Chapter: CHAPTER 50:RUMOUR HAS IT
I still had to at the end of the day."Once he doubled down I realized if it wasn't me it was gonna be him, and I know you didn't want that.""So I was the first time for a while?""Only a few weeks.""Oh..""And why the hell did you try so hard? Little did I know you have a damn boyfriend.""I mean I didn't try that har-""You did. At least until the other guys started provoking you.""You were underestimating me! Unlike most of the girls in there I wasn't helpless. I would've gotten by just fine without your help.""Bullshit." He scoffs."It's true! I was just trying to show you that I wasn't some damsel in distress.""By what, performing a whore's talent??!""Maybe...""Cause believe me, I've never met a whore with more than five brain cells.""Is that supposed to be an insult?""You're not a whore.""What makes you say that?""Because of how loyal you are Liam.""You just watched me kiss a man on the subway...""I can see what you two have.""And?"He leans back in his chair and

A DAY AFTERPausing our cash flow has made a mess that I've spent all week trying to clean. Everything has been so perfect until now, so it caused a lot of confusion having to dip into our saved funds. If I wasn't by Killian’s side I wouldn't have gotten an ounce of respect from anyone. There were a couple familiar faces from meetings that helped my case, but people even laughed at them.I plan to stick to either Nathaniel or Vera's side most of tonight. Liam thinks he will make it, but weather in LA slowed down his flight. He was supposed to be back a couple hours ago. I guess if he lands in time he will be coming straight from the airport.The subway is expectedly packed. I scored an end seat, and there's even an attractive businessman in his 30's to my left. Bruno got a seat across from me, but he's stuck next to this lady I'm sure is on meth. The rest are gathered around the pole in front of us."So did any of you figure out who you're kissing yet?" I ask them, but I already k

Chapter: CHAPTER 48:ALL EYES ON HER
"He said he could easily change it to our money?""Sure it's easy for him, but such a big offer is usually reciprocated. Obviously you don't have something as important to give, so I'll settle for less.""What is less in your opinion?"He looks away from me for a second to think. I despise how impressive his speeches are. I almost never know how to match him. He always has upper hand without even trying.When his thinking stops, he turns back to me and sighs."Well I don't actually know yet, so why don't you give me your best pitch."I know exactly what he's looking for out of me, but he's depending on my failure to present that in front of others. Maybe I can get this over with fast."I'll make it worth your while.." I say nervously. He looks around at everyone before responding."Our while, or my while...?" He says slowly, leaning back in his seat.Why the hell does he have such a good poker face? I've been cursed with watching my own nerves from the outside of my body."Your whil

Chapter: CHAPTER 47:STRINGS ATTACHED
Today Liam is meeting with the guy that launders majority of his money. He's never really filled me in on all of the details, but I know how we do our own. It goes through all sorts of small or large businesses that attract lots of customers, then it's washed and kept in a storage building we own.He told me I should sit this meeting out, which is fair enough because it has nothing to do with me. I plan to just watch some Netflix shows I need to catch up on. I made myself a salad to eat before starting.The penthouse is pretty quiet while they are meeting. I can see them in the living room through the doorway. They're all dressed in casual business wear. I'm shocked to see Liam in a shirt and tie. The guy from last night's party seems to be the focus of their attention. He must be bringing up some new idea.I hear the elevator buzzer go off. Maybe they are supposed to meet with someone else. I walk over and press the button to talk."Who is it?" I ask politely."Nara, it's Killian. Bu

Chapter: CHAPTER 46:CHECKMATE
You aren't the fucking puppet master of the Mafia. You may be damn close, but you failed to attach one string."This is not the conversation I had pictured.Liam is showing no remorse. It's like he had this speech planned.Mr. Luca sighs. "And who would that be?"He asks through his teeth."Me. You try to govern me, and for a while you did, but not anymore. I cut more and more of your strings until I left you with two weightless wooden sticks."Liam would be an amazing poet."You're still a kid Liam. You barely know what's best."That irks him a little more than it should've. I know he thinks that too."Kid... Maybe I am a kid, but I took over your mafia without a damn coronation. The title in a few weeks will just be for my ego."Mr. Luca is struggling to respond. He wasn't prepared for anything like this."Why are we doing this now son?" He scoffs."Public place. Also, we have news we think you'll enjoy.""Can we sit down at least?" He sighs."Sure." Liam says, giving him a petty sm

Chapter: CHAPTER 45:HIS FATHER'S SON
I gave one final push to make him go faster, and sure enough he does the same. We both are moaning and groaning until I feel him jerk. He pauses his movements for a second as he experiences his orgasm. It edges me knowing I did that to him.As he finally finishes, he backs his head up so he can look me in the eyes. Now I'm a little nervous.He shocks me by moving his thumb even faster against me. It's practically vibrating. I grabbed onto his other shoulder so to relieve some tension. I let out such a loud moan, followed by little ones.He pauses.I look up at his eyes."W-wait no- keep going!" I demand.He lets out a chuckle and starts it again, going just as fast. I finally hit my limit. He lets me ride it out for as long as possible. As soon as my breath calms, he slows it down."Shit Liam.." I smile.He lowered my leg to let me stand on my own two feet. Then he kisses me gently again."Finish up and come to my room. I want you in my arms."That makes my face flush."Alright." I sm

Chapter: CHAPTER 45:THE ANSWER I DIDNT WANT
"He wouldn't," I began. "He can't.""Why would he?," Rose asked, voicing her own thoughts. "You knew about this?," she asked, turning to Lucas. He frantically shook his head, no."I want proof," I suddenly said as I leaned on the desk. I've known him since I was a child.There's no way he'd do this. I get that he loves me but he wouldn't go this far to get me, would he?Isabella let out a scoff making me snap my head to her. "You want proof? Peoples lives are at stake and you want proof? The truth is that Stephan , one of your best friends, is giving inside information to the enemy. He's fucking making deals with the devil!""They could be wrong," I said simply. "I thought the devil was right in front of us." I was referring to Sebastian. His face, that was full of emotions the whole time we were away, was masked once again, hiding his true emotions from me.Sebastian is known as many things and the devil being one of them so she instantly knew who I was talking about.Rose quickly us

"Seb!," I called out as I grabbed my suitcases.He was already halfway down the hallway with his bags. I did a quick glance at the room, trying to make sure we have everything."Hurry up!," he called out, not even looking back. I rolled my eyes. Suddenly, a loud ringing noise filed the silence in the room. I followed the sound until I saw a phone in the bathroom.I checked my pockets. It wasn't mine. I glanced at the lock screen to see a picture of Seb and I.It was cute. I changed it last night from his boring black background.Isabella called. His best friend Isabella? Doesn't she already know that we're coming back?The phone chimed signalling that he had a text message. I didn't need to unlock the phone for the full message to just pop up.I'm so sorry about what happened that night.It won't happen against but just please can you call me back? -IsabellaWhat happened that night? What night is she talking about? Weren't they fine before we left?I held his phone tightly in my han

Chapter: CHAPTER 43:A PROMISE BETWEEN US
I felt something being put over my lower half. I cracked an eye open to Sebastian at the door.Words were shared between him and whoever was on the other side before they walked in and left a cart of food. When they left, I turned in the bed, moving whatever it was he put over me.As if he knew what I was about to ask, he spoke."Your ass was hanging out so I put a blanket on over you.""There's this thing that I'm wearing and it's called a T-shirt. It's also something which you could've just pulled down," I said feigning shock."Where's the fun in that?," he simply asked.'''Cause I can just rip the blanket off you and-.""Horny motherf," I began to say."I'm proud of you," he cut in, sarcastically."You've found yourself another swear to say!""And I'll find another one unless you hand me the pancakes please," I demanded sweetly. He rolled his eyes and passed me the plate.After a couple of seconds of silence, he spoke,"Every year, I'd go to visit Adrian." My heart broke at that se

Chapter: CHAPTER 42:HATES MEANS LOVE
He closed our hotel room door behind us. I turned to face him and crossed my arms over my chest, narrowing my eyes at him."Don't fucking start," he groaned out."What the hell was that?," I asked. "Were you planning on beating some guy up in the middle of the beach?""Could've," he mumbled. "That would've taught him to keep his eyes to himself.""So you're saying I should've beaten that girl up then?""What girl?," he asked, confused."The one that was practically drooling over you in the fucking store," I snapped, getting heated up. "Don't act like you didn't fucking see her.""I didn't.""I'm sure you didn't. You were lapping it all up.You might as well have just jumped her pants right there; I'm sure she'd have no objections.""The only pants I'm planning on getting into are yours." I let out a scoff. "You might as well have just flashed those guys. I'm sure they would ve loved that.""Fuck you!," I hissed out. He was acting like a fucking child. "I might go find them. I'm sure t

Chapter: CHAPTER 41:JUST ME AND YOU
Finally, we were free to leave New York. We were going for our vacation that was in a whole other country. We were on the jet with only ourselves for entertainment.The monopoly board sat in front of us with my thousands of properties covering it. "I'm fucking loaded," I cheered as I bought another property. He rolled his eyes."You're cheating," he accused as he eyed up the bank next to me. So what if I'm also the banker?"Like fuck," I scoffed out. "Can't handle it that I'm winning, can you?""Fuck you," he glared as he moved the hat on the board."Give me a place and a time and I'll try to fit you in," I joked as I shrugged my shoulders before I rolled the dice for my go."So you're a busy woman then, huh?," he asked.I nodded my head. "Tell me who these other guys are. I'll make sure you're free." He winked.I rolled my eyes."What are you gonna do? Bash their faces in?You can't even beat me!," I laughed. He stood up from his spot on the bed and towered over me."I can't beat you

Chapter: CHAPTER 40:CHAOS AND LOVE
"No!," I yelled out in a fit of laughter. "Please!Sebastian! I'll do anything you ask!""Anything?," he asked, glancing down at me with a mischievous glint in his eyes. A smirk grew on his face as ideas formed in that head of his.I paused as I thought it over for a minute, finally being able to think straight after being tickled to death. "No," I rushed out, wanting to stop any inappropriate thoughts from circling in his mind."Really?," he asked. I nodded my head. Before I knew it, his fingers worked their magic on me as I turned hysterical. My unstoppable laughter made me receive stitches in my stomach. I tried to pry his fingers away from me. I kicked my legs out and somehow managed to fall off the bed. He sat on the edge watching me, just trying to control his laughter."Fuck!," I groaned out. "That hurt.""Stop being a baby and get your ass up," he said as he got comfortable on the bed, leaning against the mountains of pillows that I just made.I pulled myself up and glared
