VANESSA’S POV

I knew something was wrong the moment I walked into the boardroom. All attention was on me with disgust in their eyes.

The board members sat stiffly around the long glass table, an unreadable expression on their faces. Their assistants stood near the walls, avoiding eye contact.

And Cade… Cade stood at the head of the table. Always uptight, he stood rigidly with an unreadable expression on his face. He didn't look at me when I entered and it scared me.

“Good morning,” I said light

  • His to Preserve   CHAPTER FORTY

    ISLA’S POVThe Thorne estate smelled exactly the way it always had as I walked through the large gates. It's been ages since I've been here and I'm not going to pretend that I didn't miss my work here, Sab and this bustling warm city. Working with Lucan felt like living a fake life in pretense. My heels clicked as I walked down the hallway, past the portraits hung on the wall…Well, I chose not to spare them a glance today. Seeing that my office had already been cleaned, I settled on my seat immediately getting to work. Letters, photographs, the estate’s private collection; all need my help, and not to brag, no one does it better than me. I'd chosen to wear something nice for my “return” back to the Thorne estate…something professional yet simple. I'm yet to see Cade, after that wonderful night at his mansion. He had called that a driver would come pick me up to work, but I was already close to the estate.I set my bag on the desk, pulled out my laptop, and started sorting the first

    ISLA’S POVHe shoved his sweatpants down just enough to free his thick, hard, veiny cock. Cade gripped my hips and yanked me to the edge of the cold kitchen island thrusting deep in one brutal stroke.I screamed his name, gripping his hair and arching my back. He fucked me on the counter like he was trying to break it. His pace was hard, fast, relentless. Each thrust took the breath from my lungs. My breasts bounced with the force; he swiftly caught one in his mouth and sucked hard, flicking the nipples between his lips while he pounded into me.“Look at you,” he growled between thrusts. “This ass” He slapped it again once, twice, the sound echoing. “It’s fucking fuller, rounder, and Perfect.”I moaned loudly, head falling back while my eyes rolled to the back of my head. This feeling feels so good. “Goshhhhh… Cade,pleaseee; don't you fucking stop, keep pounding this pussy” I moaned, not sure of the words coming out of my mouth.“And these,” He said, cupping my breasts, using his thu

    ISLA’S POVThe room smelt very familiar. It was a scent that I was used to but while my nose worked, my eyes felt too heavy to open. Sandalwood…that’s the scent, sandalwood. I let myself drown in it, feeling its goodness. The bed and pillows felt different as well, softer and silky on my skin. I managed to open my eyes and looked around the room. Where’s this? How did I get here? I stood up and noticed it was Cade’s mansion in the States. No way I slept all the way from London here…that would be some embarrassing shit.I quickly brushed my teeth and took a shower using Cade’s shower gel and moisturizer. I definitely smell like him now. I searched for something decent to wear because I couldn’t find my clothes…I guess they’re in the washroom.I raced down in a white T-shirt, tied my hair in a messy bun and followed the scent of breakfast to the kitchen. Oh my goodness, his kitchen is huge. He stood shirtless and barefooted, wearing a black sweatpants that hung dangerously low on his

    ELEANOR’S POVI was having tea in my apartment when the news of Luke’s arrest was announced on the TV. I froze as the teacup I was holding slipped from my hands and spilled on the rug.“No,” I whispered. We've come too far for this to be happening. “Sources confirm Lucan Thorne has been detained in London, alongside several board members…” The reporter said with clips of Lucan walking in handcuffs. I sank into my chair breathing really hard and fast. Sweat formed on my head and trickled down my spine. They took him away from me once, I am not going to let them do it again. “They destroyed my son,” I continued, shaking and clutching my chest because I was finding it hard to breathe.“So I will destroy Cade” I reassuringly said to myself. I quickly called Derrick my hitman. “It's time Derrick…pick the girl” I said, letting the tears stream down my cheeks.ISLA’S POVTonight felt extra cold as I walked down the street to my house. I pulled my coat tighter as I casually strolled down

    CADE’S POVI stood in my office staring at the city through the large glass window, my hands clenched and unclenched on my desk. Proving my innocence and clearing my name was fucking good. I've gained back the trust of some of the board members and a good number re-invested while the others promised to get back. But that wasn’t the only thing on my mind. Lucan still needs to be caught with concrete evidence that could hold in court. I was so deep in thought and lost in my world that I didn’t hear my phone ring. It vibrated again and I quickly picked it, hoping it was a special someone…“Marcus… talk to me” I said immediately, no time for pleasantries. Marcus is the inside man I placed in London, to report Lucan’s activities back to me. He keeps me updated and now I hope he’s got some good news. “Lucan made his move.” He said, making my heart speed up expectantly.“What move?” I asked. “There was an emergency board meeting. You weren’t informed? He asked shockingly, I tried racking m

Traffic was…”“Sit,” Cade said.“Rude much” I muttered. “What was that?” he asked, visibly angry.“Nothing” I replied, then slowly took the empty chair beside him.“What’s this about?” I asked softly, but no one answered. Instead they started muttering to themselves. Cade picked up a remote from the table, then he spoke softly.“Before we begin,” he said calmly, “there’s something everyone here deserves to see.” He clicked and suddenly the screen before h
