Chapter: Chapter 30Chapter 30It was a tiring journey and Bolt really suffered with him. It wasn't only pain and discomfort, it was Josh’s mood swings too. He was a selfmade man and he never replied on anyone regarding anything in his life, and now he was bound to take rest. He understood that he almost kissed death but it wasn't easy for him to digest the fact that he couldn't go to his work daily or he couldn't sit a lot. “I don't need anything. Just go away”. He was throwing tantrums at Bolt who was pleading him to eat and take rest. “Baby but…”. “Connannnnnn. Gooooooo”. He screamed on top of his lungs before he tried to stand up but lost his balance and fell down on the couch. “Josh”. Bolt quickly moved and pulled him into his arms. Josh was crying bitterly, feeling helpless at the situation. “Calm down love. Sshhh. It's okay. It's okay love. I am here”. Bolt kept him enclosed in his arms and let him cry it out. He could understand his frustration. “I can't live like this Bolt. It's not me”.

Chapter: Chapter 29Chapter 29“Josh. It's the last bite baby”. Bolt was on his knees to feed Josh but he was adament not to eat anymore. “I am all full, Bolt. I cannot take even a single bite”. Josh repeated what he was continuously saying for he past ten minutes. “But baby”.....“Bolt. I am serious. If you picked another spoon full of food to my mouth, I am going to throw it all over you”. Josh said in an utter serious tone and his eyes opened wide to see how Bolt actually jumped away from him. He busted out laughing, looking at the horrified expressions of Bolt. “Seriously Josh”. Bolt looked at Josh with not so funny expressions. “What? I didn't know an officer like you who must have killed lots of people, would revolt just at the thought of throwing up”. Josh was wincing but laughing out loud. Bolt hufed but chuckled too. “At least killing someone isn't as gruesome as vomiting”. He picked up the dishes and took them to the sink before loading them in the dishwasher. “Do you need any painkille

Chapter: Chapter 28Chapter 28Josh was home after three days. His wounds were healing fine and the doctors allowed him to rest at home but he wasn't allowed to go to work at least for a month. He was quite worried to know that they had to remove his spleen but the doctor explained well, killing his fears. “Here, lay down here and tell me what do you want to eat?” Bolt made him lay comfortably on the couch and sat with his feet in his lap. “Ask Pete to make Thai for me. And what do you want?” Josh asked Bolt who picked up his phone, called Pete and ordered two Thai platters with salad and orange juice. “Bolt, can you give me my phone?” Josh asked Bolt who pulled out his phone from his pocket and handed it to me. It was the first time Josh had asked for his mobile. He turned on the TV while Josh was checking his phone and smiled to see the messages from Bolt’s department and voice notes from his parents. His eyes were misty at their love filled scolding, though he pretended to pout. He was happily

Chapter: Chapter 27Chapter 27Marshall entered the coffee shop and looked around. He saw Bolt sitting by the window with a cup of coffee in front of him. He went to the counter and ordered one for himself with a cookie and went to take his seat once he got his order. Bolt didn't speak for a while, assessing him with a deep gaze. Marshall kept his gaze too. He wasn't going to let him think that he was a weak man. Finally Bolt broke the tense silence with a deep breath. “Yesterday your wife visited Josh’s restaurant while he had a meeting going on in the hall”. He started off without any pleasantries. “I am not aware of it”. Marshall was actually surprised. “I don't know if you were aware of it or not, but she had created so much fuss there. She tried to picture Josh as the most disgusting man on earth in front of his prestigious clients. She had tried everything she could to sabotage his reputation while I had strictly forbade you to keep her under your hodl, that you failed, miserably. Now, I do

Chapter: Chapter 26Chapter 26Josh was still out cold. His surgery was a success but he was on sedatives so his body would heal. Bolt asked Richard to stay in the waiting room while he rushed to go home. He got fresh and packed a bag for both of them. He made sure to inform Pete properly about Josh’s condition who promised to meet him at the hospital. Bolt informed his parents and they were in utter shock to hear about Josh and they would have came only if they were closer. They were out on a plane to visit their home now. Bolt had assured them that he would keep them updated but he was actually missing them to be there with him. He was scared and unsure of Josh’s condition. But he had faith in the doctors if they said Josh was improving. He went back to the hospital and asked Richard and Martin if they have to go back, that they had to. They told him to visit him again once they file the report and collect all the evidence of the attack. Pete was right on time with boxes of take away for them. “T

Chapter: Chapter 25Chapter 25“Bolt, there is a new bar opened just around the corner, let's go there”. Josh asked Bolt once he was free of his guests and the manager promised him to handle the remaining night until it was the closing time. “Okay beautiful, if you say so”. Bolt winked at him leaning to steal a kiss. The bar was nice. They had built it spaciously. Even at rush hours, there was no congestion in the hall. Bolt took Josh to the counter where the bartender was busy displaying his skills and flirting with the customers. “What do you want, love?” Josh asked Bolt to order their drinks. “Martini”. Bolt replied looking around. “Excuse me”. Josh waved his hand to call the bartender. “Two dirty martinies”. He shouted over the noise of the club. “Sure handsome. It's on the house”. The bartender winked, not knowing or may be ignoring the fact that Josh was with Bolt. “No need. I can afford a drink for my fiance”. Bolt listened to him and didnt like a bit, effectively shutting up the bartender.

Hugo:
I am the undisputed king of the underworld. I rule the country and being the only manufacturer of quality weapons, I own every life. As the head, I get to choose first and then I can choose to throw the remains for everyone to have a bite.
There is no one who can leave my claws, I can have whoever I want, be it a boy or a girl. No strings attached. My heart is woven in black. No time and space for any colors in my life.
I can’t tolerate deceit and breaking trusts. Loyalty means everything to me. To me dishonesty is equivalent to death, that’s why I never trust anyone.
I am happy being the emotionless person in this world until she came into my life as a payment and I was supposed to kill her after using her, only if I knew….
Caterina:
I was living my life in a romantic fantasy. I had dream of a prince coming and taking me away to a far land.
There came someone to take me away. But he wasn’t a prince. He was a ruthless king of underworld. I had heard about him in hushed whispers but I had never thought of meeting him face to face.
I was nothing to him, nothing worthy. And I had accepted my fate but he took away from me the only thing I had vowed to keep for the one I would love.
I hate him and he gets off my anger and hurt. He likes to flaunt himself with a new girl everyday and every night. It should not make me feel anything but hatred towards him. And I want to run away from this dark world. And I did succeed but at what cost…..

Chapter: Chapter 29Chapter 29 stmHugo was working in his file in his office when he heard a knock on the door and Caterina entered his office, wearing his tee shirt and sweats. “Are we wearing my clothes now?” Hugo smirked. “Well, I like them soft and baggy. Also they smell of you”. She replied with a shy smile. And as always Hugo felt his heart skipping a number of beats by her being so clear about her emotions. “So you like surrounded by my smell?” Hugo stood up and rounded his desk to where she was standing in the middle of the room. He lifted her chin up to look straight into her eyes. She gasped to see how his gaze had turned dark with just one sentence from her. “Yes. I do”. She could do anything to make him realize that her feelings for him was not a show off. That she was being honest.“I like it too”. Hugo bend down to kiss her hard and fast, stealing her breath away. He pulled away after a while, controlling his urges to just bend her over his desk and fuck her senseless. “So, what are

Chapter: Chapter 28Chapter 28 stm“So tell me what happened that day?” Hugo asked Caterina once they settled for the night. She had taken her medicine and food and was feeling much better. “Can't we let it go?” She looked at him with pleading eyes. “Look, we can ignore the elephant in the room but at some point we need to address it. It's new, it's fresh, you can tell all details without missing anything important. This will help me tracking down everyone if we missed anything. So please. I know, it's painful. You felt betrayed and deceived. I know it still hurts. But it's important for both of us. The doctor told me you will suffer from nightmares and trauma and you need to let it out. That's why I am insisting you to tell me”. Hugo held her closer in his embrace. She sighed, feeling safe already. “I had already made sure that my cafe was ready to be re-inaugurated this weekend. I was actually thinking to ask you and invite you to cut the ribbon for me and bring all your men for the first day. I

Chapter: Chapter 27Chapter 27 stm.“So what are you going to do now? Want to visit Vittori”? Luca asked but Hugo shook his head. “Not yet. Bring Jerome to the ring.” He went to the elevator with a smirking Luca behind him. “What? Wan to settle the goal?” He asked Hugo with a grin, making him grin too. “No, I am just restoring my energy before I face Vittori once Caterina is awake.” He laced his fingers together to crack his knuckles. His mind was still echoing wth the words of the doctor. She had been touched and tarnished all by her own father. Involved or not, he was the cause of it and Hugo had promised himself to avenge her, in her presence. He had forbade his men to give any food or water to Vittori. Not at least Caterina show some mercy at her father, but he would brainwash her to stay as merciless as she could. He would train her that the enemies would fear her name. But he knew he had to stay patient for her, no matter how hard it was. They reached the basement where the ring hall was tur

Chapter: Chapter 26Chapter 26 stm. Hugo parked the car at a safe distance. The jungle was silent except the few night animals hooting and howling at a distance. The trees were dense that no light could reach the earth. He looked around to see his men hiding at places as he got whistle signals in his ear piece. “Boss the place is a forgotten warehouse. It's to the left to where you are standing. Around forty feet. They have planted their men in spots so we cannot park closer”. Hugo nodded as one of his men gave him the detailed report. “Are you sure our tagret it here?” Luca asked in his earpiece. “Yes Boss. The signals are blinking inside”. He affirmed. “We need to be in touch and proper co-operation from everyone required. Shoot anyone you see, leave Vittori for me. And search the area if we get any hold of Caterina”. Hugo ordered everyone on the coms. “Let's go Boss”. Luca gestured him to move as his men made a barricade and marched towards the warehouse. .They were trying to be as quiet as t

Chapter: Chapter 25Chapter 25 stmCaterina didn't know what time or day it was. She had not seen her papa again. She would get a meal once a day and water. She faced so much humiliation and embarrassment when she first time asked for a washroom break. She had to pee in front of those lustfilled dirty gazes but she had no other choice. Her clothes were torn and dirty at places. She didn't know if her father bluffed about asking ransom money from Hugo or if he was even interested to pay that much amount for her? Her arms and legs would pain continuously and she was sure she would have caught infection. The swelling around her eyes were less than before and she could picture then in ugly shades of yellows and purples. Her lip and cheeks were cured on their own feeling the crusty skin around them, but everytime she would stretch her lips, she would feel the coppery taste of blood on her tongue. At this point all she could do was pray in her heart to either be rescued from this awful place or die. There

Chapter: Chapter 24Chapter 24 stmCaterina woke up with a groan. Her body was aching. Her head was throbbing. Her eyes were swollen and she could feel something sticky on her cheeks and head. She tried to touch herself but her hands were tied and so were her feet. She looked around to see if she could find out where she was but her eyes didn't allow her much to see. She hung her head lose and tried to remember what happened. She had closed the cafe sooner than she expected because it was all remolded and ready to be open again and she had it all planned. She ordered two coffees from the cafe nearby and thought to take a walk home when she felt someone tapping on her shoulder. “Yes”. She turned to see a girl standing behind her. “Do you mind if you have a change of ten dollars?” Caterina smiled at the girl and nodded her head but the next thing she knew, she was hit hard on her head and before she could see who it was, she was hit again and she lost her consciousness. She didn't know how much time
