GABRIEL’S POVIt had been more than ten minutes, and Kiera still hadn’t returned. Ten minutes in the restroom? That’s suspicious. Unless she’s making a baby or trying to escape— Oh crap! My eyes flew open, realization hitting me like a freight train, as I dashed towards the restroom.Without hesitation, I burst into the women’s washroom, my heart pounding.“Kiera!”I called out, but the dead silence sent my heart racing. I checked the four restroom stalls, but she was nowhere to be found.Then something caught my eye on the sink—a purse, and I recognized it immediately.Snatching it, I confirmed it belonged to Kiera. But why leave her purse behind if she was trying to escape? Suddenly, it all clicked. This wasn’t an escape; this was an abduction. I felt a jolt in my gut, and without wasting another second, I rushed back to the VVIP lounge.“Damien!” I shouted, my voice cutting through the thumping music.He turned to me, his brows creasing in confusion. “Kiera’s been taken,” I roared
A Contract For Revenge TWENTY-FIVE
KIERA’S POVI nervously paced my room, biting my finger as my anger simmered. Enough is enough. I was done being the victim, the prey, or whatever Gabriel calls it. Living in fear was no longer an option.Gabriel had instructed me to stay in my room when we returned, and since then, I hadn’t seen a shadow of either him or Damien, and I was burning to know what they were doing to the wretch who had abducted me.Most people say when your head isn’t in the right place, your brain hits snooze Well, talk to me directly. Without thinking twice, I stormed out of my room.I approached Gabriel’s door and knocked, but there was no response. I tried Damien’s room next, but it was just as silent.As if it was planned, Lewis appeared, and we were on the same page—looking for Gabriel.“Hey, have you seen Gabriel?” I asked, urgency in my voice.“No, I’m looking for him too,” Lewis replied, pulling out his phone.He dialed Gabriel’s number, but it went straight to voicemail.“That’s odd. Gabriel doesn

KIERA’S POVI lay motionless on my bed, my eyes wide on the ceiling, watering as I had been in that position for God knows how long. I had been numb ever since, unable to comprehend why anyone’s sister would want them dead. Isn’t blood thicker than water anymore? I desperately wanted this to be a dream, one that would end with me going back to papa, to find Elise and Dahlia sitting on the couch and plotting another way to make my life a living hell. Even though I dreaded that life, I longed for it now. At least I’d be free of the crushing realization that my sister is a monster! Like a tsunami, the pain had been crashing into me ever since.I recall when Elise was ten years old, and I, thirteen. She was one of the smallest in her class and often bullied, time and again, she would tell everyone that I wasn’t her sister, but I still defended her from all her bullies to the point where I was cornered and beaten, yet I never gave up on her, but she never appreciated anything I ever did fo

MIGUEL’S POVI was on my way to the warehouse to check on the shipment that was supposed to arrive today when I got a call from Joe. “We’ve retrieved the diamonds boss,” Joe reported.My eyes suddenly flew wide, “What? How did you—”“Tracked down some of Lucas’s relatives. His third cousin let slip that he has a sick mother in Brooke City. It was an easy grab; didn’t take much convincing to get her to hand over the diamonds.” he reported, his voice steady.“So where are they now?” I asked, straightening myself.“They’re in the vault boss,” he confirmed.“Good job, Joe. This calls for a celebration. Now, we can meet with the Russians. I’m on my way to the warehouse to check on the shipment, you could meet me there.” I said, ending the call.Ugghh! Good news like this never hurts anyone. I don’t know why they’re so difficult to come by. Throwing my head back, I relaxed in the back seat, imagining all the things I could achieve with both the Russians and South Coast cartel by my side, a

DAMIEN’S POVThe night was surprisingly warm, so I decided to take a quick dip before dinner. After a hectic day filled with back-to-back board meetings, I could feel a headache creeping in, and a swim seemed like the perfect way to clear my mind. As I slid into the pool, I felt the cold waves of the water washing the day’s stress away, and I enjoyed every stroke that I made, feeling lighter with every movement.I went deep into the water, submerging myself fully while I held my breath for about a minute, and suddenly, I saw a figure standing above me. I popped my head up to find Evans, my Intel man, looking down at me.Swimming to the edge of the pool, I brushed the beads of water off my face, my legs still dangling in the water.“What do you have for me, Evans?” I posed inquisitively.“A few of my colleagues said they spotted her in Haven City, but I’m yet to confirm that rumor,” he relayed.My face instantly went sour, “You know better than to dwell on rumors. Find out if she’s ac
A Contract For Revenge TWENTY-NINE
KIERA’S POVI changed quickly, blow-drying my hair before applying some lip gloss and mascara. I threw on a casual mini-dress and headed to the dining hall. Gabriel and Damien were already waiting surrounded by a few house staff and all eyes fell on me the moment I walked in, causing my steps to falter.Gabriel had saved a seat for me, right between him and Damien and as I approached the table, simultaneously, they stood to pull out the chair for me. My heart did a backflip, as I noticed Gabriel’s curious gaze locking on Damien, who hastily retreated to his seat, feeling the pressure of his brother’s gaze.An uneasy smile formed on my face as I nodded in appreciation to Gabriel, settling into my chair.Once he returned to his seat, the staff started serving the dishes, and the room fell into an uncomfortable hush, broken only by the sound of clattering silverware and utensils.As I took a bite, I couldn't resist sneaking a look at Damien. Our eyes met, and he winked at me, and I smile
A Contract For Revenge THIRTY
KIERA’S POVI woke up today with an unusual lighthearted feeling, almost giggly. I couldn’t pinpoint the reason, but maybe it was the events of yesterday still dancing in my mind.Just as I finished getting dressed, a knock at my door interrupted my thoughts. I went to answer it and found Gabriel standing with a package in his hand.“Can I come in?” He requested calmly.“Sure,” I responded, fiddling with my dress.“Please change into this, you’re coming with me to the office today,” he said handing the package to me.My brows suddenly scrunched, “Why? I have nothing to do there,” I responded.“As my fake fiancé or whatever, it’s important for you to be familiar with our companies and business operations,” he added.“Oh, I see,” I nodded slowly.Opening the package, I discovered an additional box tucked inside, and I peeled it open, only to find a phone in it.“You got me a phone?” I asked, my excitement hitting the roof.“I thought it would come in handy and keep you entertained. Plu
A Contract For Revenge THIRTY-ONE
KIERA’S POVAs I followed Linda to the kitchen, I marveled at the space. It was too luxurious for an office—marble countertops, sleek stainless steel appliances, and an air filled with the rich aroma of freshly brewed coffee. But the atmosphere felt tense, like a storm waiting to break.Linda glanced at me, a smug smirk playing on her lips.“You sure you can handle making coffee? It requires a level of skill I’m not sure you possess,” she said, sarcasm dripping from her voice.I forced a smile, choosing to ignore the jab, “I appreciate your concern, but I think I’ll manage.”Linda leaned closer, lowering her voice as if sharing a scandalous secret. “Just remember, this isn’t your playground. You’re stepping into a world of real professionals.”My jaw tightened, but I maintained my composure, “Funny, you’d think a ‘real professional’ would encourage teamwork rather than throwing shade.”Linda’s eyes narrowed, “You think you can just waltz in here because you’re Gabriel’s what? His pet?
