Chloe’s POV
I ran to him and hugged him. We were both happy to see each other again after a long holiday.
I had hoped and long for resumption so I can get to see my boyfriend.
“I miss you Chloe.” He said with a shy smile as he placed his soft pink lips on my cheek.
I blushed. “I’ve missed you too.”
“I need to take you somewhere today, somewhere special.”
“Really?”
He nodded in reply. “As soon as you are done in school, give me a call so I can come and pick you.”
“Hum! I can’t wait.” I hugged him for few more seconds after which I walked swiftly to my class.
I have missed him so much. Ever since we vacated the previous term, I had travelled out of the country for an holiday and that has not make me set my eyes on my boyfriend.
—
I stood beside one of the pillars of the school waiting for him to show up. I had called him and he had told me he’s on his way.
He arrived few minutes later and I hopped inside his car.
“You kept me waiting, I hope you know that?”
“I’m so sorry baby, I was trying not to let my brother know I was coming here. ” he replied.
“Oh! Talking about your brother, has he changed now?”
He scoffed. “Change? I doubt if he will ever change, ever since we were younger, all he does is to steal, fight and cause trouble. He had said a number of times that he is going to create a gang in the future and steal from rich men. I told you he dropped out of school.”
“Sure, I remembered. ” I sighed. “He’s really a character.” I said and he continued driving.
I’ve never set my eyes on his brother but he has told me a lot about him, how reckless he was living and how he didn’t want my boyfriend to be with any lady. I wonder why?
It’s his life and he can choose what he wants, this is the reason why he had to sneak out of the house to get to me anytime we want to see.
After few minutes of driving, we arrived at a place that looked like an island, the view was beautiful and spectacular.
Before I could even step down to adore the place, I uttered words already; “this place looks so beautiful.”
My boyfriend helped me step down of the car and walked me up the Island to catch a better view of it.
“You like what you are seeing?”
“Yes, so beautiful. Thanks for bringing me here.” I said and we took more steps around.
He showed me pleasant surroundings around the place after which we went to sit behind a mountain, there was no one in sight and I was glad it’s just us.
I feel comfortable too. I hope that one day, I will be able to introduce my boyfriend to my dad.
After discussing randomly like a lover boy and loved girl that we were for few minutes, an image began to form from a distance and in no time, I was surprised at who I saw.
My boyfriend stood up nervously while I stand to my feet too.
“He looks exactly like you, is that your brother?” I asked him.
“Yes, how in the world did he trace me here?” He asked not directing the question to anyone.
“You said he doesn’t like you being with any lady, is there any reason for that? Will he hurt us?” I asked Kaden; my boyfriend as his twin brother approaches.
“I don’t know if he will hurt us, but.. ”
“Let’s run then.” I said nervously but it seems to late as his reckless look-alike brother stood before us.
“Kaden, why are you with a lady, I told you to stay away from ladies ” Kaden’s brother said.
“It’s my life, I have asked you several times why you don’t want me to be with ladies but you don’t give me answers. Please stay off.”
His brother chukled and shot me an annoying look. He brought out a rounded harmer and hit me at my forehead.
I wasn’t expecting that, I fell flat to the floor, I was fast loosing conscioisness but I struggled to open my eyes slightly hoping he doesn’t hurt Kaden too.
“Kian! ” Kaden shouted in pain. “She’s just a girl, you have killed her.”
Kaden angrily looked around and saw a small rock , he went to pick it and hit his brother with it.
Kian fell to the floor while I lay to the floor hoping that death takes its due course over me.
Kaden rushed to me and carried me, shouting my name as he walks…
It was the last thing I remembered.

Jace’s POV
I let my head fell before the dinning table that I was. I was drunk and sad.
“Jace! Jace! You are scaring me, this is not the you’ I know. What is wrong?” I heard Piper asked. She seems to be concerned.
I couldn’t even move my mouth, ever since I heard the rumour that Kian had proposed to Chloe and she said ‘yes’ , I have been unhappy and awful.
I feel miserable right now, so Kian will win all the money?…Chole would have thought Kian loves her and probably wants to have some kind of relationship with her not knowing he’s only playing a bet on her.
Kian! Kian! Are you going to win all the money we have worked for, for years just like that?
You are making me look like a loser.
I heard a knock on my door and I raised my head up sullenly. All this while, Piper was just staring at me.
“Open that door.” I said like a drunk man that I am. Piper obliged and a very handsome man came in.
“Hi, I’m Brandon.” He strecthed his hand but I refuse to receive it.
“Yes Mr. How can I help?”
“Erm…I thought Chloe could be here, so I came to check her.” He said.
“And who are you to her.”
“Her boyfriend.” He replied.
Chloe only told me she had an ex boyfriend not a boyfriend.
“You mean an ex boyfriend? ” I asked to be sure.
“May be, I need to see her. ” He said.
I signalled for Piper to leave and she left. I let the man sit before me.
“You still love, Chloe?” I asked.
“Yes, very well. I regret not creating time for her, I need her back in my life.” He explained.
A smile formed on my lips as an idea formed on my head.
“I can help you.” I said smiling.
“Really, I’ll be grateful. ”
“As I speak with you, there is a friend of mine with her, his name is Kian, she seems to love him and I heard rumour that she accepted his proposal, so we need to act fast.”
I could see an expression of sadness and disappointment on Brandon’s face.
“But Kian never loved her, Kian and I, alongside one of our friends placed a bet on her that the first person to f**k her receives all the money we have worked for all our lives.”
“What! You placed a bet on my girlfriend?” Brandon asked shrieking. He was getting furious.
“Point of correction, your ex girlfriend. ” I corrected sarcastically and he looked away angrily.
“I caused all this, I should not have been too busy not to have her time.”I heard him mutter to himself.
I grinned. ” calm down, will you? …have your sit.” He sat back after few seconds of hesitation.
I brought out my phone and dialed Chloe’s mobile number.
“Tell Chloe yourself that Kian never loved her, that he placed a bet on her, also tell her that, Kian is the head of those that those have been terrorizing her father’s business. Ask her if ‘Sinners gang sounds’ familiar.”
