  • SHADOW AND BLOOD: THE PRICE OF LOVING YOU    CHAPTER SIXTY - FOUR

    NICK WALKER ©“What the fuck is wrong with you?” I asked, pushing him aside.“Tell me what the person says,” he said, pulling me out of the restroom.“Let me go… right now,” I told him, stopping in my tracks.He sucked in a deep breath and slowly let go of my hand.“I need you to understand…” he started.“Can we not talk right now?” I cut him off and tried to walk away, but he stepped right in front of me.“Nick, listen to me. I need to know what the person said when he called,” he said, and I sighed.“Why on earth are you making a fuss over a prank call?” I snapped.“Because I need to know, Nick,” he shot back.“Fine. He told me to tell Vadim to keep ‘me’ safe because… I don’t know. I forgot what else he said,” I said, trying to walk past him.He blocked my path, making me stop in my tracks.I took a deep breath, ran my hands through my hair, sighing.“I need to leave,” I said firmly.“Not until you remember what the person said.” He frowned, and I scoffed.I pinched the bridge of my

    NICK WALKER ©I let out a shaky breath into the pillow under my face.“I’m going to be okay,” I kept telling myself as I lay there.But I knew I was lying.I wasn’t okay.We weren’t okay.I bit my lip, trying to hold back the tears I had been holding back since I left Enzo’s house.“Are you going to lie there forever?” I heard Avery ask from across the room.“It’s nothing,” I said in a muffled voice.“Okay, time’s up. Get up,” Avery said as she tried to pull me up.I groaned as she tried to sit me up. Our eyes met, and I let out a sigh.“It’s not what I think…” she started, then stopped as she looked around for Mira.I rolled my eyes and dropped back onto the couch, burying my face in the cushion.“Well, what can I say?” she said with a teasing smile.My hole still hurts like hell like it's never going to heal. My body grew tired and worn out, and I couldn't talk about it. Not even with my best friend.We stayed quiet for a while before I finally spoke.“Something is wrong with Enzo,

    LORENZO GRAYSON\ VADIM KERZHAKOV ©He gently pulled his face from mine, biting back a moan. His fingers pierced my skin as I thrust my fingers in.I wrapped my hands on his nape and pulled him for a kiss.“Argh.“ He moaned and whimpered as I pushed my fingers in him.He kept his gaze on me which strangely caused my cock to tighten, I thrust deeper as we moved in pace together.I grabbed my hardened cock and looked around for a lubricant.“Fuck it.“ I whispered and dropped spit on my hardened cock.“It's going to hurt.“ I told him, and his hand gripped my arm as he tried to even his breath.I leaned down and kissed him, exploring his mouth with my tongue, savouring the sweetness of his lips.I stroked my hard cock and pushed the tip of it inside him, making Nick gasp as he rolled his eyes, his hand still gripping my arm.I took his hair from his face and ran my hand through his hair. “Breathe." I told him, looking into his eyes as his breath came out uneven before he gave a slow nod.

  • SHADOW AND BLOOD: THE PRICE OF LOVING YOU    CHAPTER SIXTY - ONE

    NICK WALKER © I always held Enzo close whenever we were together, and it includes this moment also. I sometimes get the fear that he might run from my arms and I can't explain where that feeling came from. Maybe I wasn't wrong to feel that way. For a moment, it felt like I was about to lose him. But he was here again, his tongue stuck in mine. He pulled away from me and stared at my bleeding wrist. The cloth wrapped around it was already soaked with blood. He let out a sigh and turned to leave, but I quickly grabbed his shirt. He looked back at me and ruffled my hair, giving me a short smile before gently removing my hand from his shirt. Then he walked out of the gym, leaving me alone. I stared down at my wrist. It hurt, but I barely registered the pain. My mind was too focused on Enzo. I couldn't stop thinking about him. I looked across the large gym and noticed cigarettes and ashes scattered across the floor. Everything was a mess. It looked like he had bee

    NICK WALKER ©After my conversation with Mr. Kyle that day, I still couldn't get hold of Enzo for another three days.Mr. Kyle wasn't letting me see him because his men kept stopping me. Even when he left his office, one thing or another always stopped me from getting to him.My head was a mess. Back at home, I had planned a small outing for Mira and Mom without telling either of them. But it turned into a failure, just like I expected.Mira and I had a fight before I left home for work.Enzo still wasn't replying to my messages.I pressed my lips together and stared at the entrance of the bar."What's got you thinking?" Shawn asked as he stood in front of the counter."Ah. Nothing, really," I said with a forced smile.I suddenly spotted Mr. Kyle leaving his office upstairs with his men. I quickly grabbed my phone."Where are you going?" Shawn asked as I left my station.“Uh, the bathroom. Cover for me for a while,” I told him before walking outside.Before I could get to him, his men

    NICK WALKER ©The exams were over, and the holiday had finally started. But I hadn't been able to reach Enzo for the past three days.He hadn't come to my house, and I hadn't seen him at work either. He wasn't replying to my texts or answering my calls.I couldn't stop worrying.I just wanted to know if he was okay.Was he sick?“Aren't you going to eat?” Avery asked as we sat down for lunch.I sighed as I stared at the food in front of me.“If you're not going to eat it, give it to me,” Avery said, pulling my plate toward herself.Seriously?Before she could take another bite, Mira smacked the back of Avery's hand with her spoon and pulled the plate back to me.“Ow! That hurt.”“Mira, apologize,” I said quickly as I took Avery's hand to check it.“How did you even choose her as your friend?” Mira asked, shaking her head as she continued eating.“He wasn't eating. You didn't have to be so harsh,” Avery said, rubbing the spot where Mira had hit her.“Well... sorry,” Mira mumbled.Avery

    NICK WALKER ©We had already left the house, and the drive was so very awkward. Neither of us said a word as the car moved through the morning traffic.I sighed and turned my attention to the window. My palms were sweaty.
