I Would Kill for you, Baby 29. Too Hard to Handle
Madison "You heard that, right?" I look at Zarah in confusion. "Heard what?" "What our boss said!" Zarah's eyes are sparkling, and it makes me smile. "Yes, I heard, but so what?" "So what? It's a big deal, Madison. The boss is talking about getting you a special present. And it's not even your birthday. I mean, what does that even mean 'special' present? Don't tell me it's your code word for penis," Zarah says thoughtfully. I roll my eyes at Zarah's comment. "No, Zarah. Don't be disgusting," I say, giggling. I am thinking about the same thing as Zarah. What did Victor mean by the special present? "And by the way, who was that hottie sitting with Victor?" Zarah asks. I scowl. Oh god, no, don't tell me Zarah is also crushing on my brother now. "That was my brother, Stanley." "Your brother was here!?" I hear Frida cry out as she passes us with a tray full of appetizers. I watch her as she quickly sets it on the bar for the customer, then strolls back to us. "Yes, he stopped by
I Would Kill for you, Baby 30. Somewhere Amazing
VictorGreat...now I have to plan a trip.I don't why I said that. The words slipped right out of my mouth when I saw her look pale and vulnerable. I told Stanley I was going to give Madison a present because I wanted to calm him down. Show him how much I care about her so he doesn't think I'm just playing around. Madison looks surprised at my sudden offer. "You don't have to do that," she says, her voice soft."I want to," I reply firmly. "You've been working hard, and you deserve a break. Let me take you somewhere nice for a few days."Madison looks down at her hands before meeting my gaze. "Okay," she says quietly, a small smile forming on her lips.I smile back. Maybe this trip will be a chance for us to get to know each other better and see where things go between us.And the best of all, I get to have her all to myself for two weeks straight."Where are we going?" Madison asks me. Her eyes are sparkling with interest."I haven't decided yet," I say. "But I promise it'll be some
I Would Kill for you, Baby 31. It's My Seat
Madison "Excuse me, ma'am, but I think you might be sitting in the wrong seat." I glance up at the flight attendant—a blonde lady with red-lipstick, strong rogue on her cheeks, and blonde hair put up in a neat bun. She is wearing high heels and a smile despite clearly thinking I'm sitting in the wrong seat. I smile right back at her. "No, this is definitely my seat." "Are you certain?" she asks. "Because this is a first-class seat reserved for Mr. Giovanni and his companion." Part of me wants to ask her why I couldn't be that companion. If she thinks I look cheap or something, but instead, I swallow back my bitterness. Going to Portugal will be a fun thing for me and Victor to do, and I won't let this flight attendant ruin this bubbly let's-go-see-places mood I'm in. I wet my lips and smile politely. "Yes, I'm that companion. This is my seat." The flight attendant crosses her arms and fixes me with an icy stare. Her voice is brimming with skepticism as she says, "Ma'am, I canno
I Would Kill for you, Baby 32. I wasn’t Jealous
MadisonAfter what feels like having spent half a lifetime on the plane, we are finally about to land. The flight attendant from earlier is collecting trash and looking so that every overhead bin is closed. When her eyes meet the ones belonging to Victor, I notice a rosy color spreads over her cheeks."Ah, Mr. Giovanni," she says. "I hope your time onboard has been pleasant. Are you headed to your summer house?"Wait. Summer house? What summer house? I had no idea Victor owned one of those in Portugal... And if he does, how come this lady knows about it? Shit. Don't tell me she is a former love interest or something. Have they slept together?Regardless of which, I glare at the bun-wearing woman, which Victor seems to find surprising. He lifts his eyebrows at me, gives me a weak smile, and then speaks to the flight attendant while keeping his eyes on me."You will have to excuse me, I can't say I remember who you are, but no, we aren't heading for my summer house. My girlfriend and I
I Would Kill for you, Baby 33. I am Watching
Victor"Five more minutes, please," Maddie groans as I try to wake her up in the morning.I chuckle and take the comforter off Maddie, revealing her tousled hair and sleepy eyes. "Wake up, sleepyhead. We are on vacation in a foreign country. Don't you want to see what's out there?"Madison groans again, pulling the pillow over her head. "But I'm still tired," she pleads, her voice muffled. I sit down on the edge of the bed and gently tug at the pillow. "Come on, Maddie. We have a whole day ahead of us. I want to show you some places. You don't want to miss out, do you?" She peeks out from under the pillow, her eyes still heavy with sleep. "But it's so cozy here," she says. I grin. I suppose it is my fault she is tired since I kept her up all night. "Alright. You get ten minutes while I go downstairs and talk to the butler."Madison mumbles something and goes back to sleep. Leaning down, I give her a gentle kiss on the cheek before heading out.I press the button in the dining room
I Would Kill for you, Baby 34. The Freezer
MadisonThe blissful days spent in Portugal with Victor were like a dream come true. Sunsets over the coastal hills, salty sea air, and days filled with love marked our stay in that breathtaking land. Part of me never wanted to leave that place.But unfortunately, everything good must come to an end. We had to fly back home yesterday, and reality has set its sharp claws into my skin today.Ugh, I can't believe I'm already working tomorrow.I'm horrified by the thought and lounging on the couch while feeling sorry for myself. Victor is already back at the restaurant. As the big boss, he can't be gone for too long. But at least he was nice enough to give me an extra day off since I haven't been feeling well.It's been a few weeks since my last period, and I've felt strange lately. I'm constantly tired, and my appetite is off. Plus, there have been other symptoms that make me think that I may be pregnant.My stomach feels bloated, my breasts are tender and swollen, and I've felt nauseous
I Would Kill for you, Baby 35. Can't Get Away
MadisonWhat kind of hell did I just walk into?"Maddie," Victor says, his voice as cool and calm as always. His eyes meet mine, searching for a reaction, but I'm still processing the shocking revelation.I try to gather my thoughts, my mind racing with a mix of emotions. Gustaf, my ex-boyfriend, dead? And Victor, my current boyfriend, possibly involved in his death? It's a surreal and terrifying situation to find myself in."What... What happened?" I manage to stammer, my voice trembling.Victor takes a deep breath, choosing his words carefully. "I did this for you, Maddie. I wanted to protect you from Gustaf."My heart pounds in my chest as I struggle to comprehend the gravity of the situation. "But...how..." I ask, my voice barely above a whisper. My head is pounding, and words are not forming how I want them to.Victor's gaze softens, and he takes my hands in his, his rough hands are strangely warm and comforting. "Maddie, I need you to trust me. I never wanted you to be caught u
I Would Kill for you, Baby 36. Don't be Scared
MadisonThere are too many emotions within me to count. My head is spinning in circles, and I'm honestly so damn confused I don't even know how to feel.Can anyone blame me, though?My boyfriend is a murderer—a freaking mafia boss—who killed and kept my abusive ex-boyfriend in his freezer at the restaurant where I work. I'm pregnant with his baby, and here I am, about to share a bed with him.I don't know whether to laugh or cry about the situation. Victor terrifies me, but there is also this sick little part of my brain that finds him sexy."I'm going to take a shower," Victor announces while grabbing the hem of his t-shirt. "You can join me if you want, but if you rather stay here, that's fine too. Just don't try to run, Maddie. That won't end well."I sit down at the edge of the bed, arms crossed over my chest as I scowl up at his handsome face. He is very attractive, and at this moment, I hate him for it.Beautiful bastard.My face hardens. "Does Stanley know who and what you are?
