Since Elliot left, I've been pacing my room the entire time. That was something I shouldn't have said. I'm not sure what possessed me to say those nasty remarks to him. My guilt is consuming me. When those words left my mouth, I couldn't get the expression of hurt off Elliot's face.

I'm not sure what I'm thinking. Why did I feel compelled to do that? I just realized I was furious and irritated with him for ordering me to break up with Matt. I understand Matt hasn't been the best boyfriend due to his busy activities, but I don't see why he is forcing me to leave our relationship. It's not like we're still in high school, where I'd obey his every command.

I attempted to explain myself. I wished to speak with him. I tried to call him back, but he didn't respond. And I can tell he's angry because of his expression. My heart was crushed when he walked out of my flat door without even looking back. I'm not sure how I'd explain it to him.

Since he departed, I've been attempting to reach hi

    I awoke to the rays of the sun piercing my skin. What the hell? I squinted my eyes, attempting to figure out where I was. The instant I moved, the smack of a pillow struck my face. And it fucking pissed the hell out of me. "What the actual fuck?" I screamed with rage. Kyle stood at the bottom of my bed, smirking, as I fully opened my eyes to view the irritated prick who opened the curtains in my room. "It's wonderful that the boss has woken up. Why don't you get up and go to work? It's oh-so-middle-of-the-day and your phone has been buzzing since last night." "I am the boss, as you have stated. So get out of here and stop pissing me off." "Do you think that's how you should repay me for bringing you home? I and Briton, have to pull your ass over so we can get you home after you wasted all by yourself." I put a pillow over my head since I didn't want to hear anything from Kyle. "I'm not sure why you're here. So, what do you want?" I mumbled. "Just to let you know, since last night

    "Ariella, what are you doing here?" I asked nonchalantly. "My calls were not returned, and you weren't responding to any of my messages." She whispered anxiously, "I'm worried." She kept biting her lower lip, and I can't help but feel compelled to kiss her passionately right now. "I'm worried about you." I tried to retain a straight expression before answering her, "I have important matters to attend to. And besides, it’s not that I haven’t completed my job, right?" "Elliot." "How did you find out where I live?" She fumbled for a moment before turning to look at Kyle, who was close behind me. I already knew the reason without her saying a word. "I'm sorry, El. I begged Kyle to give me your address. Please do not get mad at him." "You didn't ask, sweetie." Kyle said. I immediately glared daggers at him because of the way he addressed my Ari. Is she your Ari, Elliot? You are just her best friend! So stop dreaming. The punk, on the other hand, just ignored me. "You didn't ask, sweet

    I'm not sure how Kyle was able to get me out of that unpleasant situation. All I can see is blood during that time. I wanted Matt's blood. I can't believe that I'll get to meet the asshole at the exact same time that Ari and I just mend things up. It was a very awkward situation, and I had to pretend that I really liked the thought of meeting him. But something about Matt strikes me as odd. And I will definitely get to the bottom of things. I went straight to my office, with Kyle following when we arrived at the warehouse. Since we left my mansion, he hasn't spoken a word. And, for the first time in a long time, I'm pleased that Kyle Conner decided to quit being such a jerk and chose to be silent. I went directly to the bar and prepared myself a glass of scotch. I'm enraged and irritated. In comparison to how I felt last night, I'm feeling a lot crazier right now. Kyle sat down on the couch and stared at me for the rest of the time. There are no words used. He's simply allowing me t

    Our prisoner squinted his eyes as soon as Kyle and I entered the punishment cell. The mole was probably getting another series of punches from Briton who was standing in front of him. "Boss." Briton recognizes us and wipes his swollen knuckles. Our small mouse was forced to sit up by two of our other men. "Mole, I've been told you're asking for me. What do you want to do now?" While smirking, I inquired. The damage on his face is something I like. Nobody has ever trodden on me, and have walked to be a free man. "Please! Don't kill me, please. I've got information, v-vital information." He appeals. Despite his bloodied face, he is attempting to speak. "You're not supposed to make a demand in this situation. You abide by my rules. So let's find a common ground. I'll let you go if I like what I hear. You'll die if I don't." "Please, bo-boss, let me go." "What's the point of me doing that? We were betrayed by you. What you did was trick us into thinking you were one of us. This isn't

    Over the next few days, I made sure that everything was progressing according to plan. In the course of multiple days, all of the major warehouses were completely renovated. Stricter security measures are in place for all members of the organization, as well as thorough background checks. I can't help it. I don't want to doubt any of my men, but I have to make sure that a mole does not infiltrate us once more. Kyle had also made the proper preparations for the fucking Matt to secure a job offer. I'm still waiting for Ariella to tell me the good news so we can determine if her boyfriend will accept it or if we need to raise the bar just to proceed with the plan. Fortunately for the spy we nabbed, he is still alive and breathing today. The bastard is doing okay after three gunshot wounds. It must have taken a lot of effort for him to be able to glimpse the glimmer of dawn. A lot of work had piled up with our legal businesses while I was focused on the broader issue at hand.

    Ari and I haven't seen each other since she came last time to see me at work. We've both been really busy. She's been working on the hotel expansion plans and probably spending more time with her boyfriend than I ever wanted. While I've been working on finding out more about Dimitri Wilson with Kyle and Brit. Later today, Kyle and I will meet with both of our fathers. We both agreed that now was the perfect time to inform them about Dimitri Wilson's re-emergence. We have been taking all the steps we could think of to learn more about the groups that have been causing me headaches for the past few weeks, but it all turned out to be futile. At this point, I'm becoming very upset that I'm being blinded by facts. We were in the warehouse getting ready for the parents' meeting when Briton entered the room. As soon as he walked in, he greeted, "Boss." "Any urgent news and reports, Briton?" As I beckoned him to come inside, I inquired. "All of the other warehouses have been renovated. To

    My father and Kyle's father appear to be conversing in their own minds. It's as though their minds are intertwined in a never-ending loop of possibilities. "Hey, old man, we're still here and waiting for an explanation." By shooing his father's arm away, Kyle disrupted our fathers' stares. His father reacted to him and said, "Asshole! Better act your age, Kyle." He added, causing a laugh from Kyle and me despite the seriousness of the conversation we were having. "Whatever you say, dad. So, what are your thoughts on this?" Kyle inquired. Without saying anything, both of them continued to stare ahead. I shifted my position in my seat, apprehensive. Isn't that what I was expecting? This reaction from them? Is it really a significant issue? Were we put in jeopardy by Dimitri Wilson's abrupt reappearance? What is it that they want? I despise it when I'm so powerless and unaware of what's going on around me. As I lean back in my chair, I throw a glance at my father. I remarked, "Hey, d

    I haven't seen Ariella for quite some time now. I'm not sure how I'm going to react to her engagement to the jackass. Who would have guessed that the dickhead would even consider doing something like that? Who would have anticipated, that despite our attempts to eliminate him from the scene, he would strike us back with a vengeance? And right now, I'm so enraged that I want to fucking kill that piece of crap. I'll have to come up with a way to get him out of our lives completely. So, do I have to murder him? Is it a good idea to shoot him in the skull to put an end to my misery? It's either in his heart or in his head, maybe? As long as the fucker dies in an instant, I don't care. I need to think quickly and well, regardless of the situation. Aside from my concerns about Ariella's relationship, Kyle and I have been looking everywhere for information about Dimitri and Lucio. In our warehouse's basement, the spy is still breathing, and Briton never lets a day go by without striking him

    Two men could be seen discreetly bickering over something in the stillness of the night. And although what was happening was visible to the rest of the men on the ground with them, they all chose not to interfere at this moment. They know better than to meddle with something that is not their concern. No one can genuinely understand what the verbal hubbub that is occurring between the two is all about as well. But whatever it is, it begins to appear to be about something big and important for the two to face off on the grounds just like that. The two men exchanged dirty, mean looks as they awaited each other's next move. And it also seemed as if they were about to each draw their firearms and end this ordeal between them, but both of them subsequently changed their minds and thought better of their situation. It really shouldn't reach such an extent once more. They now behave more calmly and rationally with each other than they used to in the past as a result of the changes in their

    The wedding ceremony is happening in a blur for both of them. They are just too focused on each other all the time, as they are both holding each other's hands. The couple is so overjoyed about everything that is happening that they were smiling all throughout. And why wouldn't they? They are getting married! "Now that you can, Elliot, you may now recite your vows." The priest directed him. Elliot wasn't accustomed to these situations, of course. He's never been kind to express how he really feels, especially about love topics, and most of all not in front of other people. Kyle and Brit are the only people who could possibly know everything about what his heart desires. Nevertheless, today, he is willing to voice his opinion openly about Ariella and take away all his inhibitions because he wants Ari to understand how important she is to him. Before actually beginning to say his vows, he even took a deep breath to compose himself. "Hey, you know how hard this is for me, Ari, sweetie.

    As I stood beside Kyle, my heartbeat was thumping frantically in my chest. I am anxious and excited, and I can tell that every person in the hall is feeling the same way as I am. This is where it all ends now. This is the culmination of everything that we've worked so hard to achieve. Today is a very special day for me and Ari, and everyone present here today is going to celebrate this momentous occasion with us. And I've honestly been eagerly awaiting this moment as well for a very long time now. But, in addition to that, I am currently experiencing a wide range of emotions. And for the very first time in my life, I can feel my hands and legs trembling at the same time at just the thought of Ariella Gregory. A distinct kind of nervousness is what I am starting to experience because, even though I'm anxious as I stand here with my best man, my excitement for what today will bring outweighs my nervousness by a long shot. Today is my most anticipated day. I'm going to get married tod

    "There may still be time for you to make up your mind and change the decisions that you made, so are you sure that this is exactly what you intended to be doing?" Markus is acting like an a-hole as usual at this moment. "Sure, everything else with the villains of your lives is done and over with, but are you absolutely able to say that you wanted to marry him, that douche? Just tell me, Ariella, and I am willing to save you from this misery that you are about to get yourself into." I scowled at him as I crossed my arms in front of my chest to just let him know that he was not in the least amusing me and that I was beginning to get upset and clearly annoyed with him. "Markus, are you done grating on my nerves? If you are, can you shut the hell up now?" "What the heck, pumpkin? Why are you being so rude and surly? I'm merely trying to provide some clarity to your muddled and disorganized thinking. And I just want to let you know there is still enough time to back out." "Shut the heck

    "It’s alright, dear. It's actually a very sweet gesture from you. And it just shows how much you really love my daughter." "I really do love her." He said proudly. Ari is too pleased, and she can feel the butterflies in her stomach again just hearing Elliot's words of affection for her in front of her mother. "And I love him too, so much, mom." She said proudly as well, then turning her attention to her fiance she said. "And yeah, I'm actually making your breakfast, but I thought that something must have happened because you kept calling and shouting my name that I have to see you. Are you seriously missing me all that much?" He replied confidently, "I certainly do." Then he lowers his voice and whispers to Ari, "Let's go back up into our room and I'll show you how much I miss you and how much I love you." "I like that." Ari answered grinning. She then turned to face her mother asking her, "Mom, will you be an angel and take over in the kitchen? Elliot and I just need to discuss s

    Elliot immediately woke up from his sleep when he dreamed about Ariella not being beside him. He tried to reach for her but was surprised to find out that she was really no longer lying next to him. "Ari!" He exclaimed in an instant. He's been so protective of her since the recent incident that the prospect of losing her again fills him with dread. He has lost her so many times in the past that he will not allow it to happen again. He jumped out of bed and briskly walked into the bathroom to look for her. "Baby?" He called out to her again but still got no response. He then tried looking for her in the walk-in closet, but still, she was nowhere to be seen. "Baby, where are you?" He says to himself. Instantly, he began to feel uneasy. How could she have gone anywhere without him? Did she abandon him? But why? What did he do to merit that from her? He tried reaching out to her all the time, but Ari is still finding it hard to get through the events of last time, and as he and Ethan d

    It is extremely simple to fool this young man who thinks so highly of himself, and as Mattias nods his head in agreement with Lucio, the elderly man feels he has done an outstanding job. With that being said, he has to leave immediately before Mattias poses a lot of questions that he wouldn't be able to answer. After concluding his report, he said, "With all of that information revealed to you, I will put it to rest at that for the time being." He then grabbed the money and, having to put it in his bag, rose up from his seat and proceeded to go. "I need to leave right now because I have somewhere I need to be. Call me if your big boss has another assignment for me." He declared, turning to leave without waiting for Mattias to respond. "The Allisters—what's up with them then?" The moment Mattias posed that query, Lucio halted in his tracks. "What? What about the Allisters?" "Isn't it that you told me you have information concerning both Gregory and Allister?" Mattias inquired as he

    Lucio was so excited about this meet-up that he greeted Mattias as soon as he came through the door, saying, "Mattias, it's been quite some time since I last heard from you. What surprises do you have in store for me now? Did the boss seem to like everything that I had to say about the Gregory and Allister families? I need details about what went through with your plans." The most recent incidents involving the Wilsons, Gregorys, and Allisters are still unknown to Lucio. He still doesn't know that Mattias and his men have been captured and are under direct orders from Elliot, nor does he know that Matthew is already dead. He made the decision to maintain a low profile after receiving numerous threats from an anonymous gang, and since he doesn't have anyone to back him up solidly, he decided to stay put and keep silent for a little while. And now he's overjoyed that Mattias has summoned him. He may not have information now, but Mattias won't know that, so it will be easy money for
