FAZER LOGINChapter Six.
BRENDA
His words kept flowing like the Darkest symphony in my ears as I tried replaying everything.
âYou asked to marry me?â I asked again to be sure.
He couldn't be serious, right?
There was no way my enemy would want to marry me, highly impossible was an understatement.
âYes! I am currently awaiting their response! I doubt that they'll deny me!â His cocky voice came and I frowned.
âHow is that possible!? You can't marry me!â I yelled frantically, The Cuffs around my ankles, dangling over my sudden forceful pull.
His proud smirk was still intact and that alone made me feel like disfiguring his whole face all together.
He was annoyingly Handsome.
âHave you forgotten our deal, princess?â He asked and I blinked.
âYou aren't taking it seriously, are you?â I asked, still pulling at the cuffs and he grinned.
A sadistic kind of grin that made me shiver.
I want him to have zero effect on me but it's so hard when I am the one tied to a fĂšcking bed!
âMy parents would never sell me out to you, they love me so much!â I said and he Rolled eyes.
âI'm pretty sure that shouldn't be coming from someone who ran away from a wedding, ARRANGED by her parents!â He said and I glared at him.
He was right.
Not accepting defeat anyways, I continued.
âYou're the enemy! I'm pretty sure my parents wouldn't allow you to have me, they are going to do every sane and insane thing possible to get me back!â
I mumbled and I seemed to have had him stuck.
I thought I had won, I really did, until he said.
âWell then! I'll just have to kill you!â
My eyes widened immediately.
âKill me?â I asked, Shocked how an harmless conversation could turn so bloody.
Okay, maybe not that harmless.
âThat's what I told your parents! I mean, if they can't hand you over to me instead of that old mafia, who's dĂŹck is probably decayed, then you might as well be dead!â
The words rolled out sinfully from his thin lips and All I could do was stare.
I've faced a lot of missions in my life, but this..this seemed like the hardest.
I've been caught and trapped by the same person who killed my brother, Austin for coming to negotiate with him and now he's threatening to kill me too if I don't marry him?
What the fĂšck goes on in this psychoâs head!
âPlease!â I started slowly and he arched an eyebrow.
If I kept cussing, he could just bring out a gun and there goes my gut!
If I keep pulling, the sharp edges of the handcuffs would dig deeper into my skin and more blood would flowâŚliterally.
So I resorted to the forbidden technique that I've never used before.
Ever.
Pleading.
âPlease what?â He asked, sitting up as if interested.
âPlease let go of me! Okay! I promise that my family would have nothing to do with your clan from now on! Just let me go!â I said, resisting the urge to cry.
Nothing would make me look weak in front of this scumbag.
Nothing!
He ignored me as he stood up, walking out of the room.
I watched his back view for a while till he disappeared behind closed doors and I finally let my tears out.
I don't cry in front of people, Mama had always told me to not show my emotions in front of anyone, especially the enemy.
But now that he's gone, I couldn't control it anymore.
Maybe if I hadn't run from the marriage.
If I had stayed and married that old fatty.
Maybe then, everything would have been alright.
But then, I remember kaden's words earlier.
âDidn't he tell you I would be coming for you? I was hoping you would put up a fight but you hopedd on my bike as if you were expecting me!â
Had he come to kill me at my wedding?
Was that the reason why he had been waiting outside?
Well, I did kill one of his men so it wouldn't be a surprise but then..
Did I really escape death but hoping on his bike?
The questioned lingered in my head as I rested by head to sleep but None came, I had a chilly feeling running down my spine and I needed Noone to tell me that Kaden was back in the room and staring at him from behind.
That darn fĂšcker.
I tried all I could to sleep but my eyes but that wasn't happening,
Being in the same room with your enemy?
What if he just decides to pick up a pillow and suffocate me at night?
I chuckled at my silliness, A bloodthirsty beast like Kaden would never kill with a pillow, unless that pillow was filled with acid and laced with toxic chemicals able to gorge my eyes out.
I chuckled yet again.
âWhat are you thinking about that is so funny, princess?â His voice came, low and nearly taunting.
I rolled my eyes and replied, still not looking at yourself.
âNone of your business, bloody psycho!â
I could feel his unending smirk and I just know he likes it.
That psycho loves me cussing at him.
He was crazy, even more crazy than me.
* * *
Like I suspected, I wasn't able to sleep with that fĂšcker's gaze on me and immediately I felt the warm sunlight from the only window in the room, indicating that it was dawn, I sat up.
My eyes hurt so much and i can already imagine them red and puffy.
I yawned out, sleepily and turned, surprised to see Kaden still staring at me.
Is he a vampire or something?
Doesn't he sleep?
âYou look so good in the morning, princess!â
I knew it was a joke.
A taunt.
A mock.
Nothing good can ever come out of his mouth.
âHungry?â He asked and I gave him a sour gaze.
âNope! For all I know you could have the food poisoned!â I snapped and he smirked again.
Gosh! Is there a DIY on how to wipe that cocky thing off his lips?
âYou think so low of me, Princess! It's hurtful!â He said, Standing up as he took wide strides towards him.
When he got close enough, I struggled angrily, forgetting the handcuffs that were still around my wrist.
Kaden brought his lips closer to my ears and whispered.
âIf you don't want to eat food, however you eat something else instead, remember what I told you at the woods? You could replace Sasha and suck on my Äicġ! I'm madly horny after watching you sleep all night!â
CHAPTER 197_KADENâS POVI was on my way to check where Gabe was being kept when I noticed someone else heading in that direction. The movement felt off, so I slowed down and watched. The person went inside. I followed quietly and stayed back.It was Malik.My trusted man.I listened as he spoke with Gabe, laying out a plan to move him to another location. I waited until they were done before stepping in. The moment he saw me, Gabe switched his act, pretending nothing had happened. I said nothing. I only smirked at his effort.The next morning, Malik came to me with what he called a solid plan. He said he had figured out a way to draw Ricardo out. I hid my reaction and let him talk. According to him, Gabe was the key. Gabe knew too much about Ricardo, and that knowledge made him valuable. Ricardo wouldnât stay hidden if Gabe was used as bait. It would be quick.I nodded, praised the idea, and told him to proceed.After Malik left, I sat back and finished my own plan. If he thought he w
CHAPTER 196âKADENâS POVBrenda stayed where she was long after Kira led Lena away.She stood in the hallway, her eyes fixed in the direction they had gone. Her lips parted slightly, then pressed together again. Confusion, curiosity, and something close to concern crossed her face.I leaned against the wall and watched her watch the empty space.She finally turned to me.âWho is she?â she asked.I didnât answer immediately. I just smiled.That made her frown. âWhy are you smiling?âI chuckled under my breath. âBecause I know how this conversation is going to end.âShe crossed her arms. âKaden.ââAlright,â I said, straightening myself. âCome inside.âI took her hand before she could protest and led her into the bedroom. The moment we stepped inside, I shut the door behind us. Brenda turned to face me, arms still crossed, waiting for me to start talking.âIâm going to tell you everything,â I said.Her brows shot up. âEverything?ââYes.âShe nodded slowly. âOkay.âI sat on the edge of the
Kaden's povThe drive to my house was quiet at first.Not the comfortable kind. The kind that sat between two people who had too much history and not enough words yet.She sat in the passenger seat with her hands folded in her lap and her fingers locked together so tightly her knuckles looked pale. She stared out the window looking so distressed.I glanced at her more times than I should have, catching myself each time and forcing my eyes back to the road. I was thinking how to reconcile the girl I knew with the lady at home.âYou donât look surprised,â she said eventually, still staring ahead.âI am,â I replied. âIâm just trying not to show it.âShe turned slightly, just enough to look at me from the corner of her eye. Then she let out a weak laugh.âYou were always like that.âI shook my head slightly. âYou just disappeared like that, Lena."My tone stayed calm, but the words came out harder than I intended. I had replayed that disappearance in my head too many times. I had asked my
CHAPTER 194âKADENâS POVYouâre back,â he said hoarsely.I didnât answer him. I pulled out my phone and walked straight toward him.âYou said Ricardo handles the east sector,â I said. âI want you to look at something.âHis eyes sharpened.I turned the screen toward him. Gabe stared at the screen for a long second.Then he laughed.âSo you found him,â he said.My grip on the phone tightened. âThatâs him?ââYes,â he said. âThatâs Ricardo.âI leaned closer. âYouâre sure.ââI donât forget the person who made me rich,â he said. âEspecially not his.âI made a call immediately. Within thirty minutes, my men were ready.We made our way to the sector. The port was busy enough to hide us, which worked in our favor.We split into pairs the moment we got closer to the warehouse district.I scanned every entrance as we moved. Gabe had said Ricardo was careful, and I believed that because this place looks like nothing happened in the last minutes at all.âTwo guards by the south door,â one of my men
CHAPTER 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?
