Officer Parks looked at Crystal. There were tears in his eyes. “I am sorry,” he said, “but I have to do my job. You understand, right?”
“Please,” Crystal begged. “This isn’t right. I didn’t do anything!”
“I’ll make it quick,” Parks promised as he stood up and walked around the table. He pulled her out of her up by her hair with his left hand. Then he punched her in the gut with his right hand, and when she grasped her stomach, he reached into her pocket and swiped her phone.
Chief Oskin chuckled and said, “Like taking candy from a baby.” Then, he turned to Officer Parks.
“Get her out of my sight. She makes me want to puke. Stubborn criminal like her has no space in this
Nathan passed through the officers’ line and parked his sports car in the handicapped space by the front of the Police Station. He stepped out, saluted the soldiers, and then turned to face the two chiefs standing in the station’s entrance.Nathan was tall, he had a muscular build, and in his black suit, he exuded an aura of strength and power. No one could look at him as he was and not feel at least a little bit intimidated.James rushed to meet him halfway, offered his hand to shake, and said, “Mr. Davis, you honor us with your visit. Is there anything we can help you with?”Nathan gave an outstretched hand a disdainful look and refused to touch it. Then, when James pulled it back awkwardly, he smirked and said, “I’m here about a video I saw on YouTube earlier. Do you know what
Nathan ran the key card across the scanner that opened the Interrogation Room’s door, and Crystal pushed it open. The couple walked into the room together. The woman who’d supplied the eggs was on one side of the desk, while Officer Parks was sitting opposite her.When the woman saw Crystal, she turned to Parks and said, “She isn’t supposed to be here. Aren’t you going to do your job and lock her up?”Parks nodded and said, “I’m on it.” He had no idea what had happened between James and Nathan, so he got up and went around the desk. Before he could get to Crystal, though, Nathan stepped in, grabbed his arm, twisted it, and forced him to the ground. Then Nathan kicked him in the head, and he lost consciousness as he fell to the ground.By the time Parks woke up, t
Crystal looked at the woman who’d provided the eggs. “What’s your name, anyway?” she asked.“M-Mary,” the woman replied. “My n-name is Mary W-Wiggins…”“Well, Mary,” Crystal said. “If you don’t have any more information for me, it’s time for you to start eating the eggs.” As she talked, she took the glass of water on the table and poured its contents over Mary’s head. Then she cracked the two eggs she’d brought with her and emptied their contents into the cup. Finally, she handed the glass to Mary. “Waste not, want not,” Crystal said, and the grin on her face was not unlike that of a shark. “Drink up.”Mary looked at the glass, and her expression could see her feeling of revulsion. She
It wasn’t until Nathan had finished putting away the blow dryer, the portable table, and the chair that he realized it had been a while since Crystal had spoken.He frowned, “What are you thinking?” he asked.Crystal had been staring at the scratches on her arms, and she hadn’t been thinking about anything. Nathan’s question startled her, and she looked up. She thought for a moment, and then she said, “I was trying to think of how to thank you for acting as my hero today.”Nathan’s hand suddenly froze. Crystal’s unexpected politeness and obedience brought a trace of displeasure to his heart. He wondered if she treated other people the same way. The thought bothered him, and he momentarily lost interest in her repayment. He preferred the difficult, stubborn girl t
Instead of answering, Crystal lowered her head and gave Nathan a soft kiss on the lips, and she spoke to him with her eyes, saying, I’m being gentle. Can you be gentle, too?Nathan kissed her back slowly, and as he did, she opened her robe for him. She had just gotten out of the shower, so she was naked, and her breasts were like cupcake tops with pink cherries on top.After a few minutes, Nathan pulled away, and he rolled Crystal over so that he was on top, and she was on the bottom. He placed his left hand on her right breast and then kissed her entire body. He started at her earlobe and worked his way down, but when he got to her neck, he was startled to discover the black leather collar she was wearing. He pulled away and gave Crystal a dirty look. “What the fuck is this?” he growled.Crystal b
(Warning: This chapter contains a sexual scene and violent words. If you're not comfortable reading it kindly skip it and move to another chapter)Nothing about Carlos or Skater’s comments made any impact on the direction of the conversation, and the next thing Emily Deerborn wrote was twice as cruel as what she had first written. She’d said, “Oh, God... Wake up, Carlos! Are you blind? You’re just taking her side because you still love her.”Carol Watson: “Hey, Skater. Was Crystal still a virgin when you dated her in high school?”Skater Deiter: “Oh, stop it. You guys are too much. You guys are going to scare her away from the get-together this weekend.”Jack Elfman: “If I were her, I wouldn’
Nathan gave Crystal his jacket, and she dutifully hung it up for him along with her own. Then, as they sat down at the table, he made the introductions. “Crystal,” he said, “These are my brothers, Owen Lane, Alex Jordan.”Crystal nodded and said, “It’s nice to meet you.”Then Nathan put his arm around Crystal and glared at his brothers. “Crystal is my woman,” he said seriously. “So, no funny stuff, you hear me?”The other two nodded, and Owen said, “Of course. That goes without saying.”Alex: “We would never take anything thatbelonged to you.”Owen: “Yeah! Everybody knows to stay out o
Owen happened to look in Eric’s direction, and he saw that the other man was seething. His face had turned red, and the veins in his neck were bulging out. He was clenching and unclenching his fists, and he was glaring daggers in Nathan’s direction. Owen turned to Nathan and was not surprised to see his trademark self-satisfied smirk. Oh, fuck - thought Owen - If I don’t do something quickly, we’re going to have World War Three here!Owen clapped his hands together five times to get everyone’s attention, and once he had it, he said, “We are all excited about having Arnold back with us, but you must all be as hungry as I am, so let’s settle down and get the waiter in here so that we can order!”.“An excellent idea!” Alex said. He sat down first, and everyone else sat around him, assuming the seats
Crystal looked at Mrs. Bush in a trance.“Amos Davis is…”Eric stood up and pressed the wound with a swab of alcohol.“Is Amos Davis Nathan’s father?” Crystal asked again.“Yes.” Eric looked down at her. “Are you surprised?”“So you and Nathan...”“You have a good imagination. We are not related.”“What about the child?”“Isn’t it obvious? The child’s death was the main cause of her nervous breakdown.” Eric held out his injured hand and said, “Honey, aren’t yo
At night, Crystal woke up sweating from her nightmare.The servant somehow slipped down on the carpet and fell asleep by the door.Crystal opened her eyes in tears. It was dark and still. She looked down at the overlapping lights, her heart aching as if she had been sliced open by razor blades.She tiptoed out of bed and picked up the phone from the bedside table.She walked barefoot into the bathroom, sat on the toilet, and stared at the black screen for a while.A week before, she had lost control of herself and seemed to have unconsciously dialed the number she had branded at her fingertips.But there came a female voice without feeling:
Eric looked at Crystal in shock.“You can rest assured that these small cuts will not affect the child’s physical health. And it won’t affect your revenge on Nathan!” Crystal said happily, her jaw suddenly strangled.Eric clutched her jaw tightly. “I thought you were a strong woman, but you’re just so vulnerable.”“That’s right. I’m vulnerable. Didn’t you know that?”That was why Eric asked the servant to put the blades away.Just now, it was also the servant who heard that Crystal was looking for the blade, so she rushed to find Eric immediately.Looking at the sweat on his forehead, the way he was out of bre
Inside the villa, doctors came in and out. Luckily, Eric sent Crystal into his car, and he gave her warm measures in time and kept her cold feet warm.“Miss Smith and the baby are fine. But Miss Smith was cold and somewhat weak. As for her feet, it’s taboo to touch cold water in this weather,” replied the doctor. “You’d better help her now, help her to activate her blood lest she might fall off rheumatism when she is older.Eric had Crystal’s feet rubbed by himself with the best essential oil.Crystal fell asleep in a daze. Her tears never stopped, as though she had dreamt of something sad.Her dry lips moved, calling someone’s name.Eric got close enough to hear her.
Crystal seemed to see Nathan staring at her with an angry face in her bewilderment.Her heart was beating wildly across her chest. She broke down and wanted to reach out and let him take her away.Suddenly, she didn’t want to take care of anything. She was not as strong as she thought.She just wanted a man who loved her, and she loved. She wanted to be cared for, have a child, and live a simple life. But the next second, the figure turned into Eric.He held down the handrail of the wooden bridge and jumped into the lake.Splash! Splash!Several bodyguards also jumped down one after another.Eric quickly walked over to her, took
Vic came in from the outside and was quite surprised to see this scene.He had expected Nathan’s return to make up with Crystal.Crystal was thrown into the bathroom, and her body crashed against the cold porcelain wall.Nathan hadn’t given up yet, even though she had made it so clearly.He picked up a birdbath and jabbed it into her hand. “Pee.”Crystal held the basin. “Do you want to check, and then you give up and let me go?”“Now!”He tugged at her trousers.Crystal went out today wearing suspenders, and Nathan took off her coat and stripp
Crystal pulled away from his hand hard and turned to leave.He instantly retrieved her body, and she hit him hard on the chest.Nathan held her tightly, his last icy line collapsed.“Don’t go. Don’t leave me.” He said.This man, who had just been proud and arrogant, was momentarily weak again.Crystal was not feeling any better, and her heart was trembling.“I miss you so much. I’ve been thinking about you, Crystal, every minute of the day. My life was dull and sad. I function every day, but I’m dying inside,” His voice, with the hot air, blew in her ear.Crystal felt as
A man was sitting with his legs crossing on the dark blue leather sofa, silent and noble in the living room.Crystal stood at the door, only by seeing him at a glance did she want to run away. However, her feet were like a tree with deep roots, so steady and heavy that she could not move it a little.Every night, the man she saw in her dream was now sitting in front of her. The man put out the cigarette and said casually, “Miss Smith, here you are.”The voice was like thunder, which immediately woke Crystal up.She jerked around to leave…“Miss Smith, don’t you want your watch back?” Nathan’s cold voice sounded again.It’s him!
“More than 20 years?” Nancy didn’t understand. “That is to say, I’ve been waiting to meet you since I was born,” he gave Nancy a charming smile, “You’re in a cold sweat, am I so horrible?” Nancy shook her head, “No...” “I don’t want to be someone you’re afraid of,” he kissed on the back of Nancy’s hand, “I just want to be a big tree, to provide shade and shelter for you.” Nancy lowered her head in a panic, dared not look at him. That’s so unreal, and such dreamlike happiness would catch everyone unprepared, especially someone a boy crazy like Nancy. Marcos was like a noble prince; no woman could resist his charm and tenderness.
