Chapter 53

Venomous Threats

Elena

I was still jumpy the next morning while I dressed up, getting ready to go to work. Priest's discovery the previous day had left me rattled.

A tracker on my car? The thought left me feeling petrified, I hadn't been able to sleep at night, my mind wandering with stray thoughts.

Whatever it was, it couldn't be good. Heavens knew how long it'd been in the car I thought, staring at my reflection in the mirror. My eyes were slightly swollen from the lack of sleep, I was only grateful that Jenna had taken Lily to school so she hadn't noticed it.

I didn't waste time, within minutes I was all dressed and ready to go. I was stunned when I stepped outside, a sleek black car was parked at the curb. Before I could react the glass winded down, revealing Priest.

“I'll be taking you to work, Miss Elena,” he nodded by way of greeting. I stared, my stomach twisting with dread as images of yesterday flashed through my mind.

Damien's orders. That was the only reaso

  • CHASED BY TWO BILLIONAIRES    66: Long gone

    Chapter: 66: Long goneDamienThe hum of the car engine was the only sound in the quiet night. I turned to look into the car to see Lily asleep in the back seat, her small hands curled up into fists and her tiny face peaceful, unaware of how far she had crept her way into my heart. Her sleep was so peaceful, a contrast to the gnawing unease I was feeling. Elena had gone to relieve herself a few minutes ago. And she should have been back. I was starting to get restless.I turned my head toward the dimly lit gas station, my fingers drumming against the steering wheel. Turning my head toward Priest, who stood a few feet away, his stance relaxed but his gaze vigilant. He was good at his job, yet even he hadn’t moved—meaning he hadn’t sensed a threat. The man missed nothing— that should have reassured me but it didn’t. My gut told me something was off.Something just wasn’t right.“Priest.”“yes.”“Go check on Elena,” I ordered. I couldn’t sit still waiting any longer. Just a minute aft

    Chapter: 65: FunfairElena“Mommy.” Lilly came out running towards me. I scooped her up into my embrace. We both got back into the house, and I left Damien who was in a conversation with Priest outside. Damien had asked Priest to be in charge of my protection so he was mostly around my apartment.“How was last night? Jenna’s voice came in giving me a suggestive look.I chuckled. “Nothing.” Jenna smirked, leaning in closer. “Uh-huh, you sure nothing’.” she cocked an eyebrow. “That’s exactly what people say when something happens,” she added. I rolled my eyes, trying to suppress a smile. “I’m serious, and Lily is here,” I added gesturing that we would talk later.Her features lightened up and I needed no one to explain how far her thoughts ran. “Mommy let’s go,” Lily tugged at my dress looking up at me with wide eyes. Jenna waved a hand dramatically. “Fine, fine, I’ll let it go… for now. But just know, I have questions and I expect answers later.”“ Alright,” I said reassuring her

  • CHASED BY TWO BILLIONAIRES    64: Family

    Chapter: 64: Family ElenaI just got off a call with Jenna and Lily when I realized I had nothing appropriate to wear.I turned to face Damien who was now standing by the kitchen counter. “What am I supposed to wear? I can’t go out in my work clothes,” I said just as the door bell rang. “They are here,” he said, as though he was expecting someone. “Who is here?” I questioned.“Your clothes,” he responded while I gave him a confused look. “I ordered something for you to wear,” he added, heading to the door to receive the package.“You don’t even know the size I wear.”“I’m not blind Elena, plus my hands have been around your body more than once,” he said, a grin placed on his face.“I think that makes me qualified enough to tell what size of clothes you wear,” he added, handing the package to me.“Go try it on and let me know if you like it,” he said, placing a kiss on my forehead. I couldn’t help but ask. “Why, why are you doing all this?” “Buying you clothes?”“Damien, you know

    Chapter: 63: Where You Belong ElenaRing,Ring.Alarm noises filled the air waking me up from sleep. I don’t have an alarm, so why was I being woken up by one?I fluttered my eyes open as a pang of headache hit me. “Ahh,” I winced. Panic bubbled in my chest as I took in my surroundings. “What the hell.”I sat up quickly, my head spinning in the process. Think, Elena. Think.Bits and pieces of the night before made their way through my mind which only meant I was at Damien’s house. But why was I naked? “Did he? Did we,” confusion set in. I hadn’t gone all the way yet with Damien, and quite frankly I wasn’t ready too.The door creaked open, and I held my breath.A tall shirtless Damien stepped in. “You’re finally awake,” his voice came in smooth and calm, a stark contrast to how I felt on the inside. “What did you do to me?” “Where are my clothes?” I questioned annoyance etched on my face.“Whoa, whoa slow down Elena,” he said gesturing with his hands for me to calm down. “One

    Chapter: 62: A Dangerous GameElenaThe alcohol was yet to kick in so I was still aware of my surroundings and could still speak normally. We kept walking in the cool night air without Damien saying a word. It was unsettling how he could be so silent while my mind was spinning with thoughts.“Are we going somewhere?” I asked, breaking the silence.He didn’t answer.I huffed. “What about the business you wanted to talk about?”Still nothing.I frowned, my steps starting to falter. “How long are we going to be walking for? I’m tired.”I exhaled sharply. “Won’t you at least say something?” I kept bombarding him with questions.“Why—,” left my mouth before he cut me off.“You talk a lot for someone who claims to be tired,” he finally spoke, amusement flicking in his eyes.“Well— my leg hurts not my mouth,” I shot back. His lips curved into a smirk. “So are you asking that I carry you?”I hesitated for a moment. ‘He wasn’t serious, was he?’ I thought, peeking at him from the corner of m

    Chapter: 61:Unplanned Encounters Elena With a click of the door. Nothing, nothing happens “I locked the door when I came in,” Damien whispers in my ear. Relief at the sound of his words washed over me but it was short lived as Ethan’s voice came through. “Elena I know you’re in there, lunch break is going to be over soon.” We usually ate together during lunch breaks so it’s not surprising that he came looking for me. “Damien,” I whispered giving him a look that needed no explanation. “I’m coming Ethan,” I said awkwardly but loud enough to be heard outside the door. We both arranged our clothes, well mostly mine. Damien helped me, his fingers brushing against my skin wiping away the bodily fluids—the lingering traces of our intimacy. We were now both good as new for the most part. “I’ll see you later,” Damien said to only my hearing as I opened the door. It was hard to miss the surprised look on Ethan’s face. Damien paid him no mind walking past him
