Vaughn I groan loudly as the loud ringing from my phone fills my ears. Who's calling me at this time of the morning? I'm feeling so tired and I just want to sleep. Last night was a long night and today is the day I rest. I stretched out my hand towards my phone that's sitting in the drawer, but I don’t receive the call, but I silence it. The caller seems to be the persistent one and calls again. I groan so loudly again and this time, I receive the call. “Hello,” My voice is groggy and rough. I slept so late as I spent half of the night arranging the mess that Keiran made in my room. I couldn't even get a maid to do it for me as they obviously don't live in this same building and it was already late. “Vaughn.” The deep voice rings in my ears and all the sleep disappears from my eyes and I quickly sit up from the bed. I glance at the phone to confirm the owner of the voice and it's truly him. “Dad,” I clear my throat, running my hands through my ruffled hair. I just found out about
Keiran I'm very sure that when I was beating Vaughn up last night, I did not hit his head somewhere. Then why is he standing in front of me, uttering trash? Help each other? I totally ignore him and am about to walk upstairs when he stops me. “I want us to work together, Keiran. And I mean it. I will help you bring my father down.” He says with much seriousness and I furrow my brows at him. He wants to help me? “You may want your revenge, but you don't know Dad as much as I do.” He breathes out and an interested look appears on my face as I lean on the counter, staring intently at Vaughn. Now, what is The Golden Boy driving at? “Make me understand, Vaughn.” His name rolls out of my tongue so freely as I fix my eyes on him and then he clears his throat, before continuing. “We both know that my father is trying to make a huge comeback into the law industry. What if we stop him from doing that? You already gave him some money, so he's on his way to the top. But we can stop h
Keiran “I swear to fuck, I'm going to kill you once I lay my hands on you. What the fuck is even wrong with you?? How could you think of making such a mistake??” I yell angrily into my phone, dressing up in haste and I feel an intense wave of anger course through me. “I’m so sorry, boss—” Alfie begins but I'm quick to shut him up. “Just shut the fuck up. Not any more words from you. Try and make sure things are set.” I suddenly pause, hissing under my breath. “What am I even saying?? You weren't even competent enough to carry out a simple task. How will you carry out this one?? I'm on my way.” I don't wait to hear any more shitty apologies that he has to say as I end the call. Alfie is my enforcer and he's responsible for carrying out some tasks in my organization and now, he just made a mistake. I should have taken care of this myself. After getting dressed, I storm out of my room angrily, my phone in hand. The moment I arrive downstairs, I meet Vaughn and Bryce standing in the
Keiran You can definitely say that this whole week has been so hectic for me. From crashing out on the day of my parent's death anniversary, having a fight with Vaughn, and the issue with the cartels. I already got that sorted out and it was so hectic doing so. I spent the whole day trying to retrieve my packages from them, and after a lot of threatening and blowing up one of their warehouses, they returned everything that they had taken. When I returned home in the evening, I fell on the bed like a log of wood. I was exhausted. Right now, I'm in Vaughn’s place. Our secret meeting place. I can see that his car is already packed in front of the house and that only means that he wanted to come early before me. I was quite early the first time. Vaughn will never know that it’s me. I use a car that he doesn't even know of, and I use a perfume that is entirely different from my normal ones. I also used eye contact lenses. With that, it will be hard for him to recognize me. I put on m
Vaughn I gag the moment Kye's cock hits the back of my throat and he suddenly grips my hair. “Keep your mouth open, while I fuck it.” He pushes out his cock, only to thrust right in again, hard. His thrusts are brutal and I enjoy every thrust of his. I love it hard and I like that Kye likes it rough. I keep my mouth open and Kye grunts softly as he fucks my mouth hard. At some point, I'm scared that my mask will fall off due to how hard he goes on me, but Kye seems to have everything under control. “You are taking my cock do well, Lonewolf.” Kye drawls out and then he hisses under his breath, when he finally leaves his cock inside my mouth. He has stopped thrusting hard and I use that opportunity to breathe. I feel so breathless and it takes a lot of self-control to keep it up with him and not vomit. My eyes are wet with unshed tears as well. “Suck.” That single order of his makes me stick out my tongue and I begin to suck his dick, hungry and starved. Kye’s voice makes me feel th
Vaughn My butthole is hurting like hell. Kye really went hard on me and I don't even know how I left my place the next morning. He did not stay last night and left just after we had sex. A very rough one that left me bleeding and more sore than the last sex we had. I'm not going to work yet and my phone is blowing up with messages from Zoey. I lied to her that I was sick and told her to keep me updated on whatever is happening in the law firm. The other person calling non stop is Wren. She wants to come to visit. I've still not forgotten the promise I made to her to bring her and Keiran together and I'm still working on fulfilling that promise. For now, she will have to wait. Keiran and I are not on good terms and he will not agree for her to come into his house. He hardly tolerates me, not to talk of my sister. I finally leave my house in the morning after taking a warm and soothing shower and I go straight to Keiran's house. I don't see him around when I arrive and I just go str
Keiran “I don't think this deal can work, Moore,” I say to the middle-aged man who's seated in front of me. I'm in a downtown bar where I'm having a meeting with Moore, a business owner who wants me to own shares in his company. I really did not want to come here because Alfie and Bryce convinced me by saying it was going to be a good deal. But so far, I don't think I can work with this man. He is too gullible and he's not trustworthy in any way. I'm not going to work with him. “Come on Thorn. What are you saying?” He chuckles, slowly taking a sip from his drink and then he gestures at mine. “Please have your drink.” I frown at him. I've only taken a sip from my drink since I got here and I did not take another sip because I did not feel the need to. Something did not feel right, so I refrained from drinking anything again.” I can rephrase the contract to what you want to work with. I really want to work with you Keiran. I hope that you can accept this.” He says trying to c
Vaughn There's a bored look on my face as I watch TV. I was bored and forced myself to come sit in front of this TV. They said it was swoon-worthy. But I don't find anything swooning about it. The female lead is just being stupid for begging for love from the male lead. I mean, if he doesn't want you, look somewhere else. Why does she have to chase him around, even after he cheated? What sort of love is that exactly?? Sometimes I feel the need to walk up to the TV and just smash it. But it takes all the self-control in me not to do it. The female lead is just plain stupid, nothing else. “Boring.” I draw out, throwing potato chips into my mouth and I crunch on it loudly. I'm the only one home. Keiran is not home and you can say that I'm indirectly waiting for him to come back. It's already past 10 and I wonder why he stayed out so long. That's an unhealthy habit. His maid has started leaving breakfast, lunch and dinner for me since the day I complained that she hardly serves me meal
VAUGHN “It’s time to leave. Are you ready?” Keiran calls out from the door, and I chuckle.“Why don’t you come in and see for yourself?” I yell back.“I can’t afford you seducing me. Hurry up,” he says, and I smirk. I spray on my perfume, give myself one last glance in the mirror, and step out. His eyes roam over me like he’s trying to memorize every inch.“You look good,” he says, almost breathless.I walk closer with a grin. “Don’t I always?”As I brush past him, he leans in, his voice low and rough against my neck. “If we weren’t going out, I’d fuck you so hard you’d forget how to be sassy.”A shiver runs down my spine as his hand finds my waist, guiding me outside.We arrive at the wedding venue, and the moment we step in, I spot several of my former colleagues from the firm. They’re excited to see me, and truthfully, I missed them too. Keiran stays right beside me, close and grounding.Zoey sees me, and her face lights up.“Hey!” she says.“Hi,” I reply, a bit awkwardly. Keiran
VAUGHNI pace back and forth, my arms folded tightly across my chest, my heart thudding like a drum in my ears. Keiran should’ve been back by now. The longer he stays out, the harder it gets to breathe. He went to face my dad and every second that ticks by adds another stone of fear to my chest.My father isn’t just cruel, he’s dangerous, the kind of man who doesn’t flinch at the sight of blood. And Keiran’s reckless when he’s angry, especially when it comes to something so personal.I drop onto the couch and grab the remote, flipping through the channels without really seeing anything. Bright colors, loud voices, laughter but none of it stopped the storm cloud swirling in my head. I can’t focus. My fingers tremble, and my knee bounces restlessly.Why hasn’t he called?My mind spins out of control, crafting scenario after scenario, each one worse than the last. What if my dad pulled a gun? What if Keiran fought back and things spiraled? What if he didn’t walk away?“What if he gets sh
KEIRAN“It’s not possible. No, you’re a liar! You don’t know them!” Reynolds shakes his head, trembling with denial, and I scoff.“You killed them, and now you pretend they never existed?” I growl, my voice sharp with rage. “You’re a fucking bastard.”I drive my foot into his gut.He gasps, his face contorting in agony as he doubles over, clutching his stomach and coughing.“You can’t be their son,” he wheezes, looking up at me with wide, horrified eyes. “They’re dead. All of them. No one survived. How are you even here?”“This has to be a joke. A cruel joke,” he spits, anger taking over his confusion. “Who sent you? Why the fuck are you doing this to me?”I stare down at him, eyes dark. “How could I be dead when you’re still breathing after what you did to my family?”He freezes. Staring. Still clinging to some false hope that this is all some twisted coincidence. But it’s not. I can see it settling into his bones now, the truth.I am his nightmare.I want him to feel every ounce of
KEIRANI walk into the house with a cold glare etched on my face, a dark smirk tugging at my lips as I scan the ridiculous number of guards stationed outside.“The poor fool can’t even afford proper security anymore,” I whispered, making my way to the door without a shred of hesitation.The guards snap to attention the moment they spot me and my men silently falling into place behind me.“Who are you, and what are you doing here? Do you have an appointment?” one of them asks, stepping forward. I shrug and casually place my hand on the doorknob. Just as I’m about to push it open, a hand lands on my shoulder, and not a moment later, the air fills with the sound of pain as my guards move in, attacking them with swift, brutal efficiency.I scoff. “I wonder how much he pays you that you’re so willing to die for him,” I mutter darkly before stepping into the house.I glance around in disgust. The place looks exactly like I imagined, excessive and hollow. Then my eyes land on the man of the
KEIRAN I make sure Vaughn is well-fed and sleeping soundly before I quietly leave his room and step into mine. The weight of everything presses heavily on my shoulders, but I bury it deep. A soft knock echoes against the door.I don’t need to ask who it is. “Come in,” I call, my voice low.Bryce steps inside without hesitation, his face grim. The moment our eyes meet, I already know I won’t like what he has to say.“Boss,” he greets.I nod once and motion for him to speak. “What have you gathered so far?”He doesn’t waste time. “Your suspicion is right, boss,” he says, his voice clipped and laced with tension.I tense, bracing myself.“The accident was orchestrated by Reynolds McCarthy.”My jaw clenches so tightly I feel the muscles strain. A thick, simmering rage begins to rise inside me, curling around my ribs like a slow-burning fire. His name feels like poison in my veins.That bastard.How many times do I have to deal with his bullshit? How many lives does he get to play with b
VAUGHN“Stop acting like I’m a fucking child, I can do it myself,” I snap, snatching the cotton pad back from Kieran’s hand.He doesn't even flinch, just rolls his eyes and snatches it right back like I’m the brat throwing a tantrum. “Really?” he says, tone dripping with sarcasm. “Because two seconds ago you looked like a toddler wincing and flinching like I was about to rip your face off. Now shut up and let me do it.”I glare at him. “You are so annoying.”A slow, smug grin spreads across his face as he leans in a little closer, too pleased with himself. “And you’re adorable when you’re annoyed over the tiniest things.”“Fuck you,” I mutter, voice laced with irritation.“You wish,” he shots back, the smirk never leaving his lips. I hate how easily he turns everything into a game. Worse, I hate how my heart betrays me just a little when he leans in like that.With a gentleness that does nog match his sharp mouth, Kieran dabs the disinfectant onto the gash on my forehead. It stings l
Keiran I have never driven this fast in my whole life. I almost lost it when Bryce told me that Vaughn was involved in an accident and I was fucking confused about how that was possible. We just finished talking and the last thing that I expected was Vaughn getting into an accident. How was that even possible? He is not a careless driver. I arrive at the hospital and I rush into the building, going straight to where Bryce said he was. “Where is he?” I ask Bryce the moment I see him and he stands on seeing me. “Boss.” He calls and I smack my lips hard. I just asked him where they have kept my husband and he's addressing me by boss. That is the last thing that I want to hear. What I want to hear from him is to know how Vaughn is feeling and how brutal the accident was. “Where the fuck is Vaughn?!” My voice thunders in the hospital and some of the nurses passing by stop to look at me, but I don't fucking care. I just want to know how Vaughn is feeling. I hope he's fine and if there i
Keiran I kept grinning from ear to ear at Vaughn’s confession and I was even sure that Vaughn would soon notice that I was grinning through my mask. But I just couldn't help it. He likes me. Vaughn likes me and how do I feel about the news? Terrific! It has to be the best news that I've heard in a while. He likes me. That is good news. “You do?” I clear my throat and I look at Vaughn who slowly nods his head as he sits tiredly on the couch. He looks confused like he's not sure of his emotions yet. And do I like Vaughn as well? Fuck I do. I seriously do and I don't even realize when the feelings started. But I like him so much and there is no denying it. “Yes,” Vaughn confirms and he slowly clears his throat. “The feelings just started. I used to hate him a lot. My husband has always been my core enemy and he only married me for revenge. There was a time when we couldn't stand each other, but now, I want to see his face every day. I feel flutters in my stomach each time I look at h
Keiran I pack my car in front of Vaughn's house and as usual, there is a mask on my face. We are meeting today again, as Kye and lone wolf and I'm here to alter his suspicions that Kye and Keiran are the same. I'm not going to easily agree to go naked and even if I do, he will find nothing. I have not been home all day as I have been working on concealing my tattoos temporarily. It will seem like I don't have any of them. I take in a deep breath and after making sure that my mask is secure, I step out of my car and go straight into the house. Vaughn is already here. I suspected so. He told me that he would be spending the night elsewhere and when I asked where, he said a friend. I kept asking to know which friend and even teased him that he had no friends, but Vaughn asked me to mind my business and said that it was a long-time friend that just returned to London.“Hey.” I clear my throat, keeping my American accent and Vaughn who is sitting on the couch turns to look at me. He sta
