Leia's POVRichard wound his hand around my wrist and pulled me to God knows where and I couldn't stop him. Each time I tried to struggle, I ended up staggering, giving him a reason to hold me closer to himself.“Let... Me go..." I yelled but my voice came out in a whisper.He led me far away from the party and with the way he moved, it was obvious he knew exactly where he was taking me. “S... Stop..." What was his name again, I had forgotten.His grip loosened around my wrist and I fell to the floor. Even in my drunken state, I tried to crawl out_ a stupid idea, but that was the only thing that came to my distorted head. He grabbed me roughly by the arm and continued to drag me away. We got to one of the castles and it was deserted. He led me into one of the rooms and on getting there he tossed me on the bed. It felt as though the whole world spinned as I landed roughly on the bed. I stood up very fast_ too fast. I fell to the floor just as my legs hit the ground.He jacked me up

Leia’s POV, The chirping sound of birds made me realize it was morning. The golden rays of the sun reflected into the room making it beautiful. ‘Beautiful’ is that adjective I never thought I would ever use because nothing has ever been beautiful in my life but Yesternight, Jericho introduced me to a side I never knew existed in our dark world. Everything was just... colorful. A smile played on my face as I remained under the sheets with Jericho and I cuddling. His arms were wrapped around my waist and my eyes were fixed on his sleepy face. I hadn’t taken my eyes off him throughout the night and even now. I just couldn’t. His sleeping composition looks so much like a fine work of art that I couldn't resist, his gentle snores were like my favorite music. I reached out my hands and began running my index from his forehead down to his high bridge nose and when my eyes rested on his lips. I wanted so badly to kiss the hell out of him. I don’t want to see this as an obsession but

Luca’s P.O.V, I had been waiting for just one thing all through my life. I knew Alfonso was going to trust me with this and he did not disappoint. My lukewarm life was about to get interesting.I clenched my fists as the pilot announced that we had arrived in Dallas. I was running out of patience. I’d never been a man of patience. As soon as the plane landed, I dashed out like a stag, no need to wait for the guards to open the door for me because I came alone. I headed towards the white limo which was already stationed for me. I brought out my phone and different shits appeared on the screen but I was in search of just one notification. I’d sent a message to the fucker as soon as Alfonso gave me the order to finish him up.It may sound absurd, but I’d sent the fucker a message to announce my visit. That is me, it's how I operate, it’s my way of invoking fear on my prey, making them an easy target. the Message from the bastard read. I replied to his message and I gnashed my t

Alex's POVIt wasn't too long before I discovered that Jericho wasn't in the penthouse. He said he was going to sleep over at the penthouse but he's nowhere to be found. I knew he must have gone back to Leia. I smiled faintly as I made my way out. I just wanted to check on him before getting on my way, I had informed him that I would be visiting Dallas today. I was glad when he didn't inquire about the purpose of my visit but my gladness was cut short when he responded."Count it your long due vacation but you must be back before my date with Leia… Bastard, when you get her, treat her well but I know you can't stay committed, you ain't a one woman's man… are you?" My eyes shone in disbelief and I wondered how he got to know.I made my way out of the still and empty office. I bounced into my car and drove down to the airport. Since this was a personal trip, I did not make use of the Bandas property.When I arrived at Dallas, it was dawn. I made my way to the crescent club and waite

LeiaI looked at the man sleeping beside me and smiled heartily. He has come to mean a lot to me. Carefully, I got out of the bed and turned around to look at him, he was still and did not move a finger.I made my way into the bathroom deep in thought. I was sure something happened the previous day. Jericho isn't a heavy sleeper, he is always alert but here he is sleeping deeply after I had tumbled out of the bed.The maid delivered the food and set up the dining table. I had had my bath and was ready for the day. I peeped into the bedroom and Jericho was just waking up.His eyes darted towards that door and he smiled widely at me."Leia… " he called out and yawned as he got out of the bed. I turned around in readiness to leave but he closed the distance between us and hugged me from behind. "Morning, Principessa," he said huskily and continued to hold me tight. I noticed some roughness on his chest as he squeezed in. I wanted to bury my fingers inside his pajamas and rip it off b
