She was boring holes onto the carpet. She gulped when she saw him take a seat in his chair from the corner of her eyes. He was sitting right in front of her.
"We found them in one of his old warehouses. All his men are dead," Santiago broke the silence.
"Sever their heads and send it back to him as a warning," he spoke in his deep, powerful voice, setting her frozen heart racing and sending her nerves into overdrive. The authority in his voice was unmistakable.
"Why...why are we here?" she heard Noah's shaking voice. His legs were literally trembling after what Kilian had said. Ara snapped her gaze to Noah, willing for him to shut up. But the man was far too terrified to understand anything.
Was there any lightat the end of the tunnel? She hadleft the darkness behind,years ago but she was yet to reach the light. A peaceful lifewas all she wantedsince the beginning. Now she hada peaceful life, she hadher freedom then why...why does she like she is still missing a piece.She heaved a sigh and got off the bed. After taking the shower, she came out of her room and went to Angelato take her to breakfast. Noah was already there at the table, eating his breakfast."Hii," he said to her."Hi," Ara greeted back and sat nextto Angela."The only good thing about this place is the food. It's of top class. These rich people do have all the luxur
One of the servants had told her to get ready as she had to accompany Killian to the school forAngela's admission.Ara got Angela dressed in a light greengown and braided her blond hair. The dress complemented her forest green eyes that were sparkling like dewy leaves. Ara was wearing a peach color gown and had styled her hair in a simple pony, her cross glittering earrings were adding to her simplicity. She applied her strawberry flavoredchapstick and she was all set to go. Not a moment later, a maid came appeared and told her to hurry up as they were expected outside. She quickly took her wallet and made Angela sit on the wheelchair. She wheeled herout of the room.The mansion was always quiet and felt more so since Jenna wasn't here. Angela was also quiet as she was a little nervous. Ara felt pity for the little girl. She was too young to go through this much trauma. She was too young to go through the pain ofseeingher paren
She had no idea that physical contact can be this assuring, thisrelieving. Having him close now, she felt safe and protected. She tightened her arms around his stillframe,pressed her face against his warm chest,and closed her eyes, reassuredthat he willkeep her safelike always. Unlike previous times,his scent was havinga strange calm effect on her.Killian elevated his arm and shot a man. The gunshot caused her toflinchand nuzzledeeper into his chest. He didn't wrap his arms around her but he didn't push her away also. Ara clenched her eyes and basked in the security he provided until the noise had finally settled down."You okay?" his voice wassoftand comforting, blissfullycomforting. She knew he was talking to her. She nodded against his chest but didn't move away. Just a little longer, she thought, it felt good.They remained like this for a few moments before her fear
Today, she decided to thank him for rescuing them yesterday.With that in her mind, she headed towards his study. For some reason, he had been spendingmost of his time at his study. She knocked at his door before opening it. She popped her head in and found Killian and Natasha inside. They were looking at her."Arabella," Natasha rose to her feet and flashed her a smile."Hi," Arabella got in and waved at her, feeling a little awkward. Killian looked away from her and focused on his laptop. His jaw was clenched."Hi," Natasha greeted her back. Ara turned towards Killian who was boringholes into the screen."I think I sh
"We need to talk," she declared in afirm and determined voice.Killian threw back the remaining of his drink and stomped the glass onto the table before risingto his feet all the while keeping his eyes on her. His eyes were bloodshot.Ara licked her lips in nervousness under his scrutinizing gaze and stepped inside the room, letting the door shut behind her.Killian was watching her stoically as she approached him with littlehesitant strides.God, he is intimidating even when he was just standing there doing nothing. "How much do you want?" he queried. Ara halted and looked up at him in confusion.
She turned her face away, not meeting his eyes. He cradled her cheeksand turned her face towards him."I am sorry for everything I did to you, Bella. For everytime I hurt you. For every accusation. You are right I am a monster but this monster is hopelessly in love with you, sweetness. So much so that he can't control his emotions around you. It's pathetic," he explained as he wiped her tears.'Do you deserve my forgiveness?"she pulled his hands off her face and asked him as another tear dropped down her eyes."I don't," he replied, feeling hopeless." Your sorry won't bring back what I lost," there was a catch in her voice. He knew it. She was an angel and he ruined her for his selfish needs
The gunshot pierced through the frozen air of the room.Ara, stunned to her bone,watched him flinch back as the bullet stabbed throughhis guts, point-blank. He gasped, feeling the bullet through his flesh. His liddedeyes were fixedon her, shimmering with adoration and longing. The agony was also glisteningin them, the reason wasn't the dreadful pain wrenchinghis guts but allthe hopes he had lost in that moment. The hope of spending a lifetime with her. The hope of building a life with her.The hope of waking up next to her every morning. He wasn't going to wake up again. This was the end.He didn't want to live in a world where she was not his.He hated himself for not being enough for her. He hated himself for n
After hours of waiting, he was finally awake. The doctor allowed them to see him.Sophia, Alex, and everyone went inside. Ara also followed them in. Her heart was racing furiously.His back was propped up with the help of a pillow. The nurse was checking on his vitals whereas he was staring up at the ceiling."Brother," his gaze shifted to Sophia who was standing by the door. She rushed over and threw her arms around him, mindful of his injury.She broke down in his arms. Killian was the last of her family, she didn't want to lose him too."Hey,I am fine, dolphin," Killian draped his arm over her shoulder andpatted her hair.
After recovering from his years-long amnesia, the former Mafia King vowed to get back his crown.They played him. His second in command and the love of his life. He was a fool to believe them. He shouldn’t have ignored the signs. He shouldn’t have let drugs impair his abilities. Now the damage was done.He now clearly remembered the night, his second in command had almost killed him.After assuming him dead, he had thrown him into the sea, hoping the fishes would eat his body. But no matter how powerful a person is, he cannot overpower fate.The man was rescued by the fishermen.Th
It was one month after their honeymoon did Ara find out she was pregnant. Killian was on cloud nine when he learned it. He was so happy that he bought Ara an island for making him a dad. However, the man didn’t know that the pregnancy would turn his sweet Bella into an always frustrated woman. Her mood swings were terrible than his. One moment she would be all cheery and in the next, the fire would be spewing out of her eyes. One morning she had told him to bring her pineapple cake. As the day went by, he forgot and returned home empty-handed. “Where is my cake?” this is how she welcomed him. Her eyes scanned him for her cake as if it would be somewhere on him. “Oh..sweety, I forgot it. I’ll get you one tomorrow, okay?” he walked over smilingly and pecked her lip. Ara gave a slight nod with her head hung low. Killian walked up to their room to freshen up. After getting fresh, he returned and settled in his chair. Bella was sitting next to him. He had hardly taken a bi
She was gasping and moaning while clutching hard on the metal as he thrusted in and out of her, discarding all restraints. Her hips hit the railing repeatedly as he pumped her violently.She was bent over the railing with her ass up in the air for her husband who was fucking her from behind like a wild animal. His large callous hands were splayed over her hips with his heavy balls slapping against her clit, every time he slammed into her. The shimmering Eiffel tower in front of her held no allure as her attention was captivated by his thick rigid cock which was currently pumping into her with ruthless ferocity.she could feel his hot breath on the side of her neck and the beads of his sweat dripping down on her inflammable back despite the cold night.He withdrew a couple of inches then
With a swift turn, Killian took over the maroon car.The smaller vehicle screeched to a halt. Killian opened the door and got down his SUV. He scanned the surrounding beneath his shades and lastly rested his eyes on the car. One by one, the men started climbing out of the car.Killian remained calm like the surface of ocean water. He didn’t react even when they yanked Bella out like an animal. The man knew one reaction from him could result in the termination of her life. So he acted unaffected.His heart was raging with a fierce vengeance but he held himself back and watched the man manhandling his woman. He silently vowed that he will make them pay with their blood for every drop of tears she spilled.The man didn’t know he w
Killian's POVHe watched her walking away. His Bella was leaving him. An excruciating pain tore through his anxious heart, benumbing his senses. He called her. He begged her. His vision blurred as he felt something warm trailing down his cheek. He was crying. His heart was restless, it was twisting in agony.The rough edges of the cuff dug into his skin, drawing out blood as he struggled against it to reach her.His pleading voice as he begged her to stay sounded foreign to his ear. He was a conqueror, he ruled his world with an iron fist. This voice was known for barking orders and issuing threats. He was never the one to plead but here the tables had turned. The man who ruled the world was on his knees now, begging for his woman to stay. It is in that moment he realized, how she had turned everything upside do
Did you or did you not trade the information?" he slammed the butt of the gun against the back of his head."I..I did..I am sorry, forgive me. I became greedy for money," Sweat poureddown from every pore of his body. As he joined his tremblinghands and pleaded with tears streaming down his eyes. He wason his knees."An inheritance claimed too soon will not be blessed at the end," Killian skimmed the barrel of the gun down his bloodstained cheek. The man looked up at him, confused."I reckon you don't reed bible, eh" Killian smirked. In all honesty, he also had never read the bible but staying with his devotee wife, he unintentionally had memorized a few verses. Let's say, he had memorizedhalf of the holy book. The consequences of marrying a
Killian was on tenterhooks as he spedtowards the hospital. Ten minutes ago, he was in his office, getting readyfor a presentation when Natashacalledand told him about Ara. He dropped everything right that moment and departed for the hospital where his wife was admitted.He hastily stopped the car and climbed out. With long, urgent strides, he walked towards the receptionist and asked her about his wife. One moment later, the woman told him the room she was in. Killian turned and hurriedtowards the mentioned room.He stoppedoutside the labor room and swiped a hand down his face in nervousness. Right on cue, a doctor opened the door and sauntered out. Killian stopped him."Is my wife alright?" he asked.
"But we are married," she looked confused."I want to see love for me in your eyeswhen you will say "I do,"he disclosedsoftly. This was the softest side of him. A side that didn't exist for the world. A side only she evoked and according to him deserved.Ara's lips curved into a smile as she raised her hands and raked her fingers through his silky sweaty air. "I would love to," she stated, lifting her head andbrushing her lips against his. Killian captured her lips into a heartfelt kiss."Pack your bags. We will head out in the eveningtomorrow," he murmured against her lips.Her brows pulled together in confusion."Where?" she askedHis eyes twinkled with excitement as he looked into her eyes."Paris," he stated and pulled her lips into anotherdeep kiss...........Ara stared at her reflection t
Ara had organized a family dinner to celebrate Killian's birthday. Sophia, Natasha, Santiago all were invited. The day was big and she didn't want to leave any stone unturned. Luckily, she had the whole day toarrange as Killian had already left for work in the morning. Poor guy, he couldn't get rest even on his birthday. But it was good in a way, he wouldn't have let her even out of their bedroom if he had stayed home.Ara let the maids cook all the dishes as she didn't know much about Spanish food. She only cooked Killian's favorite and thedessert."Bro, the enticing aroma of your food can be smelled from the maingate of the mansion. The guards areliterally salivating," Natasha entered the kitchen, eyeing the food with keen interest.Ara turned and smiled."They are in luck then. I've made some for them too," she stated."You are an angel, Ara," Natasha said, grabbingsomepieces of c
