All Chapters of Biker-in-law's Death Kiss: Chapter 71 - Chapter 79

I was about to step out of the bedroom when my phone lit up, and Louise Auclair's name displayed on the screen.I turned for the balcony, hitting the answer icon. “You’ll receive a gift box in about twenty minutes. Make sure you answer the door yourself,” her voice said, just as the motion-sensor glass doors parted, and I walked through to the balcony. Her voice was calm, and I suspected she was probably in the hammock by the pool.I could see it in my head, the padded earth-toned hammock swinging over a small portion of the pool.“OK,” I replied.At that moment, a warm caressing music started up somewhere in the house.There was no point asking the contents of this box. It most likely contained this drug that would send Dean to a home. It had to be, if she wanted me to receive it myself.“Olivia.” Her voice made me alert. “Whatever this is, wrap it up quickly.”“What do you mean?” I reached up to pluck a leaf off a tree branch next to the balcony, and saw my hand was shaking as I b

“I’m glad you’re both becoming friends,” Dean said, and my racing heart slowed. “And it's great he could convince you to return home.” He continued, biting into a piece of bacon.My blank mind couldn’t come up with a response.Two more minutes.If I delayed even a second, the Fletcher butler or any of the guards could claim the package.Why could Louise not just have me pick it somewhere else?“You are a special kind of woman, Olivia.” Dean’s sudden voice startled me. “You haven't checked out any of the gifts I got you.”“Mmm.” was my only response, as I tapped my phone awake to check the time, because one more stolen glance at the wall clock would definitely get Dean's attention.“I have something to tell you,” he said now. Pushing my seat back, I stood up despite his serious tone. “I need a minute. It seems Harper has something for me.”That was the only ruse I could come up with. If Dean's claim of trying to call a truce was true, that name should evoke agreeableness.He nodded,

“How about a legal proposal, Olivia.” Dean took a step towards me. I steeled myself not to back away.“I’ll never hurt you again, and we will go back to how we used to be.”“Why?“What?“Why are you suddenly keen on a truce?”“Look at us, darling. Smart, tough.“ He paused. “With your resources and my ideas, we could be the gods of tech.”Finally! He had spit out what he wanted. Now, I can only wonder what made him finally realize my value?“If we do this, no human will be able to surpass us even in two generations.”“And if I say no?” His eyes looked sad, but he nodded and said something I’d never thought I would hear from him.“I’ll respect that. And we’ll maintain an open marriage till divorce.”I saw my opportunity then. “I would like to add one other term to that legal proposal.” I pulled my seat out, and sat sideways this time.He hunched over me. “If you refuse this, there’s no deal.”His eyes were intent. “Let’s hear it.”I inhaled. This was for my brother. This was for my

My body acted on its own.My bike rode round the car and forward as if heading back for the entrance. Then turned horizontally, blocking off the road several inches away from the car.I jumped off the bike then, and just as I had suspected, the driver tried to drive through the bike, but the bike crashed to the ground and the car stalled, rolling back.I made a get-up and ran to the car.I did not bother telling the masked idiot to step out, I simply balled my glove-padded fist and began punching the window.He flinched back as shards of shattered glass flew everywhere, but my racing gear served as a protective shield for me.One more punch and the glass shattered completely.I reached in both hands, grabbed him by the collar and repeatedly bashed his head against the body of the car.He wrestled to get my hands off him, and when that failed he pressed a button that sprang the door open, hitting me smack in the face.I fell back, he grabbed for the steering wheel to perhaps drive arou

OLIVIA There were two options left to me: hurl my fork at Norio’s sleazy eyes or leave.Since I was hardly in the mood for Colt’s silent judgments or emotional-regulation-Ted-Talk, I pushed myself off the table.All three men looked up at me immediately. “Excuse me,” I turned on my heel, and Dean got up to let me out. As I walked out, his eyes held questions and his hand brushed my hand, taking it in his. I looked down at my hand in his, jarred at the alien sight. Was he doing this for Colt’s benefit?“You okay?” His voice was low.“I need to use the restroom,” I yanked my hand away from him, very aware of Norio’s eyes on my body.My gaze swept from Dean to his lover, who sure enough had his eyes somewhere around my waist.I stormed off. “The idiots,” I muttered under my breath, squeezing my fist, wanting to give the man one good punch.Two women stepped out of the restroom then, and as we acknowledged each other, one of them looked behind me and blushed.I pushed the door open
