Chapter 199

Author: Feminine Blade
"Does he have a gun? The very powerful kind?" Caleb asked.

"Of course," Millie replied without hesitation. "His aim is legendary. He could hit a target a hundred yards away." Millie started shamelessly fabricating the story.

Caleb's eyes sparkled with awe, all traces of his earlier fright gone. "Can he turn invisible?"

"Sure. He can easily climb walls and move things without touching them!"

"Does he shoot webs like a superhero?"

"Only foreign superheroes can do that, but we're not into that. Instead, he's mastered martial arts and street fighting."

Pierce had been away for over ten minutes, and Millie spent every second of it exaggerating his feats.

She didn't notice Pierce at all even though he was standing beside her, still enraptured in her fabricated storytelling.

She continued, "He can even capture ghosts! If someone dies unjustly, he can negotiate with the devil in hell and bring them back."

"Wow, that's so amazing!" Caleb exclaimed.

"Millie, if you were Pinocchio, your

    Caleb seemed a little cautious. When it was just him and Millie, his smile was genuinely bright. But now that Pierce was here, Caleb didn't know how to smile anymore. Instead, he offered a classic fake smile, grinned broadly to show his teeth, and raised a peace sign."Move aside a bit." Pierce wanted to be next to Millie and mercilessly squeezed Caleb aside.Millie angrily glared at him before wrapping an arm around Caleb and pulling him closer with a faint smile."Miss, can I kiss you?" Caleb asked."Of course," Millie replied.So, Caleb happily kissed her cheek.Just as Millie raised her phone and was about to capture the moment, Pierce suddenly leaned in from the other side.Caught off guard, Millie took the photo.In the photo, she was smiling brightly, with one person on each of her sides, both of them kissing her cheek.Millie cast a peculiar glance at Pierce. She wished he could stop acting like this. After all, people would easily misunderstand them.Millie thought t

    "Millie, just because you've come across a piece of trash, you're writing off the whole lot. Isn't that a bit too hasty?" It was a long while before Pierce finally spoke up."Maybe. Anyway, I don't have the courage anymore," Millie responded.Upon hearing these words, Pierce remained silent with his fists tightly clenched.His biggest regret was being one step too late. He had been away on a job when he received the news about the Jordan family. Without hesitation, he'd rushed back without taking a moment to rest. He was only a day late, and Stefan had already reached out to assist her.Secretly, he had stolen a glance at her once—it was three years ago when Millie still possessed that youthful and innocent glow. The way she gazed upon Stefan was like she was admiring a deity, overflowing with admiration and affection.He had protected so many people. Yet, he couldn't protect the one person he cared for the most.One misstep, and it was all over.He realized that he would ne

    On the inside, Millie was losing her mind. Did Pierce know how irresistible he was being?Millie couldn't stop the rush of her blood to her head. Her breaths came in short gasps, and her cheeks flushed with heat.Pierce had a way of exuding raw sexual energy. His hand was on her leg, slowly stroking up and down.Millie felt herself growing weak under his touch. In a flustered state, she quickly pulled away her foot.Pierce raised his gaze, looking at her with a puzzled expression. "What's wrong? Did I hurt you?""Your grip was too strong. I'll do it on my own," Millie replied."Just say the word, and I'll be more gentle." Pierce's fingertips inched closer and softly grazed against her calf.Immediately, Millie pulled away, avoiding his touch. "I'd rather do it myself. I'm not used to this.""Why is your face turning red?""Oh, I'm just tired and need to rest.""Okay then, go ahead and rest."It wasn't until Pierce left that Millie felt like she could finally compose hersel

    "Don't… Don't touch me…" Millie felt Pierce's large hand wrap around her wrist, attempting to move her hand aside in order to check the injury.His palm bore thick calluses—a testament to years of disciplined practice. Millie remembered how those same hands had explored every inch of her body in her dream, and the roughness of his calluses against her soft skin sent shivers down her spine.Startled, she quickly backed away several steps. "I'm fine. Don't worry about me... I'm fine..." she repeated those words as she hurriedly walked past Pierce and descended the stairs.Pierce was concerned about her and wanted to follow her, but she quickly stopped him. "I'm only headed downstairs to get some fresh air. Please don't follow me. I... I need to be by myself for a bit." Then, Millie scurried off as if being pursued by wild animals or a raging storm.Pierce was utterly confused. Had he done something to upset her?Millie descended the stairs and made her way to the yard.She was in

    Immediately, Pierce retreated a couple of steps, looking at Millie with a mix of emotions in his eyes.Millie became even more interested as Pierce appeared a little aggrieved. The more he avoided her, the more excited she became.In her dream before this, Pierce was always dominant, and it made her want more. But the tables had turned now, and she liked it."Is there a part of your body I can't touch?" she asked."Millie, are you drunk?" Pierce asked in confusion. Otherwise, why else would she be so bold?"I didn't drink any alcohol. Can't I call the shots since this is my dream? Come over here and let me love you.""Your dream?""Isn't it?""What do you wish to do to me in your dreams?" Pierce clenched his fists and suppressed the complicated emotions in his heart.He wanted to know what Millie would do to him in her dreams. Although he knew that he was playing with fire, he went ahead with it without care."Since you asked…" The moment Pierce stepped closer, Millie dragged

    Millie had no idea why she was so stimulated recently, but she had no way of release. Indeed, women had their needs once they matured.While her thoughts were running wild, the bathroom door swung open. Startled, Millie sank into the bathtub and hugged herself."W-What do you want?" she asked."I thought it over and decided that I can't leave.""What?"Pierce paced toward her step-by-step. "You're always the one helping me with my needs. Now that I know what you're going through, it'd look bad if I did nothing about it. I can take care of your needs, too.""Never mind! I'll find a solution. I can buy a toy, or call someone—""Call someone?" Pierce's face turned dark."No, I was just running my mouth. I'd never do something like that. I'll buy a toy—"But it was too late—Pierce already joined her in the bathtub. It was a double bathtub, so it was large and had more than enough space for two people.Millie was in her bathing suit, but in contrast, Pierce had already changed

    Millie didn't know that even before finishing, love-making could put her through a rollercoaster ride, lifting her high and throwing her down.In the beginning, she bit her lip, refusing to make a sound because she thought that she was being too promiscuous and shameful.However, Pierce always had his ways and patiently coaxed her so that she would relax little by little.He would even encourage her, saying, "The sounds you make are cute."Millie, you look really good like this. Don't be so nervous and relax, otherwise you won't feel good. Follow my rhythm."Suddenly, he asked a random question, "Millie, you've never called me hubby, have you?""Yeah," Millie mumbled in reply. Covered in sweat, she gasped for air. The pleasure had brought her waves of spasms."Will you call me hubby?"Millie's body turned stiff when she heard this. Calling Pierce hubby was more embarrassing than moaning. Their relationship was inappropriate. While they resembled friends with benefits, they we

    Mille folded the tie neatly and placed it into the drawer.She then got up and went to the bathroom to stare at herself in the mirror.Her face was still visibly flushed, and even though Pierce and her had not gone all the way, the teasing alone had already worn her out.Millie wondered what would happen if they were to reach that final step. Then, she immediately splashed her face with cold water to stop her mind from wandering further.Pierce did not want to go all the way with her. The only time he had ever brought it up was because she wanted to go public about her past.He mentioned that he would take responsibility for the rest of his life so long as she became his wife. Given his sense of duty and responsibility, he felt obliged to protect her once he had taken over her body.It served as a shackle of sorts.Pierce resisted that notion deep within his heart. Even as he reached orgasm, he had taken several steps back so as to put some distance between Millie and himself.

    The next day, Millie slept until the sun was high up in the sky. Yet, she still felt sleepy.She turned over and adjusted herself into a more comfortable position to continue sleeping. However, it was only for her to bump into a wall of flesh. Half-asleep, Millie instinctively reached out and felt around. The sensation was oddly satisfying.Millie did not think much of it. She had thought that it was only just a dream."This isn't fun," she murmured and tried to pull away.Unexpectedly, a strong and well-defined hand grasped hers, holding it firmly in place. "You get me all worked up, and now you're trying to escape, huh?"Millie suddenly heard a familiar voice coming from beside her. Her heart clenched, and she immediately realized that this wasn't just a dream. She quickly opened her eyes and met Pierce's intense gaze, filled with desire."We… We need to restrain ourselves," Millie muttered. "I'm at the peak of my youth. Why should I hold back? I should be indulging in

    Pierce had been passive at first while Millie had her way with him. But now, he had turned the tables and was on top of her. He dominated their kiss, not giving Millie a chance to catch her breath. Millie felt as though the air in her lungs had been stolen, and her lips were numb and bruised too.Pierce was in the prime of his youth. Moreover, he had worked out regularly when he was a member of the police force. He had maintained this habit post-retirement, so his body was very fit.He had boundless energy but no outlet. As someone who was almost 30 years old, he had only done it once. Later on, he could only observe and wasn't able to participate due to various reasons. Hence, he had long since been driven to the brink.He didn't know if it would eventually be harmful to his health should he continue to hold back.Right now, Pierce felt that Millie's body was exceptionally delicate. It seemed as though her limbs would break from just a light squeeze.He extended his arm and tur

    Millie became worried when she recalled the previous incident with Yulia.Just then, a girl timidly handed Pierce a bottle of water. "I-I can't unscrew the cap. Could you help me?" The girl bashfully peered at him. Her cheeks were flushed, but her gaze was bold and seductive.Millie wondered if young girls were so forward nowadays whenever they encountered someone they liked."I can help you open the bottle. But would you also believe that I could crack open your skull?" Pierce's expression was fierce and intimidating.The girl was so frightened that she nearly burst into tears. In her panic, she blindly ran away.Millie was amused as she observed the scene from the sidelines. After that, Pierce brought her along everywhere and didn't dare walk alone.It was then that things finally quieted down.Millie and Pierce leisurely cycled, taking in the natural beauty of the day. They were like a normal couple instead of Mr. and Mrs. Atkinson of Atkinson Group. They had been by themse

    Millie swiftly took some photos and handed the phone back to the guy."The photos you took look great, miss," one of them couldn't help but praise."Thanks for the compliment," Millie said with a smile.That person was so mesmerized that they stood there in a daze, unsure of what to do. Even when Millie had already walked away, he still hadn't snapped out of it."What's wrong? Do you like her?"Nathaniel Yates finally came to his senses. "N-No. Cut the nonsense. I just appreciate her photography skills."Meanwhile, Millie had gone over to sit by the water and noticed some fish in the lake. It reminded her of the last time she went fishing with Piercy. She was so lost in thought and didn't even notice that Nathaniel was secretly taking a photo of her from behind.He was using an instant camera, so the photo developed quickly.As Nathaniel stepped forward, Millie suddenly heard the noise behind her. She immediately turned around and saw an unfamiliar man, which startled her.

    Millie quietly left the room so that Pierce could bid his gun a proper farewell. Then, she went downstairs for breakfast. However, breakfast felt tasteless.Pierce went downstairs after half an hour.Though he didn't have work that day, he dressed in formal attire to make the handover look more proper.The gun was wrapped in a paper bag. He casually set it aside as if nothing was wrong and began eating breakfast."It tastes delicious, you should try some," he casually uttered, serving Millie some food.Millie saw through Pierce's act but chose not to say anything.After that, Pierce remained silent the entire way to the CBP. The atmosphere in the car was heavy.Soon, they arrived at the police station, and Jason came out."Pierce…" Jason whispered, his voice slightly choked. He knew what it meant for Pierce to return the gun this time.Pierce looked at Jason's uniform and couldn't help but give him a firm pat on the shoulder. "Do your best. I have high hopes for you."Jas

    Millie had once loved Stefan wholeheartedly, leaving herself no way out. But now, her love for Pierce was only six or seven on a scale of ten. She kept reminding herself that she shouldn't give anyone the chance to hurt her deeply again.Millie had even planned her retreat. If they broke up, she would be the one to walk away the most effortlessly.Once bitten, twice shy.Millie was well aware of her problems. Both she and Pierce had their fair share of flaws, and nobody was perfect. That was human nature."Pierce, you're way too extreme," Millie said."I know," Pierce answered.The most terrifying part was that he knew his flaws too well, yet he had no desire or intention to change.Pierce had suffered for his whole life. As an illegitimate child of the Atkinson family, he'd lost his mother at birth, and his father never loved him. The only place he ever felt a sense of belonging was with his grandfather. He was inherently a cold and unfeeling person, and the first time he bec

    The call was quickly answered."Where are you?" Millie asked."I'm still on a business trip," Pierce replied."Then turn on the video. I want to see your face."There was a brief silence on the other end of the call. Millie knew Pierce was lying. "Are you still not willing to tell me the truth? Jason came to the house, asking to take back your gun. What's going on? What happened in the days you were away?""I'll tell you when I get back home." Pierce's voice was a bit muffled.He then hung up the call and removed the bandage from the corner of his eye.The wound was right beside his eyebrow. Since he had dark eyebrows, the scar shouldn't be that noticeable. He could only cling on to this wishful thinking.With that, Pierce returned to the villa.Millie hadn't seen him for days. She felt that he had lost a lot of weight and looked even more exhausted after the trip."How did you get injured again?" she asked.Pierce initially thought it would take her a long time to notic

    Jacob eventually calmed down and said, "Do you still insist on doing this when you know it doesn't exactly benefit us?"Pierce replied, "I wouldn't dare to deceive you, neither do I dare to contact you in private. But this doesn't affect our operations, which was why I dared to do so. I want to find someone, but I can't no matter how hard I've tried, so I had no choice but to ask for their favor.""You… Are you still doing it even though we won't get anything good out of this?" Jacob asked.Pierce fell silent and clenched his fists. "Yes. I will resolve whatever problems I've caused. After that, I'll kill them in my own way."Jacob threw his cup at Pierce upon hearing this.With Pierce's skill, he could have dodged it. However, he chose to stand straight.The cup hit him right at the corner of his eye, causing him to bleed."You…" Jacob angrily stood up. "W-Why didn't you dodge?" he asked in a shaky voice."I did something wrong. It's right for you to punish me," Pierce simply

    Gideon really admired Pierce's calm and composed demeanor."What's the matter?" he asked."I need you to help me find a lady who went missing. I have to know if she's still alive or not," Pierce answered. "I need her, dead or alive. I can't do this on my own, but with your help, it'll be much easier."He had used every legal method he could think of. But desperate times called for desperate measures, and there was only one option left—to enter the underworld."You're making such a big scene just to look for this one person? What? Is she like your lover or something?" Gideon asked."She's an enemy, the kind that I want dead more than anything."The way Pierce paused after each word made him sound eerily intimidating."Is she also like us, from the underworld?""No, she's just a nobody."Gideon felt chills running down his spine. Having dealt with Pierce for this long, he thought he knew his true nature well enough—a righteous police officer who always played by the book. But ri
