I was cool with her job, provided she was not doing it with Nolan because the stupid boy made her do the weirdest shit, simply for his own fantasy, and she was simply too blind to see it. Nolan was only marking his time, patiently waiting for an opportunity to shoot his shot or sleep with her—even t

Once we were outside, she yanked her hand from mine, rubbing her wrists to ease the bruises that had begun to form. As soon as I saw the reddish spots, concern flashed in my eyes and I examined the bruises, but she quickly retreated, eyeing me with a scoff. “What the hell, Russel? How long do you
Chapter 127 ALLESIA ~~~0~~~~ I could feel his anger from the way he gripped the steering wheel. His eyes had gone a darker shade of green, his expression unwelcoming. As if the current speed wasn't enough, he slammed his foot into the accelerator with brutal force. The sudden roar of the engine
I swallowed. I was still dressed in a lingerie and fishnet gown. He didn't give me a chance to change when he dragged me out of the studio. “I'm not exactly dressed the part.” Sparing me a brief glance, he shook his head. “So you are concerned about how these people might react to seeing you like
“You want to race your piece of shit car against mine, Aldo?” Russel asked. “I would so love to smoke your ass, but I hate easy victories.” “I guarantee you, it's not going to be an easy one,” Aldo voiced. “Besides, there's a catch.” Russel's face crowded with sudden interest. “A catch that would
Chapter 128 ALLESIA ~~~°~~~ I wasn't sure I had the heart to sit through this suicide mission, but since I had no choice in the matter, I secured myself into the passenger seat with the safety belt securely in place. My hands dug into each side of the seat as I mumbled some words of prayer, whi

I watched as Vincenzo Mancini stepped down from the private jet. Dressed in a sleek, custom-tailored Italian suit, he took a minute to adjust his tie and cufflinks. The handsome bastard, I thought with a proud grin, ever so cold. It was past 10PM, but Vincenzo had no intentions of staying the nig
I watched her for a moment, marveling at her glow and beauty, which just kept increasing like her bump every day. She looked radiant, even more so with the big swell of her belly showing. Her staff saw me first because they slowly began to disperse; all of them knew how protective I was of my wife
EPILOGUE RUSSEL ~~~0~~~ I stood perfectly still, my thoughts reeling as I waited in the quiet hall of the warehouse. During my absence, Stacy had refused to speak, see, or let anyone touch her. Even Kegan, who was supposed to order a pregnancy test done for her by now, couldn’t do that because
I reached out and touched his face, “I have the perfect man, and I wish to keep everything around us perfect.” After a while, Russel turned to me with a mischievous smile. “You know, we still have some time before we have to go back.” I raised an eyebrow. “What are you suggesting?” He leaned in,
