Devil's Bidding Chapter 119: Who was it?
“Arabella,” Lucas rasped, glancing down at her limp body sprawled across his chest, her head resting against him as he sped through the darkened highway. The dashboard lights flickered against her pale skin, her breathing shallow, uneven.“Hold on, please, doll,” he begged, his voice breaking as he pressed his hand against the wound on her arm, trying to stem the bleeding. “You’ll be taken care of, I swear it.”Blood seeped through his fingers. His hands were slick, trembling. Tears slid down his face, blurring his vision, but he didn’t dare take his foot off the gas.“I can’t lose you too,” he whispered, his throat tight with grief and fear.She had caught a bullet for him.For him.The thought tore through his mind again and again like shrapnel. He was almost loosing his mind. “Arabella, stay with me, okay?” he said hoarsely, glancing down. Her lashes fluttered weakly, and she nodded just enough for him to see. That tiny movement nearly broke him.He kept checking her at every tu
Devil's Bidding 118: A bullet for her lover
Lucas was running out of time.Every move he made now felt like tightening the noose around his own neck. His mansion in the city had become porous. Too many eyes, too many mouths loyal to someone else. Don Antonio’s men were everywhere He needed to get Arabella out.Far away from the city.Back to the manor, the only place still untouched by the corruption spreading through his empire.But he couldn’t move rashly.Not when every misstep could alert Antonio.So he began slowly. Moving the household staff back first under the guise of “restructuring.” Clearing out the mansion little by little until only a handful remained. He’d learned patience the hard way and now, he used it like a weapon.For weeks, Lucas had played a dangerous game, one that could destroy him if he wasn’t careful. Since he couldn’t fight the Society outright, he decided to dismantle it piece by piece. Quietly. Systematically.Don Antonio warned him. Called him reckless. Told him he was digging his own grave.But

Arabella “I found..…” I began, my voice shook a bit as I held the note between my fingers.“I’ve been waiting for your call,” came the calm, almost expectant reply on the other end.He was? My grip tightened around the phone. "You slipped this into my clothes that day. Why?" I asked him. “I thought you might need it.”“Why?” I demanded, my heartbeat quickening.“Maybe,” he said quietly, “you were meant to find it.”I frowned. “Who are you?”“Whoever you want me to be. I can be whatever you want me to become Arabella.”The answer sent a shiver down my spine.“How did you find me?” I pressed, my voice rising slightly.“An old friend,” he said.The back-and-forth felt senseless, like a riddle that refused to give meaning. I sighed, trying to steady myself.“This is ridiculous,” I muttered under my breath. “What do you want?”He chuckled softly, unhurried. “The note said, ‘If you ever needed someone to talk to.’ Didn’t it?”A lump formed in my throat. His tone was neither mocking nor k
Devil's Bidding 116: If you need help
Arabella She had come into his life and like a storm, changed everything again.Years ago and even now. Every plan he’d made, every vow he’d sworn to the man who’d made him what he was, had been blown to pieces, shattered like glass underfoot, as though they had never mattered at all.And now, she was waiting for him at home.The same girl.It was getting late, and he knew she would be there, probably standing outside the entrance the way she always did, waiting to greet him with that soft, foolish smile.He, who had once lived for the night. One of no preferred shadows, solitude, and silence now found himself moving through his days with an unfamiliar awareness.Someone was waiting for him.Expecting him.It was a strange feeling.To be waited on.To be wanted at the end of the day.Their relationship was messy. Complicated, complex, and undeniably toxic.Yet even then… she had changed something.He used to avoid his own homes, moving from one property to the next without attachmen
Devil's Bidding Chapter 115: The Beginning of his Obsession
Lucas had been little, but he still remembered the day he met Montague himself.He could vividly remember everything. The sterile white corridors, the faint smell of antiseptic, and the way the world seemed to go quiet when that man walked by.He had seen Arabella’s father speaking to the doctor, in hushed and low tones and even as a boy, Lucas could sense the tension.“Some lives are simply less significant than others,” the man said.Lucas hadn’t understood it at the time. He had only stood there a thin, wide-eyed boy staring at the imposing man in the tailored suit who turned and fixed his cold gaze on him.And then Montague said it again.Right to his face.“Some people are less important than others.”Lucas hadn’t known that they were talking about his sister’s life, the life that was already being weighed, measured, and traded. But he remembered the chill that ran down his spine. He remembered the way Montague’s eyes lingered on him, as if the man already knew what he was about
Devil's Bidding Chapter 114: A piece of Cake
Hours EarlierThe sky was a dull, muted gray, the kind of color that pressed on your chest and made breathing feel heavier. The color that reflected Lucas's dark mood and emotion. Lucas stood in front of Ariel’s grave, the cold wind tugging at his coat, damp earth clinging to his shoes.Today was supposed to be their birthday.He stared at the carved name in silence, his expression unreadable but his hands trembling slightly at his sides. Just when he thought he’d begun to move on, this day always pulled him back, back to square one. Back to the ache that never truly dulled.This cursed day.The day that had spelled doom for them.The day that had brought her, Arabella, into their lives.And it had all begun with something so simple.A piece of birthday cake.A gesture of kindness that should have meant nothing… and yet, it had changed everything.Lucas exhaled sharply, lowering his head as memories came unbidden.Ariel had been so radiant that day despite the bandages and the cast
