ELENA

I laughed out loud at Colton’s joke as we threw stones into the water in front of us.

We had strolled and had found ourselves at another part of the lake, different from the area I had first seen him.

From where I stood, I could see the restaurant, and boy was it still booming with activity.

Didn’t they sleep here?

“You haven’t told me why you travelled all the way down here. Did you come for a vacation? Or an event?” Colton asked from beside me.

I immediately started to feel uneasy. Yikes. Why did he have to bring that up? We were having a great time, and now I had to answers questions about my life.

But what was I expecting?

It was going to come up sooner or later.

I bit my lip for a few moments, deciding on what answer was best. “I guess I could say I came for a vacation.” I finally said, tossing the remaining stone in my hand. The satisfying sound it made as it touched the water was like music to my ears. “I was giving a whole week off at my place of work, and…here I am.” I

    ELENA“Who were you talking to just now?” The deep baritone that pierced through the silence of the night was enough to make me jump. But I recognized who it was, even before I looked up to see a frowning Jason looking frown at me from the platform he was standing.Why was he outside by this time of the night? And why was he interrogation me with such a tone?“Nobody.” I answered nonchalantly and just ignored him, walking up to the stairs that would lead into my cabin. I was tired as hell. And all I wanted, was to lay down and sleep. That’s what I wanted…craved…But I was interrupted as Jason just jumped down casually from the platform and stalked towards me. That made me frown and stand rooted to the spot.“Who the hell was that, and why were you talking to him by this time of the night? Do you know what the time is?” The harshness of his voice, coupled with his words in general, got to me.What the heck was his problem?The air around him was really hostile, and I could tell from

    JASONFriday"Have you spoken with her since you left?" Tyler asked, giving me a look that told me that he was about to tell me off.I shook my head. I hadn't spoken to, or heard from Elena since I my crazy outburst the last time we spoke. I had regretted it every single minute since I left, and right now, I ached to see her, but I wasn't going to let my brother know that.No way in hell."No, I haven't." I answered meekly, setting my bag down and using my key card to open the door to my cabin.The scent of orchids filled the air, which I assumed was from the humidifier in the room. I actually liked it.Tyler followed on after me, folding his hands across his chest, as he had already sent his luggages to his own cabin."So, let me get this straight. You leave her on her own for days. And then you don't even call to check in. Yet you are on your honeymoon?" I didn't like the tone of his voice, as I knew it was meant to get to me.But guess what? It was getting to me."You and I know

    JASON "You know you didn't have to invite them for lunch right?" I adjusted the lapel of my suit, eyeing my appearance in the mirror in front of me. "There was absolutely no need for you to make the whole situation more obvious than it already is."Tyler, who I was talking to, made a non committal sound as he put on his tie. For some reason, he had chosen to dress up in my cabin. And I have a feeling it was mostly to annoy me."You and I know that Jane knows everything. Besides, it was all in a bid to give you the chance to talk to Elena, after your crazy stunt," he said, coming up beside me in front of the mirror. "You should he thanking me, instead of acting like it didn't work out in the end." The smug look on his face almost made me tackle him, just like I always did when we were kids.But he was saying the truth. At first, she had been reluctant to even say a word during the meal, but she had slowly come around, mostly talking to Tyler and Jane."And also," Tyler continued. "I g

    ELENA "You know you don't have to pull me too close, right?" I hissed as Jason drew me even closer, trying my best to appear happy in front of the paparazzi. As the cameras flashed, capturing us together, I could feel the heat of Jason's hand on my waist."How best would I show them how much I love my wife, if not this. And you better prepare for the kiss, because it's coming." He whispered back.I was still reeling from the meaning of the words he just casually threw my way, when he turned me on his arm, and pressed a light kiss on my lip, that went straight to my toes.I clung to the lapels of his suit to keep from falling, while I distinctly heard the crowd of reporters hoot and whistle as they seemed to enjoy the show Jason was putting.The kiss lasted for about four seconds before he was pulling away and looking straight into my eyes, with a soft smile playing on his lips."Shall we?" He asked, pretending like everything was normal and perfectly alright, while I was exploding on

    JASON“Elena, wait..” I whisper shouted as Elena shot up from her sit and made her way out of the hall. The eyes that immediately followed her, made me wince as I turned to Tyler, who was frowning at me.“What’s up?” He asked, holding on to Jane who was already trying to follow her friend out of the hall. I closed my eyes for a second, knowing there was no way in hell I was going to admit that her reaction was because I had stupidly giving into my foolish desires, right in the middle of an auction and where anyone could have seen us.“Listen, don’t wait for us, we are heading back to the cabin.” I replied my brother, and sighed at James questioning glare. “I’ll sort it out.” I don’t know who I was trying to reassure.Jake? Or myself?“Fine, I’ll take care of the donations then.” Tyler said, giving me a warning look that told me a whole lot than words would have.I nodded at him and made my way out of the hall, cringing as I got the same looks Elena got when she was literally flying o

    ELENAI stood up and faced Jason, wanting to see his face. How was I going to admit to him, that I had run away, because more than anything else in the world, I hand loved what his hands were doing.How was I going to explain the arousal that still coursed through my body as I stood in front of him currently?"Jason....why do you always do this?" I asked, staring straight into his eyes and holding his gaze with mine. The expression on his face was not one I was used to or had ever seen before, but it spoke volumes. I didn't want to read too much into it, because I didn't want to just get my hopes up for nothing.I needed to hear directly from the horse's mouth.Jason looked away for a second, before looking back at me and stepping closer.I hadn't realized that he was now on my side of the bench, because it was now only a few inches that separated us."Elena... I..." He started to say, but trailed off and combed his fingers through his hair in what looked like frustration.If he was

    ELENAThe moment the door closed, Jason and I were already fighting to get to each other. Hah!I moaned as soon as his lips touched mine, closing my eyes as the sensations coured through me. Never had I felt anything like this before in my entire life. And here I was, being kissed by the hottest man on the planet.I felt his hand start to go down, caressing my shoulders, then my back, and then finally, my butt.The action caused me to herk, pushing me further into him as he squeezed lightly.Heat.Good heat.That's what I felt as his literally molded my butt with his hand, cupping and squeezing as his lips held mine.Jason bit my bottom lip, prompting me to open up and when I did, his tongue slipped into my waiting mouth.Fuck.I was hungry.And it wasn't for food.I slipped my hands into his hair, bunching up the thick silcky mass of hair into my hands as I tilted my head to the corner to give him more access.He pulled away from my lips, but not long after, was trailing soft kisses

I heard him murmur and I bit my bottom lip to keep myself from screaming when I felt his hot lips on my pussy.Fuck.Jason started to move his finger, while his mouth did wonders and I screamed and thrashed about, unable to keep still."Cum for me, Elena..." Jason commanded, his breath hot against my pussy.Cum? Huh...?I was about to say something, when I felt something claw at me from inside, just before it exploded, sending sparks of pleasure all over my body.I collapsed on the bed, totally spent, and felt Jason's finger leave my pussy, before he came up to hover over me with a smile on his glistening lips.Those had to be my juices..I thought

    ELENAI smiled as I looked at my self in the mirror.It had been exactly two weeks since the incident with Colton, and we had resolved a lot of issues.Jason had come to confess to me about what he had hired Colton to do, and the truth was, even if I had been hurt hearing it from him, I had actually known about it. The night before that day, I had been having a very serious headache and had been on my way to the bedroom when I had heard him and Tyler argue about it.But I had also heard him say that he hadn’t gone through with it and had only kept Colton there.I had forgiven him then, because I couldn’t blame him. It wasn’t easy losing your father and then hearing that he had given everything he had to his assistant.Jason had even confessed that he hat thought that I was his father’s mistress and had cast it out of his kind the night we had made love for the first time.It had been a long discussion, but had actually settled a lot of things.And there was something Colton had said t

    JASONI didn’t want to believe what Lucinda was saying, but with everything that had been happening for the past few days, I couldn’t not believe her. I would be a fool to give Colton the benefit of a doubt.I had taken care of that man right from the time I had seen him looking all tattered and unkempt. And all that had been a ploy to extract money from me?Well now that he had taken the millions I gave him and the one that he had stolen from Elena. Why couldn’t he just let my family be?“And did he tell you why he was doing all of this to me and my family? Did he tell you why he tried to kill us?” I asked in a raised voice that sent Lucinda cowering away, and hiding her face behind the curtain of her straight blond hair.I had always known there was something off about her. The way she behaved. The way she spoke. The way she kept mostly to herself as if the whole world was against her or something. You had always known.I just hadn’t expected this.“No. I swear he didn’t. Most of th

    ELENAI didn’t have to stare at the picture for very long before I realized who it was. Even if I had seen his face only once, I could recognize him from anywhere.The eyes were a dead giveaway.Such dead eyes. Menacing eyes that looked like they had no soul.I could remember the first and only time I had seen his picture and had literally been scared of it the moment I set my eyes on him.It had to be him.“What do you mean by knowing who this man is?” It was Tyler who was asking and I turned to look at him.“Tyler, where is Lucinda?” I asked, lifting myself off Jason’s lap.The both of them looked at me in confusion as I went in search for Lucinda.“She just left. What does that have to do with anything?” Jason, who had gone completely silent, finally spoke, in a cool voice.I looked from Jason to Tyler and sighed, leaning on the kitchen counter as I recalled what had happened the day I had seen that face.“I am telling you, that that man in that picture, is Lucinda’s boyfriend.

    COLTONMy stomach hurt.I couldn’t breathe.I had been running for hours and hours as the police chased after me, showing up at every spot I tried to hide.How had this happened?I had planned everything. It had taken me weeks to do so, but I had put everything in place for the big day. Including all those distractions at Elena’s parents home, and the prank with the him.I had done everything to make sure things went according to plan. But Craig had spooked everything when he had gone inside and probably alerted the police and Jason about what was going on.This was not the first time I had gone to that bank to make a huge transaction. And it was a the fifth time either. But that idiot had chosen to make a big deal out of it. And I wasn’t going to forgive him for what he had done.By the time I was done with Jason and Elena, then i would go to Craig.Deep down though, I knew it was all because of that idiot. He had already made Craig’s transfer that huge sum to his Swiss account. And

    JASON“Are you trying to tell me that Colton is involved in this sham too? Because I find that very hard to believe.” Tyler, who was usually reasonable in situation like these, looked like he was about to lose it. And I didn’t blame him. I found it hard to believe too.It was crazy as fuck just thinking about it. In fact, I just wanted to go home and rest already.We had closed all activities today as the police went in search of Colton.He had escaped as soon as Craig had gone into that room to make that call.Probably had panicked when Craig spent a little over a few minutes in his bid to reach me.“I’m as confused as you are, Tyler.” I said, as the guilt that always ate me up began to resurface again.We were currently on our way home as we had closed really early and had decided to head home and wait for any news on the police chase that was going on right as we spoke.“Do you know if he had any kind of animosity towards you are something?” Jane asked from the seat opposite us.

    ELENAI couldn’t even believe what was going on as I looked from one brother to the next. What were the odds?I knew it definitely wasn’t a coincidence that the same to y Richardson was the one who had rendered my family broke beyond repair, and had run off with my fathers vast wealth, to go do whatever he liked with it. That was as far as I knew at the moment. My father had claimed that he had known nothing about his were abouts, until his death in that plane crash. “Something doesn’t just feel right about all of this.” Tyler said, looking from me, to Jason, who had gone really quiet ever since he had told me that Tony was his uncle.I cleared my throat and looked at them. “I mean, I’m not trying to say anything to worsen the situation or make anyone suspicious of anyone. But do you think the three of them knew each other?” I asked, staring pointedly at Jason. His frown had been increasing by the minute.“I don’t know, because the only person alive out of the three men, is Thomas.

    JASON“What are you talking about?” I asked Jane, dropping the file that I had picked up, babk in its place in the shelf.I made my way over to the computer with a huge frown on my face.What the heck did she mean by me having Elena’s father’s enemy’s picture in her phone?“This man right here.” Jane said, as soon as I reached and saw what she was talking about.But I was in for a shocker, and not just because of who she was pointing to, but what she had referred to him as. “But that’s my uncle.” I said, shaking my head. It was the picture I had taken at Elena’s fathers house with my phone. And since most of the things save in my phone went straight to my email, it automatically showed in my computer which had my email in it.And the picture was one of those things.Jane looked at me like I was mad. “No. I can recognize Tony Richardson anywhere_ “ she paused and looked from me to the picture. “Wait a minute. You are Richardson. And he is Richardson.” Her finger pointed from the me to

    JASONI sat in the office with Jane, trying to work on a little problem we were having with two of our plants. For some reason, while Colton had been working as my assistant, he had failed to realize that those particular plants was scheduled for maintenance and would take exactly two days before it could be in use again. And also, he had also omitted that detail when he had been maki g some entries on the particular time we were to make some deliveries.And now, since it was just me, Jane had offered to help me, while Elena was in a meeting. Which I was thankful for, because it was already taking a toll on me. I hated not delivering when I was supposed to.“Do we have any other option? Because at this moment, I think we have run out of every option we have.” I said tiredly.We ventured into a lot of businesses, and while this particular issue wasn’t going to make us actually loose much, but it would affect the other party badly.And I didn’t want that.My father had brought me up in

    ELENAI didn’t know what I was doing.All I knew was, I had to have my husband inside of me. I was honey as fuck, and I wasn’t sure that was the way it was supposed to be after the long conversation we had just had, but I guess that’s the situation I found myself.I had acted out on impulse a few minutes ago, telling him everything that had happened with Colton. I had known him hen that if I hadn’t done it that time, I wasn’t going to ever have the courage to do it again.And I could hear Jane’s voice egging me on as I started to speak. Even when I wanted to stop.I had seen Jason’s face show signs of jealousy and anger, but he had managed to sit through all of it, until I was done.And where I had expected anger, or at least, an indication that he was not happy with me, after I was done talking, I had been super when he had taken my hands in his like he had done, and told me what he did.“Don’t start what you can’t finish, Elena Richardson,” Jason said, clearing his throat.
