She was sweating looking for her baby. She had lost it. She calls Edmond around the dark corridor but nothing comes up from her throat. Her throat is dry and hard like something is gripping on it so she is unable to talk. She was crying calling for Edmond but she heard nothing.

She gasped and wakes up in tears again. She was crying like the way she was in her dream. She was sweating in cold and her throat is dry. She forced herself to sit up. She kept on crying and sobbing, while she folds her knees and hugged it tight. She was alone but there's Psyche her cat rubbing against her feet. Then her big dog a Great Dane with black dots in his white fur that she found in Ireland near their house is sitting on the floor watching her. The dog jumped to the bed and licked her wet cheeks. The dog whines.

"Oh Dane..." she hugged the dog. The dog whimpers showing how sad he is.

It was three years after she had started again. But she always has the same nightmares at night. She had produced a movie and directed it which earns them billions of dollars. She had put them on her city and the half is on the Hospitals, like in Denmark and Philippines. She had a lot of news almost every day from Isabel. Telling her how Edmond was doing. He was in the King's training and she told her that he didn't remember everything in his life and what he is.

She put her leggings and shirt on. Putting braces on her ankles and knees so she won't sprain. She runs around her small city where the ¼ of the city is still under construction. She was living on the biggest building where her company is and top floor is her home. There are lots of DIA agents and on training Spies around in that early morning having trainings and exercise. They had to stop to give her a salute. She simply nods at them. Dane, her dog is running with her.

There are lots of on training agents that are going to take her command and she had lots of appointments to attend. There are lots of families who don't have a home and kids who don't have parents and are living on the streets that she had adopted and welcome them on her City Island. They have their own jobs to keep the city a city. They are also the leading actresses for the cases that she's going to do. She give orders which is she directs for every certain cases to be put on for the Trainers to do it. The teenagers who are cleaning their yard, waves at her. She waves back at them.

Her weightless phone which is on her wrist like a wrist watch, rung. She clicks her wireless earphone on her right ear.

"Vitoria."

"Good morning!" it was Isabel. She was cheerful as ever.

"Oh hey, good evening to you Princess. How you doing?" she asked a bit breathless.

"Well, my father's birthday is near and I wanted you to be here."

"Okay, I'll try about it. How's Edmond?"

"Oh! He was fine. I keep on pulling him away from Elaine. The Lords are pushing him to marry a royal blood. I feel so disgusted because of it."


Gia stopped from running. "What about Eros?"

"He's fine and I think he misses Psyche. When you came back here please bring Psyche and Dane... I miss them."

"Okay, sure. So how was school?"

"It was okay, but I love the music more. Edmond told me that I have a wonderful voice. Do you think I have?" she asked. Gia smiles.

"Of course you have. I wanted to listen to you singing when I get there."

"Oh yes! Hey, I have been updating to your albums. I love the songs it was sad romantic."

"Thank you. I started recording again so that I have money to give in Africa. Caroline will have a health mission there to help those people."

"That was great, I wanted to help to but I have lots of classes to attend."

"You better study well, so you are able to help other people."

"I am. I wanted to have little gig to put the money on the orphanage here in Copenhagen."

"That was kind of you."

Isabel, why are you still awake? It was Edmond's voice. Her heart skips a beat and she wanted to hear him more. Sleep now, Princess. We have a mass to attend.

I was just talking to a friend, Eddie. Give me a minute.

A friend? Is it a boy? Are you having a boyfriend? Edmond teased, she smiles about it.

Of course not! I am speaking with my number one idol. She is going to release another album and I am the first one to have her album.

Okay, Princess, you need to sleep now. You can talk to her in the morning.

It is night to them in the morning. You wanted to talk to her? I bet she miss you too. Edmond just giggles.

No sweetie, you have to sleep now.

Gia hangs up and she continue running with her dog. She runs back to her building. When she gets there she prepares her breakfast. She had learned to cook from Reina. Reina is already married and had with a hybrid child. A half werewolf and half human. Lester is a very caring father and might be the best one. She wiped her sweat while the maid robot is cleaning the whole house. She had given Dane and Psyche's breakfast. They are buddies together playing each other.

She had flipped the pancake on the weightless pan. She makes three and started plating it. She chopped a few strawberries and put it around the pancake. She sprinkles some chocolate crush and pours some chocolate syrup. After her pets done from eating they are playing cups with a small ball inside. The robot will shuffle the cups and they will point where the ball is. She is the one who taught them playing it. She even taught them on how to play chess.

She makes a chocolate fruit shake with milk on the blender and she started eating while watching the daily news. Then she swipe the glass table putting her password like it was a screen. She had updated the constructions that are extending to the water. Then she got a call. She answered it and the hologram of her father is there sitting on the swivel chair.

"Good morning sweetheart." Her father greets. She nods lifting her food to him. "I am glad that you are able to cook for yourself. Hey, do you mind coming here in Batangas? We missed you and your nephew wanted to see you."

He is talking about the two year old son of her brother. She was very close to the boy. She always think what might her child be or like. The boy had aqua blue eyes, sometimes like green like his mother's eyes and sometimes like his father's eyes.

"I am quite busy these weeks. I have lots of appointments and I have to record a new album. Ryle will be here to record a song with me also Ken." She drinks on her chocolate fruit shake.

"We barely see you personally, honey. We wanted you here. You don't have to focus yourself on that city and businesses of yours." He told. She sliced another piece of pancake and brings it to her mouth.

"I still can't forget my unborn child, Dad. It always came into my dream." She told looking down on what she is eating. "Have you known who did it? It hunted me because it attacks the back seat where I was."

"Not yet sweetie. We are still investigating about it. We are investigating the Ministers, the Lords, including the Dukes in the Palace. The King is cooperating on investigating." The trap was so careful and until now they still couldn't find the real culprit. They had planned it carefully to kill her and her child.

"I will just be here and do what I have to do." She said making her final decision.

"What about Edmond? You didn't break your engagement with him right?"

"No, I didn't. I promise him that, besides we are married in Ireland, you know that."

"So it is real? You married him in the Priest?"

"Yes, Lester told you about that."

"Okay, I got it. I will just visit you there later. I have to check on the agents."

"Okay." She nods.

"I love you."

"I love you too." He had gone from the hologram.

She had taken her time on the cold shower remembering Edmond and their first honeymoon in the Ireland. He was very funny while he is washing her. She wanted his touch and longing for it. Mr. Nielsen is checking her daily. Though she is far away from Denmark he is doing his job on keeping her safe. That's what Edmond told him.

After the incident that she almost die but had saved by the machine that her brother invented, Mr. Nielsen had survived too. He even did his job on keeping her alive. She walks out the shower wrapping the towel around her. Then she gets another one to wipe her hair. She walks into her walk in closet looking for her outfit today. She chooses the leather black suit with DIA patch. Yes, she finally had DIA Patch herself. Then she dries herself with the towel and fan.

After she blow dry her hair and put some cream on her face and red lipstick on her lips, she put her suit on and her black leather shoes. She is dress to kill with those perfect curves she has. The Nanny of her pets had arrived and giving Dane a bath.

"Margaret, I am going back to work." She told as she enters her private elevator. When she was outside the man who is holding all her vehicles had already parked her sports car outside. "Thank you Hans," she told without any smiles. The young man bows at her as she enters her car.

She went to the Congress building and there's lots of Spies on training around. The boys had to stopped and check on her. She enters the elevator where there are young men at the age of twenties chatting. They stopped and check her from head to toe. She didn't even try to check on them. She turns back from them facing the closing door. They are all new so they didn't recognize her as the owner of the city.

The young man in DIA army outfit stepped at her side giving her a lopsided sexy smile. She glanced at him without any emotions.

"Hi, I'm Jacob." He said. She ignored him checking her manicured nails and blows imaginary dirt showing him that she's not interested. His friends cover their mouth and laughs at him. He grimaced giving them a look like-I-got-this-man. "So, are you an agent here?" he asked leaning on the door still looking at her. She looked at him in sharp way.

"Hmmm..." she just said looking in her front. The agent just smirked checking her dress to kill outfit. He tilts his head sideways to check on her butt. He pulls his calling card before the elevators opens.

"Here, call me." He gave her the card. She took it lazily and stepped out the elevator with sigh and faced them.

"You need a discipline lecture on not staring at ladies ass." She speaks and she throws the card with her two fingers in the agent's chest. They all gape at her.

When she had reach the room where all the new agents are gathered. The captain with Gia walks in front of the agents. They all gape when Gia show up. They are in the army position where their chests are out and stomach are in, chin ups and salutes at her.

"At ease." Gia told and they all relaxed. She looks around the new agents. Half are male and half are females. "I am Gia Vitoria James, the President of this city." She said walking in front of them checking the males. "There are rules in my city and that includes discipline." She said stopping in front of the agent in black hair that she met earlier in the elevator. "Step forward." She commands. The agent step forward as what she had said. "Attack me." She demands.

"Pardon me?" he asked.

"Are you deaf? I said attack me, use your martial arts skills." She told looking straight into his eyes.

He gulped and he attacks in an easy way. Gia had grabbed his wrist twisting it and she kick the back of his legs that makes him flip on the air, fall on the marble fall facing it. He grunted where they are all amused on what happened.

"You are easily distracted by a sexy beautiful lady in front of you." She told standing straight. "That's the first thing you should learn. You have to control yourself on hooking up on females unless you need it on your mission." She told telling all the males. "Am I right, Captain?" Gia asked to the 28 year old agent male with her.

"Certainly, President." The Captain nods. Gia faced the males.

"Second thing, don't be such a pervert staring at the lady with a sexy ass. Are we clear?"

"Yes, Ma'am!" the males chorus.

"You need to study and read carefully all the rules in this city. Then Captain Reyes will give you tests." She walks towards where the females are. "Ladies," she said. They nod at her. "First thing for you is to focus. Though females are easily to fall in love you have to be practical every time you are in mission. Males can be gentlemen, but you have to know that they can betray you." she told and walk away from them a little so that they can all see her. "The same with males. Women are very dangerous as well."

"I don't want Trainees that are pregnant. So if you are going to fool around you need to use protection or else you will be detained from my city. I don't tolerate illegal drugs, whether it is ingestion, inhalation, or injection. Maybe others can use it but not agents and Trainees, or else you will be detained. Are we clear?"

"Yes, Ma'am." They all chorus.

"Good, adjourn." She said.

They all marched out the hall. She uses the private elevator and went back to her building to her office. When she get there her cousins are already there waiting for her. Ryle is being a rock star while Ken is a bit classy than him. They all went closer to her giving her a warm hug and kisses.

"Hey, we are going to clubbing later. Then to the other night and then other and so on and so forth." Ryle told her.

"Sure, I am suck drinking alone." She told.

"But first things first, we need to check on my compositions. Then we can plan for the music video after recording it." Ken told.

"Sure, let's get started." Gia clapped her hand.

They went to her recording studio which is just inside her big office. Her office occupies half of the story of the building. She got her own recording studio, conference room and an office for her secretary.

Inside her office she got a glass grand piano in the middle big glass desk. Then another computer desks near the glass full length window showing the whole view of her city. The secretary knocks on the door and it opens. They all looked at her secretary wearing a white polo shirt that is tucked inside her pencil cut shirt. She had a bouquet of flowers on her hand.

"Another flower for today, Miss." The secretary told walking towards her giving her the flowers.

"No identity of the sender?" she asked.

"Nothing, just the delivery guy." Gia pick the card and read it. Another creepy letter from her suitor.

I don't care if you don't love me but soon you'll be mine.

"That is like a threat." Ken said.

"Why didn't you tell us that you got a creepy suitor?" Ryle questioned her. "We need to know this guy." He alluded.

"What if he's Edmond?" Ken asked.

"Thank you Mara." She said giving back the flowers to her. Mara nods as she gets what she wanted on the flowers. She put it outside to put it on the vase on the living room for the clients and check if there's secret device. "I know Edmond, he will not going to send me flowers like that. Besides, he doesn't give me creepy letters. It was all poetic and had his initials. Plus," she pauses. "He doesn't remember me. If he did, he will come to me."

"You are right." Ryle said. They all went to the recording studio. It was all glass and can see through the musical instruments and other appliances that are using to record. "Reina told me that someone is stalking you last four years. She can smell the guy. Hey, don't you remember your suitors from high school that giving you flowers. Someone from them might be obsessed on you, don't you think?"

"I think so." She said ignoring it. "We need to record now and earn lots of money for the people of Africa." Ken and Ryle just sighed.

"Okay, I write songs and I record it. Just check it out, you might like it. Then you can revise it or whatsoever you need." Ken told.

He will record and make some adjustments while they are singing. Gia and Ryle enter the auditorium while Ken is watching them from the glass. Ryle plays the acoustic guitar while Gia is on the electronic piano. Gia read the notes and plays it on the keyboard while Ryle is strumming the guitar reading the soft copy in front of him.

"Hey, I had a suggestion. Let's put some covered songs, some old songs like Mariah Carey or Mandy Moore... what do you think?" he asked Gia who is concentrating on the piece.

"Yeah, I would like that. Let's put Meghan Trainor and Lady Antebellum with your favorite old rock band We the Kings..." she said stopping from what she is doing. Kyle pushes the button and moves his mouth on the mic.

"Let's put a little Demi Lovato with mash ups." Kyle alluded.

"Sure."

"Hey, I want to sing Thinking out Loud of Ed Sheeran then we can put a lyrical dancing on the music video like he did on his music video." Kyle suggested again. "We are going to be famous as a band." He said excitedly. "Let's called our band GKR."

"Not bad." The two chorused. Kyle grins and rubbed his palms.

"But you two are going to dance. Got it?"

"Yeah." They agreed. Gia started playing the piano and hums the notes.
