Chapter 68~Alicia~"No! nooooo!! Dad, mom, don't leave me please no!! mom! wait for me!! don't.... don't hurt him!" I shrieked before springing up from the bed with a startled gasp as I recalled my dream. I panted hard as hot tears burnt the back of my eyes and they gushed out and trickled down my cheeks uncontrollably as I clutched my chest tightly, panting hard.it's been like this since the day I lost my Father and it seems there is no escaping it unless I slept beside that one person.tilting my head to the side, I gazed blankly out the window and I found that it was already morning and the tender rays of the morning sun was already peeking through the horizon. the chirping of the birds and the sight of the beautiful sky did a good job in helping those tears stop but didn't stop my nostalgia that suddenly started building up in my heart. clutching my chest even tighter as I took in sharp breaths to block all my negative senses, I felt something sharp grazing against my soft bosso
Chapter 69~Dom~"Urghh" I groaned raspily as I tried to unlatch my thick lashes which seemed to have grown heavier as I tried to detach my lids to wake up. I felt a harsh throbbing on my forehead as I got myself up on the bed. rubbing my palm on my forehead, I slowly unlatched my eyes only to be greeted with the mess I had created last night in anger and fury and a big scowl engulfed my face as I watched the broken pieces of bottles and my phone and the disheveled bed which I was laying on."fuck. argh.... fucking hangover." I groaned as I fisted my palms into tight balls before flinging the thick white blanket off my body in rage and Stormed into the bathroom.I strode straight towards my bathing tub and I filled it with warm water and bubbles before stepping into it and settling myself inside that warm water and I felt my tangled muscles relaxing as I threw my head and rested it on the head board of the tub. exhaling, I shut my eyes close as I reminisced on everything that happene
Chapter 70~Alicia~"OH my goodness! you look so damn gorgeous, Alicia." Nelly exclaimed. beaming in awe as soon as I walked out of the elevator and stepped into the living room where she had been waiting for me when I went up to get changed. I felt so many tingles in my tummy at the sound of her hearty praises and I couldn't help but beam back at her. my heart fluttered as I strode towards her in hurried steps, the sound of my pink stone-glittering high heels resonated loudly. I was cladded in a pink short sleeve silky top which I paired with a milk color tight skirt that settled just above my knees as my hair fell gracefully on my shoulders and bounced at my every step."thank you so much, Nelly. and you look even better." I exclaimed in awe as I watched her in her blue lady's suits. it was obvious that Nelly liked dressing like a stud but the reason was still unclear but I was going to ask her anyway. she grabbed my hand and stared admiringly at the bracelet on my wrist before retur
Chapter 71~Dom~"The boys sent a message, Boss." Chris uttered, halting me on my tracks. my fists clenched and my jaws tightened fiercely as my ears twitched impatiently to hear what the message was. "do I need to rip your jaws apart to get the fucking message from your mouth!?" I growled ferally at him and he flinched before snapping his eyes back at his phone and swallowing hard. "B-Boss, I think you should see it for yourself?" he uttered. as he extended the phone to me, his hands shivering as I sent him murderous glares. I batted my leashes and swallowed hard, all the while praying that my instincts were just a facade before snatching the phone from his hand viscously.averting my murderous blazing gaze from his face, I swallowed hard the lumps of fear that built up in my throat before gazing down at the phone and my eyes enlarged and bulged in shock at the image that welcomed me. a sadistic smirk ghosted my lips and faded almost immediately as though it never came. watching the
Chapter 72~Alicia~"OH! Alicia, why......don't you just wait in the car for me while i go pick our order?" Nelly blurted out halting us abruptly on our tracks causing me to almost bump my face on her back as she halted to an abrupt stop as I towed behind her but I was quick to maintain my balance and she spun around to meet my stunned gaze."Er....is there...." I tittered as I made to ask her why the abrupt change of mind but my words were halted when she beamed at me and placed her hand on my shoulder as soon as she understood my perplexity and curiosity."it's okay. I just remembered that I could go get them myself since I had already ordered them and don't worry, I got the absolute best and latest PC and phone so you don't have anything to worry about because everything is up to date so you should get back to the car and rest." she chimed with an obvious fake grin as she grabbed my shoulders and spun me instantly around and grabbed my wrist firmly and pulled me towards the car in
Chapter 73~Alicia~The car screeched to a halt at the front of the building which was obviously a cinema judging from the tremendous pool of people that cascaded the entire environment, some who were going in and some who were coming out. The environment was cool and spacious and I fought the urge to open my mouth in awe.I had always thought that my Dad was wealthy until I met Dominic. and Nelly was a good replica of her cousin. if my Dad was rich, then Dominic was wealthy. filthy wealthy. since I met Dominic and Nelly, they haven't failed to awestruck me with their dazzling wealth and classic living. not that we were poor but this was overwhelming.watching the huge mansion that greeted my eyes, i couldn't help the smile that plastered across my face as I took in the view from the window and I couldn't wait to get down and into this crowd of free people. more than the luxury, the freedom was more entertaining and enticing. I couldn't remember the last time I was able to step out of
Chapter 74~Alicia~"You both Look good together." the ticket-usher's voice resonated, halting us in track. I snapped my head at Nelly and I found her expression blank. she didn't look as perplex and petrified as I was. "is she..... referring to us....no! I mean, me?" I stuttered, stunned. although I had heard about Lesbianism before from my classmates but I had never been close to one so how.....come?"yeah, Alicia. she's talking about us, you and I" Nelly responded, chuckling. "what? No we're nothing like that ma'am, we're just..." I stuttered, explaining frantically to the usher who had her mouth opened agape, looking confused."don't worry Alicia. I got this." Nelly held my wrist from the air which I was waving in denial at the woman before dragging me back and closer to the usher, with a diabolic grin on her face."she's my Brother's......" she trailed off to glance at me as if to recall what exactly I was to her brother. well it was complicated and especially with the answer i
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 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
