Con Artist のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 21 - チャプター 30

I sat in Michaels office feeling grungy and annoyed. I had been feeling this way since Sunday and Michael wasn't helping.Neither was Adam with his constant mood, no matter how many times I explained that I was drunk and I thought I had been calling him, he still couldn't get over the fact that I mistakenly called Theo.Yes, I admit that I was glad for the comfort I got then, but I didn't mean it to be him, either way, I was in distress and it so happened that Theo was there."Hope I didn't keep you long," Michael said as he entered his office taking off his jacket and throwing it on a couch. "What do you have for me?" He clapped his hands smiling smugly and I sat up straight repeating everything Theo said I should say."Theo is planning a heist, a huge one. I don't know

I had decided to sleep at Theo's house today, solely for the reason that Cassie actually came to fetch Jameson really late and I didn't have the energy to call for an Uber and I knew that Travis will probably be at our apartment.It was late at night and I was finally getting ready for bed, pulling back the covers. I heard the door slam close and I immediately jumped out the bed, grabbing my trusted knife, I held it behind my back and I made my way out the room to see who it was. I know it's the stupidest thing I could ever do because this is Theo's house and there were guards around but my curiosity got the best of me."What are you doing?" I heard his voice behind me and I screamed, turning around and raising my hand to slap him but he grabbed it and pushed down the knife that was in my hand. "Are you fucking crazy Xania!" He yelled and I kept on screaming.

Theo"You've been avoiding me...why?" I watched her chest heave up and down as she slowly caught her breath after being scared by me.Her wonderful brown eyes stared at me pissed, confused but the excitement was visible. Her bottom lip was tucked in between her teeth and her chest was pressed against mine as I held her against the door captive so that she could answer my questions.She released an exaggerated nervous laugh shaking her head at me, "What are you talking about! I haven't been avoiding you," people who didn't know Xania as well as I've come to know her would say she was confident as she answered, but I could see the little flaws in her answer.Her left eye slightly twitched, her smile held the wildest smile I had ever seen on her and her right foot shifted twice to the left and o

"I now pronounce you husband and wife, you may kiss the bride!" Cheering and clapping echoed through the church, whistles were heard and we all stood up to congratulate the newlyweds. I couldn't ignore the jealousy that coursed through my veins but what was I expecting.Theo, with his signature stoic expression, pressed a kiss on her lips, it was so different from ours. It was like he wasn't interested and he couldn't wait to get it over and done with. Walking down the stairs, he held his hand out for Cassandra and she delicately put her hand in his.We carried on clapping as we watched them walk back down the aisle to the exit. There was no reception event waiting at a hotel or different location. This was it, this was their wedding."Xania, tell me something," Adam said in my ear as we walked out of the church tog

"It's complicated," Theo said after I asked him why he was here with me instead of Cassie on their wedding night. I didn't question him any further."Okay, well I have to go now," I sat on my knees and Theo's eyes immediately latched on my chest and he licked his lips before his eyes met mine sparkling with mischief."Do you, really?" He asked sitting up and stretching out his arm to grab me but I pulled away."Yes, I have an appointment," I said getting off the bed and he pulled me back onto the bed wrapping his arms around my body making me giggle and try to ignore the violent beating of my heart against my chest."With who?" he asked in my ear, his hands resting on my stomach moving up and down from right under my boobs to my hip bone. My breathing was erratic and my
