Melissa's POV:

My life is getting scarier as the days pass. Every day, every minute feels like that it could be the last moment of my life. It feels that I have been locked up in his room for eternity.

It's been a while since I last saw him. He hardly came into this room. The only person coming in was a new young maid I don't know the name of. I have asked her many times that what is going around in this house but she just keeps the food tray on the table and leaves. And the only other people I saw these days are the two guards guarding the door outside.

Recently I heard from one of those guards that Blake's father is a very influential man. Even the police are afraid of him. He is very wealthy and highly dangerous. He is a businessman but behind his legal business, he also does illegal business which helps politicians and others. He has never been caught as he always finds the loopholes and escapes them. And if there's no loophole then the person who dares to dig about him dies a miserable death. So, Nobody questions his actions and nobody dares to go against him. He is like a godfather to every person who lives in London. He can make people's life or can destroy them within seconds. And now that he is no more, all the power is under Blake now. I am not at all positive about getting my freedom back. I can't even ask for help from the police and the locals here are also quite scared of William Family.

I miss my family so much. They would have been so worried. My mom would have freaked out. Probably the police would have been searching for me now. Blake has not allowed me to talk to them ever since that incident happened. That unknown guy barging and ugh... That guy has never left my brain. Those memories haunt me every night. That's the reason I have not even slept soundly. Although my neck is a little less swollen now due to all the medicines which I have been taking every day.

"What are you thinking Mel?"

The voice draws my attention and I look at him, standing at the door with his hands folded at his chest.

"A way to kill you?" I roll my eye and blurt out.

He laughs and I give him a questioning look.

"Why are you here? What do you want?"

"Oh, are you angry because you missed me, baby?" He walks into the room.

"Missed you? Me? Don't say the impossible please."

"Oh, I thought you would want to meet Ella. But anyway it seems your mood is bad. I will go then." He says and turns around to walk out.

Ella's name catches my attention and I immediately jump out of the bed and run to him. Is he going to let me meet her?

"Wait wait. Umm, let me meet her please, please." I make the best puppy face I could.

His corner of the lips curls upwards and he takes one step towards me and pulls me into his arms. I don't struggle as I don't want the chance to meet her. So I stay calm and look at him.

I could feel him twirling my strand of hair between his fingers at my back. He looks into my eyes deeply and his glistened eyes turn a darker shade.

"You can meet her for only 10 minutes. Not more than that. And I will be in the room."
He says and lifts me bridal style simultaneously. I don't care if he is in the room, the only thing that matters to me is to see Ella now.
He keeps chanting his rules till we reach Ella's room. He gently places me down and pecks me on the forehead. We both enter the room and I see her. My eyes well up, as soon as I see her small figure laying down on the bed with her back facing me.
I slowly walk towards her and place my hand on her shoulder.

She flinches but as soon as her eyes meet mine we both burst into tears.
We both hug each other and cry out our eyes.

"You seriously want to waste your 10 minutes in crying, Mel?"

He reminds me of the time and I glare at him.

"I am so sorry Ella it's all my fault. I am so.."

She shuts me by placing her finger on my lips. My eyes cry out a river seeing her not able to talk. She hugs me tightly.

"You are crying too much. And I can't stand that. We are leaving now." He says and grabs me by my hand and drags me away from her.

"It's not even five minutes. Please Blake let me be with her. Please." I beg and try freeing my hands from his grip.

"No, I said. It was my mistake that I allowed you to see her. We are leaving." He grabs my waist and puts me on his shoulder and starts walking.

I bang his back with my fist but to no avail. He takes me back to his room and places me on the bed.

"You are not a man of words."

"Oh really! It doesn't matter, you are mine and so is your life. So I can do however I like." He simply says and slams the door shut, leaving me alone to cry.

Blake's POV:

"Sir we have located the person who had send you that parcel a few days back."

"At least that's one good news. Get that bastard and bring him here." I order Samuel.

"And sir one more thing." He looks anxious.

"Go on."

"Sir actually in the morning Jack reported that Mam's parents are coming tomorrow. So what should we do?"

"Bring them here. Not many days left anyways. And make sure that they don't talk with anyone else except you."

"Okay, sir."

It has already been days since I received that parcel. My mother's ring was inside with a letter.

The letter

"To,
My son.

When you will read this letter I will probably be dead. I hope and believe that you are doing well without me. Mama loves you a lot, my child. Remember this my baby, that what you see might not be the real face of people. The world is cruel and they betray you at the very moment when you are too weak to stand again. But I know you are strong, very strong. You have been strong since you were a child. You rarely cried when you fell instead you stood up and walked again. You are my charm, my love, my angel. I wanted to write this letter to you so that you don't forget me. Always remember that your mama loves you the most."

A very emotional letter huh Blake. Your Mom was too good. And that became the reason for her to die.
Your poor mother. She didn't even know how your father had betrayed her. She left the world without knowing the truth. But do you know the main reason why she had to die? It was your father. Yes, your very own father who died just a week ago.
He killed so many like a piece of cake. And see, now he is dead. You will be grateful to me when you find out the truth about your father.

Lastly the reminder:
I am coming for you and Melissa. Prepare her to leave you. We will meet soon. ;)"

He had my mother's ring, he had the letter which I never knew existed until now. Who on earth is he? Whoever he is, I will never let him take away Melissa from me.

I have planned out everything. Tomorrow her parents are coming and Mel and I will get married in three days. Now she will have to accept her fate be it willingly or forced.

Unknown POV:

"Brother, how many more days? Why not destroy him now?"

"No Mark, not now. Be patient. Only three days left. Then he will lose everything." I said to him. He is impatient. He better not ruin my plan.

"What's the plan? You have not yet discussed it with me." He keeps insisting.

It's not like I won't tell him the plan. I just don't want him to ruin it beforehand that's the reason that I will tell him exactly when it is needed.

I have already thought about all of it. Blake will soon lose every single thing in his life. I have made all the arrangements already. Just three more days and his life will turn upside down.

They took my mother away, I will take away everything from him now. I have waited all these years and finally, the time is nearing. Anybody who ruins my plan will be killed by me. Even if it's someone close to me.

"Brother? Answer me."

"Uh, yeah I will, there's one thing remaining before the big plan. So let me finish that first then I will tell you." I pause and take a sip of wine before continuing again.

"Mm, about her parents. You said they were coming tomorrow right? Go prepare a gift for them and send that tomorrow." He chuckles as I mention the gift and then he leaves the room. I hope you don't disappoint me brother cause if you do then I won't think a minute before killing you.

They wanted to get rid of me so they killed my mother when I was in her womb, or at least they thought they did. But my father tried to save my mother behind their back. But unfortunately, she died while giving birth to me. So my father had to marry another woman who happens to be Mark's biological mother. Yes, Mark is my stepbrother. Mark's biological father was also killed by William family. So his mother and my father married to get their revenge. Mark is her son but she was never allowed to let the world know about his identity. Everyone thinks I am her son but it's not the real truth. It was all done for REVENGE. Now we both brothers have one goal and that is to destroy William Family.

It will be really fun to reveal the truth of the past to Blake who doesn't have the slightest memory of it. But now one step at a time. First I will destroy his plan and then he will lose Melissa. Once that's done I will take away all the rest of the things which belong to him. His mansions, his cars, his life, his girl, everything will be mine.

With the last sip of wine, I laugh hysterically as I think about tomorrow. That little gift that I will be sending to Melissa's parents will tell them about what their girl is going through.
Let's see how Blake handles them then. It's going to be a great show. Happy horrendous wedding Blake in advance. Hahahahahahaha.

A/N:
Hey guys!
I hope now you all know what and why the unknown guy is behind.
It's going to be interesting now.
She will be forced {spoiler 😉}
How confident this unknown guy is! What do you think, will he be able to execute his plan?
Will William family be destroyed?
And what about our poor Melissa, what will happen with her in the future?
Wedding? Escape? Death? Torture?
