Brandon's POVThe fact that she thought she could call the cops on me was very laughable and infuriating at the same time; not her smartest decision."Sit!" I ordered, looking down at a familiar pair of hazel eyes, who just glared up at me in silence.I had dragged her all the way to my room, and shut the door, after she decided to make a scene in front of my men, yelling something about me murdering her father and her bestfriend."I will not sit until you..." She was saying, before I pushed her down on my bed, shutting her up instantly.I dragged a chair from nearby, placing it in front of her, and sitting myself down. Her widened eyes and trembling lips were indications of how scared she really was, but somehow, she still found the boldness to challenge me."You know..." I started, looking into her eyes."You're not a really smart girl." Her face contorted into an irritated frown at my words. I leaned back on my seat, enjoying how pissed I was making her."If you had called the cop
Danielle's POVIt's been two days, since Brandon left abruptly in the middle of a make out session with me. One minute he was all over me, setting my body ablaze with his touch and the next, he just walked out of his room, leaving me flushed and gasping for breath. I couldn't understand that man, and as much as I hate to admit, it disturbed me. He should have never touched me, if he didn't have the intention of doing anything. I spent most of last night, thinking dirty and touching myself. Too many times, I had wondered how his cock would feel inside me. I know I'm not exactly "experienced", but he is, and a part of me was looking forward to all those dirty fantasies of his.I tried to force myself not to think of him too much, though. He was probably fucking some other girl right now.School days like this were really boring without Sam, and I found myself missing him even more. I usually spend most of my time in the library, like always. Today wasn't an exception; I had been in the
Brandon's POVI fucking had her! I had her, but for some reason, I couldn't proceed to do all the dirty things I've always had in mind; dirty things that she was obviously craving.Fuck! I should have made her scream my name for hours, but I chickened out. It's been two days and I was still so mad at myself for that. I haven't been able to face Danielle, since then. "Spread them." I grunted out to the naked woman, lying before me. She and a few others had been keeping me company, throughout my stay in this hotel.She happily obliged, a small seductive smile, tugging at her lips.My eyes ran down her hourglass shaped body, lingering a bit longer on her full breasts. She had a physique that was almost similar to Danielle's; almost, but not as perfect.Her hand reached out to stroke my hardened cock, and I closed my eyes, relishing the feeling."Mmm... ready to sink this badboy inside me, aren't you?" She purred seductively.I roughly grabbed her neck, eliciting a gasp from her, as she
Danielle's POVThe stench of stale cigarettes and a really itchy feeling on my back, made me open my eyes.I had been tied to a chair in this awful place for hours, and I really needed to pee. Faint scuffling sounds could be heard from around me, making me tense up, all of a sudden. It was too dark for me to see anything, and judging by the chirping of insects, I was sure it was late at night already.A slight wave of panic had started to wash over me, and I began to trash desperately in my seat . Where the fuck are the cowards who did this to me? Why weren't they here? Did they abandon me here like they did to Sam?"Aaaaaarrgh!" I let out a blood curdling scream, as something crawled over my feet."Let me out of here, please!!!" I continued shouting, as my voice echoed through the seemingly empty room.I should never have believed that lying bitch, Mia. I should have known she was up to something. Why was I so eager to "help" her carry out her stupid plans?I felt hot tears running
Brandon's POVI sat with one leg crossed over the other, on a chair in my main living room, smoking a large cigarette to calm my nerves.I lazily watched Micheal, as he beat the shit out of Pietro for letting Danielle out of his sight. My hands and fingers were itching to join in on the action, but I refrained myself. I needed to be as calm as possible, to come up with a solution.Tired of watching Pietro being beaten, I signalled for Micheal to stop. Pietro was held up on his knees by two other of my men. His hands were cuffed, and his shirt was stained with blood. His face has several swellings, and he looked to be very exhausted. I stared down at him, from where I sat, allowing him to catch his breath. Many thoughts were racing through my mind, but I tried my best to stay calm. Maybe I might come up with something, after having a word with him."You had one job, Pietro." I said, finally putting the cigarette away and looking directly at him."And you know I don't appreciate slip
Danielle's POVIt all began to make sense to me now, how Jordan was suddenly interested in me, how he knew I worked as a stripper. Mr. Cox had threatened me back then, that he was going to get back at me for ruining business for him. Jordan was the tool he used to accomplish that mission. They've both been working together, all along.I looked down, as hot urine ran down my legs for the second time tonight. I was exhausted from yelling out my lungs and thrashing violently in this goddamned seat.Mr. Cox left a couple hours ago; something about going to meet with Brandon, and negotiate the terms of my release. I realized he led a small, armed gang of his own, of which Jordan and his friends were among. They were planning to leave the city tonight, knowing fully well that Brandon would definitely be after them. That thought brought a weird smile to my face."This bitch has finally lost it." Chase, one of Jordan's friends remarked, glaring down at me."The fuck is she smiling about?" Ste
Brandon's POV"Boss! We have Danielle." Michael announced through the phone, making me sigh in releif."Take her home. I'll deal with Cox myself." I replied, hanging up and looking at the building before me.This was the place described in the address, and I wasn't surprised that Cox would want to meet up in a place like this. It was his own bar, afterall.I casually adjusted my collar, before heading right for the main entrance. Two burly men stood at the door, menacing looks on their faces. They hastily gave way for me to enter, which I did.The bar was filled up tonight, with people drinking, smoking and basically having their idea of a good time. None of them seemed notice my presence, which was good for me, because I was here on a serious business.I lit up a cigarette, as my eyes slowly scanned the place for Cox. I finally saw him sitting at the counter, taking a few shots of whiskey. Maybe he knew I had arrived, but he didn't show it, didn't turn around to flash me his stupid,
Danielle's POVI ran down the dark flight of stairs, as Anissa followed closely, calling out to me from behind."Miss Owens! You can't be down there." She whined in protest, but I paid her no heed.I needed to see Brandon, and I needed to see him now. I needed to know what he's been up to for the past twenty four hours, I needed to know why he didn't come to get me himself. Why did he even bother to send Micheal and Sam for me, if he'll only end up avoiding me still? "Miss Owens?!" Anissa persisted, and I found myself picking up my pace, as we arrived in some sort of basement.I heard distant groans, and I perked up at the sound immediately, looking towards where it was coming from.Anissa was suddenly in front of me, obstructing me from going any further. "You need to turn back now." She said, her demeanor turning dead serious. I hadn't been in these parts of the mansion, and it was clear that they were hiding something down here."This place is off bounds." She stated."Then why i
Danielle's POVHe came back to me! Brandon came back to me, after six months in a coma, after six months of helplessly waiting for a miracle. He made my nightmares disappear with just his presence."Momma!" My four years old son exclaimed, right before hugging my legs. From the looks of it, he went fishing again with his father.He looked up at me with his big, hazel eyes, and that was all I needed to confirm my suspicion. "Did you go fishing with your father again?" I asked, raising an eyebrow at him."Um...Aurora also came with us?" He confessed, making me roll my eyes, before bending down to meet his height."I wasn't going to punish you, Austin!" I said, making him sigh visibly in relief."Come on! Go ahead and call your sister. Dinner is almost ready." I told him, ruffling his hair fondly.My son's eyes grew even wider, and his face went a bit pale. It was like he suddenly remembered something that scared the hell out of him."What is it, Austin?" I asked, as he suddenly held o
A/N: Alright, readers! Since we're coming to the end of this book, allow me to present y'all with a happy chapter, lol! I promise you won't be mad this time.]Danielle's POVThe beeping of different monitors and his steady breathing, were the only sounds that kept me company. It's been what? Six months since I last looked into his vibrant, blue eyes.My stomach was now bigger, as I was slowly nearing my delivery date. However, I didn't think I could do any of that without him, without Brandon.I let out a sniffle, like I had been doing for over a million times, taking his large hand in my smaller ones, and squeezing lightly."There you are, Danny! Come on and have your bath now!" Aunt Mallory called out from the doorway. Her and Oliver had come all the way from Ohio, as soon as they heard of Brandon's... incident. They've been keeping me company ever since."I don't want to!" I answered her stubbornly, not wanting to take my eyes off Brandon's unconscious body, even for a moment. He w
Danielle's POV:I didn't realize I'd stopped running, until someone grabbed me by my wrist, and my eyes widened in terror. It was that Calaveros man from earlier; Diaz."Where do you think you're going?" He grinned sinisterly at me, before attempting to drag me off to the direction of their minivan.I started yelling, punching, kicking and scratching as much as I could, but it only seemed to anger him, as he kept tugging at my wrist. I let out a gasp, as a bullet suddenly went through his head, splattering blood all over my face. I watched him fall to the ground with a thud, and I turned around to look for who fired the shot. It was Micheal, and he kept gesturing for me to keep running towards the car.Looking down at the corpse before me again, I suppressed the urge to gag. He had a gun on him, and I bent down to take it from his lifeless hand. I'd seen men using guns before, so it shouldn't be too hard for me, right?Brandon was now clearly winning, as he stood over Sam, who was br
Danielle's POVA fight to the death? What the hell was he thinking? What sort of barbaric, mafia tradition is that? Why is it even a thing?I was suddenly dragged down from the vehicle I'd been boarding, and my eyes immediately started searching for Brandon. We were now on some sort of old, abandoned bridge, and armed Calaveros men were everywhere. I was yet to spot Brandon, even as Sam slowly emerged from behind me. He was shirtless, giving me a much clearer view of his tattoo adorned body. I glared at him."What's the matter, Dee? Nervous?" He smirked at me.I made a move to lunge at him with an attack, but one of his men was quick enough to hold me back, making me groan out in frustration."You won't get away with any of this. I promise you!" I threatened. In that moment, I had finally realized what Sam truly is, who he truly is; an enemy!A minivan finally arrived at the bridge, and all attention were on it. Immediately it stopped, Brandon came out from the back, wincing slightly
Danielle's POVWith one arm around my neck, Sam forcefully dragged me along, towards the noise of the ongoing gun battle. He had a gun pointed to my head, which he used to threaten me to move. I struggled as much as I could, while he just kept laughing like some evil villain."No matter.... what...you do.." I managed to say, as his arms were literally choking me.He loosened up, when he realized I was saying something, and I took that opportunity to gasp for breath, before speaking."No matter what you do, Sam. I'll never love you." I spat at him.For a moment, I thought I saw the old Sam, the one I'd always trusted. His eyes widened in an emotion that resembled... regret? He was however quick to get rid of the look, as soon as it came."This isn't about you, anymore." He seethed, tightening his hold on my neck again and dragging me along.I continued to struggle against his hold, as I we moved closer to the direction of the gunfight.Soon, we were in some sort of courtyard, which w
Brandon's POV"I'm sorry Brandon, I should have told you earlier." Those were her last words, before Sam snatched the phone from her. He wasn't lying about her carrying my child. How could I be so careless and stupid?"Boss...it's a trap. You can't just go like that?" Micheal said to me, suddenly coming to stand in my way, as I had been moving towards my car."Move!" I growled at him, but he wouldn't budge. The rest of my men just stood, watching us in silence."You're not thinking straight, right now." Micheal complained."Of course I'm not. Didn't you hear that bastard? He has my family and he's threatened to harm them if I don't show up!" I yelled right into Micheal's face."He's trying to goad you!" Micheal argued."What will you have me do, then?" I yelled even louder."Will you prefer that I let them die?" "That's not what I said." Michael said, his voice cracking. I knew my words struck a nerve. His own family had been murdered in front of him, a long time ago. It was a very
Brandon's POVI was looking right at the scene before me, but I was too afraid to accept what might have happened. There was need for a closer inspection.This was obviously one of my cars, and it was destroyed almost beyond recognition. My legs moved me faster towards the scene, as I feared the worst. Anissa and Danielle aren't in there, right?"This is bad!" One of my men said, as he approached me, Micheal following right behind me.My men had found this scene first, in their search for Anissa and Danielle, who were supposed to be on their way to join me for tonight's date. They contacted me, and I had begun running here, as fast as I could."We found two bodies, boss. They are badly burnt, but we were still able to save what we can." Micheal announced, making me hold my breath for a second. He just said "two bodies"!"Let me see them." I grunted, shoving Micheal out of my way, as I advanced towards the scenery. It wouldn't be long before the cops show up, so we needed to be quick h
Danielle's POVPanic coursed through me, as Sam finally closed the gap between us. I found myself backing away from him and turning around to make a run for it. All my warning bells were ringing like crazy, and I knew something unpleasant was about to happen.I instinctively ran towards Anissa, who had been standing there all along. I tried to drag her along with me, but she suddenly pushed me to the ground with one swift motion, leaving me more stunned than terrified.I now had beach sand all over my face, as I raised up my head to look at her. I searched her eyes, and I was taken aback by the look of indifference in them. She looked down at me with so much coldness, I couldn't recognize her anymore. That was when I started making sense of what was happening."I've done what you asked." She said, finally facing Sam, who had a gleeful look in his eyes."You wanted her, she's here." Anissa said again, pointing at me, as I remained in my spot, too stunned to move."I can see that!" Sam
Danielle's POVTonight I was finally going to let Brandon know. I was going to let him know that I was carrying his child; our child.I already had a whole week to think about it and now I was convinced that telling him might not be such a bad idea, afterall. The possibility of starting a family with him, got me so excited and I just couldn't wait.I looked at my reflection in the mirror with so much joy, thinking about the many things that had happened in my life to bring me right to this very moment. My hands instinctively reached out to touch my stomach, rubbing it soothingly, as my smile widened.I still couldn't believe that there was a new life forming inside me. It made me look at life in a whole new perspective and I just wished Brandon would see things the same way too."Now that's one hell of a dress." Anissa said softly, as she emerged from behind me.She had been the one taking care of me more closely than any other member of Brandon's staff. She was very protective of me
