Lucien’s POV

I had asked Carter to watch her next move after I left her in the hallway, and out of my three predictions, two played out right. She was smart and a bit too fierce for her good, but her returning on her own after almost escaping again was… rare.

Does he even know how she's feeling? He never bothered calling to check on her.She just couldn't sum up all these to love for him.“Cassia” Carter called, bringing her out of her own world entirely“Can you tell me about Lucian's past?” Cassia asked him instead, dropping her glass of wine on the table in front of them, looking at him curious about what he has to say.“Ohh…okay. What exactly do you want to know?” Carter asked her calmly“What made him join this world? Why all the killings and selling of hard drugs? There must be a reason for all these” she said defiantly.Carter sighed“Boss Lucian was never like this. In fact, he

    “Alright. Let's get going, it's getting late” Cassia said to Carter.They played and had enough fun for one day.~Secret warehouse~“Boss, I sent you some pictures just now,” the shadow said to the person on the call.“Alright. Will check them out” the voice came on the other side and hung up the call almost immediately.“Why is this whole thing getting really interesting?” The shadow muttered, bringing out a stick of cigarette from the packet laying on the table and lit it, putting it between his lips and puffing out black smoke.~Back at the clan~ “I'm so tired,” Cassia grunted as they came down from the car heading inside, then she turned, taking a look at Carter“Thank you for today, Carter” she said, with a light smile“It's a pleasure. I hope you had fun?” He asked with his hands in his pocket.“Yes, I did. Can't remember the last time I had this much fun” she said, chuckling.“That's fine. We're friends now. So expect more of it. If you don't mind” Carter said, staring intentl

  • Cassia, The Billionaire's Collateral   Chapter-Forty - Friends?

    Author's POVFrom the corner of a scattered warehouse stood a shadow, standing by the corner of the broken door, a phone held to his hand.“I want you to check in on everything that goes on at the clan and report to me. Do not miss out on any single detail” the hoarse, deep voice came from the other side of the call“Alright boss. I got this” the shadow said, and ended the call abruptly.Taking some steps forward, he brought out a stick of cigarette from the side of his pocket, and lit it, putting it between his lips and puffing out dark smoke.The mission is far from finished. It has only just begun.Cassia’s POV The sun shone brightly on my face, making me wake up.It is a beautiful day. But what's more beautiful is the fact that I have to play my violin. Can't believe I missed it this much.I stood up from the bed, rushed to the window to open it and have a clearer view of nature. I miss my life, my world. This place isn't for me. Not at all. David. My mind flashed back to the n

  • Cassia, The Billionaire's Collateral   Chapter Thirty-Nine - Let's make a deal.

    Cassia’s POV*Knock Knock*I heard a faint knock on the door. So I came down from the bed and went to get the door.Opening the door, I was an unfamiliar face wondering who he was.“Good day, Mrs Valez. Boss Carter said I should give this to you” the mobster said, handing over the violin to me.“Ohh, thank you” I said, taking the violin from him and thanking him with a light smile.I still can't believe Carter would go this far to get me the violin just because he wants us to be friends. I really feel like there's something up his sleeves, but I can't just place what it is.Opening the violin case felt like my heart was being handed back to me.The moment the latch clicked, a soft breath of warm, resin-scented air rose to my face- familiar, comforting, almost like the violin itself was exhaling after a long sleep. The burgundy velvet inside hugged the instrument so snugly it felt like I was intruding on something precious.Then I saw it.My breath caught.The violin wasn’t just beaut

  • Cassia, The Billionaire's Collateral   Chapter Thirty-Eight- Elena?

    Cassia’s POV Finding out about Lucian's past was definitely not going to be easy. I was prepared for her reaction, so when I asked her that question and she changed the topic, I knew I'll just have to wait till whenever Lucian came back.“Yeah, sure. Remember, we have to meet Carter concerning the violin” I said, stealing a glance at her because I had already ruined the mood with my questions.“Sure Miss Cassia. Just let me know when you want to meet him, and I'll take you to him” she said while still avoiding eye contact with me.Moving back inside, we headed to Carter's office, I've never been here before, and surprisingly, it looked so arranged and organized. I'm sure the maids were the ones that cleaned it. Carter can’t be that clean, considering his nature as a person.But like they say, don't judge a book by its cover, so for this one time, i’ll give him a benefit of doubt.The office had a glass window that you can easily see anything far and wide, it has such a beautiful view
