Grace's POV "Harder!" Adrianna spat and I hit again, "Harder!" I did it again, "Harder!" She kept screaming harder and I went with more force each time.I was dressed in my normal sports outfit as I hit every single time she asked me to. The gloves in my hands were helping me hit the boxing bag without feeling too much pain. The first time I tried it, my hands vibrated up to my head and I had a headache for hours. I don't know who people do this for hours.Adrianna kept screaming hard and hard, my breath had gone short and heavy. Sweat all over my body as I continued to hit the bag hard. Adrianna acts totally differently when we are in the gym. I wonder where the smiling Adrianna goes every single time she's training me.Somehow I see Vincent in her when she is this serious. When I told her that one day, she explained that Vincent is her teacher which must be the reason why. I can't agree less. She does have the same cold look when she's screaming harder."Grace, come on, harder!
Davis's POVI walked into the mansion and made my way to the gym when I saw the living room empty. I knew she'll be there since she wasn't in the living room.Getting closer, I heard Adrianna saying to Grace, "Pain and anger" "And determination" Grace had said, making me raise my brow. What were they discussing about? I wondered "Trust me, the pain and anger brought determination. Now, let's go again" I pushed the door open, "I know you want to go again, but can I borrow your student for a moment?" I asked Adrianna who nodded. I didn't need her to nod, I'll take Grace with me anyways. "Davis…" she called but I only grabbed her by the wrists and began to take off her gloves from her hands.Without a word, I pulled her out of the gym with me. She was looking at me like she didn't play some little fucking stunt with me and my phone."What's going on?" She asked as I continued to pull her and opened her room door and shoved her in,"What's wrong?" She asked and I smiled, "You tell
Grace's POVA smile spread on my lips as I watched 'my boyfriend' leave the room. Get it? Did you get it? 'My boyfriend' Davis fucking Stone is my boyfriend now. I feel like screaming it out to the entire world. And I was now using the word Fucking like he had shoved it into my mouth as he kissed me. I love him though, a lot. It was with that smile on my face that I made my way back into the gym. I can't wait to tell Adriana, she must be so happy, happier than me, if that's possible. When I got into the gym, I met Adrianna lifting weights. This girl was really strong. One doesn't see it outside but I'm so glad I never pissed her off like Lydia did. That girl was really something, she thought she could beat Adrianna. The funny thing was Davis never even asked about the table that had gotten broken. In fact, it has been replaced immediately with another one. He might have not even noticed it"You're smiling," she said to me as she dropped the heavyweight. I wonder how she still
Davis's POV It was late at night when Vincent and I stepped into the house. The lights were out and I wondered why. Although they might have slept off, I didn't expect that they would turn the light off before going to bed. As if on cue, Vincent pulled out his gun as well. "Grace, Helen…" I called as I went to switch the light on.Everything was okay outside when we passed but we can never be too careful. Immediately I switched the light on, I pointed my guns with both hands at both sides of me. Only to hear, "Surprise!" With my eyes closed, I exhaled, a breath of great relief. Jesus Christ! These two would be the death of me. "Helen" I breathed out as I moved the gun away, hiding it behind my back. Helen had a wide smile on her face as she looked at Vincent and I. In front of her was a big cake."Did you bake that?" I asked as I made my way to where she stoodIt's 10 pm already, Helen is supposed to be asleep. Why isn't she? And what's with the cake? Where is Grace?"Baby,"
Grace's POVNo matter how I called Davis, he never turned back to look at me or Helen. Not even once. It broke my heart so much, but I was more concerned about his life. He had locked the door behind him, so we would not follow. I hate it, I hate the fact that he is trying to be strong. I've lost people in my life, and only I know how scared I was. He didn't understand that he wasn't only endangering himself but also Helen and I. What will happen to us if something happens to him?If something happens to Davis tonight, I'll never forgive him. Never!I'm literally trembling right now. The sweat that had rolled down my face was enough to bathe. It just felt like the night from five years ago. How I had felt when I saw Caroline's body on the ground.I don't know why, but I keep seeing Davis's body on the ground. It's so scary, but I keep seeing it and I don't want to. My imagination was killing me, and it's making me cry some more. These are pains I do not want to face again. I don't w
Grace's POV“She must have gone to her room,” Davis replied with a shrug“But I thought we were to sleep in your room tonight?” I had to ask but instead, Helen said, “Daddy, I'm sleepy” She hugged Davis tighter, circling her arms around Davis's neck. He kissed her neck before saying, “Go to sleep, honey,” He moved out of the room to his. Before placing Helen on the bed. That was when I saw the time, it was 5 am already. What the hell!When did everything even happen? “Sleep Grace,” Davis said to me as he got out of the bed after dropping Helen on it. I couldn't help but ask,“What about you? Aren't you going to sleep?” “I will. I want to check up on something, and I'll come and sleep” he replied. “What's that?” I couldn't help but ask, I was scared that if he left, he'll never come back. I didn't want to lose him.“Hmm, Adrianna” he replied, and I narrowed my eyes at him “Davis, when will you be back?”He had the look of a brave warrior on his face, but I can't overlook the fac
Davis's POVA day of peace is all I ask! I don't know who the fuck these people were, but I dare not underestimate them. The last time they came with full force like this, I had lost so many men and Nanny Mariam as well. This time, I refuse to give them any breathing space. Immediately I walked out of the mansion, I began to fire at them. I didn't fucking care if there were survivors or not, my family were inside that building. I made sure no one made it into the mansion. I may have made a similar mistake before, but I wasn't going to try it ever again. My men stood firm as well, bullets flying everywhere and the sounds of guns too. Some of the enemies had escaped, but I made sure Bruce did not make it out of the residence. I captured six other men along with him. Only a few were able to escape. “Take them to the dungeon” I instructed Vincent, who ordered the other men beside him to take the seven men into the dungeonMy eyes landed on Bruce and I smirked,“You'll wish a fucking
Grace's POVI woke up to an empty room. Neither Davis nor Helen were in the room. I sat up to look around. When I checked the time, I realized that they must have gone to the living room after waking up. I yawned before stepping down from the bed. I stepped out of the room and went downstairs to the living room, it was empty as well. What surprised me was how clean it was. Because of what happened last night, I expected the house to be damaged somehow, but everything was intact like nothing ever happened. I shrugged before making my way to the kitchen, the place was quiet, there was no Adrianna or Helen. “Adrianna? Helen?” I called, but no one responded. Or was I dreaming?There's a belief that if you're in a dream, and you wish to know if it's a dream or not, all you have to do is check your fingers if they were five in number or six. If it's six then, it's definitely a dream, I raised my hands up to look at my fingers, they were both five. I sighed in relief, it's not a dream.
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
