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.

  • An Illicit Obsession    Chapter 105

    “I don’t think Killian knows, Mila.” Jina’s words rang quietly in my ears. It took me a moment to process the possibilities. I grabbed her arm and started pulling her away from the corner. “We can’t talk about this here.” We walked in the opposite direction of the training rooms, heading toward Killian’s office.The moment we were inside, I shut the door and turned, pinning her with my gaze. To her credit, she looked composed. “What do you mean Killian doesn’t know?”There was supposed to be an interrogation of these people after the supposed… elimination. As horrible as it is to think about, I’d rather the people trying to kill me didn’t survive. But directly getting rid of them doesn’t help us achieve our goals.“From the moment I told Kate about my solid grounding of Derek and Jessica being in Tommen’s fold while he was here, Kate confronted them immediately. The next thing I know, there’s a knife in their hearts and their bodies are caught by two other people before they can ev

  • An Illicit Obsession    Chapter 104

    In a way, I think I always knew. How, after a few protests and one conversation, he let me go — he was not that worried about Tommen, and the ones he is truly keeping an eye on are not going to expose themselves so easily. I am not their target.“So these recruiters are the main focus of your trap and Tommen is on board with them?”“They are humouring Tommen as of now, since he has now lost the support of the Mengs.”That stopped me in my tracks. “Our plan worked?”“Meng Shao doesn’t have Tommen yet, but Christen Meng is officially off the radar.”“But Tommen is still out of reach.”The corner of Killian’s eye twitched a little at the reminder.“I have to admit, even I see what is going on, but I still don’t know where this is going.”Recruiters are the key to it now — at least that was clear.To this I was met only with silence for a reply, and somehow, when I looked up at Killian I saw a hesitation in his eyes before he masked it quickly, and it made me wonder: what does Killian wa

  • An Illicit Obsession    Chapter 103

    The first thing I felt in the morning was something warm, soft, and tender pressing on my temple. For once I was not cold as I started to gain consciousness. I dreamed Killian was beside me and, for once, he wasn’t accusing me of anything; I was warmly entrapped in his embrace, his grip iron-clad. I hummed as the warm, soft kiss trailed down my cheek. Am I still dreaming? I wondered.I sighed and chased that feeling when it reached my lips; my hands flew to where it was coming from. When they found something solid and hard, my eyes flew open—this was not a dream. Purely on instinct I threw the figure off me, pushing him down on the bed and ready to jam my fist, but he was too fast and caught it in a tight grip.The sleepy fog cleared from my brain and my vision sharpened. I took in the striking, handsome face and the dark eyes looking at me, something twinkling in them—concern, and a bit of amusement too.But I was more shocked. Didn’t he say he wouldn’t come here?Then a memory flash

    The red light reflected through the glass wall, almost blinding me. I followed the reflection with squinting eyes, trying to make sense through all the noise, and my gaze fell down to see the light was coming from the tiny little spots beneath the glass, and then it clicked. Motion detectors. The guards were not here, so they activated motion detectors. I touched the glass wall that I could barely make out, now illuminated, making it clear this is the place. I have to find a way to disable the security system. There was no door and not any visible entrance, but I am sure the room is on the other side. I heard footsteps, and my heartbeat rang in my ear frantically. I have to get out of here. I slipped past the medical wing, and there are some advantages studying the structure of this place since I got here. I know how to take shortcuts from here to Killian and my quarters. At least all that running was paying off. By the time I was in my room, I hadn’t broken a sweat. I sighed a

    Today was a shooting practice. Now, this part I thought I would enjoy, maybe because I was already good at it. The late-night training Jina pushed Misha to get me seems now will be worth it. Jina’s aim was decent at best, all her skill went into fighting, but this—this I was good at.My smugness was, however, short-lived.“Doesn’t matter what you have learned so far, forget all of it,” he said while handing me the gun. I rolled my eyes.“Don’t roll your eyes at me.”That just made me do it one more time. He huffed, one of those tired, insufferable huffs before he started to show me how to stand, correct my posture. I followed his instruction to the T.I raised my gun to the black sheet target several feet away and pulled the trigger. He watched me from behind and, no matter how correct my target hit, he would just say, “Again.”I lost count how many rounds happened and my shoulder started to ache. I didn’t wait for his “again” anymore. I kept reloading the gun and kept shooting until,

  • An Illicit Obsession    Chapter 100

    “Tommen got away again.”I closed my eyes, dread digging deep in the pit of my stomach. I don’t know how I should feel about this. There is one side that wants to get to him as soon as possible; on the other side, if Killian comes to know the full truth of him— I shuddered at the possibility.“Mila,” Killian’s voice coaxed me out of my thoughts. I can imagine the tenderness in his eyes, god, I want to see him.“Yes.”“Are you alright?” He asked“Yes,” I said softly, reassuringly but I can not muster anything.“I am sorry.”My heart clenched at his tone“Why are you apologizing?” I frowned.“I believe I have been a bit of over-confident,”“There is so many things we don’t know Killian,” I said, “I am not making your life any easier. You are doing a fine job, but he was hiding his true identity for two decades. It won’t be easy to catch him,” I said.This is also concerning. He manages to be one step ahead of us every time. Like he always knows where and when we are coming, or he knew
