Nick X Ellis Novels & Stories

Nick Horden was the kind of man everyone in New York’s elite circles whispered about. He was rich, reckless, and a little unhinged. But for all his chaos, he only ever cared about one person: Lisa Winters, a girl with nothing to her name, the half-starved homeless girl he once pulled off the streets. From fifteen to twenty-five, he gave her his whole heart. He spoiled her, protected her, and made her the center of his world. Lisa loved the violin, so Nick dropped everything to travel with her overseas to study music. Even when he lost billions in the stock market because of it, he didn’t care.

“No, I'm not.” Elias’ face twisted with something caught between anger and desperation. His mouth opened like he wanted to say more, but before he could, Nick pulled out his phone and started to dial a number. Elias’ expression changed instantly. “What do you think you are doing?” Nick didn’t answer. He just held the phone to his ear, his voice calm as he spoke. “Hello,” Nick said into the receiver, like he was just having a casual conversation. “Yeah. I've got someone here harassing a young lady.” His eyes stayed on Elias, watching him as he gave them his description and location.

"I have as much at stake in this as you do. If she finishes what she's building..." "You'll lose Nicholas," he said. "Who you've already lost. What you stand to lose is manageable, Calista. What I stand to lose is not." He held my gaze. "So I'll handle it." "She has a federal prosecutor..." "I know who Richard Ellis is," he said. "She has ten years of evidence..."

Sean looked a little adorable with his reaction, which I rarely saw. Ellie suddenly caught my attention with her annoyed exclamation. The woman seemed to be unhappy after seeing us earlier and felt jealous. "It's not fun." "Then I'll make it fun for you, Ellie. How was it?" Nick walked up to Ellie, turned her face towards him and cupped her gently. The look in her eyes was intense, even though it wasn't me she was staring at. "I'm sure you can find something exciting in me."

“Well, it seems that the two of you have a bit more to talk about. I’ll let you end this conversation.” He grabs a box from a shelf and starts walking backwards. “Oh, and maybe next time, have this conversation somewhere else? Other people might get the wrong idea.” Again, Tom addresses that remark to me. I ignore it. After he leaves, the room falls silent. I draw a breath and speak first. “Ellis, if you can put the past behind and act like a doctor, I’ll let you back on my service.” “I can do that,” she answers. “But with all due respect, Dr. Knight, I don’t think I want to be on your service.”

Instead, I cross my arms and zone in on her hoping that when she looks up she'll see the fire in my eyes and how much I'm willing to protect the people here if I need to. "Who are you?" Nicky asks as he tightens his hold on my hand. He's being curious too but I imagine he has to be like that with everyone given his role and his responsibilities. He has so many people to protect that he can't afford to make any mistakes. After a few seconds, she looks up and I swear I feel Nick's whole body instantly tense up. "Hello, Alpha Nicholas." He takes several deep breaths his eyes staying glued on the girl in the cell while she returns the same stare and it's clear to see that they somehow know each

I pulled off the top and took a big swig and coughed watching Ellis peek his head inside. "Can we have a chat," he asked nervously and I shrugged, scooting over on the couch. Ellis entered my room and walked towards me with his hands in his pockets. I glanced over at him and cursed at myself. He was so cute and I gritted my teeth over my thoughts, reminding myself looks don't make the man. He asked me if he could sit and I nodded. "I just wanted you to know that Nekane really is a super decent guy and he basically…Well the way he explained it to me is that he wants to be sure you're not going to be alone," he mumbled softly and I growled bitterly.

Nick smirked without moving his gaze from his phone. "You.." " How much Elise make?" Nick cut her short. Angela blistered. "Why?" "Enough to buy a ring worth billions?" he faced her and enquired. Angela blinked at him not sure what he meant. "If not then Elise is the snitch," he declared and before she could question him, he placed his phone on the desk in front of her. She looked down to see a picture of the same ring she was wearing today and it was worth billions. "She is a loyal employee. She is working for me for the last four years," Angela told him. She was one of those few employees who had moved to Spain with her.

But I was really yearning to breathe the fresh air outside this hole. "Are you going to ignore me today also? I mean you should get a break from those books you read always." Nick is an annoying prick. I learnt his name the second day I got here, Nick Thatcher, he had been in an accident and was in rehab for that. He is a rich guy but very down to earth, it was part of his timetable to annoy me every single day and I just ignored him.

I asked. Jake whistled low. "Holy steroids." "That guy is at least thirty," Nicole pointed at their linebacker. "Look at the size of him. He's got a full beard!" "Pretty sure that's just genetics," Jake said, but he didn't sound convinced. The Westbrook Tigers were huddled near their bench, Coach Ellis in the center barking instructions. I could see Jace's helmet—number 12—and there, standing slightly apart from the group, was Noah. Something was wrong.
