LOGINCHAPTER 193âKADENâS POVI woke with Brenda still in my arms with her head pressed against my chest. I didnât try to move. I let her stay there."She stirred from her sleep and gave me a kiss. She pouted and said she had something to ask from me.""What's that?" I said."I know you have forgiven me and I want you to please forgive James and Kira also, they were not at fault." She said.âIâve already forgiven you,â I said. âYou, Kira, James. All of you. Donât worry about it anymore.âShe blinked up at me. âYou⌠really?ââYes,â I said. âItâs done. You donât have to think about it.âShe relaxed slightly but the moment didnât last. A sharp knock came at the door.âSir Kaden, Gabe wants to see you. He said he has a lot to tell you,â James called.I smirked because I had been expecting that for him.I stood, brushing my hand down her arm. âI will be back in an hour. Stay here.âShe nodded.I got dressed with Brenda's assistant and headed straight to the warehouse.I went straight to where Ga
CHAPTER 192âBrendaâs POVThe morning sunlight spilled into the room. I blinked rapidly trying to adjust to the brightness. My body felt sore but mostly it was the emptiness beside me that hit me first.I frowned. Kaden wasnât there or he hasn't come back.A soft knock came at the door.âMiss Brenda, your breakfast is here,â the maid said, poking her head inside.âThank you,â I said quietly.She placed it on the side table. While I sat up slowly.âWhere⌠where is Kaden?â I asked.The maid hesitated for a second. âHe is⌠in the guest room sleeping, Miss. He said not to be disturbed.âMy chest tightened. Guest room? Sleeping? Not beside me?I nodded slowly, trying not to let my disappointment show. âAlright⌠thank you.âShe left, closing the door gently behind her.I stared at the tray for a moment, poked at the eggs. I wasnât hungry, but I forced myself to eat. Each bite tasted bitter.Halfway through, the door opened again and Kira stepped in.âMorning,â she said. âDid you eat already?
Chapter 191_Kadenâs POVI loom over Gabe, letting the silence do the work. His chest heaves and wet blood dripping onto the floor.âLast chance,â I say. âName him. The one running you always run to. The one backing your sorry ass.âHe spits blood onto the floor. âI⌠I told you. Iâm on my own. Youâll never find him.âI snort, crouching closer. âYou think I give a fuck about your pride?âHis jaw tightens. His fists tremble. I straighten, pacing around him like a predator circling prey. âYouâre a pawn. And pawns always fold when the board comes crashing down.âHe glares at me, his chest rising and falling, blood dripping from his lips. âI donât fold. Youâll see. You think your tricks scare me? You⌠youâre nothing.âI laugh coldly. âNothing? Look at you. Naked, bleeding, alone in my warehouse. Youâre already dead in every meaningful sense.âHe spits again, defiance in every movement, but I see the way he flinches when I step closer.I crouch near him, almost nose-to-nose. âName him. One w
Chapter 190_Kadenâs POVWe finally got to my mansion. I carried Brenda from the car and took her to my room while Kira and Jace followed behind. After I successfully placed Brenda inside the room, I told kira and Jace to have a rest, tomorrow will be their judgement day.I went downstairs and told my men to drive to the warehouse.At the warehouse, my men carried Gabe inside and removed the veil. His eyes opened slowly. His eyes were Dangerous, angry and defiant. He tried to size me up with his expression, but I smirked, amused by the fire still burning in him.âPour the water on him,â I said.Cold water hit his face. His eyes opened widely involuntarily, coughing violently, spitting and sputtering. Blood mixed with water on his lips. His eyes snapped to mine again, wide with rage. But that amused me even more.âWhereâs the immoral pic? The video of Brenda?â I asked.He said nothing. He Just stared at me with his teeth clenched and fury in every line of his face.I said. "I'm not goi
Chapter 189Kadenâs POV_I kept checking the mirror, checking Brenda, and checking the sides. Kira is also asleep onlyJace was awake pressing his phone.âKaden⌠something is wrong.âBefore I even asked what she meant, I saw the headlights behind us. Bright, Fast andAggressive. It swerved once, then aligned straight behind us.Brendaâs hands flew to her mouth.âItâs Gabe⌠I know itâs him.âI didnât doubt her. The way the car was coming didnât look random. The speed was too good. Hewas chasing us with everything he had.I hit the gas, but we were still far from the others. The road stretched ahead like it wasnât ending.I called Jace, snapped at him to get ready. We had little time. I told him called Lucas to block theroad. He said they were almost at the meeting point.Brenda kept shaking her head.âHe wonât stop, Kaden. He wonât.ââI know,â I said.âLet him come.âHis car got closer. I could see movement through the windshield. More than one person. Gabedidnât come alone. He
CHAPTER 188Gabeâs POV_I couldnât stop lashing at myself for missing the one chance to sleep with Brenda. The angerwouldnât leave my chest. I kept replaying everything and asking myself who the hell the guy thatsaved her was. How did he even show up? And how did he manage to get her out?I called my men immediately and ordered them to search everywhere and bring both Brendaand the guy to me. I didnât care how long it took, they just needed to show results.But they returned empty-handed.Seeing them standing there with nothing made my blood boil.âAre you serious?â I snapped.âJust two people. Two. And you couldnât get them?â My voice was loud enough to make some ofthem flinch. They had no excuses, nothing to offer me, just useless faces staring back.I cursed under my breath and stormed toward the car. My head was still aching from earlier, andthe pain only made my irritation worse. I slammed the door shut and drove home angrily, stillcursing that guy for hitting me hard enou
