Laura and king are seated in the dining area having breakfast as he was already prepared to head out.

"What time would you like to go see Dr. Liam today?" King asked.

"I should have made an appointment with him. But once I'm done exercising and doing my yoga sessions I would go to the hospital to see him."'Laura replied.

She felt uncomfortable under his gaze.

"Would you like for me to come along with you?."

She turned to face him shaking her head "No not at all, it's just a check up." Laura politely declined.

"You sure you'd be okay all by yourself!"

"Yes sure. I will. I also plan on complaining about my weakness to him. Those drugs he gave are having weird effect on me." She reasoned, dropping her fork on her plate.

"I'll have to call him then. But don't worry, Once Andre stops me off at the office, he'd come back to pick you." King offered as he finished his food.

Checking the time on his watch, he realized he was running late for a board meeting. He quickly got up and wore his suit

    "Strip." Closing the door to his room and untangling himself from Laura, King instructed hoarsely. The room was dim but she could still see the burning desires in his eyes. Was he turning her into a sex maniac? He was fast becoming possessive of her body. Everything about the way he possessed her was sexy.It was a long day afterall, what better way than to end it with loads of orgasms."If you won't strip I'd be more than willing to help."King touched her shoulders with his palms and lets them coast slowly down her arms.His mouth lowered to the curve of her neck, where his lips grazed her skin.She leaned into him, arching against him reflexively.

    Laura had woken up high spirited the next day. Knowing that King never wore his emotions on his sleeves, at first she never gave the idea of meeting Allen much thought but seeing how zoned out he got most nights—after they’ve had the sex of their lives— she became worried as well. Her uncle Dave wasn’t very much in support of the idea. He had asked her to not bother herself so much for she might just ended up uncovering things she never would have wanted. He objected strongly “Lu, this isn’t wise. Everyone in the whole of New York knows Allen McGorrith. He was a nightmare to everyone around him. The guy was mentally sick on a whole new level. Trust me when I say he’s not someone you want to be around.”She had dismissed his concerns and tried to make him understand that it was only out of the care she had for King. Maybe— just maybe Allen would stop with the threats.It felt like she was walking around egg shells with King. He didn’t break a smile, neither did he have anything for

    The silence was deafening. Laura slowly turned to look at King for answers.“Or shall I rephrase it then? How does it feel knocking up your father’s long lost daughter?” Allen was enjoying the trouble he was causing.King didn’t believe a word his father had said. They were utter bullshit to me. There was no iota of truth in whatever came out from that man’s mouth. If he wanted to play games he could do it alone with King, he did not appreciate his dad bringing Laura into his fucked up head space.It was definitely time to leave.“Enough Allen. Like I said before, I don’t care whatever it is you have to say. Best believe this would be the last time we’ll be meeting. Unless of course I’m called to come identify your corpse.” Laura’s hands were gently slipping away from his, he held them firmly to himself be quickly turning to reassure her. “Don’t pay attention to him, don’t worry we are leaving already.” He whispered barely audible.She wanted to so badly believe that Allen was spewi

    “Hell no, there is no way in hell I’m canceling the party. It will still hold and that’s final.”King’s voice was as sharp and firm like a judge’s hammer slamming down in a courtroom. It didn't matter to him if he was sitting in a damned hospital bed with a fresh IV in his arm. It didn't matter to him if his body was still bruised, stitched up, and technically supposed to be on bed rest. None of that mattered to Kingston.Because whenever he had made up his mind, not even divine intervention could change it.Laura’s nails dug into her palms. “Are you serious right now?” Her voice trembled—not with fear, but with pure frustration at his stubbornness. “King, you were just in a goddamn helicopter crash! Your body isn’t made of steel, no matter how much you act like it is.”Brian exhaled loudly, running a hand down his face. “Let’s not forget the other reason we’re saying this, man. You were literally giving a second chance to live, but that's not all. It’s not just about your health. You

    Hospitals were supposed to be quiet and somber places for the sick ones—full of beeping machines, sterile walls, and nurses shushing loud visitors. But apparently, nobody told Brian and Tay that. Because the moment they walked in, the room went from the crime thriller atmosphere to circus act in literally 0.2 seconds after they got in.Brian who was always the loudest in the group, barged in first, throwing his arms up dramatically. “My guy! You survived a helicopter crash and didn’t even break a leg? Now that’s just selfish.”Tay followed in, shaking his head. “Swear down, bro. You have to start sharing some of that plot armor with the rest of us.”King who was still propped up in bed, his back raised higher than the rest of his body, smirked. “What can I say? I guess I'm God’s favorite.”Laura, who had just managed to stop panicking over the whole somebody trying to kill my man situation, shot them a glare. “Can y’all not?”But Brian was already in motion, snatching the pillow from

    King was built differently. And that was on period.It was a helicopter crash yet this man walked out of it looking like a battle-worn Greek god instead of someone who just had a near-death experience. Sure, his face was scratched up, his arm was dislocated, and the white bandage on his chest made him look like he belonged in a war movie, but was he lying on a hospital bed in misery? Nope. He was sitting upright, cracking jokes like he hadn’t just scared the life out of Laura.Laura, on the other hand, was a living mess. Hot tears streamed down her face like a flowing river, her perfectly done curls now falling apart as she held onto King’s hand like he would disappear if she let go. “You’re an idiot,” she sniffled, squeezing his fingers tighter.King, ever her annoying man, smirked. “I mean… yeah, but like, a hot one?” His voice was hoarse but still carried that signature cocky charm. “Damn, baby, I knew you loved me, but these tears? You tryna make me cry too?”Laura wiped her face

    It was a day to the party, the one King had planned so well with precision, the one meant to be his chessboard to catch snakes like Liam and Stacey. But instead of strategizing his moves, King found himself juggling calls and obligations like a circus clown. He was supposed to pick Laura up from the salon, where she was getting all dolled up, but as usual, life had other plans.He was in his office, leaning back in his chair, his tie slightly crooked. One of his hands was holding his phone, and the other tapping a slow rhythm of a song on his desk. Those fingers never stay put.Laura's angelic sweet voice filled his ear, teasing him about how she was being pampered like a princess because of him.“So, Mr. Kingston McGorrith, any chance of a sneak peek of the settings of the hall before the party?” Laura asked, her tone playful.King chuckled, his lips twitching into a smile. “Tempting offer, miss cotton. But I’d rather you see the full reveal when you’re ready to break hearts at the

    So not everyone wearing scrubs were saints. King has got to learn the hard way.He was leaning back against the cool black leather seat of his SUV, his long fingers tapping an impatient rhythm on the armrest. Outside, the city lights were all white and gold in his eyes even despite the tinted windows. Detective Marshal’s call had come earlier and the urgency in his voice had pulled him out of his office. Luckily, Chase was around in time to cover up for him while he would be away. “King,” Marshal had said in a tone that demanded attention. “I’ve got something for you. We need to meet as soon as possible.” Marshal had said. No greetings, no small talk. Typical of him.Now here he was, parked in a high-rise parking garage, his eyes darting to the rearview mirror as Marshal approached. The detective opened the passenger door and slid in with what seemed like a practiced ease. Marsha never rushed into anything unprepared, and tonight was no different.“Detective,” King greeted him with

    Dr. Liam leaned back against the cold wall tiles of his private shower, letting the steaming water cascade over his chiseled chest. The surgical mask lines were still showing on his face, and they reminded him of the exhausting C-section he had just completed. Liam was drained, physically and emotionally. Although he had saved a life today—two, actually. Same as yesterday and the day before—all he could think about was how much he hated these walls. Hospitals were sanctuaries for everyone else, but for him? It was more like a prison.He toweled off roughly, wrapping the plush white towel around his waist before stepping back into his office.And there she was.Stacey.Her red hair was pinned back into a messy bun, a shade too bright against her pale Texan skin. Her curvy body was poured into a black dress that hugged her thick thighs and ample chest like she had revenge to prove. She sat in his swivel chair like she owned the place, her legs crossed in a nonchalant way. Her cherry-re

    Laura leaned against the counter that had displays of hot pastries, shifting her pregnancy weight to ease the pressure on her back. Her hand absentmindedly rested on her growing belly as she glanced at Maddie, who was swirling a spoon through a cappuccino she had no intentions of drinking.“So…” Laura started, dragging on that word to hint she was about to ask something prohibited. “How's Dr. Liam these days? Still too busy diagnosing his reflection in the mirror to have your time?”Maddie froze mid-way through swirling her coffee, her playful grin flattening out for just a second before she replaced it with a dramatic eye roll. “Ugh, can we not? It’s way too early for this.”Laura raised an eyebrow, clearly unconvinced. “Too early, or too complicated? Madds, you know I’m going to ask eventually.”Maddie waved her hand dismissively, leaning on the counter. “He’s fine. You know, doing his doctor-y things and looking annoyingly good while doing them.” She giggled with dreamy eyes. “Noth

    He knew the rules: money talked, and everyone else? They just nodded. The world worked on bribes, and the underpaid prison guard standing at the dimly lit corridor, guarding the cell gates, wasn’t about to turn down his envelope of dollar bills.“Back again, Mr. Clean?” The guard’s grin was all teeth and bad intentions, his hand greedily slipping the envelope into his jacket pocket.Matthew smirked, shoving his hands into his jacket. “You’re not paid to ask questions, Moses. I’m not here to bake cookies.”Moses laughed like they were old friends sharing an inside joke. “Fair enough. He’s in the usual spot. Ten minutes.”“Fifteen,” Matthew corrected, already stepping into the dark corridor that smelled of sweat, cheap bleach, and desperation for inmates to escape.Prisons weren’t supposed to feel comfortable, but this one had a bite of an annoying feeling that made his skin crawl every time he visited. And yet, here he was. Again.Dr. Hakeem’s cell was tucked in the back of the buildin

    They say revenge is a dish best served cold, but Stephanie Pearson preferred hers steaming hot with a side dessert of sizzling chaos. And oh, she was starving.Stephanie’s crimson nails lightly scratched the silk fabric of her blouse as she stood in front of her floor-length mirror, her reflection staring back at her like an old friend with a knowing smirk. She wasn’t dressed for anything fancy—just a casual crop top and ripped jeans—but that didn’t matter. What mattered was the way her hand instinctively drifted to her stomach.“That foolish Laura,” she muttered, cocking her head to the side, her freckled nose wrinkling in displeasure. “Thinks she can have Kingston all to herself? Oh, honey. No can do.”Her reflection grinned back at her, she was the version of herself she had grown to love over the past few months. She couldn’t help but let out a soft chuckle—no, that chuckle was psychotic, if heard closely. “How does she even sleep at night?” Stephanie continued, her high-pitched v
