XAVIER POV.

"Stone found one of our hideouts where some of our men were conducting business, Xavier, and he attacked them, he killed a lot of them but just like last time, we managed to kill some of his men too. He's probably going to report back to Belshar and he would know that we are still here"

Fuck! "What else do you have to report David" I asked as I finished cuffing Persephone to the platform I had set up and then leaned back to admire the work of my hand.

"We acquired new soldiers that are ready to join our fight. Most of them are men who have nothing to lose. They've been tested and proved themselves to be reliable" David Said and I smirked as I gripped the face of Persephone in my hand and examined it.

"I almost killed her you know," I said staring down at her, "But she came right up to me, stared me in the eyes, and told me to cut her head off, so I knocked her out and took her here instead" I got out, then glanced up at David. "I wonder just how shocked she'd be when sh

    CELINE HERRERA POV I didn't know what to feel after I left Antonia. Why would she look for me now, what could she possibly hope to achieve after staying away for so long? Mother suffered because of them so does she even deserve my forgiveness? If they hadn't abandoned us maybe she would have still been alive, and I wouldn't have suffered so much as I did in the hands of Delia and Grandfather because I would have had someone to protect me.I dragged my finger through my hair and let out a sigh."Should we go back to the company ma'am or are you going to make another stop?" the driver asked breaking through the turmoil going on in my head and I met his gaze through the mirror. "Let's head back to the company, I still have something to take care of," I answered and he nodded and started the car. We drove in silence, the car moving slowly through the traffic. I checked the time on my phone and paused when I saw that I'd gotten a message.It was from Belshar and I hastened to open and

    DELIA HERRERA POV Belshar had gotten her flowers; beautiful green roses that shone beautifully in the sun. I watched Celine blush, turn, and rush into the company building after they talked for a bit. The sharp pang of pain in my chest as I watched Belshar stare after her made it difficult to breathe."You always get to have the best things, don't you? Why does it have to be you all the time"Enoch was thinking about getting back with her, she was the company's CEO once again and it seemed that Belshar truly loved her. Would my plan with Kail even work? Was he even doing anything? Just how long was I going to wait? And do I truly only want a child from Belshar without him in my life or was that because I knew he hated me so much and I didn't know what to do to get him to like me even just a little bit? Taking a deep breath, I got out of my car instead of heading home like I'd intended and walked toward him. He noticed me approaching and my heart almost stopped as memories flashed

    DELIA HERRERA POV The El Salvador club was bustling with rich influential and good-looking people and as I took in the faces of the men walking around, I couldn't help but feel like I'd been missing out a lot. "Damn, it's been a while since I'd been here" I muttered to myself. This had been my most favorite place to spend my nights before I married Enoch. I'd been caged up for too long. When was the last time I even unwinded? Shaking my head, I looked around for Liam while covertly taking in the admiring gazes of the men around me. They were staring blatantly at me, their desire for me clear and I couldn't help but smirk."I guess I still got it" I muttered and flipped my hair. Belshar could only hate me for so long before he fell for my beauty. If I pretend long enough to have changed, he will warm up to me and when Celine dies at the end, I'll be his only shoulder to cry on. The bartender whistled as I stopped in front of him."Delia Herrera, what a pleasure to have you here wi

    CELINE HERRERA POV The roses were what my gaze was on, which was why I didn't see Julie turning away from the secretary and heading in my direction until we crashed into each other. Hard.A gasp escaped my lips as I fell to the floor, my eyes widening as I took in the damage the drink she had been holding that got crushed between us had done. The roses had been splashed and so had my dress. Julie was all over me in a second. "Oh, my goodness. I am so sorry, I didn't even see you" she rushed out as she took my hand and pulled me up to my feet. "Are you alright, I slammed into you pretty hard didn't I?" she asked and I nodded as I adjusted my dress and tried to clean away the residue of the drink. I noticed that two of the guards and the secretary were hovering around us, not quite knowing what to do to remedy the situation. "It's alright" I got out then gave them a dismissive wave. "I am totally fine. I'll just talk with Julie here, so you all can get back to your position" I said

    CELINE HERRERA POV "What are you..." I panicked as he started to give space between us."Fuck, this is so hard" he growled In frustration. I was more frustrated, but I guess he was much stronger than I was in this little game we were playing. He had more restraints.I didn't. I wanted him so bad, I literally burned with it. So without thinking, I twined my hands around his neck and pressed my lips to his.My action must have surprised him because he made a shocked sound against my mouth, but it only took a few seconds for his body to catch up with mine, his mouth pressing insistently against mine.I couldn't help but feel a bit of thrill that I'd managed to throw him off balance. I liked that I had the power to shock him, to make him unable to resist me. Me.His hungry hands constricted around my waist until there wasn't a breath of room between our two bodies. Until there was no denying the hot, hard length of him against my stomach or the wet heat pooling between my legs, scenting

    JULIE POV Delia was going to be pissed that our plan had not worked out but there was nothing to be done about it, besides it would have been very suspicious to offer Celine a drink right after reconciling with her. What happened was for the better. Not that I gave a fuck if Delia got mad. I am sure she has a lot of things to worry about at the moment. The video of her killing Bella being at the very top of that list.My phone pinged and I stared down at it. It was a video. A grin tugged on my lips as I hit play and the sound of Delia moaning as she got fucked over the table flooded my ear. The little bitch. Great, another thing to add to her worry list.Enoch had refused to believe that Delia was planning to sleep with Belshar for whatever reason known to her, but now he would know that I was telling the truth and that Delia didn't give two fucks about him. The thing about Delia was that she was obsessed with Celine. She didn't know it but she was. And it wasn't a recent thing ei

    CELINE HERRERA POV The ride was filled with tense silence and every time I glanced at Belshar, I could tell that he was in deep thought. I didn't know how to feel or what to do to make the atmosphere playful like it had been since we went to the beach. He was facing away from me, choosing to stare out the window, probably because he didn't want to look at me.The heated moment we shared in my office was still fresh in my head. I could also remember the moment that ruined it all. I'd almost blurted out that I loved him but stopped at the last second but I was certain Belshar knew that I'd almost confessed.I'd hurt him even without meaning to. Was he pissed off? How the hell did I want to go about seducing someone who was in a bad mood anyway?I glanced down as his hands flexed on his thighs, the veins on his arm making me swallow. my eyes strayed to the center of his parted leg and a soft gasp escaped my lips as I stared at the prominent bulge tenting his pants. My cheeks heated up

    CELINE HERRERA POV I looked up at him through my lashes. "I thought we were only going to be having dinner... Why the sudden serious atmosphere" I said, pulling my hand away from him. I leaned forward, my cleavage on display. "You shouldn't ruin such a good moment Belshar" His jaw clenched and he gripped the fork in his hand tightly. "Celine" he hissed, warningly and I arched a brow."Why, I gave you a chance to make me fall for you didn't I... It's only right that I get to seduce you too"Slowly, teasingly, I took hold of the sash of the robe I was wearing and pulled it off, letting it drop to the floor. I got to my feet, letting the robe part, and watched as he sucked in a sharp breath.His reaction made me all the more bolder as I walked toward him, shedding the robe in the process.The material of the lingerie was almost transparent and I knew he could see everything I had to offer."You didn't quite get to finish back at the office. I think we should take care of that, besides,

I had to give it to the guy called Victor Stakov though. He was good. Two attacks in one day. Who would have thought?I hadn't even been given a chance to struggle before I got shoved into the black van and a needle was jabbed into my neck that had me passing out in secondsThe only downside to this whole bullshit was that they had taken Karen too. I knew because I'd been holding her hand when I came face to face with them.My hands balled into fists, the rope tied around my wrist digging into my flesh.Fuck! They better not touch her.

    KAIL NESSAR ABED POV "Victor stakov" the man gasped, blood spurting from his mouth. "It was Victor Stakov," he shouted, then screamed when I pressed the branding rod against his skin.The sizzling sound and the smell of burning flesh filled the room, everything mingling to create an atmosphere charged with an intensity that made my blood surge through my veins as if I were riding out a high God I missed this. How long had it been since I last tortured anyone? I'd made a lot of coffee and cakes to keep myself occupied but it was always so monotonous. It got boring too. This. This was exactly what I needed. Dropping the rod onto the burning coal, I raked my hand through my hair and stared down at the man on the table. His body was covered with my brand, his skin bruised and burnt.It was a work of art, really, but there were still some spaces that I hadn't marked, and my fingers itched to pick up the rod and fill it up."Please" he gasped, spitting out more blood. "Don't kill me. I

    BELSHAR NESSAR ABED POV My heart was in my throat. Fuck! I slammed my hand on the steering wheel. I was speeding through the highway but I didn't care. I should have known that something like this was going to happen. "Argh" I roared, my hand clenching on the steering wheel. "I'm going to make you pay bastard"Just how was Celine feeling right now? My heart raced with every terrible scenario, Fear clawing at my chest, its icy grip suffocating me. I couldn't breathe, couldn't think, couldn't fucking wrap my mind around the fact that she had almost been hurt.I watched it all happen too.I veered off the road, my tires screeching as I turned a sharp corner. Kail's cafe loomed in the distance.When I arrived at the spot, I noticed that the car the hitmen had used was still parked out front. The windows were shattered and bullet holes riddled the door. My hands trembled, the rage in my chest suffocating. The guards were still standing around. Their greeting went unheard as the roaring

    CELINE HERRERA POV Belshar still wasn't saying anything. Anytime I got a picture, I asked him about his day, hoping that he was going to tell me about the girl and why he was meeting up with her but each time I asked, he just told me how work went and how boring everything was while skipping out the most important thing I wanted to know about.There were six pictures so far, and I was starting to get angry. It all came with messages too. Messages that ruined my day every time I thought of them.Was it a reporter sending the images? Are they going to call soon to demand money or threaten to release the picture?They probably wouldn't, especially since the photos were not that incriminating.The most intimate one was the first picture I got and that was because the lady had been in a bathing suit.I dragged my finger through my hair and then sighed. "Should I just ask Belshar about it?" We had real enemies to worry about, so why was I allowing this to chip away at me? What was I so af

    VICTOR STAKOV "I don't think our plan is going to work out, "Gabby got out as she strode toward my desk. "No, I know it is not going to," she said, stopping in front of me. She leaned toward me, her hands slamming down hard to get my attention. "Belshar is being very difficult"I glanced up from the laptop in front of me and then flipped it close when she arched a brow. Exhaling roughly, I inched close to her. "How many times are we going to go over this, Gabby""As many times I meet up with him and he ignores my very existence"I pinched the bridge of my nose. "Give it time, it's going to work. You're just too impatient for your own good""No, that's not the case this time. It's been two weeks. Two weeks of trying my damned best to get his attention. We've met a total of six times and I am still not close to getting his attention as at the start""You told me he spoke with you the last time you pretended to run into him at a conference""He also spoke to other women there," Gabby s

    CELINE HERRERA POV "What's wrong. You look pale" Victoria noticed, her eyes flaring in concern.I shook my head and dropped my phone. "Nothing, I just got a message from Belshar that's all. I think he will be home late today""You don't have to look so sad just because he's staying out, I am here to keep you company am I not"I forced a smile. "Yeah, but you're not Belshar"She rolled her eyes. "I don't know what I do at this job of mine. I'm just getting paid for doing nothing""Isn't that the dream job?"She grinned. "It is, but sometimes I need to feel the adrenaline from working hard at something"I shook my head. "You are so weird," I said, then reached for the fruit and popped one into my mouth. It didn't taste good, not with the image I'd seen replaying in my head over and over again.Why had he gone to the beach? What was he doing with her?Did they know each other from before? He hadn't even looked at her at the restaurant. Was that all a facade?God, my brain hurts just thi

    CELINE HERRERA POV "I think Kail is stalking me," Karen said and I glanced up at her. "What?""I don't know Celine... I feel like I've been running into him a lot lately""Define a lot""Like every day of this past week. He runs a cafe so how is that even possible? Just how much time does he have to be going around like that, and that too everywhere I go? We don't have the same bloody schedule." She turned to face me, her back resting against the railings. "Do you think I am being paranoid""No, I don't think so," I said since it was Kail we were talking about. Just because he turned a new leave and was acting like a saint now didn't mean that he hadn't once been the epitome of all things evil. Also, I'd noticed the way his gaze had been on Karen the last time we were at his cafe. He'd stared at her as if he was trying to see into her soul.Karen pushed away from the railing. "Should I be worried? I can't imagine what he could want from me""I think he likes you," Victoria chipped i

    BELSHAR NESSAR ABED POV"Do you have anything to report?" I asked Christian. The words that Victor had said to me a week ago rang in my head, leaving a bitter taste in my mouth. It had been a threat. Was he going to target my wife? My fist clenched. "There is nothing so far. All Victor does is work and attend conference meetings. He's been creating a network for his business that has started to work from how much progress he made this week, but rest assured, all eyes are on him"Was that what he was hoping for? For all of my attention to be on him while he worked in the shadows to strike those closest to me."I want you to plant a mole in his mansion. I need to know what goes on when he's alone in his house.""Already working on that. We'll have inside information soon.""Celine has been home for a while now, but she's going to get bored as time goes on, so assign more bodyguards to her whenever she gets the urge to go out""Yes boss"I let out a rough exhale, then glanced up at Chris

    CELINE HERRERA POV I was out with Belshar, and the Sky looked so blue that I couldn't help but feel a little thrill as I gazed up at it."Nice weather, huh?" he asked as he took my hand in his.I nodded. "It's really nice""We just have to walk for a few minutes and we'll be at the restaurant. The doctor said you need to walk more than you already do""Do we have to do everything he says"He grinned. "We don't want to give that man a heart attack, so let's just follow his advice, okay? He worries over you more than I do"I chuckled. "True. Off we go then," I said, and we started to walk.The street was a lot quieter than usual, and all of a sudden, I couldn't help but think if a hitman was lurking in the shadow, waiting to get a perfect angle and take us out.It was all because of Victor Stakov. That was the name of the man who was threatening to destroy the peaceful happiness that I and Belshar currently shared. It was unfair. Belshar said he had eyes on him and that the man only s
