Chapter 75~Dominic~Storming out of my cabin, leaving chris behind, I shut the door behind me in rage with a loud thud and made for my bedroom.getting to my bedroom, I did the same violence to my door. my fists and jaw clenched and unclenched on their own. rage and anger cursed through me. I needed nothing else but to just snap heads until there's no more heads to snap.why the fuck was she driving me this crazy! why the fuck did I care this much about her!? I am surely going to make her pay!"stay back to prove that I am not head over heels for her, huh?" I groaned hoarsely between my gritted teeth and tight jaw as I stared at myself through the mirror on my closet. fighting the urge to crash it into a million pieces with my fists.stepping closer to that mirror, I peered intently at myself at the mirror, watching how pale my tanned skin had become from my face. how restless I had become because of that little fragile being, how worked up I got with the slightest thought of her get
Chapter 76~Dom~"Boss, there's a message from the boys that the princess and your woman had gone to a Cinema since two hours ago. the boys had been trying to reach Chris who wasn't conscious enough to get the call and I just did. they're waiting for your response and orders." Austin, informed me with his head lowered as he walked up to me in the living room space where I was giving orders and watching already five of my Men, carrying out the orders.my brows furrowed in anger as my fists clenched and unclenched at the news I had just heard. Nelly.....what exactly was she up to for fuck's sake!gritting my teeth violently, a treacherous scowl plastered visibly on my face before chugging the entire content of liquor in my glass down in one gulp in anger and fury before springing up and making my way out of there but halted just before finally exiting the living room."Austin?" I called him who was still following behind me without batting an eye at the naked people in the living room.
Chapter 77~Alicia~"hic! oh no! no no...shit! Nelly!!" I whimpered as I buried my head between my thighs with my hand securely wrapped around my head in defense as I tried to hide myself from the ghosts and vampires that played across the screen. trembling vigorously as I engulfed myself in a tight hug, desperately trying to protect myself with my little frail hands.I hated horror movies right from my childhood. especially Ghosts. it might be childish but I could pee my pants just from watching those movies but surprisingly, it came pass when i had to witness the sad and gore scene of my father's head being snapped off cleanly with a dagger as if he was a chicken.trembling harder, I teared up badly even before noticing it as the images of that night flashed across my subconsciousness and the smiling face of my father, who would go to any lengths to protect his loved ones, me, especially, flashed across my head. did he really deserve the pain he went through? did he really step on to

Chapter 78~Alicia~The suiting Rays of the morning sun was already peeking through the horizon and peeked through the window, reflected on my face, seeping through my serene subconsciousness. writhing on the bed to get sheltered from the sun, my eyes snapped open as soon as I heard the chirping sounds of the birds and it sounded like my favorite melody.with a hearty beam on my face, I got off the bed and ran to my dressing mirror where I had placed those things, the cause of my happiness-my phone and PC.giggling softly, I grabbed my phone from the table and scrolled through it as i had logged into all my accounts which had become dormant from that night of horror. slanting my face to the mirror, I saw how puffy my eyes were and my heart ached as soon I recalled the reasons behind those tears last night. I had gone through my gallery and watched mine, my dad's and mom's photos and it ached my soul to my core as I watched those two people as the realization that I'll never meet th
Chapter 79 ~Dom~I was standing at the terrace of my bedroom, just gazing out at the vast city as far and as wide as my eyes could view as I took in the serene air of the evening.as the cool breeze blew swiftly, the sound of my plain white short sleeve which was flapping as the breeze blew harshly past it, resonated loud in my ear as my plain black pants flapped against my legs from the impact of the breeze and my hair wasn't left out from the cool yet violent pace of the breeze as it disheveled my hair and blew it to the side harshly.twirling around, I strode towards my arms chair that settled just behind me and I made myself comfortable on it before Crossing my left leg on my right one.reaching for my wine, I took the empty glass as I took the bottle of wine and poured myself a satisfying quantity before placing back the bottle on the glass table in front of me with a small thud. I listened calmly to the sweet melody of the breeze as I took slow and small drags of my Cuban befor
Chapter 80~Alicia~The car screeched to a halt at the entrance of a huge mansion, one which looked so much like a castle. I could tell this since I had grown up in one. I tilted my head as I watched in awe. the name "TORETOS CASTLE" was slated in gold and placed at the top of the huge golden gate that welcomed us."Let me in, Alexa." I was about to whip my head at Nelly to check if she had mistook my name, Alicia, for Alexa when I heard the gate sliding Open and my eyes bulged in awe as the car proceeded to drive Even further into the large compound where so many other flashy cars where packed. I fought the urge to scream at the luxury I witnessed because this was far from what I had grown up with and known.we got down from the car and I towed behind her until we got to the entrance of the building, the entrance double door which was both wide and tall and the two doors parted way for us as soon as we got there as if they could recognize that it was Nelly.the maids and a middle age
Chapter 82 ~Alicia~ "it's going to be a long night, Alicia." Nelly uttered, expressionless, her words holding no warmth in them or was I hallucinating? must be it, but I couldn't help the uneasiness that I felt as my heart tightened, watching her retreating figure from there. what was that?Sitting there like a little kid who has been told to wait patiently for her mother, my eyes darted around the entire place as I resumed my admiration of the well decorated hall, the huge and luxurious mansion and the couples who were present there, my eyes fell on the stage and I saw the butler who had led us into the venue earlier, making his way up there."Good day Beautiful Ladies and gentlemen." The butler's voice resonated through the loud yet amplified speakers and everyone's head snapped towards him on the dazzling stage that reeked of royalty and luxury. "May I have your attention please?" the butler's thick voice resonated once again and this time, the whole arena fell silent and my gaz
Chapter 153~ALICIA~It was exactly 20 hours after Desmond made every threat and cooing in the world to diverge my mind and will from this day. À the day I had been waiting for. A day I had been looking forward to like no other, a day I was going to either take one more life to avenge my confiscated Freedom and the mysterious, gruesome death of my parents, or be killed and sent to meet them like a headless chicken in hell.It was exactly 5 P.M., dusk was already staking its claim, and I couldn't help the thrill that coursed through me, trying to gauge my heart out of its cage. Not in fear or apprehension, it was in sheer excitement like the Grim Reaper. I couldn't help the wide beam and adrenaline rush that woke me up this morning like a shadow, like a cloak, and like a second skin. It wasn't because I was so confident in winning and succeeding in my quest, no...It was because I felt a kind of boundless freedom like I had never felt before. A freedom that robbed me of the thoughts of
Chapter 152~ALICIA~"Fuck...So fucking tight...so fucking perfect...such a lewd, soaking wet cunt...urgh...what the fuck did I tell you about talking about your death, hmm?!" He groaned ferally as I felt the twitching of his cock and the warmth from his pants and I knew he'd cum too from the toughness of his pants and ragged breathing.His head lulled down and nuzzled into the nook of my neck as his twitching intensified and his growls and groans of pleasure died down, his hold loosening around my neck as he leaned up, released my leg that was hung on his arm, midair, his grope on my neck shifted to the back of my nape and he pulled my head backward, raising my chin and colliding his gray, softened orbs on my moistened green ones, his eyes searching mine for a tidbit before they strayed to my trembling, reddened lips."They're all swollen and red now, beautiful too." He mumbled hoarsely, his other thumb brushing soft strokes on my bottom lips. Eyes gleaming with the feral need to poun
Chapter 151~ALICIA~"Failed, again." Desmond's gruff voice rang behind me, before spinning around and swiftly heading over the barrier counter that separated us from the bullseye target in his shooting range where he was training me. Or preferably, where he had been training me for the past two weeks now.Two weeks, it's been two weeks since this training, and the fire of vengeance that bubbled through my veins hadn't waned the slightest bit. It's been two weeks and I hadn't managed, not even for once had I been able to get the plaguing thoughts, of what I had signed up for, the horrific, gruesome image that haunted my nights and dreams of the Man I murdered in that car the day I ran into this irrevocable alliance. Two whole painful, lonely, yearning, and torturous weeks of trying to get the voices, the face, and touches of Dominic off my head and skin, my core, even. Two weeks of prepping myself and getting ready to throw myself into the dark, scary, impending, and awaiting fangs of
Chapter 150~ALICIA~"A good thing you're not one naive little kitten. Then, I won't have to hold back or Beat around the bush in an attempt to not scare you?" He Uttered with a dark edge as he raised a toss at me who stared blankly back at him with a titter, while my heart accelerated at the sinister darkness that took over his gray orbs, turning them frosty and soulless as he steadied them on me, all playfulness dissipating off his features. The ominous venom, rapidly becoming too suffocating as the silence lingered on, so I parted my lips and broke the eerie silence."And...does those price also include..." I whooshed out a shaky breath out of my lungs and nose as I averted my gaze from his and buried it in the food in front of me."Are you...going to fuck me...too-" I muttered in a shaky voice that was barely above a whisper. The words leaving a bitter taste on my tongue and throat as they rolled out."Eventually." He butted in, halting my words. His rigid voice forbade any attempt
Chapter 149~ALICIA~The Large, tall, white paint house was nothing short of luxurious and elegant. Royalty too. The only thing that was missing was the cozy warmth, air, and closure of home, and that home was with Dominic. Shooing that thought to the darkest part of my head, a part where I didn't visit a lot, a part where I kept the things I wanted so much to forget, a part where I hoped and prayed would smolder and consume the face and memories of Dominic, I let my nostrils flare as the delicious aroma from the vast, copious, different cuisines in front of me on a long marble table, wafted through the walls of my nose. The pendant black and gold three-set chandelier that almost dropped from the ceiling to the floor above our heads cast a warm glow on the foods and wines on the table, but none of that was enough to ease the uneasiness and bitterness that I felt, the self-loathing that gnawed at my soul, the trembling of my limbs and fingers as they wrapped around a pair of golden cu
Chapter 148~ALICIA~The rampant pace of my heartbeat from the moment Dominic barged into my room and caught me red-handed still lingered, and it was climbing frightening heights that I never thought were reachable until now. It was running so painfully hard that I was surprised when I couldn't see it ripping through my ribcage to find its way outside.The more things like the fluke that deterred Dominic's attention from the phone on my hand when he came, lunging straight at me in those bone-chilling strides earlier in my room when I thought it was all over for me and I'd been caught, The more I started to believe that whatever deity that could hear and see me out there was definitely on my side, and the thought of it only gave me more frightening courage to dare more, reach beneath myself, rip through my softness, tenderness, and find the toughness of an elegant, strong, smart, elusive woman who was shackled at a dark distance, wailing, clawing, screaming and begging to be released. S
Chapter 147 ~ALICIA~Hauling her out of her bedroom, I took the elevator back down the first floor and took the secret route from the basement, with her hoisted up on my shoulder, my left hand snaked around her thighs as I made my way down the black, metal few staircases of the secret passageway that led to the underground garage. Closing the camouflaged white tiled door of the escape route, I jumped down the case and a startled yelp left her mouth as my shoulder bashed vigorously against her abdomen, forcing me to put her down but it was downright risky as it stood and so, I quickened my pace and strode towards one of my cars. Wrenching the automatic door with my face biometric opened, I shoved her inside and strapped her seatbelt tightly across her as her befuddled, puzzled gaze locked on mine."You...""Shhh. Stay right here, Alicia. I'm going back there to clear the entrance, I'll be back in a brief. And if it gets too rowdy, I'll send one of my guards; he'll give you his name-Bor
Chapter 146~DOMINIC~"It's all done, Boss." My consigliere announced raptly. His eyes beaming brightly with pride as a heavy, long breath of relief whooshed out of his nostrils. He was standing in dark gray sweatpants and a light black sleek turtleneck that mapped his hard, rippled features tightly across my desk with both his palms on my desk while his eyes gleamed with the bright reflection of the gray-colored PC in front of him."Mm. But cross-check your work severely to make sure there are no mistakes or holes that that fucker can get hold of, Chris. I don't want no more surprises, got it?" I let out assertively. My dark, unfazed eyes that were securely hidden behind my crystal clear gold-rimmed specks were glued on the tablet on my right hand as I rested my butt on my desk, calculative twirly the vodka that I occasionally took tidbit of sips from, dangling on my other hand with my back against the office and Chris, while the city lights that protruded from the vast city, reflecte
Chapter 145~ALICIA~A week.It's been over a week since the nerve-racking discovery in Dominic's room, and a week since I passed out on the verge of almost spilling and divulging Nelly's name due to the bargain, his heartbreaking story that had me bawling my eyes out as he's words practically threw me into a frenzy. Who was I to believe? It wasn't as if I could go wake my father's corpse from his grave to tell me his side of the story, no.And all the words that Dominic trusted me with or told me out of anger, I wouldn't say I managed to get under his skin, no, he merely tried to clear the air, and also, he didn't sugarcoat his words when he bluntly told me how much he'd dreaded my Father, which he had every reason to, and how much he wished he was the one who killed him, and I was sure it would've been more brutal.After brooding over his words and the whole overwhelming dark secrets he let me in on, I realized that, while those were secrets he had kept from the whole world for so l
