LOGINCrystal’s POVFortunately, Kieran was able to free himself and then came for me. At first, I thought maybe he would leave and abandon me, but I was wrong.Instead, he fought Crusher and I had the chance to deal with Ria after all the yapping she has been spitting in my face.At first, she was stunned when she saw him. It was more like she was excited to see him which made everything so weird.“Kieran! You’re here!” She yelled, pretending to drop on the floor. “I’m so glad you’re here…I’ve been waiting for you. I knew you would come save us.”“Why are you here Ria?” He demanded.“I was taken as a hostage by him!” She cried out loud, pointing to Crusher. “She was so scared when she was brought here, I had to calm her down before you showed up.”&l
Crystal’s POV“Where is Olivia!” I yelled, spitting on Crusher’s face as Ria shot me a disgusting look.She was so eager to utter the answer but reconsidered when her gaze met mine.Certainly, if he hadn't shown up, she would have spilled where Olivia was being held captive without even batting an eye because clearly, she isn’t concerned about her.She wants me, not her. And that’s the difference between her and Crusher. Even though he was trying so hard to hide that they didn’t share similar interests, it wasn’t working.Their relationship dynamic seems so off and weird even from the perspective of a captive.“That’s none of your business, pretty.” He said, caressing my face with his index finger. “Your skin is so soft, Lyra.”“Get your finger off my face!&
Crystal’s POVThe last thing I could remember before everything went black was that there was a great uproar on the cruise right as we all watched a force hit us.Crusher was excited and the last facial expression I remember him having was smirking and rolling his eyes while he watched us try to stop whatever was happening.“Where are we?” I asked as I tried to touch my face. That was when I realized that my feet and hands were both tied.It was basically impossible to escape from here without having your limbs free.I looked over to my side and that was when I saw a face that looked familiar.I was right, this was one of the survivors that Crusher and his men had captured and refused to let go even after he got Olivia’s custody.She wasn’t bound like me for some reason. Instead, she walked freely and grabbed a
Crystal’s POVWithin a blink of an eye, I got dragged away by an unseen force.All I could remember was trying so hard to release my hands but I couldn’t. The grip was so firm, I could barely yank my hands off.“Let go of me!” I yelled as Kieran watched me being dragged away. He tried pursuing us but he was stopped by Crusher with a bright smile on his face.“You want your girl?” He teased, smirking like an asshole.“Don’t you dare hurt her.” Kieran snapped.“What are you waiting for, lover boy? Go get her.” Crusher further teased.“What do you want?” Sir Phillipe interrupted. “Why are you here of all places?”“I should be asking you all that question.” He fired right back at him. “You should be grateful I&r
Crystal’s POVHonestly, I wish Olivia wasn’t taken and nothing went wrong during this trip.It was going smoothly before Crusher disrupted the peace and orderliness that was in existence.Chaos always had a way of changing an environment that basked in peace and solace into a total disaster.He didn’t just cause chaos, but he also took Olivia along, practically abducting her all because of his obsession.It was quite obvious he was obsessed with her. Everything he did centered and revolved around her, he knew holding the hostage would catch her attention and used them as his bait to abduct her successfully.Kieran and his men were quite wrong about him. Killing Olivia would make his plan sloppy and go get away, he’d need to be discreet with his movements to avoid being tracked.“What’s wrong?” I hea
Crystal’s POVThis definitely has to be a joke.Or maybe Kieran and his men are trying to play a prank on me. It was quite obvious Sir Philippe hasn’t quite gotten over my last joke at the meeting we had last week.The office was quiet and needed a little bit of drama. Unfortunately for me, I took it upon myself to stir a reaction from some of my staff. Some took it lightly and played along, while the others weren’t quite on board with the joke.The joke was betting on who was the office clown and most of the people chose him for some reason. He happened to be around that day because he’s hardly at the office. His excuses are always about how he has to stay with his family and sort out some errands. Totally understandable.“No, that isn’t possible. Are you joking with me?” I demanded. It was getting awkward and I could feel the tension building u
Kieran POVWe couldn’t finish all of it, so we left it for the guards to take it back home for their use. crystal wore a suspicious look on her face, still thinking about what happened inside the cafe.“You think so much about the past. Don’t hold that in your mind because it has no value; you’d be
Crystal POV “This line holds the water supply to the pack, but I’ve heard that there’s a pack trying to dig up gold, and in that case, it could contaminate our water supply and leave the pack on the verge of a pandemic.” His father showed the parcel of land on the map, which was the problem of the
Crystal's POV"And by the way, it's Kieran. No need to be so formal now." He adds with a teasing wink.I want to die. My face is a ball of flames. I swallow hard, my heart pounding so violently against my ribcage I'm afraid it might burst out.Am I perhaps ovulating? Or why the hell is my body rea
Crystal's POVOh. My. Goddess.The world just fucking stops spinning. Time stops. My breath stops.I blink. Then blink again, but he's still right there on the seat, looking no less god-like than he did that night, with one exception—now he looks a whole lot scarier.There's this scowl on his sexy
