Kelly POVIs it the drugs? I'm starving like mad, but I've made up my mind: till I leave here, I won't be eating anything.Alex opens the door almost immediately. “You know you should eat, yes?” “I need to leave this room, no, this house; I need a change of clothes and undies.”“That shouldn't be a problem. I can get someone to shop for new things for you in brands and in dozens.“Show off your money for all I care, but my will stands.” I scoffed.“Currently, Kelly, I need you to be honest with me; I need you to tell me who attacked you and why they did it.”“I can't trust you. Don't you get it? How many times do you want me to repeat myself? And in all honesty, I'm beginning to feel like you kidnapped me.”He turned and looked at me like I was crazy.“Don't give me that look; this is the 21st century, and you're acting like a mafia or some sort of delusional boss. I have rights, and I could call the cops on you.” I said this trying to act like I wasn't scared he would get mad at me

ALEXANDER POV“Davon?” I thought as I made for the bottle of 1995 Leroy Musigny Grand Cru.“You know Davon is not a name worth pouring a glass for, right?” Daniela said as she walked into my home office.“I don't pour glasses for no man, Daniela.” I chuckled. “I think all my staff know my bottles, and all of you try to profile me once you see me with one, but it's not that deep; something might have just made me want that glass.”.“So what makes you want this bottle right now?” she said, stressing the “want.”.“It's a classic, you know, that's why.” “Boss, Devon has been on foreign soil for a long while hiding his identity; we all know him being here and making it obvious he is here means something.”.“It could mean a fresh start.”.“Do you believe what you just said? yourself, don't you think it has to do with the presence of this young Miss Kelly in your life?”“What are you trying to say?”.“I mean, he's betrayed you before, and for all I care, he could be here because someone hi

ALEXANDER POV…” since the driver is working with us, we can predict his movements and catch him off guard.”“True, but Devon isn’t someone who is easily caught off guard. Keep the driver monitored and see if he can give us more intel. I don’t want to make any rash moves until we know why Devon is back and what he’s after.”Daniela chimed in. “It’s likely that Devon’s return ties into Kelly somehow. Her attackers might be random, but what if they are not? You were not in a prior relationship; it was a one-night stand, and see how her effect ripples. This could be a strategic move to bait you.”“You think someone used her to draw me out?” I asked, swirling my drink thoughtfully.“It’s a possibility. Devon has always been one for elaborate schemes. If Kelly’s presence in your life is known to him, he might see her as a weak spot.”I leaned back in my chair, running a hand through my hair. “If that’s true, it means we’re already compromised. She might not even realize what danger she’s i

KELLY’S POV Finally he's letting me in on what's up.“Devon is almost close to the angel of death, just that I'm worse than him.”.“You're worse? How”.“I'm worse in the sense that I can kill him.” I became scared; what's all this prank?“You're joking, right?” I asked, hoping he'll laugh or say he was just pulling my leg, but nothing; he looked at me point-blank.“From your story, I'm certain you're not affiliated with Devon, so I have to keep you hidden; he has used my weakness when it comes to women I loved, and he hit me so bad“.“Have you tried forgiving and letting go?”.He laughed dryly and said, “Not in my world; we don't forgive; we make them pay.” I swallowed an invisible substance that produced the rising tension in me.“But you do know that with what you just said, I no longer feel safe with you.“We fell silent for a while. “I'll protect you at all costs, Kelly. Your protection will be certain with me, and I'll make sure hell goes empty and men lose their nuts before a s

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 & Kelly’s POVA Night to RememberThe auction night arrived like a whispered promise, an elegant affair draped in exclusivity, where power dressed itself in silk and ambition clinked against crystal glasses. It was held at a private estate in the hills, a place chosen for its air of discretion. Security was tight, invitations scarce, and every guest was a shark in designer suits or gowns that cost more than some made in a year.Alex stood at the entrance, the epitome of calm power in his tailored black suit. The weight of the night rested on his shoulders, but for once, he wasn’t carrying it alone. Kelly was beside him, her confidence as sharp as the diamond-studded heels she wore. Her beauty was her accessory. Her midnight blue dress hugged her figure in a way that made more than a few heads turn, but her eyes, sharp, calculating, and always ten steps ahead kept them at bay. For she was the Don's wife, a lioness."Ready?" she murmured, adjusting his tie with the familiarity of a

Alex’s POVThe evening was settling in, casting a golden hue over the hospital room. The air smelled like antiseptic and vanilla cake, an odd combination, but fitting for the warmth that surrounded us. My mom was still gushing over Ivy, Richard was side-eyeing Denise like she was his personal moon, and Nora? Well, she was busy sneaking extra icing off the cake when she thought no one was watching, like a kidKelly sat beside me, her fingers absentmindedly playing with the sleeve of my shirt as she chatted with my mom. It was one of those rare moments where everything felt… steady.Then my phone buzzed.I fished it out of my pocket and glanced at the screen. Concierge.I got up, stepping out onto the hospital’s private balcony. The air was crisp, a reminder that the seasons were shifting. I answered on the third ring."Mr. Delano," the deep voice on the other end greeted smoothly. "Everything is in place."A slow smirk formed on my lips. "As expected.""The shipment arrives in exactly

Kelly’s POVFrom when I gave birth I counted Ivy's age like I was paid for it. And now the little me is 1 week.I watched Alex take a deep breath, his eyes unfocused for a moment as he stared at the system in front of him.His fingers twitched, and I could tell he was lost in thought. I didn't want to interrupt but he's supposed to know."Our baby is a week old today," I reminded him softly, reaching for his hand.He blinked and let out a deep breath. "One week already?, she's growing so fast, wait you think I forgot?" His voice was distant, like he was trying to grasp the reality of it."Yeah," I whispered, squeezing his fingers. "Can you believe it? Ivy’s been with us for a whole week, yes you forgot babe."Alex ran a hand over his face and chuckled under his breath. "Feels like just yesterday you were yelling at me in the hospital for breathing too loudly."I smirked. "You were breathing too loudly."“There's no such thing as breathing loudly, the labour process simply made you easi

Alex’s POVI stared at Kelly, waiting for her to say she was joking.She wasn’t.“You must be joking when you said you want to see the gang. I'm correct right?” I repeated slowly, watching her carefully. She should be joking.“No I'm not, I want to be there, I want to meet people you're close to, don’t you think if you had related more with them and showed them your family before they saw it on the news they might feel they had a place in your home?” Her voice was firm, her eyes locked onto mine with that unshakable determination that I both admired and feared.I ran a hand over my face, exhaling heavily. “Kelly, that’s not happening, I'm not bringing you into this world.”Her arms crossed. “Why not?”I let out a dry laugh. “Because, sweetheart, my gang is not exactly a ‘bring-your-wife-to-work’ kind of place, and once you're in it's a lifestyle no going back”She arched an eyebrow. “And yet, you’re trying to convince me you’re done with them, and that you want to leave, how do you pl

Kelly’s POVThe warm water cascaded down my back, but it did nothing to wash away the frustration boiling inside me. Alex thought he could light a few candles, make the room cozy, and I’d just… what? Melt into his arms? Pretend like everything was fine?No.He was keeping secrets again. I could see it in his eyes, the way he avoided certain questions, the tension in his shoulders whenever I brought up anything remotely personal.I stood under the shower and allowed the water just pour before I shut off the shower, dried myself off, and wrapped a towel around me before stepping out of the bathroom.Alex was sitting on the edge of the bed, elbows on his knees, staring at me like he expected me to say something.I didn’t say anything or acknowledge his presence.Instead, I walked straight to the dresser, picked up my lotion, and started applying it to my arms as if he weren’t even in the room, thank God for Ivy, putting her to sleep required little to no effort there was nothing I needed

Alex’s POVThe night air was thick with tension. I had let Kelly go without a fight, but that didn’t mean I wasn’t worried. I knew she needed space, but I couldn’t let her slip away too far. Not when everything around me was beginning to unravel.I've had security follow her, and when I confirmed it was Emily's house, I told the security to retreat allowing her to breathe, she'll be more pissed if she found out I sent security to baby sit her.I leaned back in my chair, swirling the amber liquid in my glass as I waited. The concierge would be here soon, and I needed this meeting to go exactly as I planned. I didn’t want him thinking I was desperate, even though, in some ways, I was. I needed a way out or a middle ground, I didn't want Kelly thinking I'm a fraud, her judging eyes made me feel less of a man, like I'm not the man she bargained for.Kelly leaving made me uneasy, but not because I thought she’d run. No, it was because she might start asking questions I wasn’t ready to answ

Kelly’s POVI didn’t know how to feel. Was I to feel bad that the venture was going sideways?Alex had left the room, his words still ringing in my ears. I run a drug gang.My husband, the father of my child, the man I had promised to spend my life with, wasn’t just some successful businessman with a dark past. He was still in it. Still deeply entangled in a world I wanted no part of. Worst of it now is that his boys might be after him. Am I in some soap opera? What's all these?I sank onto the bed, staring at the vanity mirror, my reflection betraying the storm inside me. My fingers tremble slightly as I rubbed my temple. Was that where all the money came from? Had I really been this blind? The cars, the security, the late nights… I had assumed the worst was behind him. But I was wrong. What if he's still a nightmare to some people? I'm married to a Don!! I laughed out my anxiety.I wanted to call Daniela. She had been my closest friend, my sister in all but blood. But then a horrify

Alex’s POVThe moment I opened my eyes, I knew I had slept longer than I intended. The room was dimly lit, the warm glow of the bedside lamp casting soft shadows on the walls. I blinked a few times, trying to shake off the haze of sleep. My body still ached, but it was manageable, just a dull throbbing reminder of the bullet wound.I remembered my first bullet it was by my dad, I had fucked up a mission alongside other members and he shut me, wasn't deep. After all the corrections and people thought he was heartless, he called me into his room and gave me a nice meal, and said that was his duty as a boss, and breaking bread with me was his duty as my father. I loved him.Finn must have left hours ago.I exhaled and ran a hand through my hair, realizing something that made my jaw clench. Kelly really hadn’t come back.Damn, she was that mad at me? She didn't even care if I needed her?. How do I appease this goddess?.With a grunt, I sat up and immediately regretted it. A wave of dizzin

I shot at him the moment the doctor left and he asked us to allow him rest“I'll be here to keep an eye on him and await further instructions on what we were on before he got shot”.“Are you high right now? Isn't it enough that he was shot you still want further instructions from him on what?, some mission you went on with him looking like a grim reaper?”.“He's going to the master bedroom, I'm his wife, I'll be beside him”.“Kelly it's not that deep you need to calm down”.“What's not deep about a gun shot?
