Jane was sleeping soundly next to me. Her head was leaning on my shoulder and I just let her be. I should have raced the partition between us but I didn’t. Seeing how comfortable she was, made me feel at peace. Should I get used to this kind of intimacy between us? Ever since Carmine cheated on me, I forgot about all those warm feeling. All I could offer is sex and the best fuck she could ever have but these kind of gestures, they’re somehow giving me a kind of feeling I never thought would fit to my liking once again. I tilted my head to look at the side of her face. She looks like a cute kitten breathing peacefully against my shoulder. A few strands of her hair fell on her face and I had the urge to tuck them behind her ear.
Her eyes fluttered and I immediately withdrew my hands. I closed my eyes and pretended I was asleep. I held my breath since my pulses were racing and I was afraid she might see me panting.
Slowly, my eyes flutte

[JANE] It’s like everything was a dream. I’m back here in my office, together with the pile of documents on my desk that I needed to review and sign. Remind me again why I need to be a CEO? Oh, yes, because of my dad. My dream of being a professional photographer is now a pipe dream. How can I do that while I'm tied down here with all of my corporate duties and, of course, with Khali? I sighed as I stared down at the piece of document that I’ve been reviewing for almost an hour now; I couldn’t focus on my work; my head was full of thoughts of Khali. Something was bothering her on the day we arrived at the airport, and she refused to tell me about it. She won’t tell me about it even if I force her to. I wonder if it’s about me or us. “Fuck this,” this is pointless. I've got to get my thoughts straight. I wonder if Reese can go out with me today. I sighed again as I retrieved my phone and dialed my best friend's number. “Jane?” she imme

[KHALI]I felt like I was in the middle of the ocean, crying for help. Something pulled me under the water and when I looked up, I could see the fainted rays of the sun. It was cold, hopeless and helpless. I was being dragged down into the darkest part of the ocean. There’s no use of struggling, no one will come to save me. I closed my eyes and felt the calm beating of my heart. It’s slowly fading and I knew at that moment, I was ready to die. But a pair of feline eyes flashed in my mind. Her eyes spoke volumes as if she’s asking me to come back. She was crying and behind her, there’s that asshole Nicholas Terranova. I need to save her. I need to come back to her. I struggled to swim up in the water, I swam as hard as I could until the sunlight became clearer and clearer.I was gasping for air the moment I woke up. I coughed and coughed until I finally feel the air through my lungs. Shit! I felt a hand caressing my back and when

[KHALI] I woke up when I felt a pair of lips grazing down my jaw. I felt a weight on my chest and looked up to see a set of eyes staring back at me. Those weren't the eyes I expected to see first thing in the morning. Fuck. "Good morning, babe," she kissed me down my neck, to my jaw, and then up to my lips. I didn't feel anything but a heavy feeling inside my chest when her body pressed against mine. Disappointment and regret; I was disappointed in myself for allowing her to play me once more, and I regret giving in to her demands. I sighed deeply and attempted to stand up, pushing her body away from me. "Where are you going?” she whined and pouted, but I didn't answer and started to get dressed. She was still wrapped under the covers, and it would have been preferable if she stayed that way so I could easily leave, but she hopped from the bed and hugged me from behind, her arms around my waist. Not again. My jaw clenc

[JANE] The loud music inside the bar welcomed us as soon as we entered. Reese picked me up in my condo unit, and she’s been bugging me to tell her everything. “Hey! Don’t forget that you still owe me the details!” she made sure her voice was audible enough for me to hear. “Yeah, of course, I’ll tell you. Can we get a drink first?” I need some booze, so I can tell her everything. Just imagining that part where Nicholas almost took advantage of me is stressful enough for me. The DJ was now playing "Sick Boy by The Chainsmoker." The bartender glanced in my direction and flashed his perfectly white teeth. Reese sat on the stool next to mine, still looking in my direction, waiting for me to talk. “I’ll tell you about it, okay? Just one drink, please,” I know she’s already losing patience with the way she glared at me. The night was still young, and she needed to chill. “Fine. Scotch on the rocks, please,” she snapped her fi

[KHALI] "Hey, Khali! I didn't see you for days!” Wearing the usual cheerful smile on his face, Thomas greeted me as soon as I got out of my car. I shrugged and tossed my keys, which he instantly caught in the air. "Yeah I had to go to Thailand to attend to some important matters," I told him dryly. I wasn't in the mood these days; I was drained, annoyed by what had happened to me the day before; I just wanted to go back to how I used to be, but I couldn't stop myself from thinking and worrying. “Bad day?” Thomas asked though I sensed he was being cautious with his remarks. I just heaved a deep sigh before nodding at him. I shouldn’t vent out my anger to everyone. “Is Hannah there?” I asked him, changing the topic. Hannah is one of the people I entrust with our company's affairs. When I have to deal with important matters outside of the country, she takes over my task. She's reliable and trustworthy, but my faith in her didn't gr

[JANE] As my eyes slowly opened, the sunlight crept through the room's curtains, and I raised my hand to shield the light from striking my face. Who the hell kept windows open? But I don’t remember having curtains in my unit. I closed my eyes again and stayed there for a while until I felt a terrible pain that seemed to pierce through my skull. This is bad. Am I back to Day 1? Well, shit. When I opened my eyes again, I saw an unfamiliar ceiling, dark-colored curtains, and unfamiliar covers. I instantly looked on my side, and there’s no one there. I recalled going to the club with Reese, but I have no recollection of what happened after that, and she isn't here right now. What time is it? I sat up and immediately felt the chilly air inside the room. Hold the fuck up. My eyes widened as I realized I was completely naked behind the thick covers. Oh my god! My system was quickly startled awake, and panic began t

[JANE] "I wasn't pleased with what you did last night," she said, making me glance down. I closed my eyes and condemned myself silently. Honestly, I couldn't recall anything, and that even pissed me off. Why can’t I remember a thing? Seriously. “I- I don’t know. I’m sorry,” I was swallowing from time to time to calm the loud beating of my heart. It’s a mixture of fear, nervousness, and awe. She’s mad, but why do I like the sound of her voice? The way she scolded me in her deep voice, which sends thrills up my spine. Shit. I am insane for this. I silently gasped when I felt her fingers grazing on the side of my face up to my temple, then moving them to tuck a few strands of my hair behind my ear. Her fingers tingled the side of my cheek, causing chills to spread over my entire body. The constant tingling feeling between my thighs wasn’t helping me to calm at all. Jesus, she’s going to leave me breathless. "I knew you weren't sober when

[KHALI] Being mad is an understatement of what I feel right now. I was scared last night, afraid that she’s going to end the contract. I was in the Casino when she texted me that she wanted to end the contract. I inquired as to her whereabouts, but she did not respond. I tried calling her several times, but she never returned my calls. Luckily, I saw Reese’s post on her SNS; I’m not a stalker type, but I do keep track of all the people connected to Jane. I saw Reese posted a photo of herself and Jane in a club, and I know very well where that club is. So I left the Casino to Hannah and drove straight to that club owned by one of the Mob's members. Yes, N'drangheta owns that club as well. I almost broke the speed limit, but it didn't matter; I was there in less than 5 minutes. I didn't know where to look for her when I got inside; she could be on the dancefloor right now, or she could be at the bar ordering another round of drinks, or she may be in th

[JANE]A week passed after the incident happened. For me, the last two years have been a roller coaster journey. I never thought my life would change after I met Khali. My life had turned upside down, but I have never regretted it because I met the most amazing person in my life.I felt a pair of soft lips kissing my cheek as I opened my eyes. My favorite set of brown eyes was staring at me lovingly.“Good morning,” she whispered and gave me a peck on the lips this time. I found myself smiling unconsciously. I could get used to this, waking up with her by my side. This is the life I could always wish for, and now, I’m living with it.I wrapped my arms around her torso and leaned my head on her chest. I don’t want to get up yet. I just want us to stay like this for a little while. She kissed the top of my head and brushed my hair, making me feel sleepy once again, but before I could drift into sleep, she

[KHALI] As soon as we walked in, the suite seemed warm and inviting. I wasn't exhausted earlier, but the instant I saw our bed, it felt so tempting that I wanted to take a nap for a while. However, I can’t do that as I have to call my dad and inform him what had happened today. I need to know who the mysterious sniper was because I have a feeling that he’ll come after us. If the sniper knows where we are, hiding in this hotel won't help, and I still don't know his face. Jane was already settled on our bed, and it made me somehow feel at ease that she could finally rest. I'm well aware that I've put her in a difficult situation, and a part of me still feels responsible for risking her life. “You can take a rest. I'll just talk to dad,” I told Jane who just nodded in response. I smiled and kissed her on the forehead. As I headed back to the living room of the suite, so many things were running in my mind. I tri

[KHALI] A loud gunshot roared in the middle of our conversation. I was trying to calm Carmine down, who had a slew of bombs strapped to her body, ready to detonate at any moment. I couldn’t risk everyone’s safety in here. The gunshot, however, did not come from our side. I didn't give the order to kill Carmine. I was about to go near her when the sniper aimed near my foot. I couldn’t get the detonator from her. It seems like the sniper was preventing me to do so. Carmine was shot in the head. She collapsed like a log, and I couldn’t do anything at all. I looked around to see where the sniper was hiding. The bullet definitely came from behind from where Carmine was standing earlier. “Find the sniper!” I yelled. Carmine was already lying on the ground, lifeless. Another gunshot echoed in the field, and one of my subordinates was shot dead. Shit! I’m certain that the sniper wants us all dead. I ran inside the house to find Jane. We need to survi

[JANE]“You stay here. I’ll have to deal with her,” she told me before she pulled her gun and went out of the room. I was apprehensive about what was about to happen. It came as a shock to me to know that Carmine has a son, and Nicholas is probably the father. As much as I want her to pay for all the bad things she’d done, her child has nothing to do with it. The child shouldn’t suffer for what his mother did.I just stayed inside the room and waited for Khali to come back. I’ve been imagining things in my head that maybe Khali already killed Carmine, yet I haven’t heard any gunshots. I took my phone out to see if any of my friends texted or called me. I felt worried about Reese since she told me she was heading to Paris to see me, but I hadn't informed her I was already with Khali. What if Carmine’s underlings got her?I won’t be able to forgive myself if something happens to her. I sighed a

[KHALI]“She doesn’t want to negotiate,” Teddy said over the phone a few hours after I asked him to communicate with Carmine. I heaved a sigh and gulped. I have to try for one last time.“Direct me to her line; I’ll talk to her,” I told Teddy. This will be the last time I’ll negotiate with her. I’ve been planning this for a long time, and I thought of using this plan when there’s no other way to reach an agreement with her.“Alright, I’m dialing her number,” Teddy remarked. After a few moments of silence, I heard the other line ring. There’s a static noise in the background, and finally, she answered.“I said, I don’t want to negotiate. It’s either I die, or she dies!” I heard her voice at the end of the line. I scoffed and laughed cynically.“If you prolong this, you’ll lose everything. Are you that insane enough

[KHALI] I almost regret agreeing to punish her. I was worried she'd hate me again once she woke up. But then she's mumbling my name, saying "I love you" over and over. Hearing such words from her made my heart leap with delight. She meant it. She meant it when she said she loves me and accepts me wholeheartedly. After I untied her wrists and ankles, I went beside her and scooped her in my arms. I never knew cuddling with her could make me feel contented and happy. She's the only person whom I wanted to spend my life with, and at that moment, it's as if everything fast-forwards. I could see myself with her in the future. I'll support whatever she wants to do in life as long as she's here with me. There's just one person I need to get rid of before I can feel at ease. I need to find Carmine and kill her. As long as she's alive, I can't guarantee Jane's safety. I won't be able to forgive myself if something bad would happen to Jane.

[JANE] “I want you to tie me up and punish me,” I told her, and I pulled her close to capture her lips again. I wanted to show her that I love her and I accept her; that rather than changing for me, she can embrace her flaws, and I will gladly accept her wholeheartedly. I understand that she told me not to tolerate her darker side, but I can’t deny that I needed the dominant Khali in my life. I’ve learned to love her sadistic side. There must be something wrong with me, but I couldn’t care less. I love her so much. I could sense a loud thumping of pulses in my ear, and I’m not sure if it’s hers or mine. She gasped for air and pulled away. She was panting as she looked at me. Her eyes were dark in lust, and I could tell I finally pulled her out, the Khali I’ve always loved. She took my hand in hers as she slid off the bed, leaving me seated on the edge. “Hold out your hand,” she ordered. She was looking intently at me as she to

[KHALI] This time, our roles were reversed. I looked for Carmine for days, but she was nowhere to be found. My subordinates were unable to locate her, but I'm not going to give up looking for her, and if I do, she’ll be dead. There's no other way to put an end to this game of hide and seek. Jane stayed on the ranch with me. When she's with me, the days pass by, and there was never a dull moment. It felt like a dream come true for me, having her in my arms when I wake up in the morning. It seemed unthinkable just a year ago, but now, I’m living my life with her. I went to the stable early in the morning. Checking on my horses has become a habit of mine. I named my favorite horse ‘Santiago’. Among the other horses, he is the most well-behaved and powerful. I was patting his head and brushing his long silky hair when I felt a pair of arms wrapped around my waist. I looked back, and there she is, the love of my life. She kissed my nape an

[JANE] I had a nice dream, but it faded the moment I opened my eyes. I was sure I heard someone speak those words.Was it all just a dream? Or did it actually happen? The sunshine streaming in through the window lit up the room where I was resting. Perhaps it wasn't a dream after all. I'm lying in an unfamiliar bed, in an unfamiliar room. I stared too long at the wooden ceiling before I decided to get up and bring my feet to the cold wooden floor. The atmosphere wasn't eerie or spooky. Since meeting Khali, I've grown accustomed to waking up in a different bed, in a different place.Oh, Khali! Where is she? My eyes were all over the place, and my feet brought me out of the room. Her warm gaze greeted me as soon as I opened the door. She's standing there with a tray of food in her hand, which I assumed she had prepared for me.Thoughtful. It wasn’t a dream. Maybe it happened.
