Lovers & Liars Chapter Thirty Seven: He looks familiar
*Liam*FEW HOURS AGO “What do you mean Vivienne went missing?” I thundered as I stormed into the underground room. Julian stood to his feet on sighting me and dug his fingers into his hair, a deep sigh escaping his lips. “The GPS tracker and her phone simultaneously went off at the same time,” he explained. “And we are unable to get a hold on Eric too.”I walked past him and looked at the screens. “Where was their last location?” I asked him.“An alley located in a street downtown,” he answered.An alley?I braced my hands on the table, my fingers bunching into fists. Who could have taken her and why? My mind raced with different possible people that could have done this. Oliver? His question about Vivienne crossed my mind and I shot up straight, my brows furrowing. “Can I see the route that Oliver took before coming over to the charity run?” I asked, turning to Julian. He nodded and swung into action, his fingers flying across the keyboard as he pulled up a special mapping app.

*Vivienne*He is angry with me. He looks like he is angry with me. Pressing my lips into a thin line, I sneaked a quick glance at him seated across from me, his gaze focused outside the car window. My eyes fell to the hard set of his jaw and yup… looks quite angry if you ask me. I adjusted in my seat and cleared my throat. “Have you heard anything from the hospital that Eric and his sister were taken to?” I started, trying everything to get rid of the awkward air between us. His head swiveled in my direction, his eyes locking with mine. “Yes, they underwent surgery an hour ago,” he answered and returned his gaze back to the window. “I will pay for the surgery,” I offered with a sense of guilt. “You don't have to,” he retorted, his tone clipped. “The bill has already been paid for.”I clamped my mouth shut, my teeth digging into my lower lip. “I just wanted to pay for the damages that I have caused,” I mumbled to myself, my fingers tightly knotted together. I don't think I have
Lovers & Liars Chapter Thirty Nine: Crossing the line
*Vivienne*He went completely rigid when I kissed him and alarm bells went off in my head. God damnit, Vivi! What was I thinking?With embarrassment consuming my inner self, I pulled away and firmly pressed my lips together. “I'm so sorry about that,” I apologized. “I just wanted to…”The words were snatched out of my mouth when Liam just cradled my face and pulled me back into the kiss. This time around, I moaned without restraint as he molded his soft mouth to mine, exploring the sensual contours of my lips. He snaked his hand around my waist and used it to pull me onto his lap. I leaned into him, my arms sliding up his chest to wrap around his neck as I gently rocked my hips against his pelvis. Liam groaned deep in his throat and slowly sank his fingers into the thick mass of my hair while his other free hand found its way to my throat. He opened his mouth over mine, urging my lips to part and the moment they did, he plunged his tongue inside my mouth. A broken moan escaped my
Lovers & Liars Chapter Forty: An incoming gift
*Vivienne*As I slowly surfaced from the depths of sleep, the soft rustling of fabric was what gradually pulled me from my dreams. My senses stirred, and I blinked against the gentle morning light flooding the room.A small smile pulled at my lips as delicious memories from last night drifted lazily through my mind. I recalled waiting for Liam but later ended up falling asleep before he could get back. He must have carried me to his room because I was currently lying in his bed. I turned to his side of the bed and then frowned when I noticed it was empty. I reached out and touched his pillow which was now cold. He must have either gone out early or he didn't sleep here at all. I sighed and sat up, the blanket slowly slid down to my exposed cleavage which only made me aware that I was still naked. “Good morning,” an unfamiliar voice said. I yelped and jolted upright, my heart racing. My eyes widened as they landed on an older woman moving about the room. Her silver hair was neatly
Lovers & Liars Chapter One: The Club
*Vivienne*The flashing neon bulbs, the heavy music booming from hidden speakers and the entire hyped up atmosphere were all beginning to give me a serious headache, and I was already on the verge of breaking into a full-blown panic.Clubs.Fuck! What the hell was I even thinking? And so what if this place is new and apparently popular with the people of Los Angeles? I wasn't a club kind of girl. But somehow, I had allowed my employees to drag me to the club on a Monday night nonetheless. I seriously must have lost my mind.Still on that thought, I suddenly lurched forward as my body jolted with the impact of someone bumping into me from behind. I quickly braced my hands on the table in front of me and steadied myself.My jaw clenched as a heavy sense of deja vu descended upon me, making my body go so rigid and tight that it became a miracle I was still breathing fine.The faint voice of someone apologizing to me slowly receded into the background while I forced myself to breathe ste
Lovers & Liars Chapter Two: Her Hollywood lover
*Vivienne*It either had to be the sunlight streaming in through the windows or the unshakable eerie feeling that something was wrong that woke me with a start but, as I blinked my eyes open, it slowly dawned on me why.I was lying in an unfamiliar room— a hotel room from the looks of it. For a moment, I just froze on the bed, my mind slowly going into a destructive overdrive. Fuck… no! It can't be!Squeezing my eyes shut, I subconsciously willed and prepared my body for the onslaught of nausea and the smell of drugs but when nothing of that sort happened and intense silence greeted me instead, I had to force myself back to reality.My hands bunched into fits as I slowly remembered that I was going back to the past. The past that I swore never to go back to.Peeling my eyes back open, I silently took in my surroundings— I was still disoriented and unsure of how I had ended up here. The spacious room was decorated in warm, earthy tones, with rich wood furniture and plush bedding. A l
Lovers & Liars Chapter Three: It was an orchestration
*Vivienne*Acting impulsively, I reared back from the familiar stranger who was squatting in front of me. “Oh, sorry,” he apologized quickly, still wearing that cheeky grin. “That must have startled you.”He took a couple of steps back and away from me.“Liam Ryan Pryce?” Penny's breathy, awestruck voice came out as a wheezy sound.I swiveled my neck to look in her direction only to see Penny and Rosa frozen on the spot. Their eyes sparkling with unrestricted admiration and love as they gazed at the man in front of me.It was almost as if they were bewitched. The man then stood up, stretching to his full height and acknowledged them with a slight nod. “Ladies,” he said, his smile utterly disarming, and they gasped with delight. “Oh my God!” Rosa shrieked, her excitement evident before she slapped a hand over her mouth. “I…” she paused for a moment and then pointed to Penny and herself. “We are literally your biggest fans and we just finished watching your latest movie; Apex predat
Lovers & Liars Chapter Four: Damage control and responsibilities
*Liam*I pulled up to the foundation's headquarters in my sleek, black Tesla Model S, the tinted windows reflecting the morning sun. I stepped out, feeling the warm California air envelop me, and gazed up at the imposing structure. The building's grandeur never failed to impress me - a testament to our foundation's impact and influence.The Pryce Foundation Headquarters is a striking and iconic building located in the heart of downtown Los Angeles. Standing 15 stories tall, the building commands attention with its sleek, modern design and impressive scale. The exterior is clad in gleaming glass and brushed steel, creating a striking contrast against the surrounding older architecture.I stuffed my left hand into my pocket and walked towards the entrance, my footsteps echoing off the marble floors. “Good morning, Mr. Pryce,” Lexi James, my capable secretary, greeted with a bright smile. Her working tablet firmly clutched in her hand.“I have told you to stop waiting for me out here ev
