Nora's POV

I heard heavy footsteps, It got closer and closer. I gathered the files in my arms and ran back to my desk. I pretended to be busy with the files when Jeremy rushed in like he was being chased by a dog. He asked if I had seen a photo lying around– he was definitely referring to Jake’s picture. I denied having seen it, he checked his desk and slid the picture into his pocket.

He left hurriedly and I just knew that I needed answers to my unheard questions. I picked up my phone to call Laurel’I needed to share this whole thing with my best friend but she was not picking up. It then dawned on me that it was noon already, a lot of staff were probably lined up at the cafe to get lunch.

My phone chimed. It was a text from Jeremy’s secretary– whose name I later heard to be, Evelyn. She sent an invitation for the welcome party of the newbies. It was a dinner party to be precise.

It read;

Dear Nora,

We cordially invite you to a joyful welcome dinner on Wednesday, August 1st at 7:00

    Jeremy’s POV‘BEVERLY HILLS.’ Rex was definitely the mastermind behind this.It was supposed to be my property but my father handed it over to Rex on the condition that he took responsibility for the failure of my first deal in Toronto which made me return to California.Rex had always had eyes on that property. Now that he had it, he abandoned it for years just to take my woman to that ragged place.I was so close to the address when I bumped into Rex’s car. Smoke oozed out of the engine but I couldn't care less. I just wanted to see Nora.I rushed to the backseat and she could barely breath. Her mouth was stuffed with a handkerchief, her hands tied and her pretty face battered.She was suffocating.I lifted her in my arms and laid her on the grass, untied her and brushed her hair behind her ears.“I'm here now.” I assured her. Tears formed in her eyes. Her fair skin was red. I couldn't take it.I pulled Rex out of his car and pounced on him. “How dare you do this to her?! How dare y

    Nora’s POVAn old man barged into the house, he was holding a shear, a pruner and some grass, I think. “Which one of you fuckers trampled on my vegetables?” Ohhh.. those were vegetables!He threw the vegetables at us but we dodged it. Rex let go off my neck already, due to the commotion the old man caused. I guess he was a gardener- he wore dirty gloves, a sunhat and dirty boots that had mud stains.“Who the fuck are you? This land belongs to me. Get your old ass outta here.” Rex growled.I was going to run but Rex grabbed my arm tightly.“I see you are the big guy who stinks of money that they say bought this land. This land belongs to me, I farm here. My farm is just at the back of this building. You can’t just take away my source of income.” The old man wailed, his voice softened like he was appealing. “Old geezer, get outta here before I do something that you do not like.” He clenched his jaws and dug his nails into my skin– he was taking out his frustration on me.“Don’t do thi

    Nora's POVI kept thinking of Jeremy's confession in the taxi. “Did he really mean it? Or he just said it to manipulate me??” “This is your location, Miss.” The taxi driver said, snapping me out of my thoughts. I alighted from the taxi, I looked around and noticed that the taxi that I boarded was the only taxi that drove on the road. No single soul was seen around.I walked down the road as directed by the anonymous texter. I walked slowly, past a lot of tall trees. Every step on the dry gravel sounded too loud in silence. I could hear the cool breeze whisper its sweet melodies to me. The place was eerily quiet, I began to rethink my decision of coming to a place nobody knew about. The sweet melodies of the cool breeze began to sound like noise in my ears. Goosebumps grew on my skin as I drew closer to the house that looked like an abandoned building. It looked like something out of a forgotten memory, the windows were broken and the porch looked sagged, like the building was fight

  • MY MAFIA STEPBROTHER WANTS ME   Chapter 10

    Jeremy’s POVI could see her lips and hands trembling, she took to her heels when I turned to look at her. I have been such a disappointment tonight. I ran after her to explain things to her but she shut the door against my face. Even though we got the goods, we had to deliver it before the seventy two hours would be over. “We should go.” Denver whispered.“I love you!” I know I should not have said that, but it felt like the right moment, I just blurted it. She stayed silent. I didn’t regret that I said it. I walked away from the door.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~The moment the delivery was over, I called Nora’s driver to ask if Nora went to work. I wanted to hear her voice, I wanted to fix what I had broken. The driver told me that she was missing. He claimed that he dropped her at the office and she did not come out during the closing hours. I entrusted the rest of the business into Denver’s hand and I quickly drove to the office. “She didn’t come out after work, sir,” the driver said ne

  • MY MAFIA STEPBROTHER WANTS ME   Chapter 9

    Nora’s POVI thought I had fallen asleep but I could not get the scene of Jeremy fucking Evenlyn like a starved man, out of my head. I looked outside my window and it was so breathtaking. This house was a city on its own and now it is just Jeremy and I that are in charge excluding the eerie and mute servants. Mom texted me earlier that she was finally going on her honeymoon with her newly wed husband . That was the best news that I had heard in a while, I needed her to be away from me.I hadn’t slept, I could barely sleep. Then I heard and saw it– an engine revving too fast, tires screeching, then… a sudden block of another car.Something was wrong. I tiptoed down the stairs, curious but cautious.I got lost somewhere in the garden– a maze. All of a sudden, I heard it– gunshots. I ran towards the direction of the sound.I froze. Jeremy held a pistol in his hands and one of the guards I had seen around Denver– I think, laid on the floor in a pool of his own blood, obviously. Jeremy’s

  • MY MAFIA STEPBROTHER WANTS ME   Chapter 8

    Nora's POVI felt my legs swinging. My head kept hitting a muscular build. I could see black, Ohh yes! my eyes were shut, I was going to open them but the scent of that familiar cologne laced with whiskey… Am I in Jeremy's arms??Everything that happened flashed in my head and I just knew I didn't want to open my eyes for a while. I heard the jingling of keys as if he was opening a door. He laid me in a comfy bed slowly and gently..”Noey,” He called out my name with urgency laced in his baritone voice. I refused to open my eyes. I was not sure what it was that I felt… Shame? Disgust? Jealousy?? Nahh, I can't be jealous.He hurried to the toilet, I could hear the tap rushing. It seems he was going to pour some water on my face. I needed to act as naturally as possible. He sprinkled the water and it was so cold, I fought the twitch that almost gave me away. I didn't mean to make him panic but I was too embarrassed to open my eyes.Wait! Why should I be the embarrassed one? It is not my
