KARMA SERVED HOT Chapter 29 - A sealed envelope
Lianne Smith (Elara Vale)A distant, sharp sound of a gunshot echoed from within the house. Immediately it was drowned out by the perimeter alarm, which pulsed a glaring red light in the room we are in.Ethan didn't hesitate, he shoved me behind his back in one fluid movement while drawing a dark silenced gun from his side. His broad frame shielded me from the door as he stepped towards the door interface, opening it a bit."Stay behind me," he commanded, his voice dropping into a terrifyingly cold and calm one. My lips were still burning from his kiss, my heart hammering against my ribs. The contract is null and void. His words rang in my head.Outside, the heavy footsteps of guards moving swiftly down the corridor is heard. Nicole appeared at the door threshold, in his hand was a smoking sidearm."Secure the perimeter!" Nicole shouted out to the moving guards in-between heavy breaths, “Reporting a false breach in the west perimeter sir. A surveillance drone was flown into the floor
KARMA SERVED HOT Chapter 28 - First kiss
Lianne Smith (Elara Vale)Ethan leaned down until his lips were hovering mere millimeters from mine."He asked me to save his daughter from the trap he couldn't protect her from... no matter what method I use, no matter how much it costs, and no matter how much she could hate me for doing it."I looked at the watch, my father's watch, I turned it over. Even though the glass was broken the initials of his name at the back is unmistakable. My mind spun as I tried to connect how my dad who used to tuck me into bed every night regardless of his busy schedule and Ethan, a corporate titan standing before me now could have met and come to this type of decision. "My father …." I said in between sobs “He loved me, he would never have asked a stranger to turn my entire existence into a planned affair!” I pressed my palm against his chest to create space between us."Your father did that to protect you, he knew Adrian was going to use you and he came to me so that it could be prevented!”"So y

Lianne Smith (Elara Vale)I swirled around with a start, clutching my robe tight, my body trembled with a mixture of gratefulness, rage and terror."You knew about the crash," I choked out, my voice cracking. "Adrian didn't just try to kill me... you let him do it! You aided him!"Ethan took one slow, deliberate step into the room, the heavy steel door sliding shut behind him, locking us in together."I had to do something, Lianne," Ethan whispered, his dark eyes burning into mine with an absolute, terrifying obsession. "If I had interfered he could have done something worse to you. I paid him to”I paid him to.The three words hung in the cold air of the room like a heavy sword that is about to execute someone.I moved back against the wall of photographs wishing to merge with it, just to know if all this is just a terrible dream. But the cold surface of the folder containing all history about me pressed against my chest, a reminder that this is real. It is happening. I stared at Et
KARMA SERVED HOT Chapter 26 - Shocking discovery.
Lianne Smith (Elara Vale “I'll be back soon wifey” Ethan faced me and said. I nodded. “Stay safe" I said, my voice a low whisper that only me can hear. He turned and went out with Nicole towards the elevator. The private elevator chimed twice before plunging into the concrete abyss of the tower. Ethan’s emergency departure had been swift, executed with the quiet, militaristic precision that governed his entire life. I stood in the center of the grand living room, my cashmere robe wrapped tight around my waist, watching the rain streak down the floor-to-ceiling glass. Then my eyes caught the polished dark wood of the table near the foyer. Resting right beside his half-empty glass of water was a matte-black passcard, carved with a subtle, silver-crested seal. The master keycard for the mansion's restricted access points. In his rush to handle this important matter at God knows where, Ethan, the man who calculated every single move, had made a mistake. He had left the acc
KARMA SERVED HOT Chapter 25 - The trap is set
Lianne Smith (Elara Vale)By two o'clock that afternoon, the atmosphere inside the boardroom of Smith Enterprises was thick with tension. Not for me of course but for the couple duo, Adrian and Celeste. Other board members were also present, all quietly observing the situation.“So, I observed that despite the financial investment I made into this company” I began, pausing for a moment to allow them process the possible meaning behind my words.Then I continued, "it is still struggling with debts and is on the verge of being acquisited by rival companies”Across from me sat Adrian Cooper. His blonde hair slightly disheveled and his jaw shadowed with dark stubble. He looked like a man who hadn't slept in forty-eight hours. Beside him, Celeste sat with her arms crossed over her chest, her sea-blue eyes burning with suspicion and something resembling envy.Between us on the conference table lay the finalized debt restructuring agreement which was done by Vance Global's top attorney."Th
KARMA SERVED HOT Chapter 24 - The initial breach
Lianne Smith (Elara Vale)My eyes opened slowly, someone was touching my forehead lightly, Ethan.I sighed, closed my eyes, and succumbed into the arms of exhaustion.When I opened my eyes again, the room was quiet and the curtain was drawn, preventing the sun rays from entering. My body felt as if I have been run over by a truck, as if the midnight fever had burned away every layer of my skin, leaving behind only a numbing sensation of pain.My eyes roamed the room quickly, the wall clock shows that it is eight in the morning. Ethan was no longer in the room but his scent lingered, a fresh glass of water sat on the nightstand alongside a pain relief medication and beside them lay a folded note.I took the note and opened it. Written in Ethan's elegant handwriting was “Rest well. Marcus is outside the door if you need anything”I smiled, rest was a luxury I couldn't afford, not at this moment.His confession from last night kept echoing in my mind. I wondered if he really meant what h
