The Deal Read Online Novels & Stories

My eyes blurred for a moment, but as they cleared, the heading at the top of the page stood out in bold, cold letters: ‘TERMINATION OF DEAL’. I felt the air leave my lungs. “What is this?” I whispered, though I already suspected something. “His Majesty has decided that the current deal is no longer beneficial to either party,” Kim continued, as if he were reading a weather report. “He has waived the remaining time on the agreement. You are no longer bound by the terms discussed in the previous deal.” I looked down at the paper. There was a line at the bottom for my signature. “Sign it,” Kim said softly. “And you’re free to go back to your pack. Tonight, if you wish. Transport has already bee

“You’re in a contract.” Noah threw his hands up. “Same thing!” For a moment, silence filled the room sharp and tense Then Ethan said quietly, “I’ll double it.” Noah blinked. “What?” “The payment,” Ethan said. “Make it a billion.” Noah stared. “You think money fixes everything?” “It fixes most things.” Noah laughed, short and bitter. “You’re unbelievable.” Ethan stepped closer, voice lower now. “I’m giving you an out. Take the deal, Noah. Walk away rich. Or walk away broke and let my father win.”

The line clicked. “Mr. Veyron,” my lawyer said. “Tell me the Havelock deal isn’t real.” The words came out fast. “Tell me there’s a way out.” He didn't speak in time, papers shuffled on his end. My jaw was in pain. “Alex,” he said, “I looked at the deal myself, if both sides has signed then It’s real. Backing out now would cost too much.” I squeezed the phone. “So I’m stuck”

“Star what do you think? This concerns you as well.” She’s quiet for a bit, “I’m not sure I want to give all information we have of us to them but we might also learn a lot from the transaction. I believe they have information we should know that they haven’t shared,” she says. I agree with her, plus I don’t think we’re going to get a better deal than this. I look to him, “Okay Noah, you’ve got yourself a deal,” I say and everyone stills immediately. Looking from me to Noah and Noah to me. He just smiles, the kind of smile a man at the poker table shares with his opponent after calling all in. I feel like I just made a deal with the devil and uncertainty crawls through my chest. “I’ll have t

"Straightforward. I appreciate that." He folded his hands together on the desk. "So," he said. "What have you decided?" The question hung in the air between us. I took a slow breath, steadying myself. "I’ve decided… I’ll accept the deal." Afterall, I didn't have to worry about getting my heart, broken. It's fake and more importantly, this is business. For a brief moment, he inhaled sharply. It was subtle, but I noticed it. Then he nodded. "Good."

Of course, she wouldn't care about any consequences. I looked at Aaron, but he didn't seem to mind. He just spoke again, pressing on the button, saying, "Whoever leaks out the conversation earlier will have their year-end bonus revoked." Rachel then started drawing circles on Aaron's abdomen. "My hand still hurts. How are you going to compensate me?" Aaron continued blowing on her hand, which showed absolutely no signs of redness or swelling, and asked fondly, "Well, what is it that you want, love?" Rachel's eyes glinted. "I want you right here. I'm not as smart as Katrina, so I've never been able to have such a big and luxurious office. It's going to be so thrilling and exciting here!"

But it was also offering her a lifeline, however dangerous. She placed her hand in his, ignoring the electric jolt that shot up her arm at the contact. "Deal." Later, as she signed the contract, Maya couldn't shake the feeling that she'd just made a deal with the devil himself. A devastatingly handsome devil with an Italian accent and eyes that seemed to see right through her carefully constructed defenses. What she didn't notice was the way Luca watched her sign, a flicker of something beyond professional interest crossing his face—something that made Sophia raise an eyebrow in silent warning.

He wanted something, and no matter what it was, I was ready to do it. “If you can pay fifty million, I'll let all this go away. You have three minutes.” He didn't need to speak twice, as I ran to my room and grabbed my phone. The screen was cracked a little, but it still had its uses. Was this man joking with me? Fifty million dollars was a piece of cake for me. I could even pay five hundred million if he requested it. “Huh?” My bank app declined the payment. I stared into the stranger's face apprehensively, all the while checking the time. I had one minute and thirty seconds left.

I took a deep breath and gave myself a small pep talk before I stood up "Um, okay hello everyone. My name is Mercedes and I'm a Media and International Relations major," I said as I sat down and released the breathe I didn't realize I was holding. After the whole introduction the group began their little talk as we got to know more about each other and laughed at the sleazy jokes everyone made particularly the guys. We were still in the middle of a playful argument of who was a better musician in between Black Atlass and Taylor Conrod when Kimberly spoke up
