GABRIELLE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~I stared at Derek blankly as he led us towards the door, different thoughts were running through my mind, each leaving me even more confused than the last.Here was Derek who has only ever loved me, Lucian on the other hand had caused me much pain and there was no guarantee that he would change, that he would get to love me in a normal way.It should have been very easy to make a decision, if I walked out this door with Derek, then I probably would never see Lucian ever again, I wouldn't have to live in the constant fear that he would suddenly snap and hurt me. Despite knowing all these, my chest still felt too stuffy, my stomach was cramped with unease.
I felt as though I was betraying Lucian, I would be hurting him. I couldn't imagine how upset he would be, what if he abuses himself again? And what about me? Would I be able to go on with my life as though Lucian hadn't happened? I al

CHAPTER FIFTY EIGHTGABRIELLE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Time seemed to slow down as I watched Lucian enter and at the same time Derek pull on the trigger, my scream was useless, his left shoulder was now a bloodied color that left me horrified.At that moment, I met his expression, his eyes were blazing with fury instead of the pain I knew he must be feeling. His shoulder was bleeding, blood trickling down his arm, while my heart gnawed with concern, he also looked much more like a dark forbidding beast that had been set free and ready to attack.From the corner of my eyes, I saw Derek's finger tighten around the trigger, preparing to shoot again, I didn't think, I only acted. It was a foolish move but there wasn't another option."No don't! Please. " I rushed to stand in front of Derek, so I was positioned between the gun and Lucian. "Get out of the way!!" He yelled, his eyes told the rest of the things he didn't say, the confusion, f

CHAPTER FIFTY NINEGABRIELLE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~I couldn't believe I said that.I didn't know if I would have gone ahead with it, but I knew that I would not be able to live with myself after this if Derek died from this incident.I tightened my hand around the gun, my heart pounding faster and harder until it threatened to break out. All the while, I heard Lucian's stare and knew the exact moment he gave in. He was bloody furious at me but I also saw the anxiety he had not been able to hide, he didn't want to guess if I would actually do it or not and it worked to my advantage."Fine!" He spoke in between gritted teeth, shoving Derek away roughly but not before giving him a cheap knee to the gut.I did not rejoice on my victory, it was still far from over, the danger was still looming and currently striding towards me in heavy steps. "Don't come closer!" I yelled, taking a step backward.He

CHAPTER SIXTYGABRIELLE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~The tension in the car was too intense, it became too unbearable.I wanted to disappear under his prolonged hostile silent stare, time moved like a slow ticking bomb, the nervousness was killing me piece by piece. He should yell or question me so that I would brace myself of what to expect, but he did neither.The driver made a quick turn and I soon realized that the car wasn't heading towards our house.In fact, we were going farther away from it."Where are we going?" I asked nervously. My question was left unanswered. I looked at Lucian to realize that he was no longer looking at me, his head was tilted back against the car seat, his eyes were shut, his jaw was clenched tight, either to suppress anger or pain?? His chest rose and fell unevenly with each breath he took.He looked pale. A droplet of sweat ran down his temple.He wasn't alright

CHAPTER SIXTY ONEGABRIELLE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~A sudden movement jerked my eyes open from a short slumber, I recalled that I had sat beside Lucian, somehow I must have managed to fall asleep.My gaze drifted upward to be met by a pair of stormy grey eyes, his stare was cold. Brutal. Unforgiving.I shot to my feet and took a step backward, almost stumbling to the floor in the process.He didn't say a word, but he didn't need to. The fierce hostility in his eyes told me that hell was about to break loose.I inhaled nervously under his watchful gaze and decided to speak first."How long have you been awake, how do you f..feel?"His silence made increased my worry, I didn't realize that a small fearful sound escaped from my throat when he ripped off the IV drip connected to his hand.His stormy eyes were like a brewing hurricane, one that was soon about to be unleashed, and I didn't want to

CHAPTER SIXTY TWOGABRIELLE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~A look of triumph flickered across his features, his fingers softly caress my face as though he thought this was a dream that would fade away if he held me any tighter."Tell me again." He demanded, his voice was thick, his gaze burning into mine, devouring all of me, leaving me no option but to give in to his demand."I love you...It's only you Lucian, you don't need to doubt that." My voice was no more than a whisper, each word was torn from out of my very soul. I was consumed by the power of his stare which turned several shades darker as his pupils dilated, his grip on me tighter, much more confident as his lips met mine hard, making me whimper from the fierceness of his ownership.He only kissed me deeper, tongue and all. The fire started in my chest, slowly spreading the warmth all over my body until a muffled moan escaped my mouth.He pulled back a bit so our f

CHAPTER SIXTY THREEGABRIELLE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"Come here." Lucian murmured as his fingers wrapped around my upper arms, I snapped out of my thoughts and thought that it was best if I did not allow myself to be upset over something I couldn't have changed.I gave Lucian a questioning stare when he started to lead us towards the bathroom. He was the one who needed a shower, not me."Since you mentioned your wifely duties to me, don't you think that you should finish it? Especially now that I'm weak and unable to care for myself." He pushed the bathroom door opened and entered inside, pulling me along.I stared at him incredulously."I didn't mean it like that and you know it! I never said that you were incapable!" I argued."Wait...You want me to bathe you?" I bit my lips anxiously not knowing why I was suddenly nervous."Yes, I. Want. You. To. Wash. Me." He called out each word separately,

CHAPTER SIXTY FOUR~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"You are mine!" He growled, flipping me on my stomach so that I was on all fours against the bed. I could feel him positioned on my entrance and in one hard surge, he was inside of me. Stretching me to the brim. I groaned at the feel of him, a small pinch of pain, combined with a surge of pleasure drove me insane with even more need.I hopelessly clung onto the sheets as he set a punishing pace.Our flesh slapped together, making wet erotic noises that echoed in the room as he thrusts harder and faster."You like that, don't you!? Who does this body belong to!" He pants, delivering two quick successive slaps to my ass cheeks when I delayed in answering.I whimpered my complaint, starting to reach out my hand to massage the spot when he barked out a warning.His finger further nudged my thighs apart, from this angle, he seemed to be sinking deeper, harder, and faster int

CHAPTER SIXTY FIVEGABRIELLE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Positive!It read for the third time, there couldn't have been any mistakes.I stared at the plus sign on the small pregnancy test.Pregnant!My hand unconsciously reached to touch my stomach, caressing slowly. I didn't feel any change, was I really carrying a life inside of me? One that was created by Lucian and me.After several weeks of morning sickness, I decided to take a pregnancy test to confirm what I had already suspected when I realized that my period was about two months delayed."I'm pregnant! " I repeated aloud, this wasn't a dream, my eyes teared up as I realized that this was reality! Lucian and I are going to have a baby! Would it be a boy or a girl? Excitement slowly warmed through my body, my heart had never felt so full. I smiled through the tears that stung in my eyes.Oh my God! This was unbeliev

CHAPTER SEVENTY-EIGHTLUCIAN~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Months went past, soon it was spring once again, we had lived the past months to the fullest and I could say it was the best of my entire life.I lay in bed fully awake and conscious of my wife's warmth and familiar smell. It was the best fucking place to be. Not until the sound of low whimpers which soon transformed into full-blown cries reached my ears. It seemed Brie heard it as well as her eyes fluttered open almost immediately."I'll get her baby, you stay in bed." I kissed her forehead, kicking the blankets off my body as I walked right to the crib only a few feet away.There she was.Our precious Jasmine. The name suited her just right. She was the only perfect and innocent thing I had a hand in creating. Her eyes were shiny with tears, her little face was red from all the crying as I gently picked her up and her pink blanket. My protective fatherly instincts

CHAPTER SEVENTY SEVENGABRIELLE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~It started off as another dream. I could see Lucian calling out to me, his lips were moving but I couldn't make out his words. I was pleading with him not to leave me while holding on to him."I won't." He murmured in my ears and it dawned in my brain, Lucian had never spoken in my dreams before..."Brie, open your eyes!"Suddenly, the grip I had onto him felt too physical, all too real. With a gasp, my eyes popped open, and then I saw him.Lucian!I froze. Staring at him, my heart pounding hard and loud against my rib cage.He was sitting beside me, looking very much awake and vital. This had to be one of my many dreams, or my head was playing cruel games with me.I blinked twice, my vision dimmed and cleared but he was still here, staring at me. A bandage was wrapped across his head, he looked slightly pale but his grey eyes ha

CHAPTER SEVENTY SIXGABRIELLE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~I collected fresh flowers from the garden as I had been doing for the past two weeks. Has it been two weeks already since my world fell apart?Yesterday, I had visited the cemetery along with mom, we were all going through a tough phase, Phoebe was still convinced that I was responsible for our father's death, we haven't seen or heard from her after dad's funeral service. Mom told me that she was only confused and grieving at this stage of her life, and it was easier for her to just put the blame on another person but I had also been thinking about it every single night and hated to admit that if I had allowed Lucian to kill Derek back then, he would have been beside me right now.Words could express how much I miss him and it hurts so much.I finished arranging the flowers and walked to join Loretta and Devin."Anyone could have done that, why do yo

CHAPTER SEVENTY FIVELUCIAN~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~It was too late, there were already inside the building.Fuck!The cold rational part of my mind registered one thing, there was nowhere to run!They were no doubt searching for us across all the rooms right now!"We need a plan now!" Devin spoke.There wasn't much time to think but the last thing I wanted was for Vladimir to use my sister as leverage against us, or worse, she could end up injured or dead.I met Loretta's panicked gaze, she shouldn't be going through this all over again. I doubted she would ever forget this event and had never been so thankful that I had found out Brie just in time and sent her home.A mixture of rage and panic filled me as I suddenly thought if I didn't make it out of here, I would never get to see Brie ever again, never hold our baby in my arms.No!All the more reason I had to get out of

Tension was building its root inside of me until I felt like I would burst from it all.I inhaled deeply closing my eyes, there was no option left but to believe Lucian and wait for him to return unharmed."What the..." The startling sound left my mouth when the car suddenly screeched to a halt.My head spun to meet Devin's grave expression and knew instantly that something was wrong, I was almost terrified to ask."What happened? What's going on?"Devin stared at me, his expression filled with urgency and uncertainty. "One of our men reported to have spotted Vladimir, why would he arrive in New York all of a sudden?"Vladimir Petrov? Why would Lucian's rival be here, dad and Vladimir were part

CHAPTER SEVENTY THREEGABRIELLE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"You have to take me with you." I said, his reaction was immediate."No, you are staying here" He asserted, frowning.I had only an hour to reach the location Derek had given to me. I was to come alone or he promised to kill everyone I cared about.Derek seemed to have lost it, I was scared for Lucian's safety and my family's as well. I wanted to meet Derek, maybe I could make him change his mind, things don't have to end tragically between us."If he doesn't see me, he's going to kill them! We can't risk it, Lucian!" I urged as he yelled something to Devin about preparing the car. I started to speak again when he grabbed my arm, tilting my chin to meet his gaze."I'm not about to use you and our baby as bait!" He glares at me. "You are going to sit your pretty ass down here while I go get the job done! I will be back in an hour and I promise you that nothi

CHAPTER SEVENTY TWOGABRIELLE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"Please wait here! don't go anywhere." Devin told me."But..." I started, but he was already gone, I watched anxiously as he blended with the slight crowd.What was that sound all about? Why was Derek here? Was Loretta alright?I was too nervous to standby and wait any longer, I hurried after him, and at the same time, I could hear the sound of sirens.I finally found Devin, he said the first thing I noticed was the bloodstain on his hand which spiked my anxiety, I looked behind him but there was no sign of Loretta, nor Fred."What happened? Where are they?" I barely finished talking when my eyes fell on the paramedics walking out with a stretcher, I couldn't tear my eyes away, not even a blink. The person lying unconscious was Fred. Was he dead?god no!Without a word, Devin grabbed my arm, hurrying us out of the mall and more security that wer

CHAPTER SEVENTY ONE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~For the next few hours, I was anxious. I called mom from time to time but there was no positive update, how could my father and Phoebe just disappear without a trace.Mom spoke that Phoebe had gone for her dancing classes but had sneaked away from the men that were supposed to protect her. This wasn't the first time she had done that, only this time, she never returned home. As for dad, his assistant said that he had insisted on leaving alone after receiving an urgent call.I couldn't help the worry that gnawed my insides, we weren't close but they were still family after all. I only prayed that they were alright where they are.I thought about telling Lucian but quickly decided against it. What if it wasn't anything serious? My mother had always worried about the slightest things. Who knew, Phoebe might be having a hangover after partying hard, she might be at one of her friends' places. Then what ab

CHAPTER SEVENTYGABRIELLE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~That evening, we lay down together, and Lucian switched off the light, enclosing us in the darkness. I was lying on my sides when he pulled me closer to him so my head is pillowed on his chest.He appeared to be in deep thoughts and this was one of those times when I would give anything to read through his mind. Draping a hand across his ribcage, I closed my eyes, even though I was not feeling sleepy."There's something about me that you need to know, I probably should have told you sooner..." His voice was barely audible, his warm breath tickling the side of my cheek made my eyes flutter open. I lifted my chin to meet his stare. His tone and stare held every bit of seriousness and my heart was suddenly hammering in my chest, my mind thinking of all the possibilities that could make him be this serious."My mother was the daughter of one of the men in my father's organization, t
