Max snapped out of his thoughts and hurriedly pulled away from Lily.“A… are you okay?” He asked and held her shoulder, Lily breathed heavily and nodded in response. She looked up at Max and he noticed she was crying already.“Hey, it's okay.” He said softly and tried to move closer to her but he heard footsteps approaching them, he stopped immediately and took a step back from her.Axel got to them and before he could say anything, Max walked away. Axel stood in front of Lily as she cried and tried to catch her breath.“Are you okay?” He asked and she shook her head in response, she tried to wipe her tears but they kept falling, at that point, the death of the Russians wasn't the only reason she was crying, she kept thinking about everything relating to death, including her father. “I want to go home.” She muttered and sniffed.“I am not done yet.” Axel replied.“Then tell Max to take me home.” She said and glanced at Max who looked like he was lost in thought as he stood next to A
Lily folded her arms and looked out the window as Axel drove, as upset as she was, she still admired everything Axel drove past that she thought was beautiful. It was late already, Lily was tired, upset, and hungry. She made sure she didn't talk to Axel all day even though it was really hard for her, she was mad at him for letting her stay and see things she wasn't supposed to see. She couldn't wait till they got home so she could have dinner and finally get some rest.After what seemed like forever to her, Axel drove into the mansion and parked the car. Immediately, she got out of the car and entered the house. She didn't bother to go up to her room to change into comfortable wear, she headed straight to the dining room.Dinner was already ready, she took a seat immediately and started to eat. She wasn't expecting Axel and he also didn't show up till she was done with her meal. She headed to her room when she was done, due to how exhausted she was, she changed her clothes, lay on
“Hurry.” Lily heard a distant voice say as she kept seeing different faint lights. Her eyes kept opening and closing on their own. She couldn't control them, she couldn't control any part of her body. She felt numb.“She needs immediate surgery.” Another voice said and she saw blurry faces of people dressed in a blue dress. “Lily.” She heard another voice call her name, she couldn't recognize whose voice it was, she wasn't processing anything at the moment. “It is okay, you will be fine.” Another voice said as her eyes closed and she passed out. **********“It's morning already, she isn't showing any signs of waking up.” Nora whispered to Max as she watched Lily from where they were seated, Max was also staring and he shrugged in response to Nora’s question. “We just have to stay positive.” He replied, keeping his voice low too.Nora turned to Max and poked him, he turned to her and gave her a questioning look.“He hasn't looked away from her since she was brought into the ward.”
“I will help you with that.” Nora said to Lily as she tried to put on her jacket by herself. “Thank you.” Lily muttered in response as Nora took the jacket from her and helped her in putting it on. It was night already and Lily had already been discharged, according to the doctor, she would be fine. Luckily, her injury was just minor because it was at the upper part of her stomach. The knife missed her lungs and every other vital organ. All she had to do was use her drugs at the proper time so she would be healthy again.“Where is Axel?” Lily asked as Nora pulled her up gently. Ever since Axel left in the morning, he hasn't returned yet and Lily was worried.“He is at home already, he is waiting for you.” Nora replied and she smiled a little.They both walked out of the ward but at a slow pace because Lily couldn't walk normally. Thirty minutes passed and they arrived at Axel’s estate, Nora drove into the mansion and parked the car. She and Nora walked out of the house and headed
“W… what?” Max stuttered.“Did you get my question? Is sex better with just pleasure? Or is it just better with pain and pleasure?” She asked again and Max chuckled nervously.“I don't know.” He replied and Lily bit her lip. “Oh, okay.” She replied. She was about to ask him another question when she heard footsteps, they both turned to the stairs to see Axel. He got to them and gave Max a questioning look. He wasn't expecting him. “What are you doing here?” Axel asked Max.“I came to inform you about a new deal I found.” Max replied and Axel sighed.“I need a fucking break.” He muttered.“Then take one.” Lily replied and he turned to her.“If you need a break, take one. After all, you have people working for you.” She added and Axel turned back to Max.“What is the deal… ““She is right though. If you need a break, take one.” He cut Axel off.“If I take a break, who will run the business?” “I will. I can handle it.” He replied and Axel shook his head.“No, I am not taking a break
Lily and Axel walked towards the car waiting for them as a few guards trailed behind them. Axel brought a few men alone with him, one can never be too careful. Lily kept giggling and was restless as they walked, Axel held her hand and she turned to him with a smile.“Stay calm, okay?” He said and she nodded excitedly, Axel shook his head at her childish attitude. They got to the car and entered, the guards entered the other car waiting too. The chauffeur drove and Lily looked outside the window to watch the amazing view as they passed. “Axel.” She called with a smile and turned to him, Axel raised his brow at her, giving her a questioning look. “Everywhere is so beautiful. Where are we heading to now?” She asked.“A hotel.” He replied and she smiled before looking out the window again. Axel used his thumb to crease her hand, he forgot he was still holding her. He wasn't ready to let go of her and Lily wasn't ready to let go of him too. After a few minutes' drive, they arrived at
“Why do I need… “ Lily trailed off as Axel suddenly got on her, her eyes widened as he pinned both of her hands to the bed.“Axel wh… what are you doing?” She stuttered.“You asked me to show you.” He replied and she gulped. Axel could see the fear in her eyes, he wondered why she was scared out of the blue. Wasn't she so curious before?He wanted to stop and let go of her but he was too turned on to let her go, it was really difficult for him all night. He resisted every urge to touch her. He knew he was going to hurt her if he went on. He wasn't going to be gentle with her. “Axel.” Lily called in fear as she watched him run his eyes on her body. She noticed he was staring at her boobs and she also look down at her boobs. She realised the cloth was a little transparent which meant he could see her boobs through it. Lily looked up at him again and noticed his eyes were filled with lust, the same look he had the night they had a one-night stand. Before Lily could speak up again, he
Axel paid for everything Lily bought and they both walked out of the store with Axel helping her carry the bags out. He placed the bags in the back seat and they both entered the car. Axel ignited it and drove into the streets.Lily kept glancing at Axel as he drove, she was so curious to know what he and the female employee were talking about but at the same time, she wanted to ignore it. She wanted to act like she didn't care. She couldn't hold it anymore, so she decided to ask.“What were you discussing with that employee back at the store?” She asked and Axel glanced at her.“Nothing much or interesting. Just random stuff about the store.” He replied and she furrowed her brows. That was obviously a lie.“A random stuff that involves her writing down her phone number for you?” She asked and Axel turned to her. He noticed a stern look on her face which surprised him.“It's nothing, Lily.” He said and she rolled her eyes.“Of course.” She scoffed and turned away from him. Axel was
