I never expected Alice to live in a place like this. The apartment looks old and... uncared for. We even had to take the regular stairs since the building's old elevator is broken. Yet I pay her thousands of dollars for her services every time I need saving, I thought while following her up to the 5th floor."You know... my apartment is safer than this place," I said again as Alice opened the door with a regular key."Your apartment is too flashy," she replied shortly.Even though I spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on my apartment and its security system. I half-heartedly followed Alice into her apartment.Its simple and neutral interior really suits the owner's personality.The dull white walls were adorned with a few flower paintings, and the only striking color in the room was the fuchsia sofa in the middle.And it seemed like Alice didn't have a TV, but rather several large bookshelves covering part of the walls. On one side of the room, a desk with a sophisticated computer
Night had fallen when we left his apartment building. Riding in his Prius, we followed the GPS indicating Erik's current location. I recognized the area; the abandoned factory had been in dispute for the past eight years and I knew it because Crossfire Inc. had considered buying it a few years ago. It started to rain as we neared our destination, and Alice had been silent since we left, making the atmosphere awkward. Especially when I remembered the incident half an hour ago..."You have to turn right at the next intersection," I murmured beside her. She just nodded slightly in response."So, who is Erik?" I asked to start a conversation."Someone," she replied curtly."He's not your boyfriend, nor your family. So, is he your friend?" I bombarded her to push her.Alice smiled thinly at my question. "I don't have friends," she uttered."Is Erik also at the same place as me?"My question made her glance at me for a split second."The same place?""Not your boyfriend, family, or friend,"
The black-eyed man shouted in Russian, a long string of curses that I didn't understand. Alice responded with a calm and...bored expression. Only she could maintain such a demeanor in the midst of this situation."Where is Eirik?" Alice calmly asked, ignoring the black-eyed man's profanity."He's with Carleon!" the black-eyed man replied with a heavy Russian accent."So Carleon is really here," Alice muttered, her previously calm expression fading into a cold one. "For what?" she continued slowly."Not for you," the black-eyed man replied before spitting to the side.Alice raised her katana towards the man, blood still dripping from the tip."If that's the case, then for whom?"The black-eyed man looked at her with full of hatred, making me shiver a bit. "For him," he replied, pointing at me without looking at me, his gaze still fixed on Alice.Eh? So he had known about me from the beginning. How pathetic."And for Shaw," he added suddenly."...so Gregory," Alice's words were inaudibl
I don't know how long I've been lying on the dirty floor of this warehouse. The faint smell of oil and blood still lingers in the air. I slowly open my eyes as my breathing returns to normal, although my entire body still feels weak.Alice is sitting on an old table not far from where I'm lying. She's watching me, propping her chin up with one hand."How long was I asleep?" I ask, feeling a little confused. I seem to remember hearing Nicholas Shaw's voice, but it was only faintly. I try to sit up, looking around the warehouse. There's no one here but us.What I saw and felt before now feels like a dream. I turn to Alice again. "What happened to me just now?" I ask, still puzzled."You licked my blood," Alice says shortly. My forehead furrows when I hear that. I do remember licking a little bit of blood from her lips...Alice gets down from the table she's been sitting on and walks over to me, holding out her hand to help me stand up. I feel dizzy as I get up next to her, like I've jus
"What?" I repeated in disbelief, looking at my half-naked body and then back at her. So, she took off my clothes last night not just to have them laundered? But for insurance so I couldn't leave?I shook my head in confusion as I looked at her beautiful face, now smiling, really smiling, not just pulling one corner of her lips like before."Did you just confess that you're kidnapping me right now?" I asked, turning on my phone. Fortunately, this was still the weekend so there weren't many messages coming in. I looked up from the screen, pulling one of my eyebrows at Alice, who still hadn't answered my previous question.But Alice's gaze was fixed on my body, specifically on the wounds on my chest and stomach. Her smile had faded and was replaced with an expression I had never seen on her before...A sad expression.I placed my phone on the small table next to the bed, then knelt beside her. Alice was already sitting on the bed, white sheets covering part of her body."What's wrong?" I
I desperately wanted to strip off the clothes separating our skin right now and bury myself deep inside her. But at the same time, I also wanted to make her orgasm once before we continued."Alice -" My words were cut off as she suddenly opened her eyes again and knelt beside me to remove her already wet panties. I took this opportunity to remove my boxer briefs and toss them on the floor. Before I could turn to her, Alice was back straddling me, her movements both swift and graceful in my eyes.I couldn't take my gaze off the patch of golden hair between her legs. It turned out her hair color was natural and not the result of hair dye. Her feminine body scent was only adding to my arousal, making me feel tortured.Alice lowered her head to kiss me, her hair draping over us like a curtain. My lower body felt slightly wet because that's where she was sitting at the moment. My long and hard erection was almost touching her sensitive area right now.Because I couldn't hold myself back a
We had just left the JW Marriott hotel a few minutes ago. Alice was driving her Prius without speaking, and I didn't know where she was taking me today. Since it was still Sunday, I didn't have any obligation to go to work.After last night's... or rather, this morning's incident, because at three in the morning it couldn't be called night anymore, we didn't talk much anymore. When I told her I didn't use a condom, Alice only laughed a little but her laugh sounded cold.I had never felt so stupid in my life. It was the first time I had not used a condom, even though I usually was careful in relationships.What if Alice was pregnant?Imagining that already made my stomach feel like it was punched, but even so, imagining Alice carrying my child didn't feel too bad... And our bodies were very compatible, as evidenced by last night when I forgot-I squeezed my eyes shut to hold back from imagining last night's events again. I must be crazy. Luke Lancaster was already insane.Without reali
My heart was pounding harder behind my chest as my gaze fixed on those fangs again. Alice and Erik were still observing my response. Erik looked a bit worried, while Alice looked at me with a curious expression.I swallowed my saliva to moisten my dry throat, it seemed like I was starting to feel thirsty. I needed a few seconds more to master the shock and a little bit of fear that slipped in. "How can you do that? With plastic surgery?" I asked with the most normal tone I could muster.Alice pulled one corner of her mouth to form a crooked smile that made her look more charming. "Erik's teeth are all real," she replied with an admiring tone. "Although I've been waiting to see your scared expression, Mr. Lancaster."I chuckled dryly. "Then, next time I won't hesitate to pretend to be scared so you won't be curious anymore."Alice smiled then asked Erik to spy on Carleon again, whoever that Carleon was. In a matter of seconds, the two fangs in her mouth had returned to their original t
