.I pushed the door to my home office open and saw Kevin seated, waiting for me. “You couldn’t come find me?” I asked him, rounding off the other corner of my desk.If he didn’t come to the kitchen to find me, then whatever this little meeting is, would really be one hell of an important issue. Kevin shook his head. “I was in a hurry. Plus, I think it’s best we talk in the confines of your office.”I sat down and stared at him. “Privacy huh.” Resting my back on the armrest, I tipped my head at him. “Alright, let’s hear it.”There was silence from his end. For a few seconds, the both of us did absolutely nothing but stare at each other. Then Kevin opened his suit jacket and brought out a white envelope. He dropped it on my table with a concerned smile.“What’s that?” I asked, pointing to the envelope on my desk.“Open it.” He instructed.No one speaks to me like that. Not even my father. But I guess there was much more at stake

AMBER'S POV.I didn't see Emmett leave the house. But he made Wynne tell me he had an emergency and Rachel was coming to keep me company while he was away. That brought me some calm.I had just finished taking a shower when I heard Rachel's voice at the stairs yelling my name. "Oh, Lord." I murmured, imagining the endless chatter I was about to face. But I loved it anyway.A knock came on my room door, and immediately I called her in. Rachel bounced into my room. "Bestie!" She screamed so happily and made that favorite small dance of hers."Bestie!" I shouted back and wiggled my hips in an attempt to mimic her dance steps."Christ! you need more dance lessons." Rachel chuckled."I know, right?" I replied, giving her a hug. "I'm so happy you came.""I wouldn't miss the chance to see you for any reason in the world." We separated, and she took a seat on my bed. "You look happy today. Is there any reason for that?"“Hmmm, no." I shrugged. "I'm just happy to see you.""Yay!" she exclaime

EMMETT’S POV.Rachel was still around when I got home. I could hear their laughter from the living room. Completely downcast and upset, I headed straight to my room, pushed my body on the bed, and possibly dozed off at some point.A babble of laughter surrounded me. It was unrestrained and endless, like that of a baby, extremely happy and excited. I stood beside the silhouette of this baby and kept making funny faces to get him or her to laugh even more. Then suddenly, a powerful arm started pulling me away from the baby. It was persistent and strong that I was soon taken away and the baby’s endless cries kept echoing nonstop in the room I left him or her in.Instead of fading out, the cries kept increasing in intensity until my eyes flew open. I was still lying on my bed, but my body was slick with sweat. I realized I was dreaming.I was dreaming about a baby, my baby and the pains he or she would go through if I’m absent in their life. “God.” I gasped and looked around me. The ro

Amber's hands in front began to move across the muscles of my torso and then downwards into my pants. She gripped my cock and began to pump it, gently at first but then increasingly faster until she settled into sweet, rhythmic strokes. I clenched my eyes shut and reveled in the feel of pleasure coursing through my veins. She managed to coax out all of the tension from my limbs like she knew exactly what I needed in that moment without even having to say a word. 'God, I've fallen for this woman. Hook, line and sinker.' Needing to see her beautiful face, I caught her hand and turned around to gaze at the woman before me. She was a goddess, my goddess. Yes, mine. Her skin looked even more perfect. Her eyes sparkled and as I stared down at her, I felt something shift in my chest. Before I could pay too much attention to analyze what it was, she tilted her head and took my lips in a deep kiss. My heart slammed painfully into my chest at the contact and it fueled a craving in me. Hold

AMBER'S POV.I was in the sitting room with Rose, we were both trying to decide on the best helium balloon colors to opt for against the intimate surprise birthday party I was planning for Emmett. Thanks to Rose and Wynne, I was able to get the information about Emmett's birthday that he never celebrates and had never been at home for until hopefully this year. Since he is going to be a new year birthday celebrant, we wanted to settle for colors that suggest new beginnings. We finally decided to work with white, lavender, orange and Emmett's favorite color, purple. Having settled for a color palette, we started surfing through various cake designs I would bake with Rose. Then, my phone started buzzing.It was a call from Emmett. Sitting on one of the chairs in the room, I picked the call. My chest felt fluttery and strange. "Amber." Emmett's deep, smooth voice said into my ear. I shut my eyes as I appreciated the voice of this man. "Emmett." I answered and opened my eyes, only to

I felt the voice in the way a woman feels when she realizes she's about to lose her grocery money to some inevitable thieves. The voice belonged to Leila. I knew it even before looking up.When I looked up at her, she was beautiful. Her dazzling blue dress clung to her sexy figure. "Leila," Emmett said and rose to his feet for her. I had to lower my head because I couldn’t trust what my expression would reveal. "What are you doing here?" He asked her."You didn't tell me you'll be coming to our favorite restaurant even though we spent the whole day together." I heard her say.I knew the game she was trying to play. I knew what she was trying to do. A sensible me should not let her words get to me. But I wasn't sensible at the moment."You didn’t ask," he replied simply. Was he flirting with her right in front of me? I saw crimson-red blurry lines in front of me. It was so pathetic that I wanted to scratch Leila's eyes out. In order not to embarrass myself, I got to my feet. "Exc

EMMETT'S POV.Leila managed to distract me from the real reason I came to the restaurant and I was stupid enough to fall for it. When I finally glanced impatiently at the empty seat next to me. I felt ridiculous. What the hell have I done? I brought her out for dinner, made her dress so beautifully for me, and I now I did this. Was I truly this stupid?"Keep your hands to yourself, Leila," I warned when I realized that my focus on Amber's empty seat sort of made her more daring."Fine." She whined, "Well, I'll see you tomorrow then.""What's happening tomorrow?" I asked, scanning the possible places Amber might have gone while I wasn't paying attention."The result will be in tomorrow. I thought you were informed?"I couldn’t sit still. I felt agitated and even angsty. "No, I wasn't. But I'll see you there." I snapped, rose from my seat, and strode out of the room. I could see Wynne and one of the new guys I made him hire since the episode with Denver. They were hanging around the

AMBER'S POV.When I woke up in the morning, Emmett was nowhere to be found. But I was still in his room. We may have slept off at some point last night and he carried me to bed.I checked my phone and saw a text from him. He stopped at home to see his father and would be back as by evening.I checked the time and almost fell off the bed. It was 8:34 am, and I had a cake baking with Rose to get to..A couple of minutes later, I was in the kitchen with Rose who was almost done with the cake. Wynne walked in with a box of deliveries: helium balloons and a few earthy decor pieces. I set to work immediately, decorating only a part of the dining room. I had Wynne be on the lookout for when Emmett would get back and stall him for at least three extra minutes..At 4:56 pm, Emmett’s car entered the compound. The dining table was set with his birthday cake, and several appetizing meals scooped and covered in big serving bowls.I was putting on a silk singlet and lacey crystal-stoned palazzo

Emmett growled and lifted me from his lap to sit me on the center table. While he was still bent toward me, I grabbed his dick through his pants. He grabbed my wrist, pulling my hand away from him. ‘the first time’ He was fighting... He was fighting himself and his feelings. I pulled my hand from his loose grip and slipped it into his pants. I stroked his dick and looked him in the eyes as he grew in my palm. “Don’t fight yourself, Emmett,” I whispered in the most erotic voice I’ve ever used on anybody. As if he needed to be told that, he lowered his mouth to my ear. “Yes, Amber.” He said. His hand slipped into my top and beneath my bra to grab my breast. He teased my nipple between his fingers as he continued. “Tell me you want it, Amber. Tell me what you want from me,” He said, finally taking control. “Mmm,” I moaned. “I want... Yes, please.” “What do you want?” His fingers kept playing with my nipples while he slowly waited for my response.

"Now, I'll ask you again, Amber. What do you know about us?" He asked, positioning his hand like an imaginary cuff, very close to my neck. "I don’t know anything," I swore to him. But then he brought his fingers closer and squeezed, cutting off the possible air I could manage to get. "Please," I said, pulling uselessly at my bound hands. "I don’t know anything else." "I heard you were kidnapped a couple of weeks ago. Is that true? He asked. "No. That's not true." I replied."It's not?" He asked, frowning."Yes, it's not," I replied."I also heard someone broke into your room a couple of days ago. Is that a lie too?""Yes." I breathed out."Would you swear on your life that these things didn't happen?" "They didn't happen," I replied, sounding so sure."And your roommate, did she see anything?"I shook my head. "She didn't.""Are you sure about that?""A hundred percent," I replied. Finally, his hold on my throat reduced to a bearable extent.He knew all of these things happened.

A shudder passed over me forcing me to push myself up. "Oh, she's good now," said the tall guy. "Can I remove the blindfold?" I asked. "No. It was nice of you to ask. I told you she’d cooperate," Jonathan muttered. "Are you all right, Amber?" He asked.I nodded, getting more comfortable in the seat. "Don’t worry," the guy behind the wheels said, "We won’t hurt you. Not like that." "Thank you for the assurance." I whispered and pulled my nightgown down to cover my thighs better.""We aren't looking, either," Jonathan assured me. "None of us are looking.""Yeah, the tall guy said. "I've got my own girlfriend to torment." He sighed."You all do." The guy behind the wheels announced. "I think she needed to hear that too." He muttered. "Is Francis here?" I asked. "No," Jonathan answered. "But you'll see him soon. We're taking you to him." I stiffened. "He won't touch you, you have absolutely nothing to worry about," Jonathan added."But he has a problem with me. He didn't seem to l

The night felt like an infinity kind of night. I’ve had a lot of lonely nights in my lifetime, but tonight felt like the loneliest. Maybe I'm being dramatic. Maybe the night seems to be stretching forever because I’ve put all the other lonely nights in my lifetime out of my mind so I could move forward without all of that weighing me down. It took everlasting before my body felt exhausted enough to finally fall asleep. But I woke up abruptly, swatting at my arm on instinct. It felt like I'd been stung by an insect, or maybe a bug bit me. I could no longer feel my legs, so I reached for my blanket to throw it back so I could jump out of bed and check for any bugs on it.Only then did I realize that I couldn't feel my arms too. Not only that, my arms felt so heavy that they couldn't pick up the blanket, nor could my legs move. My eyes widened in horror as I tried again to pick up the blanket. But I couldn't I became confused. Then my gaze jumped to movements in the shadows in my ro

When I got back to Emmett's house, I didn't have the words to explain how I was feeling. Guilty, tense, and stupid. Why am I still with him? Security is a lame excuse because if that is the case, I could even hire a bodyguard with the kind of money in my account. If I go out there physically for house hunting, I would definitely get a nice apartment in a day or two. So, what exactly is my excuse to keep staying with Emmett?I met him in the living room and when he saw me, he was immediately worried. "Amber," he called, "something is wrong, tell me what."I shook my head, "Nah, everything’s great." "But?"I tried to internally figure out where the hell to go from here. I didn't want to stay here anymore. I don’t even know how I feel about Emmett anymore."The locks in my dorm room have been changed," I told him, hating how thick and emotion-filled my voice sounded. "I can’t imagine anyone attacking me again when news has it that I'm dating Emmett King." I could feel his gaze on me,

Gracie waited for a while, yet I said nothing. Then she continued. "I hope you do know that if any of them decide to murder you, nothing, absolutely nothing, would be done about it?" She asked, hoping she'd get a reply from me at this point. But I still said nothing.I wanted to say something, to defend myself at least. But the words weren't just coming. She was speaking again, so I tried to shift my focus and concentrate on what she was saying. "Anyway, since it seems this is the kind of life you want, I really wish you luck with all of this. I hope you make good decisions and stay away from these men because your life and affinity to live long actually depend on it. But I'd like to let you know that I can’t be involved in whatever you have going on. I don’t want to get mixed up with the people you’re mixed up with. I don’t want to be the next gunshot victim. I-I'm moving out of the dorm. I'll let student affairs know. Maybe they'll get you another roommate or something." "Oh..." T

Olivia sent me a couple of apartment videos and none of them came close to what I was looking for. Justin's recommendations were even better. The more she sent them, the shittier they got. I soon gave up, and she promised to get more videos or maybe take me to see more places in the coming week. So I eased up and got busy with my books. Emmett was home in his study, getting a couple of things done. On days like this, I tend to forget how young he is, with the amount of work he does and the dedication he puts in. He called my mom earlier and we spoke to her. Mom was happy that I was okay, and she discussed yesterday's game with Emmett. I was shocked to find out that they'd been speaking on the phone almost every day, even while I wasn't on talking terms with Em. My new phone finally rang for the first time since I officially launched it last night. It was Gracie. "Hey roomie, how are you?" I asked, picking up the call. She sighed. "I'm fine, but we need to talk." "Oh okay,

We ate dinner much later, after putting my old SIM card in my new phone and starting it up. Gracie's number kept going to voicemail each time I attempted to call. When I couldn't take it anymore, I convinced Emmett to take me to my dorm room, just to be sure Gracie wasn't there. He agreed, and when we got there, Gracie wasn't home, and from the look of things, it didn't seem like she had been there since the break-in. On our way back, I dropped a voicemail for her, asking if she was okay. And did the same via a text message. "What do you plan on doing this weekend?" Emmett asked as we drove off. "Check out some of the houses I'd possibly get. Shit! I need to drop a message to Olivia; she promised to send me a couple of options to choose from." "Olivia Tampa?" He asked. "Aston's sister, yes," I replied. "What if I offer you my place for rent? It has everything you need, and the security is topnotch." "Are you going to stay there with me?" I asked. He grinned and took a moment

When I finally got back to Emmett's home, it was evening already and I was totally exhausted. Wynne took the car keys to park the car. "Is Emmett home?" I asked him. "Just got back." He replied with a small smile. "Thank you," I said and paused. "Not just for now, for always. For your kindness. For saving me the other day. Emmett told me." "It's my job, Amber." He replied. "You don't have to thank me, at all." "Still." I persisted. "You're welcome then." I flashed him a smile, adjusted my backpack with one hand, then left for the house. After dropping my bag, I found Emmett in his home office, frowning at his computer screen. "Can I come in?" I asked, tapping at his door. When he lifted his face from the computer screen, he caught my eyes and a soothing smile spread across his face, warming my heart. "Please." He replied, gesturing to the empty seat in his office. "You seem busy," I noted. "I could go and maybe check on you later." He shook his head. "No, I'm good with

It felt like a weekend had passed since I last set foot on the campus. I left Emmett's home around ten in the morning after reconnecting with Rose and having her fill my ears with everything that happened after I left the house.It was so satisfying hearing her talk about how bitchy and irritable Emmett was all through.When I got to school, I wasn’t guarded and paranoid. Dread didn’t quicken my steps every time I rounded a corner or another student passed me too abruptly. It was a dull Friday morning and since I had only one lecture for the day.I was already discussing the fact that I was searching for an apartment with one of my coursemates, Justin. He was super helpful with a few listings and even offered to take me to see some of them.Unfortunately, they weren't exactly what I was looking for, as they didn't have front desks and standby security. When we got the news that the day's lecture had been postponed till the coming week, we left for the school canteen together.I got an
