Chapter 51

AVA My hand goes up to my throat as Cade moves away from me, swiping off the items on his desk in one quick motion. As objects crash on the floor, my fingers tighten around my throat, flinching from the force of his anger. “Cade—“ My voice comes out choke and breathless. “I didn’t know Asher was going to be here, I-I-“ My voice trails off as his head snaps to mine, grey eyes so dark and hooded, I instinctively retreat. Bridging the distance between us, he pushed me against the wall. “Don’t fucking lie to me!” He sneers, fingers digging into my arms due to his tight how gripping me. “Why are you here then? You fucking had your hands all over him!” “I-I came here for you—“ “Lair!” He hisses, cutting me off. “He put his filthy hands on you, Princess. He touched what’s fucking mine, dammit!” Letting go of me abruptly, he starts towards the door. Fearing he might be going after Asher, I cut in front of him, using my body as a shield between him and the door. I reach out to him, cup

AVA We walk quietly into the house some minutes later. Due to how light his steps are, it takes a whole lot of self-control for me not to keep checking to see if he’s still behind me. Just as I am about to open the bedroom door, I notice him leaving in the opposite direction. He disappears through the living-room door as I look over my shoulder. The room lights are dim as usual when I stroll in after him. He approaches the wetbar, pouring himself some whisky. Raising the glass to his mouth , he looks at me above the rim. “Go to bed, Princess.” He orders, turning his back on me. Shaking my head even though he can’t see me, I cross over to join him. Having no clue what to do, except that I don’t want to leave him alone tonight. While I may not have known his Mom, I feel his sadness. A single finger swirls around the glass rim before he picks it up to take another sip. Watching him, I find my gaze lingering on his lips. A quick flashback of what happened a while ago creeps into my

Chapter 53

AVA Instead of going to bed last night, I spent the majority of the night in the closet, altering my clothes. It was either that or spend the entire night tossing around in a big bed. After that, I took out my sew in. Which has been long overdue, then comb out my hair. The following morning, Cade woke me up by barking orders at someone. With my eyes half-close, I dragged myself into the bathroom. Once the water touches my body, sleep clears from my eyes in an instant. About an hour later, I’m done and wearing one of my altered clothes. The best thing about being a fashion designer, is turning two mediocre sweaters into off shoulders with long sleeves mini dresses. Smoothing my over the soft fabric, I reach for a comb to brush my hair. My stomach growls, making me drop the comb. I pause outside the door, peeking through the security hole, but I couldn’t see Cade through it. Taking that as my cue, I slipped out of the bedroom. However, my steps faltered at the sight of Cade.

Chapter 54

AVA Cade takes me to a shooting range, reserving the entire place for the afternoon. It actually takes us walking into the premises before it clicks for me. At our entrance, the employees started vacating the premises, only one safety instructor left behind on our floor. Cade’s men scattered around the perimeter, making sure the environment is secured. “Caden…” I whine, taking a step back. “I told you, I don’t like guns.” “I’m not telling you to.” He pointed out, shooting me an amused look. “The last time I held a gun, it went off. It could have hurt somebody—“ “I doubt it.” “What if it had?” I toss back, folding my arms across my chest. “Then it will be your first kill.” “First what?” I echo, my eyes going wide. “And that’s my point, Cade. I don’t want to kill anyone, hell! Thinking about it sickens me.” “You don’t have to—yet.” He looks up, striding over to my lane. “There’s a saying, Princess. The one who wields the sword, wields the power. In our world, this…” he cocks

Chapter 55

AVA “Cade? Did you see that?” I squealed as the bullet went through the target head. Too bad there isn’t an objective to this one, I lost count of how many bullets went through the target. I drop the gun, giving the instructor a chance to change the target. When I turn to look at Cade, who happens to be on his fourth bottle of water. It dawned on me that I’ve been standing there, cheering and shooting for the past? I don’t know, I lost track of time. “You know what?” I call out to the dude. “I think that would be all for today.” Although Cade looks more than ready to go, yet he made no move to stop me. Still wondering about that when a war piercing sound suddenly filled the air. My ears rang for more than a minute, and the next thing I knew, Cade’s men were scattering through the premises, their weapons out. I swallowed, my eyes snapping back to Cade as he stood up, pulling out a gun. “Vince?” Cade barked, brushing his hair above his hair to listen into an earpiece. “Status?”
