Crimson Chronicles: Apollo & His Queen Chapter 18: Fright
Apollo I was getting angrier by the second. Is this really what Livia had to go through? A father that resented her for something she had no control over. To beat and ridicule an innocent child to relieve his painful mourning is inhumane. I quickly caught Livia as she stumbled backward. "Livia, are you okay?" she looked dazed. Suddenly she took on a pale look as if she'd been painted with whitewash. She swayed for just a moment before fainting in my arms. "Oh my god, Livia!" I yelled out, getting the other's attention. Cassian was the first to run up to her. "What happened?" "I don't know. Livia was fine a few seconds ago, and she suddenly fainted." Chris checked her pulse. "Her pulse is irregular, but it is strong. We need to attend to her wound before it gets worse." "Alright, let's move out." I picked her up, carrying her out of the house. The paleness of her skin and the blue tint making its way to her lips were worrying. Adrian ran up to me. "Boss, what do you want us to
Crimson Chronicles: Apollo & His Queen Chapter 19: Be Mines
Livia Chris was so done. "ADRIAN!" "YES?" he yelled from downstairs. "I NEED YOUR HELP. COME TO APOLLO'S ROOM." "OKAY." Adrian came running up the stairs. "What do you need help-" he gasped, seeing Cassian passed out on the floor. "What the hell happened to him?" "Don't ask. Just help me take Cassian to his room." Adrian threw his head back in defeat. "Fine," before hoisting Cassian over his shoulders. "Livia, don't forget what I said," Chris warned. "Aye, aye, captain." He stared at me. "Apollo, make sure the Queen doesn't overdo it." "Was already planning on it. There is no way I'm letting her out of my sight under her current condition. "Chris, he is slipping," Adrian whined. He shook his head. "Why are you still standing here? Useless." "Hey." I let out a hearty laugh as Adrian hauled Cassian to his room. "I really like your laugh," Apollo said, eyeing me adoringly. He really knows how to get my blood flowing. "Since I'm bedridden, there is something I have always b
Crimson Chronicles: Apollo & His Queen Chapter 20: Bombarded
Livia Beep Beep Beep I blindly reached for my phone on the side table and glanced at the time. "It's 3 O'clock in the morning. Who in the hell is messaging me this early in the damn morning on a freaking Sunday at that?" I unlocked my phone and saw several missed calls and unread messages. "Shit, I am as good as dead," I whispered, quickly opening the chat. Apollo confiscated my phone after catching me working on a project when I was supposed to be resting. Me: Hey guys, what's up? Blake: Aye, don't come in here talking all casually. Why have you forsaken us? Percy: We've been trying to reach you. Is everything okay, Liv Liv? Sandra: Speak for yourself cause we had a girl's day last Saturday. Percy: And you didn't think to invite me? Sandra: Xx NO BOYS ALLOWED xX Alaric: Oh, look who decided to respond after worrying everyone. Why haven't you answered our calls or texts, shorty? Me: Woah, Casanova, it almost sounds like you miss me? Alaric: In your worst night
Crimson Chronicles: Apollo & His Queen Chapter 21: Morning Bird's
NarrationIt was now 5:30 in the morning, and it didn't look like Apollo was waking up anytime soon. "I might as well work out. It's been a few days since I last visited my private gym." Livia quietly walked out of the room after changing into some gym clothes, and to her surprise, she wasn't the only one on a mission."Guess I am not the only early bird. Heading somewhere, Adrian?"He froze, turning to see Livia walking towards him. "Yeah, I was heading to the gym for an early morning workout."She nodded my head. "I was heading out to my private gym near here. Want to tag along?""Sure. If it's good, I may become a member.Livia rolled her eyes. "I'm already starting to regret my offer."It was a comfortable, silent drive until, "Livia, how did you do it? " Adrian suddenly asked.Frowning. "Tell me what I did, and maybe I can give you an answer.""How did you get an Aromantic person like Apollo to date you? The Apollo I grew to know never showed any interest in romance. He has alway
Crimson Chronicles: Apollo & His Queen Chapter 22: Adrian's Revere
AdrianI jumped around the ring, getting my muscles loosened. Livia and I stared down, reading each other's movements and contemplating the next move. "Don't tell me you are already chickening out on me?" she provoked.Damn, how I wished I didn't fall for the bait. I charged at Livia, only to be taken down by her kicking me in the chest. The wind got knocked out of me on impact. I didn't have time to recover before receiving a sidekick to the face, making me land on my ass. "Ouch," I mumbled, staggering to my feet."Take your time. I have all day sweet cheeks." she teased.Annoying, she devil. I smacked my boxing gloves together, ignoring the stars flying around me. I charged at her again, not giving her enough time to calculate my movements. I tapped her shoulder, knocking her off balance, and followed it with a right downward punch making her fall. Still, she quickly rebounded with an amusing fire in her eyes.We kept exchanging blows until she finally knocked me down again."Anot

LiviaLater in the morning, the aroma of the fresh food sprawled on the table invaded the air. The boys started to trail in one by one."Good morning, Livia! Do you need help with anything?" Chris offered."Good morning, Chris. Can you finish setting the table for me? That would be a great help, thanks.""Okay, leave it to me. I will set the table like you have never seen before." He joked.Adrian wrapped his arms around my stomach and peeked over my shoulder. "It smells delicious.""Thanks."Apollo walked into the kitchen shortly after and paused at the view before him. "What the hell is this? Since when did you two become so close?"Adrian looked at him. "Since this morning while you all were busy sleeping. Why do you ask? Jealous?"Apollo pulled him away from me and took his place. "Yes, she mines. Find your own girl."I just chuckled and patted his arm. "Good morning to you too, handsome. Here try this." leaning back, I put a strawberry lightly coated in cinnamon into his mouth.H
Crimson Chronicles: Apollo & His Queen Chapter 24: Sweet Dreams
Apollo Everything was a blur. The beautiful woman before me is the only thing that matters as I lead her to the dance floor. We laughed, enjoying each other's company. It was perfect. At this moment, nothing else mattered. The buzz of the restaurant fades into the background. The dance floor becomes the stage of our sweetest love and romance. This is where the journey between our hearts and souls collides into one. Soon our faces started to draw closer together... "Apollo?" "Yes, my love?" As our lips were finally about to meet, "Apollo..." "Apollo..." "Apollo…" My eyes fluttered open and shut as a lovely voice sang my name like a lullaby. It was just a dream, what a pity. "Apollo, I know you are awake. It's time to get dressed." She said, slightly shaking my body. My heart jumped excitedly at the touch of her soft lips grazing my cheek. She is too cute to handle. I pulled her closer and looked into her eyes. "I could get used to being woken up like that." "Mmm, I'm s
Crimson Chronicles: Apollo & His Queen Chapter 25: Bad News
ApolloAdrian and Cassian immediately shut their eyes and turned away. Poet and Parker whistled, Chris stood disinterested, and Jack was his usual observant self. "WHAT THE HELL? DON'T YOU GUYS KNOW HOW TO KNOCK?" I yelled, quickly covering Livia from their wondering eyes. Cassian looked at us, horrified. "Were you two just? I think I'm going to faint." Chris caught him. "Oh no, not again, Casanova. Parker, take him downstairs. Adrian ran back and forth frantically. "Oh my god, I think I'm going to be sick. Bleach my eyes. Erase the memory. Kill me now." Livia sighed. "Adrian, can you please stop being so dramatic." "Nice body, Liv." Poet complimented. "Thanks, Po." She responded. I glared at her before looking back at Poet. "Can you keep your eyes off my woman, please," I said through gritted teeth. He shrugged his shoulders. "Sorry, you know I am a sucker for stating facts." "I don't care. Keep your eyes off my woman and your compliments to yourself, especially

LiviaI laughed as Apollo kept kissing all over my body. "We've been in bed all day. At some point, we must get up.""That's not true. We've been in the shower, closet, and on the dresser." Apollo chuckled. "Then, in the shower again. I would have taken you to the balcony if it weren't for the guards. We've been pretty productive if you ask me."I fell back in a fit of laughter. "You are ridiculous, and my girl is swollen because of you.""You loved every minute of it. Devour me... Deeper... Fuck, Apollo, you feel so good... Right there, right there, right there, right there." he mocked.I covered his mouth. "Okay, I get it. You fucked me into oblivion."Suddenly his aura changed. There was something darker, tantalizing, seductive, yet possessive in his eyes. "No, I didn't. I didn't want pain to be associated with our first-time together. Although there were a few times I nearly lost control." He said matter of f
Crimson Chronicles: Apollo & His Queen Chapter 55: First Time
LiviaThe morning breeze roused me out of my slumber as its coolness grazed my exposed skin. I nestled into the warmth of Apollo's arms as I watched the curtains dance to the rhythm of nature. His masculine aroma mixed deliciously with the garden's floral fragrance a few feet from our balcony.I rubbed the remainder of my sleep from my eyes and gazed at the ethereal man sleeping soundly beside me. I find it strange, hard even, to find something so meaningful in someone so special. He is like the Sun, every day, it rises and sets, but it is always there. Reliable since the beginning of time.I straddled his stomach. "Wake up, Apollo. It's time to start the day. We have a long day ahead of us, so I need my Mafia King up and ready to start the day with his Queen.""What your Mafia King needs right now is cuddling from his lovely Queen," he buried his face into my breast.I laughed. "That tickles, Daddy."
Crimson Chronicles: Apollo & His Queen Chapter 54: Him
Livia "The next move?" I pondered. Devising plans is my guilty pleasure, but executing them successfully is dearer. "The White Vultures is all about gaining ultimate power, right? Frankly, I don't think that is entirely their motive. That attack the other night was thought-out yet sporadic. I believe Vanessa has no desire to pursue Apollo or become the Mafia Queen. I am at a loss for what they truly want. Which bothers me." Understanding the enemies' motives is the legend of maneuvering them the way we want. Then I thought about something that could be valuable. "Who was the former leader of White Vultures?" "Vanessa's grandfather, Oscar Myers." "Myers? Oscar Myers? Do you have a picture of him?" "I might. Give me a second." Poet vigorously scanned through files on his laptop. "Oscar is a very privy man, unlike Vanessa, who boldly states she's a Mafia P
Crimson Chronicles: Apollo & His Queen Chapter 53: Livia Remember's
LiviaGunshots rang in the air. Dead bodies and blood were everywhere. A little girl sat in a corner, rocking back and forth with hands over her ears. The people with no faces are there again, protecting the little girl. "Run" was the last thing she heard before everything went black. This dream again. "Is it a nightmare? Is it a memory? Who was that girl?" I finally have the answers to those questions. It's not just a dream. This is a memory of my nightmares. The memories I longed for came to me like a flood."Livia! LIVIA! Are you okay?" When I opened my eyes, Cassian was standing over me. "Oh my god Livia you scared the shit out of us."Tears flowed from my eyes, remembering how my once happy, loving life was replaced with hatred and pain. "Sunny?" I fell into his embrace, overwhelmed, shaking, remembering everything. I was finally ready to face reality. That explains why my heart always felt content when I was around Cassian. Her body finally revealed the truth about that inciden
Crimson Chronicles: Apollo & His Queen Chapter 52: The Truth
The In Between "I still don't understand, Alaric. How is any of this relevant?" "Use your head, Livia. Have you ever heard the saying, he who seeks revenge digs two graves? Do you know why that is?" "A grave for your enemy and another for yourself because you're dooming yourself with whoever you seek revenge against. "Exactly, my girl. Revenge is close acquaintance with misery, and we know how much that bitch loves company." There was still something that bothered Livia. "After declaring war on Vanessa, what happened to us, Alaric?" "That's something you will have to remember yourself." ∞∞∞ [Earlier that morning…] Governor Lacy and the board of directors were overwhelmed by the gallery of people gathered in front of the courthouse. "Governor Lacy, what will

Parker Miles of trees covered the land. The reflective greens of the landscape glowed as the sunlight danced between the trees. Standing at the entrance of the highlands, a feeling of peace as the wind sings a lullaby of serenity. "I've lived here practically my whole life and never knew about this," I was about to leave the cave when Asa stopped me. He pointed to a trip wire right in front of my feet and the censored alarms ten feet away. "Damn, that would have been bad. Thanks for having my back." I spoke gratefully. "No biggie, we are all here for the same goal. Percy, go ahead of us and disarm the alarms. Alaric set up some C-4 explosives throughout the cave. Jonah, you should stay with him for backup and ensure the others arrive without hassle. Everyone else, come with me and stay alert." Asa commanded. Watching him, I was glad Asa was on his side. Percy finished disarming the alarms in the entranceway of the cave. "Everything is clear." We began to walk forward cautiously. "
Crimson Chronicles: Apollo & His Queen Chapter 50: Found You
Narration Vanessa was in turmoil, nothing ever came easy for her, and now she had to deal with this. "What's wrong? Did things not go according to plan?" Livia taunted. "Shut up. Layla, take my phone. I want to send a message to King." "Gosh, you reek of desperation." Vanessa punched Livia's jaw. Blood instantly pooled in her mouth. "I said shut up." "Things are finally getting exciting." Livia laughed, licking the blood from her lip. Layla looked at her, concerned. "I don't think that's-" Vanessa cut her off. "I didn't ask you to think. Take the dame video!" she yelled. Layla rolled her eyes. "Whatever?" Vanessa then reverted her attention to Livia. "You think I'm the pathetic one? I'm not the one tied to a chair." "On purpose, may I add? And you are also not the one who has King's heart. It must suck being nothing more than a little puppet." "The ca

Apollo"I have eyes on Myers. There seems to be no suspicious activity, but I advise you to keep your guard up." Austin informed through the earpiece.Adrian had instructed all his high-ranking soldiers to surround the building just in case something was to pop off. You can never be too safe, especially with a man like Oscar Myers."Keep your eyes peeled. We are heading in. Standby." I cut the line. "Stay alert, Ace, and don't let him get to you."Ace side-eyed me. "I can say the same for you.""Mr. Myers, your guest has arrived." the receptionist announced before quietly leaving the office."So rumor has it your little girlfriend went missing. It's been two days. One can only assume the worst. Perhaps she wouldn't have gotten in such a predicament if she were a Mafia Princess."Only a few people know the severity of Livia's whereabouts. It seems Oscar has crawled his way into my territory. Okay,
