WEST'S POV "Sam, what is wrong with you?" I raise her up slightly, checking her body; she is still breathing, and she has not sustained any injuries.Luca leans into me. "I will call the estate's doctor." "I'm really sorry for the stress that I and Samantha have caused you in the past few days." I apologize to Lily and lift Samantha up to the bed. "Oh please don't be silly. She is my sister, and you are family. I will never count helping you as stress."Luca rejoins us. "The doctor is here." He steps aside for the doctor to enter the room, an elderly man of puny structure with gray hair and freckled skin; he adjusts his wired frame glasses. The doctor moves to the bed where Samantha is resting. He drops his box on the cupboard and checks her temperature. "What happened to her?""She screamed and fainted afterwards." Luca answers."Good day, doctor." I stand up from the bed to give the doctor enough space to conduct his multiple tests. "Hey, West." Luca signals me with his fingers
SAMANTHA'S POVI stir and straighten from the bed, which is empty on the floor. I know around the room. Where is West? I know I had refused him last night, and that refusal made him so mad. And West staying mad at me has been eating me up. I really care about this man, so why do I keep doing it wrong and saying so many stupid things to keep her at bay?I hurriedly do my regular morning routine, bathe, brush, get dressed, and rush down for breakfast. I bump into Lily on my way down. "Hi sister." Last night's episode helped me remember my lost memory."Hi Isabella. Oh, I'm sorry. It's okay if you still want to go with the name Sam."I rush towards her and hug her; it feels good. "Both names will go." I free her from the suffocating hug, and we walk, fingers interwined, to the dining room. "Where is West?" I ask the question that has been on the tip of my tongue since I woke.She looks shocked when she tells me. "West has gone with my husband to continue the estate project.""Oh." I try
SAMANTHA'S POV"Let's call it a day and go home and fuck.""No, let's wait till the close of work; you are probably feeling sorry now and somewhat indebted. If you are still horny and willing, I will be more than happy to do the fucking.I toy with the strands of his hair and lean into him to whisper. "I think I may have to meet a stranger for a random fuck. I can't keep my honey in still then."His fingers dig painfully into my ass cheeks, causing me to yelp; the workers have returned to their various works, paying us no attention. "I will kill him, then tie you against the wall, spank your ass, and fuck you darkly.""Damn! Now, I want you to do all that to me. After you close from here, meet me in your suite; I have a surprise just for the two of us, with very kinky things planned out. I'm already late; let's start running to work." I kiss him goodbye again before I run out. "Where is Luca?""He is behind with some of the workers digging a drain.""Send my regards to him." I walk a
WEST'S POV"Toilet." I say between gritted teeth, trying the best I can not to have eye contact with any of the directors. I struggle to drag my suit down to cover the growing erection between my thighs; that is why it is so messy. I pick up my phone, leaving my bag and files on the table so that it won't look suspicious, although I'm going to my suite, and I don't have any plans of returning to this 'very' interesting meeting. SAMANTHA'S POVFor a complete outfit, I add chain-like jewelry around my waist and a corset belt that snatches my waist. I attach a tail to the jewelry around my waist so that it falls at my ass. Stacy and Alice had given me a brief overview of BDSM, and I loved it, and from everything I told them about West, they said he did love it too. I pour honey and milk all over my face and body, smearing it on my breasts, ass, and pubic region. I take out my phone and snap a picture of my breasts as my hands raise them so high to my face. I preview the picture and swi
WEST'S POV Samantha's breathing is unstable. "You like this kind of sex, huh?"A laugh escapes my throat. "Who wouldn't?" I pull away from her to undo her ankle; I had no idea my baby was capable of such wild sex. Samantha whines. I stop and look up to her, stroking her thighs. "Relax, baby, your ankle." I undo the binds from her ankles before resuming my position beside her and hugging her tightly, pressing her breasts into my chest as if someone may try to sneak her out from under me while I'm asleep. I twist my legs, forcing my pants, which are still hanging around my knees, to roll down.We breathe in the scent of sex mingled with sweat.I brush her blonde hair, whispering sweet words to her ears and watching her fall asleep in my arms, so beautiful and peaceful.And once again, we forgot to use condoms, and I have no idea if she is under birth control, but I have the hunch she is not. I am her first lover, and I hope to be her last. She had no end of having casual sex before us.
WEST'S POVWhat nonsense? We have gone this far, and now just to get a legal certificate and good sponsorship, we end up sealing up our site and waiting for a murderer to be found? My mind is hazy with thoughts as I drive to Luca's home. I remove my tie and jacket, throwing them in my backseat and stepping out. I knock on the door, and Austin is the first to welcome me. "Good morning, Uncle West.""Good morning, big boy." I put my hands in his underarm and lift it high in the air, causing him to giggle. I carry him for a while on my arms; he struggles against me to get down. "Where is Daddy?""He is coming, honey." I set Austin down, and he rubs back into their house. I smile in admiration of the lad.Lily walks out. "Hey, West." She hugs me. "You didn't go to the site? Luca is already there.""I did. Luca is on his way back too." "Why?"I don't know what exactly I'm supposed to tell her. This is business, but she is family. Hmm. I bit my lips and looked towards the gate, willing Luc
SAMANTHA'S POVA dead body? Harry's dead body? Luca and West need to find the murderer. I speed in my car more, not caring to obey the speed limit. Lily's car, but it may well end up as mine.I can't go back to the suite; what if the cops are already hiding under the bed and waiting to arrest me? What am I going to do? I continue driving 'my' car aimlessly, having nowhere in mind to go to. I have to run, but where will I run to? I can't go to jail, no, no, no, I can't. I need to hide. Where will I hide in Indonesia that they won't find me?I can't go back to Luca's home; I can't go to the suite; I can't go to the site; I can't go anywhere! I drive aimlessly around the city, stopping the car once by the roadside to rest, but by the time I wake, the clouds are dark and daylight has vanished. I tap on my screen, and I'm shocked when the time informs me that it is night already. How did I sleep for this long? I yawn and resume the driving. I take a left turn and another turn, the road gro
WEST'S POV"We have to look for a way around this." I say louder for the second time, in case Luca did not hear me the first time.Luca finally turns his face from the window and looks at me. "What do you mean, a way around this?" He doesn't try to hide his irritation out of his voice. "The case is with the state now; you can't ask me to drop charges that I'm not pressing... and even if I had my way, I won't drop it.""Did you hear yourself?" I move closer to Luca, who is sitting behind his desk."Do you hear yourself too?" He repeats my question. "Our business is on the line. We could lose everything we have worked so hard for if we don't cooperate with the authorities to find the murderer.""And what is your deal? What is in it for you?" I sit down on the chair opposite his desk."For me?" He taps on his chest. "A lot is in it for us. Why don't you want us to find the culprit? An innocent person is lying dead, and his killer is roaming free. What will it take from us to support the
SAMANTHA'S POV I feel so stupid right now. After everything my husband has done for me, this is how I repay him—by ditching him on our wedding.The grumpy officer bangs heavily on the metal gate of our cell. "Wake up; your family is here; you are going home." He unlocks it and holds it open for us. I tap my girls to wake up, and I rush over to the officer. "How did they know that...""Don't ask me any questions." He spits.We all run out of the cell to meet everyone. Luca looks pissed, Lily looks really mad, and West... well, West looks disappointed. In me. "I'm sorry." I try to touch West's hands, but he flinches. "It's 6:45 am. The wedding is by 7:00 am." West walks out without another word to me. Lily and Luca walk out as well. Great! I collect my property and rush out to join them in West's limousine, with Stacy, Alice, and Maria following behind me.It doesn't take up to five seconds for us to reach the mansion, or maybe it's just my thinking, but I don't dare to check the time
SAMANTHA'S POV "Come on, wear something hot." Alice tugs at my arm."Are you crazy? I'm a married woman.""You are not yet a married woman; it's still tomorrow. For what it is worth, today is your spinster's eve."I'm not dressing indecently, and that's on period. This is a little too much now." I light the dress with the tip of my finger to show how disgusting it is. "This is the kind of thing I should wear for my honeymoon, for West's eyes only, not to a damn club full of people.""Huh," Alice shakes her head. "You have not really enjoyed your life; now you are getting married?""Why are we even still going through? Lily is not coming. The men are having theirs in a cafe, and we are going to the club. I don't know why, but I don't feel right about this. I don't know what my mind is making me feel like something bad has happened or is about to happen. I don't know if it has something to do with Lily warning me to be careful. "Of course we are ladies; we have to go to a club." Alice
SAMANTHA'S POV "How do you feel?" A voice calls out to me. "Sam." The voice is familiar. "Are you still asleep? Wake up!"I stir on the bed, obeying the order; my eyes fly open; the room is too bright. My eyes close on their own accord; taking time to get acquainted with the light, they reopen, and that's when I look around. I'm on a hospital bed? "Why am I on a hospital bed?" I mutter to myself. I can't really remember clearly the events of the last few hours, but I know I'm pregnant. My fingers roam across the bump on my belly...but it feels flatter. I look down. "Where is my baby?""Relax. Our baby is fine." The familiar voice reassures me as I feel a set of strong fingers wrap around my fingers. West.I turn to him and notice a plaster on his shoulder; red backs and bruises on his exposed skin bring back the ugly memories. I was kidnapped; I was taken care of. Tiffany brought a doctor that tried to cut my belly open; my West helped me push out our baby. I smile. "Thank you, honey
LILY'S POV"Everybody in this van is bleeding and needs medical attention; please, driver, speed on!" I tap on Maria's seat.Maria triples the speed of the car, flying over road bumps and bumping into lightweight trees, and we are lucky we are still driving in the lonely part of the city; else those light trees would have been people.I turn to Samantha, whose eyes are now shut. "Sam?" I look up to West, who is holding her in his arms; his neck is hanging loosely to the side. He is asleep, and his shoulder is bleeding. "There is no first aid box in this van?" I turn to Danny, who is being attended to by one of the females in his gang, Clara. He signals me that she will come to us soon. I turn back to Samantha, whose eyes are still closed. "Samantha. Samantha!" I shout and shake her body, drawing the attention of Luca and West. "What is wrong?""Is she okay?""She is not answering." I reply to them, my eyelids wet with tears as I continue shaking her."Samantha!" West rested his head
WEST'S POV"Run!!" Luca shouts. "Go with the baby and Sam."Thank goodness, I'm a hulk; I place my baby on my back and wrap another cloth over her tightly on my chest. I do everything with demon speed. I lift my fiancée in my arms and walk out through the back door. I check both sides; it's really cleared. I memorized the map in my hands before shoving it into my pants pocket, and we started moving out through the bush tracks.We are still in close range of the building when a voice calls out. "You need any assistance, though, man?"I turn to my left to find a redhead watching me. I shake my head. "I don't need help.""Why? We could really be of help."The next voice is from my right side. Another man is watching me. That's odd. No one was supposed to be on this bush track. Don't panic. West. Don't panic. I ignore them and try to refocus on my task. "West!" That voice is familiar. Too familiar, and that is because I have known the bearer my whole life, or almost my whole life.I turn
WEST'S POVMy first thought is to carry her out of here and take her to a hospital, but the van we brought is packed more than 100 miles away. There is still a set of bodyguards waiting for us at the entrance or already coming after us, but the way I'm seeing Sam right now, I don't think we have the luxury of time to waste. We will deliver the baby!I fold the sleeves of my hoodies, and my eyes land on the bedside desk, which looks like an operation table because of the things on it: a syringe, a pack of hand gloves, cotton wool, a pad, towels, a blanket, and a knife. "Is it safe to use this?"She nods. "They brought a doctor. She wanted to force my baby out."What? Is that how devilish Tiffany can be? I want to find her and kill her right away, but I have to wait and attend to Sam first; she is more important. I stretch to the table and open the pack of gloves, and I remove a pair.A loud gunshot pierces through the air as violent men rush in. I cover my body partially over Sam, look
LILY'S POV"Oh my gosh! I feel like I'm in a movie scene right now. I told you, Maria. I felt like something crazy was about to happen to us." I look around the silk van that was arranged by one of my husband's friends. It is screaming top assassin machinery with the black leather seats, speaker, radio, and TV on the top and dark-tinted glass and all of Maria's electronic gadgets and wires, and oh, don't get me started with the demon speed of this vehicle. "Well, here we are." Maria laughs. She had successfully arranged the fake business deal between us and Viktor. "Yes, Clara, keep moving." She says.We watch Clara and Austin carry briefcases each and confidently stroll through the gate. The empire is in the middle of nowhere with tall bushes surrounding the skyscraper kind of fence. It's the kind of building that screams danger from afar. The guard by the gate is well stocked with rifles and arms on every part of his chest and arms. We can see him stretch out his hands to Clara and
LILY'S POV"Welcome in! I hear you have news about my sister. How is she? My husband informed me of your arrival." I adjust the denim dress I have on as I step aside and open the door wider for the guest to enter in."Hi, good morning." He enters in, tall and tough-looking; the man I believe is Donny walks in. "Your sister is perfectly fine." Assures me.I move to close the door, but a tougher-looking man enters in, and another, and soon a small battalion is congregating in my living room. I look around in confusion; my husband had only informed me of one man, Donny. "Welcome all." I smile, trying not to look receptive."After they are all seated, it doesn't take long for the familiar sound of my husband's car to roll in. Luca, West, and Maria, a girl Tiffany had introduced to us as her friend from New Voices Co, help themselves into the living room, and we begin the business of the day.Donny takes the floor to talk to us all on the current state of affairs. "Sam is in Vicktor's camp
SAMANTHA'S POVTiffany! I should have ended her when I had the chance. I rise to my feet angrily, causing the chair to stumble and fall backwards. "A restraining order couldn't fucking do it?" Sam. Is Sam missing? No. I start pacing around, tousling my hair like a lunatic. Where do I find her? Tiffany! I'm so mad at myself to think that I waited this much precious time chasing after dust when... How do I even find Tiffany?"What is going on in that mind of yours?" Luca's voice draws me back to reality."I...." How do I put everything I'm feeling in one word? "Tiffany...Sam. Sam is missing!""What?""How can Sam be missing?" Two distinct female voices cry from the doorway.I turn around to see two ladies rushing into the office. Alice and Stacy. "Do you know where she went to from the mall?""Home." She turns to the other girl. "Isn't it, Stacy? Where else will she go? What happened to her? The girl's eyes look so glassy as if she is about to cry. Why?Luca stands from his chair. "I w
