Chapter Eighty-one

CAUGHT

“How long do I have to wait, Leo? It's been weeks and I haven’t seen or talked to my fiance. You keep telling me to wait, coming up with different excuses for him,” Melinda complained over the phone.

“You really can’t blame me, miss. I am just a virtual assistant. Monitoring his whereabouts is not part of my job description,” Leo groaned.

He still didn’t know how she got a hold of his number. Artemis blocked her so it was understandable she couldn’t reach him, but w

  • Tame This Bad Boy, Professor   Dead?

    Chapter 108Things started going downhill. It was way too fast that Trevor McAlester barely had the time to react. The first was the destruction of three of his warehouses, losing about ten million dollars. No clues left behind. Barely two days after, fake dock authorities seized forearms worth fifty million and vanished without a trace. On his way to the port, he was ambushed by some Russians, which was crazy cause he had no recent altercations with them. His men were outsmarted and he was shot twice with very lethal bullets. He was currently receiving treatment at home when his own son brought more trouble to his doorstep.Apparently, Artemis had the lab techs assault Melinda and sent the video to her fucking father now the Italians were raging and declaring war. The only good thing was that Artemis sent the video anonymously but that wouldn't take long for Sanchez to trace the source. Which was why Trevor was fuming now, “What the hell is wrong with you, Artemis?! What were y

  • Tame This Bad Boy, Professor   A hint

    Chapter 107Artemis returned home dejected. He wasn't sure what to think anymore or what to do. All their efforts had been in vain. There was nothing to show for it except Melinda. The only option left was to wait for her recovery. He couldn't get an answer out of her in this state no matter how hard he tried to force her. Surprisingly, Trevor didn't make a fuss about keeping Melinda hostage, even though Sanchez was his good friend. Artemis was sure Trevor was up to something. It was possibly because of the bold accusation he made the last time. He was certain Trevor was still bothered about it and investigating to see if his so-called friend actually betrayed him. That at least gave him the guarantee that his father wouldn't kill Lucian on sight. Still, staying in the same house with the man repulsed him. He had to move to his penthouse to avoid doing something as outrageously stupid as pointing a gun in the man's face.Poisoning would have been a lot faster but Artemis didn'

  • Tame This Bad Boy, Professor   Help

    Chapter 106“Lucian.” The man's eyes slowly fluttered open. “Hey, I brought some homemade cookies. It's probably not what you need now, but it'll make you feel better,” Laura said carefully.She was standing a few meters from the bed where he was tugged in. His whole body was hidden under the duvet with only the red mop of hair in sight. The room was freezing cold but everything she tried to run up the degrees, he reduced it the second she was gone. Three days since he got here and he was yet to utter a word to her. Only his friend did the talking. She did try asking what the matter was but his friend would only say they wanted to stay at hers for a while. Something about Lucian was different. Even when he looked at her, it felt like he wasn't seeing her. He was even quieter than usual and kept a very noticeable distance from them.She assumed the next time she saw him, she could bombard with questions about his boyfriend, Artemis and also why the hell she couldn't reach him for

  • Tame This Bad Boy, Professor   Where is he?

    Chapter 105Two hours after an intense shootout, Melinda was finally found. However, the state which Artemis found her was shocking. She was naked and covered in bruises and scratch marks. She had a collar on and was licking the floors, muttering something incoherent. Even her supposed bodyguards were shocked to see her like boss. “Boss!” One of them tried to rush forward, only to get a gun to his throat. “What exactly is going on here?” Artemis demanded. “Why is she like this and where the hell is Lucian?” The man shook his head slowly, his confusion apparent. “I don't know…”Artemis gestured at his men to search the place before turning to the man. “You don't know? But you're supposed to be her bodyguards, no?” “After we landed on the island, she strictly forbade us from coming anywhere near the main house. The only person allowed inside is the chef. We were just to hang around the perimeters,” the man answered. “That sounds like bull,” Artemis cocked the gun and the man's

  • Tame This Bad Boy, Professor   Found him

    Chapter 104When Artemis' eyes fluttered open again, his body felt numb. His mind was blank for the first few seconds and all he could do was scan the room in confusion. This was Leo's room. What was he doing here again?“Boss,” Leo's excited voice drew his attention to his left side. The man was standing there with dark circles under his eyes and a tired smile. He looked like a ghost. “You're finally awake.” Artemis' eyes narrowed at him. Why was his assistant looking like that?“I found him,” Leo blurted, unable to keep it in anymore. “I found Lucian. The men are already on their way to her hideout now. Can you believe the reason we couldn't find her was because she was out of the country? She moved to one of the Sanchez island safehouses.”For a moment, Artemis said nothing. Then everything came rushing back all at once. He forced himself up, then noticed the drip connected to his hand. He pulled it out without second thoughts. “Where did you say Lucian is?” He questioned. “O

  • Tame This Bad Boy, Professor   A ray of hope

    Chapter 103It's been two weeks. Two whole weeks since that FaceTime and Melinda had gone under the radar. Artemis couldn't find her or Lucian. Leo was working overtime, Artemis' men combed the city and Trevor's men were also on the move. Still, there was no sign of Melinda. Her father denied knowing her whereabouts too but both Trevor and Artemis were well aware it was a lie. Artemis wanted to press the matter but Trevor forbade him from doing so. It killed him inside to know that Lucian was out with her, possibly being assaulted over and over again. He couldn't forgive himself for letting it happen. For letting his guard down and leaving Lucian at the mercy of his father. He was losing his mind just thinking about it. His insomnia had gotten even worse. His body had collapsed thrice already from lack of sleep, and his mind was slowly slipping into madness. Dark circles shadowed his eyes, his hands trembled uncontrollably, and he even began seeing things that weren't there. Ye
