Her Pov:Very slowly, he turns his face towards me. I felt shivers go down my whole body. No no no fuck fuck this can't be. There were other men fully armed and in the room dressed in all black, like the person who got out of the room, leaving the door open. Seeing me, they tried to come forward with their weapons in their hands when Edward gestured them to not move with his free hand. He threw the axe on the floor and very slowly took a step towards me. I froze on my spot. I needed to run, but the shock and fear got the best of me. He took another step. And an alarming bell started to ring in full volume in my mind. Lia run... Run before he gets you. Another step, and I was dragged back into reality. I saw him killing a man. He will fucking kill me as well. He is a monster. Run Lia run...And with that, I took a step back and all but started to run up the stairs .. I could hear footsteps behind me. He is following me but not chasing me as if he couldn't care less. His footsteps w
Her Pov:Should I make a run for it? I looked away from the entrance and looked at Edward to make sure he was busy in his talk for me to get enough time to run away. But as soon as my eyes fell on him, I found him already looking at me while he was still listening to that black dressed man. And very slowly, he shook his head, warning me not to do anything stupid . My god, he could already tell what I was thinking. Am I that predictable. I felt another cold shiver run down my spine. He is scary intimidating, and he got that aura around him. Even when he's just looking at him, I could feel my heartbeat raising as if his eyes are piercing my body. Not able to look at him anymore, I moved my eyes again to the entrance. No, I should not make a run for the entrance at this moment. Now that I am thinking it over, it would be stupid of me to try to run away through the entrance. I saw it myself how many armed guards were around the main gate. What if any of them fired at me. No, I will wa
HER POV:When I woke up, Edward wasn't in bed. I got up and looked around. I wonder where he is. I need to leave from here soon. I can't stay with a killer any moment longer. But for now, I had to freshen up. I needed energy to fight him or even run away from here. I went to the bathroom and gasped in shock. Edward was standing in front of the basin mirror . A towel was hanging lowly on his waist. His eight pack abs were on show. His whole body was wet and water dripping from his chest. It is the first time I have seen him shirtless. He is looking as majestic as ever. I could feel my heartbeat rising with a dangerous speed. Water dripping from his wet hair to his nose to his lips and to his jaw. Oh god, what am I thinking. My roaming eyes moved to his face, and his striking grey eyes were on me. Oh God, I can't breathe. " Good morning, printsessa." He wished me in a husky deep voice. He has a little smirk on his face as if he knows what effect his shirtless image is having on me
Her Pov: What if it's the car of Edward!! But I can't just stay here. I have to take the chance. Cause he will soon catch up to me. I am not that far from his reach. So hesitantly, I waved my hand to catch the attention of the driver. And the car slowed down by me. Thankfully, the driver was an old woman. "Are you okay, sweetheart?" She asked me kindly. " Um, can you please give me a ride to the nearest police station? I need to file a complaint." I replied. She hesitated a bit before agreeing, and I got into her car. Oh god!! I am free. I am not with that psycho murderer. Thinking of him, I felt pain in my heart.. Why it hurts to think about him. I .. I I can't think of him like that. I will file a complaint against him. He deserves it. He killed a person! Why do I even need to remind it to myself. I was lost in my thoughts so much that I didn't realise the woman pulled over in front of a police station. "We have reached to the station. Do you need me to wait for you, d
3rd Person Pov:He slams the door behind him. He never looses his cool but with lia he lost it. He couldn't bear that his lia didn't love him. It's not that he didn't know that Lia doesn't really love him but still at office whenever he got close to her he knew he intimidated her. He loved that effect he had on her. He loved her having goosebumps on her body while he touches. He knew she didn't love him but he knew he would make her love him. No matter what she will accept him and love him and only him. Cause only he is her destiny and not even god can change it.So when Lia voiced that she hated him he lost his cool. He is a very patient calm and calculative man. The business he is in demands him to be cold and calculative . He was trained for this from his very childhood and no one had the ability to change that. Except her. The man who never flinched after killing a man with bare hands never shed a tear for any pain felt hurt when she said she hated him. She could hurt him. She
Her Pov: Edward looked at the man behind me with a bored expression on his face. "You don't get to say that." " Oh yeah? So why don't you introduce me to your girlfriend?" The man behind me walked towards the table beside me. Edward stood up and walked to the guy. " Lia.. Lia brown. Soon to be Knight." The guy looked at me with a shocked expression. As Edward was introducing me I felt the need to stand up and give my hand for a hand shake but Edward grabbed my hand and took it in his hand and placed a soft kiss on the back of my palm. " The owner doesn't need intro printsessa!" My house??? It's more like the house I am kidnapped in! His voice sounded so deep, so convincing. The guy looked at Edward before turning his face to me. " I am Alex, Alex Knight...Edward's brother. " I didn't know Edward had a brother as well. I only knew of his sister. I just nodded." What are you doing in here, Alex?" Edward spoke finally. " I am here for a while as I had something to discuss
Her pov:The loud ringing of my phone woke me up.. It must have been ringing for a long time for making a sleepyhead like me to wake up.I tried to search for it without opening my eyes.. Not finding it, I let out a sound of frustration and sit up, opening my eyes.The phone is ringing on the mat of my room.. I pick it up with a frown on my face only to find out an unknown number calling me.I picked up the phone and to my utter surprise it was the call from Amigos Taquerias, the famous company I gave an interview at ...I got the freaking job.Though it's a job for the post of thee assistant of the boss it's a big deal for me cause I don't have any special degree. Specially for a famous company like this.. If not this, I don't know what could be a better start of the first day of the year than this.I guess 2024 is my year. I thanked the women on the phone and all but ran to the other room.. The door was already open.Ella was seeing something on her phone."El, guess what?" "What ha
Her Pov:The next 2 days went by smoothly. Sir didn't come to the office and my embarrassment lessened.I joined the job on Wednesday. Today is Saturday. So, tomorrow is eventually my day off. I started my day happily. I had breakfast with Ella. And we both planned to have some fun and go to places on our day off.I got ready for the work after that. I wore a tight skirt that reached just above my knees and a white top with white sneakers. I couldn't go on with the heels anymore. I kept my long, wavy hair open and wore just mascara and a lip tint and rushed off to the work. To my surprise, Gabrielle wasn't there. And to my utter surprise, I got a call in the teleline. So I took it and it was from sir . " Come in the room," he said and cut off the call. Wait, is he here!! I knocked at the door and asked if I could come in .. He permitted, so I got in and asked him what he had called me for. "Gabrielle took sick leave . She asked for 3 days using her holidays.. So you have to take o

Her pov:"What are you talking about, El?? Russian Mafia??" She just nods with a frustrated expression on her face. " But he has to be Russian for that, right? He doesn't have any accent when he speaks English.. You are not mistaking are you?" I ask her, hoping that she's wrong. " He's Russian Lia. He doesn't have any accent cause his mother was from the US, and his dad was Russian. " Ella says. "Wait, how do you know so much about him?" I asked. " I work in the club, right? I heard all these in there. Though they all could be rumours, he's dangerous for you, Lia. Also, he's a playboy. I heard that he slept with a lot of women, but he never got into a relationship. " Ella puts a hand on my shoulder. " I am concerned for you, lia. Don't get yourself in any trouble, okay?" I just nodded, holding her hand, assuring her that I won't get myself into trouble. Later, we had our dinner together, and I checked her fever again. Well, it seems like she's getting better. And we both go to o
Her Pov: I am taking this day off. After the kiss, I don't know how to encounter him again. It was my fucking first kiss. What if it was only causal to him? What if he doesn't feel anything about it? I didn't want to meet him so soon at work, so I took a sick leave, saying I had a fever. Ella asked me several times what happened, but I couldn't tell her. I didn't know myself. I was watching the TV, and the Titanic was on when they were kissing. I let out a frustrated sigh. I see myself and Edward in them. Just when I was about to change the channel, Edward called me. I saw it right after but took the call after a few rings. " Hey, how are u, Lia? How's your fever?" " I am getting better, sir. Don't worry please". It seems like he was taken aback for a second. " Do you need any type of medicine? " I denied it and assured him I had medicines. It was true I had the medicines at home, but just not the sickness or the fever! I spent the rest of New Year napping, sleeping, watch
Her Pov:The party, as it's official, was held in the daytime from 12 pm to 4 pm. I was sitting tensely at 11 am, being all stressed that I didn't have anything to wear. And there was a knock. I opened the door." Boss sent this for you."A guy handed me over a packet and left just right after.I opened the bag and a fucking royal wine toned gown cane out. No fucking way I am gonna wear this is way too much definition of way too much. I called Edward." Um, sir, I mean Edward, I can't wear this. it's too much for a cruise party. Something simple would do much better." " It doesn't matter if it is too much I guarantee you people will be more over the top than you. So just wear it". With that, he cut off the call." What's this crap! "I said in frustration. But I need this job so if wearing a dress saves it I am more than happy to do it.And within a while I put on the dress. And it's just perfect. It's so beautiful I have never worn something like this in my life. I have a very curvy
