Jeremy's POV

I take a bite of the red apple and watch the juice slide through my fingers down the length of my arm and on top of the pristine counter. I force myself to ignore it as the tic starts and I count backward in my head.

1011, 1010, 1009, 1008…

The silence of the moment is punctuated by teeth-crushing apple bits and the steady drip of apple juice.

My phone buzzes and I glance at the notification.

Unknown: WE KNOW WHAT YOU DID THAT NIGHT

My incisors bite sharply into the fruit, leaving a gaping hole in its place as the cell pings with another notification from unknown. I count before I read.

999, 998, 997, 996…

Unknown: WE HAVE PROOF

I make a quick work of the fruit and toss it in the bin then find the kitchen rag and vigorously wipe the counter according to my counts before heading to my room.

The apartment is silent until the phone buzzes again. My expression furrows and I remember I have a loose end to bind.

Watching my mother die when I was eight broke something critical

    Seven Hours to #POAT… I enter the dingy breakfast diner and spot Junnev sitting in the far corner facing the parking lot. I slide onto the faded crescent-shaped leather cushion opposite him, noticing his pinched expression. “What?” “The food here's lousy, Kila,” He shoves at the tray of chips, giving it the stink eye. “Oh, what a tragedy,” I reply with a hand to my chest and mock concern on my face. “Fucking prick.” A dry chuckle escapes me and a few heads veer in our direction. Malakai strides in two minutes later and there's a storm brewing in his eyes as he settles beside Junnev. Junnev looks at him, “What's with the sour look?” “Did you trace the link?” I ask. “I tried to hack into their firewall but the bitch locked me out.” He looks pissed. “Bitch?” “The encryption was a tragic love story and before I could figure that out, she locked me out.” He complains, “Only a wild bitch or some lovesick fuck would think that shit up.” “The blackmailers must be those girls,” J

    Jeremy's POV Malakai is the party playboy who throws the wildest parties in school history. He's the free spirit who's friends with everyone and can see inside everyone's dirty locker. Literally. He's also the renounced son of Jimmy Falconer– leader of the Scottish Mafia. Junnev is the football team's Co-captain so he has a default pass into Kingston's circle, plus his girlfriend's friends with Kingston's girl–Claire Eastwood. He was one of the spies my father sent to monitor me. Meanwhile, I'm the billionaire bastard Slash Genius Artist. Leaving the bluster to Justin and his boys, I'm the elusive brat who the females swoon for whenever I pass by. They leave presents in front of my workshop like I'm some stray they're trying to tame. It’s irritating but if it gets Kingston blowing off his rockets then I'll allow it. Yes, I have an entire classroom to myself, a space I utilize for my guilty pleasure–sculpting–courtesy of my father's generous donation to Sabbel. My Father watches m

    JoJo's POV Five Hours to #POAT… He doesn't know. He doesn't know. He doesn't know… I repeat the mantra, squeezing my eyes shut as the scalding water pelters down on my pale skin. Suddenly, his dark eyes are all I can see and I feel them staring at me with undisguised contempt. I stifle a shudder, grab the body wash, squirt a generous amount on the loofah and vigorously scrub at my skin, hoping my conflicted emotions leaves with the smell of rain as I rinse off. I lift my face to the hot spurts coming from the shower head and his hot breath is on my face, whispering into my ears. A whimper escapes my lips before I can stop myself and I immediately turn off the tap and step out of the foggy bathroom. “Nope, not going there.” I scold my treacherous body, “Jeremy Vongov is a psychopath slash serial killer in the making–pfft, so what he's hotter than sin even when he's throwing a death glare,” An heat of his tongue running over my face and the coldness of his tongue piercing has

    JoJo's POV We spend the next two hours drawing up different strategies to get Jeremy Vongov where we want him— a compromising position with Ken that'd spread dating rumors like wildfire. “Ken, you'll pick him from the crowd and take him to the kissing booth then you'll show him the video and negotiate—” “What if he tries to kill her when they're locked in the kissing booth.” I protest and they turn to me with a look of confusion. “He can't kill me in public, Jo, and besides we've got our black belts,” Ken jokingly assures me. Yeah and look how well that worked for me. I shrug at her words. “He can't touch her, not with our leverage over him and we'll be outside just in case,” Mallory concludes. My nerves are all over the place. I'm not so sure about the plan anymore because the sick feeling in my stomach is back and it's making my heart pitter-patter all over my chest. Should I spill what happened or should I suck it up and stick to the plan? I shake my head, drawing curiou

    Jeremy's POV Her reaction is blanched with shock as I pull her head out of the water, giving her five seconds to catch her breath before plunging her head in. Her red hair forms a crimson halo, flouncing around my hand as she thrashes around in the water. I stare, transfixed at the ethereal image. I pull her back, studying her facials as she coughs, sputters out water, and tries to pool in large gulps of air at the same time. “You aren't helping, Dian.” She glares at me through wet blue contacts, “My name is Josephine—” I plunge her head back into the water and shake it for good measure then I toss a towel into the water. She gets the message and her hands scramble for the piece of cloth, scrubbing off the make-up and contacts in record time and taps on the tub but I give her another ten seconds before pulling her out. Her loud gasp echoes as her head is whipped out of the tub, tremors racking through her body. I study her pale features. “Crimson strands, Porcelain skin, Dark

    Jeremy's POV I was eleven the first time I'd noticed her. The Parent Teacher Meeting had come with a shitty weather that Saturday afternoon and Grandma continuously squeezed my hands as the teachers sang my praises about my unrivaled IQ while subtly griping about my social life or lack thereof. Belleville, a teacher amongst the rest, had been expressing her grief at not pushing me hard enough to get with the other kids to which Grandma responded with a patronizing nod. I sighed my boredom at the shameless ass-licking Belleville was putting on as my eyes roamed lazily until they landed at a figure beyond the door. She wasn't the most beautiful girl I'd ever seen but there was something about her, something about her eyes, even with the huge round glasses, they were different. As I looked into their brown depths, a weird deja vu feeling knocked into me. It made the hairs on my nape stand straight. I stared at her but she wasn't looking at me, she was drooling at Justin Kingston,

    JOJO’s POV Two Months Later… They were graduating high school today but Josephine would always go back to that day each time she passed the workshop. She and over three hundred graduates passed by the workshop today but no one spoke about it. They had all forgotten. It felt like they'd forgotten everything linked to him along with him and that made Josephine sick to her stomach. One month ago, She, Junnev, and Jeremy were hanging on for dear lives in the hospital. Of their three cases, Jeremy’s was the most baffling because apart from the external injuries he suffered from the accidents and the cement, the doctors couldn't find anything wrong with him. So why wouldn't he wake up? They closed off Jeremy in a special room for “intense observation purposes,” that's what they called it. They kept him there until he was cleared for flight to be transported back to America. Junnev knee joints were broken from the weight of concrete. He’d woken up during the surgery, his tone mighty

    Kendrick tried to stand but her ears were ringing so badly from the explosion so she used her hands to cover them and suddenly there was a semblance of peace in the chaos that had become the world. Kendrick blinked debris and dust from her eyes as she looked around, trying to find a familiar face. She couldn't see past the dust that had formed from the explosion but she could hear the awful screams and the rapid-fire gunshots and those sounds would stay with her forever. Bullets were flying left and right and Kendrick knew she had to get out. She needed to get out of there before she got hit by a stray bullet or before the ceiling caved in or before she died from a heart attack so she put one leg in front of the other and trudged along. The dust was settling and she could see certain parts of the building clearer. She looked around the unconsciously fed bodies of men to see Jeremy and Junnev covered with debris and as she got closer to them, her mouth widened in horror. They wer

    Jeremy couldn't comprehend when the plan started falling apart but it had in fact… fallen. Lying in front of him were two bodies, Josephine was lying on the dirty ground, blood pouring out of her chest, yet she tried to sit up. Jeremy ran to her and took her trembling body into his arms, trying to apply enough pressure on her wound but crimson just kept flowing to the ground, steadily forming a pool of red around them. She’d run into the line of fire as he shot at her kidnapper. Why did she do that? Why? He racked his brain for a tangible reason but came up empty. Next to her was the masked kidnapper, they called her The Mistress. He had heard tales about her horrible doings since he'd been a tween, each one more fearsome than the last yet here she was, fallen by a mere bullet. She was dead. “Kila!” His father's men called from behind and he whipped around to see Maxim holding onto his bleeding neck. Apparently, the Mistress had decided his father would be her last victim.

    “You are more like a pirate than an actual cop,” Junnev sparked after Burkely ended the call. “I am retired, Kid. Besides, all my years of following the law and reporting everything I saw left me without a wife, a roof over my head, and eventually a Jobless alcoholic with no future except nabbing one man.” “That's…” “Pathetic, I know.” Burkely fished out another stick of cigarette. “I'm a living, breathing bundle of addiction!” Burkely finished his tirade with his arms spread apart– eagle form on the sidewalk with a wide smile, pasted on his face as horns blared from vehicles passing by them. Junnev tugged his hands down and hissed through clenched teeth, “Control yourself, Old man. We don't want to draw any unwanted attention to ourselves.” Burkely shrugged out of Junnev’s hold and glared up at the kid, “Don’t call me an old man. You know my name, so use it.” “I'll call you whatever the fuck I want since you are the one who keeps forgetting,” Junnev responded with angry sparks

    Something was wrong and Doc was certain, it had something to do with Josephine. The Dukes couple and their men were currently situated close to the bushes, away from the main road. Their men were well hidden with their guns and rifles in the surrounding bushes while waiting for the signal from their bosses who were inside a parked reporter van down the road. Doc was furious, anxious, and more so, scared as she got out of the van and paced down the length of the road. She tried again and again to get a hold of Jeremy Vongov but his line was switched off. “I told you we shouldn't have trusted him.” Will quipped from the back of the vehicle. “This is no time to point fingers, Will. Something bad has happened and we need to do something.” “How about you get Mallory and Kendrick and their friends involved? Get them to track down Jeremy.” Doc turned away from her husband, “It's too dangerous Will, why’d think we've been knowingly throwing them off course? Our hackers will easily h

    “There was something in the air,” Jeremy thought to himself as he stalked to the back SUV where his father was already seated. Maxim looked composed and rather cheerful as he watched his son get into the vehicle from his side eye. “I told you no one was to touch her,” Jeremy growled in a chilling tone. “Oh, stop your grumbling, we have a big day ahead of us.” Maxim waved him off and grabbed the glass of vodka on the armrest, taking a healthy swallow. Jeremy schooled back his features and settled for a stiff smile, “Yes, we do Father.” “Good,” The vehicle sets in reverse and slowly pulls out of the driveway then it accelerates as the driver moves down the road and silence settles in the vehicle. Jeremy uses the quiet to finalize his plans by sending out a few texts and receiving a confirmed reply. “Tell me boy, how did your talk with the redhead go?” “That's none of your business.” “Humor me.” Jeremy locks his phone and focuses on his father, “Why do you care?” “Because yo

    JOJO'S POV The truth hurts, doesn't it? Jeremy steps into the room right after his father slips out and goes into a full-on wrath when he sees me in chains and I want to slap him. I want to punch him so hard in his nutsack that he feels something's wrong down there each time he takes a step. Motherfucker, I want to stump on his ugly heart and crack it into a thousand tiny pieces. Pieces so tiny, they'd be impossible to place back. I want to break him. So badly it hurts to sit there quietly and do nothing. Which is what I’m doing when the chains are finally gone from my wrists, instead I ask, “What happened when you were eight years old?” He stiffens and his eyes turn into a void. “Jeremy?” I call but it's like he can't hear me. “Jeremy?!!” I call louder, shaking him a little. “Uh, Josephine?” “I asked you a question.” I probe, not letting up. His eyes harden to black stones, “It's none of your business.” “Of course it is, I want to know how you came to grow up in Ameri

    Maxim Vongov Maxim's teeth grounded to his jaw as he realized how much time, his son had taken. It was time to make the trade and Jeremy was nothing if not time conscious. The kid was getting sloppy. He watched from the monitors as Jeremy kissed his girlfriend goodbye and left the room. Maxim turned to Yuri, “Make sure he's detained properly.” “Another safe house?” “No, he'll come with me but I want him restrained, twice as much as before.” “I'll get it done, boss.” “I want an audience with the girl.” “I'll arrange it, boss.” “Good and make sure my son doesn't know about the little visit.” Yuri nods his acquiescence just as Jeremy bounds into the room and Yuri subtly leaves. “To what do I owe this pleasure, father.” Unsurprisingly, his bastard of an heir didn't look very happy to see his father after locking him up in a house for more than twenty-four hours. “Did you tell the girl?” He bares his teeth at his father, “That has nothing to do with you.” “The fucking ingrat

    JoJo's POV I wake up in his arms, feeling the warmth of his body heat fanning against my skin. His breath is shallow but when I crane my neck to see, his eyes are shut. He's asleep. I need to pee, so I try to untangle myself from his arms but they only tighten around me. “Whereareyougoing?” His deep voice is a gruffy rasp and I feel its feathery weight on my skin as he rolls us to the other side of the bed. “I need to pee!” I whisper-yell, squeezing my sore thighs in impatience. “Okay, okay.” He begrudgingly lets go of me and I slap his chest before I scurry over to the bathroom. In my birthday suit. At this point, I can't be embarrassed about rushing off to the bathroom barebacked with him in the room. Not after he’s fucked me ten ways to Sunday. I bend over to pee and I realize Jeremy cleaned me up earlier and that single thought has me holding onto my chest and hyperventilating in the kitchen sink. What does this mean?
