"What is wrong with you?" Alexander asked again.

I looked around the table and they were all staring at me.

Not that kind of a good stare, the one that could evaporate you in a minute.

"I'm perfectly fine. How many times would I say it?" I scowled, not liking the stare he was giving me.

He was staring at me as though he was trying to read me like an open book. I hated it.

He nodded.

"My personal assistant here in Italy will come in tomorrow at noon. Since we'll be staying here for a while, she'll give you a notepad and put you through on what you're going to be doing for me. In every job you get right, I'll pay you and you can pay me my debt."

"Is it Three Million or Eight Million? Or has any reduced ever since I got here?"

"Three Million."

"So all my stay here hasn't reduced a penny?"

"You're staying here? Have you done anything to reduce the money, Thawne?"

So now I'm Thawne?

  • A DROP OF BLOOD   Bells~

    Chapter 43 Bells~Katherine Today was a free day for me, and I was on the couch, working on a case Reese sent me to help them with."Hi Katherine." Mariah sat in the other seat."Is there a problem?" I asked."Nothing at all. I was just thinking, and I asked Alexander about it, and he approved." "Okay." I waited for her to throw out the vomit and leave."Will you be my bridesmaids?""What?""Alexander promised to take out Thirty Thousand dollars from your debt if you agree to it." She said with a smile.He told her about my debt? And also agreed to remove Thirty Thousand dollars?"What do you think? It's a lot of money, yes?" She cocked a brow.There was nothing for me to lose. I've lost a lot.My dignity, myself, my heart... If he would take out Thirty Thousand dollars, then there was no fucking reason to say no."Okay." "Really. Thank you so much, Rose says the food is ready, I'll let the others know." She smiled

    Chapter 42 A Lot~Katherine "Thank you so much, Reese. I don't know what I would have done today without you. Thank you once again." I thanked her for the umpteenth time."It's alright. I didn't do much, you did everything." She waved me off and ignited the engine of her car.The gates were opened once again and she zoomed off.I sighed, looking at the mansion and what awaited me.The smell of food wafted in the air, the smell sweet and mouth-watering.I stepped into the mansion and headed inside. The dining table had been arranged and Enzo was seated on the couch with his phone in hand.Dante was probably cooking, and Alexander was coming down the stairs with Mariah."Good evening, Enzo." I greeted him and he flashed a smile."How was your day, Tech Analyst?" "It was fine, thank you." I continued to my room without saying another word, not until Mariah decided to open her big mouth."I thought a worker was supposed to gre

  • A DROP OF BLOOD   Hard Worker~

    Chapter 41 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 felt like staring at a board of further mathematics, but I didn't give up.I went to YouTube, searched for keys to analyse them and soon I was pretty good at it."Are you done with the first one?" Reese asked and I nodded, giving her the notepad.Her eyes widened in surprise and she smiled."Lunch on me, you deserve it. I didn't expect you to get it at once. You're a genius." She complimented."Thank you," I murmured. It felt good to hear that I was good at something for once in my life."But yo

  • A DROP OF BLOOD   Maybe~

    Chapter 39 Maybe~Katherine By the time we left the party, there were whispers everywhere. Following me like a burnt prayer of supplication.The women were not at all subtle about it, their whispers, of course, were about me being the next woman to warm his bed, and in no time, I'd be discarded like a toy.Maybe they were right.After all, I was just here because of the deal, and warming his bed was my job, but it still hurts like fucking bitch."Are you alright?" Enzo asked as we stepped into the large space of Alexander's mansion. This mansion surpassed that in New York, cause what the fuck?Being rich was definitely a good thing."I'm fine." I faked a smile.I was not. A lot was on my mind and I hated every voice going through my head.I felt his gaze on me and I looked up to see Alexander's eyes on me. I shrugged and looked away, having no strength to partake in a staring contest.The outside was just a tale compared t

  • A DROP OF BLOOD   Chaos Served Hot ~

    Chapter 38 Chaos Served Hot~KatherineI wasn't ready.Not for the food.Not for the stares.And definitely not for the way Alexander pulled out a chair for me like he hadn’t just scorched my ear with his breath.The women all looked our way—every single one of them.Some smiled politely, others whispered behind plastic wine glasses, but their eyes did the most talking. And in that moment, I realized one terrifying truth:I was sitting beside Alexander.Not behind him.Not somewhere in the background.Right beside him. Front row seat.God help me.I was a big girl and I wouldn't embarrass us both by peeing on myself.I grabbed my fork and dug into the food."You’re making me a target," I whispered under my breath as I ate the meat.Mmmm.... delicious, mouth-watering.I moaned mistakenly and jerked up and my thighs brushed his, and I instantly regretted wearing shorts.He tilted his head toward me, voice low as he stared at our th
