Julius's POVEverything changed after that encounter. Vera has been withdrawn from everyone for the past two weeks. She doesn't talk to anyone. She doesn't open her doorI wanted to kill Nina for telling Vera the way she did. I had been aware ever since the party but her parents made me promise not to tell her that they would do so themselves. But that bitch Nina had to come and ruine everything. She broke my Vera. My doll. After a few minutes of Vera crying her heart out into my shirt and shaking,she stood up with an emotionless look on her face and walked into her room locking the door behind her, and that was how it stayed. I tried severally to get her to come out or at least talk to me but all I could hear were quiet sobs and it broke my heart. I couldn't hold my doll when she was breaking. I couldn't protect her from what she was doing through. And it all made me so mad and angryI had to resist the urge to throw Nina into one of our cells. Instead I sent her back ho
Third person POVVera's eyes fluttered open and she rubbed them a little. Looking at Julius peacefully sleeping she smiled to herself. Tracing his abs and chest with the tip of her fingers she just took notice of his rose tattoo at his side"Morning gorgeous"She tried to pretend like she was asleep but was already caught"M-morning"Her cheeks turned crimson"I see you were admiring my tattoo""No.I mean yes. It's beautiful""I got it five years ago. It was supposed to be a reminder that love and war were the two things in my life hence the rose and the sword but the sword dominated "Vera just took in the information with a clueless face. "Vera is Julius here.... "Aldonis drifted off when he saw them in bed butt ass naked"Shit! "Vera panicked and hid her face in Julius's chest and he threw the covers over her properly "It's not hard to fucking knock!! ""Sorryyyyy!!! "He shouted rushing out Julius looked down and laughed at Vera's bright red face. It was as red as her h
Third person POV"Come on!... "Vera basically pulled Julius along with her through the mall's hallways stopping at every shop to stare through the windows but end up not even going in. She pulled him up to a dress store and stopped gawking at a gorgeous red backless gown that was on display as the newest piece"If you like it we can buy it doll"She bit on her lower lip thinking"No.It's not that pretty"Julius knowing very well that she was lying took her hand and pulled her in to the store. Immediately he stepped foot into the storeEveryone stopped what they were doing and just stared at him. His presence demanded attentionA woman rushed up to him with a rather unnecessary smile plastered on her face"Good day Mr ChrysanthosMay we help you with anything? "Vera watched in shock as his whole demeanor changed. He stood firm and straight as he looked around the store, she could feel the same power radiating off him like it was when they first met. He always found a way to mak
Vera's POVI thought I would have time to convince myself that everything was going to be okay but I didn't. I found out the dinner was tomorrow and I was freaking out. What if his family didn't like me, What if they hated red headsBasically I was an anxious mess. Lexi had tried severally to convince me that I was just worrying for no reason and she was sure they would love me but I couldn't take her words for it. I would have to meet his two uncles from his father's side , their kids and wives. Julius's mother was an only child but her mother was coming as well. So I had a lot of people to try and please.. "You're worrying for nothing doll. I'm sure they would love you, you don't have to try too hard"Julius spoke so comfortably as he snacked on some popcorn I held in my hand. We were watching a movie trying to get my mind off the fact that the dinner was in the next 3 hours. I sat between his open legs backing him while his head was rested on mine as he stole my popcorn
Unknown person's POV"Where are they right now""In their family home boss""They are enjoying themselves""Good"I smiled, knowing well they won't expect what was coming for them. Their biggest mistake was forgetting me and forgetting I'm a force to be reckon with. "Keep an eye on themWait for my signal""Yes boss"Putting down the phone I felt the satisfaction of being a step closer to getting rid of my enemies. Julius thought locking me away in a cell and torturing me will bring me down for good. He's really blind. And that Vera was really a piece of candy. The memory of her in that red and sexy dress never left my mind. Julius really didn't deserve her and I was going to make sure she becomes mine. I never got anything I deserved. I had to struggle and after everything I ended up below Julius. I will make him and his entire family pay for everything. I will make him watch as I take what is his and then I will kill him. Vera's POVI stirred in a strong per of arms. Kn
Vera's POVJulius wasn't joking when he said we were going to play baseball. After taking a shower together we slipped into polo shirts and jeans. I threw my hair into a high ponytail and slapped on a face cap. When we came down the whole family was already in the garden. It wasn't like any professional game. It consisted of two positionsOne for the server And the other the hitter or I think that was what it was calledThere were four teams. One with Julius and IOne with mother and Aunt Patricia and Uncle Richard Another with mother and Aunt Janice and the last with Denzell and Uzzaih. I was so scared. I had never played baseball in my life and here I was standing with the bat in my hand. It didn't help matters that my palms were sweaty. Denzell stood few feets away from me and I took in a deep breath as he served. I swung the bat with my eyes shut and I missed. I looked down as tears threatened to fall. "Come on Vera! "Mother shouted from under one of the canopies.
Julius's POVI smiled at Vera's cuteness as she ran into the house. I gave her a few minutes to herself before going in after her. Guessing she would have gone to the kitchen for some water, I went there and I stopped when I saw shattered glass on the floor and an empty bottle of water on the table. My heart started racing as I stormed out of the kitchen yelling out Vera's name. I had this painful feeling that something was terribly wrongMy yelling brought everyone back in to the house"What's wrong Julius? "Uncle Richard walked up to me placing his hand on my shoulder"VeraShe-she's gone""Gone? What do you mean by gone? ""I don't know mother. I walked into the kitchen and there was glass shattered everywhere. I just have this bad feeling"I was panicking as I ran a hand through my hair"Calm down sonWe'll check all over the house"They split up to check and I ran up to our room hoping by some miracle she would be having a shower or something. But my heart sank when she
Julius's POVI got out in an abandoned farm house. I walked in watching my back intently. The floors were all rotten and creepyEvery step I took no matter how quiet made a noise. All of a sudden I felt something heavy hit me at the back of my head and I fell down on my knees groaning. I looked up to see Cyrus. My eyes drifted to Vera who he had tied up on the floor. She sat there with her legs and hands bounded together. "Doll are you okay? ""I'm okay. Why did you come? ""I had to save you"Seeing her tear stained cheeks made my blood boil as I launched forward at Cyrus but immediately he pulled out a gun pointed at Vera I stopped dead in my tracks. "You didn't think I'd invite you here without coming prepared did you? ""What do you-""Shut the fuck up! Don't ask me what I wantYou locked me up and put me through 3rd degree torture and you have the balls to ask me what the fuck you did!!?Your an ass you know that? I worked under your family for some many years and what
