BLAKE's POV


"I'm warning you Blake. Go home right now or I will go there and drag you home myself" He threatened which made me want to yell at him. If I was alone, I would've have screamed at him because of anger. I huffed, trying to control the urge to retaliate to him. Kelly and Jake were already staring at me curiously.

"You are not my freaking father to dictate me what to do" I said whispering with annoyance. I heard him cursed expletives.

"Stay where you are and I am coming to get you. Leave and you will not like the consequences" He warned which made my throat dry and my heart beat erratically. I don't know if I am nervous or what. I ended the call without saying goodbye to him.

"Who was that?" Kelly's voice was full of interest. They even stopped eating while staring at me curiously.

"No one. Just continue eating and then let's get out of here" I said feigning nonchalance. I wanted to eat quickly and get out of here but then I realized that I didn't tell Enrique where I am and that made me felt relieved. Kelly just shrugged her shoulders and then we continued eating. Jake was telling us some jokes which made us laughed and I almost forgot about Enrique and his threats. After eating, we stayed at the nearby park and continued talking happily, enjoying each other's company.

"Excuse me girls, I need to get something" Jake suddenly said and went somewhere.

"Don't you feel anything for Jake? I mean, look at him, he really likes you. I can see it in his eyes" Kelly said when we were alone. There were still people at the park, mostly lovers. I took a deep breath and stared at the gigantic red and white Christmas tree at the center of the park. Now that I realized it, it's 15 days before Christmas.

"I'm sorry Kelly. I like him but as a friend" I said honestly which made her smile withered.

"It's okay Blake. It's not like you can force your heart to like someone" She said seriously. After a couple of minutes, Jake came back and to our surprise, he was carrying a bouquet of flowers.

"This is for you Blake" He said and handed it to me.

"Thanks Jake. What's this for?" He scratched the back of his neck, like he was being shy or something.

"Nothing. I just want to give it to you. I just hope that you will consider giving me a chance to prove to you how much I love you" My mouth parted, unable to say something to him. He was staring at me expectantly and I could see that he really liked me but for some reason, I couldn't feel anything. Unlike when Enrique stares at me, he is very arrogant and irritating but he makes my senses go wild. Why am I keeping on thinking about that jerk anyway?! Arrgh!!

"Not a chance" The three of us looked at the person behind Jake. From the way he looked right now, he was ragingly mad. I swallowed hard nervously.

"Excuse me? Do you need anything?" Jake asked him, unaware who Enrique was. Sh*t! I think I'm about to be dead! How the hell did he find me anyway?!

"Let's go Blake" He said with an emotionless face with his jaw flexed while ignoring Jake's question. I could tell that he really was pissed. When I didn't move from my spot, he stepped towards me with long strides and grabbed the bouquet of flowers from my grasp and threw it on the ground. Kelly was standing with eyes wide as saucers while Jake suddenly looked murderous, matching Enrique's rage.

"What are you doing here Enrique? I didn't tell you where I am!" I said exasperatedly. All the people nearby were curiously glancing in our direction.

"Let's talk about it at home" Kelly gasped and looked at me with questioning eyes. I groaned inwardly and tried to get out of Enrique's grip.

"Go ahead of me Enrique. I want to hang out with my friends more" I reasoned out and was about to get back to my original position when I heard him cussed.

"You heard the lady, just go away" I cursed out when I heard Jake's voice. I looked into Enrique's eyes and he was angrier than ever. Oh my God! I need to get him out of here!

"Listen here you pr*ck, Blake is MINE and don't ever think of approaching her again, you hear me?" He warned arrogantly, emphasizing his claim. His eyes were throwing daggers at Jake before circling his arm around my waist and pulled me to the direction of his car. I looked back at Jake and he looked like somebody just punched him in the gut because of what he heard from Enrique.

"Hey mister, where do you think you're taking my best friend? Who are you anyway?" Kelly asked and quickly blocked our way. She was staring at Enrique angrily and then looked at me quizzically.

"Kelly, I will explain to you some other time. Not now" Enrique answered which made me and Kelly surprised. How did he know Kelly's name? I never introduced her to him, haven't I?

"Excuse me? Do I know you? How did you know my name?" Kelly asked with her other eyebrow cocked up. I felt Enrique's body tensed up for a second. His face was unreadable and he seemed brooding.

"Hrmm. I just tend to know all the people around my girlfriend, that's all" Enrique's face softened and looked at Kelly with amusement? I don't know if I was imagining things or what.

"Is that true Blake? How come you never mentioned about him to me?" Kelly asked with a sullen face. I felt guilty all of a sudden. I never kept anything from her and this was the first time I kept a secret.

"I will explain it to you some other time" I said apologetically before I got in the car. While the car was getting away, I could see Kelly and Jake standing there astounded. I heaved a frustrated sigh and glared at Enrique who was quietly driving.

"What was that about?! How come you knew where I was?!" I asked him, almost yelling. He just threw a glance at me and then concentrated on driving again.

"I just happen to guess it" I rolled my eyes of his lame answer. Then realized, something obvious.

"Oh my God! You sent someone to spy on me, did you?!" I freaked out and when he didn't respond, that confirmed my suspicion.

"How dare you do that?! We never agreed to such extent! You're crossing the line!" I said furiously. I suddenly felt the urge to punch his face.

"I don't care. I just want to protect my investment" his words were like arrow that pierced my heart directly. I felt hurt that he was just considering me as one of his investments. Even though I knew from the beginning that he was an insufferable jerk and I didn't even know why I was feeling this way, dejected and hurt. I fought my tears back and tried my best to look unaffected. I was surprised too of the pain I felt. I took a deep breath to calm myself down.

"Don't worry mister Dixon, I will not do anything stupid. Rest assured that I won't sleep with someone else so that we will be sure that it's yours" I said bitterly while trying to look tough and strong. His head snapped to my direction as he stopped the car in front of the red light.

"Where the hell did you get that idea?" I could sense the displeasure in his voice but I couldn't care less. He was being a jerk and if he liked playing like this, I will give it to him.

"Why? Isn't that's what you want to insinuate? I know I am just one of your investment. Don't worry, I will do my part with sincerity. Even though I love someone else, I won't go to him while we're together in this arrangement" I said with a hint of sarcasm. His fist were white because of the way he clenched it. His face turned murderous as he clenched his jaw. He hit the steering wheel with his clenched fist which made me taken aback. Our attention was caught by the horn of the car behind us. It was already green light.

ENRIQUE's POV

I was so furious. NO, furious is an understatement. From the moment Kent reported me that Blake went to her apartment and had a guy visitor, I became restless and anxious. I hated the idea that she was with another man. Well, Kelly was with them but I just couldn't shake the uneasy feeling that she would be taken away from me by another guy. I couldn't understand myself anymore. I hated her for the past 5 years but then I couldn't deny the fact that I still loved her.

I planned on taking revenge and let her feel the pain I experienced when she left me hanging but the overwhelming feeling of taking her back into my life was stronger I thought I was going insane.

I was busy in the office with a lot of work but I couldn't concentrate thinking that she was with another guy. When Kent told me that they went to the mall, watched a movie and eat at the restaurant, I couldn't take it anymore. I reached for my phone and called her.

"Where are you right now?" I asked her, trying to hide my anger.

"I'm with my friends" She stuttered which made me more pissed off. It was so obvious that she was hiding something.

"Go home" I told her with a commanding voice. I know I am being unfair and jerk but I can't help it. After all the things I've done to have her with me again, I won't ever let anyone ruin it.

"I'm already a grown up and I can go home whenever I want" She retaliated with irritation in her voice. I could tell that she was beginning to get vexed. I took a deep breath, trying not to let my temper get the best of me.

"I'm warning you Blake. Go home right now or I will go there and drag you home myself" I said with a dangerously calm voice. She was being stubborn and I knew that she would not concede and follow me just like that.

"You are not my freaking father to dictate me what to do" I could tell that she was trying not to shout at me. I could tell how mad she was and that just added my anger.

"Stay where you are and I am coming to get you. Leave and you will not like the consequences" I warned and I cursed loudly when she just cut off the call. I dialed Kent again.

"Where is she now Kent?" I asked thunderously.

"She is still in Royce's Restaurant with her friends......I think they're going out now" He answered.

"Follow them and text me where are they going. I'm on my way there" I said and stood up from my swivel chair. When I went out of my office, my secretary was following me while telling me about my next meeting but I just told her to reschedule it.

I was almost at the restaurant when Kent texted me that they were in the nearby park. The moment I arrived there, I wanted to kill the bastard who was just confessing his feelings to Blake. I was so furious and I thought I was going mad that I even accidentally called Kelly by her name and even called her one of my investment. I wanted to say sorry but my ego was preventing me from doing so. But I didn't expect her revelation.
