The Architect Of My Ruin Chapter Sixty Two.
A deep frown marred her face.. "Um... I really don't think that would be a good idea right–" "Please.." Alaric interrupted.. "Just a few minutes of your time. That is all I am asking." Elara bit down hard on her lower lip, then exhaled a sigh.. "Alright.." she finally said. "You can send me the address." "Thank you, Elara. Truly. I will see you soon." he said, hanging up before she could change her mind. The line went dead. Elara stared at the blank screen of her phone, a sinking feeling settling deep in her stomach. 'Alaric Kings..it's been so long.. I remembered saving from from few bullies. But, he has been trying to be friends with me despite the less signs I gave him..' she thought.. 'well, I'm glad he is doing better, he is even an investor in the Pierce company. Still confusing why he left high-school so soon. Although he is a weird kid back then.' She shook her head, trying to dislodge the creeping sense of dread. "It's just for a few minutes.." she mumbled, desperate

The Next Morning...Elara let out a shuddering sigh, sinking even deeper into the scalding, rose scented water of the bathtub, completely exhausted.Every single muscle in her body ached with a deep soreness. She let her head rest against the edge of the tub."Good lord.." she murmured "He doesn't even know the meaning of the word 'break'. If this keeps up, I'm going to start believing the man is actually a feral wolf in heat."As her body finally began to relax in the suds, her racing thoughts drifted back to the chaos of yesterday afternoon.Her brow furrowed in deep concentration.Slowly, she raised her dripping arm from the water, her eyes locking onto the faint, purpling fingerprints still marring the skin of her wrist."So that was Sin... Killian’s brother." she whispered.."He looked to be right around my age....Sin Vane."It made perfect sense that she hadn't recognized him immediately.' Aside from the portraits locked away in Killian’s private study, the Vane sons rarely mad

Sin released her wrist and Killian immediately released his brother's arm, his own hand dropping to Elara’s waist pulling her closer. Sin rubbed his forearm, his gaze flickering instinctively back to Elara. "Take one more glance at her." Killian said, "and I will personally make sure you never see out of those eyes again." Sin swallowed hard. The demeanor vanished instantly as he looked away. "I didn't know you were coming to the estate today." His empty eyes just stared unblinkingly at his brother. "Get your fucking self out of my sight." Sin gave a stiff nod. Turning, he retreated away without another word, escaping the suffocating aura of his older brother. Elara finally let out a breath, her body sagging slightly against Killian in relief. "Thank you–" "Why are you wearing this, Elara?" Killian gritted. Elara gulped, the darkness completely taking over his expression was terrifying. "I... I was just at the poolside." she breathed, suddenly aware of how exposed her bare

"That is enough." Killian gritted out. Damien merely remained seated, steepling his fingers with infuriating calm. "I am just saying, Killian." "Not a single word of this leaves this room." he snarled. Damien’s eyes darkened with amusement and malice. "Why bother hiding it? It is not as if she can leave you. She may play the part of a frightened little bird right now, but the girl is exceptionally intelligent. She is resilient. Depending on how deep her curiosity runs in this house... I have no doubt she will piece it all together sooner or later." Killian’s throat bobbed as a hard swallow betrayed the spike of panic beneath his rage. "She won't." Killian bit back, his voice tight. Damien’s eyes glinted with pure menace. "If you say so." he murmured, a smirk slowly spreading across his face. Killian held his father's gaze for one long, suffocating second. Every muscle in his body was coiled tight as he walked toward the doors. Wrapping his hand around the cold bra

"Elara!" Rosaline beamed, hurrying down the driveway. Before Elara could even fully step out of the passenger side, Rosaline was there, enveloping her in a deep hug. "Oh, I missed you so much, my dear." she cooed, unshed tears glistening in her eyes. Elara couldn't help but smile at the woman's theatricality. "I missed you too." But the driver's side door slamming shut instantly shattered the warm moment. Killian stalked around the hood of the car. As Rosaline happily looped her arm through Elara's, hurrying her through the door into the mansion, Killian’s jaw ticked as he followed them. "Stop clinging to my wife." he said. Reaching out, he effortlessly yanked Elara right out of his mother's grasp, pulling her flush against his own hard side and wrapping a arm around her waist. "I didn't even want to bring her here." he stated coldly, glaring down at his mother. "She insisted. That is the 'only' reason she is standing on this driveway." Rosaline merely sighed, eyeing her son

The head housekeeper halted. A smile touched the older woman's lips, but as her gaze flicked from Elara’s flushed face to the closed door of the master study directly behind her. "Mrs. Vane?" Mrs. Wilson asked.. "Whatever are you doing down in this wing? Do you need anything?" "Oh, hello, Mrs. Wilson. I was just feeling a bit restless upstairs. I realized I've never actually explored the villa properly, so I thought I'd take a little tour to cure my boredom." "If you ever wish to see the full extent of the estate, madam, you only need to ring for one of the maids. We would be more than happy to guide you.." Mrs. Wilson smiled. "No, that won't be necessary.." Elara replied, putting her smile firmly in place. "I think I prefer discovering things on my own. I'm fine, but thank you. Please, excuse me." Elara gave a tight nod and walked past her, forcing herself to keep her pace normal and unhurried as she headed back. Mrs. Wilson watched her retreat, she shrugged and walked away. ~♠

The moment they stepped out of the hotel and into the night air, a breeze hit them. Despite the long sleeves of her new gown, Elara couldn't suppress a shiver.Killian walked toward a midnight black Rolls-Royce idling at the curb. His driver had already pulled the door open, waiting with a bowed he

Elara gulped as she too, took a step backward."No. I don't need Roman's help either. I told you–I will handle this myself.""Handle it yourself?" Killian’s dark chuckle was devoid of humor. He took another step forward, "Every second you waste standing here playing the proud martyr, the Feds are f
