He has a wife, and even then he did all those things to me-

"Ex-wife," he clears.

Oh, thank fuck. Because I would never betray another woman like this.

If I were to bet, I'd go with she has not one clue what is going on. Her blonde curls are tied together in a bun, her green eyes puffy from all the crying.

"Montgomery go upstairs and choose a room for you. Cora, you come with me."

What does he want with her?

"I don't know anything about this place," I say looking between him and her.

"Are you guys on a run?"

He grits his jaw. "Go upstairs, and lock yourself in the first room you find."

Asshole.

"You can't just come in here like this?" She says looking at him.

"I don't need your permission for my own house," he grits.

"It's five in the morning."He folds his arms over his pecks, his triceps bulging from his T-shirt."Doesn't matter, you have a long day ahead of you."I have no idea what this prick has in mind for him. I just need to tell myself his loyalties lie with my enemy, which makes him my enemy. "Wear these shoes," he says passing me a worn-out box.

I have an EpiPen in my bag upstairs, but I don't think anyone wants to help me here. The guy who was looming over me just watching me struggle was snatched away within seconds. I felt a little relieved when I heard his voice. "Fuck."Killian's hands came around me, "fuck, what happened?""The EpiPen.. i-in my green bag," I somehow manage to say. Thank god he got the hint, "Wait right here, don't close your eyes." Cora stood there watching me, her expressions tough to unfold.

Who the hell calls at this hour? and why the hell is she in my bed? I picked up the phone without bothering to see who it was. "what?" "take the call outside," she says back to me. She seriously just asked me that, just because I slept with her I'm going to lay fucking roses everywhere she walks. "I talked to her father," my brother informs from the other line. This shit with him is getting out of my hand. "so?" I ask without bothering to say softly or move out of bed. She is sleeping in here, I can do whatever I want. "He told me he cares what her daughter thinks and that he will only for marriage if she says yes." "she saw you with me, she will never say yes," I say noticing Beryl stir and turn to me.

"are you fucking kidding me, right now." "You do not have one thing, one single thing in this house I would want--ever'" "she stole the keys to the front door, she must have swept it when she was cleaning my room. I'm guessing she was planning an escape." Killian's expressions are hard to read. "so did you check her room?" "check my room," I yelled emotions bubbling up my throat. He is a ruthless fucking monster, first, he humiliated me there, and now he is doing it again here. "I told you I didn't do shit." "If I'm somehow proved wrong, You can punish me. But first, let's check her stuff. " This is so absurd I want to fucking strangle someone. She couldn'

I try to think of all the excuses about why I am reacting like this. But how am I supposed to explain it? Haunting memories from almost half a decade ago still haunt me. Fucking years of therapy and I'm still broken. I yelped when he pushed me into him. His grip on my neck was almost bruising. we stayed like this for some time. "So fucking transparent yet so fucking far," he whispers. I took my time to collect myself and luckily he let me. I know he expects an explanation but - I won't. I can't. I felt his hard member resting along my belly. I hate that, I'm not at all repulsed by his dick it's the quite opposite. I regained control and tried to push him off of me. "Let me go."

    Chapter - 16 Rich girl in a yellow dress ______________ The next day I went back to living like a cheap maid. Hades spent the night with me, me wrapped in his arms to be specific. "You should go back to your old room," he said before leaving. I nodded pressing my lips. He doesn't know about the laptop- he doesn't know I'm in touch with my men behind his back. I need to keep it that way. The moment he left, I emailed Adam one last time asking him to send me updates on Rori's health and about my lawyers. Hades is -- he is good but he is not my truth. We are willing in a fantasy and I have a feeling more than just an illusion will break when this is done. I looked around the hallway, to see if Cora was anywhere in sight. Before I go back, I need to know what is she up to. Last time when I was in her room I didn't find a lot of things except for - some money.

Asking him to just let me sleep is fruitless, he does what he does. I opened the door and stepped out only to find myself standing on the footpath of a very busy street. I turned around to look at him, "where are we?" He doesn't answer my question just gets out of the car and holds out his hand for me. "I'm not holding hands with you," I said walking past him. The same hands were on Cora tonight. I don't want him anymore she can have him. He grips my hands halting my steps, I was ready to yank my hand free from his when he closed the distance between us. "try defying me again, and I will fuck you right here for everyone to see." I opened my mouth to tell him to shove it somewhere but decided against it. He does not deserve my anger, he doesn't deserve anything. I gave him the fakest sm

I look around astonished to find her buying all these expensive things. Whoever this girl is, she is not my friend. My Rori never believed in materialistic things - she believed in things like soul and meaning in life. This usually used to be my section. She's playing the field like a pro though. "Not for me, apparently Jeramy has a lot of cousins and sisters. I want to get gifts for all of them." Family, his family. She's buying gifts for him.

I don't know why but being in a room with him now makes me angry. "There is nothing to talk about. You did the right thing walking away from all this," he says so calmly like he didn't just something so mean. I have worked for years in this company. My blood and sweat everything is this. "I'm not walking away from shit. I want my job back, I want my company back," I scream blaming my hands down his table. For the first time since I met him. I've seen him shocked, he didn't expect me to lash out like this. "Mind your language young lady." He holds my gaze for what feels like hours - but can do whatever he wants. I'm not walking out of his office until I get what I want. He gestures for me to take a seat. "Sit down." I took the seat keeping my anger in check. "Who was it?

    Chapter - 22 Biased, bruised, and a bad parent. __________ As I sit on the spring bed staring out from the window of this hotel, I wonder what happened to me. I fell into his trap knowing he would stab me in the back the first chance he'd get. Just like he did. I- well, thinking. It is all I can do now, now when I'm so down that the cold floor beneath my feet feels soft. The scar on my stomach will always, in some way or another, tie me to him. It's a constant reminder, a tangible inscription etched onto my flesh. I chuckled darkly, the sound devoid of humor. How quickly shock morphed into a thrill, a twisted sense of pride witnessing his ruthless takeover. But that thrill, like the memory itself, is slowly fading, leaving behind only a bitter aftertaste and the ever-present mark of his presence. Fuck, I lost my virginity to that man. Not that it's a big deal, anyway. I should've done it long ago but I couldn't - because every other man in my life always made me feel like di

"I don't need a doc-" she protests but I cut her off quickly. "yes you do, just let him take a look," I say motioning the doctor to come to follow us. She stopped midstep watching Cora and her baby daddy. I'm still so angry at Cora for what she did to Beryl but she's pregnant. I can't do anything to her even if I wanted to. I stare at her while she's busy staring at them. She's it. She's the reason I'm not as happy as I should be when I hear the news. This little time here with her had been a fantasy. It's not real, I know. She will go back to her world and I will go back to mine, the only difference is. She will never forget my parting

I'm pregnant, I'm not saying it's your baby. But I am. Please let me live," she begs. "Lower your gun," I whisper loud enough for him to hear. "Lower your fucking gun, Killian." I had to yell for him to listen to me. Igor's phone rings loudly cutting the tension from the air. He gives me a look before picking up the call and walking out.

Baby or no baby I will make you pay." Killian says. I hope he is wrong. Because there is no chance in hell, am I ever letting him do it? "Ronan is the father," she says sobbing lightly.

He chuckles loudly like it's the funniest thing ever. His phone rang just giving me the clue to get off of him. I slid from his lap putting my dress back in its place. He closes his pants but doesn't bother with the shirt. "Yes?" "What?" He says suddenly angry. Whatever he is talking about is not good news that's for sure.
