Grace's POVMy eyes scanned my surrounding and like lightning, it hit me and I recalled where I was. I groaned as I sat upright. I was damn hungry, that was exactly what woke me up. The last food I ate was the one Helen had fed me with. Looking through the curtain, I noticed it was morning already. That doctor, I told him I didn't want to sleep. I wonder how Helen was able to sleep without me by her side.I got up from the bed and headed to the door at the side which I guess was the bathroom, and I guessed right. After a while, I came out and made my way out of the room. The men were still standing there,Don't these people sleep? A break, maybe. I thought they'll stop me as I began to walk past the corridor, but they didn't. They only stood by each side like a statue. I slowly walked out of the corridor and saw myself in a very large living room.“Wow,” I exclaimed. This is a palace, mansion, castle, a big one at that. Slowly, I walked around the place. There was no one in sight,
Grace's POVI furrowed my brows as I stared toward the door of the kitchen. I turned to ask Adrianna who that was when I saw the look on her face. The glow in her eyes had disappeared and she looked tensed. “Stay here,” She said to me, and I frowned. She dropped the plate she was holding and rushed out of the kitchen, making me wonder who that might have been.I looked down at my food before looking at where Adrianna had walked through. I needed to eat, so I picked up the spoon and began to eat. “Where is he?” I heard the angry lady ask. “Where the fuck is he? He is not in his damn room!” She yelled again, making me wonder why people in this house use curse words a lot. There is a baby in the house!I have to tell this to this girl outside too. I stood up and made my way to where Adrianna had disappeared into. The lady was yelling at Adrianna about finding Davis in his room. She was dressed in a black bum shot and purple crop top. Her hair was tied in a messy ponytail and God. Whe
Davis's POVI have been in the best mood since I woke up. The last time I slept this peacefully was at the hotel with the bitch. My sweet daughter has the same impact as her mother, the moment I lay on the bed after telling her the bedtime story I had to fucking beg Vincent to tell me, so I could narrate it to my daughter, and I fell asleep immediately.When I woke up, she was literally sleeping on my chest with her small arms around my neck. Her breathing and heartbeats, I could feel, and my lips spread with a bright smile. Fuck! It was beautiful. I took a photo of it on my phone. It was that same smile I had used to step out of her room and head straight downstairs when I heard the fucker's voice. The bitch thinks I'm hers. It took everything in me not to thunder at her, knowing that I might scare Helen. Helen said she looked like a jewelry box with rings all over her face. That made me chuckle. She has an incredible way of describing things. While she bathed, she kept talking a
Davis's POVI stood facing the window as Lydia continued to rant about how she won't let it happen. Saying she wasn't going to let Grace stay in the house and much more nonsense. “The fuck Davis. You think I'll sit back and watch some woman take my man!” “Fuck, Lydia. I am no one's man. I've told you so many fucking times that there is nothing more than just fuck!” I yelled at her, and she slammed her hand on the table.“Wait until I tell my father this!” I let out a dry laugh before turning to face the bitch. I had made sure to invite her somewhere far from home. I won't let the bitch make my daughter to be scared of me again. I knew what I had to do that day to make Helen love me again. She is a sweetheart. She had calmly accepted and allowed me to teach her how to swim too. “Are you threatening me?” I asked coldly as I took steps closer to her. She slowly moved back as well, “You seem to have forgotten that the only person I answer to is dead” “My father is your guardian” sh
Grace's POVI don't know what angel had sent Davis out of the house today, but I was the happiest person when he left this morning for some important business, as he told Helen.I have been searching for a way to leave with my baby girl, but the beast has been spending more time with my daughter than any other thing.I didn't wait for him to leave before I began to search for a way to leave this house without anyone finding out. For the past four days, I have been searching the in and out of the mansion. The place is so big, a dozen families can live here and no one would bother another. I was able to find different exits in the mansion thanks to Lydia, who angrily stomped towards that area two days ago. They were locked, though. It looked like it's been a very long time since they used any of these exits aside from the main door.Helen was playing with a few toys when I came to get her from her room. I watched Davis leave the mansion first and waited for the longest twenty minutes b
Grace's POVDavis was livid, I gulped down when I met his eyes. I pushed myself backward against the bed rest. How the hell did he find me? Did he put a tracker on Helen?Helen? I looked behind him to see Vincent with Helen. He carried her like his own child, carefully. You'll never suspect he use that same hands to kill.“Get up,” Davis said in a low voice. I knew he was only trying to hold it in for the sake of Helen. I'm done for. It's over. Davis would kill me, he warned me, and I didn't listen. I wouldn't have fallen asleep, I should have picked up my things and taken the next flight to anywhere with my child.“Davis, listen, I—” “Get up, Grace” His low and cold voice caused me to shiver in fear and I slowly pushed myself off the bed. He was trying to contain his anger.His eyes were staring keenly at me, watching my every move. He turned to take Helen from Vincent before marching out of the room. I followed behind without being asked to anymore. Where Helen was is where I'll
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
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
