An urgent call

2024-10-29 19:42:56"You were scared last night?" Adele asked suddenly remembering his words. She couldn't ask him back then.
His kiss was soft and tender, in which she was compelled to melt. She never thought she would accept a kiss from the so called husband, her first kiss. She was wondering how much affect this man had on her from the first meeting. The affects were increasing day by day. Inspite of their ignored marriage, she started to feel something for him.
Albert turned his head after hearing the question. He remembered their first kiss. He was glad she didn't push him away even started kissing him back later."What do you think?" He chose to let her find the answer herself.
It's been 14 years since he started to find her. Even after his marriage his only thought was around that little cute Amber whom he promised to protect with his life. Though he failed once, he wanted to make up for it. Now he fo

Adele's POV"Brother Rob, can't you stay a little more?" I knew he couldn't. But he was the only person in LA who had access in every phase of my life, personal or professional. He was the only one to give me support all the time, he tried to keep me safe."Come on Adele! Don't behave like a kid. I was here with a goal and I reached it. Now I don't have any reason to stay here." He sighed. Maybe he didn't want to leave the city, but he had a lot of responsibilities to fulfill.Then he turned to Albert and said, "Hope you will take a good care of her. My job's done. Now she's your responsibility." He patted his shoulder and hugged him tightly."Bye!" Closing eyes, he muttered faintly. Instantly a group of people surrounded him as he started walking.I smiled faintly. I knew his reasons and works. Of course I was not dumb to not understand his profession or responsibility. Albert was sad but he knew the

"Who are you?" Samuel Cooper was trying to free himself from the chair. His hands and legs were tied with nylon ropes and even his eyes were blindfolded. He could only use his voice for protest. But there was no one to listen to him.Robin was standing there with a devilish grin. His eyes lit up hearing the torture session. He was holding a light solution of sulphuric acid with gloved hands. It was enough of burn anyone's upper skin but not enough to burn deeply. With a smirk he splashed a little towards him. When each drop of the splash gave burning sensation to Cooper's skin, he screamed."I asked who are you?" He screamed with all of his life. But that only made Robin to splash once again."Who I am?" He repeated the question and suddenly opened his blindfold. As Robin used mask to hide his face, Samuel and couldn't see him."You remember Liam who killed Elijah Wilson?" He asked in a calm voice.Samuel looked
Darkness in our life A challenge
Adele's POV I'm filthy! I'm filthy! That Liam made me filthy. He took my innocence forcefully. I never wanted to remember these again and again. It just made me more and more bloodthirsty, it turned me to a demon that I never wanted to be. "Ade!" Albert roared at me. His voice contained too much anger but his eyes reflected concern. I couldn't believe his eyes sometimes. No one except my family showed concern about me. I closed my eyes and lowered my head, "Leave me, Albert! Please." I didn't want to open up my weakness, my filth. I didn't want anyone to drag into my life. Not even him. "Adele!! Listen to me." He grabbed my arms tightly, maybe so tight to stop blood circulation. He put his index finger under me chin and made me look at him. "How did all these happen? Tell me." His voice turned soft. What should I say? Would he like to listen to it? Would he like to know how his wife became filthy?
Darkness in our life A real heir
Adele's POVBeing with Albert never made me regret. From the first meeting, I felt secured and protected around him. I was feeling those senses were growing deeper each passing day, and that's the thing I feared most. He didn't know anything about me except my parent's real identity. I knew that was enough for him to cherish me but for me I was still confused.Last night, I saw another Albert in front of me. He was not ruthless or cruel, he was just soft and caring. I was afraid of falling for him. I didn't come here to stay or start a new life. I must go back to San Francisco because I already made a promise. One part of me wanted to stay in his embrace while the other wanted to run away. His life was full of darkness that pulled me towards him but having no way back bothered me most."Mam! You can go in." Ryan's words brought me back to work. Ryan knocked the office door twice and guestered me to go in. I raised an eyebrow. Albert still
Darkness in our life A night so heated
"I'm sorry....I'm....so...sorry." the man was stammering in front of Albert which caused him smirk like a devil. For the man lying on the floor in a bloody state, Albert was the God of death. "Sorry?" Albert's smirk darkened, "I think Xavier should say that." Xavier sighed with the sentence. He knew what his boss actually meant. But the man on the floor was still unaware of the depth of his words. "How dare you try to leak our underworld data?" Albert was furicious. If the data got leaked, the whole mafia organisation would fall in danger. He got an order from their head to get rid of this poor but scheming person. The man gulped hard. He almost tried to hack these data for long three months. But when he succeeded in doing this, suddenly some people kidnapped him. Actually the organisation was observing his every move. So they let her hack it but planned something else. Albert lit up a cigarette. He handed the lighter t

Albert woke up groaning feeling cold all over. He blinked his eyes twice to understand what happened. His hand fell on the cold bed where no one was present.Ade!Amber!Was she gone? Did she leave him? Did she regret it?Panick rushed through his veins. He punched on the nightstand hard. Gripping his hair tightly, he tried to release his tensions.Fuck! Who asked him to consummate their marriage? Why didn't he control himself? Why did it rush to physical relations?It was okay for her to be by his side. She was with him and that was enough. But after consuming all of his darkness, how could she leave him? How could she abandon him after being his only home?Albert got up and cleaned their mess. He took the time to calm him though a lot of pain and fear was running through his mind. He took his phone and dialled her number."Hello!" A male voice came to make him more tensed."Mmmm....W
Darkness in our life An unwanted person
Albert's POV "Hey Victor! Long time no see." That voice..... fuck! I've heard her after long three years. But wasn't she transferred in some other base of the organisation? Why was she here? I looked behind and saw the girl in formal suit. She didn't change a bit except she changed her hair colour. They were good in blonde. The new dark brown didn't suit her well. "Sophia." I muttered clenching my jaw. She was another name of trouble to me. I was happy when mafia organisation transferred her to China. She was really irritating. But now again, I needed to tolerate her nonsense. "Tell me how was the surprise." She asked with a smirk hugging me sensually. Very shocking! The worst surprise of life. "Surprising." I said in a cold tone when she didn't leave me. I didn't want to hug her back. I was not interested in her or in her hugs. Why didn't she understand? "Shit! Victor. You didn't change. Still cold
Darkness in our life A meeting of poors
Knight Enterprises Meeting room Albert was sitting with clench jaw. His eyes reddened with anger, face motionless, cold. Hands on a file grabbing with a tight fist. The person sitting next to him contained a amusing look towards him. Sitting lazily on the chair, he tried to suppress his laughter. "Wait a little. She's coming." The man said looking at Albert carelessly. "Your assistant is late for the meeting. How could you take this kind of person for work?" He was furicious. He never learnt to wait. But this man and his assistant was making him wait for half an hour. Albert didn't want to ruin their business relationship as it was connected to mafia organisation somehow. The man just smiled raising an eyebrow, "She isn't my assistant. Just working for fun." "How can you be so unprofessional?" Albert asked coldly. "Since when I'm professional?" He smirked. Suddenly the door of meeting room

Darkness in our life End of the story
Albert was feeling so relaxed yet stressed at the same time. It felt good to get a family back. Again he took a huge responsibility not knowing even if he was eligible for it or not. He noticed something has changed in Adele. She was looking so calm and composed unlike times when she opened up herself. Sitting next to her laptop lazily in the bed, she kept checking some important files. "You are not even working, what are you really thinking?" Albert asked curiously as he noticed her unmindfulness. Adele didn't say anything. She could only sigh. "I am sorry." Albert raised his head to look at her. What was the apology for? "Pardon?" "I'm sorry, Albert." She closed the laptop and bit her lips. "Why are you saying sorry? Did anything happen?" Albert

"Are you okay?" Alexandra asked in a low voice. Jacob got injured because of escaping from the car. He was taken to the hospital by them. Licas and Alexandra reached there almost immediately.Jacob lifted his hand a little to touch her head. Brushing fingers on her skin, he felt the warmth reached to his heart. It was his daughter whom he never got close to him. He loved her but never could say that. Unknowingly a drop of tear fell from his eyes. He didn't cry for a long time. Only he cried in front of his wife. She was gone taking all of his tears away. Now there came his children, who could make him emotional.He nodded a little with a small smile. He was really happy. He got his family back, with him. They even saved him. No matter how much they hated him, they still had a soft corner for him."Are you angry with me?" He asked in a shaky voice. He knew the answer.

Adele's POV"Nathan Lan? Or should I say Alessandro Colombo?" I looked into his eyes. It was giving me devilish pleasure seeing him tied up helpless, at our mercy. I couldn't believe it when I called him 'Brother Nathan'. I liked him so much. He was like my family. I believed him all my life.Fuck him!Fuck to that belief I had on him. He's a bloody betrayer. He betrayed my emotions. I was a freakin fool to believe him. Suddenly I found I caused a lot of trouble in my family. My stubbornness just gave them a hard time. My fucking belief led Elora to a danger. I am hopeless."Adele Wilson, you are such an idiot. Took so long to understand." He was laughing like a devil, which he really was. Xavier was his peopl

Adele's POV Lucas seemed tense. His hands were cold when I touched it. I couldn't understand what he was afraid of. But one thing for sure, he was guilty. The whole family was giving him cold shoulder from then except Sil. If it was not Albert, I would have misunderstood him too. He had nothing to do in all these. He was just forced to listen to the commands and he could only do that. "Amber…." I heard Sil's blurry voice suddenly. Maybe she woke up from sleep. She was never a late riser but maybe emotional breakdown and mental tiredness made her sleep until noon today. But what about her office? It's not a weekend. "Sil, did you get a day off?" I asked curiously when she started to get and leaned on the headboard. "She was not feeling good. So I just called Adam and informed she won't be in her office today. She needs rest. She
Darkness in our life Truth hurts
Albert was sitting there in a daze. He couldn't think straight. Sitting in the middle of the bed, he was lost in thoughts. Adele was feeling a little guilty. After all her cousin did so bad to him. He knew it still never complained. He loved her without any hesitation."Albert." She called and sat beside him. She patted his shoulder a little, "I'm sorry. I knew Jacob Smith was your father but I didn't inform you.""It's okay. He's scary. Good thing you didn't pick up a fight with him." Albert leaned on her shoulder. He was feeling vulnerable. He was broken inside."I'm sorry, I didn't know Lucas….." She sighed.Albert shook his head with her words, "Don't blame him. He had nothing to do. He was forced like me. But I'm wondering why he took all of the blame on his shoulder. Why didn't he protest?"
Darkness in our life Blame
"So dad was killed because of this?" Adele's voice trembled while asking this. She knew the answer, yet she thought to confirm. She wasted two years of her life because of Ramond Knight. Turns out Ramond Knight was just an advantage seeker. The real villain was Jacob Smith, yet he didn't have any intentions of doing that. How could she blame him? "Kind of. You know the story." Jacob Smith knew many lives were at stake because of him. Yet he was never practically involved with them. Wasn't it an irony? "So my dad died because of my father in law? I don't know how to accept that." She sighed. She didn't want to accept that. The little respect she had for Jacob was long gone. She was thinking how Albert was reacting to all these. He loved Mason Knight and Elijah Wilson a lot. Now they died willingly or unwillingly because of his real dad. Sometimes trying to protect him, sometimes without any reason. It must be
Darkness in our life Revelation
Albert's POV I was feeling like my whole world got shaken. My whole existence was a lie, a lie created by Jacob Smith and directed by Lucas Wilson. I was looking at Ms. Rivera all the time. What did she mean? I was her brother? I was her biological brother. Moreover I was the son of Jacob Smith. Jacob Smith!? He was known as the assistant of Old master Richardo, Adam and Ryan's grandfather. After their father's death, he took care of the family and businesses. But who knew he was the real owner of a Mafia organisation?! That means I'm the heir of this organisation? Things were really complicated. What about dad? My dad? Mason Knight? What about uncle Wilson? Did Robert know that? I couldn't think s
Darkness in our life Family dinner
"Why did you marry me, Adam?" Those words suddenly fell from Elora's mouth. She couldn't help but ask after all these. At first she really thought it was just a novel type flash marriage. He needed to get rid of his grandfather's pampering words and that's why he wanted to marry her. But the first confusion came into her brain, when she found Ryan was his brother and Adele was his friend. If that was true then no way he never heard about her or saw her. Of course they had her pictures. But things became very complicated when he was Alexandra's subordinate, even Ryan included. All those things could only be coincidence, well she didn't believe it. There was something bigger than she thought. And she knew she was right. Because she found Jacob's text in his phone. Adam didn't reply. He had nothing to say. Things were not easy to explain and he knew Jacob would do that tonight. So it was good not to open his mo
