Zeline's whole body was shaking and sweating with fear when she woke up from a nightmare in the middle of the night.She sat down and calmed herself. Gradually she remembered the events ... she was sound asleep when the door slowly opened and a man enter the room. He carefully approached the unconscious maiden and tied both hands to the bedpost and one by one clothes was removed from Zeline's body. She was awake because of the cold air touch her ***** body. She moved her hand to look for the blanket, but she felt like it was tied, Zeline's eyes immediately opened, and she was right and her whole body was filled with fear when she saw that she was not wearing anything! Terrified, she looked around, in a corner a man adjusting a small camera give her a brief glance.

“Who are you? What are you doing here?Let me go! ” Zeline asked the man one after another and force herself to free.

He looked at her again for a moment then turned his gaze back to the camera.

“It's good that you're awake, Sweetie. Do not be afraid, we will do something that we will both like. ” the man said gently as he slowly removed his own clothes and then walked closer to Zeline's bed.

In fear of the girl she forced her body to sit down.

“Please, do not come near me. Please! Stay back… ”Zeline said while sitting and trying to hide her body from the man's exploitative eyes.

“What will you do if I come? Will you shout, Sweetie? ” asked the man. She was stunned for a moment so the man quickly pulled both of her legs and quickly got on top of her body. the man violently kissed her lips and lowered her twisted tongue around Zeline's neck. The girl screamed in fear. She struggled with all her might but failed, he's too strong.

“Father help! Father, Mother !! Help! ” Zeline shouted.

The man on top of her laughed like crazy

and then brought the mouth close to Zeline's ear

“They can't hear you, Sweetheart. Do not waste your energy." the girl's eyes widened with fear and met the man's eyes

“W-What did you do to them?” her shaking voice asked the man. A meaningful smile drew its lips.

“You will know soon, when I'm done with you” And he begun to exploit her body, until it gets bored with it.

'BZZ.BZZ’ the cellphone on the side table vibrates. Zeline stood up and pulled back the lilac curtain to let the sun shine through the window.

Zeline clasped her hands tightly. Fear was replaced by an overflowing anger could be seen on the woman's beautiful face.

'I only live for one reason,that is to avenge to those who ruined my life' Zeline said to herself mentally.

Zeline walks into a beautiful park wearing a white shirt partnered geometrical designed skirt while a black blazer rests on her shoulder. An elderly man saw her coming, stood up and waved at the girl.

“Atty. Costudio, we haven't seen each other for a long time since I came back ” began Zeline as it approaches the attorney.

“Finally you have time to talk to an old man like me” Attorney joked. His face could not hide that he was glad to see Zeline. A mischievous smile drew on her lips and acted as if she was confused by what the Attorney said.

“Who is the old man you are referring to? Are you referring to this handsome man wearing a navy blue suit and red necktie? I think his look is too young to be called an old man” Zeline joked back.

The man laughed whole heartey. this woman knows He loved to praise his physical appearance. But the laughter did not last long, it was immediately replaced by silence.

“I heard you reopened the case of your mom and dad” Atty. Costudio as his chocolate-colored eyes seriously stared into the distance. He was a good friend of Zeline's parents. He was also anxious when he discover what happened to them in the hands of unidentified criminals. Unexpected event that turned everything into chaos.

“That's why I came back here” with a mix of emotions in the tone of Zeline's voice.

Atty turned to look at the girl.

'How can I help this young woman If I myself am stuck in the situation?' in Atty.'s head

Zeline’s beautiful face was full of sorrow. All he can do is to support this woman. He gently grabbed her hand and give it an assuring squeeze.

Zeline had just entered the office when her secretary greeted her, she was agitated.

“Ms.Craven, the engineer who will handle Mr. Tan's project was arrived 30 minutes ago. He's currently at the meeting room, waiting” the secretary informed Zeline as they boarded the elevator.

“Just get the things I need for the meeting. I will go straight there ”Zeline explained calmly as she walked out of the elevator.

Duke Stood and looking outside the glass wall, his hands were both in the pocket of his pants when Zeline entered the room. He turned around to see who’s approaching him.

With a polite smile the woman asked him "maybe, you're the engineer?"

Duke nodded with a bored look but the possessed beauty of the woman did not escape his sharp eyes even if it was just hearing simple office attire.

“Sorry, Im late. I’m the Company Owner, I'm Zeline.” she politely and held out her hand in front of Duke.

“I hope it won’t happen again,Ms. Zeline” Duke said wryly then added “I'm Duke”

With a disdain looked at the offered hand, Zeline thought to lower it but before that happened Duke quick reflexes grabbed her hand. Zeline's chest throbbed loudly as she looked at her hand with Duke's hand. Her eyes slowly rose until her shocked eyes met Duke’s predatory eyes. The frugal smile drew on the red and thin lips but did not reach its eyes.

“Let’s proceed" Duke said coolly and let go her hand.

She let out a breath that she didn't notice she had been holding back.‘What was that?’ She asked herself.

From time to time, Zeline caught Engineer Duke's eye scanning her body but when their eyes met he just smile and act as if nothing happened. After an hour, the discussion of the two was over.

'Finally, finished!' she said mentally and her face enlightened with relief.

“It's nice to discuss business with you, Ms.Zeline” Duke commented with a smile and held out a hand to the woman.

Zeline welcomed his hand and thank him with gratitude.

“I'm looking forward to talk to you more about something more interesting than business” Duke said meaningfully then bowed slightly to give Zeline's hand a kiss then left.

A few minutes passed but Zeline was still there, standing while her one hand was on her chest.'Weird. It feels like I’ll be in panic attack any moment’ she said mentally. She was still in that state when her secretary Venice came in holding some folders.

“Ms. Craven ”Venice called to Zeline, but she did not say a word.

“Ms. Craven? ” his second call but his employer was still silent.

Worried, she approached her boss and then waved a hand across it's face and then asked “Ms. Craven, are you okay?”

Because of what Venice did, Zeline came to her senses and smiled awkwardly and made an instant excuse to say to her worried secretary.

“I'm sorry I didn't pay attention maybe it's the effect of overworked” she said awkwardly.

‘Crap.’ She mentally said to herself.

Zeline was driving her black Mini Cooper home when she got stuck in traffic.

Bzz.Bzz.Bzz.

Her phone vibrated on the dashboard, and she give it quickly looked.

‘Techy Jerk Calling...’

Appeared on her cellphone screen.She answered the call with one swift tap and then connect it to the car speaker.

“What is it?” She asked dryly.

“Is that the proper way to greet your friend who wholeheartedly helps you?” there was annoyance in the voice of the man on the other line

Zeline automatically rolls her eyes and a giggle escape her lips. “Hello Kid! How are you doing? Have you eaten?” Zeline asked one after another then added “Satisfied?”

With a little laugh hanging on his voice. He said incredulously “I almost see your disgusted face in my head! Damn, Mate. Even your rolling eyes! Sucks!"

Laughter filled the car. They already know each other for a long time.

"By the way, where are you and what are you doing?" Kid asked from the other line.

"I'm stuck in traffic on the way home" Zeline said sparingly while driving the car slowly.

“Go home immediately and ohh buy beer huh? Your refrigerator is full of shit and buy buffalo wings and pizza too and Don't forget the hot sauce, okay? don't forget, huh? Take care love you Craven!”

Before Zeline could say a thing call was ended.

Zeline placed all her purchase on the kitchen counter and found kid coming out from the comfort room. She looked at him with annoyance.

"How do you get in?" Quick question of Zeline

Kid walk toward the kitchen with a roguish smile but when she saw Zeline's purchases it was quickly replaced by a charming one.

He took out one by one the content of the plastic and then slowly opened A plastic container and smelled it like a child.

“Good heaven! I'm even hungrier” Kid commented and placed the food in the microwave.

Zeline just watching her friend 'like a child' in her mind.

“How did you get into the house?” she asked again while leaning on the refrigerator crossing her limb in front of her.

Kid open a beer can when Zeline asks and he casually answer with "I climbed the fence then I broke the glass wall on the balcony of your room”

Zeline's eyes almost popped out."WHAT?" She quickly went to the stairs, but she heard kid's suppressed laughter from the kitchen.

“Lorenzo!” annoyed Zeline shouted from the stairs

“just kidding” kid shouted back.

He was ready to eat his meal when Zeline came back with an annoyed look and mouthed 'damn you'.

He just sheepishly smiled at her while chewing his food.

“By the way, Mate. I forgot to tell you, I already sent the picture to your email” kid said with a serious tone.

With a swift tapping on her phone Zeline saw what's he referring to.

“And I also inquired with some acquaintances about the crime and Did you know that they only said one thing” he said while looking at Zeline.

"Are you sure,Mate?" she asked Kid hesitantly.

He nodded seriously.

“Let's start with your relatives who used to visit your parents” explained the young man while playing a glass of beer in his hand.

In unexplainable cause Zeline's heart throbbed loudly. Her knuckles in hand turned white because of the tightness of it's grip on her cellphone. She's not aware that Kid was watching her state with serious and worried expression.

" There's only one relative I have here" she said.

Thinking the first time she met that relative on the funeral of her parents

"but he can't be!"
