“What the fuck took you so long to track down that number?” I hissed as soon as I picked up.“I'm sorry boss. Whoever the person was, was sure to leave no lose ends.”I snorted.“I never knew someone as experienced as you would find something as little as this to difficult to accomplish.”“You never can tell. Anyways I tracked the number, but what I found surprised the hell out of me.”“Then spill it out already and stop gloating.”“I traced it back to Amad.”“You can't be serious.Are you?” I asked again to be sure I heard the damn words correctly.“Seriously Zayn. I'm serious right now.” he sounded pissed off that I didn't believe what he's telling me.But how can I ? How could I possibly believe what I was hearing. Amad was threatening me, trying to make me think I can't protect the woman I love. I felt a surge of anger and protectiveness towards Kacie. How dare Amad try to come between us?“Good work Jack By the way keep an eye on Kacie father,we might soon reveal to her who her bio
The alarm to our room went off blaring loudly into my dream.I groaned and pushed my head deep into the pillow, there's no way I'm going to stand up from the bed.“Hey pumpkin. Are you not going to stand up?” Zayn groaned. “I hate the freaking sound of the alarm.“You shouldn't have kept it then.”“Get your ass up pumpkin, you've got to go see Josh.”At the mention of Jack I sprang up. Traces of sleep wiping from my eyes. I stretched my hands out grabbing my phone.Meet me at Eli's in an hour time, let's talk. ~ KacieI quickly typed and send before keeping my phone down.“Aren't you going to the office today?” I turned to Zayn who was busy ogling at my naked body.“I'm going, but first. Let me make you have a quick orgasm.”“Hell no. Let's go grab a quick breakfast downstairs.”I flung my leg out from the duvet but before I could make it to the bathroom, Zayn was already blocking the way.“Are you sure you don't want to have my cock buried
“Are you sure you are going to be okay in there?”He asked for the twentieth time as we rode to the bank in his car.I rolled my eyes at him.“Come on, don't tell me you're scared.”“You should know I am. Now that you're the almighty Zayn's fiancee, only someone with half a brain won't be scared.”I chuckled and glance out from the window.“I wonder why you're scared. But don't worry, I got this okay.”There was total silence till we pulled up in the bank. “I guess we are here.” I muttered slowly using my eyes to look around the whole building.“Josh turned off the ignition and turned to face me. “I think you should know the straight path that leads to the dickhead office.”I stifled in a laugh. Obviously, Josh and the CEO of (DFB) would never be in the friendly adult zone.“Once we get inside. Just go straight to the third elevator to your left and punch on the fifth floor, it's rarely ever used. Take the second turning to your right and you're right at his office.”I nodded my head sh
As the cab driver drove home my mind was racing with questions. Why was Alessandra here? From the letter I found in the hidden room, I can as well just say 'they were or are in a romantic relationship 'I felt like my world was crashing down around me.As soon as I got home, I rushed straight into nanny Miriam's room. "Kacie dear,where have you been? You didn't have breakfast before leaving.” she was saying but kept quiet when she saw my moody face."Aunt I need to ask you some questions." I said, my voice shaking."What's wrong, did Zayn do something stupid?" She asked, her tone serious that I would have smiled if only I wasn't feeling so hurt.I shook my head. “I'm just coming back from Zayn's office and I saw him hugging another woman. I need to know what's going on."“He was just hugging her sunshine. No strings attached.”I laughed in disagreement.“That wasn't a friendly hug, I know when I see one.”“Then__Who could that be? Did you just say a woman ?” she motioned for me to com
“Care for some coffee sunshine?”I tilted my head towards the entrance of my bedroom where Josh was leaning on the doorframe. He was generous enough to let me use his guest room which I'll forever be grateful for.It's been a week. One whole fucking week since I left Zayn's mansion. No call, no text, nothing at all. Not that I expected him to show up right at my door the minute he learns I'm no longer in the mansion__ but it hurts like hell.“You suck at brewing coffee Josh.” I scrunched my nose remembering the last time Josh made me coffee. I had to wash my mouth four times just to scrape out the bitter taste from my tongue.Josh chuckled and walked into the room, a cup of coffee in hand. "Hey, I resent that. My coffee skills are top-notch."“Agree to disagree. You'll never be excellent at brewing coffee even with the help of an excellent coffee brewer.”“Wait until you taste this one sunshine.” He winked stretching out the cup of steaming coffee to me which I accepted.I accepted th
I'd never been a violent person or someone who likes violence but staring at the annoying lunatic staring at me from the end of the room, I feel nothing more than the urge to jump on him and strangle him to death.He drugged me and then he cuffed my wrist and used whatever that looks like chain on my legs. If i guess correctly, it's been twenty four hours since this mentally deranged son and his father abducted me from my house. My phone has been vibrating in my inner boxer pocket, without anyone telling me I know it's Zayn calling. I just pray he can locate where I am and come to rescue me before this sick head of his cousin does what's on his mind.“Now you look more like someone who's being kidnapped. Don't you agree?"I looked at him where he sat with a glass of God knows what in his hand. I threw my face away as if he didn't say a word which kind of infuriated him.“You answer me when I talk to you bitch.” he hit me hard across my face.“Now, don't you agree you look more like so
“I will sign.” I snapped my head at him. He's kidding right? He's got to be kidding.I shifted my gaze to Kaseem who had an evil grin plastered on his face. How I wish to rip it off his face. With horror I watched him sign over his companies to Kaseem.When he suddenly pop out from underground I was already happy deep down that everything is over and he's going to save me and his son without having to put anything at stake at his expense. I was wrong, so wrong.I sniffed loudly and tried as much as I could not to stare down at the life threatening wire on my body. My eyes were fixed on the two men standing a few steps from me mostly on the son of a bitch and as he walked out of the basement with an air of victory I knew there was no way on God's green earth he wasn't going to blow us off.My eyes took a slow glance at my body. And I didn't notice when I shrieked out Zayn's name.He cupped my cheeks looked at me briefly before fusing his lips on mine.Is this guy being serious right no
Not that I would return there anyways. I can't risk getting kidnapped for the third time.It's Josh's girlfriend birthday today and I'm currently rummaging through my wardrobe which is loaded with dozens of clothes trying to pick out a comfortable outfit to wear to her party.I fell flat on the bed feeling damn exhausted and gosh, I didn't want to go pick up my phone when it vibrated.The number on the screen looks unfamiliar to me and I almost hadn't want to pick it up. What if it's someone trying to hurl threats at me, or what if I picked the call and the person immediately hack into my phone. I waved the thoughts aside as quickly as they came and swipe on the 'receiver icon.'“Hello.” I said rather quietly I almost thought I didn't say it out. “Kacie dear." A surge of relief rush through my entire body when I heard Zayn mother's voice. Why is she calling me with a strange number when she has my number?“Good evening ma'am." I greeted with a smile on my face as if she could see me
“I'm sorry you're going where?” I eyed him over my bowl of popcorn.I was sitting down in the living room whiling away time playing games and eating popcorn all by myself when Zayn burst into the room telling me of his impending travel.“I'm going to Mexico for some important business. It's just going to last a week and some days and I will be back.”I snorted inwardly. If it had been when his hatred for me was still strong, I wouldn't even have noticed his absence.But now that I'm beginning to unravel how I can't do without him, he wants to go away on a work trip.I might break down if I keep on thinking about him going away for some days, how lonely and cold it would feel without him on the bed.How am I going to cope alone?I suddenly felt his strong arms around my fragile body engulfing me into a comforting hug.“Its okay if you don't want me to leave, I can postpone it.” I shook my head vigorously.“Don't even think of doing that, it's just going to be a week and some few days.
Recently her parents had lie low for reasons best known to them.But I wouldn't take chances, I would make sure I keep her safe from harm.Staring down at her smiling face, I could swear she was dreaming. I hope I'm the one she's dreaming of.I don't need to say much by the way, no one could make her smile the way I do.After much pleas, she finally gave in and packed in her stuffs to my room two days after our tour around the mansion.“Will you keep on staring at me all day long ?” she asked beaming at me.“If I could stay all day just staring at you, I would gladly do that.” I bent and gave her a peck on her forehead.“You know, you could still do that if you wish. But doing that will drain you of all your wealth.” “Is that supposed to be a threat pumpkin?” “How can I threaten the almighty Al-Zayn ?” she grinned jumping out of the bed.“I have to take a shower, my body reeks of kisses.”Before she could make it to the bathroom I gripped her by the waist.“Not so fast pumpkin, I sh
The soft rays of sunlight slashing across my eyes could be so annoying.I was having a wonderful dream, but too bad I had to wake up.The faint smell of oud hung around the room. I squint my eyes a little around the room.This isn't my room, my bed isn't as hard as this. I stared drowsily at the bed as the memories of last night started flooding in.I sneaked out of the room in his shirt because my dress was destroyed beyond recognition. Thanks to Zayn.The only prayer in my head was not to get caught by his maids or guards or worse still his nanny.And it was a success. I turned the door knob and pushed it in.My room was how I had left it yesterday but...Something feels off. The room had a mixed scent of rose and lilac.And I definitely don't use lilac. Could it be that...No no no, get a hold of yourself Kacie. She's far away from you, it's just the maids who often comes to clean your room up.Yes it has to be the maids...I rushed into my bathroom and took a quick shower. The chi
I woke up the next morning with a terrible hangover. Partly from the alcohol and the rough night between us.I spread my hands across the bed. To my dismay it was empty and cold.I opened my eyes slowly and truly he isn't on the bed.I ignored the banging hangover razing the whole of my head and head out of the room. The hallway looks empty.Where could he have gone to so early?I stroll down not knowing exactly where I'm headed to. I continued walking anyway.“I can see you're awake.”I turned around to see him standing a few feet away from me dressed in a well tailored suit. Even his haircut looks different, I guess he's in a conference meeting with his staffs.I closed the remaining distance between us.“Yes. I searched but didn't see you around so I decided to come check on you.“Sorry I didn't keep a note for you, just trying to fix a little problem.”I furrowed my brows. “Problem? Is it serious?”“Don't worry pumpkin.” he kissed me slightly on the cheeks. “I got it, in less th
It's been a week since we officially started dating. Somehow it feels strange because I hadn't expected him to quickly renege on his word, but all the same I'm glad things turn out this way.Seeing how he changed from being a hardened stone hearted beast to a loving angel. I might say I'm one a lucky girl tho it's still hard to believe.Despite all his pleas and constant nagging, I refuse to pack into his room. Partly because of continuous nightmare and also because I want to mentally prepare myself.Apart from myself I've never slept overnight on the same bed with someone, even when I was still living with Josh.“Common Kacie, could you please lend me a helping hand here.” I glanced up from my phone to see nanny Miriam struggling to arrange the dining room.“Sure. Just a minute.” I said standing up from where I sat checking out Zayn's pictures.Pictures that I had taken secretly without his consent.Weird right?I missed his face so much I decided to do the only thing I could do to
I walked gently down the stairs trying as much as I could to stifle in a smile. But it didn't work though, as a bright smile cover the whole of my face.I could tell from the way he shivered when I came out dressed in that gown that he was beginning to like me.Try as he might behave rudely to me always, he can't change the truth.Truth that could be very dangerous to you."Ahh. Get a hold of yourself Kacie."His warning that night was scaring, particularly his face."You must never fall in love with me, Kacie. The day you do, would be your end.” his warning kept ringing in my head and clearly it wasn't something ordinary that I could toy with.I continued walking slowly when the pain came again same way it did when I was at the pool. Except this one grip was tight caging me into the vast ocean of pain.I held on very tight to my stomach, my vision was already hazy at this point"Please... " I almost shouted when I felt an excruciating pain tear from my abdomen to my chest.I bent lo
"Are you coming with me?." I asked him immediately we step into the elevator."Nah. I will pass, the torture they received from me is enough.""I might end up blowing their brains out if I should set my eyes on them. He said with a hint of anger in his voice.I stared at him unbelievably. It's so unlike Amad to miss something like this.One reason why I always entrust my prisoners to Amad, he tortures them to a near death state."Speaking of which. Did you notice anything suspicious?." "No. But there's a possibility he would strike when he sees you let your guard down." He answered twisting the button on his shirt."I ain't daft, I know what sort of human he is.""Tighten the security around the storehouse and this very mansion itself, and also keep a keen eye on my fiancee."I paused suddenly already regretting my decision to leave her all alone in the room.She was fast asleep when I got a call from Amad saying the prisoners were causing a nuisance.Come off it Zayn. You don't like
"What are you doing here." His thick cold voice boomed behind me jolting me out from my reverie.I slowly turned to face him. I hadn't expected him back so soon, when I woke up from my long sleep he wasn't in the bed.My palms felt sweaty and cold against each other. I'm sure he's pissed off seeing me in his gallery.Before I could compose a very convincing excuse, he had kept the laptop in his hands on the bed and raised me up like I was a compressed air.He carried me away straight to my room and put me on the bed."Where did you go to ? You weren't on the bed with me when I woke up." I asked him slowly.He let go of me and stood up from the bed turning his back on me.I stared at him speechlessly.What is he trying to do ? Didn't he get my question.I was already trying to throw the same question at him but stopped when he began saying something."I went to take care of an urgent matter. And also forget about what happened yesterday.""Don't start nursing the thought that somethin
I spoke icily into the mouthpiece.I hung up after passing out my orders. I have been after this particular contract for seven months to be precise.Since I got wind of my uncle's intentions behind the shadows I decided to strike a deal with with Big life media conglomerate. BLM for short, which I will officially become their CEO in the next forty minutes.That's who I am. I have the power to get any work done at the comfort zone of my home.Normally, it wasn't supposed to take as much as seven months. But my bastard of an uncle was a step ahead of me almost giving me a hard time but thanks to my spies I was three step ahead of him.To get something, you have to stake something. Nothing goes for nothing.With an air of victory I walked back to the dining room but didn't expect to see what I saw.What gave her the nerves to leave the dining while I'm not done eating yet ?."Hey you." I beckoned on the maid clearing the table.Where's my fiancee?." "I don't really know sir, but I thin
