Niiya woke up when his mother said that his friend came for a visit. He was pretty annoyed from the previous night ever since Adrianna had once again chosen someone else over him. He wore his night robe begrudgingly and went to see who was at the door and was shocked when he saw Keisha.

He narrowed his eyes and asked, "Why are you here? Who gave you permission to enter my house?!" he got furious and stepped in front of her to yanked her hand and dragged her out of the house. He hated her for being mean to Adrianna during the college days.

​​

"Please Niiya, listen to me first!" Keisha said as she jerked her hand off Niiya's. "I know you don't like me, but I thought you should know this information before they kill me!"

Niiya looked at her with anger and replied, "I don't want to listen to a person like you! Get out!" Once again, he took her hand forcefully and continued to pull her to the exit.

"It was Dmitri who had kidnapped you!" she shouted loud enough to gain his attention.

Niiya stopped in his tracks. His grip on her loosened as he stared at her with shock. His eyes went wide in bewilderment.

Keisha took advantage of the opportunity. She repeated, "It was Dmitri who had kidnapped you, because he wanted to marry Adrianna. Adrianna wasn't ready to marry him, but she was forced into marrying him because he kidnapped you and had threatened her with dire consequences. He said that if she didn't marry him, he would kill you, so she was forced to marry him only to save you."

Niiya's legs became limp when the information entered his ears. He was so shocked that he didn't know what to do at that point of time. He walked around, then sat on the nearest sofa with his head between his hands.

Keisha slowly moved next to him and sat. "I am sorry, but this is the truth."

Niiya felt utterly helpless at that time. Adrianna married the guy she hated only to save him, all the while he kept blaming her about how she rejected him. He felt his heart palpitated as if on the verge of coming out of his mouth. The truth was hurting him. His brain refused to believe it or was overreacting, either way, he rushed to the bathroom and vomited. He looked at himself in the mirror and noticed that his eyes were red with tears flowing out of them. He had lost his love forever, but the way he lost it was even more terrible.

He wanted to kill Dmitri then and there!

He took a deep breath to calm his mind for a bit, once he did, he washed his face and came out.

He saw that Keisha was waiting for him outside. "I am sorry Niiya, but I had to tell you this."

Niiya went to sit in front of her. He had to know what was going on. He collected his thoughts and asked, "Why are you telling this to me now? Why didn't you tell me this when I was about to get abducted? Do you realize how many lives could have been saved from disaster?"

Keisha was sneering inside, but outside, she sighed and acted tactful. "At that point of time I was with Dmitri and was hoping that he doesn't make that mistake. I had told him in various ways to not go after Adrianna, but he didn't listen. All he wanted was to acquire something you liked. He was in competition with you and Adrianna was his trophy of victory."

"Do you mean to say that he doesn't love Adrianna?" asked Niiya, getting agitated. His heart went all out for Adrianna as if his flame was rekindled and he wanted to kill Dmitri.

"Of course…" Keisha lowered her head then said, "No. Dmitri only loves himself andAdrianna is just a toy for him to play with. Look, he even spent two nights with me, even if I don't want it!"

Niiya clenched his fist so tightly that his knuckles turned white. "Then why didn't you stop him?"

"I wanted to stop him but he forced himself on me!" said Keisha as her eyes began to tear. "I told him that he belonged to Adrianna and that he shouldn't do anything with me, but he insisted that he wanted me now. That is why we came to Nate's party together."

Niiya felt all the more disgusted. Yesterday, during the engagement, Adrianna was drinking because she was hurt seeing him with Keisha. This was so messed up. He wanted to do his best for her, but then again, Dmitri must have seen it as a competition. He couldn't bear his trophy being snatched, so he took Adrianna away from him. He also remembered how Keisha went after them desperately.

Keisha continued, "When he saw you dance with Adrianna, once again he wanted to put you down by taking Adrianna out in a way that you would feel jealous and rejected."

Niiya scoffed, "So I am right, after all! Dmitri is a bastard who can't face the fact that Adrianna loves me and hates him. He just wants to force himself on her!"

He gritted his teeth and swore that he would teach the scum a lesson.
