any emotion or even the expected shock in the girl's eyes. It just kept the aura calm until it sat down on the couch again.

"Your woman?" She said it without hesitation and cast a quick glance at her alreadywrapped hand in bondage.

He didn't respond. He returned his gaze to what he was doing, but he was even more uneasy in his seat due to the many questions that raced through his confused mind.

ABHAYA was bored sitting on the single couch and wanted to leave, but she held back herself when Jackylyn came in after it knocked. Jackylyn rolled her eyes as she confidently walked towards Hudson. Her friend is making use of her charm once more.

"Dr. Hayes, Mrs. Hayes has sent me here as your new secretary. I apologize for being two hours late; I was involved in an accident on the way."

Abhaya laughed inwardly at what her friend said. What exactly is that alibi? She wished to thrash her. Who would a reasonable employee expect to arrive late in the morning?

Hudson, on the other hand, remained silent. It also didn't look up to see who had come in. He simply pointed to the front seat, and Jacky walked straight there and sat. Abhaya cast a glance at the man, who appeared to be preoccupied with his work. Is Hudson unaware of how lovely his secretary will be?

Perhaps she should remind her friend that Hudson was a demon in human form whose strong charisma caused hundreds of women to cry and shed tears. Jackylyn may fall for Hudson.

She will admit that Hudson's movements are very agile and he cannot be knocked down easily, but she still wonders why Hudson hires a bodyguard if he is so much better than her. She didn't realize Hudson had hidden skills and talents in the cyber world when she was madly in love with him. That, if anything, is no longer surprising. With an IQ of 170, it's no surprise that he always comes out on top.

But when she closed her eyes, she had no idea she had fallen asleep because she was so bored. She wasn't used to sitting all the time, so she didn't know how many hours or minutes she slept on the couch, and she was tired of the two of them sparring. And their past came back to haunt her.

She has no idea how she dragged herself home after the most humiliating experience she has ever had with Doc Hayes. Is there anything wrong with her being a virgin? Shit! It should be thankful, but why does it appear that the bomb blew him up?

A few weeks passed. Fortunately, she never saw him again, and she vowed never to go to any of the bars again after that. It's terrifying to be as beautiful as she is. She stopped flirting with any man on the phone because her mind was too preoccupied. The bar encounter replayed in her mind, probably because no matter how hard she tried to forget the man named Hudson, she remembered the entire incident even more vividly.

She dashed downstairs to the elevator after it had passed 10 p.m. She was ravenous and ready to devour people, despite the fact that she had been exhausted all day. She worked extra hours due to the volume of her reports, and Freia was absent because if she had just been here, it would have helped her until the end.v

She reentered the private elevator in a hurry, wanting to get home. Inside, she was alone, and she blinked briefly while leaning against the glass wall. She didn't bother looking who walked in as long as she closed her eyes and hoped it was her bed room when she got out. She felt as if someone was staring at her, so she opened her eyes and saw the face of the man who was torturing her good sleep every night.

She was caught off guard. When she saw his very handsome face, all her tiredness and hunger vanished, but when she remembered what had happened to them at the bar, her face turned bright red. Her gaze was lowered as she averted her gaze. She's hoping Hudson won't notice her. To avoid his presence, she abruptly pressed the elevator number for the next stop. Her knees begin to buckle! She hurried to step out of the elevator as soon as it opened, but she felt someone pull her arm back.

As his lips met hers, her eyes widened automatically. Hudson kissed her on the lips! She pushed him, but his hand was wrapped around her waist and one hand was supporting her head, preventing her from moving. She didn't want to be humiliated in front of him again. She hasn't had a boyfriend yet!

But Mary, Mary, Mary! His luscious sinful lips tempt her to kiss him back, which she does. She had completely forgotten everything. She hugged Hudson's neck, and their kiss brought her danger and a strange message. He pressed her up against the wall, raised her hand, and kissed her even more passionately. Hudson was like a ravenous wolf who could not be stopped.

Hudson dragged her to his milliondollar car in the parking lot. She silently obeyed the young doctor, as if he were the center of her universe at the time, and her entire life revolved around him. Hudson kissed her on the cheek as they exited his car. She didn't know where Hudson had taken her as long as she knew the kiss he gave her was making her go insane all over again. Hudson carried her, her thigh encased in his waist. Nothing really, she's still smitten by his delectable lips.

She felt the soft sofa behind her and it was only then that Abhaya realized she was no longer dressed. Make her two breasts visible to him. Hudson immediately undressed her. It ripped her skirt, and there's nothing but cloth covering her treasure. She was insane because the next thing she felt was its tongue, and no one said Hudson ate her. She grabs his hair. Merde! She'll die in fucking pleasure! She just wished Hudson wouldn't leave her again.

"Shh... I'll try to be gentle. Damn!” Hudson hugged her, but Abhaya sensed that his manhood had not yet entered her halfway.

She wrapped her arms around his neck and dug her nails into his back. Her entire world is trembling for Mary's sake! Hudson, on the other hand, assisted her in overcoming her pain. When it finally entered, it paused for a moment and stared at her.

When it started to move, the pain she had felt before was mixed with a little delight. The pleasure and the pain were mixed, and she completely surrendered herself to the man in those moments, not knowing what would happen next to her. She finally gave up her prized pearl.

Someone slapped Abhaya in the cheek, jolting her awake. She raised an eyebrow at Jackylyn and crossed her arms in front of her. Only then did she realize she had fallen asleep and had been transported back to a time she no longer desired.

"I'll give you a hint, Hudson left," Jackylyn said as it rolled its eyes and turned away from her.

She jumped to her feet and grabbed her shoulder bag, which contained two guns. Shit! Why didn't Hudson wake her up at all, or to put it another way, why didn't she wake up? Was she preoccupied with her dream?

When she approached him while opening his car, he was exactly in the parking lot. She bolted and jumped into the driver's seat. She smirked in her head as she noticed the young Doctor's stunned expression.

"Hop in!" she said, motioning to the passenger seat. She will drive, both reluctantly and willingly.

It was like a gentle puppy who did as she said. He jumps in. He's just staring at her as if she's a stunning woman... Oh well, she's always been stunning. Hudson, on the other hand, can't fool her any longer.

No, Hudson, not again!

"Location?" she asked, not looking at him. She was simply looking ahead.

"Malcogn's Empire."

She simply raised an eyebrow. She swerved the car into the middle of the road. It's time to go! She smiled as she pressed the gas pedal.

“Bullshit! Are you trying to murder me?" he yells.

On the other side of her brain, she laughed. Really? Is it frightening? Isn't it just normal for her? Isn't it exciting?

"Nope," she said as she drove the car even its red light. Hudson yelled because the car was on the verge of being hit by a large vehicle.

Her 30minute drive was reduced to 15 minutes. On the other end of the line, she could hear Jacky laughing. She wore earrings and a necklace that linked the two of them. Jackylyn is now watching over them. She was aware that her friend could overhear their conversation.

“Fuck! Don't do that again, woman, or I'll fire you," he said sternly, his handsome face flushed with anger and frustration, but she didn't care when Hudson got out of the car.

While she was standing next to him, it flew straight into the very giant company. Her beautiful face drew attention once more, as it always did. She simply smiled at that point.

Hudson stayed in Cuhen's office for two hours, while Abhaya chose to wait outside. She was starving. What time is it exactly? Because of this man, she almost forgot the time. She looked around and noticed that CCTV protected every area, so she decided to go to the canteen because her stomach was grumbling. She needed to fight with a full stomach.

She was in the middle of eating when a man approached her and asked to sit in front of her. Because the other seats in the canteen were already occupied at lunchtime, she only nodded.

"What department are you in?"

She looked at him for a moment, and she smiled because she could read the man's intentions kindly and cleanly. "I work for the Hayes Group of Hospitals. I'm not employed here. ”

He laughed at her direct response. "I see..." he said, nodding and holding out his hand. "By the way, my name is Zerus. Nice to see you here," he said with a smile and two dimples on his cheek.

"Kianna," pause. "It's a pleasure to meet you," she said, reaching for his hand. Only then did she realize Zerus was more than just a human being in front of her, that heaven had blessed him with good looks, but Abhaya had had enough of that stage. She believes her heart is numb.

The new acquaintance is entertaining to converse with, and she occasionally laughs at his jokes. They had just come to a halt when Hudson appeared in front of them.

"We're leaving right now, Ms. Trunt.”

She hadn't even finished her meal when the young doctor grabbed her arm and yanked her away. Those who saw them sighed, while others shuddered. They aren't even a couple! When she turned to face Zerus, he simply smiled, as if to reassure her that everything was fine and that there was still time for them to meet. It even said its goodbyes to her.

Hudson's grip on her arm was so tight that he almost broke it. He said nothing to her. She couldn't tell what was going through the young doctor's mind because his face was devoid of emotion. Why is it that she can't get into this man's head when it comes to this?

Hudson was driving when they returned to his car. It no longer allows her to hold the wheel since he fears she will crash his expensive car, which is correct! She wanted to crash his car in order to wake it up to the fact that it lacked a heart, but she didn't want to do it. She assigns it to him to protect him since that is her job.

"Shit!" she yelled as the driver's side window shattered. Fortunately, the man was not shot.

"Fuck!" He cursed the wind.

She quickly snatched the wheel from the man and threw him to the ground. He refused, but she pulled the young doctor's collar when a series of gunshots rang out in the car. She bent it quickly, and she was the one who got to drive. Because she was so small, she was able to effortlessly swap positions with the man.

"Track the shooter," she said confidently, pulling the car into the middle of the road. She'll play with Satan again today.

"I can't find the shooter," Jacky said immediately over the phone.

She paused her words. All she did was pull over and compete for a ride with the vehicles. Thank God, and no one shot them. Hudson's opponent is determined to depose the young doctor, but it appears that time has not agreed to spare his life.

"Slow down."

She ignored his emotionless voice. It was already sitting neatly, and his gaze was fixed on the road.

"Slow down or I'll fire you right now."

"Why don't you give it a shot?"

"Ms. Trunt—"

"I'm driving. Shut up." She slowed the car. No one is following them and that's good. She cast a secret glance at Hudson, who was quiet and deep in thought. She wanted to read his mind, but she couldn't. "Where are we going next?"

"Cemetery," he said, then gave the location.

She scowled. What are they going to do there? Will it dig its own grave? She laughed at the thought. She can even dig his grave. They were completely silent throughout the journey.

They stopped at the entrance to the private cemetery, and she waited for the man to emerge, but he just stared at the entrance, as if deep in thought. Abhaya remained silent as she secretly studied Hudson's face. Was she correct about what she saw? She could tell Hudson was in pain, but it went away quickly.

"I'm unable to track anything. The person who wanted to kill Doctor Hayes was kinda hard to track." Jacky's voice drew her attention. She didn't respond. She started walking towards the car.

"Where should we go next?"

"Mansion," he said quickly.

"Shoot!" The vehicle began to move down the wide road. She was eager to race again with the other driver.

HUDSON was occupied while he was in a private underground room with his AI robot. That room wasn't for nothing; all the things he invented when he was younger were there, but he didn't have time because he was too busy running his hospital and business.

He examined the bullet from the gun that had been used on him earlier and had nearly killed him. Clean. There are no tracable fingerprints. He turned on the laptop, and his AI, Travis. This is how he locates and accesses everything that happened previously.

He got a lead during its threehour CCTV scan of each building, but it wasn't clear because it was wearing a hat and a mask. He sighed briefly and leaned back in his seat. If anyone wants to run into him, make sure he's knocked out first, or else he might drag them to his grave.

"Travis, please save those files."

Travis replied, "Files saved."

He turned to the laptop and read the information obtained, "Kianna Trunt," he said without hesitation.

Kianna Trunt, 25, single, halfPinay and halfBritish...

When Farhistt called, he opened his mouth and said, "Hey?"

They are not a particularly close friend. It has its own world, and so he did. He and Azael were only speaking to Cuhen. When the group is present, the two of them only speak occasionally. They are only conversing because of Cuhen.

"How are you doing? Is my acquaintance's private bodyguard doing her job?"

He was stunned and stared at his cellphone despite the fact that he couldn't see Farhistt's face. Even though they weren't in the same room, he could tell Farhistt was laughing because a woman was watching over her as a bodyguard. Damn! Farhistt teases him, which is awkward because he rarely speaks.

“Fuck! I've got to go, I'm busy," he said as he turned off his phone and began looking for the thing he should have looked for.

ABHAYA stood up and turned to face her laptop. She only had two suitcases, one for clothes and one for combat equipment, but she couldn't use all of them. Jackylyn transmits a file. She opened it, her face turning sour when she saw the young Doctor's face, which was devoid of a smile.

"What exactly is this?" she wrote in response to Jackylyn's email.

"Doctor Hudson Herrence Hayes," he says. "The man is the reason for everything you've been through and why you've come under Yx's control."

She took a long time to respond, and she didn't say anything. She knew Jacklynn was inquisitive about everything, and she couldn't blame her.

"Would you like to withdraw? Just say it, and let's go," she concluded with a laugh and a loud emoticon.

It even wanted to make a joke with her.. If it had been right next to her, she would have beaten the woman. "No. We're already here, so let's get this done. All we need now is the lead to get out of here."

"Copy, Captain!"

She shut down the laptop and faced the two guns on top of the side table. She gave a bitter smile. Her body almost gave up during her first training on the island due to the extreme hardship. How many bullets were wasted in each of her unsuccessful shots? All of this, and the reason she's here now is because she's enraged at Hudson. She'll make certain that she plays to his destiny and wins.

When her phone rang, she quickly answered it. "Speaking," she said to Yx.

"How was your first day? Is there a problem?”

"Why did you give me this assignment?" she asked, angrily. "Don't we both know about my past?"

"Abhaya Kienne, you are in his power as a private bodyguard, not as the woman he previously hurt. I assumed you were fine with it. I never heard you disagree, so I assumed you'd moved on."

She was taken aback. Yes, this is correct. In her demeanor, she appears to be demonstrating that she has not forgotten Hudson up to this point, or the correct question, has she truly forgotten Hudson? She sighed and bid Yx farewell. She will not combine her professional and personal lives.

While waiting for Hudson to come out of his room, Abhaya leaned against the door leaf outside her room. Her favorite gun was tucked between her thighs. She's stunning and wearing a sexy black strappy plunging back bodycon fit dress. She didn't want to look like a boring bodyguard next to Hudson, so she chose a sexy dress that would allow her to move quickly if they got into another fight.

She checked her phone's timer: 15 minutes until the young doctor emerged from his room. Of course, she already knew because all she could do last night was read his background report. The information provided is basic, but at the very least she knows where he always goes, favorite bars, waking hours, and when he leaves the mansion.

As it came out, their eyes locked. Again, she couldn't tell what it was thinking. There is a barrier, and Abhaya realizes she will not be able to enter Hudson's brain right away.

"Doctor Hayes, I'll meet you downstairs." She didn't wait for the man to nod before turning around.

THEY arrived at a hospital in Quezon City safely. Everyone who sees them, especially Hudson, is clearly terrified of Hudson's aura. All she did was smile and nod in response to every greeting and nod from Hudson's staff and nurses.

"Don't do it," he warned.

"Do what?" she asked, knowing exactly what he meant.

"You understand what I mean, Ms. Trunt."

"Doctor Hayes, don't start with me. They, too, are human, just like me. Unless I'm a beast."

He stopped and looked at her without emotion in his eyes. "If you were doing it to get the attention of my male employees, keep doing it."

She sneered at him, but she didn't hit him in the face. Hudson already eat breakfast, so what is going on in this man's head? She ignored it, continuing to smile and nod to everyone.

"Hey, jerks!"

Abhaya took a look at the newcomer, who was dressed casually in jeans and a simple Tshirt, as if he were going for a walk. She was simply sitting on the sofa, artistically observing the newcomer.

"How did you know I was here?" Hudson's ask the man.

“Woah! New lady?" he asked, sitting next to her with a wink.

She was unmoved by what it did. She is skeptical that he is only her age and that he is a happygolucky guy with blue eyes.

"What's your name, mademoiselle?" He asks softly, with a devil smile. It can pass the toothpaste endorser test based on his super nice smile.

"Screw you, Theon." Hudson interrupted.

"Don't be such a jerk, bro; share this fucking gorgeous mademoiselle with me." It was on its way to her cheek, but her hand grabbed it and squeezed it.

He was in a lot of pain while laughing. "Woah!"

"Stop fooling around with me, Theonwhatever!" She then let go of his hand and shifted her seat. She took up the magazine and concentrated her attention on it.

He laughed and shrugged his shoulders away from her. It crept up to Hudson and sat on the edge of its large table. "I would like to personally invite you to my fucking birthday party tomorrow evening. I'll be waiting for you!" Without a response from Hudson, he turned away. "Goodbye, sweetheart!" As she looked up, it flew a kiss at her as she just stared at it without emotion.

She dropped the magazine on the center table as the man closed the door. "Don't leave tomorrow, your life is in danger, and it's not safe for you to go out and party first," Abhaya said flatly, not as a suggestion.

"Don't come," he said, looking up and straight at her. "I don't need you as much," he said casually.

Her blood pressure rose quietly, but she tried not to tell Hudson. She gave a silly smile. "Same here. No offense intended. But you gave me access the day you hired me as a guard."

"In that case, you've been fired."

She burst out laughing. "FYI, Mrs. Hayes hired me," she said flatly, "and you're not leaving tomorrow, the conversation is over." She then picked up another magazine and began reading it.

The next night, Abhaya has a sour expression on her face. She wore a sexy backless evening red gown with a plunging neckline and a slit that added to her beauty. Her hair was in a messy bun, and she almost wanted to bury the gun that was now between her thighs in the man's head.

"There is nothing we can do, Kienne." Jackylyn said to her other line. "All we have to do is protect him on the cruise if anyone tries to harm him. Our assignment will be completed faster as a result. Don't be concerned; I've already boarded the cruise ship. I'm already ahead because it's my time to shine, sweety!" she said before laughing.

She sighed and rolled her eyes. It's her friend's game when it comes to parties. She wished she could hang her with the medal for being boisterous. She was standing in the mansion's living room when Hudson came down the stairs and was startled when he saw her. He was dumbfounded and obviously surprised by what he saw, but only for a moment before his face returned to blank expression and he went straight down.

"Stay here. I don't need anyone to—"

When she pointed the gun at it, it couldn't finish what it was saying. "Then don't mind me if I use my precious gun to you..." she said matteroffactly, "I won't hesitate to use this gun right on your head Doctor." she scoffed arrogantly. As a result, it had no choice but to agree to take her with him wherever he was going.

That night, Abhaya was drawn to a very beautiful and elegant cruise ship. If she was questioned, such a cruise would cost billions of dollars. She wouldn't be surprised in the least. Hudson's family is not only wealthy, but fucking wealthy, so his friends too! And because of riches, these men believe every woman is like a rag because they can afford to buy them.

As they walked upstairs, she didn't let Hudson touch her waist or even her elbow. She is not mistaken; there are a lot of expensive people there, the majority of whom are in their mid30s. The entire environment is so beautiful that it screams wealth. She took a quick look around; she wasn't here to have fun, but to keep an eye on Hudson.

She saw Jacky, dressed in a black evening gown, with a man she didn't know where Jacky found and made an entrance pass. Hudson wouldn't recognize Jacky with the extra thick makeup she'd put on.

"Hello, baby!" Someone immediately approached Hudson and kissed him.

Abhaya just stood there staring at them. She shrugged her shoulder, she doesn't care if they will sex in front of her. Tonight, her top priority is his safety above all else.

"Your beauty robbed me of my sanity, Ms. Trunt."

She shifted his gaze to the speaker. This is Zerus, the man she met the day before. She held two glasses of wine and handed one to her. She accepted it with a smile. So, why not?

"Nice to see you here, Zerus," she said as she sipped her red wine. Not too shabby. She enjoyed the flavor.

He looked at her as if he had just encountered a goddess. The woman was already clinging to Hudson's arm out of the corner of her eye. She doesn't care; she's talking to Zerus, and she'd rather talk to him than Hudson.

"I wouldn't let someone like you go if I were Doctor Hayes. He didn't realize how lovely you were now. Your beauty deserved to be crowned with love and attention."

She shook her head, "I'm drowning in your compliments," she laughed.

"Hudson was staring at you like she was going to eat you alive," Jacky's voice over the phone said, followed by a soft laugh. "Also, he went upstairs with her woman."

Her mind began to work overtime. She tenderly told Zerus that she needed to use the restroom. He simply smiled and nodded. When she met Azael and Theon on the way, she hurried to follow as Jacky told her which direction Hudson was going. She was attempting to avoid Theon when he suddenly blocked her path and winked.

"Abhaya?" Azael had been staring at her for an a while.

"I'm Kianna Trunt," she said as she quickly shook Theon's hand and walked away.

"That woman is a scumbag! It's my birthday, but she treats me like a snob!"

She heard Theon say it, but all she did was roll her eyes.

At that moment, Abhaya wanted to punch Hudson. She peered into almost every room she passed to see if anyone was lying or juggling in bed. If she actually sees Hudson, he'll get a crunchy kick out of her! It causes her undue stress. Hudson was aware that it was dangerous and that she should accompany him wherever he went.

She came to the top deck while walking and searching for it. She was taken aback and smiled slightly. Nice! There is a large swimming pool, as well as a playground and a gymnasium.

As the cold, strong sea breeze greeted her, she embraced herself. The cruise ship was far from civilization, and she had lost sight of the man's search for a moment. She was the only one present, and she felt a brief silence.

She came up to the railings and stood there. She smiled as she looked up at the many stars in the sky from where she was. For a brief moment, she closed her eyes and let the wind carry her away. She sensed silence in some way.

"What brings you here?"
