Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Garden
Chris’s POVI dropped the call just like I had that I would, not even giving her a chance to protest. The gnawing guilt that I was a billionaire while my aunt whom I loved so much was struggling financially was getting to me, making me feel sick to my stomach.And that was going to change. I waited for her to send me the bank account number, and while I did that, I made another call and told one of my drivers to use one of the other cars that go for her at the coffee shop. When I dropped the call, I noticed a new message and it was from her. I was so glad that she had not given in to her pride. I knew her to be a proud woman, ever since, from growing up. I tapped open the message and I saw exactly what I was waiting for. To be honest, if she did not need money this bad, she would have never sent it. That was the kind of person she was. I mean, yeah, I was still a bit mad to find out that she had been the one to reject me when I was a baby and that it was her brother who had accepte
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Storytime
Chris’s POVI waited with bated breath for my aunt to tell me what she knew. I had a feeling that it was a lot that she was holding back, and I really wanted to know. I was tired of living in secrets. Aunt Maze sighed, putting another spoon of ice cream in her mouth before finally speaking, “Your actual father, William Bill, was a brilliant man. He was on the brink of a medical breakthrough when it came to longevity in humans.”“Okay…” I replied in a small voice, beckoning her to continue. “But…that was when your adoptive father found out about the program. He wanted it for himself and had even tried to reach out to Willaim to buy it from him for a huge sum of money. But the guy said no, and that was the beginning of the end for him.” My heart had a heavy bag of anxiety sitting on top of it. Based on where this seemed to be going, I was not going to like it at all. “What did he do?” My voice was tinged with emotions. She wet her lips and then broke eye contact with me, looking eve
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Elevator Rides
Chris’s POVI was in the back of the car, heading back to the office. My lunch break was over and I still had a lot to do, even though I felt the urge to just find a way to get to my father and have a long talk with him about him, I had to resist it. I adjusted my weight in the leather seat and stared out the window at the passing building. The food at the restaurant had been really good and it had been expensive, but in my opinion, it was worth it. My aunt had left and she had told me that I should not let any of the things that she told me get to my head, but she was too late, it had already gotten to my head. She also told me that she received the money and was really grateful, that it meant a lot to you. She said that the only reason she didn’t talk about it when she arrived or during the meeting was because she felt a bit embarrassed, she felt like she should have been the one giving me money rather than the other way around. I had to convince her that I did not mind, that sh
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Talking To Dad
Chris’s POVThe tension that lingered as I waited to hear what my father was about to say was very palpable. I’m not going to lie, my heart was thumping in my chest and adrenaline surged through me. I had stood up to him and it felt good, I would not have had it any other way. “Chris, have you forgotten who you are talking to?” The man replied in a hard tone. “So you think you have grown balls now because you have chosen to betray your family. Do you think that is what makes you a man? You’re a f*cking coward.” He started to laugh deeply. I swallowed, taking in a huge breath and releasing it slowly as a way to calm myself. I could feel the anger rising in me, and if I did not collect myself, I knew that I was going to say something that I should not say. Yes, I now knew about what he had done to William and me, but I did not want him to know that I knew the truth just yet. Because if he knew that I knew, he would know that it was because of Aunt Maze. I did not want to put her in
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Contemplation And Forgiveness
Linda’s POVMy heart felt heavy and my emotions felt raw. I was lying in my bed, buried in my duvet as the rain assaulted the roof of the house. The windows were closed and the water from the sky splashed against it. It was storming outside and I could not do much, but even if it was not raining cats and dogs outside, I did not have the strength to do anything. Maybe it was the pregnancy, or maybe it was just the fact that I was depressed. I sniffled, wiping the tears from my face. My phone was in my hand and I was looking at photos of me and Chris, where everything was simple; when everything was beautiful. How was I supposed to forgive him and heal after what he had done? After he had slept with a woman and gotten her pregnant. And when I finally felt like I could breathe again, I happened to find out that he had sent her a million dollars. I mean, I understood as to why he sent her money. Meghan was pregnant with his child and she had to be taken care of, but the thought still
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Going Back To China
Linda’s POVThe storm was still strong but compared to the one that was in my heart right now, it was nothing. I adjusted myself on the bed, sitting upright. “Hello, Chris,” I said in a soft tone. A few seconds of silence passed and then he finally spoke, “Linda, have you been crying?” He sounded hurt. Why did he have to ask me that? Why?! The moment that the question left his lips, more tears spilled out of my eyes, my vision getting blurry as I sobbed lowly. “No…” I lied, even though it was clear that I was crying right at that moment.“Oh my gosh, Linda. Are you alone?” He asked. “I wish I was there with you right now, to wrap my arms around you. I wish I was there to wipe your tears away.” I sniffled, my vision clearing as I blinked the tears away. “Well, you’re not.” He cursed under his breath. “My love, I am so sorry. I swear on my life and my businesses that I am so f*cking sorry. I broke your heart, I disrespected you. I betrayed you and your trust in me. I became the very
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Choices Were Made
Linda’s POVTheir reactions were a mix of surprise and concern, evident in the furrowed brows and exchanged glances between them. “China?” My Dad’s voice held a note of concern. “Is everything alright? Why the sudden decision?” I took a deep breath, steeling myself for their reactions. “I have decided to go back to Chris,” I said quietly, my voice barely above a whisper.Silence descended in the room, thick and heavy, as their expressions morphed into a mixture of shock and concern. “Linda, are you sure about this?” My mom’s voice was gentle, her eyes filled with worry.“I have forgiven him,” I replied, trying to sound more confident than I felt. “And I want to give us another chance.” My brother’s brows furrowed deeper. “Linda, have you really thought this through? After everything he put you through?” “I have,” I insisted, though a flicker of doubt danced in the depths of my mind. “I just…I need to do this. For myself.” “And the baby? What about the baby?” My mom’s concern was
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Honey, I'm Home!
Linda’s POVThe car made a sharp turn as we were headed to the airport. I was calling William on the burner phone but he did not answer. But I did not give up, I just kept calling. Finally, he answered and sounded like he was busy. “Linda? Is everything alright? I’m kind of busy right now.” I could hear gunshots in the background. “What the f*ck? Are you being shot at?” I asked him, worry filling my mind. He chuckled. “No, I’m the one doing the shooting. Is everything alright?”I was still very concerned. Who was he shooting? “I think I’m the one who should be asking these questions, William. What or who are you shooting at?”He sniffled dryly. “No one. I’m shooting at no one. I’m just practicing my aim, you know I got to stay on my aim. Especially now that we’re poking the bear.” He made a throaty sound. I released a breath that I did not know that I was holding. “I thought…I thought.” “I know,” He replied. “You’re worried about me because of what we’re doing. And I know, the no

Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity The End
Linda’s POVWe managed to get out of the burning room, and I swear I think I got a few burns but the adrenaline drowned the pain out. We were headed out and had no idea where the exit was due to how much smoke and fire was assaulting us from almost everywhere.The pinching pain in my belly was growing and as much as I tried to brush it off, it was getting harder to do with each step that I took.Suddenly, the roof caved in and fell to the ground causing us to be separated by angry flames. I was stuck on the other side and Chris and the others were away from me.Fear filled me and I took a few careful steps away from the raging fire. “Help!” I exclaimed.“Keep calm, Linda. We will find a way to get to you, but for now, I would recommend that you keep moving.” He pointed towards the ceiling.When I looked up, I saw that the fire was eating it up, it could fall at any second. “Okay!” I said loudly, so I could be heard above all the commotion. When I turned around to start moving, I was
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Gasoline
Linda’s POVI had never been so scared in my life, the room held a tension that I could not describe. It felt like a nightmare, a real one.It felt like I was hallucinating all of this, but deep down, I knew that I was not. This was real, and it was something that I could not escape from. “Please, think about the baby,” I begged Mr. Kingston, tears flowing from my eyes and snot running down my nose.“Did you think of the baby before you and your friends decided to f*ici up my life?” He asked, dark humor dancing in his eyes.“Light them up,” he said, walking away. In seconds he was out of the room. Kirby flashed me a sad look before her features hardened again. She then walked out, the doctor guy following her.I sniffled and then sobbed out even more. I was beginning to smell gasoline, the smell was overwhelming. Sh*t, they were going to burn us up. My vision got blurred for a few seconds before I blinked the tears away, making it clear again.The door opened and I saw Kirby and th
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Looking To A Higher Power
Linda’s POVThe call went through but after a few rings, there was no answer. My heart was thumping in my chest and more tears threatened to spill from my eyes due to fear.“You better hope she answers, we are on a tight schedule,” Kirby warned me in a hard tone. I was praying for that too. “Call her again, maybe her phone is on Do Not Disturb,” I tried to find an explanation.“Hmm,” She mumbled in response before deciding to make the call again. This time, Fallon answers on the third ring.I let out a breath that I did not know I was holding. Kirby brought the phone close to me and put it on speakerphone. “This better be important, because I’m very busy right now,” Fallon said, it sounded like she was on a busy street because I could hear the sound of cars and people being people in the background. “It is,” I replied. “Fallon, I need your help; Chris and I have been kidnapped. The like went quiet for a few seconds and then she broke the silence. “Linda?” “Yes, Fallon, please…hur
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Fate Hates Me
Linda’s POVBeing bound was not a nice experience, the ropes were so tight that every time I would try to move, they would pinch my skin.But I had made my decision, I wanted to come out of here alive. I wanted my baby to come out of here alive, so I was going to do everything I was told to do no matter how messed up it would be.Kirby and the guy who I thought was a doctor soon walked out of the room, leaving me with the guy who was not too far from me.I knew it was a man because of his build but I could not tell who he was. He was wearing old and ragged clothes and seemed to be unconscious because his head was bent over in a weak way.“Are you okay?” I asked, attempting to see if he was awake even though I felt he was not. There was no reply. So I sighed and then glanced around the room, looking to see if I could find a way of escape, but it seemed like the only way to get out here was through the door.There were two windows in the room but both of them had iron bars that did not
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Captured
Linda’s POVThe car soon came to a stop, it had been a long ride. “Take her inside,” Kirby commanded and the Doctor did as he was asked. He opened the door and got down before gesturing that I do the same. I did not want to be hurt and did not want my baby to be hurt either so I did as he told me. I got down from the car and glanced around. It was now dark but the lights from on the property were impressively bright. Acres of land stretched from both sides that I looked at, and a huge stood not too far from me. It looked like a castle. It was stunning but it had a dark energy that caused my heart to skip a beat. I already knew who was behind this. I mean, I had my suspicions at first but they had now been confirmed. The thought of Chris entered my mind and I felt a heaviness that I could not ignore. Why did they have me tell him that I was on a street that we were miles away from? Had it been a way to get him alone so they could harm him? Oh my gosh, I did not know what I would do
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Meet Me In The Alley
Chris’s POVKidnapped? The word rang in my ear over and over, and I could barely hear a thing after she had said that. The car behind mine honked loudly and I was pulled out of my trance. “Clink Street? You said you’re being held at Clink Street?” I needed to make sure that I had heard her right. “Yes…” Her voice broke before a shudder followed shortly after. Then the call dropped. I tried to call but there was no answer. So I tried again; again and again. And with the cars honking behind me as I was parked at the traffic light, blocking their way, I knew that I had to put it all aside for only a few seconds. My mind raced as I tried to make sense of what had just happened. Lind, my wife, was kidnapped. The thought was incomprehensible, surreal. But I could not afford to dwell on it. I had to act, I had to act fast. With a deep breath, I refocused on the present. The light that was was still green, so I finally drove and ignored the road rage that I was getting as I pulled to the
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Uh-Oh
Linda’s POVMy heart skipped a beat, a cold fear gripping me as I realized something was terribly wrong. Panic surged within me, but I tried to keep my voice steady. “What do you mean, you lied?” I demanded, my voice trembling despite my efforts to remain calm. Dr. Adam’s smile faded, replaced by a chilling expression that sent shivers down my spine. “You, Linda,” He said softly, his ice blue eyes locking onto mine with unsettling intensity, “You’re not going to another room as you already can tell, you’re going to a little place called ‘Pay Back’.” I immediately jumped out of the wheelchair and tried to run for my life but I fell to the hard ground. We were in the parking place, basement level. “Help!” I screamed at the top of my lungs but it was like there was not even a soul there. As I hit the ground, pain shot through my body, but fear propelled me to my feet again. Adrenaline surged through my veins as I fought to escape, but Dr. Adam was quick to react. He grabbed my arm lik
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity I Lied, Linda
Linda’s POVI could barely speak, the pain overwhelming me as I doubled over on the bathroom floor. Every fiber of my being screamed with agony, and I feared for the safety of my unborn child. I already knew what it was, what was causing the pain. This was not my first rodeo, it was not the first time that it had happened. Aunt Maze and William rushed into the room, their expressions filled with alarm as they saw me writhing in pain. “What’s going on?” Aunt Maze exclaimed, her voice tinged with worry. I struggled to find the words amidst the agony that consumed me. “It’s the bullet…it’s moving and must be hitting one of my organs,” I managed to gasp out, tears stinging my eyes as another wave of pain washed over me. Fallon’s eyes widened with realization. “We need to get her to the hospital, now,” She said urgently, her voice plastered with panic. With her support, I managed to rise to my feet, the pain still stabbing at my abdomen with each step. Aunt Maze and William sprang int
Secrets, Seduction, & Serenity Trouble Will Find You
Linda’s POVMy heart skipped a beat at the revelation, the gravity of the situation sinking in. The Kingstons had vanished without a trace, the police had no way of knowing where they were. I wanted to ask how that was even possible. But I already knew the answer to that. Power, money, and influence. They had found a way to disappear because of who they were. “What do you mean disappeared?” Chris demanded, his voice smeared with urgency. “How could a prison transport vehicle just f*cking disappear?” Sergeant Thompson’s tone remained solemn. “We are still trying to ascertain the details, but it appears to have been a deliberate act. We suspect foul play.” “Of course, there was,” I heard Fallon say under her breath before letting out a string of curses. The car we were in was more of a van and we could all fit in easily. My mind raced with so many possibilities, each one more terrifying than the last. Had all of this been orchestrated from the start? Was he planning revenge right n
