**Odessa pov** Aryan walked to the cashier swiftly withdrawing his card out and extending it to the cashier behind the counter, she did a quick calculation and then handed him back his card. “Thank you sir!” The cashier said and she gave her a sexy smile as he nodded back to her and walked out. Aryan was used to getting hit on regularly that he had grown an immunity to it, most would say he is snobbish and maybe so but he had better use of his time than to engage in meaningless chit chat with a woman he knew would not amount to anything. He stepped out and saw Dave was just out there beside the vehicle busy fidgeting with his phone, the man was always working but he quickly notice him approaching and he rushed forward to him Aryan stopped for him so they won’t collide, what ever he had to say was important as he was looking around as if it by sure they were alone. “Sir I just got a report that Ray is missing” he whispered once he reached Aryan but Aryan just nodded to him a
It looked like her eyes wanted to pop out of her head as her mouth hung open“That bitch!” She said in a hoarse voice “Easy tiger” I teased her while smiling“Why are you so cool about this!? She was the one who got you divorced are you aware of that!?” She was really angry at the dead woman for my sake that I was sure if she had not been dead she might have confronted her and beat her ass wherever she found her because that was just the kind of friend Blair was. “Yea I am aware, but what’s weird is that I am grateful to her for what she did!” Blair looked at me shocked as if i had gone mad“You know because of your divorce was why you were out the night you got kidnapped!? By extension she got you kidnapped!?” She explained as if she needed me to be as angry as she was if not more. True that night would never have happened if I was with child and yes I hated that night but thinking back I think I would have preferred the momentary inconvenience if it meant I would not spend forev
I AM NOT REALOdessa stir in her sleep as she flinched because she felt the sun on her face slowly she stirred in bed and then she felt someone beside her, without opening her eyes she knew who it was and his masculine scent was so intoxicating, she smiled as she adjusted into his arms and as if on cue he cuddled her. She tried to sleep but his masculine musk as invading her senses and so she opened her eyes to look up at him I saw that he was still asleep but his arm was around her, she smiled to her self for a second there she was worried she had lost him somehow and she would never wake up to his cute and innocent face when he sleeps. Without thinking she brought her hand up slowly so she could feel his face, his skin was warm and soft his short dark brown hair curled lightly around his face over his eyes and she slowly shifted it aside while she reached her thumb and softly ran her finger over the side of his lips so lightly, he looked so peaceful when he sleeps and she loves how
**ODESSA POV**”Aryan!?” I called out as I sat up suddenly“Aryan!?” I called again as I searched the bed for him and slowly it dawn to me it was all a dreamBlair just stood there looking at me shocked but she did not say a wordI could not believe that I dreamt that, all of that. In my dream he was there and he cuddled me like he usually does when we slept together, I honestly thought he was there and why do I honestly want him to be!?It was as if I was missing an important part of myself and he was the one with it“Another bad dream!?” Blair asked coming over to place her hand on my forehead to check for fever and hold me to be sure I was okay Yes it was a dream but it wasn’t a bad one which was weird because before now anytime I dreamt of Aryan it was always a bad dream but this was different, this time it was a good dream and I missed it I felt I could go back, I wish I could and almost felt like crying when I realized it was all in my head. “Odessa are you sure you’re OK” Bl
**ARYAN POV**I just stood there looking at Nadia Williams as she walked into my office. The woman was actually beautiful even more so than her picture. but yet why do I feel as if this won’t work!?I had instructed Dave to bring her in today as I would prefer to get it all done so she and I would know where we stand, Lucas had called her and she showed up now here she was. Lucas had brought her in and I stood to go to her and introduce myself to her, she just stood there giving me a charming smile and just as I hoped she said nothing stupid or annoying which was a plus because I couldn’t stand a woman who talks too much, she just smiled and waited for me to speak first. “Hello I am Aryan Seagrave” I said introducing myself as I stretched my hand to her“I am Nadia Williams, your beautiful date!” She said making a small joke as she took my hand in hers. She was quite delicate and soft as her hand over mine was so soft and feminine it exited my palm and she seems to have a healthy
**ODESSA POV**The Tesla car was everything it’s advertised itself to be.The Tesla's low, flat floor makes for a spacious and airy feel inside. The front seats are supportive and comfortableand the interior sounds are exquisite and it is also an EV which means it had very little to no carbon emissions.It was worth the price and Blair was very satisfied with it which was all the thanks I needed just watching her smile like a childSeeing her smile so widely as she drove the vehicle while fiddling with her spare hand as if she was a child who just got a new toy which was probably what was happening now apart from the fact she was a grown adult but it was cute to watchI just left her be to play with it and just smiled as I rested back into the comfortable leather thinking about my own life
**ARYAN POV**I was in shock as I stared at her, out of everyone I thought I would meet today she was not even in the top 8billion that is if I were to make a list but yet here she was looking at me with shock and even then she was the moat beautiful creature I have ever laid my eyes onI felt like pulling her in a deep embrace and kissing her while telling her just how much I have missed her and can’t function without her but that would be stupid, she would mist likely slap me.“Lucas what are they doing here!” Dave demanded of Lucas obviously angry and frustrated at the mix up, I could not blame him, the man was actively trying to make me forget Odessa only for her to be standing right in front of me, for him it was a scandal, if he had his way he will pull me by my hand and take me back downstairs so I would not spend another second in the same space as h
**ODESSA POV**I could not believe that I thought for a second that I could trust him, o felt stupid, it was not as if I did not know he would replace me and it was even battle up to 3 days.why was I so pissed!?the man has proven to me time and time again that he was capable of being faithful at all and not to talk of being with one person.He got me shot and after bringing me back from the hospital he still fucked not one but two women in the same house I was in, he did not even respect me even a little. He was a monster.But despite my anger a part of me still wondered if he had a perfect explanation for having brought that woman who once insulted me here with him but I knew there was no rational reason to do that, she even placed her hands on him romantically and said she was his date.She said it
Let me ask you a question, do you think the police do no know about me?” I asked her a rhetorical one as I turned to look at her and saw she got my point, I continued upstairs while she followed “Do you think Odessa is the first woman I have kidnapped? Don’t you think there have been more? And if that is the case would you not think there have been people who have reported and me to the police?” “There are a total of 6 bed rooms in this house, 4 are all upstairs with conjoining restrooms and even their own seating room while just two are down stairs” I said as I showed her every single room, but I was convinced her mind was not at my house tour rather it was on what I had said last. “So about what I was saying last, if there are people like that who suspected me and believe I was behind the disappearance of their love one that would beg the question why haven’t the authorities done anything about it right? And even more where are all those who believe I was behind it? where are
Lucas drove carefully as he followed Aryan’s vehicle, he did not need to as he already knew the way to his home but knowing Aryan he might not be taking them to his house, maybe one of his numerous properties, he could not Imagine Aryan carrying Blair to his real home if he does not intend to kill her afterwards “You know you should be really careful how you accept invitations in the future” he said to Blair who was sitting at the passengers seat and awfully quiet. “Yea? Why?” She asked stubbornly “You know if it were just anyone and not you that there is a big chance you might die today? Do you know that?” Blair gave a skeptical laugh “And you think he would just get away with murdering someone? Who does he think he is?” She asked as she was getting upset. It was obvious she did not know the power and influence Aryan has “You really don’t know how powerful he is?” He asked rhetorically “Just don’t upset him please. That’s all I ask because if you do I am not certain I
“You! Where are you taking her to!” She suddenly turned to face Aryan as she attacked, this was exactly what I feared, exactly what I knew should happen“Blair! Please stop, not now!” I scolded her “But that is actually a great question!” Aryan said and I was forced to turn in my seat and look up at him, this could only be a joke right!? He was supporting her attack on him?Why!?“How are you feeling Odessa?” Lucas asked after he nodded to Aryan and Dave. It looked like he was trying to lighten the mood and remind every party that this was about me. “I feel better thank you” I said with a smile, he seems to be quite nice and polite to me, unlike Dave who always seem to act like I was the origin to all his problems. I was also sure Luca was not directly related to Aryan and his evil dealings. From what I heard they are friends, Lucas could be why you would call Aryan personal doctor and Lucas has nothing to do with the deaths Aryan was involve with, I felt safe allowing him employ
Today is The day I was officially declared fit and healthy to go back home. Today I was been discharged and though it meant I was okay, I did not feel fine at all because of the worry I could not eliminate. I felt like something really bad would happen today between Aryan and Blair. Aryan was the first to arrive as he was told earlier this morning that they would keep me for a last checkup just to be sure that I am fine, and the checkup would last until noon. He walked into my room pushing a wheelchair with him and Dave followed closely behind, it was obvious they both came from the office and I could see the wheelchair was new. “Hello princess” Aryan said gleefully as he greeted me, it almost seemed as if he was the one been discharged today instead of me, he looked genuinely happy. “Aryan that is unnecessary, I am capable of walking on my own” I said to him as he arranged the chair close to my bed and came for me. That was not entirely true, yes I could walk no doubt but I ha
Odessa saw Aryan was just as he imagined. very handsome and though he knew she did not feel anything for him he still could not help but admire his beauty from afar. In the dream she reached out to touch his shoulder, only to find that there was no skin on it. His breath caught at the thought of such a thing. Her long flowing hair was dark with streaks of green interspersed among them and her eyes were large, brown, innocent looking pools filled with kindness and concern. When she looked back at him a small smile came over her face“I am sorry” she said and turned away from him, “I have been told you are a bad man, and I don’t want that kind of life”He tried to reach out again, but his hands phased through her“No” the girl said, and her voice seemed to resonate inside of his head, causing him pain, she sounded like a song, like a sweet voice singing a sweet melody, he wanted to know more about her “you are a bad man who has hurt other people and I will always be worried about what y
If you killed him I swear...” “You will what!?” He shot back at me cutting me off as he came even closer, I leaned back further into the ground in fear“I really do not see what you all see in him, he is a common rouge, a gangster” “And you are a serial killer” I had no idea why I was attacking him, I knew antagonizing him was wrong but I could not help myself, I knew he had done something to Aryan and I felt like hitting him or somethingHe laughed dryly to my accusation “Aryan have killed more people than I have or ever will, he has started gang wars and wiped out entire families and bloodlines for his own selfish reason and you call me the bad guy?” He scuffed “You are really like her! Always defending him and indulging him”I had a feeling he was talking about their mother“What did you do to Aryan!?” I demanded, I know I was going to die irrespective and did not care about my tone. “He is fine but the tail he put on you, now that is a different story but about Aryan don’t wo
The last few weeks have gone smoothly, Blair had even found them a home and they both have visited it, Odessa loved the place as the space was enough for them both to live in, so without a second thought she bought the place, they then decided to decorate it to suit their needs and so the employed an interior decorator to suit that need while they waited. After extensive remodeling the interior decorator finally called that she was done and that this weekend they both intend to move in. meanwhile Elliott was executed, the day it happened Vivian cried out her eyes and even passed out and because of that I had to move in with them and Blair followed to keep me company, I kept her company and tired to lighten her mood, if took a while but gradually it got improved, even more so I accepted to be their CEO on the clause that if I believe it was not fit for me I would quit which they both agreed, Vivian was happy I accepted the role and both Vivian and Andrew showed me the ropes. With ti
Aryan ended his call as he looked shocked and angry all at once after just reviving the call. Dave looked at him from the rear view mirror “Is everything sir!?” He asked as he noticed the scowl on Aryans face, he knows Aryan do well and can tell when he is angry“We are being attacked” Aryan said simply but Dave knew exactly what he was taking about, infact he fear this might happen and he knew what caused this “What!” He asked in shock, still shocked they had the nerve to outrightly attack Aryan, everyone the the underworld knew he was ruthless especially to those who undermines his authority, provided you know your place Aryan was always willing to allow you do your business despite being an enemy but cross him and he would not just kill you but wipe out your entire generation and name, that was how he operated, he was known as the Legacy destroyer and so if you are willing to defy him you should be okay with not just kissing your life but those who bear your name and blood. “T
“Your stories had loads of loopholes and as much as I tried sweeping it under the carpet, it just kept staring into my face. The night of the murder, Jones was at your place, and left after the murder took place, helping you make it seem like it was a break-in attack.” the detective pointed out, bringing out her phone from her pocket.“That was the CCTV footage that showed Jones leaving your place at exactly 11:05 pm, on his bike after the murder, a few minutes to when the police made their way here.” The footage showed a dark figure on a motorbike driving out of the compound.“Impressive, you're not so dumb after all,” Hazel said with a dark chuckle. “Please carry on.”“Our investigations led us to the fact that Mr. Harold isn't your real father Hazel.” The detective deadpanned, watching Hazel's eyes go widened in large saucers.“Oh please, don't act like you weren't aware.” The detective rolled her eyes.“You discovered this at one of your drunken mother's sprut, where she mistakenl
