KIARA POV
And again it's that weird dream, it always starts with fire burning everywhere and someone screaming my name and when I try to look back everything gets so blurry and then I wake up. “Knock,knock! Kiara you have to wake up, you are going to be late for the meeting,” my elder sister Sofie called out from outside my room door. “I'm awake, Sofie, just give me 30 min to get ready.” “Okay just be quick cause father is already ready,” sofie replied. Today's the day for the meeting between the two major mafia groups in London. I, Kiara Blade. I'm about to attend a meeting with my father Leo Blade, the leader of the Blade Mafia family, in order to sign a marriage treaty with the new Mafia lord of the Darkwood society. “Father, do you honestly believe that the Darkwood would really accept this treaty even after the 15 years war we have had with them?” I asked silently as we were on our way to the meeting site. “Of course Kiara, they have no other choice since we have something they need which is the northern border for their business,” he replied. “But what if?” I uttered with a sigh of doubt. “Remember, his just a young new lord, so it should be easy to get this treaty done just remain calm and show no sign of fear,you know I only picked you for this because u are the most trained and strongest out of my daughters and I trust you won't fail me,” he said with a stern face. “Of course father I won't.” I nodded. I already know the main purpose for this marriage treaty is for me to be able to spy and discover the Darkwood society secrets and weakness and I am determined to do so. Few minutes passed and we arrived at the site waiting for the Darkwood Society to arrive. 2 hours passed and they were nowhere to be seen, at this point my father was already at his limit and was furious at their tardiness. “How dare this young man keep me waiting!” He shouted furiously. "Father, relax, you know this is unlike the Darkwood Society,they should be arriving soon,” I said trying to calm him down. Few minutes later they arrived, 5 black cars pulled up opposite ours and there he was the new Mafia lord of Darkwood coming down from the last one, he had dark slic hair and piercing dark emerald eyes and a very tall and muscular build. Standing from afar I could tell he was definitely more than 6ft, but that was not the shocking part, it was his chiselled chin and his piercing emerald eyes that seemed as if they could see deep into my soul. I had heard rumours of this man Xander Darkwood before of how he was handsome and most ladies in both mafia groups wanted to get in bed with him but I never paid it any attention. But wow, even I who had never given any man attention was stunned at his beauty .He noticed I was looking at him and gave a quirk smirk.I quickly removed my face so as to make sure my father notices nothing. “Good evening Leo Blade, sorry for my late arrival, I had an urgent matter to settle.” He stretched forth his hand to shake my father. “And a good evening to you Xander, I accept your apology just this once," Father answered with a stern face as he accepted the hand shake. We all then proceeded to enter the building to start the meeting of which we were all there for. As we were all seated now, an elder from the Darkwood Society stood up and started the meeting. “As we all know we are here to form a peace treaty between the Blade mafia family and the Darkwood Society, so as to open up the northern border in exchange for the Darkwood Society alliance,” he announced. “And what do we get in return?” a Blade mafia member asked. “Of course we promise to refrain from our attacks on the blade mafia family,” the Darkwood elder replied with a dark smile. The room was silent for a minute, then my father stood up to speak. “I have already accepted this marriage treaty and have brought my 3rd daughter here as she is to be the bride,” he said as he turned to look at me and stretched his hand so that I could get up. As I stood up I noticed how Xander, the man I was to get married to was deeply staring at me as if he wanted to devour me and then he stood up too and came towards me and my father. “And I would be the one to get married to her of course,” he uttered as he smirked. Honestly, I hated the way he smirks, it made me feel weak. I glared at him and he drew closer to me and bent to the side of my ear. “Is that anyway to look at your husband to be huh, my dear future wife," he whispered. And again I was stunned how his voice can make me this weak, I could not believe that a man I have never met before can make me feel this way. I answered sternly, “You are not my husband yet so I can look at you anyway I please.” He smirked again and then faced my father. “I accept this marriage treaty,” he said and then he shook my father. After that we all went back to our seats and other topics were brought up since the main one had been settled. It took about 2 hours for everything to be called to an end and then we were to leave to our various places, as my father and I were about to enter our car Xander appeared again to greet my father and again he stared at me. And again I felt that feeling of weakness I hate as he stared at me , it seemed like he was looking into my entire being and I could do nothing about it. He said his greeting to my father and then he made his way back to his car and left. Few minutes later, we also left and on our way back home my father spoke to me. “Kiara always remember that the man you saw today is your enemy and you must never show him your weakness or fall for his tricks," he said. “Of course father I won't,” I replied. And then we made our way back to the blade mafia family residence.XANDER POVI stared outside the car window watching the London night city, my mind wasn't on the city noise, but on her Kiara.It has been years, but finally I saw her again, my childhood friend. She still had that spark in her gorgeous golden eyes and she grew even more beautiful than I could have ever imagined.“Xander, Xander!,can you hear me?” lily page called out.“Yeah I can hear you, so what's the update on the traitor that betrayed us?”“He has been captured and is being brought in for questioning.” Lily stretched her hands to pass the paper files.“So Xander, is she really the one you have been looking for?”“ Yes, she is, honestly I wasn't sure after receiving the information before but after seeing her today I'm definitely sure she is the one.” I let out a soft laugh. “Hmm, how sure are you that they are not trying to trick you?” Lilly uttered.“Stop asking too many questions and focus on the work you have at hand Lilly." I said opening the door of my car.Already at the D
KIARA POV“Kiara,Kiara!!”“What?!” I shouted as I woke up from the strange dream again.“Ohh my God, not this same weird dream again,” I voiced out as I got up from my bed.These dreams just keep reoccurring lately and it's really just stressing me out. I have lots of things to prepare for and I seriously just want this annoying dream to stop.For some reason, it's been coming up more than usual ever since I was told about my wedding with the Darkwood leader.“Knock, knock, good morning ma’am I'm here to serve your breakfast,” a maid outside stated.“Take it back for now, I want to train first before eating, okay? ” I sat on my chair as I replied to her.“Sure ma'am, but is everything alright?" She asked in a worried tone.“I'm fine, I just need to clear my head before eating all that." “Okay ma’am.”I get why the maid sounded worried. Normally I would just eat breakfast now and then train midday but I really just needed to clear my head of these weird dreams with training this morni
KIARA POVFinally, it was the day of my wedding, sounds of preparation everywhere and some guests had begun to arrive.“Kiara quickly go have your bath, you know we are already behind time," Sophie let out.“Okay I'm going." I had my bath and came out, Sophie already brought the dress in and the dress was breathtaking.She helped into the exquisite gown, carefully securing each button of the dress.“You look gorgeous, Kiara.”My eyes sparkled as I saw myself in the mirror. “Thank you Sophie, the dress is perfect.”I honestly never cared about the dress I would wear but wow, the dress was beautiful, it completely flattered my petite figure perfectly, Sophie really must have gone beyond to get this dress.We spent a few minutes on the makeup and then it was time to wear the jewellery.“I can't wait for you to see the necklace, Kiara," Sophie voiced out as she walked towards me with the box and guided me to sit down.She wore the necklace on me and it was stunning, it was a golden neckla
KIARA POV It took about an hour for us to get to this mysterious location I know nothing about, it was a little villa along the ocean side and it was actually really peaceful.Now I see why he said somewhere with just us two because this place was dead silence, nothing to hear except the sound of waves in the ocean.We parked in front of the house and then the silence broke again.“So little princess, do you like it?” Xander asked as he faced me.Honestly the place was perfect, the villa and the view was just warm and welcoming but there is no way I'm gonna admit to that in front of him.“Well it's okay I guess," I uttered.He let out a light laugh and then he smirked again. Ahh! I seriously hated when he does that, it was like he sees me as a little girl.He got out of the car and then came towards my side to get it open for me. At Least he has been behaving as a proper gentleman since I got married to him.“I want to hear your reply again once you have seen the inside." He handed t
KIRA POV I obviously knew what he was talking about when he said it's his time to eat but I still wanted to play ignorant and try to escape the situation. “Well didn't you cook for yourself?" I asked, trying to play ignorant. "Ohh I did, dear and now I want to eat my dish.”he replied as he moved his hands up to my waist. “Okay then, let me leave you to it.” As I tried to escape from his grip he pulled me closer and held me tight. He then whispered softly into my ear,“now stop trying to act unaware of what I mean little princess okay.” I know we are married now and I was expecting this but now that it is finally time, I honestly just feel shy and I don't even have any romantic feelings for him. He suddenly kissed me and I was too weak to even withdraw. It was a slow but intense kiss, our lips slowly dancing with each other's, his hands caressing my waist and again I'm feeling weak in this man's embrace. It was like my whole body was drowning in his and then it became
KIARA POVAs I made my way downstairs I heard Xander's voice and it seemed he was on call.It sounded so serious and I knew at that moment that this was something I definitely wanted to report.I walked down a little making sure I was as quiet as possible so I could clearly hear what the discussion was about.“We have to find a way to get them to sign the business deal. Okay,we can't let them slip from us this time,” Xander said, still on the call.“You know we can't let this oil deal with the sharmans pass us by at a time like this, We need this to recover from the damage that traitor caused us recently,” he said with a stern voice.Ohh so that's what this about, I remember was it a month ago father talked about wanting to sign an oil deal with the sharmans but they said they had already found some other gang that match their full requirements.So the other gang was the Darkwood huh, but since they are having issues right won't it be a perfect time for the blade to swoop in, get the
KIARA POVIt was a private airplane specifically used for skydiving. I can't believe the surprise was a skydiving date. I was literally stunned. Not only that, but I could not believe that this man just planned a skydiving date within just a few hours after I told him that it was one of my most loved hobbies.I mean this was outstanding, but it was also crazy, I mean who just plans a skydiving date within hours and actually gets it done. Even my family would not be able to pull this off, it would take at least 4 days for them to get everything ready, this is just beyond words.“Surprising little princess,” Xander said.I was still amazed at what I was seeing and didn't bother to reply to him.Seeing how I was stunned, he then dragged me towards the airplane and then said, “stop staring and get inside.”We boarded the plane and then took off to air. I was so excited since it had been quite a while since I had skydived.There was only one instructor, since we both already knew how to sk
KIARA POV“Except whom,Kiara?” Xander asked.“Except Jake Don.” I said with a sign of annoyance.“Jake Don, you mean Marssel Don son, the future leader of the Don syndicate?” Lilly asked.“Yes, that Jake Don.” I responded. “But the Don's are an Italian Mafia, and they would not dare try such a thing in London,” Xander stated. “Well if the rumors I heard about Jake are right, this is something he can definitely do, there are rumors saying he is a crazy guy who isn't concerned with the repercussions of the thing he does,” Daniel said.“Yes, he is certainly crazy, I for sure know that,” I said.Xander faced me and asked“And why exactly does he want to have our heads and how do you know him?” “Because I'm his ex and the bastard kind of swore that he would kill any man I got close to apart from him after I had dumped him 6 months ago.”“What?!” Xander exclaimed.“I didn't really think he meant it, I can't believe he would actually try to kill me.”Honestly, I haven't seen the crazy guy
Xander POV I finally ended the music and as I turned, I saw Kiara, my wife staring right at me with tears in her eyes. I wondered how a woman could look so stunning with tears in her eyes.“Little princess, are you okay?” I asked as I liked her salty tears off her face and smiled.“ I'm fine, it's just that it was so beautiful and sad, and it was just so amazing, thank you, Xander, for showing me this art,” she said as she smiled widely.And at that instant I kissed her, I could not hold myself any longer and who would when she was just so beautiful with those teary eyes.I continued to kiss her, it was slow, intense as our body grew closer to each other, my hands sleeping right through her dress as I caressed her thighs.After an intense kiss, we both let go, and I just wished I could tell her the truth there at that moment. I want my Kiara back, the Kiara that was my childhood friend, but I know it's too early now.If I rush into things she would run away and might despise me even
Kiara POV The sudden trigger of the weird dream caused a serious headache at that moment that I had to scream.“Argh! My head,” I voiced out as I held my head bending down still in Xander arms.“Kiara are you alright?” he asked with a tone of worry.“ I'm fine, just slight head pain, that's all,” I responded as the sudden pain stopped.“Hmm, just a slight pain, huh?”Well, of course not, but I don't need him knowing that and just why exactly did I have a flashback of that annoying dream right now, the last thing I need is that dream coming up again.Just a few weeks without it and I fill so light already.“Yes okay, so stop looking at me so suspiciously, I'm fine, so this is where I'm going to train?” I tried to deviate from the former topic.“Yes it is, so do you want to get down and check it out or do you enjoy being in my arms so much?” he smirked as he asked.One minute he would rather not let me down and the next he wants to, this man should just pick one jeez And I can't belie
Kiara POV It took about 4 hours, and we finally stopped at a house or should I call it a mansion, But oh my was it beautiful, and it just seemed so soothing to me.I seriously wonder why the Darkwoods just love building massive houses in the middle of nowhere.Well, considering they are mafias it is a given to have secret houses but not one this huge.“So Xander, why exactly are we here?” I asked, facing him.“To continue our honeymoon that was well caught short,” he responded with a smirk.Ohh that's right, the stupid assassin that tried to kill me and those elders really can be crazy.Wait when he means continue does he mean_Before I could even finish my thought he suddenly grabbed me tightly and kissed me.I could feel the hunger in his kiss, it was fast and wild and slowly drowning my breath away.The kiss becoming more intense, his tongue gliding through mine, my body becoming so hot all I wanted at that moment was him in me.My entire thought filled with his body as he removed
Xander POVA few hours had passed, and I'm finally done with all the files that needed my signature and I had only one thing in my mind, Kiara.It's been so long. I had time with my wife, and now I'm here stuck with work and the next following week she would be out of my reach again.I, personally, would prefer if she just stayed here with me and let Nora settle the land deal, but the little princess I know would never accept that, especially after I tell her Nora will be responsible for the deal.She would definitely throw a fit if I asked her to stay, but I really would like to see her do that. It has been a long time since I pestered her.“Hmm we do have 5 days before she leaves, well then I guess it's time to go see my wife,” I said as I got up and made my way out of the office.“Xander are you leaving right now,” Lilly asked as she walked towards me.“ Yes, also good thing you are here, do make sure everything from today until next week is being handled properly since I'm putting
Kiara POV “Hey Sophie, I'm done speaking with Father,” I said as I walked towards her.“Ohh, hope it went well?” she inquired in a worrisome tone.If I tell her the truth she might practically start crying, so I rather not, I honestly just can't handle her tears.“Yeah, it went well, he wants that angry,” I responded as I smiled.“ That's great sis, so now it's finally time to her fun sister time,” she said as she held my arm and pulled me towards the exit of the house.“Okay but where exactly are we going Sophie,” I voiced out as she still pulled me and we ran.“Just trust and follow me okay, you will definitely love it,” she said as she smiled.Well, it has been long since I had fun and I genuinely missed my sister.“Okay, just stop rushing jeez,” I replied as I let out a little laugh, and then we made our way out of the Blade house.“So where exactly are we going Sophie, just tell me already,” I said as we both sat in the back of the car. “Well it's a surprise okay, just wait oka
Kiara POV “Good day, father,” Sophie said as the door closed behind us.“Good day to you Sophie, well then thank you for bringing your sister in, both you and Diane can excuse us now,” Father said.I honestly wished only would Diane leave and Sophie remained.Sophie gave me the good luck look and then made her way out, Diane, on the other hand, walked close to me and then whispered.“Good luck little sis, you really would need it this time,” she said as she let out a little mocking laugh and then walked out.As the door shut close, I could feel the tension in the room grow even more cold.“It's been long fathers, how have you been,” I asked trying to break the cold sir in the room.“ Is that really the first thing you say when you see me, you ask how I am?” he voiced out in anger.But shouldn't I ask how he was doing, I mean that's the right thing to ask first, he is my father, but he really is difficult to understand something.I'm pretty sure if I had start apologizing first, he wo
Kiara POVOkay, I take my words back, I definitely do mind, That man is a beast!As I tried to move my body, the scene from last night just kept coming back, I honestly can't believe that man did all those things to me. I'm even embarrassed to turn over to see if the man is still in bed with me, I honestly don't need to see that his smug face this morning after what he did to me.I'm just going to pretend as though I'm still asleep until he first leaves.“ Good morning little princess, I know you are awake, so just face me already,” Xander whispered softly into my ears as I tried to remain still.Jeez can't this man just let me fake my sleep in peace huh.I finally turned my back and for some reason his body looked more stunning than usual, seemed like he had been working out a little more.“Could you stop drooling over your husband body this morning huh, little princess,” he said as he carried me up, and I immediately realized that I had been staring.“ Can't a wife stare at her hus
Kiara POVIt's finally the day to leave Hawaii, no more nurses, doctors, the sickening smell of the hospital and most of all no more annoying chirping from the birds.But I am definitely more exhausted than excited honestly, it really has been a lot in Hawaii, but I'm pretty sure I'm going to face far worse when I settle back in London.I truly hope everything works out well at this point.I got up and got dressed, it's been a week now that I gained consciousness, I can move my arms far much better so getting dressed was not really an issue anymore.Heard a knock on the door and then asked,“who is it?”“Your amazing husband,” Xander responded, and I could just feel the smirk from the door already.“Yeah, okay, come in,” I replied as I sat.“Good Morning, little princess,” he said as he walked closer and then suddenly lifted me up.“Xander, put me down, jeez,” I voiced out.I still don't know where he finds the strength to easily lift me up, I know he's a Mafia lord but come on, he pra
Kiara POV A few days have passed now, and I'm finally able to move my arm a little and with far less pain than before.Xander also took the time to actually answer all my questions, technically during the past month that I had been asleep most of the snake gangs have already been captured by Mickey, seems like he really has been putting great effort into that, I honestly thought he was a bum most of the time but well I guess he has his uses.Also, my father was informed about the whole situation and knowing him, he must be furious and disappointed right now, I still can't believe I actually moved to save that idiot. And most of all I can't honestly believe a gunshot put me in a hospital bed for a entire month.My big sister Diane definitely must be laughing her head off about this entire thing, and Sophie must definitely be distressed.But I'm just glad I should be about to finally leave this hospital tomorrow and finally get back to London. I think I have enough Hawaii that I need
