Resisting My Ex-Bully My Move
The doorbell rang and a wide smile rose on my face. I rushed through the corridor and opened the door. “Come in, Ashley.”“Are you sure it's OK for me to be here?” she asked, nervously nibbling on her lip.I nodded. “Killian won't be back until tomorrow, and I'm seriously tired of being in this huge apartment alone.”“All right then.” She giggled and stepped inside. Her mouth opened as she scanned the spacious hall, illuminated by the fiery glow of the setting sun. “This is amazing,” she breathed out before shifting her gaze to me. “Can I live here? I can cook,” she offered.I snorted. “You can't cook.”She frowned. “I can learn.”“Better not,” I murmured, leading her upstairs to my bedroom.Her eyes traced every inch of the penthouse as we climbed the stairs and passed the long corridor. “This place is amazing... I knew that Killian had to live in luxury, but this… Wow…”I chuckled and winked at her. “Yep. I had a similar reaction.”Her awe only increased as she entered my bedroom. I

The drama ended with a few slaps, Briana's tears, and an intervention from the guards who had to separate Jane and Gwen. Unfortunately, not everything went as I hoped it would. Dylan scurried away at the first moment of distraction. Briana also ran off somewhere, trying to save the shreds of her dignity. The two lovers were escorted out of the building, and they were the ones who received the strongest blow. No one had seen Dylan for the rest of the day…“So, are you going to tell me how you did it?” Ashley had been drilling a hole in my stomach since we returned to our office. She knew I would never get into details in front of the rest of the team, so she waited until I took a break and she dragged me to the roof. “Please tell me what you did. I need to know.”I shook my head. “Nope. Otherwise, you might be called my accomplice.”She gave me a meaningful look. "I am already your accomplice. I encouraged you. I even suggested killing Dylan.”I chuckled. “You're unbelievable.”“Please

KILLIANRaw fury still heated my blood as Josie and I sat in a private section of my friend's Italian restaurant. She tried to smile each time I glanced at her, but the pale shade of her skin and her tensed muscles betrayed how mortified she was.I had been gone for three days, and those three fucking days were enough to drown the whole company in chaos. Of course, Josie was in the damn center of that storm, and she had been dealing with all of it alone.I should have remained composed. I never had any problems with it. I should have gathered all the facts and calculated my response. But from the moment I learned about what had happened, acting coldly and staying composed became impossible to achieve. I couldn't recall the last time I felt this kind of rage. It was all because of her. Why? I had no fucking idea why. I couldn't detect any logic in my current urges. Yes, Josie was valuable to me, but she was supposed to be the pawn in my game. Being a pawn didn't give her the right to s

JOSIEThe rest of our dinner passed in awkward silence, with me playing the awkward part and Killian being unbearably silent. I tried to focus on my ravioli, ignoring Killian's heated stare. I gave up on eating halfway and decided to drink instead. Was this his new form of torture? If it was, he deserved to be applauded for his unique cunningness.We exchanged a few, rather meaningless, words on the way back to the penthouse, but just like in the restaurant, the words were not important; it was everything else around us that mattered.I could hardly breathe as we entered the elevator car and headed to the top floor. Killian's eyes kept tracing my face, my clothes, my silhouette... Heart pounded in my chest, and my hands began to sweat. I tried to think about anything other than him standing so close to me. I refused to acknowledge how perfectly his suit embraced his broad shoulders or how the fabric of his shirt clung to his well-formed pectoral muscles. I forced myself to ignore his

Killian disappeared for a minute and then returned with a first-aid kit. He sat on the edge of the bed and placed my injured foot on his lap. Heat flooded my cheeks. My nightgown was still wet, my foot was bleeding, and I still couldn't figure out how I ended up in this situation.“There's a piece of glass stuck inside the cut. I will have to take it out,” he said calmly.My breath caught. “Maybe I should do it.” I tried to move my foot from his lap, but he grabbed my ankle, keeping it in place.“I promise it won't hurt. Relax.” He chuckled.Was he serious?! I was sitting on his bed wearing a damp nightgown that exposed more skin than covered. He was still missing a shirt, and the waistband of his sweatpants hung below his back dimples. Relaxing was the last thing I could do!I swallowed, watching him grab tweezers in his hand. “Do you even know what you're doing?”Amusement danced on his lips. “Believe it or not, I treated much worse cuts before. Don't look if it bothers you.”I held
Last Updated : 2024-06-11Resisting My Ex-Bully Finding My Courage
Surprisingly, I was able to get some sleep. Killian's kiss must have burned some circuits in my brain, and my system generously decided to shut down. Certainly, as soon as I regained my awareness in the morning—or rather, merely a few hours later—restlessness was up and ready to swallow me whole.I knew that our morning was bound to be the very definition of awkwardness. We couldn't pretend that nothing had happened. Some boundaries had been crossed, and I had yet to figure out how to cope with this new situation. I also might have had some explaining to do. The problem was that I had no idea what arguments I should use.There were no feelings between Killian and me. We certainly were on the road to something, but that path was rather straight and had a large sign “fuck buddy” at the end of it. For now, I could see no roundabouts or crossroads to turn elsewhere.I envied Killian his unrestrained honesty. He was confident. He knew what he wanted, and he was not afraid to reach for it. M

I froze, processing the brunette's words. She couldn't be telling the truth. Why would Killian need a fake girlfriend if he had a real one? Drawing a deep breath, I faced her. “If you had been his girlfriend, you would have known that Killian's not here.”“If he's not here, then why are you here?” she hissed. “And why the hell should I believe you?”My annoyance grew, and I was seriously tired of her arrogance. “Look… I don't know you, but if you want to meet Killian, maybe you should call him first instead of trying to sneak into his penthouse like some stalker.”She lurched forward, pushing me away from the door. “I'm not letting you in there!”I stumbled back, but quickly regained my balance. “Are you crazy?!” I yelled.The elevator door opened, and a man stepped out of the car. Just perfect. More unwanted guests. The man was tall and well-built. His hair was a mass of wavy auburn strands. He was wrapped in a deep violet three-piece suit that screamed expensive. I had no idea who h

I inhaled slowly, analyzing Tony's words. I had never met Adeline and Maxwell Blair, but I heard about them. Killian's father had been known for his uncompromising approach to business. I heard he was ruthless and sometimes cruel, mercilessly taking over smaller companies to build his empire.As for Killian's mother, I hadn't even known her name until I signed the contract with Killian and did a little research on the Blair family. Later, I found a few magazine photos taken at luxurious galas where she stood proudly beside her husband. Adeline was a glamorous woman, an ageless beauty, with her lips always forming a faint, mysterious smile.“Is Maxwell Blair as terrifying as they say?” I asked.Tony chuckled. “Yes… and no. Killian's father loathes stupidity and loves smart people, but above all, he despises those who lack ambition and are lazy. Guess he'll appreciate your choice to work at Blair Digital even though you could have simply been Killian's girlfriend and used his money.”I

Resisting My Ex-Bully Irresistible
Four Years LaterYan Hao, Estelle, and Isabelle had become nothing more than a bad memory. Lou Zichen had been quickly convicted and sent to prison. Estelle and Isabelle landed behind bars six months later. The remains of Yan Hao's army and all his collaborators had been caught one by one. Special Agent Brooks made sure they all ended where they belonged. As if sensing there was no more danger around us, Aria, our beautiful daughter, was born a day after the final trial ended.My once filled with dread and nightmares life had become nearly blissful. Certainly, large areas had needed to be rebuilt, but Killian and I had pieced it back together. I had never returned to Blair Digital. After a year, Blair Digital merged with Tony's company, becoming Blair & Melton Interactive. Killian and Kaiden had recreated the Blair Consortium, making it twice as profitable as before. Of course, they both had wanted me to work for the consortium, assuring me I would find a place there. I'd refused. Inst
Resisting My Ex-Bully Following the Plan
Killian didn't like my decision. He'd spent hours trying to make me change my mind, but I knew that this was the only way to end this. Since my leading doctor refused to let me out of the hospital, my team moved into my room, computers and other tech gear included. Killian brought me a laptop table so I could work while lying in bed. Well, at least I wasn't breaking the doctor's orders, not entirely.In two days, we managed to add over fifty more locations to the Eye. We focused on private airports, harbors, and train stations. Then we slowly began to plug as many traffic cameras as we could. The area watched by the Eye extended its range with every second, but it still wasn't enough to find Yan Hao.“Ryuu should have helped us search for his former boss,” Ashley grunted, her eyes locked on the computer screen.I let out a long sigh. “Ryuu has done enough. I cannot blame him that he took his mother and left. Now they can be family again.”Ashley shook her head. “Still, he should have—
Resisting My Ex-Bully Almost Safe
JOSIEHe had come for me. He had found me. I remembered his lips on mine. I remembered a vague smile curving his lips. I remembered my voice cracking. I remembered the tears mixed with laughter… Then the sounds and images became blurry. Killian's voice softened and faded.I must have fainted afterward.Returning to awareness was followed by the pain. It pulsed through different parts of my body, but it didn't bother me that much. Perhaps I owed it to painkillers, or perhaps I felt that way because I knew I was safe.Despite the ache, my lips curled up slightly as I opened my eyes. I was lying in bed—a hospital bed—covered with soft sheets. A drip was connected to my arm, most likely the reason the pain I felt was almost acceptable. But none of that put a smile on my face or filled my chest with warmth. Killian's touch did it.He was sitting by my bed, his hand holding mine. His head rested next to our joined hands, his eyes closed. I slowly rose to sit, carefully not to move my hand o
Resisting My Ex-Bully The Countdown
After carefully analyzing the route and comparing it with the plans Tony had found before, we continued through the woods according to Ryuu's instructions. We climbed a small hill and finally saw it—a ten-foot-tall barbed wire fence with watch towers.“Son of a bitch,” Kaiden breathed out as his eyes took in the ridiculously well-guarded facility. “I've seen prisons with less security.”My lips formed a thin line. “Well, now we know for sure that the tunnels are the only way in.”I contacted Gunner and the rest of the groups searching other areas, informing them of what we found. I looked at my watch, and my stomach churned. We had less than twenty minutes, and that was only if Yan Hao decided to stick to his own rules. A part of me knew he might choose to kill Josie sooner...My chest tightened at the thought. I needed to get inside. I needed to find her. Now. “How long until you get here?” A low growl rang in my tone.“Three minutes,” Gunner replied, panting. I knew that he was prob
Resisting My Ex-Bully Calculated Risk
KILLIANThree Hours EarlierThe Happy App, Josie's creation, no longer existed. Yan Hao must have gotten desperate to get money, and he most likely forced some poor bastard to hack the system, using all means necessary. As Ashley and Kei explained to me, the hacker had entered the system thanks to a small device planted in the server room. Of course, that meant someone from Yan Hao's army must have broken into Blair Digital... I made a mental note to fire the head of security upon hearing the news.This attack might have ended in a huge disaster. I didn't even want to imagine the chaos such a monstrous leak of data could have caused. Certainly, Josie had created a drastic solution in case everything went south. She anticipated the worst scenario. She might have sacrificed her dearest creation, but she sure as fuck saved the entire company.I loved her for it... and for many other reasons... and perhaps a few more I still couldn't remember. Now I could only hope the rest of my memories
Resisting My Ex-Bully A Heartbeat From Dying
My body began to rattle as I stared at Ryuu. Again, his expression was unreadable. Was it just a part of an act, an improvised solution, or did he decide not to respect the deal we made?“You bastard,” I breathed out.Ryuu responded with a cold smirk. “We both know Killian will do anything to have you both back... alive. Let's make him hope he'll get to see you again.”Yan Hao looked at me before bursting into cold, disgusting laughter. “Then should we let history repeat itself? Should I let him pay a generous amount of money before slitting your throat? It would be quite poetic, don't you think? Like father like son. Maxwell Blair thought he was saving his brother... I bet that his son will pay just as eagerly.”A shudder rushed through my body, and my eyes filled with tears. I didn't even know if Killian was conscious. They didn't know that either. Then again, this was a way to buy more time. If Yan Hao wanted Killian's money, he would need to wait for his answer, probably send proo
Resisting My Ex-Bully The Sliver Of Hope
JOSIEI tried not to think about what was happening on the upper floors. I tried not to think about that arrogant hacker or that the Happy App might no longer exist had he decided to break into our system. Instead, I tried to make those hours count. I talked to Mrs. Satoh, slowly establishing her condition and if there was a chance either of us could escape her cell. The good news was that she wasn't cuffed or otherwise restrained; the bad news was that she had already tried everything, scaling the wall to find a single loose rock included. Well… shit.“So you've been talking to my son?” Mrs. Satoh's voice cracked slightly. “I haven't seen him for more than three years…”My chest tightened. “How long has Yan Hao held you captive?”“I lost track of time,” she murmured. “But I wasn't always locked in a cell like this. Sometimes, I was given a nice room. I was fed well too. My conditions changed depending on…” She trailed off, but I knew what she was about to say.“Depending on Ryuu's ob
Resisting My Ex-Bully Almost There
KILLIANI stared at the large map displayed on the wall-size screen. The red dots marked the places where Yan Hao's men were recently seen—the possible places where they gathered. We had today's war meeting at Gunner's base, in his office. The base, seldom occupied by more than twenty people at a time, was currently filled with more than two hundred. We all could sense that Yan Hao had been preparing for his final strike, and we had to make sure we could respond to whatever he came up with.The door opened, and Samuel Brooks entered the room. The FBI agent gave Gunner, Kaiden, and me a tight smile before walking over to the map and stopping beside me. “Good to see you alive and well,” he muttered by way of greeting.“Good to be alive.” I smiled wryly.Gunner rose from his chair behind the desk and stepped toward us. “I hope you left your badge outside like I told you to, Brooks,” he warned, giving the agent a firm stare. “If you're not certain whether you'd like to be part of this, be
Resisting My Ex-Bully Buying Time
“What do we do now?” I choked out when Ryuu finally opened the bathroom to let me out.“We need to go.” He grabbed my arm and started pulling me toward the door.Panic surged in an instant. “I can't! I don't even know if the encrypted message passed! I didn't find your mother either!”Ryuu grabbed my chin, forcing me to look into his eyes. “We don't have more time. If I don't bring you to Yan Hao now, we're both as good as dead.”I sucked in an uneven breath, ineptly trying to calm down and failing. “So... what will happen now?” I finally managed.He exhaled slowly and looked me up and down. “You'll have to lie, and you'll have to be very convincing. You'll have to put on your best act, as if your life depends on it because it will.”I swallowed a thick knot in my throat. “Tell me what to do,” I breathed out.“First of all, you'll have to act like you're disoriented,” he said. “A few people saw me when I carried you here. You'll have to pretend as if you were unconscious most of the t
