Nikki St. Crowe Novels & Stories

All of a sudden, the heavy pumping of my heart stops, and my breathing becomes normal again, just as his hand came upon mine. —--------------------- Rowan's POV I wonder why Nikki would take Angela to that quiet spot to discuss shit with her. I know she's not the very friendly type to people, and for her to be trying to be kind of close to Angela, is a cause for concern. NIkki is a very crafty fellow, and applying wisdom in all your dealings with her, will yield you nothing less than peace of mind tomorrow. 'Cause most things she's capable of, is causing heartaches.

*****Leo POV***** When more hours pass without a trace of Niki, I completely lose my sanity. “Hang in there. Niki is the strongest woman I know,” Owen says but I can’t believe anything until I see her. “She is my everything.” “I know and most importantly, Franco and Dion know it too.” “They are monsters, Owen, and Niki is pregnant.” “She will be fine. You have to believe it,” Owen insists and I nod my head. It’s only when Hunter gets intel about the murder of a man he and Nick once hired to build a secret grave Crego and the signals going off from the Crego grave that hope returns to me.

I quip, combing her hair, while trying not to press for answers right now. “ I am a Devinsky after all.” My chest swells with pride hearing that from her. “ Thank you, Akilla. Thank you so much.” Nicki's voice rang a note of gratitude. Hours later, Vicky took the stage, beaming brightly at the camera. “ Before my little brother cuts the cake—” “ Really? Little brother? At thirty-one?” I shake my head, following the trail of her voice. “ Let me introduce the latest queen in the Devinsky household. The Mrs Devinsky!”

But just as she was about to say something else, we hear a squeaking and annoying voice. "Kai, baby? Is that you?" I look behind me and see Nikki. I turned away and spat 'Fuck' quietly. When I thought nobody heard me, Mama Mo smacks me in the back of the head, giving me a glance to let me know that she heard me. "Hey baby? You heading to work?" She looked at me and asked. Nikki wasnt ugly, she was quite beautiful actually, but had an ugly ass attitude. Long blonde hair and blue eyes, about 5'4" and curvey in all the right places.

I reminded him of that. Mark’s laughter filled the room, "You pull her brand under Crownwell & Brooks, and not only will sales explode, the old men on your father’s board will have no choice but to acknowledge you.” he added and I smiled. But even as he said it, my mind wandered to that final, elusive woman—the one CEO no one could seem to pin down easily. She had built a brand with ruthless speed, but stayed hidden from the spotlight, a ghost among giants. She's a mystery and the last key to my throne. Am never missing this opportunity.

Nika agreed after calmly reflecting, "and I might have overreacted a bit." Nika couldn't take her eyes off the girl with dark blonde hair that reached her shoulders and stood at a height of 1.69 meters. Although slender, she had a well-rounded and beautiful appearance. She was engaged in lively conversation with a group of women standing in the opposite corner near the entrance. This was the eldest daughter of the Aber family, and she was also the bride of the party today.

A chubby woman with glasses a little big for her face smiles at me politely, “Welcome ma'am, how may we be of any service to you today?” She asked kindly, smiling so much that I was creeped out. “Uhm, I'm here to see Roman. Roman Domino. We have a meeting " “Oh, what's your name?” “Ashanti Dunbar " I reply “Ah yes, Mr. Domino is expecting you, the penthouse is where you are headed "I nod and fake a smile. I'm a ball of nerves, my palms are sweating. I've never been one to be nervous because of a simple meeting. But we're talking about the man who killed my family, which also happens to be the man who makes my legs buckle.

"Noah! How are you?" Noah swiftly drew her in front of him, hand on her shoulder and erection against her ass. "Jack, good to see you as well. How's the lumber business?" "Can't complain." As an older gentleman in his sixties, he had a nice smile and a shock of white hair. "And who's this lovely creature?" "I'm sorry," Noah rasped. "Where are my manners? This is Raven Crowne. She owns Elements Gallery down in Tartok Crest. I'm lucky to have her as my date for tonight."

Colton asked. "Every regular at that club," Nikki replied. "The staff. Anyone who has been to more than two of her performances." She paused. "And anyone she has had private sessions with." Nobody spoke for a second. "What about people at Crestwood?" he asked. "If this circulates on campus, do we think people who know Avery Nash from the athletics complex recognise her?" "Not from the face," I told him. "The mask and the wig do too much work for that."

X pulls out another stack of R10k and then tells Damien to hand over a bottle of Glenfiddich whiskey and he places it on the table. Nikki’s representatives whisper to each other and then the Aunty looks at us. “Nikiwe is a highly educated woman. Her parents raised her well, she’s been abused, and she’s lost a child and now she is expecting another child.” She says. “As you had already given us the lump sum prior to this negotiation for the event, what about damages?” another one of her uncles adds.
