Adonis stood under the shower, allowing the warmth of the water to run down his entire body from his head. He closed his eyes, immersing himself deeper into his thoughts.It's been days now, and he still hadn't gotten the perfect plan on how to get Delaney without getting her offended or angry at him. It's a card he needed to play with caution. He didn't want to lose her again.He was ruthless in his ways; he was cold and unfeeling. He could just abduct her and take her to a place no one would ever find her, and even the authorities wouldn't dare interfere. He could also easily get rid of Blaine, but that would only hurt Delaney. He needed a perfect plan for this.Adonis hasn't been able to look at Blaine the same way he had before. After discovering he was the so-called fiance of his dream woman, he'd grown such a dangerous hatred towards Blaine that he could kill him without blinking an eye. And to think that Delaney has been going through hell at the hands of the imbecile only enra
"I am not going to hand-feed you. Stand up and get your plate!" Greta's nagging voice filled the room."What are you talking about, Mom?" Didn't you tell me a few days ago that you already had a plan?" Laura retorted, already getting weary of her mother's constant nagging. "My plan didn't go as planned, but you also have to try on your own part," Greta spewed angrily, disgust written all over her face, as she grabbed the glass of whiskey beside her."Mum, I'm just 23, and marriage is the last thing on my mind at the moment. Why don't you make Delaney marry him instead? I am sure she wouldn't mind," Laura responded with an eye roll."Shut your trap! I never want to hear that from you again! How dare you mention that filthy tramp to my ears? Have you gone nuts?" Greta fumed; her anger and hatred toward Delaney were evident in her eyes."What would you have me do, Mom? Huh?""You are a beautiful damsel. Just find a way already. Work something out. Your sister, Velda, did it, and now she
"Delaney Duncan..." The calm voice recited the name for the fourth time, running his fingers around the edges of the file containing her credentials which sat on his exotic executive table at his mercy. How interesting.It was another typical 'office' day for him as he busied himself with his schedules for the day. But when he encountered a worthy distraction, he quickly paused to pay attention to it.He smiled at the file he held in hand, satisfaction easing through him. He hadn't lost her totally after all. In fact, he would see her more often than she'd ever imagined because she would get the job she'd applied for on a platter of gold.A wide smile played across his face one more time as he picked up the intercom. "Send an email to Delaney Duncan. She's the most qualified for the job. I'd like to have her interviewed personally. Schedule a meeting immediately." His monotone voice instructed his secretary before dropping the call without waiting for a response.'So, we meet again af
The morning sun cast a radiant glow in the small kitchen where Delaney hurriedly prepared breakfast for Blaine.Today felt different, unlike every other morning. There was a shift in the atmosphere, and it stemmed from Blaine's recent change in behavior. He had been kinder to her in the past two days. He's been happier, always talking about work and some promotions he'd been promised, and Delaney was delighted... At least, so she thought.The recent turn of events left her puzzled. Adonis possessed more than enough evidence to condemn Blaine to a lifetime behind bars, yet he seemed to be treating him well, promising promotions and a salary increase. It simply didn't make sense. "Murphy's law... If your attack is going too well, it means you've walked into an ambush.""What is he up to?" Delaney pondered, arranging the table for breakfast."Hey, babe," Blaine called out, approaching her. "Something smells amazing," he teased, eagerly settling into his seat, ready to devour the meal."O
Delaney sat on the couch in the living room, feeling restless and scared. She thought of a thousand things that could go wrong with this decision she had just made. There was no faking it; she was scared of the unknown.Delaney had mastered the art of pretense, putting on a façade of confidence and boldness in public. But this situation was beyond her control. She couldn't simply fake her way out of it. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't shake off the nagging thought that Adonis was a stranger to her. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't help but think he might harm her or do something bad to her.Adonis was a man of few words. Despite his fame and accomplishments, he remained an enigma to those around him. His mysterious nature added to the air of uncertainty surrounding him."Oh, God, how did I end up here?" Delaney whimpered, feeling overwhelmed by the weight of her decision.She remained dressed in her flowery flair gown from earlier, not in the mood for fashion or a

Her eyes welled up as she ran towards the door, trying to unlock it, but it was all futile. The door only opens when Adonis wants it to. "Let me out! I just want to leave, please," She pleaded, tears already streaming down her cheeks. She was scared of the man in front of her. He was different from the Adonis she knew. This man standing here had an expression and aura that suffocated her. He looked scary and unfeeling. She wondered about all the terrible things he could do to her. With long strides, he moved over to where she stood, shaking like a scared child, and grabbed her by her arm. "You think you can run away from me?" His deep blue eyes bore a grim expression. "Sooner than you think, I will make you all mine, Dela."He pulled her to the bed and flung her on it. "I won't harm you, Dela." His voice was low, laced with a hint of sincerity, but Delaney didn't care at that point. Without stress, he held her right hand firmly, cuffing it to the bedboard with the handcuffs he had
Delaney's tender body trembled under his muscular frame as he rocked her passionately. Her body danced in the sweet rhythm his chiseled frame produced. The moment of intense pleasure she felt brought back memories of the other night. She had missed this feeling. She had always wondered when she'd ever experience such a raw sensation after that night. Blaine had never given her as much as the tiniest satisfaction she'd ever desired. This was pure temptation, and she prayed for the strength to overcome it after this weekend.Delaney's moans filled the room as waves of ecstasy coarse through her entire body. She willingly gave in to the sins of the moment. 'Guilt can come later,' she thought. To Adonis, it was a dream come through. He never believed this day would finally come. A day he'd finally have the object of his earnest desires laying bare under his body again while he devoured her with every sense of hunger he'd harbored all these years. A day he'd make her feel the weight of
