ADELINA'S POV

It looks like Mikhail and Lucien might be at each other's throats any moment from now. My eyes fell on Braelyn, she was the one Mikhail spoke about. Her face was calm, and there was subtle nervousness in her gaze

Lucian suddenly laughed, "You guys can't take a joke. I am not the type of person who will do such a thing, at least not in front of Braelyn. Her eyes don't need violence." He carelessly said something that ticked Mikhail.

Mikhail glanced away, then clutched his glass before staring aimlessly at the empty glass. What was that all about? Ivan cleared his then continued. Xander chose, truth.

"If you can ever change something from the past, what will it be?" Ivan asked and Xander got into deep thoughts.

"It's hard to choose if I can't stop Amelia from committing suicide, then maybe I would stop myself from leaving the house on Karis's birthday because of jealousy, but regardless, I am happy with the way my life is now." Karis held his hand and they lock

  • Trapped With The Ruthless Alpha: The Heiress Vendetta   165 - Truth or dare

    ADELINA'S POV The main game had started, " Truth or dare, what is it going to be?" Ivan's eyes were on me. My heart skipped a beat, "dare." I blurted out without thinking much.. Ivana laughed then gave Mikhail a glance. "You are shaking Adelina but there is no need to be scared. I am saving you for last." He said then sat up. He was toying with everyone, giving the sense of thrill the game needed. "I will be starting with the ladies who didn't play the cards, then go to the men in the order room of how they folded ", Ivan explained his own rules. That way the order was set leaving me for last. Ivan started with Braelyn, the lady that was with Lucien. She had eye-catching features, hair as black at night with striking green eyes, a rare combo. Braelyn was around the same age as Karis, and without a doubt, I was the youngest person here. "Lynn truth or dare?" He asked, she didn't think twice and chose the truth. I wondered if Ivan was going to ask a crazy question, his questio

  • Trapped With The Ruthless Alpha: The Heiress Vendetta   164 - A losing game

    ADELINA'S POV Ivan Orlov, one of the most unpredictable people in the world as my father described him. Dad avoided dealing with the Orlov family and, most of the time, completely withdrew once he heard Ivan was involved. "Do you know how that game ended?" He asked me with a smirk playing on his lips. My eyes glanced over to Mikhail for a short moment, trying to see if he had any idea. Even if Mikhail did he would never tell me. I turned back to focus on the game. Ivan gave me a look, it wasn't threatening, just amused. "Will you tell me if I ask?" I threw the question back to him. "You will find out soon." Ever so unpredictable. I was scared, nothing could shake me. My cards were perfect. I already had the game in the bag from the moment I saw those queens. Ivan was watching my every mood, he was trying to read me from the slightest give out, curious what I’d do. I placed my bracelet into the pot and nodded once. “Let’s see it then,” he said. "Of course, it was a fun game

    ADELINA'S POV The air felt tense, the tension was crawling over my skin but I could handle it. "Now that everything is done, can we have a lady share the cards?" Benji requested, and Karis agreed to do so. "I can do that." She chimed in accepting the deck of cards. Her hands were swift as she shuffled the cards under everyone's eyes. The maid moved away, sharing some drinks and finger snacks, just to get everyone into the mood, just before the game. Then she started sharing the cards among the players, Benji, Ivan, Mikhail, Casper, Xander, Lucien and me the only girl brave enough to go against the men although from the rules the other Ladies technically had already lost but I was sure whoever was going to win won't give them any crazy dare or truth. Karis dealt the cards with that calm, graceful flick of her wrist, her polished fingers moving like she’d done it a hundred times. Her eyes were teasing, mocking everyone at the table. "I hope you guys are lucky. My

  • Trapped With The Ruthless Alpha: The Heiress Vendetta   162 - Game of poker

    ADELINA'S POV I knew the game was going to be twisted but stripping that was beyond me. There were some gasps, especially from the other ladies. They probably didn't expect this twist. Karis's glare said everything. I think she was more upset than Mikhail "Unfortunately I am not good at poker." She said, "That's fine. Xander is an excellent player. If you are uncomfortable with it, you can let this pass, but you are free to observe ." Benji, who turned to the mediator's explanation, kind of made everyone relax a bit. Though I know most of them want to play. "What are the rules?" Mikhail asked, I was expecting him to still oppose the idea because every part of his body said he hated this game. Benji smiled. "I am glad you are coming around the rules are simple. It will be a regular poker game, but instead of chips, we are going to bargain with clothing items from watches down to undies, depending on how crazy you are." He teased, Karis's face twisted hearing his explanation.

    ADELINA'S POV "Wait, Mikhail, you finally have a serious girlfriend." The statement made my stomach churn. The word ' serious girlfriend' explained a lot of things about Mikhail. Did they know he had a fiancée? I glanced around the room, noticing the person who spoke; he was also a looker with caramel brown hair and hazel eyes that glimmered with mischief. Beside him was a lady, she held a sophisticated presence around her and was the second person I had met with striking emerald green eyes like mine. "You are always the loudest in the room, Lucien." Mikhail sneered. "I prefer to be called Killian in public." Lucien chimed in. The room was warm and quiet, lit by the soft glow of the fireplace and a few low lamps. It wasn’t decorated at all, but it didn’t need to be. The light walls, rich leather chairs, and soft rug underfoot gave the space a private, comfortable feel. The kind of place where only a few were allowed in.There were already four inside, all w
