Adrian Chase Peacemaker 소설 & 이야기

“For the last time, Pearl, your brother is not gay, and I would appreciate it if that rumor of yours remained outside this banquet,“ Cedric warned, his voice low as though reminding a servant of her place. It was a shame to see the Denver family's true colors behind closed doors. What a shame that the money that purchased their influence couldn't buy them class. Pearl instantly behaved. “If you say so, Father.

His reason for not getting married yet is that there's someone in his heart. Isn't that right, Chase?“ I couldn't shake

How she’d reach for him when she was scared, like it eased her fears. “I’d let her go,” he added. “Let her chase real peace.” He swallowed hard. “But I’m not a better man.” That’s when his phone buzzed. Unknown number. He hesitated before picking up. “Adrian Cole.” There was a moment of silence. Then a chill voice came through the speaker. “Miss me?” Adrian’s body tensed. “Gray.” “You didn’t think I’d just disappear, did you?” the guy mocked. Adrian stepped away from Amelia’s door and into the stairwell. “What do you want?”

The four of us stand up when five extremely large men walk in. “I am Kaden, and this is my cousin Alek. These two here are Brent and Lance.” I say. “Hey, I am Curtis, and this is Venom,” Curtis says. “I am Quade, and this is Zion. I am assuming you know Chaos.” Quade states.

Write that down. If I ever ask for my meds, bring me this.” Relief flooded my chest. “Noted,” I said. Burned it into my memory, actually. When Mr. Adrian stood up from his chair, I didn’t have time to step back—suddenly, we were face to chest. Well, my nose came up to his chest, at best.

"Uh, oh… sorry about that. I didn't realize that you had a mate. And it’s Nix, that’s unbelievable. Sorry and congratulations to both of you." I accepted his apology. "No worries. No harm done." The girl shook her head at his denseness. "I'm Chloe, and this is Greg and Soren." Greg shook my hand. "If you didn't pick it up, Chloe is my mate." I said, "Yes, I noticed." I tilted my head as I examined Soren. "And your mate is Cassie from the library, right? I met her earlier today, she seems nice." Soren shook his head. "No, I haven't met my mate yet."

I went to check on Adrian to see if he was sleeping well I opened his door and met him awake Me: Prince, why are you awake? He replied weakly Adrian : I've been trying to reach out to you for almost an hour now. There's a tracker device on me and it's beeping My eyes widened I looked and saw it among the clothes in the bag on the floor. Me: we have to get out of here I quickly rushed up to him and helped him up. I sat him down again Adrian : why? I placed my palm over him again and healed him completely.

The city hummed below us, oblivious to the war that had almost ended us. Adrian ate his pancakes with gusto, seemingly recovered from the trauma now that he was surrounded by his parents and his uncle. He chatted about his toys, about the 'safe house' he was going to build in his room, and about how Uncle Damian was "broken" and needed "sticky tape." Damian laughed – a real laugh – and let Adrian put a Spider-Man band-aid on his arm, right over the gauze. "Very stylish," Damian said, admiring the band-aid.
