"M-my dad, h-he's in Milan," Delilah replied timidly. James frowned and stayed to stare at Delilah.
"He tricked me. Now you have to pay for it!" Delilah was more perplexed. What happened exactly?
"I swear, Mr. J. I gave the money to my father, and he said he would give it back to you." James sighed and understood now. Mark had deceived him and his daughter. He must run away by now.
James loosened his grip on Delilah. He walked closer to Delilah, who was afraid to retreat. James didn't stop until he barred Delilah up with his dominant height.
"Today, I want my money back. I don't care who took your money. I want mine now!" James growled in a low, scary tone. Delilah trembled to scare and sobbed by shaking her head.
"I ... please give me more time, Mr. J. I don't have the money now," Delilah sobbed petitely. She was making James' heart thump faster. He had never felt that way. No tears could make him melt, but now everything is changed.
"I wan
Delilah shook her head frightenedly. James snorted in annoyance at Delilah, who didn't want to come with him."So you'd rather be ravished by that old man than come with me!" gritted James aggravated. Delilah was still sobbing and darting down. James then noticed Delilah's torn dresses, and she tried to hide part of her skin. James then took off his suit and put it on Delilah. Delilah widened her eyes at James' act upon her. James then wanted to carry Delilah, but she refused."I'm fine, Mr. J," Delilah spoke in a soft tone. James examined for a moment, then stood up and told Delilah to stand. Delilah stood up, and James pulled her hand out of the room. Delilah had no choice but to yield when James pulled her out of the house to the car. She is like a timid kitten that is unable to do anything. Delilah only surrenders if, finally, death is her consequence today. James took Delilah to his sports car and opened the door."Get in!" he ordered coldly. Delilah glance
"Hey… come here you!" the orphanage caretaker scolded James, who was playing with his brother, Arjoona. Joona's skinny hand tugged at James' arm, but he held Joona's hand as if to say that everything would be fine. James stood up to the caretaker."Be ready! Someone wants to foster you. Tomorrow morning you leave!" stated the guard and turned away. James frowned, then turned to Joona. Joona was sitting cross-legged behind him. The shabby Arjoona just went silently looked at James. He also heard what the caretaker said.James walked back to Arjoona. This time he sat cross-legged in front of him."Joona, I have to leave," James said in a low voice and sad expression. He is as shabby as Arjoona Harristian, the orphan who shares his name. Arjoona shook his head and started crying."Don't cry, little brother. I'll come back to pick you up from here. I promise!" continued James while swallowing his saliva and feeli
Delilah was sobbing and sitting beside the bedroom door. She was hugging her knees. Delilah still can't believe that her father sold her to James Belgenza. She is currently the slave of a man she doesn't know. Whereas a week ago, her father came to convince her that he wanted to protect Delilah by returning the money. Delilah then remembered the words Oliver had said before he left."Is that why he talked to me like that? Because he knows?" Delilah murmured to herself. Delilah looked down again. While sobbing, she felt the necklace left by her mother that her grandmother gave her before she died."What should I do, Mother? I'm trapped here," Delilah mumbled, taking a breath to calm. She was so scared and couldn't think. Delilah then peeked at her body. She was still wearing the suit that James had given her earlier. The man was mean, but Delilah was comfortable in his clothes. She even pulled the hem of it to cover her body more.Delilah is still crouching in th
Earth Lewis escorted Delilah to the mansion's luxurious dining room. But the funny thing is, instead of taking her to the main dining room, James preferred to serve their dinner at a smaller table. But it was still a frill for Delilah.With an expectant stance, she sat down on the dining chair. Her eyes glimpsed at the food served in front of her. An irresistible steak with mashed potatoes and grilled vegetables is enough to peak her hunger. Delilah's stomach growled eventually, and her saliva soak her mouth. She could imagine how delicious the foods were.Delilah could not remember how long she hadn't eaten protein like meat. She did not have the money to buy enough good food for her skinny body. The money always runs out for daily living expenses, or her father stole it.However, having a delicious dinner did not push her to start eating yet. She was scared and didn't want to touch anything on the table. Instead, she looked around in all directions. Some men w
James's palm smacked Delilah's butt then rubbed it to ease the stingy on her skin. But Delilah didn't stop crying because of it. “Let go of me,” Delilah sobbed but it only got her a few more slaps. "Say apologize!" James growled in a scary tone. Sobbing, Delilah caught her breath. James slapped her more and Delilah squeaked in pain. "Aaahk...!" "I said, say sorry!" he growled more. "I'm sorry, Mr J. Please stop!" Delilah sobbed with stinging pain in her ass. She certainly couldn't sit with red, sore skin on her butt. "Now pledge to obey me!" threatened James and prepared to slap more if Delilah rejected more. “I beg you please stop. It hurts so much!” James let go of his grip and then pulled Delilah to sit on his lap. "Aaah!" Delilah winced in pain as James forced her ass to sit up. “Look what you did. Now all my shirts are wet!” James grumbled expressionlessly with a sharp look in his eyes. Delilah was also so
With his tongue pressed against his mouth's wall and a mischievous smirk, James got his face closer to Delilah. She was widening her blue eyes at him adorably. As if to kiss, James seductively got closer. Delilah spontaneously covered her mouth with a hand. "Why? Your breath stinks, huh!" James sneered back. He chuckled and then let go of Delilah's arms while stroking Delilah's hair. "Finish your meal! After that, wash your face and go to sleep!" said James giving orders as he got up from the couch. Delilah was still glued to her place with one hand covering her mouth and another one holding her fork. She stepped on her conscious mind when James walked into the bedroom and closed the door. While swallowing, Delilah tried to process what she had experienced before. "He is a strange man! Huff, what should I do?" she sighed, letting out a heavy breath. While lightly stroking her still sore butt, Delilah followed James' orders to finish dinner without any
James got out of his luxury car at the international airport. He turned to the man who brought him, Edward Belgenza. "Where are we going?" James asked innocently. Edward smiled slightly and led James to walk into the airport lobby. "We're going to Italy," Edward answered him. James stopped walking and stood frozen. Edward walked before him, then stopped and looked back. "What's wrong, J?" Edward asked. He turned around and faced the 12-year-old boy. "But I live here," James slightly replied, looking at Edward with sad eyes. Edward sighed and nodded. He then crouched down to see James in his eyes. "I've never saved anyone but you. If I didn't buy you, then maybe you're dead-bought and traded like property by now. You understand it, right?" James lowered his head. "I know your home is here. But it doesn't belong to you. Maybe, if you come with me, I can give you a better home," Edward continued, holding James' arm. “Should I
Delilah ran to the bathroom to wash her face in a hurry. She hadn't had time to take a shower because James wasn't someone who liked to wait. After cleaning herself up a bit, Delilah was ushered into James' room. James was standing in front of a wide window by a fireplace. Earth left Delilah with James as she walked into the room with timid steps. Delilah now stopped at the coffee table and continued to twist her fingers as she waited for James to speak. After letting out a single sigh, James turned to face Delilah, who half guts to look at him. "Do you have a way to pay off your debt?" James asked bluntly. Delilah was silent, then nodded. James didn't ask anymore. He raised his eyebrows. "I will be your maid," Delilah responded. She was trying once again. Initially, Delilah's face slowly faded with a slight smile, and she lowered her shoulders even more. James looked at her sharply and coldly. "You still haven't given up, have you? I told you
Delilah had severe contractions within an hour of being taken to the hospital. James had no time to change his pajamas, which didn't match his top. But never mind; James doesn't care about his appearance anymore. He often appears to no longer match his attire. There was one time when he actually wore sandals to the lobby and prepared to get into the car to go to the office. Luckily, none of the employees dared to laugh at him at all.This time, he will officially become a father. Grey, who was also in alert mode, was forced to jump out of bed in the early hours of the morning because Delilah's water broke. Lenora didn't want to come because she was still sleepy, so she let Grey go.Now in the treatment room and waiting for the perfect opening, Delilah hugged James while standing with Grey, who also stood up, stroking Delilah's back."AHHH!" Delilah screamed in pain when the contraction occurred again. James could only continue to hug and calm his wife, but in fa
The trip to Los Angeles takes less than two hours from New York. Initially, they all went to the hospital to visit Aidan. The hospital was full of Aidan Caesar's family. In the end, only a few people were allowed into Malikha's treatment room.James and Bryan chose to wait outside for a while until Arjoona, Jayden, Mars, and Shawn came back in after seeing Aidan's condition."How is she?" James asked a little impatiently."Still under treatment. I think the baby will be born soon; Aidan will be staying with her," answered Joona, and James nodded in understanding."Let's just wait!"Outside, Jayden then asked Erikson and Grey to take all the children of The Seven Wolves, along with their nanny, to the booked hotel. Meanwhile, the parents will wait in the family waiting room. They rented a luxury hotel for all the family members who would stay with Aidan."Uncle Grey, where are we going?" Rei asked Grey, who accompanied him, to escort the chil
James occasionally glanced at Delilah and Shawn, who were just sitting and watching the campfire in front of him."Why isn't this over? It's been almost two years since we killed Kanishka. Why isn't he dead yet?" said Aidan, still adamant. Jayden, who heard the whispers, then approached."Kanishka is dead. But his son is not," Jayden said to Aidan. Aidan let out an annoyed breath. He looked at Shawn, who continued to stare at his wife and then occasionally looked down."Does he know?" Arjoona nodded."He's the first to confirm this," Joona answered, turning to Shawn and then to Jayden."So Kiran has a brother?""Exactly. It's a sibling who hates her so much. Kiran is the unlawful daughter of Kanishka's mistress, while Rohan is Kanishka's son from his legal wife," Jayden added."His name is Rohan." Jayden nodded."He's MIT's best graduate. genius; his IQ is equal to or more than Joona. He's more dangerous than Mars and the creat
"READY... FIRE!" military salute gunshots at Lieutenant Blue Handerson's funeral. Troops under the command of former Admiral Shawn Miller, Blue's superior during his time in the United States Navy, paid their final respects.All members of The Seven Wolves took part in the funeral ceremony and stood with their mates, except Jayden and Aidan.For James, who still had injuries on his busting face, he could only put one arm around Delilah. He and all members of The Seven Wolves have agreed to no longer be involved in any ambushes.The police have destroyed all of The Seven Wolves' recorded activities and secrets. At least for now, they may feel safe.After the funeral, the Seven Wolves threw a brunch for all the mourners. Grey Hunter appears to be sitting alone. His eyes were still looking at James and Delilah, who were sitting with Mars and Vanylla, still chatting with each other.It was seen that James didn't let go of his hug at all to Delilah. Occ
Aidan gave Grey a code to move to chase the group of gangsters who were about to escape through the underground tunnel. He half-ran, panting, then pressed himself against the damp tunnel wall.His eyes then peeked out from behind the wall and saw a large container truck in the middle of the tunnel mouth. He turned around and whispered to Aidan, who was also pressing his back against the tunnel wall."They're going to escape. We've reached the end of the tunnel!" Grey whispered, and Aidan nodded. He turned and ran back to his group. Shawn's bleeding had stopped, but he was still half-supported by Juan leaning against the wall."They're going to run away. There's a container in the way," said Aidan, breathlessly giving a report to Shawn. Shawn nodded in understanding and called the rest of the team over."We will attack. They cannot escape!" said Shawn, giving his order. Soon, Grey came back and joined."It's bad; they're taking hostages. There's a w
All members of The Seven Wolves have changed clothes and put on all their equipment. They will be disguised in all-black SWAT police attire with helmets. Of the 16 people, the Seven Wolves have four main snipers: Aidan, Shawn, Blake, and Erikkson. The three reserve shooters are Mars, Grey, and Bryan. The five sharp weapons and martial arts specialists are Jayden, Han, Glenn, Blue, and Juan. The strategy and tactics specialists are Arya, Caleb, and James, while Arjoona will lead and guide the entire team."Everyone gather; I will divide our team!" Arjoona was ordered to come forward in front of all the members."We will ambush from four different directions, and one of the SWAT members will be there to help each group as a guide. We will all work together. Our main goal is to free the hostages, as the police will divert attention so we can get in.""The first group is Shawn, Jayden, Grey, and Arya; you will enter through the eastern water tunnel near the Bronson,
James' kiss on Delilah's cheek made her slowly open her eyes while sleeping. One of James' hands then reached forward and caressed Delilah's belly bump. Since 23 weeks of pregnancy, Delilah has been sleeping on her side more often.Delilah turned around slowly, and James' sweet smile greeted Delilah's nap."Are you home?" Delilah asked in a soft voice with a smile on her lips. James just smiled, and his other hand stroked Daelilah's hair. He hadn't even taken off his jacket at all."How's my candy today?" James replied in a gentle tone too. His lips then kissed the tip of Delilah's nose, and he smiled again."I get sleepy quickly," replied Delilah, then chuckled slightly and joined in stroking James' arm."You'd better change your clothes first; they'll get wrinkled," Delilah scolded, but James ignored her and got closer. He started kissing Delilah's cheek and neck. Delilah giggled when she found her husband's consistently spoiled behavior.
Grey Hunter had just finished his work and came home a little tired. His and Lenora's relationship has indeed returned to normal, although it is no longer as passionate as before. Lenora seemed to keep her distance from Grey. He didn't want to be hurt again and chose not to pay too much attention to Grey. It seemed like she was afraid of falling too deeply in love with him.After standing for a few seconds with sleepy eyes in front of the elevator, Grey turned to the left and saw Delilah coming out of the elevator with Blaze together. It looked like she was going out of the Ritz with her dog for a walk.Grey's instinct to pay attention to Delilah wasn't working well. He actually followed back and called her name."Miss Delilah!" Delilah suddenly turned and smiled."Hi, Grey!" Delilah waved at Grey, who was walking quickly towards her."Hi, Miss, Where are you going?" Grey asked as he stood in front of Delilah and smiled at her."I just want
The longer Delilah's pregnancy lasts, the more beautiful and sexy she looks. And James increasingly couldn't be distant from his wife. Starting in the second month of Delilah's pregnancy, James took his wife everywhere. Despite the doctor's long-standing advice to avoid traveling long distances by plane or land, James instead brought in a special obstetrician for Delilah so she could calm down. And when they were alone, James never stopped touching Delilah.Although Delilah's pregnancy hormones were significantly higher than they had been the previous month, her personal doctor once again forbade James from engaging in excessive sexual activity."You could hurt her; the semen in your sperm could cause her to miscarry!" said Delilah's personal doctor, warning James for the umpteenth time. James snorted in annoyance and was already half-sulking."Is there no other way?" James grumbled with a sullen face."You can just find another doctor. I really can't sta
