Lindsay's POVI stared at my food, too bored to eat. Asher spoke with my parents and they paid rapt attention. No one cared to notice if I was eating or not. Not that I was affected. I just felt they should at least show a little bit of concern. My parents loved Asher so much that if they had to choose between the both of us, I was pretty sure they would go for Asher. He had what they wanted and that was money and power.I couldn't help but ask. What the fuck did they need his money for? They were already old and had enjoyed their lives. The least they could do was let me enjoy my life too.“Mum you aren't eating?" Leia was the first to point out and I was snapped back to reality.“Yes darling you aren't," my mum said after her and I was forced to roll my eyes. I bet if Leia hadn't said anything, they would keep on talking to Asher and treating me like I didn't matter. I was their daughter for crying out loud.“I don't feel like it"“Is it the food? Should I tell Rebecca to get you so
Lindsay POV When I heard the front door close, my heart skipped a beat. I knew my parent were gone and now Asher could do anything he wanted. The door to Leia's room was locked, but I was still trembling. He had keys to all the rooms in the house, so the door couldn't protect me.Leia was already asleep in my arms. I tucked her carefully into her bed and I slipped off to stand behind the door.Nothing happened for the first few minutes, but I then started hearing footsteps coming upstairs. My heartbeat picked up pace instantly. It was so loud that I could hear it.Tears trickled down my eyes as I wrapped my hand tightly around the rod in my hands.The footsteps kept coming closer. With each thump, it felt as though my life slowly slipped away from me. I was so scared that I couldn't hold on to the rod properly. It was all sliding down my sweaty palm.The footsteps stopped at the front of the door and I held the rod firmly, waiting for him to come in so I could end him once and for al
Lindsay POV “Why didn't daddy take me to school today?” Leia asked as I stared down at her with my hand wrapped around hers."You heard your father. He has to be at work today”"Don't you have to be at work too?“"It's fine honey”. I smiled at her even though my cheeks hurt so bad. It was bruised, thanks to Asher. I had to apply tons of foundation to it. The only problem I had was how I was going to hide it from Shaun. He had always been the observative one."Alright say bye-bye to mummy,” I said to Leia who was already running to her class. She turned around and gave me a hug. "That's enough sweetheart” I kissed her on her cheek and off she went.I was about to leave too, but my name was called."Mrs. Thompson” I turned around to see who it was.I hadn't met that woman before, but that didn't stop me from smiling. I was always so quick to smile. That was to my disadvantage that day because my cheeks were starting to hurt so badly. It was as if the skin of my cheeks tore each time
Shaun's POVI sighed in frustration as I leaned back on the couch, staring at Luca like he was the cause of my problems when in real sense, he wasn't.“How does buying a school benefit me?"“To think of it, your father is right. It will get the police off your back. The Marco family has had a clean record with the police until the act you pulled off recently""So buying a damn school takes them off my back?““It gives them the impression that your motive is clean"“And buying a school doesn't mean you have to be the owner" I turned to look at my brother, Pablo as he walked down the stairs to the sitting room."I feel exhausted by even thinking about it”"see it as Dad's way of saving your ass,” he said, walking towards the wine stand to get a drink."I don't fucking need that” "You are so impossible”"For all I know, Francesco should be the one heading all this"“You want to quit?" “I didn't say that"“Anyway" Pablo filled his cup halfway with wine and turned to look at me. “Frances
Lindsay POV.“What were you doing at that school's meeting today?". Shaun asked the moment he opened the door for me to get in. He didn't even notice how much I dressed up for him. I even had to risk getting caught by Asher. If I hadn't been smart enough to slip away without him noticing, I would have been more than dead. “Well, it's nice to meet you too Shaun," I said in sarcasm as I walked inside the house fully. “I was dropping off my sister's child and I had to stay for the meeting"I had to lie. Saying the truth was not an option.“I was surprised when I saw you"“Don't you own jexs? What do you need the school for".“It's complicated" With the way, his face changed when he said those words, I could tell he was annoyed. He settled on one of the couches and I sat down next to him. “You look tired" “And frustrated" he sighed, leaning his head on the edge of the couch “I feel suffocated. It's as if everyone is looking up to me not to mess things up, but that's so hard”"It can't
LindsayThe way he slept peacefully warmed my heart. Staring at him was something I couldn't get tired of. His full lashes, his angelic face, and his full lips were all so inviting. I couldn't resist the urge. I ran my finger on his lips, biting my lips as I felt the softness of his.I wanted to take his lips in mine, but at the same time, I didn't want him to wake up. I just wanted to stay there and continue admiring such a fine work of perfection.“How long are you going to do that?" he flung his eyes and my soul leaped out of my body.I smacked him on the chest. “Don't do that" I scowled at him and he laughed. “How long have you been awake?"“When I felt you move"“Come on" I scoffed. “You can't be that observative"“Unfortunately for you, I am. And why were you staring at me?"He asked and I rolled my eyes as I turned my face to the other side. He knew why I was, he just wanted me to say it.“Lindsay" he called out and I looked at him once more, but he turned my face back to where
LindsayOne kiss on my neck and I was gone. I closed my eyes as I savored the moment. Shaun was at the back, planting kisses on my body while the water from the shower caressed both our skin.He whispered in my ears. “Are you sore?" He asked and I shook my head even though I was a little bit sore from the sex we had not too long ago.“good. Prepare yourself, you will get sore after this. I'll make sure of that” he said and I giggled."Is that a threat?”"No, just a good way of marking my own” as he said those words, his hand slipped into my cunt and I sucked in air.He turned me around to look at him as he fingered my cunt. He inserted the second finger and then the third, stretching out my hole real good."Look at me Lindsay” he ordered and I looked at him."I like honesty and transparency when I'm working with people,” he said those words while he fingered me silly. I was losing my mind at the same time, I tried to process what he meant."Wh.. what Is that supposed to mean?” I stutt
Shaun's POVThat didn't look like an injury someone would get from a fall. She just lied to me in my face. I had punched a lot of people and that looked like a really hard one.I felt a sting in my heart. I also felt furious that someone would dare lay their hands on her. I just needed the truth from her and the person was going to go down, but she didn't want to let it out.As I gazed at her, I realized, I didn't even know anything about her. She was like a mystery that came into my life out of nowhere. Her eyes held a lot of pain each time I looked at them, but she didn't want to spill them out.I didn't know where she lived. I noticed how much she panicked each time I brought up the idea of dropping her off. I realized the only thing I knew was where she was from. I wanted to know more about her. It was selfish to think that way because she also didn't know anything about me and I wasn't ready to let in on the dark details of my life.I wanted her to stay with me. If possible even
