My heartless angle

"Wake up Lia please wake up my child" my mother shook me out of my peaceful sleep with a trembling voice.i had never seen her this worried, scared and uneasy before. "what's wrong mother why are you sweating so much?" I got up and held her by the shoulders trying to calm her down.i couldn't stop myself from feeling nervous by her reaction. "we don't have time.they are coming. we need to go. now" she passed by me and started parking a few clothes that I heard in a racksuck just next to my bed. "but mom what are you talking about. who is coming? " I looked through the window and saw nothing outside it was very quiet as usual. She grabbed my hand and dragged me out of my room without a warning. my mind was in a daze I tried to let everything sink in but I still couldn't understand what was going on. "I will tell you on the way. but we need to go out of here first." she looked at me with tears in her eyes. it broke my heart. I never ever thought I would ever see my strong and courageous mother in this kind of situation. I just nodded and followed her out of the house just to make it easier for her. I didn't want to ask her alot at the moment but where were we going to go. this had always been our only home. we didn't have anyone else to turn too. I just hoped that she had a plan. Ethan's POV "Sir the goods are arriving first thing tomorrow morning." " Don't offload the ship before I come tommorow" Ethan hung up the phone and took a sip of wine from his glass as he looked at the beautiful city view from his bedroom bulcony. Ethan was one of the most successful eligible bachelors in country z. he had beautiful brown eyes with cute long eye lashes that went well with his perfectly shaped jaw line. He was tall with a broad chest that made almost every woman who crossed the same path with him strip on there shoes. one would mistaken him to be a god. Ethan was a very handsome man. a man that any woman would dream to be with but a few people who new his bad side wouldn'tever dare to cross the same path with him again. he was a heartless beast who cared for no one else but himself and once he decidedon geting something, he wouldn't rest till he made it his Lia's POV "Run Faster Lia." my mom held my hand but what I saw ahead almost made me faint. Five huge men were standing in our path from a distance holding pangas and knives. I held my mother's hand tightly and swallowed a mouth full of saliva that had accumulated in my mouth at the moment. "are they the ones we are running from mother?" I asked her but didn't dare look away from those men's direction. "yes" was all my mother said before she dropped our bags and told me to run. turning around swiftly, we ran back where we were coming from but the men didn't seem to give up just like that. we ran as fast as our legs to could carry us but within a short time my mother started getting tired. "come on mother let's go .they are coming closer" I panicked. "you should go. you need to go or else they will catch us both Lia. gooo" she pushed me from her. "what makes you think I can live you alone here mother. I would rather die with you." I started crying. it was too much for me. there was no one to help us since our home was kinda deserted at it was already late night. I felt so helpless." " please Lia do this for me. I will be okay I will hide they won't see me I promise." I refused to live her alone. "For heaven's sake listen to me for once in your life child. I said get out of here Lia or I will never forgive myself incase anything happens to you. these people need you not me. they won't kill me. but if they get to you then I will kill myself Please listen." tears rolled down her face. but my mind was running wild at the moment. what was she talking about. "go to the lake and board a ship by any means possible. don't worry I will meet you there." she hugged me and gave me a kiss before I ran off like a mad woman. every single step I made deeper into the bushes running like a stray cat felt like hell. my heart became heavy I couldn't breathe well I couldn't see well. I wasn't thinking straight but I still had to escape. I just hoped that my mother would be okay "where is she" the black one of them all asked my mother. they had found her before she could escape. "you will never find her. never." she cursed. "hmm you are still hard headed as ever." he got closer to her and squeezed her jawline so hard that she started screaming in pain. "are you ready to tell us now." "never" she managed to get the words out of her mouth. the dark man smiled and got up from where she was sitting on the ground. "I guess you won't be of any use anymore." were the words he said before a bullet was heard. I had not gone too far away so I was able to hear it. I fell to the ground out of shock and held my hand to my mouth. I didn't want to believe what was going on in my mind. I cried my eyes out because I knew that now I was on my own though I didn't want to accept it. after what seemed like hours of running and falling. I arrived at the place where mom had told me to go. there were a few men loading the ship with heavy cago. i hid behind some cago and waited for them to first get destructed. I needed to get into that ship no matter the cost. I was still thinking of what to do when I saw an open container at a distance. I needed to get into it if I were to go in but to my disappointment another man started loading it cago as well. tears started weiling up in my eyes I felt so helpless. how had my life turned to that.i was still having my moment when I felt someone's hand on my shoulder. I turned around swiftly and stood up trying to compose myself. "who are you and what are you doing here?" he asked me sounding a little worried about me which actually surprised me. "well am am I" I tried to make a lie but it just didn't cone out right. "tell me. are you okay?" he came closer to me trying to touch my shoulder but I moved back. "I need to get on that ship" I decided to tell him the truth since he seemed like a kind person. "this ship? but why?" he looked confused. "I am escaping from some people they want to kill me please I need your help" tears started rolling down my face. "hey stop crying. you already look pale .I will try to help you but you have to do what I say." I looked at him in outer surprise I didn't really think he would offer to help me just like that but I was very grateful. I nodded my head to show him that I would complay to what he says. I thought it would be hard but within a few minutes he secured me a place in the ship without anyone's notice. I sat in between cago. it was dark i could barely breath. I felt so alone and scared. memories of my mother came rushing to my mind as I heard the ship start moving. I closed my eyes hopping that the cago wouldn't fall on me and within an hour or more I fell asleep. Ethan's POV... "Sir your breakfast is ready." a maid entered Ethan's room pushing a rolley of food. he came out of his bathroom with only a towel on his lower body which made the maid almost spill the coffee to the floor which he very well noticed. putting on a smirk, he approached her intentionally and stood just inches away from her. "looks like you like what you see" he said seductively which made her almost treap to the floor. "yes sir I really love what I see. and I wonder if I can also get more than seeing" she smiled and held out her hand to touch his bare chest. but he held her hand before she could and pushed her to the wall before grabbing her neck tightly. "you should always know your place " he opened the door and pushed her out. " you are fired" he closed his door in anger.
