Killian's POVToday isn't going as expected. Today's my brother's bachelor's party and it is supposed to be a good day. Well, it started off as a good day. Naomi spent the night, all naked and warm in my bed. We didn't make love, I just pulled her close to me and held on to her, really tight and close like she was going to slip away.Then, she got ready this morning to leave for work and I kissed her when she wanted to take her bath. I didn't let her touch anything, nothing at all and I bathed her myself, while whispering countless I love you's to her. And I confessed to her how much I love her and how I didn't want to lose her. Naomi was taken aback by my confessions, but she didn't say anything. She just held me and whispered her own reassuring promises into my ear. Before we came to my house last night together after having dinner with her family, which strangely turned out great, we stopped by her apartment so that she could grab something to wear to work today. Naomi wanted to t
Killian's POV Finally, we arrive in Australia and a Limousine is already waiting for us. Standing next to the car is Scott, an old acquaintance and a driver. " Holy shit. This is sexy." Preston says from behind me. Scott approaches me and shakes my hand. " It's nice to have you Mr. Black." " Thank you, Scott." " Welcome to Australia." Scott says and leads us to the limousine. The driver opens the door and I enter, followed by my brother and the rest of the guys. Scott joins us and the driver shuts the door. The next minute, we're in the move driving down the road and past the beautiful trees. " Why Australia, Kil?" Keith asks. " I guess it got what I was looking for. Plus, when was the last time you visited your home country? What the fuck am I saying? We all grew up in the US and you've never been to your home country, Keith. Including you Preston." I say, flicking my gaze between my brother and my cousin. " Wow. This is beautiful. And you may be right we've never bee
" You cannot do that!" Andrew says, pointing his stupid fingers at me. The tour guides managed to get him out of the water before saltwater crocodiles could get him. That lucky fuck. " And you cannot talk about my woman like that." I point back. " Guys. Just fucking apologize to each other and let's continue our tour." Preston says. Torrent and Angela stand at a corner watching with interest. Raymond just stands aside and shakes his head at our behavior. I'm pissed. " Why should I apologize? He tossed me out the boat, remember?"" That's because you talked about his woman rudely, Andrew. You can't do that. You're married, take your eyes off of people's women. Killian's own to be precise."" And, one more crass comment about my girl and I'm gonna knock your teeth out." I glare at Andrew as I walk ahead of the others. This day is really going as planned. Keith catches up to me, making me slow my strides. " I'm sorry about Andrew."" No, I'm sorry Keith. I'm your brother and your
Killian" Fuck, this shit hurts like a bitch." Andrew groans, with an ice pack in his hand as he presses it on his head. He's sitting on the single couch while leaning back on it. I stand by the transparent window as I stare out at the compound. We're in the hotel suite we booked for Keith's bachelor's party. " Stop whining like a child. It's just a little sting." Preston says. I smile and shake my head as I turn around to look at them. Preston is drinking a beer as Andrew glares at him. " I should stop whining like a child? Are you fucking kidding me? Can you even hear yourself? I got stung by a fucking bee!" Andrew is being overdramatic. He's always overdramatic." You got stung by a bee because you messed with its honey pot. Why would you do that?" Raymond says as he walks to stand beside me. " Well, fuck all of you. Where the hell is Keith? Is this night over?" Andrew asks, tossing his ice pack on the table. " He's taking a shower. Probably trying to get away from you." I
Naomi's POV" So you don't want to tell me about this mystery guy that you're now dating right? And come to think of it, you didn't tell me why you and Lucky ended. I thought he was a great guy." I say to Bianca on Saturday morning as we do kitchen chores together while cooking.Bianca stalls time as she stands on the other side of the kitchen counter and wipes a napkin on the marble island in the middle of the kitchen. " Bia." I call, stretching my hand to the other side of the island to flick her nose. " Ouch." She whines as she finally looks at me. I chuckle and roll my eyes, happy that I finally got her attention." What are you ashamed of? He's a guy with a child, so what? I'm dating my boss, remember?" I dry the last plate and keep it in the rack as I turn around to look at Bianca." Lucky and weren't just feeling it. And you're right, he's a great guy, just not what I am looking for. And this new guy, there's not much to talk about. He's great, and we are still getting to k
Killian's POVIt's Sunday, and me and the guys came back from Australia this morning. I haven't had time to see Naomi. The minute I returned to the country, I made sure to call Liam, the private detective I hired to find information about this strange woman so that we could check her address. I needed to see her even though I wasn't sure how I was going to react. I just needed to see who was threatening to harm Naomi.As we stand on the quiet street of a downtown neighborhood, I ask myself if this is real? She can't be that dumb to write down her real address when mailing those letters. No one's that dumb. The neighborhood is far from the neighborhood I live in. This neighborhood is poorly managed, with cheap houses and even the street lights obviously don't work. Raymond's with me. He decided to tag along and I let him." Her name is Lily Sanders. I mean according to the name she's been using when sending you those letters. Do you know any Lily Sanders."" I don't." I answer absentmi
Naomi's POV" Which one of these dresses says, I'm decent, just a little flirt, and I would really like to get on with my man tonight?" I ask Bianca as I raise two dresses up. These dresses are from top brands and labels that I've only seen on TV and celebrities and I never thought I would wear any of these. Killian had gotten me a personal shopper and she bought me all of these dresses, shoes, bags, and even jewelries. I complained about him spending too much money on me, but Killian held my face and whispered I deserved every inch of it. Each time I open my closet, I still can't believe I own any of these clothes. The shoes and bags were mostly from Chanel and one other brand in Paris. Now when I walk through the elevators of KB TECH in new designer clothes every other day, I notice the women now stare at me with respect, like I actually belong and not just some gold digging whore. " Hmm…" Bianca examines both dresses. " I'll go with the lemon. It's slutty and decent enough. You'
Naomi's POV" Oh, my God, mom." I mutter under my breath the minute I step into the hospital ward with three other patients lying on their separate hospital beds. I spot Antonio at once, and sitting next to him is Grace. Antonio sees me and stands up at once with tired eyes and a sympathetic smile. His eyes shift from my form to the intimidating man striding behind me. " Hey." Antonio greets me as he hugs me. I stare at my mom lying still on the hospital bed behind Antonio and sigh. We pull apart and he addresses Killian with a greeting." Hey, man."" Hey."" It seems I interrupted something." Antonio gestures to our outfit. " Just dinner." Killian simply states." Is she doing okay?"" Hopefully." Antonio mutters with a sigh. " Hi, Naomi." Grace greets me. I totally forgot she was sitting right there all along. I sidestep Antonio and give her a gentle smile. " Hi, Grace."I take a seat on mom's hospital bed as I stare at her sleeping form." What happened to her?" I ask with a
