Lucian povI haven't been able to get my head out of work since I returned, I just buried myself into work and when there was no work I fucked. I was never into whoring but I've been in a bad mood and all I wanted to do was let out steam."Sir Rachel is here" perfect timing, I guess."Let her in" I said dropping my pen on the table, I folded my arms across my chest and watched Jeffery close my door, and slender fingers opened it shortly.She had a smile on her face as she catwalked towards me. She was prim and proper, not like I'd ever say that to her, but she was unlike someone I knew, unlike someone that I felt like strangling.I squeezed my fingers tightly, the hand that was around her throat, I could still feel the thumping of her pulse underneath my thumb. Sighing I withdrew my mind from Isabella and focused on Rachel."Did you bring the documents?" I asked. She took her seat and crossed her legs, her dress this time was Short so her whole thighs were on display. I dragged my ey
Isabella povIt's been three days since my altercation with Lucian, and three days since he returned to the States. Anytime I remember that evening my blood boiled, my heart raced and my hands got clammy. I had gone through so many emotions that day, from being instantly horny to being so angry to being hurt. Lucian was an ass, something I would keep saying till I died."How did you let these burn?" My mom's voice snapped me out of my thoughts."Shit, I wasn't paying attention, I am so sorry" I said dragging a random dust cloth to pull the pan from the fire Shit! The potatoes were burnt now."What were you thinking of? I smelled it all the way from my room" my mom said fanning away the smoke and coughing.To think that I didn't even smell it, man, I really must not have been able to get that day out of my mind. The smoke had cleared, and my mom had stopped coughing. She was now chugging down a jar of water. I should drink water, too, but my throat wasn't so dry."Sorry, I can make a
Lucian povI watched her leave in shock. Has she always been this bold, or did she get bolder? Whatever was wrong with her sure as hell made her fiesty. I was shocked when the corner of my lips lifted up in a smile.I planned to ignore her and carry on with my work, which I was trying to remember until she burst in through my doors with tears in her eyes and shaky hands."I-i think something is wrong?"."What do you mean?" I asked and immediately went to stand in front of her. I couldn't touch her so I maintained my distance."M-my mom she's not picking her calls, and I tried to call my dad and he's not picking either" uhh okay?"And that is a cause for alarm why?" I asked suddenly feeling irritated but I didn't show it because she was not in a good state, she seemed so shaken up and I wonder why, it can't obviously be just for the reason that her parents didn't pick up their calls. Something greater has to be at play here."Y-you don't understand, I need to know if they are okay I ne
Isabella pov"Uhh, excuse me," I said trying to walk away but he was not having it."We need to talk""About what?" I snapped unintentionally, but it was already out there. There was no need to apologize. He looked at me with a frown, and I spat out words of apologies. I was not in the mood. I just wanted to go up to my room and rest my head. I've been through so much today that I just wanted to forget."That's fine, but come in and have a seat" he said.It was the first time he was inviting me into his room and as much as I was curious I didn't feel up to having a conversation."Can we talk about whatever this is later? I need to rest and I-""I heard you met with Chris" he said making me freeze, I immediately turned around, don't know why I thought Agar would be there so I could glare at him for telling Lucian, it was not his place to tell but then could it really have been Agar? Whosoever it was should have minded their business and stayed out of mine."Yes I did, is that a problem
Isabella povOhh he was really pissed, I thought he was angry before nahhh he was now.“No you listen to me Isabella, I don’t know what you think it is you are doing, but whatever it is it’s not necessary, I can’t take you back I-““Take me back? Whatever do you mean by take me back?” I asked curiously. Was I doing something that made him think I wanted him back? It's pathetic.“You’re trying to get my attention and you have it now, just stop! It’s not necessary, I came here to ““Let me cut you right there Chris, I do not want you back, I've never thought of it and I won’t start now, and I am only here because I want to warn you” I said pointing a finger in his direction, I know I was dragging unwanted attention towards us but at this point I was boiling with rage, what the fuck had he been on about me wanting him back?“If you ever pull such a stunt like you did yesterday I swear you won’t like me, I tried to play nice, and trust me nice is all I've been playing-““I don’t understa
Isabella pov“Come by some other time okay” my mom said pulling me into her arms, which were warm by the way. My dad kissed my head and smiled down at me.“I don’t know why your brother didn't come home, but he would be around next time” “It doesn’t matter, nobody wants to see his stupid face anyways” I said and they both laughed.“Anyways, get back to us when you tell Lucian about what happened okay” my dad said rubbing my hair and I swallowed, I refused to look at my moms face because I know she would give me a look that says she knows and I so don’t want to be forced out of guilt to spill my guts out.“Sure, take care of yourselves,” I said waving one last time before walking towards the car waiting for me.Apparently Lucian had sent over four guards to watch the place, I didn’t want to call Agar at night so I waited until this morning so that when he came to pick me I would ask him and thankfully he was the one that came to collect me.“Did you tell him?” Was the first thing I a
