"WHAT?? WHY??" I screeched but both didn't bother to answer me as they entered in and pulled me out by hand and firmly caught my wrist.
What are they doing??
Detectives aren't suppose to just arrest me without any investigation..
I was shocked was an understatement because I was beyond shocked. I started to wiggle in their arms.
"You bitches, what are you all doing?" I snarled at them.
"Sorry Miss Nolan, you're not supposed to talk to us like that." The thin girl said and tightened her hold on my wrist.
"But atleast let me change my clothes." For god sake I was in my pajama.
" Daria!!^ prime prime the girls ignored me and called a woman in her early 40s as she came into view, she handed her something. That something was nothing but a tape, a freaking tape and a rope. And that girl stuck that tape to my mouth and tied my hands as she took my phone from me.
My precious phone..
I shot her a glare and tried to talk to her but all that came was a ugly muffling sounds from me.Daria gave me a sympathetic look and walked past me, into my apartment.
Why is she getting inside my apartment??
What's happening?
What are they doing here??
Are they some sought of a kidnappers.?.
OH God please help me!!
I prayed.
Daria came back with two suit cases in her hand, my eyes widened seeing those were my suit cases. Their surely kidnapping me.
NOO!!
Please god, knock some senses into them.
I'm just a poor girl.
The girls started dragging me towards the elevator as I wiggled in their arms.
Leave me you daughters of a bitch..
I wanted to yell but alas! I couldn't because of this freaking tape, which was plastered on my mouth.
I stomped on chubby girl's feet as she groaned in pain and harshly smacked my head.
"This girl!!" She glared at me.
"Calm down, Zoe." The thin girl said as we finally got inside the elevator.
Oh my pathetic life..
......
There were three sleek black expensive cars standing outside my apartment building and after seeing those cars I stopped wiggling because I was in too awe.
Is that here to escort me??
They don't want money from me as they are rich.
Then why the hell are they kidnapping me.?.
The girls pushed me into the middle car's back seat like a sack of potatoes and closed the door, the seat was too comfortable that my ass didn't get hurt.
I tried to open the door but it was baby locked.
Freaking baby locked..
Suddenly a deep voice shouted as I turned my head to the front seat and saw a handsome man sitting on the passenger seat. He rolled his window down and shouted.
"Zoe!! King wouldn't like this"
"Sorry sir, she was hard to manage. When we grabbed her, she started wiggling, shouting and she even cursed me and stomped on my feet. So we had plaster her mouth and tie her arms." Zoe, the chubby one said.
"It's okay." he waved a dismissive hand and the two girls walked by, Then he turned to me as I saw his face clearly, he was a total handsome with grey eyes, crooked nose and pink soft lips. His jet black hair was neatly combed and his prominent jaw was so sharp. He was well built, even though he was wearing a suit, I could make it out because of his strong arms. He was a perfect Adonis.
"I'm sorry for the inconvenience." He apologized and moved forward to remove the tape from my mouth.
But his handsomeness wasn't helping my situation, as soon as he unplastered me, I bursted out.
"You bastard!! How dare you kidnap me??" I gave a murderous glare to him.
"Oh woman!! Zoe was right. You've got a vulgar mouth." he shook his head in dismay before plastering my mouth again.
That bastard...
The chauffeur revved the engine before driving the car out of my apartment property, I kept staring at my apartment until it vanished.
My home..
I hope they have properly locked my apartment..
I was shaking and wiggling with uncontrollable rage. Fire was burning in my eyes as I glared at the handsome man and the chauffeur.
The handsome man saw me from rear view mirror and shook his head in dismay before turning around to face me.
"Promise me you won't shout or curse me." He said
The audacity this asshole got, how can I promise this asshole to not to curse him or shout at him while he's kidnapping me.
Freaking kidnapping me..
Son of a bitch..
Bastard..
My shoulder slumped in defeat as I sighed and shook my head in yes as I want my questions to be answered. His hand came towards my mouth and unplastered me.
I took a sharp intake of breath to control my boiling temper.
I asked my first question.
"Where are we going?" I asked calmly. "To Hawaii." he said with a smile.
"Why did you guys kidnap me?"
"Because kin....uhm." he pursed his lips and paused for a while before continuing. "I don't know." He shrugged.
He doesn't even know why he's kidnapping me..
Little cheap prick..
"Why are we going to Hawaii?" I asked my next question.
Again he pursed his lips, "I think she deserves to know" he muttered to himself but I heard it.
"To meet King." He replied. My blood was boiling like hell.
"Who is this fuc-" I began but he immediately interrupted me.
"Watch your mouth Miss Nolan." He said showing me the plaster.
Is he seriously threatening me by showing me that freaking tape..
I took a deep breath. "Okay, who is King?" I asked but I couldn't help the murderous glare I was giving him.
An amused smile formed on his beautiful lips. Why is this bastard smiling now??
"He is our mafia king"
"M-mafia king?" I stuttered. "do you belong to mafia?" Fear was evident in my voice.
Do mafia's really exist.?.
I was just out of criminal world, they do exist. It's not like I'm thinking about the werewolves.
Werewolves don't exist, right?
"Yes!" was his reply with amusement skating all over his expression.
Combination of fear and rage was mixing in me.
Be brave..
But bravery wasn't coming in me.
"Why are you taking me to him?" I asked in an wavery tone. "Because he wants to see you." "You idiot!! why he does want to see me?" I bursted out in fear and rage. Instead of replying, he glared at me and again showed me the plaster instead of a gun to threaten me.
As if that plaster is gonna scare me. But still I was scared.
"Okay." I sighed. "why do your king wants to see me?" I asked in a calm tone.
"That part.." he paused for a while and then continued "....will be explained by King."
"Is he..." I took a deep breath composing myself before continuing "going to kill me?" fear was evident in my face.
"Depends on King." he stated with a stupid smirk plastered on his handsome face.
But enough is enough, I took a lot more in for one day.
"You bastard, can't you just answer my damn questions properly." I snarled. His eyes widened before he said "You broke your promise Miss Nolan!!" He brought his hands towards my mouth but I moved back.
"Take away your filthy han-" I was cut off by him plastering my mouth. Hot tears rolled down my cheeks as realization dawned on me.
I'm gonna die..
Out of curiosity, I went towards the murdered spot and witnessed that murder and these mafia men saw me seeing them kill an innocent man. And now they want to erase every witness including me. I'm gonna die. I never thought that I would die this soon but unfortunately I'm going to die.
Why me? Why did I have to witness that bloody murder.
There's a saying, curiosity killed the cat. Because of my curiosity today I'm gonna die.
Now onwards there's no curiosity word in my vocabulary, it's vanished..
I sniffled.
Suddenly the car door opened and the two idiotic girls came and started dragging me, this time I didn't wiggle as there was no hope of me surviving. Again, I never thought that I would die this soon.
I sniffled.
EMILYThat evening, I returned to work, going about my shift at the hospital as though nothing had happened the night before, answering my coworkers' questions about the time I'd spent with my sister but not mentioning to them that I had stolen her identity and ended up at a party that was more amazing than any- thing I had ever experienced before.I ran through my list of patients, taking care of each one as needed. Each person I took care of only served as a reminder of the path I had chosen in life. Sure, I was pleased with my career, and I found it incredibly fulfilling what I could do in the lives of others.But, when it came down to it, I was feeling incredibly envious of my sister. I wanted her life. I wanted to be invited to those parties and to meet those men. I wanted to be the one everyone knew from the cover of a magazine. I wanted to be wanted once again. Try as I may, there was no way I could get Kyle Cun- ningham out of my mind, and each time his face appeared in the ba
KYLEI left early that morning, letting Emily sleep in. I didn't know much about her, and I didn't want to break the spell of the night we'd spent together by talking about things that we didn't need to talk about. All too often, I would wake up next to a woman only to hear how she was getting back at her ex-boyfriend, or that she was doing something to bring drama into some relationship she was having.There were those who were lonely, and those who merely wanted to get a taste of what it would be like to be with a man like me. Sure, they were all intended to be one-night stands on my end, too, and I hadn't ever formed any real opinion about any one of them. But, at the same time, I didn't want the woman cur- rently in my bed to wake up and tell me something about herself that would change the way I felt about her.That thought filled me with confusion.I liked doing what I did and splitting the next day. It was the ego boost I needed; a modicum of fulfillment in a life that I wasn't
."Maddie please, don't do this." He sighed raising his hands in the air in a defence position taking another step forward.I opened my mouth and met out a piercing scream, it lasted for around twenty seconds. Long enough for Dylan to back away from me and the lady around the till to come rushing around.It felt as if the next few moments were played out in slow motion the women had barley reached me when I heard the door of the cafe slam open the impact a lot larger than mine that it caused the glass on the door to shatter.My eyes shot to the doorway which was being took up by Fours large stance who's whole body was clenched his chest heaving up and down his golden eyes set on me before flickering to Dylan.My eyes widened as he took no time before he stalked over his long legs carrying him to my side where he reached out grabbing ahold of my arm pulling my into his large chest blocking my view from the rest of the cafe.I felt heat radiating of his body as his chest huffed and puff
EMILY"Now, tell me absolutely everything. I'm shocked that you even went, and I want to hear how you held up with the rest of the crowd." Maddy said as she walked in through the door.I smiled and shook my head, also unsure of how I had managed to do so well with the situation I had put myself in. I wouldn't have said that I'd handled things perfectly, but I had certainly held my own in the club. "You're not mad at me, are you?" I asked as the two of us walked into the kitchen.Maddy laughed."I have to admit, I thought it was a little strange when you hopped into myride but when you didn't answer my call, I figured you knew what you were doing." She shook her head with a mischievous grin and I smiled, too. I still felt the ex-citement in my chest, and I was eager to relate to her what had happened.Maddy took a seat at the counter and I handed her a glass of iced tea beforegrabbing my own glass and settling in to begin."Well, as you know, we arrived at that mansion up on the hil
EMILYlopened my eyes, slowly blinking as I looked around the room. I had a headache from the champagne the night before, and it took me a moment to remember where I was exactly. Slowly, the events of the previous day came to mind, and I began to piece together what today would hold.I remembered having the disagreement with my sister, and began searching for my phone. I then remembered that I had dropped my clutch out in the living room, and figured my phone must be inside. Looking around the room, I could see that Kyle was already gone, having gotten dressed while I was still asleep.I hurried out to the living room in nothing but my underwear and, sure enough, found my phone inside my clutch. Kyle had been kind enough to pick it up off the floor and leave it sitting on the coffee table for me, and I ignored the feeling of embarrassment that threatened to swell up in me.I was a grown woman, and I was allowed to do anything I wanted-includinghaving a one-night stand with a person t
KYLEIhad to admit, I wasn't entirely sure what had come over me. I'd had many one- night stands in my life. In fact, it was my preferred way of doing things— get the girl in bed, have fun, then get away from her as fast as possible. Miss Shadows, on the other hand, had piqued my interest.I hadn't had any real expectations when I'd taken her up to the party upstairs, but seeing her reaction first to those who were enjoying each other, then seeing her in bed with me, sparked an interest in me that I had never experienced be- fore. I had no intention of committing to her or making any kind of promises that I would ever see her again, but I did wish to get to know her body a littlebetter and that wouldn't be possible if we stayed at the Gathering. There was a little voice inside my head that warned me to be careful taking any woman home, especially one like Emily. Not only did I feel a connection to her, but I could sense that she was feeling a connection to me.It had become easy for
