OLIVIA

My heart ached seeing all those tubes coming out of him. Just hours ago, we were having a nice dinner, and he was kissing me. Now he was laying on a hospital bed with tubes all over. We had a moment just one fleeting moment of peace and quiet before all went to hell again.

I was beginning to think that Nick’s mother was right. I was a curse, because everyone who got close to me got hurt. Look at Grandma Susan and Lupita. They were fine living a peaceful life in Summer Strand before I came along

1 brought them here and look what happened. Grandma almost died, Lupita too. Marcus was fighting for his life with no hope of waking up. It would have been fine if it were me who kept getting hurt but the people I cared about? It was too much.

“Look at you, social climber. Now that you don’t have Nick, you are looking for another man with deep pockets to support you, when will you learn Olivia that you don’t belong in our world that it was never for you, what must happen for you to understand that?” Nick’s mother said standing by the door.

Hatred and anger coated her facial features. I wiped my tears and walked towards the door. I wasn’t about to fight with her in Marcus’s room. I walked out closing the door behind me. “What exactly do you want from me? tell me.” I was exhausted and I couldn’t deal with her anymore.

“I want

it you to get the hell out of our lives and go back to where you came from. Take your father with you while you are at it.” I looked at the woman trying to remember the times when she spoiled me rotten. The times when seeing me made her day

I guess a lot has happened since then. “I wish I knew why you hate me so much now. You know I did nothing wrong, and you know I didn’t ask for Luke to kill your husband. Even if it was to avenge me, I never asked for it. So, why are you blaming me?

She scoffed flipping her beautiful hair back. “Olivia, it doesn’t matter if you asked for it or not. What matters is that he is doing it for you. why don’t you see that and save us the pity party?” she paced, and I just stood there watching her.

“Did you see how my son looked? He is hurt Olivia, but he is out there looking for your tormentor because your father ordered him to. If he refused to go, he is going to kill him. Nick is the only one I have left. My husband is dead, and I don’t want to lose my son. But because of you, that might just happen.”

I still said nothing, I felt like she wanted to vent, and I just stood there and took it. Not because I agreed with her but for all those times, she treated me well. For all the opportunities she gave me in life. But after today, she is dead to me. my debt to her will be repaid.

“I will promise you this Olivia. If something happens to Nick, I am coming after your son. You are a mother too now and if you let you father go too far and I lose my son. You will know the pain of losing a child too. Even if he kills me after, it would be worth it.”

She said then walked away. “I will never let that happen.” I slowly turn to look at the man. He was like a ghost who just appeared out of thin air. “What do you want? Why is it that you can’t see that everything you are doing is ruining my life and putting the people I care about in danger?”

He studied me for a moment. “You look just like your mother.” My chest tightened. Mother died before I could know her. I don’t even remember what she looked like anymore. I was only a child when she died. “Don’t talk about my mother!” sadness flashed through his eyes, but it was gone before I could blink.

Sara was the love of my life, but I failed her. I was a coward, and I didn’t fight for her. for the both of you. I let

Elodie’s father dictate my life, and I lost her.” that pain returned but it was gone in a flash again. Yet, I was not moved.

I struggled with grandma after mother died. He was there, watching and did nothing “I regret my life choices Olivia, but I will be damned If I let another member of the Black family ruin my life or yours. I will have them all six feet under ground before I let that happen.” noveldrama

He spoke as if killing would impress me, who the hell did he think I was. “When I was growing up, I needed you. when I went to school with broken shoes because grandma couldn’t afford to buy me new ones. I needed you. When I was sent to prison for something I didn’t do, I needed you. when I got hurt while in there, I needed you. I don’t need you now. Am fine on my own now.”

His eyes turned ice cold and the temperature around us seemed to drop. “You getting hurt in prison is what drove me over the edge, when I found out that Ellies father was the one who sent people to hurt you in Nick’s name, I started…”

“Wait,

what?”

“The man who raised me, Elodie’s father. Is the one who sent people to hurt you in prison.” My heart broke, I have never even met the man and yet he took so much from me. what did I do to deserve that from him, such cruelty?

“Don’t worry, he is dead now. I killed him.” my head buzzed; I didn’t care that he killed him, but I did want to know why he wanted to hurt me so much. “What did you do to him that he wanted to take his revenge out on me?”

He stopped pacing and looked at me. “The only thing I did that was wrong in his eyes was making contact with you.”
