His Dangerous Obsession 41
Quinn's p o v Rachel didn't dare to look up at me but I could see her face stiffen. I pull away from her. "It would be a shame if I meet him here again ..." I am walking towards Lucia who is standing frozen. "Meet him here again? Of course not, El jefe." Rachel chuckles from behind me. "He's going to get sacked right away." I give her a satisfied smile and grab Lucia's cold hand in mine before leading her out of the section. "See you soonest my dear Lucia!" Rachel sang out from behind us and I heard Lucia give out a hushed reply. The sun was already getting down when we got back in the car and started back home. I rested my back on the seat and closed my eyes. "If there's something you're dying to say ... Just say it." I whispered with my eyes still closed and Lucia's grunted breath beside me comes to a pause. "Was it really necessary to have that guy fired?" I actually thought it was the clothes that she wanted to make a complain about. "You think it wasn't?" I asked with

Quinn's p o v While I gazed at her in amusement, her eyes were only on the table.I tried to surpress my laughter. "Are you serious.""I can play in your stead can't I?" As she asked that, she was facing the men instead of me. What gave her the sudden audacity to seek permission from someone else other than me?"Sure!" One of the men responded with his teeth bared. He was clearly happy he was about to win more money."Very well!" Benny stepped in. "Let my sweetheart join in the table and show us what she has got." The others cheered in agreement and I frowned. Of course he would agree to this. It was more to his advantage here if she lost.After all, she was a woman, and in their minds, that automatically meant she couldn't possibly know what she was doing.I watched keenly as Lucia threw her cash to the table and Benny count, before forwarding her chips to the table. I drew back anticipating her loss.I knew this was only going to get worse. These men were prone cheats and trickste

Quinn's p o v The sound of gunshots echoed through the casino, causing the place to convert to land of panic. I could hear the footsteps of people running in every direction, knocking over chairs and tables in their haste to escape from the straying bullets. Screams intensified at every instance which they were met with shots to their heads. I pulled down my hand which had been acting as a shield over my head and planted it to the floor for support bring my palm down to the piercing of the shattered glass on the floor. The pain hit my nerves in a wave but I did not have the attention to pay to it right now. I could hear Lucia's shivering breath beneath him. I knew she was scared, and it got me dazed. I pull her up, and leave the both of us bent on our knees as I raised my head over the shielding table to see the men with guns skittering and shooting around the place against Benny's guards. As soon as they backed us, I dashed across the floor in order to reach for the bar. But

Quinn's p o v As their voices echoed, from the floor, I started firing shots down at the guys and their groans and shoot back filled the air.These ones were quick to sight me despite the wall and they took instant covers as they came up the stairs shooting so that I hardly had the chance to shoot back."The fuckers!" I groaned, only to hear Lucia's voice. "Someone's here!" She called and I turned to my side only to see one of them coming through the end of the corridor. Immediately I threw a shot."Lucia, get down!" I commanded and she held her ears as she slid down the wall so that I continued shooting the man until he was down.But as I turned back, the ones climbing up were already at the banister, heading for the corridor where we were.I held Lucia to my side holding her head tightly against my chest and shifting her slightly to my side so that I'm covering her while I shoot at the men climbing up. While doing so, I begin to retreat towards the arch.They were now fully in vi

Jane's p o v My eyes fluttered open, to Emily's footsteps. I turned my head to the side to see her pulling the windows open before she walked back out through the door.I close my eyes back and shake my head, my mind still foggy from the intense dream I had just experienced. As I regained my bearings, I sat up slowly, rubbing my eyes. Somehow, I could still hear the sounds of the gunshot. It rippled once in my ear and I shook my head to repel it off.With those sounds and images so vivid in my mind, I was now beginning to wonder if it had really been just a dream or I had been a part of the experience.Feeling slightly disoriented, I pull the scattered tendrils of my rough hair out of my face and swung my legs over the side of the bed till my feet sink into the soft carpet. My face comes in line with the sun and I block it off with my hand before turning my head to the side only to see a man sitting by the reading table.I paused as my eyes narrowed but still fixated on the man wh

Jane's p o v My eyes widened as I stepped into Dliz beauty spa, taking in the luxurious surroundings. With tall brown walls, crystal chandeliers, and plush furnishings that screamed wealth and exclusivity, I couldn't help but take my steps carefully along the marble floors.When Emily had called Anika last night informing her of my intention to book a treatment with her, I could hear the disbelief in her tone when she spoke to me directly.I knew she didn't like me and even after our heated conversation the last time, it was going to take a lot to get along with her but I was Lucia Gael; she could not reject an offer to visit her spa. It was like a free commercial and upgrade for her brand. She had made it seem so and I was becoming aware of my worth now."Sure, Lucia." She had said followed by a pretentious chuckle of excitement. "Anytime you chose will be created for you."I bet she was amongst people at that time which is the reason she had to answer so nicely.I felt a sense of a

Diego's p o v I finished signing the papers and arranges them all into a neat file. Leaving them on the table, I got up to take a stroll to the wall to the end of the room. The glass wall of my bedroom was the spot I had become habitual of standing and watching from. From my home that was situated up on the cliff, I always got a celestial view of the city and mountains beneath me like some governor. It always provided a sense of calm especially while I was sipping my coffee. I closed my eyes and my phone call with my brother from last night played in my head again. "I need you at the villa, Diego. Are you free?" Quinn had asked. "Not quite." I had mumbled knowing fully well that busy or not I would have to be there. I always wanted to be there despite how much I didn't want to. "Well you better get your ass down here tomorrow. That is if you can't make it tonight." "What is this about, this time?" "Benny is dead." "What?" My brows had narrowed in disbelief. "Two nights ag

Jane's p o v "Relax, it's just me." He said and laid a hand on the arm of the lounge chair for support as he resumed his stroll. Diego was innocently breathtaking; his hair seems to be slightly wet and dried at the same time forming a little rough gathering over his forehead. His chest still had trickles of water and I noticed a blue plastic band that was tight around his wrist as he held the bottle over his lower abdomen. It only added to his awesomeness.I lifted my gaze to meet his. "You could really pass for a ghost, Mr. Diego."I am not sure he knew why I said that but he chuckled and reached the seat, placing the bottle on the table."I never know when you come in or leave the villa. I just see you bursting in." I told him."I really had not planned to be here today. I have been quite occupied with work, that's why I am just ... you know flying around." He places a hand on his waist. "I haven't answered your question, have I?" He inhales and my eyes are even following his brea

Jane's p o v Jane's p o v I felt tense the moment I raised my head up from the table. I still had my eyes closed when I rose from the chair and turned around like a sleep walker, staggering through the space until I felt myself landing face down on the bed.I turned from one degree to another until I felt what was a little comfort. Gush. The temperature was just perfect all of a sudden. It must be passed noon already.I remember Quinn and I had been playing the game. Stupid decision I ever made was getting him to play such a game with me. And things had gotten a bit too intimate with the questions that he made me answer that one last question before we could go back to studying about Rodrig but he never looked at me the same way and I didn't feel comfortable after. It was as if he was continuously teasing me about my faked orgasms.Speaking of intimacy... I felt a little perching sensation down my legs now and I smirked with my eyes shut.But he had said the truth. My sex life was

Chapter 59 Quinn's p o v "What?" She asked with a sharp gaze. "Come on tell me." I could smell her eagerness.Did I really find any fun in playing this with her? It felt too childish for me. At least initial but then again, it was nice to see that she had fun with this. And I was sure even Lucia Gael never had the knack to pay such ridiculous games.I took this book from her a long while ago saying one of Rodrig's faithfuls had decided to write the events for hom but he had not been impressed and discarded it so it just lay there in his library. Lucia Gael knew I liked to read so she had gave me inside the box and said "knock yourself out with that crap."And I never opened it until just this week when I thought of giving it to Lucia."Well ... The first person I ever fell in love with." I rest my back casually and take a memory dive back to my past. "I was fourteen... And I was in this boarding school for boys. A Catholic school precisely so ... My dorm was pretty much the one with

Chapter 58 Jane's p o v "Are you listening to me?" Quinn asked and I jerked off from my thoughts, looking at him from the other end of the reading table. Unfortunately, I had been thinking about that day with Diego. I didn't just wrong him but I hurt him. I had tried to use him and he found out. I shut my eyes and brushed my hair back. And the fact that he had ended that conversation with. "And no. I didn't tell Quinn about it." before walking out of the room out me in more regret and shame. I sighed and nodded to Quinn with my ponytail jumping behind my head. " "As I was saying. At that time, Rodrig had ascended to ultimate power when he established his dominance in the family. After that, he continued to expand his arms and build outposts. Papa was actually his first assignee holding power in second to him. His beta in rank." "I guess papa was that close to Rodrig. That sort of thing." He shrugs and stretches his hand into the pen case and pulls out a pencil before leaning
His Dangerous Obsession 57
Jane's p o v I stiffened and slowly waited watching his eyes as they began to lower slowly back to the phone. He sighed before leaning back. He had seen it hadn't he? I close my eyes and throw my face slowly to the side."You're not giving me an answer, Lucia." The roughness of his voice sends a tickle across my skin and I open my eyes at once but I still don't look up at him."Why did you send that message to him?""It's nothing. Just a greeting.""Don't lie to me.""He walked up to me at the party and seemed to have been acquainted to Lucia or something. He really wanted to have a talk to me so he handed me his address and I just messaged him." I shrugged."You just sent it to him as a form of greeting!""Yes! Obviously!""And that's why you deleted it."My lips went apart instantly but no sound could come out.I only watch as Diego makes for a stand and he sighs grumpily. "Yesterday morning, I was just going by my day when I suddenly saw this sinister message popping up but more

Jane's p o v "A book about Rodrig?" I asked barely holding back my chuckle as I gaped at the plastic box he just placed on the table between us. And through the transparent walls of the box, I could see the layers of white paper sheets. "Just like you can see. If you are going to be meeting with him, you gotta refresh your memory of whom your grandfather is. You don't wanna be chewing your mouth in front of him, would you?""I think you meant, learning of whom Rodrig is!" I stretched my hand towards the box perfectly aware that whenever I corrected him about this kind of reference that he made towards me, he got pissed."It just contains brief reports about him. His business and wealth, extensions and bla bla bla. It's not as if he is going to be interviewing you or something. Just so ...""So you guys actually published a book about this man?" I ask in disbelief as I handled the spiral bound pieces of sheets that had turned to a heavy book.Just yesterday he had thrown the bomb at
His Dangerous Obsession 55
Jane's p o v My heart was beginning to pound behind my ribs as Diego made a 180 degree turn and had his back to me as he begins to leave."What is it about?" I ask making sure my curiosity is well -hidden."Huh?" He asked throwing his face to me."Your email. You sounded pretty urgent.""Oh it's something about work." He chuckles. "I get them almost every day." "Oh." I watch him as he walks out and I slid down the wall with my hand on my chest. I panted lightly and regretted ever making such a stupid decision in the first place. Now it's been three days since I sent it and I am certain Mr Martinez still had not replied my mail. Perhaps he thought it was a scammer or cloner. He didn't believe Lucia Gael would be using another person's email account to send him sigh a message.Anyways, I was now praying he never replied it unless I was going to be there and I was unsure how possible that would be now.I had returned to combing my hair and I could not help but perceive the new smell
His Dangerous Obsession 54
Jane's p o v Before walking down that staircase, I had sat in front of my dresser looking into the mirror as I tried combing my hair.After the incident in the bathroom, I had spent my night deeply perturbed and uncertain of what to feel.I may end up finding it difficult to cope with his temper tantrums. Infact I already was.But after I had slapped him- something I never thought I would dare to do, I felt a kind of satisfaction but he had acted strangely. Not entirely strange for the way he behaved but it wasn't like what I had expected. I knew he would not hit me back but I also was not expecting what he did next. Or didn't do?I thought I had crossed my limit but somehow he became calm or maybe the hit was what made him calm.I withhold my laughter and concentrate on my hair. That is when I realized that my effort to comb through my dense curls was non progressive.I had a very coarse hair that reacted badly to washing becoming extremely hard except air dried and creamed properl
His Dangerous Obsession 53
Quinn's p o v No woman has ever slapped me before. And as I stood before this attic mirror drenched to my feet, all I could think of was that moment that she dared to raise her hand on me. At that moment I had no choice but to understand the depth of her exasperation. And the only way she could think of purging it was to hit me. I could still see her, the detested frown that had taken over her face as she raised her hand. She dared ... to fight me to the point of hitting me. I could never forget that scene. Because it was simply impressive, thrilling. It was breathtaking! I place a hand on my cheek where she had slapped and I turned to stare at it in the mirror again as I have been doing. It was as if I could still feel it. The one hundred per cent effort she had put into it yet caused zero damage. I smiled. It was a hard slap yet it felt so soft coming from someone as timid as her. The moment, she had cursed and unleashed her rage in form of that slap, I felt a kind of exci
His Dangerous Obsession 52
Jane's p o v The moment, he drops me back to my feet, I feel the stinging coldness of the floor then I feel the liquid washer as it drops on my hair and he spins the bottle across my chest, deliberately pouring the shampoo over my neck.I wanted to continue with the protest not until I felt the shower pouring down on us to cover my sight.As I close my eyes, and try to capture my breath under the rushing water, I feel his hand as it passes through my hair, his body pressing against mine and pushing me until, I felt my back on the glass wall.I throw my head to the side and hold his arm, pushing it as far back as possible to avoid his touch but he is all slippery due to the shampoo and I loose my grip on this thick forearm.There's no serious foam on my hair so it meant he hadn't added enough shampoo. But my clothe was almost completely wet from the water and I finally catch my breath."Let me ... go!""Shhhhh ....""Let me go, Quinn!!" I manage to say and I don't say it with a pleadi
