“I do not tolerate lies, love,”

Killian’s dark gaze pinned me to my seat and it was clear nothing would satisfy him but the truth. He has a way of looking at me, putting me on edge and yet making me feel safe, pressing me to reveal more than I want to. His eyes wander on my face, searching again as if he will read my mind.

A moment passed and neither of us uttered anything and then, he finally spoke as if he found what he was looking for.

“There is a strategic reason for this,” he said, his head tilted, looking deep into my eyes and his expression turned thoughtful.

“This is not a whim, you don’t do things on a whim,” he whispered the last part more to himself and his gaze became clear. The probing gaze that was intimidating me was now turning soft.

“What is it?” he asked, not freeing me from the hold of his gaze and I blinked. He raised his hand and cupped my face, I froze as he caressed my cheek softly. The gesture was surprisingly tender and it gutted me.

I am lying, I am lyi

  • An Illicit Obsession    Chapter 95

    I did think of the possibility that Tommen knew something, but this… the extent I couldn’t guess. But now, he might have guessed already that I have something to do with KJM, and this will cost me—what I am not willing to pay.Killian moved before I did, the chair he was casually rocking now fell forward with a thud as he abruptly got up, his phone in his hands, making calls as he paced the room. I heard him talking and setting up as I pulled out my laptop from under my desk. After all of my previous devices were thrown out, I was provided the replacement. I configured it as before.Good thing everyone is already attuned. My fingers fly on the keyboard with practiced ease, as my thoughts run a mile a minute to make sure I don’t miss anything. This time I can’t afford any mistake.“I need to know everyone’s current location on KJM,” Killian's voice was low but commanding. It was the kind of voice that one wouldn’t be able to look away from, even if he was coming at them with a knife.M

    This is the answer I was looking for, I cannot dig deeper without getting away from Killian.Tommen's connection to Mengs and the Knights is so tangled. The white file that Misha gave me haunts my dreams and now Adeline’s lifeless body, I can't get away from it.I don't know what he wants? Why he wants to kill me so much?Why he hates me so much?In the headquarters, I can find out more.If every Anderson was a Shadow Knight once, then I might as well continue the family curse.“No,” Killian’s jaw tightens and his refusal comes harsh.“Yes," I emphasize."Are you forgetting the reason we are sending Jina there, you are not as safe there as we thought."“I am already running from the murder charges, I think I will quite fit in,” I deflected.Killian’s expression darkens. Alright, if humor doesn’t work logic will.“If you want me trained and to learn to protect myself and figure out things faster, let me be at the thick of it all.""My presence will focus everyone’s attention on me and

    There was not much afterwards. Kate escorted Jina out, and we set up a plan for her to join the SNO. This sudden entrance of the unknown person required an elaborate plan. This gives me quite an insight into the elusive style of Shadow Knights' requirement system. Jina, alias—Sara Peterson, which I don’t know how Killian came up with these names, is running from an underground fighting ring. Kate found her on the street and recruit her for her potential and her history, making her less likely to betray the organization. Every recruitment process goes through a background and it involves getting leverage on them. Killian is planning to feed fake information to his own organization. “We have to fabricate some history that doesn’t lead them to Jina’s former place of employment.” “Nothing can lead them there,” I said coolly, crossing my legs and leaning back in my chair. He looked at me with questions in his eyes. “The place was burned to the ground,” I answered, not waiting for him t

    "How old are you?"Those were the first words that came out, and I tilted my head to look up and meet his eyes. Gun Min He had 'what the fuck' written all over his face."That is not relevant. Have you come with the information I asked you for?" I asked coolly.The shock disappeared, and a dark expression shadowed his face."I do not deal with kids."He went past me."You know my age doesn't change the fact that I have your grandmother's details." I turned to look at him, and he turned to me, furious."She will be deported, and isn't she sick?" I asked, blinking at him, taking a long drag of my cigarette and blowing it out. Gun Min He’s gaze fell to my action and harden his eyes."Do you have any idea what you are doing, blackmailing an FBI agent and basically being an accomplice in murder?""My client requires certain information; what he does with it?”I shrugged. “It is none of my business," I replied, pulling out my phone and looking down at the time. Damn it, I need to close this a

  • An Illicit Obsession    Chapter 90

    Kate was walking behind Jina when they entered the office. Killian said a quiet, "Come in." "What are you doing here?" I asked, looking at Jina and then first at Kate. Kate and I don't have many interactions besides the fact Killian trusts her enough to have a fake marriage with her and she is into women. I don't know much about her and if I'm being honest, I don't care. The fact she is walking with my best friend. It was alarming. "I thought Killian was filling you in on our plan," Jina said nonchalantly, plopping herself on the cream-colored couch, like she already was filled in about the said plan. I gritted my teeth. Kate leaned on the wall behind the couch without saying anything, a neutral expression on her face. "You mean..." I looked at Killian and then her, "You want to go undercover in SNO?" I asked, still not believing this ridiculous idea. "No one knows her and you have to admit, she can handle herself, and she might be the only one we can trust," Kate said, her voice
