View More* Axel * She picked the restaurant not far from my hotel when I mentioned to her over the phone where I was staying. Julliana, that is what she wanted me to call her. The woman whom I should marry if I wish to land a business casino here in Singapore peacefully. Her father is the head of the dragon gang, so my mind is on a chaotic page right now. Before heading out, I opened my phone and typed a short message to the woman that I was hoping to see before I finalized my decision.But I stared at the blank screen wondering what I would tell her."Are you ready to leave Boss?"A question from Donte on the driver's seat put me back to the present. "Yes, let's go."He looked at me trying to see if I was alright and it annoyed me more than anything. "Drive Donte, I don't want her to arrive at the venue first."After I said that he nodded and started the car, there were only the two of us in a rented vehicle so I decided to take on his suggestion. We have to change cars, from the day we arri
* Axel *The night ended with only the old man smiling and the rest of the men on my team waiting for the decision that I had to come up with after three days. Life in Singapore is fancy just like how I live in Italy, the country has so much to offer and I wanted to build my business here. In my thoughts I have to talk to the woman who could help me with my business, what she needs in return if she agrees to marry me just for a show, to please her old man.I am still in doubt, I can't marry someone I don't love. Thinking about it is making me puke, however I need to help my men who are already relying on me. The men that I recruited because of my plan for business expansion here in Singapore. The purpose of my life is to build this empire that my father left and the old man is a big hindrance for me. But perhaps I can make it happen through his daughter who offered me a date this afternoon."Good morning Boss!"Donte wakes up first as I walk towards the fancy kitchen of the new hotel.
* Axel *"I have to apologize Mister Goh, but I don't think I could accept this proposal. I don't mix business with my relationship and I already have a woman in my life. This idea is absurd."I shook my head and found my eyes resting on the woman beside me whose face was smiling and lips beginning to pout at the rejection that she heard coming from me."Oh, you don't have to sound so defensive Mister Brussel."Her voice is sweet and pleading, she is younger than Reda but I could tell her boldness from how she carries herself. I bet she is deadly as well as her charms are, she learned everything from his father and the resemblance she has with her brother is slowly resurfacing.Mister Goh chuckled. "Don't give me your decision now Axel, there is only one reason that you could stay here unharmed and one reason for you to get doomed and that is me. I am giving you three days to decide, whether you marry my daughter or you get out of this country for good."My expression dimmed and I kne
* Axel *"She's harmless Axel, her name is Julie and this beside me is Anne."I smirked and the lady beside me giggled despite the gap between us I could smell the scent of her perfume. It's not something that anyone could just ignore, it invades my nostrils but nothing could ever take my mind off from the woman that I have already declared to pursue. The elevator opened and then the men who work for Mister Jo together with my men came in."It's alright Mister Goh, I am fine with lady friends for tonight. I am a man after all."My comment made the lady laugh and adore me with her smile and look but I have no plan of taking her with me if that is what she was expecting."Good, great that the boys are here."He managed to let them sit in the bar which is not far from us. Donte passed by my chair taking a look at the woman beside me. "Are you alright Boss?""Never been fine Donte, go drink with the boys. Enjoy this night it is all thanks to Mister Go over here, I think that it wouldn't
* Axel *It was not what I had expected, for the old man to come down first than the rest of his army. He walks slowly dressed up in a fancy white suit with a formal white hat on top of his head. I could tell that he has no hair underneath the expensive fabric of the hat, but his build is still strong with his legs walking evenly unlike the rest of the old men that I have seen who have reached the age of over sixty or nearly seventy years old. I opened the door beside which alerted all of my men inside."Boss Axel!"Donte who was already going down first tried to stop me, but I didn't pause for a single second and directly landed my feet on the ground to meet the old man. "Stay where you are Donte, or follow behind me but don't embarrass me by meeting him first."Donte cleared his throat to answer me that and also to stay calm. The enemy is just sitting there behind the old man who's closer to me now. "Hi there! Mister Axel Brussel in the flesh, I am glad to meet you."His cheerful vo
* Axel *"She is safe Boss."The relief surged when I heard Rafael reporting the situation with Reda. I asked him to escort her into the airport for her flight at five pm and Rafael was able to call after twenty minutes."Did she get inside the airport Rafael?""Yes Boss, I watched her pass through the security and enter the staff entrance. She is with her colleagues."I exhaled slowly. "Good job! come back now. And Rafel.""Yes Boss Axel, I am with the driver. On my way back to you at the hotel."I paused for a couple of seconds. "Thank you, Rafael.""You're welcome, Boss Axel. Anytime sir."I click the end button and look at both Donte and Rocus with all the other men inside the room. Everyone is trying to hide the most deadly weapon they have on their clothing. With me, I only have a small knife hidden in my boots and one in my belt. We can't bring anything that's going to blow since the hotel is still a strict public place with security and cameras everywhere.For more than one ho
* Axel * "This is not right Donte!"Donte looked at me as I gritted my teeth while removing some of the buttons on my long-sleeved shirt. I slammed my fist on the table and then sat down, the other two, Rafael and Rocus sat down on the couch while Donte sat in front of me."Nothing is going right from the start Boss Axel. I told you that we needed to be extra careful and need more men which is now going as planned but still, they have got inside this hotel without any signal from our men downstairs."I dialed my phone and angrily listened to the other line. "Yes! I need you to send two people to this room number and make sure that she is safe to the airport this evening before six pm. No questions! If there is anything out of the ordinary call me, if there is something that would happen to her I would personally hold all the three of you responsible! Got it?""Yes Boss Axel!"The voice of my man on the other line sounded a little worried when he heard my angry voice. I just sent thre
* Axel *My eyes roamed all over her and reminded me of when I held her in my arms, and just yesterday I had a taste of those sweet velvety lips. I could still have her taste at the tip of my tongue or perhaps just the memory of it. I envy the cup where her lips gently pressed because right at the moment all I could think about was pulling her close to me and feeling her body naked against mine. Despite the sexual tension between us, I was fully aware of the new guests arriving at the entrance of the restaurant."How did you know about my work schedule?"She asked, slightly distracting me from assisting the new arrival of guests. Donte signals the rest of the team and I quickly stand up from my seat to the surprise of Reda Faith."The restaurant will be too crowded now Reda, let me take you back to your room.”"Huh? Why?"She looks around without a clue even when two of the men standing took a seat just near the balcony. We have booked the entire balcony for ourselves but not the whol
* Reda Faith *My eyes flew open as soon as the sun came out from the clouds, and the memories of Axel inside the room yesterday were so vivid that I could still smell his scent around me. The noise of the alarm from my phone followed by a text message alert made me up quickly. I grab the phone from my bedside table and see what she messages me about. Then groaned when I read that she wanted us to have breakfast together. Axel is expecting me around eight so I sent her a text that I couldn't make it without any particular reason.Of course, she then asked me why, but that one I chose not to reply and instead went ahead to the bathroom and took a bath. I am trying to convince myself that I am not excited to meet him but it was the only thing I thought about the whole night before I closed my eyes and slept. After my bath, the next thing I did was to find the perfect outfit for the date. Date? I wanted to kick myself for thinking that I was having a romantic date with him, but there was
