Gavriel's POV 

There had to be nothing more painful in life than hearing your son say he would never forgive you.   

I watched Nolan walk away, stomping on the shards of glass, wood, and plastic he had created all through the hallway.   

There was a madness in his gait. A madness I was afraid of. I had been afraid of the minute he was returned to me after Victoria kidnapped him years ago.  

"Nolan," I called out but hell, it sounded feeble to my ears, too. What could I possibly say that would make him calm down? 

I dragged a hand down my face. There was a constant headache threatening to split my head in two. I could have done better. I could have handled it better! What the hell was wrong with me, dammit! 

No, I clenched my jaw, staring at the shards all over the floor. I tried. I fucking tried. I had to protect Camille. The wo

    Camille's POVI slipped on my dress, a bit grumpy, a bit scared, and a thousand other emotions pulsing through me. That was a roller coaster. I couldn't help but replay Nolan finding out about us in my head over and over again. What on earth would happen now?Was I even ready for the public to find out about us?I sighed, staring at the mirror before me. Tonight was supposed to be perfect. Wonderful.I had wasted all that energy and time trying to look good only to have everything flashed to the ground by a guy who couldn't accept no for an answer. Perhaps I should have told Gavriel about it all from the very beginning. Maybe things wouldn't have escalated the way they did.Or maybe they would have turned out worse.There was no way I could find out. It was too late to worry about all that now, I just had t

    Gavriel's POV"Are you ready sir?" My PRO glanced at me, nervous as hell. He was a young man, probably a few years older than Nolan. Young as he was, he was tenacious. He handled my publicity like a pro.I sat in my office, back against the landscape of the city behind me. The police were just outside, ready to walk in and ask me a bunch of questions. About Alan Johnson's death.He was dead. I had found that out last night and it still felt surreal. I drove down to the police station after I dropped Camille off and they'd wheeled his dead body out for me to see and confirm before carrying him off to the morgue.They say he was poisoned.Poisoned."Sir?"I glanced around the office. It was supposed to be a quiet interrogation and we didn't want the public getting a kic

    Camille's POV"Dad?"I paused on the stairs staring at my father. He was supposed to be back at his company's headquarters in California. At least that was where he told me he was going last night.Now he had a tee shirt on and looked like he was lounging in the living room, sitting before his laptop."Hey honey," He greeted, tossing me a smile. "Sleep well?"I did sleep well. What I did not understand was why he was still home. I had told Gavriel and we had plans to spend the night at his place instead. Now those plans were ruined. "What about the trip to headquarters?"I tried to play it as subtly as I could. My father had been... What was the word for it? Extra attentive? Yeah, he had been extra attentive. Especially after that call with Nolan.

    Camille's POV"Neither can I," I whispered, watching him knead the soft mounds through my shirt. His breathing grew slow and labored, stroking my face."You didn't wear a bra," he murmured, staring in awe as he squeezed and toyed with my breasts.My nipples pushed through the shirt, begging for his attention.Gav flicked them with his fingers and I sucked in a breath from how good that felt. He repeated the action, flicking my nipples until they grew even more turgid and stiff.My pussy ached. I wanted to be flicked down there too. Oh, the sweet mix of pain and pleasure.Yes, please.He wrapped two fingers around both nipples and pinched down on it. The pain shot through my nerves like a dopamine hit and I squealed, writhing as he held on tight.

  • Craving my Dad's Billionaire BestFriend   Sweet Gavriel

    Camille's POVI managed to yank down my skirt and get off the desk while Gavriel helped button my shirt and straighten whatever looked off about me.We couldn't do anything about my greedy nipples poking through the shirt, so I turned my back to the elevator.When the elevator pinged open, I grabbed a document as if I were reading what was on it while Gavriel stared in amusement.Of course, he was amused. We almost got caught, and he thought, "What I was doing was funny?”"Sir?"It was the head of the marketing team. I glared at the older man over my shoulder, annoyed that he had interrupted something I had been aching for since I woke up."We're expecting your arrival,"Of course, they were. We couldn't even get five minutes of peace, could we?

"Have a little faith in me will you? I kept your little secret about you and Gavriel."I squinted. "How did you respond?"Gavriel watched me speak, his expression shifting from confusion to worry. To assure him I was fine, for now, I ran my hands over his chest gently."What?" Megan sounded appalled."What did you tell him? I want the exact words.""Camille, I didn't tell him anything," She replied. "I just told him you were fine.""That's all?"She sighed. "Would I l

    Camille's POVA picture of us?!"Gav?" I called, unsure whether I ought to panic or he was simply pulling my legs.He left the door instantly and approached me, shedding off his shirt quickly to cover me. I watched him march to the door, a deadly look on his face. Fuck was it true? Had someone taken a picture of us having sex?That was bad. I tried to stop the trembling of my hands but it shook anyway. A picture of us leaking out into public like that would be devastating. Everyone would see Gav fucking me.No.I ride off the couch, rushing into the closet. What if Dad saw it? He would have a heart attack.Or what if the person didn't share it with the public and instead decides to use it to blackmail either of us? Just like Jordan did.Oh my God,

First, it was the word questions, then him going off to interrogate Megan and now it seemed it was my turn to get interrogated.Dad glanced around me, from the exercise mat to the bottle of water the maids had gotten for me to my tablet playing the exercise video."Where's your phone?""It's in my room," I shrugged.His face relaxed then. "I had called you several times. I was worried when you didn't pick up. I didn't know you were home yet.""Maybe check first, next time? Instead of assuming I'm not home? Dad, what is going on?""Nothing, I'm just worried about you.""Why are you worried about me? I'm fine, I told you that

And that was such a profound statement because exciting things happened in New York all the time.However, there was nothing as exciting as seeing America's finest billionaire bachelor getting hitched. Gavriel Donovan had made waves in the fashion industry and even bigger waves in the media. From the scandal involving his ex-wife to his best friend's death, his exposed relationship with said best friend's daughter, and the kidnap incident he suffered some two months ago.For almost two years, the media never seemed to run out of things to discuss about Gavriel Donovan. And on that very day, before God, men and backbiters alike, Gavriel Donovan would be getting married to the love of his life.Camille Caldwell."This is bigger th

    Camille's POV"Wake up, sleepy head,"I woke to murmuring in my ear, a lazy smile on my face."Good morning, baby girl," Came the deep guttural voice that teased my eyes. Hot kisses, trailed down my face, to my jaw, and then down my neck.I moaned lightly when he slid down the bed to brush his mouth against my exposed breasts."Good morning, Gavriel,"My eyes opened to see him staring up at me, his eyes bright and mischievous. The past few days had been bliss. Pure bliss."Well, look who is finally awake," He teased, holding my gaze while his tongue gave a slow hot lick over my nipples.I could feel a blush creeping up my cheeks at the double entendre. We had barely gotten any sleep the night before. I didn't shy away from his gaze. Instea

    Camille's POVI counted every second until Gavriel walked out of the asylum and slipped into the backseat with me. His eyes were rimmed red and fear gripped me.Had something happened with Nolan?Did he get into a fight and was killed?Crap, all I could think about were gory things. There had been so much death and blood in the past two weeks that I couldn't summon a simple positive thought.At first, I wasn't sure what to ask. And what to NOT ask. What did one say to a man who visited his son in a mental hospital? I wasn't sure. And frankly, I was horrid at this sort of thing.I stuck with calling his name and taking his hand in mine. He gave a wane smile, squeezed my hand, and returned his gaze to the window while Dane pulled out of the driveway.The d

    Gavriel's POV"Okay," She whispered. "That's good. You should have seen him. He was very... distraught when he saw you dying."He was?That was relieving.After a hearty lunch with her, Chad and Megan went off to who knows where. Camille climbed into bed with me, her head on my chest, while her hands stroked my chest gently."You're thinking too deeply," I murmured when she sighed. "What is it?"Her blue eyes looked up at me, flickering with concern. "Do I have to go with you to see him?"Nolan. I smiled at her and pressed my lips to her forehead. "It's fine. You don't have to come with me.""Thank you,""Oh come on," I murmured. "I wasn't going to make you come with me either way.""Re

    Gavriel's POV"Oof!" I grunted when Camille threw herself at me, wrapping her arms around my neck and sobbing into my chest.Her tears made me feel like an asshole. I heard her. All while I was stuck in the damned coma, I heard her talk to me. Her voice was mostly muted and I could barely hear the words properly. But I heard enough snippets that made me ache desperately to see her again."Miss, give us a minute and you can hog him to yourself later," The doctor examining me said with a chuckle, trying to pry Camille off.She refused to let go and I grinned. I feared I would never see her again. That somehow I would lose her. With my free hand, I brushed her hair, murmuring in her ears."I'm sorry darling. I should have woken sooner,""No, no," She sniffed, looking up at me with red-rimm

    Camille's POV"Miss Caldwell, what would you say about the current health situation of Mr Donovan?"Oh great, the press was here. I hadn't noticed them gathering in clusters until I was out of the car. I had gone out to get something to eat. It was noon and I hadn't eaten since noon the previous day. I hadn't wanted to leave Gavriel's side. It wasn't until my eyes felt dizzy and I was certain I would pass out that I had tried to find a diner.Two burgers later and a diet coke in the parcel bag clutched tightly between my fingers, I was standing before some twenty reporters waving their microphones and cameras at me.I had almost forgotten they existed. "What are your remarks on the scandal?""Did you know Gavriel Donovan had a twin brother?"My eyes widened on the

    Third POVVictoria Harrington was done.Done with holding back. Done with keeping up with the mess in her head. She was a dripping mess. It had taken a few trial and error to escape the policemen. They could be incredibly dumb when it came to handling a woman who wanted to pee.Sure she ended up shooting a policeman in the leg and got slammed against the van that was supposed to transport her, but it was just a mere sacrifice she had to make.Right before her was the bane of her existence. Two of them. Gavriel, her ex-husband, and his young stupid lover. Anger surged through Victoria and she gripped the gun tighter, pointing it right at Camille."Victoria," Gavriel's deep voice filled the quiet wardroom. "Put down the gun,"If Nolan hadn't come to pick her up while she escaped the police van, she probably

    Camille's POV"Are you sure you will be fine on your own?"The woman who helped me the night before was Faye. She had heard my screams while she was in her home and had looked out the window to see what was going on. She hadn't wasted time rushing out of the house and driving down the road like she was some passerby.I would always be grateful to her. She didn't just drop me off at the police station and be on her merry way. She dropped a witness statement that I had been kidnapped and a team of police was sent to retrieve Nolan while I gave my report and the recordings of what had happened with Gavriel.We stayed overnight at the station. The team sent after Nolan returned empty-handed stating that the building had been abandoned. Of course, he ran away. Faye had stayed with me today until the evening. She had been a darling. 

  • Craving my Dad's Billionaire BestFriend   His past

    Gavriel's POVThe first time I felt hunger in the true sense of it, was when I was sixteen. It had been two days after my birthday and I had escaped one of the foster homes the government had tossed me in. I spent the night in an alley. Found a spot behind a pillar to rest and woke the next morning to some barman chasing me away with a stick.That morning, my stomach felt empty. It growled and grumbled but I couldn't get anything to eat. Not in the trash cans and certainly not from the kindness of strangers. By noon, my mouth was dry, my insides were hot. The next day, my arms and legs were useless, my tongue was stuck to the roof of my tongue. I had a maddening headache and everything started to look tasty.That was hunger. Sixteen-year-old me would not have survived if Old Robert hadn't found me.
