*His eyes scanned my bruised face, searching for answers. A careful, gentle hand caressed my cheek, intensifying the turmoil in his gaze. "He did this to you." It wasn't a question; it was a statement. But I couldn't find my voice, trapped in frozen silence. Fear gnawed at my skin as I stood amidst cold-blooded killers, surrounded by chaos and lifeless bodies. And as he held the gun, I knew more bodies would soon drop.* *** To everyone else, she was a nobody. A vessel for their perverse desires, a desperate pawn willing to fulfill their every whim. A nearsighted girl, finding solace only within the pages of her books, a portal to escape reality. But what they failed to grasp was that behind those innocent blue eyes lurked a devil, dependent on her happiness, hiding in the shadows and watching over her. And that devil was prepared to sacrifice everything for her. The scariest part? She had no clue. *"Why do you act like you're in love with me?" "Jesus, Lily," he growled, "I TATTOOED YOUR NAME ON MY FUCKING CHEST!"*

She messed up pretty bad, really bad. For the first time, he was mad, standing in the center of the room, face reddened, and pupils full on her while she tried to dodge the discomfort it sent through her.Although released from the bondage, his left wrist still held the cuff, which dangled from his hands.Sometimes, he flexed his fist like he was ready for a spar, and this time, she was sure prepared to let him beat her the hell up.She looked at his face and tried again, "You need aftercare, Rune.""No shit Sherlock!" he sneered.She sighed, taking in his glare, letting him have the upper hand while she sat down like the petulant child who was told to sit in a corner and think of what she had done.Alright he was walking up to her; he wasn't so disgusted by her actions if he could stand being this close to her, right? She saw the palm in front of her face."Give me the fucking keys." "Oh," she felt beads of sweat form on her forehead, and immediately she began to fumble around for t

KYRA.Her Enemy stepped out of his car, throwing the hoodie cap off his head, the new blonde baby hair coming into view.Kyra watched him from her motorcycle helmet in disgust as he veered around to whistle at a couple of girls waltzing out of the parking lot.Was there ever a time when Rune didn't think with his dick.But still, being in a BDSM club? What the hell was going on here? It never fit with him; was this one of his little secrets? One to which he had to hide from everyone else?She always said Rune loved pain, but she never meant it literally. She'd have suspected that getting on people's nerves got him off.The bouncers at the entrance nodded at him when he passed. They even exchanged some pleasantries. Surprisingly, he was no stranger there.Nice, she pulled off her helmet and placed it on her motorcycle, now to see what helpless sub had the misfortune of having such an annoying brute as her dom.One boot after another, she walked towards the entrance, but, as expected, s

Claiming His QueenChapter 74Edit1642 / 5000LILY'S POV."Seen Rune anywhere?" Kyra asked me from where I stood in front of the window, a beautiful sight of the aggressive beach water washing against its bank before me.But even with that, my eyes weren't on the waters. Instead, they stuck with someone sitting in front of it, knees up to her chest, staring into space as her toes dug into the sand.Eva held onto the purple vase that carried Mum's ashes. We still hadn't talked about how she left me out of decision-making involving Mum's body, and I was still mad about it; seeing her like this made my heart heavy.Poor Eva. Inside, she was still hurting."Lily?" Kyra called; it was the second time she was repeating herself. And unlike her, she didn't sound impatient.The beach house showed another side to her; although we weren't friends or acquaintances, I was happy to have the confidence that I was no longer on her wrong side.Because watching her pound against a punching bag like an

SALVATORE.Dark shades weren't the greatest shielder of identity, so he had thrown on a fake mustache; sitting outdoors on a cafe chair, Salvatore dodged the urge to look at his side and catch his reflection on the glass window beside him.Three days ago, Adler had given him the shock of his life, delegating a vital job. Enough time to cement his stand that there was something more important the Boss didn't want to give out.More proof was that the following day, as he packed, Adler had thrown on a baseball cap and slipped into a car.Salvatore had seen it all as he oversaw the parking of his bags into the booth of his car, thought to follow after the Boss, but due to results from past occasions, he knew it was fruitless.Presently, he hitched the newspaper higher. Although he read nothing in it, it was all to keep his mind from the cold infiltrating his dark woolen coat.So, he would have preferred something other than an outdoor service. For god's sake, he knew how cold this place w

"I want information on Lily Ferretti."She shouldn't have given away her feelings so quickly; with the relaxation of the strange man's body posture, he knew she knew what he was speaking about.The red light in the room wasn't enough to make out the expression on his face, even shielding the scar that ran past his eyes. Who was he, and what did he want with Lily?"I reckon if I tell you I don't know her, you won't believe me?" She raised her gaze, pinning it to where she figured his face would be. "What do you want with her?""So you do know her?""Yeah," She sat on the bed, ease In her movement and her curiosity about this man at its peak, "And because I do, I'm wondering how you got to know her real name. She's Spitfire here."He stayed quiet."Because she dominated the pole." there was a certain iciness in her voice, "She doesn't work here anymore.""She does."This stranger was holding back everything he knew. He wasn't just wealthy and pretty if he also wanted information on Lily

AUTHOR'S POV [ADLER]He threw the gun to the passenger seat of the car and wiped his hands off on a white napkin before he climbed down.Slammed by the evening breeze carrying the scent of flowers and tropical trees, he gladly inhaled. It was a far cry from gun powders, oil, and decaying flesh.Another vehicle rolling into the compound, headlight flashing bright, caught his attention and had him turned to the gates. Recognizing Priest's car, Adler waited beside his.Priest seemed to have spotted him, and he stopped right at the center of the driveway before stepping down. Before long, a goon had gotten in and drove away.His consigliere began to make his way towards him, his steps light and thumb in his pocket, his crucifix gleamed against the security lights planted outside.Salvatore stopped when they were inches apart. He looked at Adler and nodded, "Who died this time?"Adler chuckled, "Should be asking you that, there's blood on your hands, Literally."Priest looked down at his

LILY'S POVI seethed, anger boiling within me like an inferno, It felt as though flames were licking up my insides, threatening to consume me whole.Rune always calm and collected, sat on the couch and humming a tune seemingly unfazed by my fury, I couldn't understand how he could be so nonchalant while everything around us where falling apartKyra constantly shot him a glare, her eyes filled with the same frustration coursing through my veins.My legs were hurting, and the after effects of the drug, caused my view to blur repeatedly, but God forbid I calmed down like Rune wanted me to."Will you stop?" Kyra snapped from where she had her back rested against the wall.I had thought she was speaking to me and was about to portion for her a sizable amount of the anger I had been hoarding when Rune flatly said, "Don't be such a princess." then continued loudly."I demand to speak to Adler, Rune. Right this moment!" I stomped my foot, coming to a stop in front of him.And like every damn

AUTHOR'S POV [ADLER'S]"Addie, she's dead still. Now quit bugging my phone every minute like I did the drugging."A deafening tone marked the end as Adler returned the phone to the desk.Give Rune a little power, and expect to be reminded of how much one was a helpless idiot who needed him.Adler fell back against the seat, the same one he had stood behind and betrayed her trust. He raised his face to the ceiling, counting sheep; he had to do it, or else she'd be walking out of the manor with zero chance of staying alive.And to Vito? Did she crave death or mistreatment? Judging from the text messages he had the fortune of stumbling upon after he moved her to the hospital.He had had no clue what he was after being in her room and just looking around until the phone's vibration caught his attention.The more he read, the more he felt his blood steam. Whoever this man was, if he hadn't caused a massive share of her trauma, then he had caused it all. 'You don't call the shots, sugar, I

AUTHOR'S POV [SALVATORE]"Is she awake?"The first question hit him out of the blue immediately, he hit the receive. But he was more surprised Adler waited so long before he called.After drugging Lily and shipping her off, Adler's excitement for her reawakening wasn't understandable. Lily could be vulnerable, but making her choices for her? Adler had something coming."Not yet," Salvatore responded, "Knocked her out pretty bad that she doesn't even show signs of it."Adler sighed, "It was a mild one. She would be up before you know it." he said it like he was trying to convince himself that his crime against her wasn't that huge.A day ago, as Adler carried her to the car, she muttered through heavy lips, "How could you?"So right now, Salvatore was more thankful she hadn't regained consciousness. As much as he wanted to see her open those eyes, bearing the brunt of her anger wasn't all bed and roses.The end tone had him raising his face to the ceiling. God, he felt like a betrayer,
