Chapter Twenty-One: Horny As Fuck

LIANA'S POV I could hear him through the bathroom door, low, clipped, the same tone from before. I couldn't make out most of it, but a few words carried through the water and the tile."...alright, I'll be there." "Book the next flight."He's leaving? I mean he just got back and he was leaving already?My stomach dropped before he even walked back in.My heart beats so hard as I watch him walk closer to me with a pity gaze.He came back into the bathroom and knelt by the tub, pressing a kiss to my forehead before he even spoke. "I have to go. Something's come up, I need to leave now."I reached out and caught his hand before he could pull away. "Wait. Can't you stay a little longer? Please?""I can't, princess." His phone buzzed again in his other hand, insistent. He slipped his fingers free of mine gently, grabbed his coat off the hook, and left the bathroom.I quickly rushed out of the bathroom, naked and wet, trying to chase him but the moment I stepped into the room, I froze. T

Chapter Twenty-Two: Mafia

HERMES' POVAt ten thousand feet, I spread the case files across the tray table again, even though I'd already gone through them twice. Handprints. Manuscripts. A partial license plate that didn't match anything on record yet.Something about the clues felt different from the cases I usually worked on. Everything seemed too clean, too carefully staged, as if someone wanted me to find only those clues....and nothing more.It was more frustrating than it looked,I took a deep sip of the vintage wine,it used to taste amazing, but now it went down my throat like water.Hitting one dead end after another made this the most frustrating investigation I'd ever worked on.The plane landed in Australia just after 2:00 a.m., local time. My assistant, Dario, was already waiting at the bottom of the stairs with a tablet in his hand before the engines had even stopped."Sir, the company's earnings are up by four percent since the last quarter. The board wants to meet with you before tomorrow's sessi

Chapter Twenty-Three: Masturbation

HERMES' POVI turned the volume up, ready to actually listen to what she'd sent, when my door suddenly swung open without a knock.Dario walked in, breathless, tablet already raised like a shield. "Sir, your next meeting is here. It's already on the schedule for..."Arghh…I just arrived in Australia.I placed my phone on the desk and looked at him. "When was this meeting arranged?""Yesterday, before you landed. I can postpone it if you want...""No. Send them in. I'll take it here."I removed my jacket, picked up my phone from the desk out of habit, and moved toward the conference area. The projector was already lowering from the ceiling as the room prepared itself for another group of executives entering with their laptops and anxious expressions.Anxious would be an understatement.The presentation started. Dario stood behind me,after a few minutes, he leaned closer. "Sir, can you send that file to my phone, the one from the Perth contact?"I unlocked my phone, found it, and sent i

Chapter Twenty-Four: Diary

LIANA'S POVI got home and threw my bag onto the chair harder than I meant to, then screamed straight into my pillow until my throat ached.“Arghh… today was the worst moment of my damn life.”“I hate school!!" I couldn't help but kick off the shoe from my legs and heard it land on anywhere but the floor.I rolled over the couch lazily and angered. I hate my life, I hate my school, I hate everything.At that moment I heard a soft knock from behind me.Madam Iris peeked her head in, brows already pulled with concern. "Liana? What's wrong?”I immediately sat up, worst I was Shy… Madam Iris has caught me kissing Hermes. She was the only maid in the mansion, middle aged and soft spoken.“It's nothing, thank you.” I said, grabbing my shoe from where I had thrown it into.She suddenly came up to me and held my shoe in her hands. " I was going to apologize for the hot soup I had poured on you, it wasn't deliberate.”Great, this is a draw. She caught me kissing Hermes and had mistakenly pour

Chapter Twenty-Five: What He Took

LIANA'S POVMy heart beat so hard against my rib that I feared it would jump out."Give it back." I reached for the diary, but Kyle suddenly stood up and held it up out of reach, that same smug look plastered across his face."Or what?" He tossed it onto the bed behind him without even looking at it anymore. His eyes were on me instead, on the towel, and something about the way he looked at me made my stomach turn. "You know, for someone who's supposedly with her stepdad, you're still really jumpy around me…what are you doing rubbing your boobs on my chest…" "Get out of my room, Kyle."I snapped, pulling away from him before slipping my diary back into the cabinet."You were basically begging for it earlier. That kiss." He stood, stepping closer. "Don't act like you didn't miss me.""I didn't." I backed toward the door, but he moved faster, grabbing my wrist."Come back to me, Liana. We were good together before you started…""Let go of me." I fought to pull my arm free, but his gri

Chapter Twenty-Six: The Threat

LIANA'S POVAfter calling 911 I was more grateful they took the emergency as quickly as it was in just five minutes.The ambulance lights strobed across the driveway before I'd even finished giving the operator our address.I sat in the back beside the paramedics, Iris's hand still in mine, blood dried into the creases of my fingers, praying under my breath the entire ride, praying to a God I wasn't sure was listening.I noticed how Iris's chest was rising and falling, not obvious but little… that… that gave me a little hope, a little hope that nothing was going to happen to her and she was going to be fine.At the hospital they wheeled her straight into the emergency wing, and a nurse pulled me aside almost immediately with a clipboard, asking me to sign her in."I can't." My voice cracked. "I'm not family. She's….. she works for us. She's our housekeeper."I said nervously, I didn't even know her last name, just Madam Iris.The nurse's expression flickered, but she nodded, already m

Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Footage

LIANA'S POVMy hands wouldn't stop shaking….I didn't push madam iris, my brain has begun to convince me, even create scenarios of me actually pushing her.I could hear my heart beating so loud and it scared me.I really didn't, I really didn't push her.I called Kyle back three times, four, my breath coming faster each time the line just rang out and dropped to voicemail.Falling to the ground and hitting my butt on the floor, I felt my head spinning.My legs had already turned to jelly as the image of Iris lying in a pool of blood flashed through my mind.I was scared…I was really scared.I quickly got to my feet, wiped the tears from my eyes, and gripped my phone tightly. My legs felt weak, forcing me to lean against the wall for support as I made my way forward.Finally got there, I noticed Kayla was now calm…her legs hitting against the floor at perfect frequency.She was probably scared and full of anxiety right now.I sat quietly a short distance from her. I really wished I cou

Chapter Twenty-Eight: Watched

LIANA'S POV“Welcome Mr Hermes…”They all bowed simultaneously…I stood up immediately, the handcuffs now secured in front of me after I complained that keeping my hands cuffed behind my back was causing me pain.I ran up to Hermes with tears in my eyes and threw myself into him before I even realised I was moving, my hands on his head as I pressed my body against him, inhaling his unique scent.He'd come straight from wherever he'd been, dark coat still creased from travel, his jaw shadowed, exhaustion carved into the lines around his eyes, but none of that mattered. He was here. Tall, solid, achingly familiar, and I buried my face against his chest and just breathed him in, that same scent that had always meant safety long before it meant anything else."I didn't do it," I choked out against him. "Hermes, I swear, I didn't touch her, I would never…""I know." His arms came around me, one hand pressing flat against the back of my head, holding me there. "I know, princess. I already

Chapter Twenty-Nine: Fired

HERMES' POV I had never had to explain myself to anyone in my life, yet here I was, expected to explain something to my stepdaughter that I wasn't even sure I could explain. I froze for half a second, just long enough that I knew she'd noticed. There was no version of the truth I could give her right now,that the cameras were mine, that Celeste had installed one facing my direction too, that I'd been watching that house for reasons that had nothing to do with her, long before she'd ever become the reason for anything. I had also installed several cameras in Celeste's room, and I had just risked months of investigation to solve this one case. Marco's death…her father's death…my best friend's death…didn't seem ordinary and that was the reason I had installed a hidden camera in her room. It sounded more cruel to admit. The police looked at me, then at her, then back at me, waiting. I said nothing. Just reached over and smoothed her hair back from her face, hoping the gesture wo

Chapter Thirty: Empty

LIANA'S POVI flinched the moment the door was pushed open.Even worse it was Dorie, who seemed to be Hermes' assistant from his company…I know too well kissing my 44yrs old stepfather wasn't the right thing to do but I did anyway…Dorie stood there the moment he saw us for a grudging second, I wasn't sure what his expression did but it didn't seem right at all. He was already halfway into an apology, eyes darted away from us like he could unsee what he'd just walked in on. "Sir, I'm so sorry, I'll come back…""Get in," Hermes said, not even breaking from settling me into the passenger seat, buckling my belt himself before shutting the door.Hermes seemed unbothered by Dorie's presence, I mean he was just caught with me and him…doing something very outrageous.Wasn't he scared of scandals?Wasn't he scared of the law?My heart raced so hard that I feared it would rush out the next second while Hermes looked so chilled like he controlled the air we breathed.He immediately started the
