And Reign?

But how could it be?It was a lot to take in. I glanced around. The people around us were drunk. With thoughts of Reign at the back of my head, I knew I had to leave quickly. But I couldn’t leave Elara behind here alone like that. I stood up with a firm decision, “I will find out about it.”“You would?” Her eyes brightened as she listened to my words.“I will,” I nodded. “To find quickly, we need to leave from here first.”“Okay,” She stood up instantly.I sighed. I thought it would be difficult to take her out of here, but thanks to heavens, she was convinced easily. Due to the alcohol effect, her body swayed lightly. I supported her body against mine as I got her out of the bar.Fifteen minutes later…When I arrived at home, I saw Eliot holding Reign in his hands, pacing back and forth in the hallway. “Is she awake?” I asked, walking towards him.“No, Madam. She was about to, but then I picked her up, which made her sleep again,” He answered.I nodded and took Reign from his arms. W

Anything on your mind?

When we reached Stardust Resort, I saw it was empty. Too empty for anyone to be there. Was it closed today? I frowned and glanced at Eliot in question. “What’s going on? Is it closed today?”He shook his head with a smile, “No, Madam. Sir booked it for you.”I couldn’t help but roll my eyes. Raven and his ways were always too much. For example, now what was needed was even to book the entire resort. I had already guards with me. Thinking of guards, don’t tell me he had also filled the perimeters with guards as well.I took my phone out and immediately sent him a message, “Why?”His reply came quickly in two seconds, like he was just waiting for my message. He had replied with only one word, “Convenience.”Taking a deep breath, I typed another message, “Don’t tell me there are more guards too!”One second passed before I got his reply: “Anything for my beautiful Wife.”Blush crept over my cheeks as I tried to remain normal. Raven didn’t flirt usually. When he did, it was present in his

Elara told me about you and Robin

“Elara told me about you and Robin,” I said slowly, keeping my tone as neutral as possible.His eyes turned cold instantly, and his hand paused in mid-air.My nails dug into my palm at his cold reaction. The air around me felt thick and suffocating. I wonder if I made a mistake by asking him about his? He didn’t answer for seconds, then minutes passed like that. I was about to say something, or change the topic, when he smiled. He smiled warmly, “It’s just how business competitors work, Val. You shouldn’t be concerned about such matters.”I shook my head to speak, but he continued, “And I have told Elara about it as well. But she wouldn’t listen to anything. So, I hope you can put some sense into her.”“Is that so?” I met his gaze calmly, though I felt a storm in my mind.“What else?” He shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly. “What’s going on with your life?” He asked, changing the topic back to me, “Where is your protective husband?”“He is out of the country,” I answered.“And he let

I was just trying to help

Raven Blackwood’s POV:That bastard was lucky. He was still hiding. It would only take two days at most to find him. And when I do, I would make him pay in the deadliest ways possible.Today, along with Niko, I was meeting the biggest trader in Greece, Reynolds. No one, even Nikos, knew his first name. Everyone called him by his last name, Reynolds.The meeting was set on the terrace of a famous hotel. One thing it had was a good scenic view. Second, it gave us good privacy.Jeremy had already done the security check, and only Nikos and I remained there to meet Reynolds. Due to the confidentiality of Reynolds, his men had asked Jeremy to stay behind. I watched them with a cold eye, but didn’t say anything.Reynolds arrived five minutes later. He looked young, way too young. I thought he would be a man in his fifties or so. But he was just a young boy who looked to be in his mid-teens. He had blonde grey hair, and a huge black sunglass had covered most of his face. He wore a white colo

It was someone I worked closely with

His eyes widened the moment he heard his name from my mouth. I smiled. This was what I wanted. This was what I got. He thought he could hide from me? What a delusion! Changing face and voice could protect him, but not from me!“How…” The words of truth escaped his mouth before he could stop himself.“How?” I chuckled. I could understand what was going through his mind. I didn’t feel the need to justify myself, but still I answered, “You really thought you could take over the role of a fifty-year-old man?”His eyes turned fierce, but I pressed him down with my index finger.I didn’t know it was you until I saw you today.“You…” His fists clenched.I nodded, “I have heard of Reynolds. I knew he was around fifty or so.”He glared at me.“So… The only justification remained that someone took over his identity.” I continued, “I still wasn’t sure it was you. But your reaction when I said your name was enough for me to know that you’re Nolan Rochefort yourself!”“I swear I didn’t know about

When I returned, Drake was waiting for me.

Lucien Drake. He was one of the men I initially started doing business deals with. He stood by my side when I was dealing with my enemies from Italy. Seeing his name was nothing but a shock to me. But again, in our world, deals were made on the basis of profit. Regardless of the information Max found, I had to dig deeper into this matter. Tomorrow, we will be back in Vegas. I would let Eliot look into Drake first. If he found nothing, it would be good. But if he did, Drake would face his worst karma.I leaned back in my chair, thinking about everything happened lately. I wasn’t sure of the power backing Nolan. For now, that he was gone was enough for me. I closed my eyes for a moment. The memory of Drake from many years ago came to my mind like a dark shadow. That time, I wasn’t who I am today. Back then, my name held no weight. People didn’t lower their voice when I walked into a room. They didn’t watch me with caution. They didn’t think twice before underestimating me. And that

They underestimate you

He was standing near the same balcony where we met for the first time that day. His back was facing the hall, and the way the city lights reflected on his body, it made him look even more still and controlled. It was like he hadn’t moved from his position at all.“You’re late,” He said without turning to look at me.“It’s done,” I replied calmly.Then slowly, he turned his body to face me. His gaze scanned over my body, checking for any sign of struggle or so, but there was no visible expression on my face.“That was not a simple task,” He murmured under his breath.“It was never supposed to be,” I correctly answered.For a moment, heavy silence lingered between us. Then he slowly nodded, “Good.”Good! That one word carried more meaning than praise. It meant I passed enough to enter his inner world. It meant I didn’t fail his expectation. It was enough for now. He walked past me and stopped just close enough for his voice to be barely audible to me, “Do you know why I chose you?” He a

Who had the information and resources?

I didn’t respond immediately. I let his words sit between us. It was as if he was offering me something, like this wasn’t anything but a test again.“When?” I asked calmly.“Tonight,” He replied calmly.That fast? Considering the time durations he had given me tasks, it was quicker this time. I didn’t mind it and asked with a sharp gaze, “Where?”“It’s a high level meeting on a private cruise. They are all powerful people, and it includes bigger money but also bigger risks.”“And bigger betrayal,” I added.He smiled faintly as he nodded, “Now you are thinking correctly.”I leaned forward slightly, resting my elbows on knees, “What’s the catch here?”“There is always a catch,” He began in a smooth tone, “The deal is unstable. Those people don’t fully trust each other. One wrong move could lead to bigger chaos.”“And you still want the deal to get done through me?” I asked.“I would like to see you survive it,” He corrected.He would like to see me survive it. His tone said he had the c

Who exactly are you?

The thought barely processed in my mind when I heard another round of bullets roaring in the air. I didn’t let myself hesitate and slowly bent down to grab the fallen gun. Then, immediately, I rolled behind a steel pillar for my cover to protect myself as the bullet passed the spot where I had been standing a second ago. The air was thick with the smoke of gunfire. The force of impact vibrated through the pillar and then into my shoulder. “They are tightening the circle,” I muttered under my breath.I peeked out slightly to track their movements. Next, I noticed two men on the upper deck. One of them was standing closer to the stairs. The other one was covering him from the open side.There were snipers above and shooters below. It was a perfect kill box.My jaw tightened slightly. It was not bad, but it was not enough. I moved as my chance came. I fired twice in a quick move. I missed the first shot intentionally, which forced the man near the stairs to shift from his position. The

Need I repeat myself?

The night was heavy. When we finally left the cruise, it was already morning. By the time we reached a safe place, I had lost too much blood. The last memory before closing my eyes was seeing Drake for two seconds. His figure was blurry, but I knew he was there.When I regained consciousness, twenty-eight hours had passed. The smell of antiseptic filled my senses as I slowly opened my eyes. White walls. Plenty of machines were surrounding my body. I glanced out of the window and blinked a few times to clear my vision.A few minutes passed before I noticed two nurses entering my room. They took the reading first without saying a word or change of expression, seeing I was awake. After they were done, they walked out.A moment later, one of the nurses entered the room again, and this time she had an elderly-looking doctor by her side. I didn’t hear what she said clearly, but the doctor frowned deeper.He slowly nodded at her and walked to my side, “How are you feeling now?”“It’s alright
