ログインDespite her age, twenty-two year old Katherine Cooper had faced a lot of brutal ordeals in her young life. After the loss of both parents in a ghastly car accident, she was orphaned and left all alone at the tender age of ten. Katie isn't the only one with past tragedies. Years later, on coming to work in a multi trillion dollar firm in California, she meets Nicholas Smith - a ceo billionaire who conceals his identity from the employees of the firm by posing as a high level employee, and secret member of a mafian cult group called'Members of the round table'. The cold mysterious ceo only draws closer to Kate to satisfy his curiosity about her, and because he finds her amusing but she falls in love with him at this moment. What started out as a fun game to Nick, eventually turns against his favour as he ends up falling in love with Katherine. After a change of heart, when Nick attempts to leave the group as opposed to it's rules, his life is endangered as the rest of the members of the group begin to hunt him down. Katie ends up caught in the middle of this bloody feud due to her position in his life. Nicholas had been condemned to the same fate meted out to those who tried to leave the table. Death. Will Katie have to pay a dear price for her love? Or will Nick be able to escape the members of the round table after being served- giving he and Katie the happily ever after they desire.
もっと見るThis time, Katie cried out in fear. Nick swiftly caught her to himself. She buried her face in the crook of his neck. “It's alright, Katie. It's going to be alright.” He tenderly whispered. He held her tightly to himself as she sobbed softly. “Just don't move. Remain as still as possible.”Katherine bit down so hard on her lower lip She was certain if she didn't let go she would taste blood. In her mind, she could already see a mental picture of the horrible ways many of the victims of these monsters had died. Most of them being from all the horror movies she liked to watch. Was she going to die in such a gory manner as well, now? Through her state of panic, she felt Nick's hand soothingly running up and down her back, and she relaxed a little. She found herself nestling further into him, her face well hidden in the crook of his neck, his body temperature so warm and inviting to her skin when compared to the coolness of the water surrounding them. Instead of the doom looming roun
In no time they had all their swim gear on and were ready to dive. Katie had seen how beautiful the waters of Conrad Island from above. Now she got to see them from beneath. It was a wonderful warm day. The water shone a lovely turquoise-jade green color. “You ready?” Nick asked, and she nodded. She'd been hesitant to go snorkeling in the beginning, so why was she so excited now?“Let's stay close to each other just in case, okay?” He added, and then he put on his snorkel. Katherine dove in first, and then a second splash from above told her Nick was in too. They'd been submerged for less than an hour, and it was already a daydream. From colorful tropical fish, to seahorses, sea turtles and beautiful coral, there was much to see in the waters of Conrad Island. This underwater adventure was the most wonderful thing she done in all her life!Katie knew that these moments with Nick would be branded in the warmest part of her memory. The experience was sublime!It came as a mild surpri
Katie's nightmare started like this. She was bolting full force across a deserted little road, in the midst of a violent storm. It was the middle of the night. A furious gale ripped at every tree and bush in sight. The pace at which she fled mirrored the pounding of her own heart in her rib cage. She was terrified of something…someone. Not far behind, a bearish growl of a voice cut through the storm. Menacing. Urgent. Advancing swiftly. “Don't let her escape!” It yelled. Her lips were quivering, and it had nothing to do with the ice-cold water drenching her from head to toe. Katherine dashed around a street corner and faltered. She'd run into a dead-end courtyard full of shops. “Looks like you've got nowhere else to run eh, bitch?’’ The monsterous voice called out suddenly. No time to backup! The dread that sliced through her was enough to drive her already tasked heart to cardiac arrest. Instead her body froze, and for a moment every other sound- but the rain pelting down
All of a sudden, the water seemed to turn to ice! No wonder! She thought she'd felt that uncanny uneasiness one is apt to feel when being surreptitiously watched.“My goodness, Nick, you nearly gave me a heart attack!’’ Katie snapped in a panic, failing in a desperate attempt to reach for her robe, or at least cover herself.A part of her consciousness chided her for being so silly. After all, she wasn't naked. She was putting on a ‘very appropriate’ two piece bathing suit. “And nothing more!” A naughty voice chipped in, flawing her newly built armor of confidence before it was even fully on.Katie gasped in a quick breath, forcing herself to relax, yet she still shyly dunked upper body into the water so only from her shoulders upward were left exposed. If only she'd seen the amused look on Nick's face at her little panicky display of shyness.Unknown to her, he'd seen it all already.At first he was a little surprised when he sighted Katie coming over to the pool. He'd been right t
