Davis's POVIt was when I handled my phone that I realized that it was Helen who had been calling me. I'm so glad I bought her a phone.My smart little girl had described the hotel her mother had taken her to through the phone. Grace just doesn't know who the fuck I am. “Daddy, Mommy said she wanted to take me to get ice cream, but she is sleeping now. I haven't seen the lady who sells the ice cream” Helen had said to me. The anger in my heart was so strong, it took Helen's voice to calm me down not to break the phone in my hand. “Where are you, Helen?” I asked, and my sweetheart described it the best way she could. And thank God, I had placed a tracker on her phone. “I'm coming, baby. I'm coming with the ice cream. Do not wake your mommy, I'm sure she is tired” “Yes, I think so too because she is sleeping” I didn't hang up the call and continued to speak with Helen until I went to the room. I released breaths I didn't know I'd been holding when I saw Helen safe and sound. I fi
Grace's POVHelen was my savior. Since I met Davis again, she has always been my savior, saving me from the ruthlessness of this man. First, it was her picture that he had seen that made him pause his actions of killing me.It has always been because of her that he had not been able to lay his hands on me. Again, from what I heard in the dining room last night, she was the reason I didn't spend the night in that dreadful place.I don't know how to thank my baby girl. I looked at her small figure as she slept beside me. I had decided to sleep in her room last night since she didn't want to sleep alone and Davis had to go out.Wasn't surprised when he planned to leave the house late at about 10 pm. I mean, the first time I met him, it was also late at night. Mafia and their illegal business can only happen at night. Davis had sat Helen down to inform her about it. The way he cared for her and showed her love was beyond me. He has never spoken calmly to me before. Not once since I came
Grace's POV The fight went on till Davis pulled me along with him, “Hey, where are you taking me? Helen!” I screamed again. She is the only one that can save me from Davis's cruelty. He hit me against the wall, “If I hear you call Helen one more time!” He snapped, and before he was done saying it, I yelled,“Helen!” “Oh, you little bitch!” He slapped the wall very close to my face and I flinched. “Davis, let her out of here!” Vincent yelled.Before I knew it, Davis pulled me into a room I never knew existed. I didn't know a lot of things existed in this mansion, though. I looked around me to find the room dusty. One would see that the room had never been used because the bed, couch, and other things were neatly covered. When I noticed there was no way out, I began to beg,“I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Davis. I won't try it again”. He ignored my plea and began to move dangerously towards me, while I took slow steps back. My eyes were already teary, I'm dead and gone.We continued our
Davis's POVI am so angry at the girl before me that I want to just tear her apart. What I don't understand is why my lips are joined with hers. Was it the shock of Helen's voice that made me want to make it look like I was kissing her mother rather than threatening her?Let's say that's the reason. Why is the kiss longer than expected?The girl reciprocated, making me lose control of myself. I don't kiss, I try not to, but with Grace, I hate to admit that I didn't want to stop. I broke the kiss gently when I heard Helen's giggle from behind me. Grace was looking at me with shocked-filled eyes while I sighed. I don't even know where to start my explanation from. Ignoring the confused look she was giving me, I turned to Helen and walked up to her. She rushed into my arms and I carried up her immediately,“I missed you so much yesterday” and I smiled,“And I miss you too. When I came back, you were already asleep in your mother's arm” and she nodded. “Did you kiss mommy?” She asked a
Grace's POVI had given Helen a two-hour bath, not like it was what I wanted to do, but I just couldn't help myself from drifting to daydreaming Davis kissed me! How dare he? What was he thinking?From time to time, Helen would pinch my hand to pull me back to reality, and she did it again.I smiled at her and took her out of the bathtub. I covered her body with a towel before taking her to her bedroom.“Mommy, will you be following us to the mall? Daddy wants to get me new shoes”. Yeah, as promised, he has to buy them. How rich was Davis?“No honey. I'll be here waiting for you to come back” I kissed her hair that I had just used the towel to clean, It was still wet, though. “Alright,” she replied, making me wonder why she wasn't pressing like usual.I brow-dry her hair with the hand dryer before wearing some new clothes. I helped her pack her dark hair that she had clearly gotten from her father before placing her on the chair. She stood on the chair looking at herself in the mi
Davis's POVThe outing with Helen was just awesome, that's the best way I can place it. Like I always say, she has a way of viewing and describing things. I wasn't sure how she was going to act without her mom, but she always surprises me. She didn't only get a collection of shoes, as we both agreed. We had moved to the clothes part of the mall. Helen had picked a lot, and I fucking thank the Lord that I had the money to pay for all of it. “Okay baby, can we leave now?” I asked Helen for the umpteenth time. And like always, she answered,“Just one more” “Fuck!” I cursed under my breath. One more has been more than ten more. Now, I'm beginning to regret why I didn't take Grace with me. At least, she'll be able to stop Helen. Not really because there was no money but because I was damn tired of walking around searching for one dress to shoe, then a jacket and even a hat! Where does she want to wear all of these to? Next time, I'll just ask Adrianna and many more guards to go with h
Grace's POVI sat there watching Helen as she brought out one by one the things Davis had bought for her. What the hell is this man thinking, wasting money like that? Again, I'll have to have a word with him But on second thought, I'll wait for some days or weeks. God!I haven't been able to stop thinking about the kiss. Worse, it's just taking me back to the night when we had…I can't believe I'm actually thinking about this. I want to stop, but I'm finding it difficult to. Whenever I close my eyes, I see Davis, I open it only to feel his presence as well. And I don't know, but why does Helen look a whole lot like Davis now that I'm looking at her closely?I need to stop my mind from drifting to him. I need to concentrate on how to leave this mansion without thinking of a kiss or his hand that kept moving down my lower back or his expensive cologne or his…“Stop!” “Stop what?” Adrianna asked and I blinked,“Huh?” “You said stop. What—”“Oh, I didn't mean… I mean…. Helen should st
Grace's POV“You dare kiss my man?” Lydia got up“I did not, Lydia. It never happened” I tried to explain to her, but I could see the girl vibrating in front of me.“Shut the fuck up! I am Princess Lydia, don't you dare call me by my name!” My first instinct was to run, but I knew I couldn't. Not with Helen standing behind me. I could feel her tremble when Lydia began to walk closer to us, while I walked away slowly with Helen. “Helen, leave here,” I said to my baby but her grip on my trousers only tightened Adrianna, a smart girl I must say, rushed towards us and pulled Helen to herself. I don't know where they had run into, but I heard the door lock.Helen kept yelling from the room they had run into, but I was glad Adrianna had made such a smart move. It was me alone with Lydia. The guards were there standing like a statue staring at us. Now, I'm wondering why they are not doing anything about it. Why aren't they helping me out?“You dare to place your dirty mouth in that of my
Davis's POV"How's Gideon?" I asked over the phone. Vincent and I had been speaking for more than an hour already. He had called to ask how we were doing.Although we spoke every day, there were some days that we spoke longer than usual. We just wanted to make sure we were all doing alright with the decision that I made. And the more I hear of the things he does as Capo, the more I am the happiest that I made the right decision making him the Capo of New York. He has chosen Gideon as his right-hand man, Jack remains there too. That same night Vincent was made Capo of New York, he had called me his godfather. According to him, he wouldn't do anything if I didn't accept the role as his godfather, so I agreed. Now, he doesn't decide without me knowing about it first and agreeing to it. He was deliberate in making me take part in everything he does for New York. Everything had returned to normal. Raymond's bad blood has been washed away. No one asked about the man even after his disappe
Grace's POV After the cutting of the cake, the M.C. made an announcement saying there was something the groom wanted to say. My head swags quickly to the side, what does he have in mind this time? I watched Davis wink at me before he got up from where he sat. He had taken off his suit, leaving his inner shirt that he happened to rip the sleeves off, making the shirt a sleeveless shirt, revealing his tattoos, which I have come to fall in love with. He made his way to the center of the hall where the M.C. stood and took the mic from him. There was a wide smile on his lips as he turned to me, my heart skipped multiple beats."Let's welcome my wife, Grace Davis Stone as she joins me on stage. I love you, baby"I tried to hide my face but there was no way that was happening, not when the spotlight was sent my direction. I stood up and made my way calmly to where Davis stood. He took my hand and pulled me to his side. His hand naturally fell on my hip."I have a gift for you" I cocked m
Davis's POVShe finally said those vows, I made sure of it. I knew she wanted to escape it, but I didn't let her. She cried all she wanted, completely staining my suit, but I didn't mind it, as far she said those vows. And even though we were on our way to a hall for the reception, I could still hear the words she said playing in my ears again and again. “My Davis Stone, my capo, and my Don, I love you. I have always wanted a calm and innocent man as a husband. But what's the fun in there? You, my love, have made my once boring life filled with activities. We had laughed and cried together, and absolutely nothing could separate us. They had tried but failed” She raised my hand and kissed the back of it, “Thank you. Thank you for loving me so much, I don't know how I saw a cold, heartless man before. You're a bundle of warmth that I love to cuddle in bed every night. You're the epitome of beauty. I adore you. I promise to remain by your side through thick and thin, and even when the
Two Weeks Later Grace's POVI stood outside the church as I waited for the door to open up for me. The minute the door opened was the same minute the music began to play. Mr. Choi held my left hand as he walked me down the aisle. The smile on my face was covered by the veil I was asked to wear. I doubt if anyone would even notice that I am pregnant. The white gown hugged my body tightly, revealing my shape beautifully. Davis had personally picked this gown.It was so beautiful, I fell in love with it at first sight as well. Mr. Choi immediately agreed when Davis and I went to meet him to walk me down the aisle. He was even so excited, he explained that he only had two boys, so he wasn't opportune to walk anyone down the aisle. Today is one of the best days of my life, that was why I couldn't stop smiling. No matter how I tried to keep it cool, it was just very hard. Getting closer to the altar, I could see Davis staring at me. He changed his haircut, making him look younger and sex
Davis's POV“You're awake” I walked over to the bed and kissed Grace on the cheek. She hummed before wrapping both hands around my waist. She had slept till the next morning and even woke up late. “How are you?” I asked her as I took her hand and kissed the back of it, “I'm fine” Her gaze remained on me as she looked at me intensively, her hand reached for my cheek and she caressed it, “I miss you” and I smiled. The expression on my face immediately changed as I said to her, “Sorry I came late” But she shook her head, “You were just in time” “Thanks” I kissed her forehead. “Rub your body on mine. I can't get over the thought of having that stinky being touch me. Touch me, touch me”Although she said it so I could laugh, I knew she was serious because of how she literally rubbed her body on mine. “Do you want to take a bath? Although I have taken my bath, we could still shower together” “Will you bathe me?” She asked with puppy eyes and I chuckled. “Anything for the pregnant
Davis's POVWe finally went home. Grace happened to have fallen asleep in the car, in my arms. She refused to let go even when I wanted to drop her on the bed. She must have been so scared. I had to stay with her while Helen watched us in bed. I caressed her red face. I wish I had come earlier. The bastard had hit her so hard, that I could see the marks on her face. He even dared to climb on her. That bastard son of a thousand fathers.Vincent had gone to lock him up in the dungeon, even though he looked like a living corpse already. He still needed a little more torture before I, personally, finished him off. Adriana happens to be the happiest when she heard we didn't just kill him. She had made her way to the dungeon after finding out that he was there. Margaret didn't go, but was heading towards Florida when I left them. “What did the doctor say, Daddy?” Helen asked as she lay on the other side of her mother. The doctor had come over to check up on Grace. I didn't want to take
Davis's POVJack had called, saying Raymond was at the outskirts of the city in an abandoned hotel. When we got there, I didn't care to know whose men they were. I didn't care to know if they were really Raymond's men or not as they weren't really using their red clothes, we killed anyone who came our way. Shooting continued as I made my way up the stairs in search of Grace. Her screams made me know where she was. I have never heard her scream so fearfully before, my heart tightened in my chest as I cursed under my breath. I forced myself not to yell back as I traced the voice to one of the rooms. The minute I barged into the room, my anger intensified when I saw Raymond on top of my wife! I didn't know how I got there and how I flung the bastard off her. My jaw clenched, and my angry eyes observed her body, before searching for something to cover her. How dare the son of a bitch try to rape my wife! He dared touch her body!I thought I was angry enough knowing he kidnapped her, b
Grace's POVI have never been this useless in my entire life. Everything about the man stinks so badly that I wanted to throw up. The minute his hands touched my boobs, I burst into tears. I didn't want my skin anymore, I wanted it to be changed. How dare he touch me! I was Davis's woman. I belonged only to Davis, no man should touch me, especially not Raymond. The minute his hand traced my skin, I couldn't help but scream for Davis to come and save me. I would kill myself if Raymond dared to have his way with me. I won't be able to live with that ever. When we heard the gunshot, I expected Raymond to pause and maybe ask his men what was going on, but he was lost. He was filled with lustful desires that he wasn't thinking about. The gunshots became louder and they weren't just one. I could tell that something was going on but Raymond didn't seem to care. It was like his ears had gone deaf. I wish he could just get away me and go check what was going on but he didn't. It was like he
Raymond's POV“Tie them up!” I walked behind the three men who had stepped into the room dragging a woman with them. Grace sat up immediately on the bed, I smirked when I saw the look of fear in her eyes. The lady whom the three men had brought in just kept screaming like a loud dog. I ignored her as she was dragged to the bed, I made my way to where Grace sat, “My love, meet my sweetheart, Florida. Florida, meet my love, Grace. We will be having a happy moment tonight. What do you think?” I watched how Grace's eyes widened as she looked at Florida. The girl was screaming and crying. Weakling. One reason I love Grace more than her. Grace was brave enough to face the situation head-on, and I trust it would be pleasurable for us all. After they had tied Florida, they made their way to where Grace sat. “Raymond, what is this?” She asked as she saw the men coming to tie her as well. “Don't worry, honey. I won't hurt you. I just want to have a lovely moment with you both. I have al
