They all slumped down on the couch when they were finally done carrying all the bags up to their apartment. “Oh my, I'm so tired" Heather murmured as she laid her head on Kiara's lap. “Why are you both breathing harder than me when I was the one that did all the Job. You just carried one bag each" Kiara giggled at Levi's words. “You offered to help," Levi sighed. “I didn't know you were living in a three story building with no elevators. If you'd told me…." “You won't have carried us in your car? I take it back, Kiara, he's not a gentleman" Heather cut in then smirked at Levi when she saw the dread look on his face. It was obvious he liked Kiara so she was going to use that to their advantage. “That's not what I was going to say. Of course I'm a gentleman. You believe I'm a gentleman, right Kiara?" Kiara gave both of them weird looks then sighed before standing up. “I'll go bring the juice.'' When she left, Heather turned to
“Ughh, why am I the one that has to get the grocery?" Kiara complained as she pouted at Heather. “Because I got it last time. Besides, I'm having a manicure, I don't want it ruined. Just go, please" Heather pleaded with a pout and Kiara sighed. It was night time and they wanted to make pasta when they realized they didn't have any grocery whatsoever and neither of them wanted to go even though the grocery shop was just down the block. “Ughh fine" Kiara muttered as she grudgingly dragged herself to her room. She took out her bag then some cash before going out to meet Heather laying on the couch, watching TV. “Make sure to get the cookies and cream ice cream, thank you" Kiara scowled at her then scoffed before walking out of the apartment. She took a deep breath as soon as she inhaled the night air. The street lamps were on and there were a lot of people on the road which was nice at least. She hugged herself as soon as a cold breez
Kiara groaned slightly as she opened her eyes. She glanced and noticed she was laying down on her bed. She tried to sit up and Immediately winced. “Be careful, your injury hasn't healed" She turned to the voice and her eyes Widened when she saw Zane. “Zane? What are you doing here?" He sighed then moved closer to her and laid her back on the bed. “Don't move, okay?" She frowned then her eyes suddenly turned cold. “I asked why you're here. What are you doing in my house?" She questioned through clenched teeth. Before Zane could reply, Heather burst open the door then ran towards Kiara with tears in her eyes. “Oh Kiara, I should have never let you out on your own. I'm such a bad friend" Kiara shook her head as she patted Heather's back. “Don't say that. This could have happened anytime so don't blame yourself. Even if you came with me, you and I would have been shot. Do you want that?" Heather nodded then lifted up her head from Kia
Zane thought over it for a while then scoffed. “Maybe she felt too guilty and decided to hand the child over to his or her father. I don't know and I don't care. Let's just go home" Zane muttered then immediately climbed into his car, not wanting to continue the conversation but Daniel knew he wasn't just overthinking it. There was no way Kiara would ever abandon her own child. He remembered how she used to help all the orphans back at the pack. He needed to dig deeper into this. • By the time Kiara came out of her room, it was already night time. Heather rushed up to her with wide eyes as soon as she saw her. “What are you doing out here? You're not fully healed yet" Heather scolded and Kiara rolled her eyes before lifting up her shirt. “I am, see? I'm hungry so I decided to make myself some food" Heather shook her head then led Kiara over to the couch. “I've already made dinner so just sit your pretty ass down while I serve you
Liam and Daniel stood outside the cell listening as Zane poured out his frustration on those men that shot Kiara. Liam couldn't help but wince when one of the men screamed out in pain. “What the heck is up Zane's butt today? Is it because they attacked Kiara?" Liam questioned then turned to Daniel. “That and because he saw Kiara and Levi hug today" Liam eyes widened slightly then he whistled lightly and at the same moment, Zane walked out of the cell covered in blood and breathing heavily. He glanced at them before walking away. Liam gagged as they walked past the cell and saw the dismembered bodies on the ground. “So what did they say? Are they related to what happened with Michael and the rest?" Daniel asked as they walked out of the basement and into the main House. “It may seem so but I really didn't ask them any question" Zane muttered as he took off his shirt and Daniel sighed. “We brought them here for questioning, Zane. Now
Zane stared at Levi for a while then scoffed. “Did I just hear you say you love her?" Levi nodded with clenched jaws. “I love Kiara and I will pursue her" If staying away from Kiara was the only way Zane was going to invest in his company then that was it then, his father could do his worst. He wasn't giving up on Kiara. “Besides," Levi began, “Our relationship with Kiara should not affect or be brought into our professional relationship. This is a business between our companies and Kiara doesn't need to be involved" Zane just scowled at him. He loved her? “Kiara loves me" Zane stated with a smug look on his face. “And she'll never fall in love with you so give up while you're at it, Levi" But Levi just smiled then folded his arms. “Why do I feel like you're threatened by me, Mr Black?" Zane scoffed. “Me? Be threatened by someone like you?" Levi nodded. “I spend more time with Kiara than you have in years and she's more comforta
Kiara's shock into Rage. “What the fuck is your problem, Zane?" He smirked at her as he slowly climbed down the stairs. “I don't know what you mean, love" He could clearly see she was seething with anger and it just made him happier. This was going to be fun. “Did you have something to do with Heather's ticket getting canceled?" He nodded with a smile. “Well I didn't want anyone interrupting us on our Vacation and if I had told her my plan, she wouldn't have agreed so I did the most logical thing and don't worry, she'll get her money back" Kiara scoffed in disbelief. Logical? He thought this was logical? “If you think I'm getting on that plane with you then you need to get your brain checked because it's clearly defective" Zane winced playfully as he placed his hand on his chest. “Your tongue has gotten sharper over the last two years, love but I'm not complaining" She rolled her eyes then grabbed onto her luggage and was about to walk
Heather sighed as she suddenly felt lost. What was she supposed to do now, book another ticket? She sighed and was about to grab her luggage when she spotted Daniel and Liam. What were they doing here? She rolled her eyes and wanted to ignore them but they were almost never not with Zane and at that moment, he wasn't with them which felt suspicious. She glanced at the elderly woman beside her and asked her to watch over her luggage before walking over to them. “What are you both doing here?" She questioned sternly as she folded her arms. They turned to her and she narrowed her eyes when their eyes widened suspiciously. “Oh, you're still here?" She frowned at Liam's words and Daniel immediately kicked him from behind. “What he meant was, what are you doing here?" Heather rolled her eyes. “Cut the crap, What is going on? Don't tell me Zane has something to do with my ticket getting canceled" They didn't say anything which wa
