"I don't even want to think about it." She pulled her hand away to reach for her coffee mug, but her hands shook. Lucas grabbed her hand again and said, "It's over, Lily. I promise. This situation with the vice president is a mistake on my part. I did not expect him to retaliate when I surrendered all pieces of evidence to the National Intelligence Director.

Lisa pov.. I sat there, watching Drake as he continued to drink, as if I wasn't even in front of him. "So, do you accept my deal?" I asked him. He stopped drinking and stared at me. "I really don't understand what you're trying to say. You want me to do the same process as before? At first, it was easy, but now I think it will be difficult. Dean will never let me go near his Luna, and whatever you're planning, it won't work this time."

While secretary Haris, looking confused, what has happened. Nova and Liana become embarrassed. In Liana's heart to blame herself, why not refuse a hug from Nova while in the elevator? The shame increases when in one elevator with President Dika. President Dika chuckles amused, telling them to continue their activities. "Do the activities that you stopped when we got out of the elevator," said President Dika. Liana strokes her neck awkwardly, while Nova ruffles hair until it falls apart. The elevator door opens again, President Dika and Secretary Haris exit the elevator, letting the couple between boss and the secretary cuddle inside the elevator.

I knew that body and those hazel eyes from anywhere. I tried to walk to her but the senator appeared and grabbed my arm. “Markos, I’m glad you came,” he said as he pulled me into an unwanted hug. I had to go to hios party to show him he and I were still partners. To rule the black world of New York, you need law enforcement and a few politicians. The senator was among those on my payroll and I couldn’t fuck it up because he would screw everything about me. There was a reason they always wound up dead after they retired. They always got big heads and ewuallty big mouths.

Chamberlain had attended the party. "It's an honor to have you here Mr. Chamberlain." Mrs. Lopez bowed slightly as a gesture of greeting with respect.

I trail into the room, only to jerk to a dead stop when my eyes landed on our beds filled with roses and lilies. Veering, I take a look at Lilly before my eyes dim, accusation swimming through my gaze. “Dawn, were you in any way offended by Mr. President?” I laugh disdainfully at Lilly's glib.

His cheeks flushed crimson as he took in the sight of me, and he immediately slammed the door shut. “Sorry, Miss Wilde,” he called from the other side of the door. “I have to return to work. President Jones needs me—there’s a situation at the office.” “What situation?” I asked, furrowing my brows as I tightened my grip on the towel still in my hands. Derrick hesitated. “Grant won the vote. He’s been appointed vice president. President Jones isn’t himself since then—he’s asked for my presence.” The words hit me like a sledgehammer.

“Arianna is an only child, you have the wrong woman.” “I am Theodore Der Mandant,” he said, looking at Viktor who tensed. The man’s family was well known, and we knew that killing him would end up getting us in trouble. It wasn’t just about him being a messenger right now, it was about who HE was. “I do not make mistakes, and judging by your fumbled expression, I take it that you are well aware who I am, Alpha Dean.”
