Chapter 14Her feet wobbled against the floor, perturbation sipping through her system with her hand extended and folded in a fist about to place a knock on the golden framed door. Closing her eyes and heaving a deep sigh of relief she placed the knock. Surprised by the sound she made herself from the knock, it was so silent not even the human with enhanced hearing would hear it. She released more breaths of relief, calming herself down and giving wolf assurance to herself, she finally knocked on the door. The sound medium and normal. There was no response while she anticipated badly for a negative one. Her eyes moved about the door about to place another knock when her eyes caught the bell close to the top left of the door.She pressed on the available button, oblivious to the next step and just stood waiting for something to happen. Then the door automatically opened, she looked at the spacey entrance with no one behind it. It was then she understood the door is automatic and c
Chapter 15Missy was beyond stunned by Tyler’s defense of her status in the house. He literally warned Agnes, a mother figure to him that she mustn’t hurt her or try anything that would in any way hurt me, intentional or unintentional. He had asked Agnes to go apologize to her, which she has no option than to comply to. Agnes turned over to Missy. Her expression and all on her face shielded from Tyler’s view as she was backing him. “I’m sorry, my dear kindly forgive me and understand what I was trying to do.” She said, in a soft voice that speaks of her sincerity. But Missy looking at her expression, that speaks of her doom and the trouble she’s in later. She could tell the sincerity is fake. “Good.” Tyler commended. “What room did you her?” He asked, facing Agnes totally for a conversation. “Uhm, one of the guest rooms.” Agnes responded, turning back to face Tyler also. Missy knew she was lying, the other maid that brought her to Tyler’s suite said that was the maid’s quarters.
Chapter 16She doesn’t know what time is it, but she’s certain many hours had gone by. Her bones felt stiff, her system felt worse, it throbbed deeply and all over with the unpleasant bodily sensations, derived from the discomfort induced by a noxious person who tied up her wrist and her leg, giving no free movement and just left her there to suffer in pain without no one to call to and for help. Missy’s eyes were beyond swollen from tears, she had cry, and cry, and like never before. She slept while crying, and it was the striking from hunger that woke her up.He left her the moment he was done tying her up, in the room, unattended to and to be left alone. Missy could only guess the time but she’s sure ten hours have passed, it has been long she sat there restrained in an uncomfortable position. She cried till no tears were left in her eyes, she hated him, she loathed his existence for doing her like this.Today is officially her first day with him and he’s done this to her alread
Chapter 17Missy was skeptical about her expectations about him, it’s hazy and she should just stop thinking he is going to change all of a sudden. He led the way, walking the both of them down the length stairs made with silver plate that glints under the night shunning some sparkles.Missy dragged from behind him, in a languid motion, seeming burned out with her skittish feet stepping from behind down the stairs. The tiled floor got closer the more steps they descend from and soon they were walking on a tiled floor.Tyler brought her to the dining room. He pulled out a chair for her as she sat down before he took his own seat paralleling hers.Covered meals in large bowls were organized neatly already on the long table that had other empty chairs surrounding it back to where Missy and Tyler sat down.Tyler ringed on the little golden bell placed on the table right below the side of his table to signal their arrival. Not too long a maid came to them, bowing her head as she stopped
Chapter 18 Missy breathe with fear, stumbling hard on her expression as she morphed a steady one that match her hurting face from the way she feel from the pull made on her head. Her head was tilted backwards, a look of relief resting on her face as she stared down in silence. The witch behind her pain was still beside her, standing above her with her figure dominating hers. “How dare you tell me off to Tyler?” Her threatening voice asked, making Missy’s face turn to hers. “I did nothing.”It’s more like the reply fueled more anger as she gripped tighter on her head. “I will not tolerate lies or anything. If you don’t want to go bald, then I suggest you answer all the questions I’m throwing to you honestly. Do we understand?” She asked in affirmation to her admonition.“Yes.” Missy confirmed. “So tell me-“ “What do you think is going to be happen if I let him know about all this? About all you’re doing to me, he gave a specific warning that I must not be treated anyhow. But look
Chapter 19 Missy felt like asking about what he meant, but the lingering cold aura around him pushed the nerve back to its depth. Her feet trotted some steps forward, stretching the phone she brought with her to his face. Her finger tapped on the screen, lighting it with his LockScreen wallpaper coming to display. His eyes rolled up to seeing the phone. His jaw twitched, same with his mouth as he hijacked the phone, turning to the side abs bashing the mobile straight into the wall that lead to the shattered piece falling to the ground. He stood up, causing a jerked reaction from Missy as she stepped forward recovering from his sudden action. Tyler walked to where phone was on the ground, then began stomping on it simultaneously chanting, “I hate you! I hate you! I hate you so much!” He yelled stomping on the phone till the flattened piece became more and more damaged. He breathed out after awhile, sliding the phone away from him with his feet. He turned to face Missy who had he
Chapter 20At the moment Missy doesn’t know what to do, she stood there paled out by the question he just asked. Missy turned around, letting her face racked up to his. Her eyes saw the gentleness beneath his face clouded with lust, his oceanic orbs glinting with seduction. Missy stared into his eyes, slowly losing herself to his desire. Her lips parted finding any words for response but they were lost within. She felt his palm moving up and lacing softly on the side of her neck. He brought his face uncannily closer as he slouched a kiss upon the other side of her neck. The kiss igniting a fire within Missy, it erupted more than she can contain and she felt herself melting more and more in his intimacy antics. His slid his arm around her waist, pulling her till Missy’s joint arms stopped her body from meeting his. The hand on her neck trailed over to her shoulder, moving to her back as he found the spot the towel around Missy was tied. A click on it and Missy felt the shed cover
Chapter 21Missy jounced to the back, jerking her hands from him as jumped on her feet, she moved around dashing out of the room immediately while holding on to the upper tip of her towel where she had ended the tying around her. She bounced on her feet as she found her way to the door, then did she realized the door is closed and can only be opened by him. “What are you doing?” The firm cold voice pierced the atmosphere. Missy looked to the back, turning around with her body merging with the door and facing the handsome Devil standing feet away from her with his arms crossed and face rested in blankness. “Open this door right now. I won’t let you sexually abuse me, I won’t let you harass me sexually, you can do whatever you want but harassing me sexually is what I won’t allow.” Missy sort in her words her defiance, looking grounded as she held more tightly to her towel. “Missy get back here before I lose it with you. And trust me that’s the least you want.” He made no move coming
Book 2: Chapter 68 (The Finale Part & Epilogue)Tyler did by his plan, getting Dave, his brother on call with him while technicians from background tracked down his location. Soon information on where he hid was revealed and noted down, one of the team working with Tyler raised his thumb, signaling to Tyler that he was done. “Oh brother, you never had to be this bad. It doesn’t always end well for bad people, I want you to know that.” Tyler rounded up his casual conversation with him. “Yet your man is on the way with the documents, if that doesn’t spell my win, I don’t know what does. Goodbye saint, since you’re ironically the good one.” He replied, hanging up the call not interested in more bantering. “We’ve gotten it.” The same guy who signaled with his thumb, announced audibly again. “Good. Ray, gather some men and storm over. I want him alive.” He instructed calmly. “And you know where to bring him.” He added, looking over at him where he stood with the technicians team to see
Book 2- Chapter 67 (Semi Finale)Missy spent the few early hours of the next morning enjoying her decision to love Tyler, they remained snuggled in bed, talking about random things since they woke up. Not long, their sweet moment was interrupted when Missy got a call from her father. He said nothing than instruct her to rush over, there is an emergency. Tyler had to let her go, wanting to go deal with his own problem once and for all. They’ve already been working on it since he murdered their father.Both dressed up for the day, parting ways to their respective destinations. Ray remained with Tyler, and Dean went with Missy like he did the other day. Soon enough they were back in the Lane’s premises, striding side by side into their mansion. Missy checked the living room, seeing her father was absent, decided to check his office, there she met him in a frenzied mood. “Dad! What’s going on?” She walked up to him, quizzing against her confusion. “You were right.” Davis replied sim
Book 2- Chapter 66Missy and Dean arrived back at the mansion, late into the evening. They parted the moment they entered, Dean taking off to wherever and Missy on her way to Tyler’s suite. Her mind trolled about Tyler’s plan for the night. She wouldn’t lie to herself, she’s enjoying this sweet side of his. She got to his suite, entering only to the roses making a path on the floor of the living room, leading further into the room. A smile pulled up on Missy’s lips, flustered as she followed the roses, going into his room to see a dress box on the bed, and an enveloped notecard sitting pretty above it. ‘For my darling wife’ The enveloped notecard held the scripted title. Missy took the card, filing it open to remove the notecard inside. “For a lady prettier than the stars beautifying the night sky. Become your goddess with the dress.” Missy read the text, absolutely smitten as a wide grin morphed largely on her face. She dropped the card, peeling open the box to reveal a well f
Book 2- Chapter 65Missy was skeptical, torn up by what she heard, deciding not to express a reaction quickly went away from the door, gesturing towards Dean for them to return back to their feet. Her mind kept hurtling around what she heard, keeping a close call and a shady touch. She arrived by her father’s office, meeting him there as expected. He seemed busy with his work, thanks to his injured leg. He’s unable to visit his company and work from his company, now he’s doing it from home, leaving the company under the care of his assistant. “Hey Dad!” Missy greeted, purposely to announce her presence. She walked further inside, leaving the entrance where Dean already took a stance on guard. “Hey! I’m guessing you’re done with your tour. Are you about to leave?” He pushed aside the laptop he was working on, bringing his full attention to focus on Missy. “Not really, I came to discuss some things with you. It’s about my conversation with Theodore. He told me some things, not only
Book 2- Chapter 64“My mother faked her death while I got arrested, and detained in a cell. She then came for me the next morning, I think she’s got some connections with the Chief PO. They released me and I went away with her, while walking over to her car, she made us ran away from someone I have no idea of. I asked her who it was, but she talked around it and didn’t let me know exactly who the man was. Although, she later said it was her husband, husband from years ago, husband I have no idea what she did to him that makes her scared of his return. We got to her private abode where I’m sure none of you knows where, she introduced some guy to me as her housekeeper. Unknown to me, the guy was her son. She lied to me, and the same guy took me out and sent me back to jail; with my mom’s interest. If you still think I’m lying, this is going to be my last truth of convincing you. My mom had this plan with The Connors, they were going to kidnap their son, and I will be made a mask, a facia
Book 2- Chapter 63“Welcome to our home. Missy will go on now and put you to a room, and give you a little tour of the house. I know you must be famished, so let me quickly go make you something to eat. After your tour with Missy, you can go freshen up and Davis, your father would look into his closet and find something casual for you to wear.” Kristen pointed out for everyone except Kory, her mother and Missy’s escort. They had just returned home from the FBI’s station and it’s noon already. The gathering soon dispersed with everyone leaving to tend to their given instructions. Kristen left for the kitchen with her sister, and Missy left with Theodore and Dean trailing behind them. “So, should we try the brother-sister bonding of a thing?” He asked, letting his words break the silence. “No, not interested. Instead, talk to me about how my life is in danger.” She responded, her head nodding sideways to further confirm her words. “Well, if you go to your prom then you’ll die. Simpl
Book 2- Chapter 62His statement brought forth their simmering fascination. “What do you mean Delaney is involved?”“What do you mean your mother is involved?” Missy and her father asked at the same time. “Your mother is dead in case you don’t know.” Davis felt to inform him, thinking his words weren’t based with fruition. A grin lined his face, twinning his palms as he moved to relax on his seat. “Dead? You think my mother is dead?” He raised an amusing look, tainting his words with sarcasm so he would be unable to figure out. Missy and her father looked at each other, “You’re lying, he’s lying. You’re just trying to get out of here.” Missy called out, “Sorry, but we don’t want your information. Dad let’s go before he finds something more to keep us here.” She said, turning to her father as she grabbed him, dragging him up with her to their feet. “Of course I’m trying to get out of here, just not lying. Walk out that door and leave me here, chances are I’ll visit your funeral, Mi
Book 2- Chapter 61They all arrived at the FBI quarters in three different rides, one belonging to Missy and her escort; Dean. One belonging to Davis and his wife, and the last one transporting Kristen’s sister and Missy’s cousin.The clock was vast ticking down to noon, the sun up high with a bright shone through the sky. Walking in, an agent who was expecting their arrival led the way, taking them to the room where Theodore was kept for confrontation. Missy was the first to enter the room, her eyes landing on Theodore’s soft gaze at her. Irritation washed through her, instantly expressing it by averting her eyes. She came in further, letting the rest in have their space for entrance. The agent who came with them also turning around to leave. “You.” Missy lifted an index, pointing it directly at his face while she approached him with slow movements. “I want to talk to you, and you alone.” Theodore asserted, referring to Missy and Davis with his own indexes. Everyone exchanged gl
Book 2- Chapter 60Tyler had his father’s burnt corpse cremated further into ashes, spending his day arranging his funeral. He hadn’t broke the news to his mother yet. He wanted to add the news of Dave’s death alongside the traumatic news whenever he breaks it to her. He already had Ray on the job, working hand in hand with the private assassin he hired to remove his brother if he ever steps his foot into the city. Tyler stood by the grave, watching as they worked on making a tombstone out of the grave. His phone rang, disrupting his focused attention to the men’s work. He brought it out, knowing who was calling him by the anonymous name. He walked away for some privacy, picking the call after. “Was my message delivered or I have to repeat myself?” Tyler’s cold voice goaded the moment he took the call. “Pissed about the death of your old man?” A wry chuckle followed, evident in his tone the distress still bothering him, definitely from the physical assault received from Tyler yes
