Emillia

After a week of me pestering my husband about my training,he finally gave in convinced I was healed enough.

Gregory guided me toward a pair of heavy, iron reinforced double doors at the far end of the basement corridor. He pressed his palm against a digital scanner. A soft beep echoed, followed by the heavy, mechanical click of the locks disengaging.

When the doors swung open, the scent of expensive leather was instantly replaced by the sharp, metallic tang of gun oil and cold steel. An

  • Dear Billionaire, I'm Back For Your Name   Chapter 20

    GregoryI didn't need to turn around to know who had just walked into the range. The heavy, uncoordinated footsteps and the obnoxious scent of expensive cologne gave him away instantly.Sebastian.My brother leaned against the doorframe, a half-empty glass of scotch in his hand despite it being barely nine in the morning. His eyes were bloodshot, his dark hair a messy fringe over his forehead, but a malicious, mocking smile was plastered across his face as he looked at Emillia holding the smoking firearm."Well, well, well," Sebastian drawled, his voice dripping with amusement. "I see they've decided to give you some of their toys. Tell me Emillia,on a scale of one to ten how well can you aim now?"Emillia didn't flinch. Instead, her posture stiffened, her eyes narrowing into slits as she turned her body toward him, the gun still held firmly in her hand. She raised the gun and aimed it directly at Sebastian."Careful, Sebastian," Lucious warned from the corner, his hand casually drif

    EmilliaThe morning sun had barely managed to pierce the heavy, gray clouds when Gregory woke me. He kissed my forehead before rolling out of bed with a few words I couldn't make out.I opened my eyes,blinking several times to adjust to the light.“I hate you.”He chuckles.” I know you don't mean that.”“You could have woken me up yesterday.” I whine as the image of me turning to my side when I was beneath him replayed in my head.“You were tired.”“I fell asleep during sex!” I shriek. “During a make out session.” He corrected.I groan and roll out of bed.Gregory didn't say a word as he placed a set of dark clothes on the bed. A black long-sleeved shirt and cargo pants.“Practice?” He hums in reply. “Get ready and meet me downstairs.”When we walked down to the estate’s private underground shooting range, Lucious was already there. He was standing near a stainless-steel counter, setting down several boxes of ammunition."Morning, Emillia," Lucious said, his voice light as always.

    EmilliaMy hands were shaking, my palms raw and smelling faintly of sulfur and gun oil. I had spent the last three hours in the basement with Lucious, taking apart that black pistol until my fingers moved automatically, memorizing the weight of the firing pin, the spring, the slide.I wanted control. I wanted the power to ensure that the next time someone shot at a car I was in, I wouldn't be the one waking up in a hospital bed.When I pushed open the door to our suite, the words I was about to say to Gregory died in my throat.The room was dimly lit. Gregory was leaning forward, his face dark and intense, while Francesca, the head housekeeper, was on her knees on the floor, her face wet with tears. The atmosphere in the room was so thick with tension that it had me suffocating.They both snapped their heads toward me the moment the hinges groaned and I stepped in.Francesca scrambled to her feet instantly, wiping her face with the back of her sleeve, her professional composure slamm

    Gregory I left Emillia in the armory after laying out guns he had to practice assembling. I walked down the quiet, dimly lit corridor toward the estate’s private study, my mind shifting away from my wife to Francesca. The door to the study opened before I could touch the handle. Lucious stepped out, holding a thin, single sheet of paper. His green eyes were completely stripped of their usual humor. "You found it," I stated, my tone flat. "It wasn't easy," Lucious replied, handing me the paper as we walked into the privacy of the room. "Francesca’s file has been systematically scrubbed within the Densmore system. Father kept her background completely off the books. But I managed to dig up her original employment medical records and the old syndicate ledger from thirty one years ago." I scanned the document, my eyes skipping past the standard blood work until they landed on a single handwritten note at the bottom, stamped by a private syndicate doctor who had been dead for a decad

A soft beep echoed, followed by the heavy, mechanical click of the locks disengaging.When the doors swung open, the scent of expensive leather was instantly replaced by the sharp, metallic tang of gun oil and cold steel. An armory.In the center of the room stood a long wooden table, entirely bare except for a…gun.“We're starting with shooting?”Gregory stepped away from me, walking around the table."If you want to live in my world, Emillia, you don't get to rely on weak punches," he said, picking up the weapon and laying his eyes unto mine with an intensity. "You need to understand how to use weapons. Every single one you can get your hand on. You need to be ready to pull the trigger without hesitation."I swa

    EmilliaI was awake but I kept my eyes closed for a few moments, letting my other senses map out the room. The air smelled of sterile antiseptic, expensive leather, and a faint hint of cedarwood.Gregory’s scent."I know you're awake, darling," a deep, gravelly voice murmured from the shadows near the foot of my bed.I forced my eyelids open. The room was dimly lit, the heavy curtains drawn tight against the morning sun. Gregory sat in an armchair, his long legs crossed at the ankles. "Where were you?" I rasped, my throat dry.Gregory stood up, his massive frame instantly dominating the small space. He walked to the bedside, pouring a glass of water from a glass pitcher and holding it to my lips. I drank greedily, the cool liquid soothing the fire in my throat."I had to settle a debt," he said softly, setting the glass down. His thumb caught a stray drop of water on my chin, his touch lingering against my skin. "How is your head?""Like someone ran a printing press over it," I mutte

    Emillia I don't know when I fell asleep but when I woke up Sebastin was starring down at me like I was his prey and he was ready to pounce and devour me. “What you are doing is rude,creepy and disturbing.”I inform him as I pushed the blanket off me. My eyes gaze to the window where light was slee

    Gregory We had signed the documents and now Emillia was mine. I took her hand and led her to our room.Her hand remained in mine as I closed the door behind us. I sat and pulled her in between my legs. She stood there,her long black hair falling around her shoulders,some of the strands covering h
