Davis POV“Davis, she said she is getting worse. She was shaking when I got to her room” Vincent said the minute he entered into the study.A frown settled on my face, as I dropped the gun I was cleaning with a dry rag, “Didn't you say she was getting better just last night?” “That was what she said, but I don't understand why she is getting worse now. It must be a fever, I've called the doctor” I nodded, that's the best thing to do now. “When do you plan to see her? It's not far from here, you know. It's just a few stairs away” he said with a knowing look and I rolled my eyes at him. Standing up from the chair I was sitting on, I pulled out a stick of cigarettes from the box and lit it. Looking out the window, I said, “I won't be at ease until I place Lydia in her place. That bitch dare to beat Grace up even after I explained things to her?!?”“Well… you didn't explain the part that you were going to be kissing her also" “Fuck you!” I swore at Vincent in rage. Damn! I hate the
Grace's POV“Ah!” I screamed when the doctor held a part of my hips. Of course, I wasn't feeling any pain but pity for anyone who thinks I'll be going anywhere with Davis. I suspected that Vincent will go get the doctor, so I had rehearsed what to do in my head. The only pain I was feeling was now seeing my daughter's pitiful face. “Ahhh!” I screamed when he pressed harder. My face was deep with a frown, I tried to squeeze out tears from my eyes so that it would look more real than before. And suddenly the door burst open, and Davis rushed in.“What the fuck are you doing that's making her scream?!?” He thundered at the doctor.Helen rushed towards him, and he picked her up immediately. “I thought you said she was getting well?” He asked again, anger visible on his face. I wonder how Helen can remain in his arms with that face. He is still handsome alright, but his eyes were something else. Whenever he is angry, his eyes switch from blue to deep dark blue. I could see the fire i
Davis's POV “We are going to Lydia's” “Davis, you are taking this too far” I heard Vincent say, but I shook my head. “No, I am not. We are leaving right this minute” I said to Vincent.I asked Helen how her mother was doing this morning, and she said she was still feeling pains in her waist. For my anger to subside, I need to deal with Lydia. I have been calling her to meet me, but she had been ignoring my calls and avoiding my messages. She knew what she did, and she knows what I can do.“I don't think her father would like this” I let out a dry laugh before breathing out the smoke through my nose, “And who the fuck cares about him?” I asked. “He is your guardian” “Say that one more time and watch me cut off one of your fucking ears” And he shut it. He knew when I was being fucking serious, and he also knows how I hate it when one tells me that the bastard was my guardian. I won't be shocked if he had a hand in what led to godfather's death. He is the next heir if not that
Grace's POVI checked the time, it was 2:30 pm, time for Helen's afternoon nap, so I suspected she was sleeping already. Not wasting time, I made my way to the bathroom to take my bath. I remained there for a long time, thinking about how I've been able to trick everyone into believing that I am still not well. Happiness rushed into my veins when I realized that I was able to act to the extent that even New York's Don did not notice a thing. I burst into laughter as I remembered what happened last night. The doctor will surely go to church for special prayers so that I'll get well soon. “Sorry, but this god isn't going to answer,” I said, pointing to myself.After getting out of the bathtub, I made my way to the shower and spent my time there as well, enjoying the feeling of the water pouring down on me.I knew I had spent time in the bathroom, so I wrapped myself in a towel before walking out of the bathroom, only to receive the shock of my life. My hand flew to my chest when I
Davis's POV“Yes, Grace, snapped out of it,” I said to her with a wide smile on my face. Speaking with her really is doing me good. What a perfect therapy after my meeting with Lord fucking Nick.I mean, I was smiling and amused at her behavior. Very transparent, even without seeing her, I could tell every one of her next moves. As if I could imagine what was running in her head.“What were you thinking, Grace? Should I make a wild guess?” I asked, taunting her. Somehow, I'm finding joy in doing this. Taunting her.Grace has the body of a goddess, how can I forget this? That night, I just couldn't get enough of her. Fuck, I can't believe just seeing her naked had made me hard like a rock.I want her. I fucking want her again! Just once or twice. Damn! I wouldn't have come here. And to think that she is still thinking about that night too. “Don't you dare change the topic, Davis” she said from the bathroom, making me come back to the present where I am in her room sitting on her bed
Grace's POV Right now, I think I'd rather choose the ground opening up to swallow me than to go out, but not when my daughter's trust in me is at stake! I shouldn't have pretended and lied to Helen.Out of everyone in this residence, Davis was the one who caught me. I wonder how long he is going to use this against me.The moment I saw the shirt he had passed to me, I felt my legs give way. It took everything in me not to fall to the ground. I don't even know why I kept the fucking shirt! Grace, your words! Damn it! Davis! It's Davis! Oh my God. I'm now swearing too. And the word, Fucking? Davis!I breathed in and out severally, trying to calm myself before opening the door. I know what Davis can do. He'll tell Helen, I know he would, if I don't come out. With my breath held, I stepped out of the bathroom holding the sides of the white round-neck sleeveless top. It was short, it only covered me down to my ass. The rest of my slender legs were exposed. And the fact that I wasn't we
Davis's POV“Tell me” I sat down on the chair, immediately pulling out a box of cigarettes. I need everything and anything that could calm me down. Fuck! Grace is a bitch. “The DDS company is going smoothly, we just need to sign that contract with Mr. Leo, and we are good to go in the partnership contract. The casino has been reopened, Officer Raymond made sure of that. The stripper club FlameAll is lacking some strippers, and we would need to hire. Benson thinks it is wise that we divide the share of the income coming from the underground boxing ring, since it was his idea in the first place—” and I let out a chuckle, disrupting his speech.“Tell him to come to tell me that himself, the motherfucker” Ignoring Benson and his stupid request, I asked,“The Underground” “We are still trying to make the man speak. He claimed he didn't know who had sent him, and he was willing to give up his life for it because the man would come and take over”. “Same old bullshit, huh?” I asked, and I
Grace's POVTwo days and I'm still trying to hide from Davis. We always sit for dinner, but apart from that, I always tried to keep myself busy from his or Helen's talk of an outing. I know if he wants to get me, he can, but for the time being, let me do all I can to stay away from him.Although right now, we are all seated in the dining room having dinner. Helen and her father were discussing how fun their outing today was. Good for them that they could go out, but certainly not me.I quietly ate my food and refused to make a sound. Vincent sat with us in the dining room today as well. “Daddy, you said there was something you wanted to tell Mom and I should remind you,” Helen said, causing my heart to begin to race. I tried not to turn my head to Davis and I hoped he forgets whatsoever it was he wanted to say to me, but I heard Davis say, “Yes honey, thanks for the reminder” he wiped his lips clean before calling “Grace,” I contemplated whether to respond or not, but I knew I di
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
