The Devil Who Claimed Me (M x M) CHAPTER 101
He lets out a strangled cry.Disgust crawls through me the second my hand touches him, even through my gloves.I release him immediately like his skin burns.Victor turns shakily toward me.“W-Who are you?” he stammers. “Did Gerald send you?”My lips twist. “I have no idea who Gerald is.”I raise my gun slowly, leveling it at him, the silencer gleaming beneath the dim light.“But if Gerald is the grim reaper…” I tilt my head. “Then I guess you can say he sent me.”His face drains of color.“H-how much did they pay you?” he blurts, his voice reeking of desperation. “I’ll double it… No, I’ll triple it.”“I don’t need your money,” I sneer.I step closer slowly.“People like you always think you can get away with anything because you’re rich.” My voice lowers. “Like money somehow places you above consequences.”River’s voice cuts sharply through the in-ear.“Nikolai. Stop playing with him. We’re running out of time.”Victor reaches into his pocket with shaky hands and pulls out a gun.“Th

NIKOLAII start making my way off the roof.River’s voice filters through the comms. “Remember to enter through the East entrance. And Nikolai?”I step backward toward the fire escape.“Yeah?”“Do a clean job. We don’t need anything traced back to us.”I smirk coldly. “I always do.”Then I jump.My boots hit the lower fire escape with barely a sound before I descend rapidly toward the alley below.I start moving fast, focusing on disposing of as many guards as I can.One guard rounds the corner near the east entrance.He barely has time to register my presence before I grab him by the throat and slam him silently into the wall.His mouth opens in a silent scream as he falls to the ground.I check his pulse. It’s faint but still there.Good. We don’t need to leave a lot of dead bodies behind.The less messy this is, the better.“Jesus Christ,” Caleb mutters through the comms.“What?” I ask calmly as I drag the body behind a dumpster.“It’s insane how you manage to do that so casually.”

NIKOLAIAnticipation swirls through me as I watch the activity below from my spot at the edge of the rooftop where I crouch near the ledge, one gloved hand resting against the concrete.This is the part I like the most. The waiting just before the true action begins.It makes me a little giddy just thinking about it.Below me, headlights cut through the darkness.I check the time on my wristwatch. 11:08pm. He’s eight minutes past schedule but that’s fine.The most important thing is that he’s here.Two black SUVs roll toward the warehouse entrance before coming to a stop.I watch calmly as a man steps out of the front seat and opens the back door of one of the SUVs.Victor Hale steps out in an expensive charcoal suit, one hand adjusting the cufflinks as he walks toward the warehouse confidently.Disgust swirls through me.I can’t stand men like him. Men that look polished on the outside while hiding rot underneath their skin.“Target just entered the building,” I murmur into the in-ea
The Devil Who Claimed Me (M x M) CHAPTER NINETY-EIGHT
JULIAN Nikolai hesitates as he watches me. He must see something in my expression because he adds, “It’s not that bad. You don’t have to feel sorry for me. At least, I know a little about my heritage.” “Heritage?” “Yeah. I’m Russian. Or partly, at least. My mother is Russian while my father is American.” I snap my fingers. “I knew it. Or at least I suspected. Because of your name.” I lean across the table. “So can you speak Russian?” “No.” I deflate a little at that. He raises an eyebrow, noticing my reaction. “You look weirdly disappointed.” “Well, yeah. How come you don’t speak Russian?” “Because it’s a language I don’t give a fuck about,” he says, his voice tight. “Why should I care to learn a language spoken by someone who didn’t stay long enough to teach me?” For the first time since he’s started talking about this, he finally shows a reaction, a muscle ticking in his jaw. But just as fast as it comes, he exhales and his expression evens out again. “Forget about tha

JULIAN A few minutes later, the boat slows to a stop near the middle of the lake. Everything around us is quiet except for the gentle sound of water. I frown. “Why are we stopping?” A thought hits me and I gasp. “Wait, did the engine die? Are we stuck?!” “Relax,” Nikolai says immediately. “I stopped it myself. Fuck, I had no idea you were this melodramatic.” “What am I supposed to think when the boat stops in the middle of the ocean?” “You’re supposed to trust me.” He holds out a hand. “Come on.” I take it without thinking. “Where are we going?” “The upper deck.” I didn’t think it was possible but the upper deck is even more beautiful than anything I’ve seen so far. A small table is set near the railing, understated but expensive in the way everything about this boat is. Dark plates sit neatly on a crisp linen, silverware catching the soft glow of the lights. Two crystal glasses rest near the center beside a chilled bottle tucked into a silver ice bucket, condensation slidin

JULIAN With that, he swerves the car into a dirt path off the road. It’s at that moment that I really begin to wonder if he really means to kill me in the woods after all, despite what he says. But then, a few minutes later, he slows down in front of a gated entrance. The gates slide open automatically the second the headlights hit them, revealing a narrow road that curves toward the water. The dock comes into view gradually. Soft golden lights line the wooden walkway, reflecting against the dark surface of the ocean below in broken streaks of gold and silver, the water moving lazily against the posts beneath the dock. A yacht sits near the far end of the private dock, sleek and looking impossibly polished and expensive beneath the lights. I turn to Nikolai as he parks the car and cuts off the engine. I barely contain my excitement when I say, “Are we going to ride that?” “Obviously. Why else would I bring you here?” With that, he opens the car door and gets out. I seethe

JULIANToday is March 13th. It’s a day I both dread and love.My fingers tremble slightly as I bring up the contact on my phone and dial the number.I bring the phone to my ear, listening to the dial tone as it rings and rings.I bite my thumb nervously.For a moment, I expect her not to pick up.

NIKOLAIThere’s a spark to him now as he talks about Theo, a fondness in his eyes. He almost looks like he’s…My grip tightens on his shoulder again.Those dark thoughts of possessiveness well up in me for the second time.I don’t care what feelings he has for his friend, whether they are platonic

JULIANI roll pasta onto my fork for the hundredth time. I haven’t been able to actually eat any of it since I sat down at the table.The cafeteria buzzes loudly. Students crowd the tables, voices overlapping into one giant blur of noise, trays clattering and chairs scraping against the floor.“Eve
The Devil Who Claimed Me (M x M) CHAPTER EIGHTY-SIX
JULIAN The possessive words send a dark, forbidden thrill through me. The weird part is I love when he speaks like this. When he acts like he’ll never let me go even if I ask him to. His words would freak out a normal, sane person but to me? They’re like gasoline to fire. I smile widely, despit
