The Vow I Never Took It Isn't Over
David POVI lean back in the driver’s seat, one hand drumming the steering wheel, the other turning my phone over and over. The screen is dark, but I can almost see her face there. Lena.It took weeks to find Nathan's new safehouse, and the bastard just hid it in plain sight. I almost laugh out loud, but when I remember the time and resources wasted, the laughter dies on my lips. The compound is well secured. I try to count the security, but I stop when I count above fifty. It's a fortress. For all of Sebastian's prancing, he and his brother are crazy alike. I settle to wait. Sebastian's words from our meeting this morning drifts into my mind. “I've gone forward with the first part of my plan. All you have to do is get Lena alone.” His lips curved in a condescending smile. “That shouldn't be too hard for you, should it?”My knuckles whiten as I clench my fists around the steering wheel. How dare that fucking bastard? Because we hav
The Vow I Never Took I Couldn't Think Straight
Nathan POV I race through the hallway, Han and Adrian running behind me. I catch my reflection in the glass-panneled walls. I look like a man possessed. Shit! I can't think. Can't even plan. I pull my phone out of my pocket, and sure as day, I can't get a single bar. Whatever Sebastian did to lock down the building, it's also affecting the connectivity up here. Despite myself, I can't help but be impressed by this stroke. I push the door to Controls, stepping in. My breath is ragged from my run, and when my employees see me, their eyes widen in fear before it settles into recognition. “One of you. Explain. Now,” I growl, stepping closer. Adrian and Han arrive as the IT guy begins to explain. “Sir, I still don't understand exactly how it happened. This is custom-built malware. Sophisticated stuff. It’s designed to stay hidden, and it’s wrapped in multiple layers of obfuscation. I’ve been diggin

The Vow I Never Took A Picture Of Them Both
Lena POVGrace snorts. “You've been in bed with him all day. You can't possibly be missing him. It's barely been 3 hours.”I smile, ignoring my best friend. Willow has us on the roof, tending to tomatoes. The smell of wet earth is calming, and sunlight streams from above, filtering through our shade. “You don't miss Adrian?” I ask, my tone as innocent as I can make it. Grace's jaws snap shot. She opens them to say something, but her mouth only moves, forming words, but not saying them. She gives up eventually. “How long?”I laugh. “How long have I known? Jesus, Grace. You're my best friend and I'm not stupid. I see the way you look at him. And the way he looks at you.”Grace doesn't say anything, turning to transplant a vegetable into a new pot. But I can see the blush staining her neck. “I wanted to tell you,” she says finally, sighing. “Huh-uh.”She winces. “I've been a terrible friend.”I shrug. I don't think so, but Grace looks like she has more to say, so I don't want to inter
The Vow I Never Took You Know What You Are Doing
Nathan POVAs I walk into the familiar premises of my office building. Sleek glass panelling, air-conditioned hallways, the soft whirring of ventilators. It's like coming home after a long time. Heads swivel to watch me. My employees, cleaners, reporters, board members, investors, fans, they're all here. Their looks are looks of combined disbelief and surprise. None of them believed I would be here. Not in a million years. I feel immediately self-conscious without Lena by my side. She'd wanted to come, but my grandmother and I refused. I didn't think I could keep her safe here in this den of traps and vipers. “Who's going to keep you safe, Nathan?” she yelled at me, angrily wiping tears out of her eyes. I didn't have an answer then, but I don't have an answer now. Adrian tails beside me, his eyes hidden behind dark frames. He has an earpiece in his ears, and he watches around us with keen wariness. He hasn't said anything about my decision to come here. Adrian has always been loyal
The Vow I Never Took Caught Off Guard
Nathan POV I'm sitting in front of the large TV, and my white knuckled fist wrapped around the remote. I can hear the plastic groaning in my grip, feel it bending and breaking slowly. Then it snaps. I feel a slight sting on my palm, but through the haze of my anger, I don't feel it. It's a distant sensation, barely worth my notice. Richard fills my view. He's wearing a smart suit, one that probably costs a small car. His hair is immaculately done, and there's a gleam in his eyes. A small content smile plays on his lips as he speaks to the reporter. “Nathan is and has always been my son. I love him more than anything in this world.” He sighs. “But the truth has to be said. He's bad for the company. You've followed the news, haven't you? Stocks are dipping, the investors and pundits are confused about what's happening, and even our employees want a bit of assurance. But where is Nathan? He's holed up somewhere, probably not giving a fuck about any of us, if you'll pardon my language.
