She shrugged off her gaze from the file to the cell phone beside her on the desk. "10:5" she murmured and hurriedly grabbed her stuff, her boss has a 10:00 meeting as stated in his schedule.*How can she be this careless? she scolded herself and headed to Max's office. Considering how perfect and sharp he looks, however, it occurred she had screwed up on her first day of work.*Nevertheless, Maxwell was more than relaxed in his seat waiting for his secretary. His cold aura dominates the room. She couldn't help to shiver at his presence. Emma had thought of apologizing for her mistake but she swallowed up her words at the sight of his cold gaze. She held her head low, Maxwell smiled inwardly.*Wasn't she the one who winked at him a few hours ago without any fear? what happened now? "you are late" his voice was cold but it depicts a lot of meaning as if warning her. Jude who merely arrived peered at the uncomfortable Emma. *And flared his glar
Was he jealous? How on earth did this happen? can one melt a stone???*His gaze turned colder. He stared at him deadly, at that moment, there was nothing he wanted more than crushing his freaking head against the wall. He gently crossed his legs.*Max was a perfect gentleman. He knows when to kill and where to kill, even though that was what he wanted to do. He glared at Emma who was cheerfully rolling her eyes around the grand room, she seems to get a kick out of the environment.*David was seriously enjoying the free view of the beautiful woman contrary to him."I hope you know you're trespassing" he spoke lazily with an indifferent expression. Only his green eyes reveal the hidden emotion within him.*David didn't want to stare any trouble so he diverted his stare to Max, putting on a playful smile. He knew very well where power lies. And if he dares to offend Max then, not even the state President can rescue him.*Maxwell couldn't help b
"let me help with that" Ashley grabbed the dryer from her hand before she could even react.* It was evident her curiosity was driving her to unnecessary chores. Emma smiled inwardly, at least she didn't only trigger her interest but also got her to give her a hand. She sat still on the bed, enjoying the royal treatment. After all only the rich reject free meals.*"so tell me about that asshole who is planning to steal my bestie""Are you afraid?" she couldn't cage her laughter. Ashley surely hissed like a jealous boyfriend that if they happened to be in public others might misunderstand their friendship."Am jealous. Wait! are you planning on moving out and leaving me here all by myself?" Ashley stretched her neck from behind to catch a glimpse at Emma's reaction "Ohh give me a break Ashe!. Where is this silly idea coming from? It's not like all affections turned into true love" she scolded."Do you mean to say he doesn't love you? And he is into
He strolled to the couch with a wicked smile. You have lived more than I anticipated, King brother. It's time I take back what rightfully belongs to me. Alex thought to himself. *He believed the King's group was his to lead.*He crossed his legs comfortably on the luxurious couch. The red light in the room suddenly turned on giving it a romantic vibe, unmasking his manly handsome face. His long pointed nose gave his adorable face a bonus. His lovely golden eyes were like a swarm in a lake.His lips were very inviting.*He was a true definition of beauty probably because he was related to the godly Maxwell. Alex could be a leading star in a clawed as a result of his looks if only Maxwell happens to not appear.*After a while, three beautiful women stepped into the room wearing a transparent outfit that revealed their sensitive parts. Two sat beside Alex giving him a massage whilst the other dropped her ass on his lap, moving slowly and se
Emma raised her gaze and saw a figure at the door. She had put off the light earlier before settling by the computer to finish up her work. Not want to see the bad side of her CRUSH. The figure stood there staring at her as if she had something on her face. Emma shivered as anxiety roam on her pretty face. She wanted to stand on her feet but her leg cells seems dead."do I look that scary?" he said matching his muscular body to her side. Emma shivered more by the tone of his voice and how he was gazing at her. He sounded strict and annoying to her hearing.Why would he be asking such when he knows the excuse? isn't the answer striking?" Are you this desperate? or perhaps hardworking?" his manly voice rang in her ears but she didn't know why he would be throwing such harsh questions to her face. Who does he think he is? she thought to herself. She was still staring at the man's every move. He didn't look familiar to her in any way. And talking of it more, why would he s
Max stared coldly at the guard. He nodded and closed the door behind him. He glared at the bright screen of the phone with his usual expressionless face and cold reaction.*He didn't think too much about how Alex ended up with Emma's phone. He knew better than anyone but then why would he deliver it to his house? And he even did it personally.Maxwell couldn't control his emotion but felt jealous. He noticed his wristwatch and it was 11:14, almost morning.' do they know each other? how?. He quells himself inwardly. he lighted a cigar, he was burning in rage. He didn't know how he ended up in such emotions. His expression turned darker all of the sudden. He smoked till his heart contempt.*******************"what the heck!" Emma bumped into someone in the foyer. She bent to collect her stuff on the floor when her head collided with that of the unknown man. Cant the heavens save her this once? She was already late for work and now this man!." mm... sorry" she hear
Jonas smirked upon hearing Jake's voice and his rhetorical query.WHO said he had to answer? his sparkling eyes and smiles said it all. Jake was a lawyer, unlike Jonas and Maxwell who happened to be business killers. The three guys were childhood bodies. Jake was following his father's steps as the only son of the current chief justice. His father was the head of the state's judiciary and he was one of the best lawyers in the country.It seems Jonas was more than happy to see her again. He never thought it would be this easy and soon. Jonas held his glass in the air sipping from it occasionally with his eyes glued to Emma who was panicking inwardly." Max, can I borrow her for a moment" he requested but his glare was still on her." very pretty"Jonas murmured with a happy smile tagging along and sipped from his glass, her pale face seems cute to him and her cherry lips were more than fulfilling. 'She's got a memorable body and of course a tough attitude' he chuckled.
Her lousy phone smashed her from her thinking. She stared at her cell phone blankly at the Caller ID and a frown settled on her pretty face. Why was she calling? that was the first question that came to her mind. After hesitating for a while she answered the phone without saying a word."What happened to her? and why are you just telling me now? which hospital? send me the location and I will be there " she said in a concerned tone." okay I will send the money right now" she assured the person on the other side of the line. She sighed a relief after hugging up the call"mm, please drop me hear," she said politely to the driver. she stepped into the commercial bank and did the transfer. She thought deeply about it after all that was her first payment in King's group and now she was spending it on something out of her budget.She boarded a taxi and rushed to her old residence where she used to reside with her mom before life turned black for her. That same mansion was acc
Maxwell was holding her close to himself, his eyes bored into hers "are you okay?" there was fear in her voice. She feared he had been shot again. He smiled at her as if everything was okay.Another gunshot broke the silence, he shot a pin at the shooter. The same man who released the first bullet.He held his side stomach covering the bullet wound.Alex threw him a punch which landed him on the floor. He stood and blocked his next punch throwing him on the bed.Alex threw his leg which ended on his stomach, he quickly bounced In him hitting him like a punching bag. Maxwell was weak because Of the two bullets in his body. He was losing blood"please stop!!"Emma screamed at the top of her voice crying like a little girl.She continued pleading for Alex to stop, Maxwell was bleeding, and he is losing consciousness.I have to do something, I need to save him.No I can't let him kill him.Her sight fell on the gun beside the jerk that Maxwell killed with a pin. Without hesitation, she relea
"Did you find anything?" he asked Sampson who was behind the typing guy in a cold tone" we will find her" he assured him"boss, it seems they used multiple means of transport"the guy sitting behind the laptop said."so are you suggesting they took her out of the country?" the guy nodded.Yes, that is what he needed to know" where are you off to?"Sampson asked the angry Maxwell. He was sure if he doesn't do something this guy would not hesitate to burn the whole city" she needs me"there comes his cold voice.Sampson sighed, thanks to Emma he is now used to his other self and tired of his cold personality." where are you starting from?" he ask but he strode out of his sight not even bothering to look back.He knew Alex was playing games with him. He wants him to think he migrated with her but he already knows what he is trying to prove.He rode in his car heading to the southern side of the city. This is his first time driving without his men behind him.He knew where to find Alex after d
Mrs. King? where is that Mrs. King? She stared around to confirm what the lady said. But there was no one in the room except for herself and Maxwell and of course, the service lady who is now at the door. She was confused about what she meant by that. Did she refer to her?" I think there is a mistake here" she said but before anything else, Maxwell took the bag from the lady"thank you sir" she said with a dry smile before moving her heels. Emma raised her chin only to his heating gaze. He was standing spaceless behind her looking down at her"don't you like your new name"?" he asked calmly as if it was normal. Emma was still not getting what was going on "dress up" he gave her the bag and headed to his seat with a smile without any explanation.He instructed his men to take her home because he had meetings to attend. Emma stared at him as if she didn't want to leave his side" I will see you again" he said lovely and held her head against his chest. Did she want to ask him when? where?
He kicked the bathroom door open, Emma's hands were around his neck with her left breast pressed to his naked hard muscle chest. His face was all that she kept staring at until she heard the door unlocked.Her mouth was left open for flies to enter if there were any.Really!!!!She blinked like seriously!!oh God, the bathroom is times two of the bedroom!! the white walls seem clean and untouched as if nobody had settled there before. The bathtub was as big as a double bed, it can even contain three people who are as tall and broad as him.She swallowed hard to dry her mouth when she thought about how close their body is to each other.He walked her to the already filled tub and placed her gently in it as if she was a softshell or something. Her attention falls on the different types of gel and shampoo at the far edge of the tub. She wondered if her brand was in, she gazed at them searching for the right one to use. She suddenly covered her chest wi
She rolled on the huge bed with a wide gray blanket spread over her body. The light in the room rained on her beautiful face though it was not morning the brightness of the room said otherwise. She rolled her fragile body to the end of the bed with her eyes still closed. Her black long hair covered her face.She struggled for a while before she was able to open that eyes of hers and clear the sleep off her sight.She scanned the room, the white curtains, the white sofa, and the full-length glass window that displays a very beautiful view of the city were not in line with the familiar things in her mind records.She wondered what happened and how she ended up in such a place, just then last night images started loading up.She recalled drinking two glasses of wine which flamed a certain desire in her. She felt hot and her core started aching all of the sudden breaking cold sweat on her body. Joanna left her in a room after the party saying someone would attend to
" Why don't you ask me anything you want ?" he gave her ' the go-ahead look but Emma was hesitating as if afraid to say something.He wanted to disclose the secret before her but didn't want to be the one to provoke it. At least she should ask and he would answer with honor. Now his lips are on hers, she couldn't even resist him.The kiss began from passionate to deep kiss. He bit her lip which was undoubtful bleeding, she tried pulling away but he held her tightly by the waist "are you still running from me?" he asked in between kisses. His voice was hoarse, he is already turned on.She had done the magic. He pulled away and gazed at her wounded lips "that is your punishment for avoiding me" he said licking her bottom lips which had his biting on.His ringing phone distracted him. He pulled it from his pocket and held it against his ear, his left hand on her waist and his gaze on her, watching her every move.Emma was melting in his arms, her legs felt
She stared at his expressionless face. He gazed at her softly extending a hand for her to take it.She stepped out of the car ignoring his attention.That is the last thing she needed. She was doing everything to keep a space between them, after finding out he was married.She never bothered to ask or inquire about whoever she is since she could easily guess and get the answers.He stared at Sampson and lead the way to the Kings Mansion.His grandparent seeks his present to clarify something.Emma stared at Sampson with a beautiful smile and followed Maxwell.Great! it's dinner time and she has to join in. Her discomfort surfaced" no one is going to eat you alive"Maxwell's cold voice sounded in her ears."Welcome son" the old man tapped his shoulder and led them to the dinner where the family had gathered.He pulled a chair for Emma, she glared at him for a while before occupying it. All eyes were on them as if they were newlywed couples.She lowere
She uncomfortably tosses In the bed as if having a nightmare with a little sweat on her forehead as sharp breath escapes her lips constantly with her eyes close.She flipped her eyes open in horror. She sat on the bed with her eyes roaming the room, she placed her left hand on her chest and sighed a relief when she realized it is just a bad dream.But her heart was not settled. She started wondering if. Maxwell is alright. She laid back on the bed staring at the ceiling as if in deep thought, she blinked a few times. Sleep Is out of her reach.Who would sleep after a horrible nightmare? considering her nightmare she was not comfortable.She sit back on the bed and left to the washroom after a while.She was unsettled, remembering the pain she saw in his eyes when they were heading back to the private island, something was not going on well with him, and her heart was feeling his pain.He decided to take her with him since trouble seems to follow her all
The door was batched opened violently the moment he laid his filthy eyes on her breast with three men standing on guard with their heads held low.Jonas was caught off guard and attempted to use Emma as a hostage as he recognized those men but Maxwell walked in elegantly with an expressionless face in his all-black style as usual.He pointed his gun at him"boom" the bullet pierce through his arm, the hand that he was going to use to hold her. He winked in pain and moved back from her as blood oozed out.He strode toward her and covered her with the blanket and carried her out of the hotel room to his car. She stared at him feeling happy, her heart was beating very fast and she got afraid thinking he might hear. It has been a while since she saw this handsome face. She wanted to hug him tight but he is her boss.She couldn't stop staring at him for only god knows how much she has missed those lips, the way he force his lips on hers and how possessive he was with
