Davis's POV“Write down the names of those who had gone to that meeting with you” He froze, he was about to speak but when he saw what Vincent had done, he quickly took the pen and began writing. I had crossed my heart not to be shocked by whoever it was that I found on that list. Being betrayed shouldn't affect me, especially when their betrayal had caused my position. When he was done, he dropped the pen while I picked up the paper. There were twenty-seven of them, all together. It's a good one. “Don… Davis, I swear, I wanted to leave the… meeting” he stuttered, but I shook my head. “No, you didn't plan to leave. You were not interested in leaving. Instead, you were interested in seeing me leave as soon as possible” Davis smirked“No… No” he shook his head. “Well, when I was informed that one Lord Charles was present in the meeting, I wondered who you were. Not until I saw you. The minute I saw your face, I wasn't surprised anymore as to why you would want me dead. I had cause
Raymond's POVI made my way to the garden where I was told the private investigator was. I have been waiting for his arrival for days now, so I can say, I was eager to know what he had found out. The minute he saw me coming, he stood up and bowed slightly to me. I nodded before sitting opposite him. He had a gloomy expression on his face, making me wonder what exactly was his problem. “What's with the face?” I asked him.He cleared his throat, “Don, it wasn't an easy search, but I was able to find someone who was related to her” A smile formed on my face. Really? Then that was good news. There was no need to frown. “So? Can I see? Is it an aunt or an uncle? Who did you find?” I asked him eagerly. I hate it when he keeps me waiting, but he was one of the best I have seen. Even when others weren't able to find my parents for me, he was able to. Although it took him some time, he was able to find both my father and my mother. He was good at what he did. He searched his bag and bro
Raymond's POVStanley and I stepped down from the car, staring towards the place we were about to enter, Marcus's location.According to the detective, Marcus doesn't leave the particular bar. He drinks there and gambles there. The only place he is found is in that particular bar. “Are you sure this is the right place?” Stanley asked me as we walked into the small bar. “Hm,” I replied with a nod. When we stepped in, I regretted not asking my men to do this. The place was stuffy, noisy, and smelly. I tried not to puke, as for Stanley, he was already so upset we had to do this. My eyes scanned the place for Marcus, he had to be somewhere around. Even standing in one spot wasn't a good idea, as the smell of alcohol only got worse. We made our way to the bar attendant“Two glasses,” I said, and he got to work. Even as he poured the beer, I could see very well that this place was meant for only the poor people. Luckily for me, my eyes caught sight of the man, Marcus. I signaled Stanl
Davis's POVThe news about Lord Charles's death spread like wildfire all over the city. There were different versions about what happened to him, as some were trying to hide the truth. I didn't know why they were hiding it, I didn't care if the whole of New York knew that I was the one who killed him.Some News had mentioned that the new Don had a hand in it, while others claimed Lord Charles had shot himself. Vincent and I sat in my office watching the news when he shook his head, turning to me, he said, “Let's go”“Where to?” I asked with squinted eyes. He had already rooted out a gun from under the table before us. “The next name on the list,” he replied. It was only two days since we killed Lord Charles, we were already going for the next person. “Don't look at me that way” he said to me, “We were supposed to strike their names immediately it given to us. I only remained quiet because you went to visit Mr. Chao. Today, I'm erasing them from the surface of the earth” I stood u
Raymond's POVI made my way into the elevator, ready for my first meeting with my fucking father. He must have had the best night of his life. I am not sure if he had ever slept in an expensive hotel like this in his entire life. The guards standing to watch the door bowed to me the minute they saw me. I ignored them as always before stepping into the house. Even though I knew Marcus would leave, I still placed some guards to watch the door, as I didn't want to take any risk. Margaret just happened to be fucking lucky. Getting into the house, there was no one in the living room. Where was he? Don't tell me…I made my way to the room only to find the man still sleeping, it was 11 am already. Beside his bed were bottles of expensive wine that he must have ordered at night. My eyes moved from the ground back to the idiot. I hate him. “Marcus,” I called. He didn't move. “Marcus!” I called again, but he still didn't move. I saw, I'll kill him if I get to wake him up myself.There was
Grace's POV"Tell me the truth, Davis. Are you seeing another woman?!?" I asked the man in front of me. His body stiffened, his eyes staring back at mine, shocked that I had the audacity to ask him that. He thought I wouldn't. Fine, I had been under the weather for a few days but I am all better now. I would definitely not allow another woman to come in between Davis and I. "Where did you get such an idea from Grace?" He asked and I glared at him. "Don't fucking think I don't know. You get up every morning leaving the house only to come back very late at night. When you do, you don't touch me. If I try to touch you, you ignore me telling me you're tired. Tell me, Davis, who is the lady you're seeing?" Davis's fingers massaged the bridge of his nose before he sighed with closed eyes. I hated that he was making me feel this way. I didn't want to suspect him but earlier, he had ordered me not to touch him when he stepped into the room. He only came to hug now after taking his bath a
Davis's POV“Then do it” Grace spoke softly with her hand caressing my cheeks. She didn't know what she was doing. Here I am trying to be a good husband and giving her the space she needs till she gives birth, but Grace was being stubborn like she used to always be. “I want you, Davis” She kissed my chin before raising herself on her toes and taking my lower lip into her mouth gently. I closed my eyes, she was tempting me and I didn't know how long I could hold on. I swear, I fucking wanted her. The kiss was slow and sweet, yet seductive. She was calling me in, she was fucking seducing me into fucking her tonight. And I wasn't good at overcoming temptations like this, definitely not when Grace was involved. I would fall, I cannot resist her. My heartbeat increased, and my hands reached to her waist to gently pull her away from me, but I found my hands wrapping themselves around her waist instead.“Grace…” I moaned in between the kisses. I was going to complain, not moan. Her soft
Grace's POVI smiled as I watched Davis sleeping beside me with his head on my chest. I had insisted that I wanted to cuddle, call me childish, but I did not care. I love him and I wanted to have him around me always. He had been busy, and although he doesn't tell me where he goes or what he does, I already knew he was behind the killings all over the news. Adrianna had said it was because they had tried to kill him first. I don't know if it was because I had seen Davis almost killed that my heart had become this solid, but I didn't care who he killed as long as he didn't get hurt. According to what Adrianna said, or I had forced her to speak out, those were the men who had cooperated with Raymond to get Davis almost killed. They deserve what they are getting. Davis wasn't going to tell me, he was keeping it from me because I had made him promise that he wouldn't kill anymore. But I have come to realize that in this world, one has to kill for power, for survival also. In the same
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
