I felt Angel's hand snaking slowly around my waist and my breath broke out. "Maybe after the party." I said hastily hoping to stop him." Maybe...." He whispered back and tugged me to his chest. I bit my lip hard stopping myself from moaning."Angel...please the maids are watching." I reminded him seeing the steward dish out instructions to the maids that came with him to greet us.I felt Angel's hand withdraw from my waist and I sighed in relieve."After the party then." He said behind me and took my hand leading me into the mansion.We were lead towards the grand hall in the mansion were events were held my parents. Just before the head security could give the order for the door to be opened, a familiar voice stopped us in time from entering.I turned towards the direction from where the masculine voice came. "Carl...." I muttered seeing my mum's body guard. His eyes were showing several emotions, from shocked to happy to admiration. "Thea... Goodness! Where have you been?" He a
"Mum... I didn't leave town. Angel bought me to be his whore."" What?" My mum asked horror filling her eyes as she pulled me behind her. Scott was shocked as well but not in disbelieve. He obviously knew the kind of life his son lived. I saw Carl running down the stairs along with some other bodyguards sorrounding us."Denzell, my suspicions were right. Order your men to secure the mansion and seize Angel's men." Carl said to the head bodyguard through his radio. "Angel...?" Scott called putting a step forward. "How could you?" His voice was gruff as he spoke, peering into Angel's eyes who had nothing but anger towards me."Stay out of this dad. I don't have to explain myself to you." His voice came out hoarsed. He was talking to Scott but his raging eyes were on me. I looked away in fear not wanting to catch his dreadful gaze.I was terribly scared. I just hoped I made the right decision. "She's your stepsister!" Scott yelled but tried not to take any steps further. "I don't c
I kept crying profusely inside the car till we got to the mansion. I ran out of the car and threw up by the side. I had been holding my spew back for long. I looked back and didn't sight Angel's car near so I hurried into the mansion moving straight to Florentine's room. I began banging her door until it yanked open."Thea... What's the matter?" I hurried into her room and shut her door immediately. She had horror in her eyes just like me seeing the way I was shaking. "What happened? Where's Angel?" "He's going to kill me Florentine." I said sobbing harder. I saw her expression turn quzzical before realization dawned on her."No, no, no... Thea?" She said digging her fingers into her hair and sighing in frustration. "I swear I didn't plan to. It just happened in a minute. I thought I could be free."" Shhh...." Florentine pulled me into her arms stroking my back gently. "He isn't here?" She asked and I nodded. I'll call knight to talk to him before he gets here." She wiped my tea
"Don't make me hurt you Thea...I never want to hurt you again." I had expected to feel the sting of Angel's belt on me but instead I heard his words and it surprised me. Was he letting me off the hook? I was still unsure and anticipated his whip but it never came. Then he came to stand before me and surprised me more when he started removing all the tools on my body that were inflicting pain on me.I fell into his arms unable to keep my balance and he caught me. Despite the soreness I felt on my fingers, nipples and knee I tried to move to get a clearer view of his expression, maybe I could find some answers there. Angel looked down on me and I tried to believe what his eyes were telling me. He had guilt ravaging his eyes but why? I was the one who betrayed him. I let my fingers touch his chest slightly and he stiffened. Was that an effect from my touch? He was confusing me."Why did you stop?" I voiced in a low tone. He sighed and avoided my gaze and it only made me have more quest
TheaI took to my heels immediately, my mum was daring to have come here. I knew Carl was behind it. He obviously placed a tracking device on one of Angel's car at the party but why did my mum come alone?I got to the living room and I stopped at the entrance to see my mum in-between five men. Two guards behind her then before her was Angel, knight and Caspian.She had tears on her eyes but she looked angry.My gaze trailed from her to Angel trying to note the situation and before I could take a step further my mum moved towards Angel and the sound of her hand on his cheek resounded over the place.I stood there frozen by shock with my lips slightly parted. Did she just hit Angel? Angel wasn't moving but his men seemed to have been taken aback by my mum's bold move. I hurried my steps into the room to calm one side at least. "Mum!" I called hurrying towards her. She looked at me with wide eyes as if her crashed hopes of seeing me were restored."Thea...my love." She held my hand an
Angel'Son of a slut' The word hurt more than when I had been shot. I thought about my mother, the woman who let love destroy her. She was currently in a vegetative state and it was all thanks to my father for messing up our lives the second time. My mother showed me how love could turn one weak and my father taught me that one woman could never be enough. He was a serial cheater while I was growing up.He reduced his yearly body count as the years went by but I knew he never repented. I was going to dead my heart to love and see women as nothing more than sex tools.I didn't want to be weak like my mother and I didn't want to be tied to a commitment and become a serial cheater like my father.Those were my fears but I got to live with them until I took her.My worst fear seemed to be happening to me and I was letting it happen because it felt like I couldn't breath without her. She had succeeded in getting me unexplainably attached to her. No matter how much I tried to deny it, I k
TheaI paced about my room after Holf dropped me. I needed to know what was going down there but I knew the big guy wouldn't let me past the door. I snapped my head towards the door suddenly when it yanked open. My heart made a leap the moment Angel walked through my door. I just stood there, fear gripping me. I know I had asked him to purnish me instead of my mum but it didn't mean I was ready for it now. He began walking towards me and I let out a nervous sigh to ease my tension but it was a failed attempt. The moment he stood in front of me it heightened. I found my lips quivering as I tried to voice out some words."Are you going to purnish me?" I asked in a low voice." No." He said and my eyes squinted in shock. Did he really mean that? I found his hand reaching for me and I wondered what he was trying to do. His hand touched my skin and a shiver went down my spine. I was still very much affected by him even in this situation.To my surprise, Angel pulled me into his arms and
"It means I want you... More than I ever thought I could." His words made me voiceless. I could only stare at him. He was acting different and the frown on his face told me he didn't like my silence. "Why are you saying all this?" I gasped as he hit his hand against the wall above me.He was shaking slightly."Don't play it down Thea... Don't pretend like you don't know what I mean." He said it out like it was difficult for him to say. How was I supposed to put a meaning to what a mafia boss was telling me? He hurt me, tried to hurt my mum so how could he be saying such things to me?"Because I don't know what you mean." He scoffed in disbelieve but I was being honest. He pulled away from me and I almost wanted to pull him back. He nodded in disappointment then turned his back on me but he wasn't moving. He tilted his head back and I heard him sniff. Why did it sound like he was holding back a tear? That couldn't be real, it was all in my head. "I'm sorry I hurt you and I'm sorry I
