Maverick played the video and Nick was left in shock. He kept looking at the screen, his eyes on the girl in it. “She is mine.” Said Nick, and Maverick immediately understood, “She is the girl who saved you? But, what is she doing here? Is it possible that she knows you and had some ulterior motives behind saving you?”“No Maverick. She didn't have any ulterior motives. I can feel the sincerity in her. If she wanted something, she would've stayed with me until the end to get her means. But, she didn't.” Replied Nick. “Then what do you think might be the reason?” Asked Maverick, confused. “I don't know the reason, but for sure she didn't want me to know her. She purposely hid her face from me. I don't know what this girl wants, but whatever it is, she is now trapped.” Said Nick with possessiveness in his voice. “You can't be serious? You can't fall in love with her like this?” Asked Maverick, shocked by Nick's words. “No, it's not love but obsession. She's my obsession and I will

Before she could protect herself, a voice sounded and left everyone in shock. “She is my fiancé.” Everyone looked back at the source of the voice and were shocked to find a handsome man standing in Ralph Lauren's hand made limited edition dress. Emma was also in shock to see the man in front of her. When he walked up to her, taking her in his arms protectively. Nick's blood was boiling at the sight of it. He wanted to rip that hand off that was touching Emma's waist. But in front of so many people, he controlled himself. When Audrey was the first one to come out of shock and replied, “Mr. Derick, we didn't know that you'll be joining us for the event. Also, is she really…"“Yes, she is my fiancé.” Said Derick with proud eyes. Before Audrey could say another word, Emma immediately held Derick's arm and said with proud eyes, “Yes, I am soon to be Mrs. Emma Derick Allen.” Derick looked at Emma confused, but Emma assured him with her eyes, after which he smiled and replied to Audre

'My wild kitten, your count-down begins today. A few more days, and you'll be mine forever, either by hook or by crook.' Said Nick with a smirk on his face. On the other side,Emma was spending her days like a lifeless soul. She couldn't understand what to do. When she received an anonymous message, “Be aware. Somebody's following you.”Emma immediately looked around her empty surroundings and saw the curtains were opened. She immediately got up and looked down from the window but found no one outside. She closed all the windows and curtains of her home. 'Isn't this quite quick. I haven't even done anything yet, Nicklaus Wesley. But, you already started keeping a watch on me.' thought Emma to herself.She went into her room searching for something through her clothes, when she found a small device, which looked like a camera. She smirked and went to her window. But, she stopped right before opening the window. She ran to her kitchen and got herself some water in the mug, and walke

Emma is desperate to know the identity of this stranger. While the stranger is all ready to claim, what's his to take. Emma did not want to take the words of a stranger so serious and decided to ignore his threats and all. She decided to head out. Since, she has been home for so many days. She dressed up and left her apartment. On the other side,Nick just came out from a long, boring meeting. He walked straight to his office. When he received a call on his phone.“Shoot.” Said Nick, annoyed. “Come on, buddy. I haven't been able to come to your office much, so I think that you have forgotten about me.” “Whatever.”“Come, let's go for drinks. It's been so long, since we had some drinks together.” Replied Maverick from the other end of the receiver.“Ok. I am on my way.”“Wahoo… This was quick. Ok, see you at the bar.” Said Maverick and disconnected the call. While Nick immediately wrapped up his work and left in his car. Upon reaching the bar, Nick entered inside and was walking

With thousands of thoughts running in mind, Emma fell asleep. Although that night was no peaceful night for her but was filled with nightmares. Six days passed by in a blink of an eye and today was the day, the stranger had promised Emma to take her. Emma didn't leave her home, to see how this all shall go on. Although she was quite scared from inside. She had no idea what's waiting for her or even if she'll be alive tomorrow either. She had no idea about it and millions of thoughts were running inside her head. When suddenly Emma heard a knock on her door, taking her in a surprise. She carefully reached the door, without making any sound and checked from the keyhole to find Mrs. Spencer standing outside. (Those of you, who don't remember Mrs. Spencer is Emma's neighbor. She has been mentioned in the previous chapters.)Emma calmed down after seeing the old lady standing outside. She calmly opened her gate and greeted the old lady. “What brings you here today, Mrs. Spencer?” Ask
