AngelIt took a lot of courage to ask Thea one of the things that had burdened me and her reply didn't ease it."Would you let me go even if I wanted?"She asked and when I said nothing she sighed in defeat. I could see the disappointment in her eyes. I knew she was hoping I'd say yes and of course I'd definitely want to say no but my heart had been in conflict with my mind.I wanted her to myself but I knew I'd feel more satisfied if she did it on her own accord. I didn't want her to be with me and be unhappy.My mind kept telling me to give her a choice if I truly loved her but my heart was too weak to come to an agreement.We were now at the penthouse theatre watching a movie she picked out. She was laying on my chest with her arms wrapped around me.I breathed in her scent and fuck it! How could I think of letting her go and not touching her for even a day or breathing her scent.I craved her so fucking much.She moved her hand around me hugging me tighter and I let my hand stroke
Her heart sank into her belly, rose up and raced fast that it felt like it was going to explode.Lucia felt uncomfortable and seeing his eyes on Camilo, her heart burnt with jealousy. She could just poison Camilo with the way she hated her but then Caspian would know she was the one and kill her before she even tried to lie about it.Camilo's hand weakened on the knife and she looked away feigning concentration in what she was doing.Caspian kept drawing near seeing that she was tensed due to his presence. He took a glance at Lucia before standing behind Camilo who stiffened at his proximity. She could feel his breath on her neck then slowly she felt his hand snaking from the back of her waist to her belly.She stiffened for some seconds and the wave of sensual desire took over her body at his touch. She should hate this man but how did he manage to make her body react to his touch so easily?She knew the answer already it was because she had fallen in love with the same man she ha
KnightFor a while now, I had been the one interpreting my pal's feelings and situation and now that the fuckers finally had a grasp of their situation they left me alone by myself. Not that I gave a care in the world. Who was I kidding? I did give two fucks!Angel was out at the penthouse with Thea and even though he had told me he wanted me to act like it didn't exist for Thea's sake, he couldn't hold himself back. The fucker was all over Thea and I knew the men were talking.Angel was a ruthless cunt and even though he was in love, it didn't mean he'd go easy on his own men if he found them talking.I had caught some of them talking at one point and had given them a warning if they so loved their lives.I had headed to the kitchen later on to catch some snacks to keep me busy since I couldn't go to Caspian knowing he could be fucking his bitch at the moment. I was right but the venue, I didn't expect to be in our fucking kitchen. I had seen the maid run out in tears shutting the
KnightThe room was dark but my eyes had settled in the darkness to see the enchanting figure laying on my bed. I got furious when the men brought her in unconscious but they had explained she wouldn't have come otherwise. Knowing Cassie, she was that stubborn to prove them right. I let my fingers caress her cheek softly and the moment I felt her stiffen I pulled away. She turned in bed slightly showing she was back to consciousness.I looked away, inhaling deeply, I was a bit nervous for her reaction once she saw me. I certainly was the last person she'd want to see.I heard a whimper then a sob followed which alerted me instantly. "Hey... What's wrong?" I asked but she moved away gradually from the bed. I let her crawl her way out of the bed."I'm I being kidnapped?" She teared out. For fuck sake! I wanted to yell but remembered she could not see me in the dark. I heaved a sigh and replied. "No." "Who's there?" Her voice came out teary and pleadingly. I remained silent and began
AngelWe left for the mansion the next morning. I had to repeat the same food I made for her the previous day. It was all I knew how to cook. I didn't miss out on Thea's uneasiness ever since that moment at the pool. I was quite displeased with her answer but I couldn't do anything about it. I was going to keep Thea by my side either way.She was mine and would continue to be.I entangled my hand in her's as we walked to the car. It felt so heavenly holding her. I walked her to her side of the car and made to move to mine when my phone began to ring. I took one quick glance at her then took my phone out to see the caller. My eyes squinted seeing the name that appeared on my screen."Cassie?" I called and took another glance at Thea who seemed taken aback. "What?" I questioned feeling confused for a split second. "It's fine. Come whenever you want." I said and hung up. I looked at Thea worried about how she felt. Even though she tried to keep a straight face I could tell she had made
KnightIt was weekend already and I was to get Cassie. She had opted for a text instead of picking my calls. She was stubborn but I wondered how long she could put up the attitude with me. She was a see-through, initially I was scared that I had lost her given she had been away for a year but after that night I was convinced that a year wasn't enough for her to forget me. If something, I think I ignited the spark she had tried so hard to get rid of.My arm hung at the cars window while I looked at her figure approaching my car looking all pissed off.She raised the boot and dumped her luggage into it before coming into the car. I chuckled softly seeing her acting uncaring when she was indeed being obvious. If her feelings were entirely gone then there was no need to bear so much grudge towards me.She slumped into the seat giving the 'I don't care' vibe and I was about to say something when she cut me off."Drive!" I scoffed and chuckled afterwards. This was going to be fun.We arri
AngelI hurried after Thea. Heavens saved me, I didn't intend to make her feel uncomfortable back there. The look in her eyes when Cassie's look had insinuated the obvious that she was my whore and the fact that I was careless with my response afterwards."Thea!" I called grabbing her wrist and turning her towards me. Her soft breast brushed against my chest and my breath seized for a moment.She wasn't looking at me and remained silent which was driving me crazy. "Come with me. We need to talk." I said pulling her along."Where?" She asked hastening her steps to my pace. "Your office?" She asked seeing I was walking towards the direction. It didn't occur to me why she seemed nervous untill I saw the guards standing at the entrance of my office. Yeah fuck! Well...here we are again. The guards kept a straight face but it didn't stop her from feeling embarrassed. I quickly led her into my office and shut the door behind us then she flinched the moment I pressed her back to the door
AngelI had gotten Thea to calm down but I hated myself for this, for however she was feeling. I had gotten a dress from her room for her to change into since I destroyed the one she had on. She had just finish dressing and was now facing me. I cupped her cheek in my palms tilting her head up to look at me. "I'm sorry." I said and her lips twitched. She nodded but didn't say anything. I placed my head on hers before dropping a kiss on it, I also kissed her knuckles then dropped one more on her lips.I let my thumb caress her cheek while I peered deeply into her eyes."I'll talk to Cassie.""No, let me." She countered. "You don't need to, she's my sister. I can handle it.""Like you did a while ago?" Fuck it! She was right. If it weren't for her I wouldn't bother getting Cassie to understand. Cassie was stubborn and I really didn't care because I had no reason to explain myself each time she disagreed with anything I did.Thea was changing me. I couldn't even desire any woman after
Angel's men as well as Lola's men had searched every part of the house to make sure there wasn't anyone hidden or any dirty business in one corner of the mansion but Sparrow didn't come short of expectations. He had some men locked down.They were Manuel's men. Angel and Knight had taken Thea home. Knight had spoken with Cassandra since the chaos was over. She was worried sick about the situation snd when she was told the goodnews she was so excited. The rest didn't hold back.Camila and Florentine wanted to hear Thea's voice to be certain that Knight wasn't lying. The gasp of relieve and tears over the phone just said how heartbroken and worried they had been about the situation. Thea's mum had been informed of Thea's rescue also, so she hurried to the mansion. Alfred and scott went along with her too. When they finally arived the compound, everyone was outside. Cassandra was the first to run into into Angel's arms, Camila and Florentine had gone to hug Thea, Camila's hug was prol
As Natalia fired shots at the wall and ground, the sparks ignited the nearby fuel canister. The fuel spilled onto the old, dry wood, and the fire spread quickly. The temperature in the room increased, causing the smoke to become thick and black.Angel and Thea panicked, covering their mouths to avoid inhaling the toxic fumes. "We need to leave here, or we'll burn!" Angel yelled.Natalia, realizing her mistake, hastily tried to find an escape. But the fire had already blocked the entrance, and the old wooden structure was beginning to collapse. The sound of cracking wood and falling fragments filled the air."We need to leave here or we'll burn." Angel said holding Thea's hand."There's no way out." She panicked, scared to go through the fire. Angel had to get her to calm down so he cupped her face in his palms. "Now isn't the time for talking my love. I believe we'll make it out. Just trust me. You have to be fast." He said and even though Thea was scared, she knew Angel would do ev
TheaI held my breath at the countdown. This had to be the scariest moment of my life. I didn't know what to expect, how being blown up would feel. Would I feel the pain or would it happen so quickly that I wouldn't feel a thing? I guess it was painless because everything here was silent. Maybe it was peaceful on the otherside.... But then a gasp echoed and I heard Angel's voice sobbing, his hands hugging my legs. It felt so real. "Open your eyes...." His voice was as real as ever. I heard the sound of air in the room, almost like my senses were heightened. The smell of fuel returned to my nostrils.Slowly, I opened my eyes to see Angel, his eyes filled with tears, his entire expression showing relieve. I let out a sharp sigh as I took in the picture of my sorrounding. My breath got deeper and my heart constricted. I began to tear up. I looked at Angel, I wanted to touch him, my hands were still tied to the chair but just seeing him was everything to me. "Angel...." I cried as te
As Angel ran to the cell where Natalia had left Thea, he noticed that Rico left him. Son of a bitch heard there was little time left and decided to save himself instead.By the time Angel arrived, Thea was sweating heavily and tearing up bitterly. His heart breaks even more seeing her condition and hearing the beeping sound of the bomb. Everything became more real. It was now a fact that if he didn't work fast he'd be losing the most important person in his life. "Thea!" He yelled wasting no time to run to her. Thea remained frozen for some seconds, wondering if he was real. Her chest began rising and falling heavily realizing he was real. Angel had come to save her. "A-Angel" She cries out his name, a wave of relieve washing through her. "Thea...." He muttered and his eyes quickly studied the bomb. He noticed that someone had already began the work and putting two things together it had to be the man that gave him the direction. "Angel there isn't much time left." She cried, tr
After Angel and Rico had seen the footage of where Natalia had taken Thea to, they immediately went to her rescue. Rico led the way as he knew the place better than Angel. On the other hand, Natalia was hurrying out of the place looking behind her with each corner she took knowing that the guard she had left behind would be running aftet her. She was going to shut the metal gate so that when he got to the entrance, he wouldn't have an escape. While she ran, the sound of hasty footsteps caught her attention and she gradually came to a halt from her flight. Her soul almost left her seeing Angel and the head security. At first, she was relieved to see that Angel was alive but soon shock enveloped her and she became confused to see the head security with Angel. They were not even close to knowing each other, so why were they together? Angel and Rico also came to a halt seeing Natalia. In that moment, Angel felt like his entire world had been turned upside down seeing the gun in Natal
My tears were unstoppable, I felt great pity for myself and I had never felt so scared in my life. With everything I had been through, I didn't deserve to die like this. I wanted to live and I wanted to be happy. I had lived my life pleasing others, If I could get one more chance to live, I would put myself first. I would spend the rest of my life with Angel and I wouldn't care about other people's opinion. Please... Just one more chance. I prayed while sobbing profusely as the clock kept ticking. I worried about Angel, he'd be so heartbroken if anything happened to me. He risked his life to save me today and he couldn't even be with me in my last moments. Then my mum, I knew she'd never forgive herself should I lose my life. Nothing would console her once I was gone.A lot of people would be hurt. This wasn't supposed to happen. I kept shedding tears, crying aloud like a kid. I grieved myself even before I blew up. I wanted to live, I really wanted to live. "I don't want to
TheaI didn't trust Natalia for even a second, when she made the proposal to Sparrow to take me to his safe room, I knew something had to be wrong but then, Sparrow trusted her. Choosing between her and sparrow was like choosing between two evil. I would have protested against going with her but staying with Sparrow and such number of guards wasn't a risk I wanted to take. If someone was to rescue me, it would be easier with Natalia but then Natalia hated me. Sparrow would only kill me by error but Natalia would do that in a heartbeat if she wanted to. It was a confusing situation and my fears were starting to become a reality. "Natalia where are you taking me to?" I asked, fear gripping my entire being when we started going a long pathway that looked abandoned. What kind of safe was this? It looked like where someone would never be found. Natalia had kept silent while the guard that came with us kept dragging me into the place. The stench of this place was terrible, I didn't t
After the phone call with Sparrow at the mansion that day, Angel assigned duties to his men, and they immediately sprang into action. They successfully tracked down the location where the video was sent from, but they were unable to trace the phone call. One crucial detail they discovered was that the location was near a gun company.The men made inquiries at the gun company to determine who had recently purchased guns. The records showed that the guns were bought under Don Ricardo's name, which raised suspicions. Angel wondered if this was why Lola hadn't been answering her calls. He wouldn't blame her if she chose not to betray her father again but he couldn't understand how Don Ricardo could be involved in this.The next day, Lola contacted Angel and arrived at the mansion. To Angel's surprise, Don Ricardo had not bought the guns. Sparrow had used his name, and what shocked Angel the most was that Sparrow had kidnapped his own father. Lola told Angel that it seemed her father had b
Thea is dragged in by Sparrow's men and the moment she sees Angel, she gasps in fear. Tears well up in her eyes and she soon tears start streaming down her face."Thea." Angel called, impulsively going to her but he is stopped from going closer."Angel!" She yells when Sparrow's men begin to kick him in the belly. Sparrow just relaxes back on his seat enjoying the sight. Thea struggles to get to Angel unable to hold back the pain she felt from seeing him hurt. He groaned in pain from the several kicks that came at him but that didn't matter to him. He just hated seeing Thea cry so bitterly for him. He kept his gaze locked on her while they beat him up.She was his strength. "I told you not to come so why?" She cried once they left him. He was willing to lay his life down to secure her freedom and she was willing to be Sparrow's play thing and live with him for the rest of her life as long as it kept Angel alive. To her, her freedom wasn't worth his life. A scream erupts from her t
