Amara
"Amara come on, you're taking ages" I heard Riley calling for me downstairs.Riley was my bestfriend, she was the polar opposite of me. She was fun, outgoing, adventurous and social, very social."That's because I'm not going" I huffed while walking down the stairs in my pyjamas ready to watch the breakfast club like I do every year on my birthday.I looked over at Riley who stood there enraged, arms crossed staring at me intently."Amara it's your 19th birthday, you're coming out with me and we're going to get absolutely wasted because that's what you do on birthdays. Now come on" she continued to whine at me. She tried dragging me up by my arm but I resisted as much as I could.I groaned, "but whyyyyyy?""Get up and get your ass up those stairs and put on a sexy dress and heels, we're going. Otherwise, no more discount at my parents shop.""Riley, that's mean, you know how much I love their shop" I complained.Riley's parents owned a few stores that sold the most amazing clothes, the problem was I couldn't afford it, not without the discount that Riley let me use.I smacked my hands on the sofa that I sat on and huffed. "Fine!"Riley just stayed silent and watched me drag myself up the stairs to my room to get ready.I looked in my wardrobe for something good to wear.But as I looked on my bed, I saw that Riley had already laid one out for me.It was a silver body con dress with a loose neckline and paired with some amazing silver heels.It was definitely Riley's style.I curled my hair the smallest amount trying to keep it as natural as possible as it was already wavey.I put on the dress and heals and did very light makeup as I never really wore any anyways.As I began to walk down the stairs, Riley started clapping and whistling at me."You are getting your virgin self laid tonight!" She shouted at me.My eyes widened."No no Riley that's not happening. I don't want that.You know that. Now shut up." I spluttered out defensively."Alright Jesus Christ I get it, you're gonna be a virgin forever" she joked.It's not that at all I just always wanted to make it special with a loving husband who I was married to. I was always a big thing for me. I've never even done anything remotely sexual. I wanted to save it all for the love of my life.That's definitely not what Riley did. She lost her virginity when she turned 16 and she definitely did not spare the detail telling me even though I didn't want to hear it.-As soon as we got to the club the loud music filled my ears suddenly.Riley dragged me straight to the bar making us both sit on the high stools."Two shots of tequila please" she asked the bartender.He smiled at her and winked, "anything for you two beautiful ladies"Riley took that compliment to start a flirty conversation with him as she is one to do.We both took our shots and I coughed straight after. It felt like liquid fire going down my throat. It burned so bad."Come on it's not that bad" Riley said rubbing my back."Says the woman who goes out drinking most weekends" I snap back.She just laughed at me, "That's it, I'm taking your sexy ass for a dance, come on" she said dragging me out of the seat.The music was actually pretty good but was just too loud. I started dancing to it and before I knew it I saw Riley dancing with some random guy, leaving me on my own. I tried to zone out as much as I could enjoying the music, but I could feel as if someone was looking at me. I tried to subtly scan the room as I danced and landed on a pair of bright, green, beautiful eyes.This was not a man. It was a God.He had the most incredibly perfect stature I had ever seen. His dark hair lay there effortlessly slightly pushed back. He had a light amount of stubled facial hair and his black suit accentuated his god like features. His incredible eyes stayed on me as I danced. I tried the best I could to avert his gaze and make my way through this night.All of a sudden I felt two strong hands grab my waist and pull me close to a rock hard body, causing me to gasp."Oh I'm sorry did I frighten you babygirl?" A deep manly voice says from behind me.His voice was so soothing and yet so dominant and assertive as if he knew exactly what he wants and he knew he was going to get it. This mans tall stature intimidated me and made mequiver. He quickly turned me around making me stumble slightly in my heels, but his arms caught me and held me up against him."Umm w-who are y-you?" I stuttered, barely being able to get my words out.His hands glide down from my waist to my butt, grabbing it lightly."Well now that doesn't matter right now does it baby girl, all that matters, is how fucking sexy you look" he answers back.His voice was so incredible it made my knees weak and made me want to collapse in his strong arms.While I tried to find the response to that I felt his hands explore my body up and down in the middle of the dance floor."I d-d-dont k-know you" I continued to stutter. What the heck is wrong with me?!All of a sudden he pulled me over to a private room that was separated from the club with a large, red, heavy curtain. He grabbed onto me and placed me onto a table that was in the middle of the room. My heart began to race and my breathing began to get quicker. He was so close to me."God you look unreal babygirl absolutely unreal" he growled leaning into my neck and placing soft kisses all over it.My whole body began to tingle and i was feeling something I never felt before. What he was doing felt so good. I tried to control my breathing but he was making my whole body go out of control.He then made his way up from my neck up to my lips and devoured them with his own. He kissed me with pure passion and lust pulling me more and more into it as we start making out.All of a sudden I hear a phone ringing which brings me back to reality. He stops kissing me and pulls a phone out of his pocket answering it and speaking italian."Sorry babygirl but this is going to have to be continued another time" he says to me before planting one last kiss on my lips.Oh my god his kisses felt like little drops of heaven on my lips and they made my whole body go weak.He then turns around ready to leave."W-wait I-I don't even know your name o-or who you a-are." I exclaim to him.He winked at me before he left, "another time princess"What just happened? Seriously what the heck just happened?“Aww, you boys are cute. You think you can intimidate me?” Her laugh rang out, stronger now. She was nothing like the girl I had come to know. Completely different. Arrogant, yes, but in a sexy, confident way. She demanded attention instead of shying away from it. “Answer the question.” My voice rose slightly, and her eyes rolled toward me. I was leaning against a desk in the dark corner, arms crossed, radiating a seriousness she had never seen before. Her eyes widened slightly, then locked onto mine, her smirk deepening. Sexy. Stop it, Killian. “I’m surprised it took you boys so long to figure it out. I mean, I was absent from this house for a while, same time as the attacks.” Her confidence grew with every word. Even tied to a chair, she held the upper hand, using it to toy with three men surrounding her. “Who are you working for?” Cosimo stepped closer, arms crossed like mine. Her head rolled toward him, smirk still prominent. “And what makes you think I work for anyone?”
Taking his hand in mine, he shook it firmly, one hand in mine and the other resting on top, holding the shake with purpose. “You got a last name with that?” he asked, letting go and stepping back slightly. “King.” His face shifted through a series of emotions—bewilderment, confusion, then sudden shock and realization. I had seen that look many times, always when I revealed my last name. Many knew it, and those who didn’t learned quickly. “King? You’ve never told me that before. Why does that sound familiar?” Killian’s hand went to his lightly stubbled chin, rubbing it as his eyes narrowed in thought. Andreas stepped back another pace, creating distance between us. I was used to it. “Killian, we need to talk. Now,” Andreas said, leading him toward a door I assumed led to the next room. I worried about leaving Andreas alone with him. Clearly he knew something, and I didn’t want it to come out. Killian followed out, and I was left in silence with Cosimo and Antonio. I didn’t know
Amara. Of course it was her. I hadn’t seen her in so long, but I could never forget those perfect features. All eyes were on her. Men wanted to take her home, but like that would ever happen. She was untouchable. I made my way over, a mix of shock and disbelief coursing through me. Why was she here, of all places? This wasn’t a place she should be, not with everything that could go down tonight. “Amara?” My voice was low, quiet, but laced with dominance and raw masculinity. Her eyes met mine as she turned. Shock flickered across her face, lips parted just enough, hazel eyes widening at the sight of me. “What are you doing here?” I asked, my hand brushing lightly against her arm as I drew her a little closer. She couldn’t speak, words fumbling and breaking into stutters. I raised an eyebrow, giving her a look of silent question. Her body shifted, pulling back slightly, just enough to tease me, just enough to make the air between us thick with tension. “I- I didn’t know you wou
Andreas gave a devilish smirk, one eyebrow arched. He was waiting for me to make a move, and now I had taken him off his leash. He was the wild card of our group. Unpredictable, dangerous. Anything could set him off, and whoever crossed him would suffer the price. We stepped out of my office and into the living room where the others were gathered, tense and ready for instruction. “Right, are we all ready?” I called out, my eyes sweeping over each face, making sure they understood just how serious this was. “Can you run through the plan again?” a voice asked from the group. I shrugged off my blazer and tossed it onto the nearest chair, revealing a wrinkled white shirt. Rolling the sleeves up to my elbows, the veins along my arms stood out in the low light. “We are heading to the Anarchy Club tonight. I want every exit and corner covered. Andreas, you are in the VIP rooms with me, Antonio, and Sebastian.” The three of them nodded without hesitation, no objections, ready to a
Leaning back in my chair I chose to break the silence. "You three gentlemen have come here to tell me about something I was already aware of then? That's all?" I questions raising my eyebrow at all three.They all shared a confused look and look around at each other to almost say the exact same response."You knew about the future attack and the plans people are making."A smirk appeared on my lips. It was rather demonic and powerful."You clearly don't know whose office you've stepped in if you think I'm a step behind a bunch of ammeters."They opened their mouths to speak but I quickly cut them off by continuing."Therefore you being here is completely pointless and I sit here thinking that I have three worthless people in my office wasting my time. Which leads to the question, what the fuck are you still doing here."Asserting my dominance they all averted their gaze off of me and looked towards the floor. None of them wished to anger me even further."Well?" I growled, gritting my
"How did you meet my brother then?" He questioned stepping slightly closer to me.My throat was able to swallow a large gulp of saliva that was stuck in my throat before answering."He saw me at a club. I was there for my birthday." I shyly answered.Cosimo chuckled lightly shaking his head and averting his gaze from me and towards the floor."Let me guess. He then made it his mission to find you after that night because you didn't throw yourself at him like every other girl." He continued raising his eyebrow already knowing the answer before I could respond.I smiled slightly, "I guess you could say that,I'm sorry that you have to see me like this, I'm usually not this careless with alcohol." Apologising with my hand rubbing against my head to soothe the aching."I’m sure you aren't." Cosimo brought his gaze back to me and giving me a slight smirk.I thought for a second trying to regain any memory.You know when you know that there's something that you're supposed to remember but yo
