Spade Chapter 39
Spade was watching as each men played their cards, some played well and others really didn't have much luck with cards, the bystanders around the table were either cheering or making disappointing sounds at who was losing or winning.His eyes left the table as they landed on the young man beside him, who was keenly watching the game with all his rapt attention, as if his whole life depended on it.He could see the amusement and curiosity in Nate's eyes as he watched the game unfold, like he was seeing this for the first time, he looked like a kid that was seeing a funfair for the very first time, the way his eyes lit up everytime the employee tossed the dice and the way his eyes moved from one player to another, watching their reaction.Spade wasn't at all interested in the game, what interested him at the moment was the reaction of the young man beside him, the way he reacted to how everything unfolded, that was more than a sight for Spade, even more interesting than the game itself
Spade Chapter 40
Nate slowly picked up the cards from the table, with his heart held in his throat, he could literally feel the beating of his heart, it felt as if it would explode all over the table, staining Spade and the man in front of him with blood.He held his breath as he peeled open his eyes and looked at the five cards with him, even with how anxious and scared he was, he still couldn't understand a thing about the cards he was holding, he couldn't tell if he had the right cards or his luck had run out and he lost Spade's ten million dollars.With his breath still held, he watched the other man raise his cards too and look at it, his face was still slightly pulled up in a smile, so it was hard for Nate to ascertain if he'd won or if he had lost.He just watched the man, his eyes moving between the man and the cards in his hands, the man's eyes moved up and with that smile on his face, his eyes darted from Spade to Nate before he looked back at his cards and let out a full grin.He was the fi

Spade sat still in his car trying to process what he'd just heard and what had just happened a few seconds ago, he is supposed to be angry at Nate's outburst and somewhat disrespected but he was more turned on than he was angry.He was actually angry but the feeling of heat rushing towards his groin was more prominent than the anger.He could still the anger on Nate's face as he talked to him, letting him know exactly what he thought of him.Was he self absorbed? Yes, was he selfish? Yes But what he did today, going out of his way and taking Nate to the casino, and even letting him play freely, that wasn't an act of selfishness, he didn't do that for himself, he did for Nate and that was a first.He'd never gone out of his way to do something nice for someone else, not even Matteo, okay maybe once for Matteo, but that was it.He sighed out and ran his hands down his face, he felt like his mind was in so many places at once, he was thinking of what happened between Nate and him a few

Nate let out a deep breath as he rubbed his temple trying to ease the impounding headache he could already feel coming fast, he looked at the table and the stacks of paper only seemed to increase the more, making him almost groan out in frustration.He looked at his time and it wasn't even lunch break yet, but it felt like he'd been here the whole day, when he'd only been here a few hours and he still had a few more hours before the day would be over.And yet he couldn't even concentrate and do one thing right, his mind was already a mess, thinking about a lot of things, some those things being his encounter with Spade the previous.All the things he said during his little outburst, it had been a while since he let his feelings show that much but yesterday just had to happen.Even though deep down he knew he had doomed his sister to this stupid union between her and Spade, something he was suddenly regretting now.He was lucky he had left Spade's car last night in one piece, he went t

It's been almost an hour since his father called to inform him about Spade's new policy, and since then he hasn't even done a single work.He's been lost in thoughts, his mind running around in circles as he tried to come to a conclusion at the kind of person Spade was.Maybe he went too far with his outburst last night, but he could'nt just pretend that everything was okay, simply because Spade took him to the casino and has been strangely nice to him the past few days.The same Spade had threatened to kill him on more than one occasion, and he'd been dreaming about the same Spade, and not in a nice way.There were so many red flags on Spade that he could see, so yesterday was just something that was bound to happen.But now he had doomed his sister to suffer, because even if Spade didn't have any intention of hurting her before, he would now, after all the things he said to him yesterday.But one thing kept tugging at his mind, why didn't he say anything last night, he'd expected Sp
Spade Chapter 44
Spade shoved his hands into his pocket as he narrowed his eyes on the man in front of him, he'd never personally met him but being the kind of person he was, he'd heard about him, after all he was one the person that wanted him in cuffs and locked away"To what do I owe this surprise visit"? He asked looking at all three of them, Matteo was already at alert as he watched them too, he could tell Spade just looked relaxed, nothing about this confrontation was relaxing or even okay."A surprise indeed" the police chief muttered before taking two steps closer to Spade, he watched his every move, waiting to see if he would react to anything done or said, he'd heard a lot about Spade, he'd never met him before but he was one of his greatest challenge since becoming the police chief, he was patiently waiting for the day where he'd have Spade at his mercy and that day was fast approaching, with the amount of information he was gathering on him, it wouldn't take long before he would pin him an
Spade Chapter 45
He was running as hard and as fast as his legs could take him but it felt like he was on a thread mill, he wasn't even moving, he was stuck on the same spot, panting hard he turned and looked back, big mistake, because he almost lost it when he realized the person chasing him was almost upon him, they were just right behind himHe increased his pace but the thread mill only increased speed too, he pushed himself, feeling his chest tighten and his lungs running out of air, but the more he pushed the weaker he got and the slower his steps became.Any minute now and whoever was chasing him would catch up with him.He shut his eyes tight and prayed to whoever was listening up there to please help him out.The person chasing him can not catch up with him.The road was dark and deserted, the only thing that could be heard were the short gasps he took and the thumping of his legs on the ground as he ran tooth and nail, he looked ahead and the road was empty, endless and dark, even if he scre
Spade Chapter 46
He looked himself over in the huge, full length mirror standing in front of his closet, he looked sharp, expensive and dangerously handsome, but his eyes, they lacked the enthusiasm, the excitement.Matteo's smiling face appeared beside him as he dusted off an imaginary speck of dust off the suit"You look sharp Spade, if she didn't like you before, I bet she'd be head over heels in love with you if she sees you today" he muttered checking Spade out.He just looked at Matteo from the mirror with a bored expression, all that didn't matter to him, if she liked him or not, he didn't care.Yes, but why did he take extra time to look good, it wasn't as if this marriage/contract thing was exclusive or born out of feelings.But he took his time to look good, he didn't care if Su admired him or found him attractive, but yet he still cared enough to look good.All because of one person, he wasn't even sure he was gonna be there today, not after what happened yesterday.He sighed out and fixed
