All Chapters of HIS VICIOUS REVENGE | BOOK 2: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

The rain started around six in the evening. Sparkling raindrops were continually tapping against the glass pane, creating an entrancing and serene acoustic thrumming sound. Emma was alone in the living room, staring out the huge glass window that overlooked the garden. The view was exquisite.The sky looked darker and gloomier. Hypnotic even! The eerie silence, the swaying trees, and the raindrops hitting and dripping off the leaves before soaking into the ground could pull one into a trance. Emma ensconced herself in the woolen blanket and sat on the sofa, her legs up. She had been downstairs since morning. Had helped the maids in the kitchen, talked to James for an hour, gone for an afternoon stroll in the garden, and was now sitting alone watching the clouds pour furiously. For her, it was better than staying alone with him in the room. He was home today. Had awoken a couple of hours ago which was unusual for the man as he was an early riser and usually gets up before her. When

Mind racing, body aching, laying under the crinkled silk sheets all naked, with a cigarette gently clasped in his hand he looked outside the glass door, eyes taking in her details. She was sleeping on the couch again. Her petite figure nestled on the small seat like a fragile bud awaiting spring's arrival. Droplets of water from her freshly washed hair danced down, their journey ending within the folds of her white nightgown. Kevin shook his head affectionately, a gentle chuckle escaping his lips with wispy puffs of gray smoke.She's all washed and dressed up. She always does that. Never allow his touch or scent to linger on her body. Never slept beside him unclothed. In all honesty, she rarely stayed in bed once their passionate encounters came to a close. Whenever Kevin stayed for the night, he always found her on the balcony. There's no denying that her distant behavior bothered him.Kevin took a long drag from his cigarette feeling a tumultuous mix of frustration, longing and

The door swung open, and within seconds the air was filled with his enticing smell. Emma spun around, her heart skipped a beat as she saw him step out of the shower, his toned and glistening torso was the perfect definition of masculine beauty. Even though she had previously seen him naked, the sight of him with only a towel draped around his waist made her heart race for an unknown reason but before she could focus on that her cheeks darkened with the brightest shade of red realizing that she was only wearing a thong. Emma's eyes widened and she quickly turned her back on him in an attempt to hide her bare front from his piercing gaze and scurried to grab her black lace bra and dress from the couch.Kevin's gaze drifted to her lower back and he swallowed hard. The sheer fabric of her thong only served to highlight her buttocks, making them look more enticing. As his eyes took in the breathtaking view, he felt a surge of desire course through him watching how her wavy hair covered h

Emma later went upstairs to her brother's room. James' room was filled with things that he had insisted on carrying from Mina's place. He adores his things and wishes to take them with him wherever he goes. Emma faked a gasp seeing the room. On the bed, the blankets were covered by plushies and coloring books while color packs were laid on the nightstand unevenly. Mina had spoiled him a lot. Emma began to organize her brother's belongings. She placed the plushies on the bed, and neatly stacked the coloring books and packs on the nightstand. When she finished, she stood back and felt a warm wave of nostalgia wash over her.While Emma was arranging his clothes in the closet, James was having a much-needed conversation with his sister, spilling all about his new school, his newfound friends, and how much he missed her all these days. Emma sat beside her brother after she finished arranging his belongings, and the two of them sat for hours giggling and playing games like they used to. So

"What are you looking for?"She hesitated for a few moments but in the end spoke up, hoping that he had seen her pills, "Sleeping pills." "I threw them away," Kevin retorted calmly. "What?" Emma looked back, shocked. She wasn't able to decipher why he would do it. "I need them." She let out, desperation was obvious in her voice. "I don't want you to take those pills again." Kevin seethed, gray eyes looking at her intensely. "Why?" Emma asked, her anger growing. "I can't sleep without them.""They are not good for your health," Kevin replied, his voice dripping with sincerity. "Why do you care?" Emma questioned, baffled. Didn't he intend to hurt her? Then why is he concerned with her well-being? Before she could argue further Kevin pulled her down and hovered above her petite figure. His gaze met hers. "I like to take care of what belongs to me," Kevin rasped, brushing a strand of hair away from her face and looking at her rosy lips. "And you are mine," he whispered and locked h
