Hard Worker~

Katherine

Reese, Alexander's personal assistant was nothing like I thought she'd be.

She was pretty, calm, and patient. I had never met someone as patient as her.

She went through every detail with me, shared her thoughts, and allowed me to share mine.

She gave me a work to finish up, although she had done most of it herself, it was a struggle for me, looking at the notepad filled with codes and diagonal lines, it

  • A DROP OF BLOOD   Epilogue

    Epilogue Always ~KatherineThe world was quiet.Not the absence-of-sound kind of quiet, but the kind where time itself seemed to pause. I stood just beyond the tall white doors of the chapel, my fingers curled gently around the small bouquets, my dress flowing like a sea.Beside me, my three little angels stood tall, or as tall as tiny legs and shoes allowed.Dante adjusted his bowtie for the fifth time. “Do I have to walk slowly?”“Yes,” I said with a soft smile. “And straight.”He huffed. “Fine.”Alessio was clutching a small satin pillow with the rings tied carefully in the center. His eyes were wide, serious, like he understood the weight of the moment even if he was just four. He had always been like that, my little Alexander in a four-year-old body.Emilia, in her tiny version of my dress, beamed up at me with excitement dancing in her eyes.I always make the same dress for us, and we always look too good togeth

  • A DROP OF BLOOD   Joy

    Chapter 90 Joy~Katherine It has been a month.A full month since I woke up in that quiet safehouse, with the scent of antiseptic and the pain radiating throughout my whole body. A month since the nightmare ended.And somehow, I was still here. I looked at myself in the mirror, smoothing the fabric of the outfit I’d spent the last week sewing with the machine Alexander bought for me at home.A big, beautiful, smart working machine, obviously expensive than the one I had bought for the shop.The Velvet and lace material was beautiful as it flowed down my body; it had a V-neck, exposing a little cleavage, but not too bad. Behind me, Alexander stood at the doorway, watching me like he was going to eat me any time soon.“You’ve been staring for five minutes,” I said without turning around.“Correction. I’ve been appreciating.” His voice was low, amused.I caught his reflection in the mirror, smirking, and shook my head.“Don

  • A DROP OF BLOOD   Deep

    Chapter 89 Deep~ Alexander It's been two days. Two days of watching over Katherine as she slept.She woke up yesterday but went back to sleep.The sedatives were meant to make her rest...a lot.I sat beside her, one hand loosely holding hers. The IV still trailed from her wrist, and the machine beeped constantly as she inhaled and exhaled.She was fine now. The bruises weren't deep and they were beginning to fade.The doctors said she was fine, and now, we were just waiting for her to come back to me.I hadn’t slept.Not really.I’d close my eyes and still see her, on that floor...bloodied and weak. And some were even worse. A knife on her belly or a bullet on her forehead.I couldn't close my eyes, not yet. Until she's awake.I sighed and instantly jerked forward when her fingers twitched beneath mine.And again.I sat up straighter, my chest tightening as her lashes fluttered once, twice, then opened.She blinked at the

  • A DROP OF BLOOD   Los Angeles

    Chapter 89 Los Angeles ~AlexanderThe city felt different. Los Angeles was also my city, but it's been a long time since I came for a business meeting here.Dante was the front-line Boss here in Los Angeles.I stood at the edge of the pier, alone and clothed in Scar’s clothes. His scent still lingered in the collar, cheap cologne and cigarettes. Enzo, Dante, Matteo, and our men had surrounded the dock from every possible angle.High ground, blind spots, and Hidden vantage points. I cracked my neck and shifted my weight.The cold wind off the Pacific stung my skin, but I didn’t move. After getting the message from Scar's high employer, we had gone through a plan.Thirty minutes passed and yet nothing.Then the headlights. I could see the flash of light from afar until a single black SUV rolled down the long, narrow lane, tires crunching softly against the concrete. It stopped ten feet behind me. I didn’t turn, not yet.The

  • A DROP OF BLOOD   Vow

    Chapter 87 Vow ~AlexanderThe safehouse smelled of antiseptic.The sharp sting of it clung to the air, mixing with the faint hum of the heaters. The curtains were drawn, the lights dimmed. I had chosen this place instead of the estate because it was quiet and one could reach us here.Not after what had happened.Three doctors moved quietly around the room.The beeping of the machine they had brought blended with the hush of their voice as they went on and about.I had invited three potential doctors and they all knew what would be at stake if they didn't do their job properly.One checked her pulse, another adjusted the IV running into her arm and the third scribbled notes into a file."Sir?" Dr Steinfeld called out, his gaze lowered."I am listening.""She has a concussion and that's why she bled through her nose. The side of her back was cut open by a sharp object, maybe wood but she's going to be fine. Although she

  • A DROP OF BLOOD   Safe~

    Chapter 86 Safe~AlexanderThere was no place left to search.No corner of the city, no back alley, no ruined warehouse that hadn’t been turned upside down. We had burned through Snow Hill twice, and still...nothing.But I couldn’t stop. I wouldn’t stop.Not while Katherine was still out there. All alone and probably....I couldn't fathom the words, nor could I leave my lips.My phone buzzed against my palm, cutting through the silence of the car. Matteo’s name flashed across the screen, followed by a message.'Got something.'A second later, a video feed loaded. My chest tightened as I watched.It was grainy footage from an old CCTV camera. The angle was poor, covering only a block near her shop. For a long moment, there was nothing, just the wind dragging leaves across the pavement. Then, a man appeared. Scar.He walked into her shop after looking around the place.I waited.But he never came back out. One minute...t
