“Do you think we'll make it out alive?” Aria said wispily. “Felix is hell bent on killing us. He promised to kill me in particular.”

I glanced at Tommy, sitting next to Aria, the rope tightly secured around his hands and legs like a goddamn animal.

Tommy had put up a fight, knocking Felix out cold, and was on the verge of untying us, when Pedro barged in, armed, his pointer dotting Tommy's forehead, and shattering the fragile hope.

We're in a white, empty, medium-sized room, flooded with white tiles and bulbs, with no windows.

After being ambushed, they seized our phones, switching them off, and dumped black veils over our faces. The ride from gun point down here was fast and smooth, without a glimpse of where we’re heading until we were trundled out like slaves, and strapped to a chair.

Aria began. “Do you think he'd—”

“Don't even think of it, because I'd die before letting that jackal touch you,” I assured, voice firm.

  • Queen Of Hearts: My Ex Or My Next.   MYSTERIOUS QUEEN BEE

    KaidaThe icy wind stabbed against my skin, clashing with the carnage in my soul, and for the first time in five years, my body hungered with the lust to kill. The last time I pulled a trigger was a necessary evil. A man was at the wrong place, at the wrong time, and letting him off the hook would have spelled my demise. So literally, his eyes were the death of him, and as much as it saddens me, I had no choice. Forgive me, Aston.It took about four hours to discover where Laura was held hostage. The brainy of a wife never ceased to impress me. At the verge of taking dark measures, my phone picked up a location from her watch’s GPS, and I took ‘black Aston’: my gun's name.’ driving like a madman, and arriving at the location in no time.To my dismay, Kai and Lucian had arrived first, and I stood in the corridor, taking shelter in the shadows, and witnessing firsthand every happening in the room. From Pedro's death, to Kai's outrage, down to the hellish sight of Laura's breakdown. My

    KaiLaura's face flushed red, and I could tell she was one step away from puking on the floor. I gritted my teeth, containing the burst of laughter swelling inside me— she hated violence.Her lips pursed, and I shrugged. What should I have done? F**king preach? Or kissed him?! He had a gun to your head, ex-wife.Aria stared at me with a pointed look, disdain evident in her eyes, while the blonde-eyed driver remained blankly like a robot. I rolled my shoulders in an attempt to dissipate the tension crowding my shoulders— not f**king working.Vessel harvesting? The perfect plan. Maim the motherf**kers, pick out every artery in their body, and spike their veins with adrenaline. Giving terror in exchange for information. Lucian had disapproved of it, swearing on his medical oath and stating that we sedate and torture the criminals so we could fish out the culprit. I had grabbed his scalpel and threatened to shove it up his a*s if he dared interfere with my death print. Looks like he'

  • Queen Of Hearts: My Ex Or My Next.   THE QUEEN'S SIGNAL: NerdyXprotect

    KaiAn onslaught of morbid emotions corrodes every cell in my body, and I think my humanity must have broken from how murderous I'm seething.I leaned back in my chair, arsenic flooding my veins, with the smoky sting of nicotine fogging my senses. I had killed once in self-defense, but maybe it was time to rekindle old sins. Not with survival, but taking my time, slow and steady, and picking out every strand of arteries inside those motherf**kers, until they bleed dry, and arranging their bones in alphabetical order. After being stitched up by that succubus of a wife, I proceeded to observe my 6 o’clock ritual— making pancakes for my Sunshine. Luna had been so touchy, crying, and bathing me in iodine, even after lying to her that I was fine, and that I miraculously escaped a robbery attack. “I want to be a nurse, so that when I grow up I could take care of you, and sting those robbers in their wicked bum bums,” she had told me, sobbing, and I had smiled. “You can be anything you w

  • Queen Of Hearts: My Ex Or My Next.   AMBUSHED

    Laura I dialed Kaida's number for the umpteenth time, but every time it connected, it went off immediately.Tommy doesn't know about his whereabouts, except that he sternly warned not to be followed, and that he had taken off with his emergency car.My heart twisted in despair, and I felt like I deserved a heart attack.Maybe he went through with his words? Fed up, angry, and disappeared? No, he wouldn't abandon Kevin? Me?Oh, Laura! You shouldn't have said that. He was going to kill his brother, what was I supposed to do? I should have kept shut and watched him destroy the man who ruined my life. And risked Kevin's future hatred? The fact that I planned on taking Kevin's paternal secret to the grave doesn't warrant I sat there, doing nothing, and watched his father die.Hurting Kaida or Kevin? Both carried ominous consequences, and I happened to choose the lesser evil— Kaida. Ugh!The guilt swelled in my chest like a neon balloon, and I think I might burst if I don't talk to someo

  • Queen Of Hearts: My Ex Or My Next.   LUST AND LOST

    Kaida I've heard rumors of the dead springing back to life, but I never believed in them, and here I was, a testament to my greatest disbelief—— resurrection.She cupped my face with intimate grace, her velvety lips caressing mine, and breathed life into the deepest, darkest depths of my soul. I grabbed her waist, her delicate skin a contrast to my rigid grip, as I kissed her deeply, savoring the feel of her divine taste.I don't know if kissing an angel was a sin, but I'd burn in the deepest parts of hell before letting this goddess out of my arms.F**k money, luxury jets, penthouses, and other decorations labelling a rich man. She was the only universal piece that couldn't be bought with money, immune to sculpted faces, and ignorant of fashion trends. The world knew Kaida Crawford as a perfect man, with the entire world at the tip of his fingers. They saw the smiles on cameras, tailored suits on red carpets, and a business king ruling the headlines. They never saw a complex man
