The stillness that followed their collaboration was earsplitting, if not perilous. Ariana had intentionally spilled the drink to take Caddaric’s attention from what Sebastian had just said, hoping that Caddaric wouldn’t try anything violent since the man hadn’t tried to hurt her. His intentions seemed rather plausible.Nevertheless, when her eyes met that of Caddaric, she feared something bad was going to happen and she couldn’t allow it. She reached out to pick a tissue but Caddaric reached it before her. He stood up and ambled to her in two slow steps, whiles he wiped the mango punch from the blouse she wore, also realizing that she was cold because of the ice cubes.His actions were gentle and no words were spoken. Sebastian looked on muddled, not knowing what was going on. Why was Caddaric treating his secretary like a gem? He already had someone he had to marry so the idea of anything going on between them wasn’t hailed.While he weldered in thoughts, he only heard manly footstep
Caddaric arrived with Ariana at his penthouse. As soon as they entered the room, Ariana covered his form with hers, hugging him tightly and grinding herself against him, making the man’s gaze darken with want for her. “Please Cadda, I want you right here and now.”She began to unbuckle his waist belt allowing, his black pants to fall and he was wearing one of the sexy boxers she bought for him. In as much as Caddaric wanted to grant her wish, he was still disturbed and asked worriedly, “Shouldn’t you eat first?”Ariana’s hands were all over him, her eyes on fire with desire as she spoke in deep breaths. “I can’t wait…I..”Her clothes were already ripped from her body, laying pitiably on the floor. What was it with Caddaric and his style of ripping her clothes off her? Whereas it was so sexy that it made her walls leak with her juices.It was when Caddaric lay on top of her on the sofa that she realized how much self-control the man had. He was so hard and when Ariana felt the veins ar
Earlier on, Casper had been receiving news on Caddaric but what happened this morning was the stroke that broke the camel’s back. As a father who loved his daughter to bits, he wasn’t comfortable, not hearing from his daughter for days on end. He missed her and so did her mum.“What do you have for me?” He asked as soon as Hunter arrived at his manor to escort him to the office. He was dressed in his usual all-black with black sunglasses. Hunter knew straight away, the only news Casper wanted to hear and answered truthfully, despite how he had wanted to put in a word or two for Caddaric.“Yesterday, he was seen driving to where he dropped Cassandra but he returned without her.”Casper’s face was the usual emotionless mask but having worked for him for decades, Hunter discerned that the man was upset. “And now?” Casper asked coldly. Hunter swallowed tightly and said,“The last time we checked, he was in his penthouse with Ariana.”Casper felt that something was wrong and that it might
Casper was used to being the one to outsmart others but it seemed that his children were trying to do the same thing to him and it irked him because he couldn’t read them the way he did his opponents. His karma seemed to have come after ages but not too late. Caddaric was a fan of arranged marriages like a true Blade so Casper was surprised that Caddaric didn't support him.He rather seemed to want his sister to get married differently. The more Casper thought about it, the more he feared that these two might unite against him. He asked with a stoic expression, his fingers relaxing around Cassandra’s wrist but not completely letting go.“Who do you propose?”Caddaric knew that his father would instantly know if he gave a name so he rather said, “give me an extra invitation to the party and I will bring him.”“I have to know the person first. I don’t need details. Just a name,” Casper insisted. Since his wife would be there, he had to ensure that every invitee was clean, so he doesn't
“He admitted that he loved you? Did you force him?” Julliet was so stunned and asked. It wasn’t surprising but she wasn’t expecting it so soon. However, recalling how worked up Caddaric was when he returned from his trip and couldn’t see Ariana, she lost the flare of surprise.Caddaric had received news from Chad that another set of job seekers flooded the club and had left with Anna and Marshall to take care of it after Julliet arrived.He also left a stern instruction for Juliet to not leave Ariana’s side and also entrusted Allan with the responsibility of tightening the security in his office. He was also to update Caddaric on anything he found out about the Dons, who he wanted to attack, and why. Caddaric understood that despite their partnership, they still had different areas of focus.Well, since the only criminal brave enough to infiltrate his club was now on his team, there wasn’t much to be feared but he still had to take caution.Allan had left Caddaric’s office after assuri
Ariana recalled everything about her last meeting with her mother which went sour. She had forgotten all about it before but it suddenly came rushing back to her mind again. Since she decided to not contact her mother again, she had tried to erase her from her mind so this forced remembrance made her upset, she frowned and said,“If you remember vividly the one who paid your tuition and took care of you since you were seven, you will remember that we both do not have a mother.” She turned to leave when her brother said,“Ana, she has kidney failure. She’s very sick,” Amos said with a care that increased her anger. Right now, Ariana knew that the only family she had was her brother. Her mother was already deleted in her heart.“That’s good news. It fulfills my prophecy that she will die a horrible death,” Ariana said sarcastically. Amos could guess that something had happened. His sister would always be carrying the burden alone and not tell him anything but he decided to demand it now.
Ariana was very grateful to Caddaric at the moment. If he hadn’t intervened and watched her brother walk away, she wouldn’t have known this bit of information. Now that she knew that her mother’s intentions towards her were still vile, she couldn’t only pray for the vicious woman to die faster.Caddaric’s countenance was so frosty that it was frightening, Amos began to fear if it was wrong to divulge the information. No one had spoken since he made the revelation and the silence was so gauche that he felt even breathing would cause Caddaric to burst.When Caddaric finally spoke, Amos was relieved. “I can assure you that that will never happen.” It had taken so much effort for him to calm down after hearing such devastating news. To kidnap Ariana and remove her kidneys? Caddaric already had a plan. Right now, he was worried about Amos, knowing that he could protect Ariana but not her brother since he was still in school.“Take this,” Caddaric removed his wristwatch and gave it to him.
It was just as Ariana had expected when Caddaric pulled out his phone and called Chad. “Please come to my office right now.” Ariana knew that Caddaric would not tolerate it if anyone attacked her, physically or verbally, even before he confessed his love to her. Marcie was spewing nonsense as a result of envy but now, she fell out of Caddaric’s good books and into his bad ones.Chad arrived, panting as if a lion had chased him out of his office. When he saw the two girls in front of Caddaric, he was disturbed. Caddaric was always good to women but he looked rather upset. He didn't need the reason why Caddaric asked for him as the latter spoke as soon as he got close.“Can you give me the list of people talking?” He asked Marcie, his gaze so piercing, it gave her a shiver and her knees wobbled. Why couldn’t she stay in her lane and work like she always did? Why did she have to eavesdrop and be spying on Ariana, thereby fueling her jealousy towards her?Whereas since Caddaric asked for
