Ara was trembling like leaf. Regret washed over her immediately as soon as her senses came rushing back. But more than regret, she felt dread. dark cold dread. Her eyes were wide open just like her mouth. She was astounded at her own action. How did it happen? Her eyes watered immediately. Her time had come. She already knew this will not end well for her. She shouldn't have raised her hand, and that too on him. The man who kills left, right, and center without an ounce of remorse.  "I..I...am sorry," she stuttered weakly in her trembling voice. He turned his face towards her.Her racing heart dropped to the pit of her stomach when she looked into his brutal cold eyes. The

She turned around and gave him a pleading look. His features remained tight, showing his determination.  " Don't make me tell you twice, Bella," he gave her a warning glare while folding his arms. He was too intimidating to oppose. She gulped and unenthusiastically turned towards the bed. Taking hesitant steps, she reached the bed, completely oblivious to his hungry gaze on her ass. She sat on the bed and couldn't help but take another cautionary glance at the stuff. She turned alert when he started taking predatory steps towards her. He seized a remote from the table and pressed a button. The drapes curtaining the glass wall started to draw away, revealing a breath-taking sight of the Eiffel tower.    She took a deep, shaky breath when he came closer and grabbed the blindfold from the bed. His face held no expression."Wha..what will you do with it?" her alarmed gaze refused to move from the red silk blindfol

After getting ready, Ara went to Angela's room to wake her up.After getting her bathed and ready, she carried her to the kitchen. Angela was hell excited to see Paris. Ara made a sandwich for Angela and herself.She made her sit in the chair and placed her plate in front of her. Ara was talking non-stop about the places in Paris she had seen in her book. Ara sat across from her and they both started munching on their sandwich. "Do you know I can see Eiffel tower from my window," Angela told her. Ara smiled and feigned excitement. "Uhu," Ara said while taking a bite of her sandwich. "Yes, and it looks so big, so t

Ara was nervously pacing in her room, thinking about what was going to happen tonight, when someone knocked on her door. She halted and turned towards the door to open it. She found Aimee standing in front of her. She had a package in her hand. "This is for you," she spoke in her thick French accent while extending the large packet to her. "Me?" Ara took the package from her and ran her fingers on it with a confused expression. "Sir sent it for you," she pushed her specs up her nose and replied with a polite smile.Ara's finger froze when she said that. She looked up at Aimee and gave her a forced smile. The girl smiled back and turned to leave. Ara closed the door and walked back to her bed. She unchained the package and what she found inside made her eyes shine with recognition. There was a beautiful gown inside it. Breathtakingly beautiful. Precisely, the one th

Killian got down the car and straightened his jacket with poise. The officers moved along with him as he started striding towards the department. Killian halted when a raindrop hit his face. He looked up at the black sky. It had started to drizzle. Out of nowhere, Bella crossed his mind. He wondered if she had reached home or not. He took a glance at his wristwatch. Twenty minutes had passed by. She must be home by now. He squared his shoulder and started walking toward the department in all his confidence. The men followed him. His demeanor and confidence had started to perturb them.The people around threw glances at Kilian as he got inside. He seemed unaffected by curious gazes. The officers took him to a room. Killian took a seat in a chair as the officer left to inform h
