ALEXANDRA POV“That went better than I thought. She's accepting things better than I expected.”Though the thought of Devon and his mischief lingered, I managed to shower and sleep off ******I woke up to my phone ringing; it was Finn. “Good morning, boss.”“Hey Finn, what's the update?” “The bastard is one of the investors.”.“Who?”“Mr. Williams”“One would think it's someone with bigger balls.” We both laughed. “What gave him out?”“Well, immediately you left, he was the only investor amongst the rest who did not flinch; it was more like he expected things to go wrong. Then we had someone just send photographs of him meeting with Devon just last night.”“Let's feign ignorance on him and focus on Devon; that way we can milk him of his money and take him out.”“Don't you think Devon will find out?”“Yes, we will attack with only force and let him think we're playing our cards out of anger. Let's act the fool in order to play the fool.” This was becoming satisfying. How do I want D

KELLY'S POV “These clothes are top-notch, from the quality of fabrics to the brand names, and they seem comfortable and classy at the same time. Did Daniela help in picking them out? her sense of fashion is solid from her outfit I saw last time”. I was so excited; I needed to get the dressings on my injuries changed, so I pressed the button. Devon had gone to work by now.Just then I heard Snapchat’s notification on my phone. I thought it was Dain, but it wasn't him. It was my colleague at work.“Girl, where have you been? The boss said you were sick; I stopped by the house.”.Should I tell her? No, we are not even that close.“I'm ok.” I texted back.“Yes, I'm a bit down.”“I hope you get better soon.” Her Snapchat avatar remained on the top of the keyboard, signifying she was in the chat; I felt she wanted to hear more.“Thank you. How has work been, and the other girls?”“We've been good; work has been work. You know the drill: get well and get your sniffling ass back to work; we

ALEXANDER POVI called Finn immediately I was ready.“What's up? Meet me at the company; Williams just requested a private meeting with me this morning.”.“Alright, I'll be there.”.I drove out.********Daniela walked up to me as I walked into the company. It's like she's been waiting forever.“Finally you're here. Is this true what I heard about Mr. Williams? Finn told me he is acquainted with Devon and is the leak.”*Yup, he is, I said, not paying total attention to her; a staff member greeted us as we waited for the elevator.“Has he said anything in addition to wanting to see me?”“No boss, he just wanted a time today; I gave him one, and boom, he was already on his way here.”.“That's fast,” I smiled and thought of how desperate he must be to watch me fall.*****"Mr. Williams welcomed me with a firm handshake as I walked into the conference room. His usual calm demeanor betrayed nothing, but I already knew better.“Mr. Bloodhound, good to see you,” he started, gesturing for me

KELLY’S POVThe soft tapping on my shoulder pulled me out of my sleep. My eyes fluttered open, adjusting to the dimly lit room. Standing above me, hands in his pockets and an unreadable expression on his face, was Alex. His presence filled the room, radiating authority and an undercurrent of something darker.“Alex,” I mumbled, sitting up. My voice was groggy from sleep, and my heart quickened. “You’re back.I've waited for you all day.“Yes, I am.” His tone was calm, almost too calm, like the surface of a still lake hiding something dangerous beneath. “All day? I came in late because I had an engagement this evening that took me off balance, he said and quickly added “We need to talk, Kelly.”I tensed at his words, the unease from the previous day rushing back. My eyes flickered to the clock on the wall. It was nearly midnight.“Talk about what?” I asked, trying to keep my voice steady, though my pulse betrayed me, thundering in my ears.He moved to the chair near the window and sat

ALEX’S POVThe soft light of the early morning filtered through the curtains of my office, but I couldn’t focus on the papers sprawled across my desk. My mind replayed the events of the night before like a broken record. Kelly’s tear-streaked face. The crack in her voice as she accused me of being someone she couldn’t trust. The way she looked at me as if I was a monster.I leaned back in my chair, running a hand over my face. I’d never felt this way before, this gnawing guilt about who I am. My world wasn’t built for softness or second chances, and yet, Kelly made me question everything. Her words last night had cut deeper than I wanted to admit.I hadn’t meant to scare her, but my tone, my actions—they were born of habit, of survival. She didn’t understand the darkness I lived in. How could she? She was light in a world of shadows, and I’d dragged her into my chaos.But I had to make it right.Standing, I paced the length of the room, my polished shoes echoing on the marble floor. A

KELLY'S POVThe silence of my room was deafening, broken only by the occasional rustle of leaves brushing against the window. I couldn’t shake the echo of Alex’s words from earlier tonight."By fifteen, I’d taken my first life."He had delivered the confession with a calmness that was chilling, but his eyes betrayed him. Beneath the steely exterior, there was pain, guilt, and a weariness I hadn’t fully grasped until that moment. The weight of those words pressed on my chest, making it hard to breathe.I lay sprawled on the bed, staring at the ceiling, willing sleep to come. But how could I sleep after hearing that? My thoughts raced, colliding into one another like waves crashing against a rocky shore.Who was Alex, really? Was he a protector, a savior who had risked everything to keep me safe? Or was he something darker, someone whose past was too dangerous to outrun?And yet, despite the turmoil in my mind, I couldn’t deny the pull I felt toward him. It wasn’t just his mysterious al

Alexander's POVThe early morning sun filtered through the blinds in my office, casting long streaks of light across the polished floor. I swirled the amber liquid in my glass, though it was far too early for bourbon. My thoughts were tangled, replaying last night’s meeting with Devon. Every word, every smirk, was etched in my mind like a puzzle begging to be solved.Finn strode in without knocking, his usual casual confidence exuding from every movement. He dropped a file on my desk before taking a seat across from me."Well?" he asked, leaning back. "How’d it go with Devon?""Exactly as I expected," I replied, setting the glass down. "He’s playing the long game, but it’s not as clever as he thinks. He wants to make his move, Finn, and he thinks I’m too distracted to see it coming."Finn frowned, tapping his fingers on the armrest. "And the part where he blatantly admitted to wanting your company? Bold. Too bold. What’s the play now?"I leaned forward, resting my elbows on the desk.

Kelly’s POVDaniela’s energy was like a storm when she entered a room—impossible to ignore. She swept into my space early the next morning, carrying a bag that seemed far too heavy for someone in heels that high.“Good morning, sunshine!” She announced, dropping the bag onto the floor with a loud thud.I groaned from my spot on the couch. “Why are you so loud? It’s barely 7 a.m.”“Because today is the day,” she said with a sly grin. “The day we turn you into a phoenix.”“What does that even mean?” I sat up, wincing as my shoulder protested the movement. The stab wound was healing, but it still ached, reminding me of the price I’d paid for being a best friend and a lovely girlfriend.Daniela perched on the armrest of the couch, her sharp eyes scanning me like a sculptor sizing up a block of marble. “It means you’re about to rise from the ashes, darling. No offense, but you look like someone who’s been through hell. I know I helped pick a line of clothes for you the last time, but I thi

Kelly’s POVThe word “killer” hung in the air like a noose tightening around my neck, suffocating and impossible to shake. Gina’s mocking voice echoed in my head, taunting me.Killer.But what she didn’t know, what I hadn’t even fully come to terms with, was that I didn’t regret it. Holly deserved every second of her ending. I wished I could go back, do it all over again, and this time relish in the satisfaction. The memory was horrifying, yes. But I’d be lying if I said I didn’t like the sense of justice that came with it; I could have been the one killed by Holly, but fate has made it this way.All of a sudden, a flashback of my foster father came to mind. Am I really a killer?. I might even have excuses for both circumstances, but what am I in the eyes of justice? 1After the call ended, I sat motionless, staring blankly at Alex’s phone in my hands. My mind raced as Gina’s words burrowed deeper into my psyche. How dare she throw Holly’s death in my face after everything she and Hol

Kelly’s POVMorning crept into the room slowly, its light soft and unobtrusive, as though even the sun knew I needed more time to heal. The warmth of Alex’s arms around me was the only thing keeping the haunting memories at bay. His steady breathing against my back reminded me that, despite everything, I was no longer alone in the nightmare. A morning not in that warehouse.I stirred slightly, careful not to wake him. The events of the warehouse were still fresh in my mind, replaying like a broken record. Those guards watching me urinate, depriving me of every sense of privacy. I couldn't even employ the thoughts of escaping; I felt helpless. I didn't know a tear had escaped my left eye. Holly’s wicked smirk, her threats, and the sickening sound of her crumpling to the floor filled my thoughts. My hands trembled at the memory of her blood on them, but what unsettled me most was the sense of relief I’d felt when it was over.“Kelly?” Alex’s voice broke into my thoughts, soft and laced

Alex's POVThe SUV screeched to a halt outside the sprawling hotel where Gina wanted to meet. I stepped out, a storm brewing inside me. Every instinct screamed to leave this woman to rot in whatever chaos she was spinning, but Kelly’s life was at stake. My fists clenched as I thought of Kelly’s pale face from the photo Gina had sent. My heart ached, and my rage bubbled dangerously beneath the surface.“Finn, status update,” I barked into the phone; immediately Finn picked up my calls as I strode into the hotel lobby.“We’re on it, boss. The informant gave us a list of four possible warehouses. We’re checking the first one immediately we get into Mexico,” Finn replied. His voice was calm, but I could hear the tension.“Good,” I muttered, glancing around the lobby. It looked almost the same as it had years ago when I first met Gina. Memories I’d tried to bury came rushing back uninvited, tangling with the chaos of my present reality. I didn't care about all that now; Kelly is all that m

Alex’s POVThe room was silent except for the sound of my fist slamming against the desk. Papers scattered everywhere, but I didn’t care. I couldn’t care less. Kelly was missing, and every passing second without her chipped away at my sanity; this was day 5 of her being kidnapped. I felt every connection I had was useless as nothing has led me to her yet. My constant fear, “What if they kill her? But I realized, on Daniela's words, whoever had her is using her as collateral; else I would have heard something. I had accounted for everybody found, and it wasn't hers; I tried to keep hopes alive.Finn stood across the room, his face tight with concern. He had been my right-hand man for years, loyal to a fault, but even he looked shaken. “I've never seen you this way, boss; you need to eat at the very least.”.“What if they are starving her?” I asked, “She has to be somewhere, Finn!” I growled, pacing back and forth. “We’re missing something. We’re overlooking something!”Finn sighed, run

Kelly's POVDarkness. That’s all I could see when I first opened my eyes. My head throbbed, each heartbeat a sharp, stabbing pain that seemed to echo in my skull. I tried to move, but the cold bite of metal cuffs around my wrists stopped me. The air was heavy and damp, with the faint stench of mold and old wood filling my nostrils. Wherever I was, it wasn’t anywhere Alex could find me easily. It was the second day.Panic clawed at my chest, threatening to choke me. Stay calm, I told myself. But the fear wouldn’t let go.Then I heard footsteps, slow, deliberate, echoing in the distance. My breath hitched as the sound grew closer. A door creaked open, flooding the room with dim yellow light. My eyes squinted against the sudden brightness, and I could just make out two figures walking toward me.Gina. Her striking face twisted into a malicious grin, and beside her, it was Holly, Her presence felt cold, as though cruelty radiated off her in waves. Two men followed them in.“Well, look who

Alex’s POVThe moment I realized Kelly was gone, something inside me snapped. The world blurred, and all I could hear was the deafening roar of my own heartbeat. The love of my life—the one person who gave me purpose—had been taken, and I hadn’t been there to stop it.I stood in the middle of the empty ballroom, her name escaping my lips like a desperate prayer. "Kelly!" My voice reverberated off the walls, but the silence that followed was a cruel reminder that she wasn’t there.Finn and Daniela rushed to my side, their faces etched with concern."Alex," Finn said, gripping my shoulder. "We’ll find her. You need to focus."But I couldn’t focus. Not when every second that passed felt like another inch she was pulled away from me. My chest heaved as anger and fear warred within me. I grabbed Finn by the collar, my voice a growl."Focus? She’s out there with God knows who, and you want me to focus?!""Alex!" Daniela’s voice cut through my fury like a blade. She stepped between us, her e

Kelly’s POVFrom the moment they grabbed me, I fought with every ounce of strength I had. My heart pounded like a war drum, adrenaline coursing through my veins as I thrashed and kicked against their unrelenting grip. Desperation clawed at me, each scream tearing from my throat with raw intensity. But the silky material of my dress, once a symbol of elegance, betrayed me, clinging to my skin and restricting my movements. Every step I tried to take became a stumble, the fabric twisting around my legs like a vice. Is this the world Alex has always tried to protect me from?.Before I could find my footing, a rough hand yanked me back with such force that I gasped, the air rushing out of my lungs. "Let me go!" I screamed, the words echoing into the night like a desperate prayer, I was scared, my strength wavering.One of the men snorted, his tone dripping with amusement. "Feisty, isn’t she?" I barely had time to process his mocking words before a sharp slap cracked across my face, sen

Alex’s POVThe night seemed to stretch endlessly after Gina’s dramatic exit. I stood near the entrance of the Riviera Hall, the faint buzz of party chatter filtering through the doors behind me, I had to leave my audience to make sure she was completely gone, Gina can be a crazy bitch. Finn approached, his footsteps steady, his sharp suit catching the light from the chandeliers above.“She’s gone,” Finn said quietly, his voice laced with reassurance. “Security escorted her off the premises, and they’ll make sure she doesn’t get back in. I had the guards stationed outside the gates just in case she decides to pull anything else, I'm sorry this happened”I let out a slow breath, the tension in my shoulders easing slightly. “Thanks, Finn. I needed that, don't be sorry, it's not my fault, my past is just not wanting to let go, all the more reasons I'm glad Kelly is besides me and all these tantrums doesn't move her”Finn reached into his pocket and pulled out his cigar case again. “You lo

Alex's POVThe night was finally here. The Riviera Hall stood proud and resplendent, bathed in the soft golden glow of fairy lights strung along the perimeter. A crimson carpet stretched from the entrance to the grand double doors, flanked by elegant floral arrangements that mirrored the theme: black and gold. The air buzzed with excitement, laughter, and the faint notes of classical music floating from the live band warming up inside.I stood outside the hall, adjusting the cuffs of my tailored black tuxedo with gold accents, feeling both anticipation and pride. Tonight wasn’t just about celebrating my love for Kelly, it was also a showcase of our ability to pull off something magnificent together I know it hasn't been so long I've known her, but no woman has ever locked me down like she does, her soul and love makes my heartless soul beat and pant after her.
