I stared at the almost-empty crystal decanter, pondering whether or not I should refill it. I wasn't sure how many glasses of whiskey I had drunk. It must have been around ten-ish. I wasn't drunk. My overly-working brain was hell-bent on keeping me sober no matter how much alcohol I consumed. Fucking perfect. Tonight, of all the nights, I wanted to drink and forget about everything. But I couldn't.

I closed my eyes, and the image of Sarah appeared. I wanted to hold her so fucking badly. How the

Sarah is another idiot. I thought she felt danger next to that neighbour which I suspect is a plant and also was the one who leaked the news about her kid. Her bodyguards died and she still go out on a date. She ahould die too.

These people are so stupid. The only that will solve it is that dancing doll or whatever that BAM left her if they give it to right people and not the cops that gad handled their cases before. That ahould be what they will try and figure it out.

  • From One Night to Love   Epilogue – Loving Her

    ALEX Four and a half years later I opened my eyes to see Sarah's gorgeous sleeping face, and my lips instantly stretched into a wide smile. God, I would never have enough of watching her sleep. There were only two other faces I loved more: her face when she smiled and the blushing face that appeared shortly after she reached her climax. Actually, I would gladly work to see that blushing face right now, but I couldn't risk being late today. This day was going to be perfect. I dipped my head to brush my lips against hers. I did it carefully so as not to wake her up. Then I slid out of bed and quietly walked out of our bedroom. Of course, it was way easier to sneak out of our room than to pass Liam's bedroom, and passing the twins' bedroom without them waking up or noticing was nearly mission impossible. Fortunately, none of them decided to wake up at six in the morning on Saturday, and two minutes later, I successfully entered the kitchen. Usually, this place belonged to Sarah. It wa

  • From One Night to Love   The Rest Of Our Lives

    I vaguely recalled what had happened in the last few hours. I remember Jun calling my name as he all but tore me away from Alex, taking over the reanimation until the paramedics appeared. Then the words “temporary stable” rang in my head as they transported Alex to the hospital in Nassau. I refused to leave his side. I held his hand almost until he had been taken to the operating room. Philip and Jun dragged me away so that doctors could patch me, even though I said I didn't need it. They insisted, and Jun might have even said something about knocking me out if I'd refused. The doctors asked me if I needed painkillers. When I said I wasn't sure, they asked me if I needed something to soothe my nerves. I took neither. I didn't want anything that could dull my senses as I waited for Alex's operation to be over. The surgeon said that the bullet vaguely missed the heart but also that removing it would be complicated. Still, there was a chance. There was hope that he would survive. He had

  • From One Night to Love   Don't Die

    I heard two gunshots, yet there was no pain. Well, there was no new kind of pain, and I could feel the heart pounding in my chest… But dead people shouldn't have a heartbeat, should they? My mind was struggling to process what was happening. My eyes snapped open just in time to see two guards fall to the ground, exposing the one who stood on the threshold. Alex.My breath caught in my throat as our eyes met, but my relief lasted less than a second. In my peripheral vision, I saw Lucius reaching for his gun and shifting his stance to shoot. “No!” I screamed for a split second before he aimed his gun at Alex and pulled the trigger.Alex leaped into the corridor and hid behind the door. “Sarah, get down!” he thundered, and that was what I did. I jumped to the side before Lucius could grab me and use me as a shield, and I dove behind the bed, lying face-down on the floor. Lucius roared like a wild animal, and more shots came. “I'll kill you, Ravenford!” he bellowed.I flinched every time

  • From One Night to Love   Surviving

    SARAHThree days passed since I had woken up in my luxurious prison. My ribs still hurt, but at least I could move on my own… more or less. The bruises I found all over my body were slowly fading. The worst were those on my shoulder, which, according to Lucius, had been dislocated. Once the mass of sedatives and painkillers left my system, the pain had become almost unbearable, but now I learned to function despite it.Lucius had been showing up in my room at least three times a day. Each time, he brought me food or snacks. It might have been his twisted definition of caring about me. Never had he raised his voice on me, but I knew better than to trust his fragile kindness. The cold glow in his eyes remained, and the smiles he had often given me betrayed cruelty. I couldn't let my guard down around him. I had to put on my best act, even though his slightest touch filled me with sheer disgust. It terrified me that he became more daring. He enjoyed tracing every bruise on my neck and sh

  • From One Night to Love   Sleepless

    ALEXI was sitting in my office and trying to focus my eyes on the screen. My current struggle had nothing to do with Ravenford Corporation. I was tracing the old metro plans, hoping to find that one place we had missed.“You shouldn't stay here all night again.” Grayson sighed before grabbing a chair and sitting in front of my desk. “Staring at those plans won't bring her back.”“She is not dead, Grayson,” I hissed.“You don't know that,” he argued but raised his hands in surrender as soon as he met my glare.“I know that because we haven't found her body.” Anger raised the volume of my voice, but that only made Grayson look at me with more pity.“If you're convinced that she's not dead, then why not call off the search inside the tunnels?” His brows rose. “It has been more than a week now. Even if she survived the fall, she must have been injured and lying there alone—”“Shut. The fuck. Up.” The knuckles in my fisted hands bleached.“I don't want to see you torture yourself,” he sai

  • From One Night to Love   Possession

    SARAHI heard myself drawing a breath into my lungs. It was a wheezing sound, and the movement of my chest came with a great deal of pain. Then I heard something else—voices. I couldn't understand what they were saying… It was… Chinese?The realization triggered an alarm that spread throughout my aching body. Fear clung around me tightly, forming a thick, almost material cover, nearly as real as the sheets on my body. Then I heard one voice I recognized. The sound doubled the terror consuming me. Lucius. He and someone else were arguing about… something. Their voices were raised, their edges sharp, their tones cold…I opened my eyes and blinked, trying to adjust my sight, but it remained blurry no matter how hard I tried to focus. I struggled for another few seconds before I could see more clearly. Wherever I was, it looked like an enormous bedroom. The bed I was lying in was double the size I had in my penthouse. A huge window was several feet to the left of the bed, and the palm tre

  • From One Night to Love   Restless Parent

    My heart kept pounding through the rest of the day. I couldn't believe I said it aloud. I admitted that I was in love with Alex. In love! I had never even admitted it in front of myself, and suddenly I was able to say it in front of someone whom I'd met only two days earlier. Even Joy hadn't heard m

    SARAHAs my job at the museum almost came to an end, I spent most of each day in my apartment, which was currently a nearly completely empty apartment. While waiting for the new furniture set to arrive, I sat on the floor with my laptop and tried to learn as much as I could about the Duncans.After my

    Joy stared at me with the widest eyes she could muster. “So, let me make this clear... There's a hot guy just behind that wall, and he rather openly flirts with you, completely ignoring the fact that you have a boyfriend?” I gave her a wry smile, and she sighed. “I definitely need more alcohol to di

    ALEXMoving hurt. Breathing hurt. At first, I was swallowing painkillers like candy, but I quickly realized that with my pain gone, so was my concentration. I had to be focused. I had to keep my head in the game and act cautiously.My ribs were still broken, muscles still strained, and bruises still v
