SOMEWHERE IN STATEN LAND“You MotherF**ker, I knew it was you from the very beginning…” Bryan Cooper spat as he picked up the cutter and then cut his cigar skillfully.“I can’t believe a father could be that cruel…” Leon spoke with sarcasm as he leaned comfortably on the sofa.“Son?” Bryan Cooper took a puff from his cigar and exhaled the smoke, his face turning gloomy at the mention of Henry, “I had only one son, David… He was long gone, and this one, Huh… He was just a proxy, a pawn in the Cooper family.”“So then why now you are eager to kill the pawn?” Leon raised his brow, looking at him in curiosity.“Phuff…” The old man took another long puff and then fixed his eyes at Leon, “That woman… What was her name my son got obsessed with?”He was trying to remember the name when Leon offered, “Emma, Emma Bailey…”“Yes, that stupid teacher… Does she have any class to be a part of the Cooper family… Huh, she betrayed my son, tried to plot against him, put him to death, and that fool…Idi
THE WEDDING DAY :The morning bliss was beautiful but for Emma, it was giving her a cold chill, she knew what is going to happen today, and she has not got her hands on the evidence yet.The drive which contained Henry’s criminal record.Emma was all alone in her room when she woke up, Henry must have been busy with the preparations for the wedding, still, Emma has no idea what kind of guests are going to attend their wedding, but she knew that those people are not ordinary at all.The way the whole villa is guarded Emma knows that those people’s protection is more precious than anything else.And also, if Leon has chosen this day to attack, he must have chosen it for a reason, he won’t just capture Henry but all the big fishes of the ocean.With a bitter frown, Emma got up from her bed, she was worried for Jacob, she had no idea if Henry had released him yet or not.Nor does she has the guts to spoil his mood by asking about Jacob.After her breakfast, multiple maids entered Emma’s r
“Emma.”A loud roar made Emma jump away from Jacob, she turned to look at the door where Henry was standing with a livid face, his appearance gloomy and darker than the suit he was wearing.“You…” Henry marched towards Jacob with a face of ashen, his gun loaded and he pointed it at Jacob.BANGJust as he shot the fire, Emma lunged forward, making him lose his balance and the shot missed.The next moment, Jacob pounced on him and kicked the gun away from him.Henry and Jacob fought like wild animals with bare hands, Emma knew Jacob was weak, and Henry would get his victory very soon, afraid of Henry’s win.She picked up a side lamp and crushed it on Henry’s head from behind.BAMIn an instant, Henry’s grip loosened and he fell lifelessly on the ground.BOOM“Let’s go, Jacob.”Emma offered him her hand, he took it, and in an instant, they both rushed out of the study.Outside it was chaotic, the maids were running downstairs to escape, and there were sounds of gunshots and painful cries
“Did he hurt you, Miss Bailey?” A nurse inspecting Emma asked.Emma pulled the torn sleeves up and showed the cut which was given to her by Henry. It was not very deep but it will surely leave a scar on her skin, all this while she didn’t know that Henry had planned too much for her.A locator inside her body without even her knowing about it.Immediately the nurse started to clean the wound and then went for stitches to close it.“How’s she doing?” Leon appeared and Emma’s eyes opened wide, “Jacob? How is he?”“He’s safe and alive,” Leon assured him.“I am truly astounded by your capability, Miss Bailey. During the chaos, you used your brain right to steal my gun and my phone.If it wasn’t for your wise doing, we would have lost Henry again.” He sighed in disappointment. “I never knew he would try to kill you, but anything is possible, after all, he was a murderer.”Leon spoke with a stiff face, no one has ever shown sympathy for the death of a criminal, especially when he has killed
“My Little Vixen,I made an oath to not hurt you, but I broke it today by hurting you again.My fury took away my senses and I don’t have the courage to face you and apologize to you.Hence, I decided to write my emotions for you today.Did you remember, you once asked for a home?I had been trying to find a home for you, for our child, our family, and finally, I found one.I kept a small surprise there for you. I hope you will like it.Since my childhood, I was taught to force things on people, to claim my right to power.But, I never knew that love could never be conquered by force and power.It could be conquered with love only.Love needs patience, and sacrifices, while I am not aware of these two words in my life which belonged to the dark world.I don’t regret a single day of my life with you, although I know in each of those days you planned to kill me, end my life, and run away from me.I don’t blame you, Emma.As I said, I was never taught how to love, I hope you will be able
EPILOGUE :SPAINTwo Weeks LaterTIN … TINThe bell chimed, as the door opened indicating the presence of new customers.As soon as the couple entered, their nostrils filled with the strong scents of lilies, Lavender, and many more floral scents mixed with the smell of wet mud.The old man digging out the sand and making a small pot announced without even looking in that direction.“We’re off... I’m afraid you won’t be getting anything now except for the flowers.” The old man spoke as he prepared the pot and then stood with it in his hand.He turned to face the couple and the pot dropped from his hand in an instant from shock.BOOM“What is that noise, Frederic?” An old woman walked out from the small villa wearing an apron, she looked at the back of her husband, he seemed to be frozen looking at something.She took curious steps towards him and then exclaimed in shock, “Emma…”BOOM“Mom, Dad…” Emma called out in a hoarse voice and lunged forward to give her mother a hug, her mother w
The blanket of stars stretched into infinity in the sky when Emma saw the sign of BROOKLYN at the corner of the road pointing at her destination.A small smile crept over her lips, she double-checked her phone just to see her upcoming task.The birthday of her Fiance Jacob was coming.Emma met Jacob, three years ago, at a conference in her college. The day their eyes met, something magical happened. They had a great talk after that and once they started talking, it didn’t end. Meeting after meeting, and soon they fell in love.Some days before, Jacob proposed to her and Emma happily agreed. Tonight, Emma was going to make it special for Jacob by giving him a surprise visit.She glanced into the review mirror to check if she had smeared her makeup in any way during her drive from Manhattan to here, but thankfully she didn’t.She was wearing a short black sequin, sleeveless dress, which hugged her body perfectly, her jade skin looked more vibrant under the dark color. For the first time
“You take her first, boss?” Peter carefully asked his boss, Henry.“I have no interest, and you should also hurry. We don’t have the whole night.” Henry got off of Emma and warned his partner.He knew very well that lust won’t take a man anywhere except for destroying him.“Yes, boss.” Peter answered excitedly and pulled Emma up at once.“Ah.” Emma frowned as her legs straightened, her heels were painful.Noticing her discomfort, Peter enthusiastically knelt like a gentleman and took off her heels, not to help her but just to touch her inappropriately.Emma gasped when his fingers brushed her s*x over the fabric. The sweat of dread started to form over her forehead, with the realization that she had trapped herself in a very huge mess.“Just getting you ready, beauty.” Peter smirked shamelessly as he withdrew his fingers. Though Emma felt disgusting and humiliation, she controlled her expression."Cou...could we be in the car?" Her voice was so soft that Peter was more turned on. But
