Chapter 152 RUSSEL ~~~©~~~ “It’s you I want,” Allesia whispered as Nikolai's tongue skimmed over her neck. “But you left me for him,” Nikolai countered, his hand trailing the soft confines of her naked breasts. “And now he left you for her.” He finished, a sinister smile teasing the corners of his lips. She was naked, with the two men in bed. All three of them were naked. I watched in horror as both Nikolai and Nolan took turns kissing Allesia. She threw back her head and moaned softly as Nikolai's tongue ascended from her cleavage to her neck while Nolan's fingers teased her inner thighs. “What do you want, kitten?” Nikolai whispered into her ear as he guided Nolan’s head towards her abdomen. Nolan looked up, a sinister smirk on his face, “Do you want us or do you want him?” She turned and saw me. I waited, expecting she would quickly come to me, but her face remained indifferent. I stood there, rooted to the spot, disgusted and mortified, but I couldn’t move, couldn’t do

Chapter 154 RUSSEL ~~~°~~~ From my vantage point, I had the upper hand. Gausto was out in the open, vulnerable, and I intended to keep him that way until Kegan arrived with backup. The thought of retreating inside crossed my mind, but I weighed the risks. If I go back inside, the chances of coming out alive were too slim. And I would rather die before I let myself be confined in that damned white room again. With Gausto outside, Stacy's escape would be impossible, she had limited manpower and after what happened to her family, there were only so many people she could trust. Gausto was the head of that herd and he was her number one. They may be limited, but I was already weak, wounded and tired, the chances of fighting them alone was not promising at all. So my best bet was to keep Gausto engaged, to buy time and ensure Stacy had nowhere to run. His eyes scanned the area, frustration etched on his face as he struggled to place where exactly my voice was coming from. I s

Chapter 156 ALLESIA ~~~°~~~ Stacy’s voice still echoed in my mind long after she left, and I stood there even longer just staring at my open palm with the flash drive in it. My heart was thundering in my chest; between Russel's coldness and his indifference, I couldn't even tell which one hurt me more. I stared at the USB drive again, harder this time, like the answers to the thousand questions in my mind were there and I just had to look hard enough. Curiosity pricked my thoughts, raw and unyielding, and I had to satisfy them. I slowly turned my head. Nikolai was still standing there, his eyes fixed on my face like I would disappear if he took them away. “I’m so sorry, Allesia,” he apologized again. “He's been through hell and—” I gave him a small smile. “Stop making excuses for him, Nik.” He took a deep breath. “Fine, we both agree he's an asshole. I can kill him if you want.” “And stop apologizing for something you didn't do.” “Fine, I'm sorry—oh, fuck!” I did

Chapter 158 RUSSEL ~~~°~~~ Every movement, every touch from everyone—including the one person I actually risked getting killed to come see—made me flinch before I could even realize it. It was so disgusting how much I felt like a scared little bitch on her wedding night. I collected my keys from the guy at the parking lot, flinching when his hand brushed against mine, and that pissed me off even more. I quietly opened the car and slipped in, the pain from the wound and all that gunfire was beginning to tell on me more than the physical damage. My knuckles turned white as I gripped the steering wheel tightly, too tight. The fucking doctor couldn’t have been any rougher with the treatment than he had been, and I was so sure he did it out of pure jealousy. All his nurses, which I suspected included the one he was eyeing or his bitchy ex, dropped everything they were doing and gathered around just to watch me. That didn’t sit well with the doctor, hence the extra layer of pain he ad

Chapter 160 ALLESIA ~~~ °° ~~~ I felt so weak and sluggish, like something had been ripped right out of me, a part of me I could never replace. The weight of the previous night hung heavy on my shoulders like a looming cloud as I moved about the room, fitting my stuff into a single suitcase. When Manuel came to assist me with the box, I felt an overwhelming sense of finality as he wheeled it out of the house. Each step I took felt heavier than the last, as if my emotions were physically anchoring me to the ground. This particular house had never felt like home, and yet leaving it bring so much pain. “Are you alright?” Manuel’s voice broke me out of my thoughts, I had paused for the third time in the short trip to the car without even realizing it. I breathed a sigh and nodded slowly. “Nikolai didn’t come?” “Yeah, he said to tell you he doesn’t know if he would be able to see you off without coming with you.” I chuckled in response, but it was a hollow sound, devoid of any re
