“Calm down, Michael.” Zoe called. “You know you do not want to hurt me.”He laughed hysterically, standing to his feet and dragging her with him. She could feel his grip tighten, realizing that this time around, she was actually not scared of him. There was something with the way that he looked at her that made her less scared than she had been the first time she met him.“You need to calm down and let me go.” She said again, surprised that she was trying to reason with him.“Who the hell are you?” He snapped, tightening his grip again even though he wasn’t holding to strangle her.“I am your wife.” Zoe replied. “We have met two times, Michael. I am Zoe, your wife.”His grip on her neck loosened immediately and he pushed her away from himself. She coughed out, breathing rapidly with relief.“You are his wife, not mine.”She nodded her head, taking few steps away from him. “I am Avery’s wife and he is the real owner of the body. So, I am your wife.” He jerked his head to her direction,

Avery kissed her like his life depended on it, at the moment it seemed it did. He had wanted to do it to shut her up and prevent her from asking further questions because it was already bad enough that she knew about Aaron’s shady business. But the kiss had turned into something else. She had been standing there looking hot as hell in the little excuse of a gown she had on her body and her barefooted legs that looked sexy as hell. The anger she had on her face when she spoke to him had been attractive as hell and when he had touched her, he had lost it.On the bed, she struggled with him, kissing him in return but also struggling. She managed to roll on the bed and straddled him instead. When she looked at him, it had looked like she was going to go off but she didn’t. Instead, she bent down and roughly took his lips just like he had done before.They kissed for what looked like eternity that he felt his lips throbbing, but that didn’t mean he wanted to stop. He wanted more and he wan

Zoe watched from a distance with Avery and his siblings as the guest inn close to their main living area was demolished. She couldn’t count how many times since the process began that she had shaken her head because of how ridiculous everything was. Her eyes drifted to Mia who folded her arms with a blank expression on her face and she felt pity for her. Mia would not want to live in a house where her mother was killed.Avery walked up to her and she turned to look at him, shaking her head again when he said nothing to her.“This is a ridiculous decision by the way.” She spoke first and he nodded slowly, his eyes following the movement of the contractors who were driving tractors and putting on helmets. He sighed deeply and for the first time, she tried to understand his reason for doing so.“They had the effrontery to come into my home and kill my mother in her own bedroom.” He replied. “I have to get them, Zoe. I have to get them no matter what.”“I know.” She replied, looking away

After promising Zoe that he was going to look into Aaron, Avery made some calls, asking his people to watch him closely and make sure he was not defying his orders. He was driving to work when he received a call from one of his investigators. Looking at his rearview mirror to make sure his security car was directly behind him, he answered the call on the third ring.“Speak to me.” He said into the phone.“Good morning, Mr. Trent.” The caller spoke in a very clear voice.“Good morning, Trey.”“Your wife was actually correct when she said your brother was still operating his business.” He said and Avery held tightly to the steering. “I watched his warehouse in the city yesterday and his employees were taking in orders and supplying. Some of them even went out in a bus two nights ago.”Avery shook his head. “Did you follow them?”“No, Mr. Trent. I only watched the warehouse.” He replied in a low voice.Avery groaned in anger, unconsciously increasing the speed of his car. He was pissed t

The darkness made Zoe to begin strategizing immediately. She ignored her almost wet hair and the towel she recently threw to the ground and began to walk blindly around the room. This was exactly what had happened on the last family dinner she had with the Trents and it had just been a little threat. So maybe now, they were being threatened also.She continued to walk blindly until she was able to touch her bed. Using her hand, she traced the edge of the bedding, getting to the bedside table. She reached for the bedside lamb and tried to turn it on, all to no avail.“Shit.” She cursed under her breath. Every light in the house was connected to one source? That was really stupid of them. The loud sound of the alarm in the entire house, scared her a little but she was grateful when the emergency lights came on. Knowing fully well that Avery would be getting a message by now that something was wrong, she abandoned the search for her phone.“Miranda?” She called, making sure that the maid
