"Aisha!!!!!" she heard a man screaming mournfully but the face was a blur. She can't recognize him at all.

Then she saw someone fell off the cliff. The woman fell in the ocean and she was sinking deep. She grasped her mouth in dread and the wanting to rescue the woman surged within her. she wanted to jump off the sea but her feet couldn't move. Why?

She wanted to save the woman from drowning but she couldn't even feel her body. Her knees where trembling as well. ah! How she hated it! how she despised herself for fearing the water. But the next thing she saw made her fall back.

It was her! when the body float on the surface, she was so surprised to see her body gliding with the waves. No! is she dead?

Then instantly, she woke up from her dream.

Alex was soaking in sweat when she rose up from her bed. What a nightmare! It feels so real that she was thinking if it did happen in the past or not. She's not sure. seems like she can't tell what's real from what is not anymore.

She decided to stand up and head to the kitchen to guzzled a cup of water. She needs to cool down first. It's still dark outside so she checked her time, it's 1:20am. Ah, she wanted to sleep peacefully for now since a lot of things happened to her today and all she wanted to do is sleep it off. she scoffed within.

But before she went back to her room, she made sure to check her daughter first. Good for her, she's sleeping soundly right now. however, she felt guilty when she remembered that Miracle fell as sleep at the landlady's house while waiting for her arrival. Too bad, they came back at around 8pm from the valley of dreams.

That Clement, if he did not attack Ethan in the first place then they must have gone home early. Yes, Clement saw Ethan and Alex at the Valley of dreams together.

Flashback:

Earlier, Ethan had finished discussing things with Mr. Darius and as for Alex and Ms. Darlene, they also had fun watching the view from the hotel's top veranda. they've been exchanging some thoughts and after a few conversations, Darlene spoked about Ethan.

"He's been living in the shadows of the past since his fiancée died 3 years ago. And I have never seen him smiled nor look at any other women the way he stares at you. I could say he sincerely loves you. So please, make him happy at least for today. he needs to have a break from his bitter past and I think you can only help him." the old woman touched her hands after.

She couldn't say anything but smile.

Then after some more minutes, Ethan and Darius came to get them so they could explore the whole place. However, the couples made a pass and went back to their hotel room leaving Ethan and Alex alone. Unknown to Ethan, Alex had decided to do anything just to help the man got out from his painful past. Though she doesn't know how but come what may, she resolved.

That day, they had agreed to visit every part of the valley without any reservations. They were actually enjoying each other's company and unknown to them, everyone who sees them thought they were real couples. Therefore, one of the photographer asked them if they could be their model for their photoshoot. The group was actually trying to advertise the place through their magazine as well as the social media. so when they saw the two, the photographer seems to have an idea.


They wanted to take some photos but they're needing a model. The model that they hired unexpectedly didn't show up. but hopes rise from their hearts when they saw two perfect couples for their captions.

At first, Alex was a bit hesitant. Of course she was thinking about their CEO but to her surprise, Ethan agreed! Whoa!

They did some romantic poses as the camera man directs them. the organizer was able to see the two's compatibility and had complimented them both, thinking they were some sort of married couples who's having their honeymoon.

Ah, perfect! And their actions were very natural. They might have known it but the chemistry between them was very visible.

"Uhm… have you ever done photoshoots before?" the photographer suddenly asked after their shoots.

Alex nodded. "Never." She humbly replied. Her answer gave spark to the man who was actually thinking to hire the two as their models.

"Perfect then!" he was smiling wide. "Do you perhaps want to try entering the entertainment industry? If you want, I can help you shine. You two will surely rise to the top!" he offered.

Alex jerked at the man's offer then she looked at Ethan who just emptied a water bottle and was amused as he flips through their photos.

"I'm sorry sir, but modelling is not my thing. And that man, I don't think he needs to be at the top since he was already there." She replied. The man gawked at her answer. the man was already at the top? He was so curious that his eyes meticulously stared at the man. then after a few minutes, he jolted in shocked.

That man! his features resembles the most powerful and the famous cold-hearted young CEO of the Saphiro Ghentz Empire! Then he tried to look closer. Suddenly, he felt a chill that overshadowed his body. No! he's not a copy-cat. It is definitely him! now his doomed.

"Lady… please tell me that the man isn't the famous young CEO Ethan Saphiro Williams!" he crossed his fingers. But when he heard the woman chuckled, he already knew the answer.

"Unfortunately, he is."

"What?! oh no! am I doomed now?" he looks devastated. But after getting an encouragement from the woman, he slowly approached the man with trembling knees.

"Mr. Williams, I'm sorry, I didn't recognize you earlier. I'm sorry for asking you to do such a thing as this…"

"I love these photos. You did pretty well. Please do send a copy on my email." He interrupted the man. of course the photographer was shocked at his sudden response. He had never expected a compliment from this man. but somehow, he was happy to know that he pleased the famous ceo.

"Yes, of course, I will!" the man instantly replied and took a paper to write the ceo's email address. Guess he was not that bad as the rumors say he was.

After a few more conversation, Ethan and Alex left the area and moved to their next destination. however, seems like the only spot they haven't visited was the shore. it would be best and romantic to watch the sunset at the seashore.

"Want to catch the sunset at the beachside?" Ethan proposed.

"I love to… but then…"

"Trust me." Ethan interjected. "I know you're afraid, but I am here. I promise not to leave your side." Then he took her hand. "And I promise not to let go off this hand as well." he smiled sincerely.

Alex couldn't say a thing. She was dumbfounded at Ethan's actions. She wanted to protest whenever Ethan holds her hand but her tongue seemed tied down whenever she wanted to utter something. but then the comfort she was feeling whenever the man was around, it was so real; there is a peace like a child sleeping within her.

The man took her hand as they walked towards the seashore hand in hand. Although there was silence between them but not as awkward as the woman thought it will be. The joy, the peace and the --- love? no! maybe it was just the respect. Yeah, it's just a close friendship being built up between them.

They were walking along the shore, then after a few minutes, they decided to sit on the sand to watch the sunset. It was so beautiful that no words could even describe it. if only they were real couples then this moment will surely be a very romantic and memorable one for them. kissing the man you love will definitely be a… dang! Alex shrug her thoughts away. What is she even thinking? ah, pervert thought!

The man sensed her uneasiness therefore he looked at her in the eyes.

"Are you okay?" he asked.

"Ehm." She nodded.

"Just tell me if you're feeling uncomfortable, especially when your phobia is disturbing you so we can go back to the hotel now."

That moment, Alex suddenly thought about the waters. Yeah, isn't she feeling dizzy whenever she looks at the ocean? But why is she feeling relaxed right now? is it the feeling of security beside this man? she thought.

"No, I'm okay." she smiled. "The sunset is so beautiful and I don't want to waste this opportunity." She was looking at the horizon with sparkling eyes.

"Me too." The man softly replied while staring at the woman beside him. "It is indeed very beautiful and captivating…" his tone was seducing enough that the woman couldn't help but glanced at him. they were both looking at each other's eyes, face so close and lips almost touching.

She can feel the man's cold breath. his scent… ah, something is being stirred within her once again. His eyes, they're communicating love and desire… oh, she is being magnetized. Maybe it was just the atmosphere; the cold breeze, the sunset and the…Ah, whatever reason there is. Then her eyes landed on the man's rosy lips. Fudge! She wanted it. no explanation needed, it's just that, her heart is pounding fast right now and the desire to smooch the man was so great that she couldn't control herself anymore.

Why is this man not kissing her yet? she was so upset. Seems like the man is enjoying taunting her. she then gulped when the man's lip twitched a little. Dang! she wanted him! however, the man suddenly averted his gaze on the horizon.

"Isn't it beautiful?" he uttered while he smirks.

Is he really doing this on purpose? Leaving her hanging? Seducing her then leave her astounded? The woman was so annoyed that she wanted to burst in anger. The man seems to have felt the eerie atmosphere so he glanced at the woman whose head was hanging low.

"Alex… A-are you okay?" his tone was filled with care. But the next thing that happened rendered him speechless.

She kissed him! and is kissing him! her tongue, she's taunting the man to open his mouth. of course, he couldn't say no so he responded by kissing her back. they were obviously craving for each other's lips that they didn't notice a man looking at them from a far.

After a few minutes, they broke away trying to get some air. That sense of fulfillment is very visible in their eyes. however, a silhouette of a man caught the woman's attention therefore she glanced to were the shadow was. but her sudden distressed appearance disturbed Ethan so he slowly stared at her eyes' direction.

Clement! The woman yapped.

But the next thing she saw alarmed her. Ethan's lips were bleeding from Clément's blow!

Ethan! She yelped.
