LOVE IN SHADES CHAPTER 28: WORRIED
AUSTIN'S POVI got out of bed and the first thing I did was look for Adrian but he was nowhere to be found in the room. I remembered everything that happened between us and the fact that I literally forced him into it so I wasn't angry at him at all. If there was someone I hated for the situation, it would be those fuckers that kidnapped me and brought me to that place. I put on my clothes and walked out of the room to check if he was in his room but to my surprise, he wasn't there either and when I was just about to call him, I saw the woman that brought us to the room last night. "Ma'am, did you see that guy?" I asked her directly. She looked at me for a moment before she smiled "You mean your friend?" She asked back and I rolled my eyes. "Not my friend. The guy I came with last night." I hated to call him my friend after what he did to my family and seeing someone call him my friend annoyed me to the core. The woman frowned "If he isn't your friend. Is he your boyfriend then?

AUSTIN'S POV "You should probably check your pocket very well or something. Wait, did those kidnappers take your phone?" The head of maids asked worriedly but I shook my head. I didn't think they would do such a thing. They looked rich enough to me and they weren't people who would take others phones. All they wanted was my money, they weren't even bothered about my background or anything else. "I should check where I spent the night maybe it would be there. Get someone to prepare another car for me, I need to change these clothes." I ordered before leaving for my room. Later, I went back to the inn where I saw my phone on the bed and we went from there to pick up my car before we returned home. On the way, I placed a call to Adrian, informing him that we needed to meet later in the evening and he agreed without questions. "Would you like to eat now?" One of the maids asked and I shook my head. Even though I was trying to pretend like I was alright, I knew I wasn't and food was

AUSTIN'S POV I jolted up from my seat and looked at him. When I saw him standing up, ready to leave, I was very happy as that was what I wanted him to do but hearing that gunshot, my heart jumped and the first thing I did was drag him back. "Austin! I know you're in there!" I suddenly heard a voice and I frowned. Was that my Austin or was it someone else bearing Austin?"Did you hear that?" Adrian asked and I nodded. "Yeah, but I don't think it's my Austin. How would I know people who use guns?" I asked Adrian coldly. How could he ask me that? It seemed he really wanted me to die!He shook his head "No matter what, you need to hide right now. We can't say if it's you or not." He advised, holding my hand but I threw his hand away and pushed him out of my way. "It can't be me!" I yelled at him. All my life, I had been living quietly with only two aims and that was to avenge my father's death on Adrian and to make my mother happy again. So, how on earth would I have gotten involved
Last Updated : 2024-03-18LOVE IN SHADES CHAPTER 31: CONFUSION AND FEAR
AUSTIN'S POVI had no idea who was dragging me but I knew I had to follow the person. I found it hard to open my eyes as the fear in my heart was so huge, it was blinding. "Run! Run faster, Austin!" I heard a familiar voice in front of me and my face scrunched up. Adrian? I quickly opened my eyes and that was when I saw that we were in a room and he was already running in a direction "Will you continue waiting there until they break down the door and get to you? Are you really okay with dying here?" He asked me angrily as he glared at me. I was confused, I had no idea what was going on but before I could think about anything more, I heard the door cracking and I knew right then that the door would soon be broken. I quickly composed myself and ran toward Adrian "Where are we going?" I asked him quietly. "While I was here earlier, I tried looking for where I could escape from and that was when I found out about the underground building here. We just need to push away this thing a
Last Updated : 2024-03-18LOVE IN SHADES CHAPTER 32: A THREAT
AUSTIN'S POV Adrian pushed me away and held his lips "What was that?" He asked angrily. The look on his face was as if he was ready to give me a hard punch in the face. I smirked and pulled back, truth be told, I had no idea why I kissed him either and I knew I still had to think about the reason later but right then, there was something I needed to do. "I kissed you. Didn't you want it too? Why did you respond to the kiss if you didn't want it?" I asked him and he snorted. "You think I want you?" He asked with a mocking voice and I raised my brows. "Yes, You do," I replied arrogantly. "You wish. The first time we had something, it was you who instigated it. You forced me to your bed, Austin. The second time? You forced me again and you think I want you? Why would I?!" He yelled aggressively. I stared at his face for a few seconds and an evil smile appeared on my face "Let's see you pretend again after this." I provoked as I grabbed his collar and pulled him in. I looked at h
Last Updated : 2024-03-18LOVE IN SHADES CHAPTER 33: UNEXPECTED THREAT
AUSTIN'S POV I couldn't believe my ears even when he was done saying the rubbish he just said. I looked at him without saying a single word for a while and I started laughing. "Wait, are you planning to become a comedian? What was that?" I asked, still laughing. "I don't know if you've forgotten or not but you and I are not friends and we never will. So, stop this silly prank and close that door before those men get here." I urged him desperately while also making sure he never found out the desperation in me. I was scared, so scared out of my wit but more than that, I needed to make him close the door because I knew the gunmen might have heard him when he shouted earlier and they might be on their way to us already. "What? Comedian? Let's see if you're right or wrong." He said as he took a few steps out of the room. "Hello! Austin Brad is here!!! Austin Brad is here!!!" He started shouting without stopping and my heart nearly stopped. I ran toward him but he held the knives out

AUSTIN'S POV "Is he the friend you talked about?" One of the policemen asked. "Yes. He is. He was the one in danger. Those jerks wanted to kill him." Adrian explained to them. "Oh! But... I sent you a message that we arrested the gunmen about ten minutes ago, why didn't you come out since then and why were you holding a knife?" One of the policemen asked again and my eyes twitched. "Yes... I thought One of them might be lurking around so I wanted to protect my friend." He replied and the policemen all nodded their heads. "That was brave of you." They said and walked toward me. "Are you alright? Hope you weren't injured?" A man walked over and asked. I looked at all of them as if I was watching a movie. It was hard for me to believe what was going on, it was so hard to believe that I had been tricked by Adrian and he had used my weakness against me just like that!I made my way toward him and stood in front of him "Tell me what I'm thinking right now is not correct. Tell me it's
Last Updated : 2024-03-18LOVE IN SHADES CHAPTER 35: CRAZY
ADRIAN'S POV Nothing had been more complicated than what I did today before in my life and I had no idea how that would affect my relationship with Austin from then on. I knew he hated me more after what I did but for forced me to. After he called me and asked us to meet at the Cafe, I told my friends and they were all excited for me, thinking he wanted to ask me out and finally ask me to explain what happened back then so we could clear the air and be together but not only did he not want to hear anything, he even humiliated me and made me feel like trash. When I ran away, I wanted to escape alone but I lost my mind the moment I realized he was in danger and the only thing on my mind was how to get him out which was why I opened the door, dragged him in and closed it back. I led him into the underground building to help him escape only to find out that he already knew I liked him and he was going to continue using that against me, playing me like I was a toy.If I wanted to win h

LOVE IN SHADES CHAPTER 98: [THE END& BEGINNING]
KELVIN'S POV "What do you plan to do for the new year festive? Will you finally propose to Linda?" I asked Tine, who had been on his phone for the past few hours even though we were at a party. "I'm editing the pictures I took of Austin earlier. I need to post them later at night," He replied, still not raising his head. I frowned slightly, "I'm not asking about Austin's picture. Austin has enough workers who help with this. You are not needed. I'm asking about your plan for the new year festive. Will you finally ask Linda out?" I asked again, feeling a little annoyed. Tine finally raised his head and turned off his phone. His eyes wandered around the party, searching for someone - Searching for Austin..."Who is Linda?" He asked coldly. There was not a hint of interest in his tone. My frown deepened. "We both know that girl likes you. Why are you doing this? It's time you give love a chance," I advised, looking at his face. Tine finally turned to look at me, but his eyes weren'
LOVE IN SHADES CHAPTER 97: THE PARTY
ADRIAN'S POV Austin was pleasantly surprised when he saw me, and he took my hand in his. He led me out of the encirclement of his fans and led me to a quiet area. "You came," He whispered, kissing the corner of my lips. I replied with a nod, staring at his face with a frown. "You really have the guts to act like nothing is wrong?" Austin made a confused face and held my hand, "What's it, baby? Have I done something wrong? Tell me, I will make it up to you," He mumbled, pressing in for a kiss that was swiftly avoided. "You shouldn't waste your time with me here. Those babes are waiting for you right there," I pointed to the ladies who were staring at us and crossed my legs, not wanting to pay attention to him. Austin kissed my forehead and gently cupped my face, "You are the only one who deserves my attention, and you know this," He assured me, his voice calm and hypnotizing. I gave him a side glance and pursed my lips, "Really?" "Hey, what are you guys doing here? Everyone is
LOVE IN SHADES CHAPTER 96: KNIGHT'S PARTY
ADRIAN'S POV Within a few hours, I was able to edit the project draft and submit it to my stepfather, who looked at the screen with delight on his face. "This is wonderful. How did you suddenly get the inspiration to finish?" He asked, his face showing his delight. I blushed secretly, unable to tell him how it came to be. "I just suddenly found it easy and did it," I lied through my teeth, smiling sweetly. My stepfather spent a few more minutes on it, nodding his head every second. "You've done well. We can make do with it and submit it. I hope you won't turn down my offer anymore," He said, looking at my face. I let out a deep breath and nodded in response, "If we can get this contract with my proposal, I will surely accept your proposal," I assured him. I wouldn't compromise. If we were to lose the contract, I would work harder to win another one, and until I win one, I would never accept the position he offered me. Not because of anything but because I knew I wouldn't be capa
LOVE IN SHADES CHAPTER 95: A YEAR LATER
AUSTIN'S POVA year had passed since the incident and I had become a graduate. The ceremony for making me the chairman of my conglomerate had been scheduled for a week from now..."What about Cynthia? She's still stuck on you for more than a year now. What do you plan to do with her?" Tine asked, crossing his legs as he looked at me. I shrugged, sipped my wine, and gently rubbed the ring on my finger. "I don't care about her. She can continue doing whatever she wants. I told her a year ago that I didn't have any feelings towards her. I don't know what she's up to, trying to act like there's something between us," I replied. There was an ounce of disgust showing in my tone. If not for the guilt I still felt toward her kidnapping back then, I would have dealt with her in a way she would regret. I never expected her to be this kind of woman but she had used the past few months showing me how lowly she could be..."I heard she posted a picture about you and her entering a hotel togeth
LOVE IN SHADES CHAPTER 94: WAKING UP AGAIN
ADRIAN'S POV I helped Austin up the seat, and we both left the room. My heart ached terribly, and I felt miserable. I knew Austin was in deep pain; my heart ached badly, too, and I wished I could share his pain, but there was nothing I could do..."Adrian Smith!" A deep and scary voice suddenly sounded behind us, and my heart skipped a beat. Turning around, I saw a man pointing a gun at us with a smirk on his face. "This fool came to us to save you, and we had planned to only kill you after he's been killed. Who would have imagined that you would come here to die even before he died?" The man asked, laughing. "After so many years. You bastards can finally pay for your fathers' sins and go to hell!" He yelled. I clenched my fist as I looked at the man with deep hatred in my eyes. "Die for our fathers' sins. What did our fathers do?" I asked angrily. He laughed again, "You don't know. Not only did they exterminate our people back but also in the name of righteousness. They also ar
LOVE IN SHADES CHAPTER 93: RESCUE 2
ADRIAN'S POV "Let's go. I know where Austin is! I know where he's been taken to!" I shouted and without waiting for them to say anything, I rushed out of the house. They all followed after and we soon packed ourselves into the car again. "Go to this place!" I handed my phone to John, who immediately checked the location. "Austin left a code on his laptop, which only the two of us understand. This place is somewhere his dad used to take us back then when he was still alive. It was a training ground for us back then and because he was better than I am, he was number 1, while I took number 5. Austin left 1- 5 on his laptop's screen. The only thing it could mean is that place. That means he knows where he is and he's been expecting me to save him for the past few days. I can't believe I had no idea what was going on! I can't believe this is happening!"Why? Why was I so dumb? Why didn't I think about him getting kidnapped when I didn't see him for days? Why did I continue with the stupi
LOVE IN SHADES CHAPTER 92: RESCUE 1
ADRIAN'S POV I held my chest as I spurted out a mouthful of blood and weakness washed over my body. "Adrian!" My mother's panicked voice rang in my ears, but it sounded so distant. "Adrian, are you okay?""Adrian, Adrian!"The voices of the people in the room kept ringing in my ears, but they were too far away. I could feel my consciousness dwindling, and before I knew it, everything turned dark...Opening my eyes, I felt weak and exhausted. "Where am I?" I asked, staring around, but there was nothing in sight. A smile played on my lips, "It seems I'm dead. I can finally go find Austin," I mumbled. "Silly boy. What did you just say? Will you leave your mother behind and die just to see Austin?!" A loud and scary voice sounded beside me, making me turn my head with dissatisfaction on my face. Seeing the figure, I immediately realized it was my mother, and the first thing that hit me was immense sadness that caused blood to rush to my throat. I spat out a mouthful of blood and col
LOVE IN SHADES CHAPTER 91: THE MESSAGE
KELVIN'S POV I turned around to look at Knight, whose gaze was on me and my lips gently parted, only to swallow back the next moment. I subconsciously moved closer to Knight, and our eyes only had each other. I could see the desire in his eyes, which didn't lose to mine. I gently sucked in a deep breath, closed my eyes gently, and forced my eyes back to the drama. Knight and I weren't even dating. The first time was a mistake, so something like that shouldn't happen again!I firmly said to myself and fixed my eyes on the drama, but not even a second had passed when the drama leads turned to Knight and I... Knight was furiously rendering me helpless under him while I moaned hard, without any restraint. My body suddenly jerked mercilessly, and my face turned all red. I tried not to, but my head slowly turned to face Knight, and just like earlier, he was staring at me too. He moved closer to me, and without saying a word, he took my lip with his, kissing me gently. He sucked on my l
LOVE IN SHADES CHAPTER 90: HOME DRAMA
KELVIN'S POVI stared at the movie ticket in my hand, my heart racing and my feelings heavy. It was already more than a week since Knight had apologized, and we had gotten close, but this was the first time we'd been meeting since then. He had called earlier today, inviting me to watch a movie with him, and even though I wanted to turn him down, I had found myself agreeing without thinking much, which was extremely weird. I sucked in a deep breath, deciding to keep away the thoughts for a moment and look for an excuse to leave when Knight returned from where he went to buy popcorn. "Kelvin!" Knight's voice sounded behind me, and turning around, my eyes met his. Taking in his whole physique, I felt my cheeks burning for a moment before I forcefully calmed down and closed my eyes gently. "I must have kept you waiting for long. I'm sorry," He said softly, his voice as warm as summer. My eyes shone brightly, and I revealed a smile. "It's okay. I didn't wait for long," I calmly repl
