Still Drakes POVMy eyes widened in shock when I heard her say those words, I pushed her aside and I jumped down the stairs in one swift move, then I flung the laptop far away from us. “Hit that red button on the wall, then go up to the room and shut the door, I need to sort this out.” I instructed her fiercely. She seems to be in a trance, but she complied with my instructions. She hit the alarm button to alert everyone in the building of a probable danger, then she went back into the room and shut the door. I didn’t turn back until I heard the lock click shut, then I picked up my phone and got ready for business.I’m sure that everyone in this house got the memo, they know exactly what to do in situations like this. Even the maids and other domestic staff were duly informed. I guess it’s only Mia that is still left in the dark, that is why I needed to yell out instructions to her again. Once this alarm goes off, every one of them, I mean all domestic staffers is expected to go into

Austin’s POVI gave her an easy way to reach me, and I asked her not to use the distress button unless she has no other choice. So when my phone blasted with the sound of the alarm tone, I knew immediately that it was from her, and I knew something was terribly wrong, or else she would never have pushed that button because she knows I’m going to kill her for disturbing me unnecessarily. I picked up my laptop and connected my phone to the laptop. I need to use the signal from the distress button to triangulate her location and find out exactly where she is and what she is up to.I managed to pull up her location, I discovered that she is currently at one of the Osborne hotels. I called in my tech guy, and I asked him to have into the hotel’s cameras so I can see everything happening around her. I almost smashed my laptop in anger when I saw her sitting in a restaurant with two guys who look like bouncers. From the look on her face, I can tell that she doesn’t want to be there, they ar

Still Drakes POV“Get your filthy hands away from me, you lying cheat!” She yelled furiously, shrugging my hands off roughly. That was weird, I mean, she was cool with me before I left right?We made passionate love to each other last night, she was so perfect, so amazing. I know I didn’t spend more time with her after that but had to sort out this business with Riley, I had to make sure that he doesn’t get us both in trouble. I was out all night and when I got back home, I still worked on my laptop and hers. I did all this to make sure that she doesn’t fall into any of their trap. I’m trying to shield her from a harsh reality, why the hell is she treating me this way, is this what I get for working so hard to protect her and my family?“I'm sorry I left you alone for so long, I had to take care of a few things. I won’t do it again, my love. I will never leave you alone and lonely for so a long time. It won’t happen again, I promise.” I pleaded softly, wrapping my hand around her hips

Mia’s POV“How did you find out about Rosalie?Where the hell is she, what did she say to you, did she try to hurt you?” he asked me in a panic, pulling me closer to examine my body for injuries or scars. I shrugged him off, putting some distance between us. I couldn’t help wondering why he panicked when I told him about her. Why on earth did he think that she had hurt me, is she a lunatic?“By the way, I thought I asked you to stay in here until I get back, why did you come down to meet Rosalie?What if she had hurt you?Worse yet, what if she was lying about knowing me, what if it was a plot to get you down here? You could have been hurt Mia, and that is why you have to follow my instructions always. When I tell you to do something, I expect you to follow my instruction, I thought we’d talked about this!” he scolds me angrily. I almost laughed at his smart move, what the hell does he take me for?“Is that all you have to say?For fucks sake, I just told you that your ex-girlfriend

Still Mia’s POV“Are you ready to listen to me?” he asked me, smirking at me.“Let me out, Drake. I don’t want to talk right now.” I responded weakly. I walked up to him, trying to get the key from his hand, but he kept taking it out of my reach, making me jump continuously as I tried to reach for it. I kept struggling to reach for the key, I did not realize that he was tricking me and luring me into his arm. Before I realized what was happening, I was backed to the wall, with his hand wrapped around my waist while the other hand held the key high above my head. He had a mischievous smile playing on his face as he looked down at me, smiling.“What would it take to make you trust me, how do I earn your trust?” he asks me, sounding so calm, caressing my cheeks. I couldn’t resist his touch, I unwillingly leaned into his warm touch as a soft moan escaped my lips. I don’t have an answer to his question, I wasn’t even thinking about his question, I melted in his arms and I let him hug me t
