Evelyn's Pov.

As I opened the door to Adrian's office, watching as his gazed at the bustling view of the city, instead of seeing a mean and controlling man , I saw a weakness, one he hid perfectly away from everyone.

He stepped away from the view, moving towards his table before leaning on it, watching me with a look that reflected the acknowledgment shining through his dark eyes.

"I saw what you did back there", He said.

"As much as your actions are commendable, I need to know what Michael had to with it", He asked. His eyes burned with hatred at the mention of his brother's name.

I have come to notice the look of resentment that always fills his face whenever he talks about Michael and my father, and even me sometimes, almost as if he saw my father's reflection through my eyes.

"Why should that matter?", I asked covering the distance between us as I leaned into his table as well.

His gaze lingered on my face for a moment causing warmth to spread through me but I wasn't ready to fa

    Evelyn's Pov. "Alright then, Adrian. Go on with your plans to ruin me. Let's see how long evil can compete with good ", I delivered impenitently.He grinned with mockery in his eyes, " I have a feeling I would enjoy this"."What if I decide to divorce you?", I asked. I was desperate to break away from his toxicity."Not possible, have you forgotten you're father sold you off like an object to settle his debts. Debts I'm going to make sure ruins him until he becomes irrelevant ", He barked obviously put off my question."Of course you would, what else should I expect from a sadist like you", I said." I don't like your tone, Evelyn ", he huffed."You don't hear me complaining about yours ", I replied."You might think you would derive satisfaction from destroying me, but it would never erase the bitterness and emptiness inside you, this is not the right way to overcome grief", I continued hardening my voice.For a fraction of a second his steely expression faltered, but he masked it q

    Adrian's Pov.I can't explain how my anger quickly transformed into something indescribable, Evelyn looked ethereal and her cheeks reddened as she leveled her gaze at me. She was obviously seething but somehow it added a certain natural radiance to her, that made it almost too unbearable to gaze at her.Her eyes were lustrous and charged with desire. I took an indrawn breath taking in her luscious fruity perfume, her golden iris flashing like coins in sunlight.She was still wearing the outfit she wore to my office today, it's strange I never noticed how the bodice was so low cut until now. It revealed her twin globes with a softness that dazzled me.I reached out for her, but she snapped me out of my disillusioned thoughts as she moved away with a fast swerve, creating a reasonable distance between us.I watched her chest rise and fall as she trembled dropping her gaze from me."What am I doing?. What is wrong with me?", I thought taking a step back as well.Her unpinned hair hung d

    Evelyn's Pov.I spent the night in my room restless, fighting off the triggering pleasure Adrian had managed to rouse in me. I was unable to sleep, as I kept rolling from one side of the bed to the other.What is really wrong with this man and his contradicting actions, one minute it looked like he was consumed with anger and the next his dark eyes are suddenly clouded with enmeshed evocating emotions.Joe came by as soon as trickles of morning light filtered into my room."Mr Blackwood said you need to be at the office today", He rushed out. He didn't bother to wait for my response before hurrying away.I raised my brows confused by his actions but got prepared anyway.By the time I walked into Adrian's office, I took note of the way the air shifted. Any trace of palpable tension that hung between us yesterday had dissipated into something different, something suffocating.His fingers drummed absently against the polished wood of his table, he wasn't looking at me yet and I took my t

    Evelyn's Pov."A lot of people would want to meet and speak to you today, try to blend". Adrian's said gently. In the confines of his luxurious car, the air was heady.I nodded setting my face in a neutral line. The dress I was wearing itched uncomfortably and I focused on my phone, scrolling through feeds on Instagram. I felt behind, preoccupied with challenges beyond my capacity.If only Adrian gave me a benefit of doubt, a chance to prove myself.We were on our way to the charity event, he was calmer now, keeping to himself, and those were the first words he uttered since we left the house.I thought heavily about Victoria and what she said to me before the elevator doors closed. I marvelled at her guts, the audacity caused by Adrian's leniency. Michael had managed to dig out incriminating information about her before placing them in my hands. Now that I think about it, it was because he knew Adrian wouldn't take him serious, but of course Adrian distrusted me as well.I heard him

    Evelyn's Pov.I slept in Adrian's room after we got back from the charity event, he left immediately he changed out of his tuxedo, leaving me alone. But I tried not to be bothered about that, he was obviously building up a wall again. I would search for clues to enable me to grasp the real concept his the tragedy he faced in the past.Mrs Greene and Michael are the ones I know would have all the information I need. I couldn't stop myself from wanting to know more about Adrian.I opened the curtains, in the morning, watching his car zoomed off. I had the urge to search his room for anything that could be linked to his past. But I had an inkling Adrian's was too smart.When he asked me to move into his room, I'm sure he took preventive measures and probably have cameras installed in his room to monitor me. I shivered, walking away from the curtains.I picked something casual to wear, and jogged downstairs hoping to see Mrs Greene .I spotted her moving around the kitchen, focused on th

    Evelyn's Pov.There were warning alarms going off in my head, but I couldn't control the way my body responded to his kiss and how his hands flitted to my thighs squeezing gently.My lips parted letting out a guttural moan that seemed to make him groan deeply before deepening the kiss. I felt his hard member through his clothes pressing firmly in between my legs.I closed my eyes surrendering to the pleasures coursing through my veins. I have never felt like this before, never had a man touch me like this way, never felt my brain melting, and my thinking turning implicit. He broke the kiss, hovering over my neck, his hot breath sending shivers down my spine.Just as I curled my fingers into his hair to pull him closer again. I noticed the cold expression over shadowing his face. He pulled back and I dropped my hands in apprehension suddenly becoming wary. I blinked, my body ached for him but the look in his eyes spoke volumes about how far away he was from me right now.He stood up

    Evelyn's Pov." I need explanations, Michael", I told Michael. He winced dropping his phone." Hello to you too Evelyn", he remarked subtly ."I'm sorry. Good morning, Michael", I said.My fingers held the pictures in my bag tightly as I brought them out, I laid them down in front of him, I had picked them out of the album yesterday before returning it to Mrs Greene."Who gave you these pictures?", He asked tensing as he stared at the pictures."Mrs Greene", I answered."I need to know why my father is in these pictures with your family ", I said keeping my voice steady. I looked into his shocked eyes. He didn't respond immediately, in his eyes I could see the battle in his eyes, and his reluctance to speak as his gaze flickered to the pictures." Does Adrian know you're here?", He asked a small smile tugging at the corners of his lips. I looked around private floor of the restaurant Michael had reserved for us.A waiter came to drop a menu, a hint of recognition flashed flashed throu

    Adrian's Pov.I am derailing, going off course, losing track, fucking up plans that took me decades to devise all because Evelyn was becoming increasingly irresistible to me.I was at the office tracking Richard Carter's recent financial involvement. The amount he received and the ones he sent out. It was all mushy and incoherent, very fishy. I kept having this feeling that he planning big, something he had intended to use Evelyn for before but didn't work out, now he's trying it his own way, determined to cut through corners to get to me.Maybe even use anyone available around me against me. I should be focused on this but my treacherous mind kept derailing back to Evelyn.Her soft puckered deep pink lips, her alluring golden sinful eyes, the way body fit perfectly beneath me like a glue. Her full cushiony bosom, all I had to do was close my eyes and a vivid picture of her would comes to my mind.I looked at her empty desk, I missed her quiet presence here with me, how she innocent

    Evelyn's Pov.I layed my head on his chest trying to be lulled peacefully into the entrancing beating of his heart. The hum of conversations between Adrian and the driver grew softer and softer until it disappeared altogether. I felt like I was floating and then all of a sudden there was no feeling at all but the drifting over dark bottomless seas.--------Adrian's Pov.The air in my room was thick with tension as I watched Evelyn lying on the bed peacefully with our family doctor setting the necessary drips for rejuvenation and her quick recovery.She had lost all her strength, and I wanted to hear her voice, to look into her alluring eyes and shower her with all the praises I had in my head.She had somehow managed to save herself from those monstrous criminals even before I was able to get to her, her insurmountable bravery thrilled me.I don't know how she did it but it proved how different she was from every other woman I have encountered.She was an embodiment of the expressi

    Evelyn's Pov.I moved quietly in the darkness, dodging the rings of light that kept blinking beside the barbed fence as a guide.I heard a roar of laughter coming from inside the building and I trembled in fear of being caught, I cautioned myself, I had come this far to allow myself to be overcome by this measily fear.I made a quick dash towards the fence once the light momentarily stopped blinking, I held a loud yelp when I suddenly collided into a form I didn't notice before, almost falling to the ground.Adrian's strong hand caught me, pulling me up. I was instantly flooded with the feeling of relief as I held onto him with all my might.His shocked eyes runs over my form, before stopping to observe the bruises on my face." Evelyn, what did they do to you?", He asked burning with anger.I placed my fingers on his lips signalling towards the direction I came from." Not here, later we'll talk, let's just leave now", I whispered scanning our surroundings.He nodded, pain reflecting

    Evelyn's Pov." So?", Terry asked." Adrian's lack of trust in me is disheartening, he even has all my devices wiretapped", I answered."Then how did you know about my illegal dealings, Terry this bitch is lying ", Victoria bellowed."My father exposed you to Adrian so he would marry me, he wanted you out of the way", I lied smoothly."Richard Carter?. Don't be stupid. I could trust his scheming ass more than your sly utterances", She barked in disbelief.Terry waved his hands at her, silently asking her to be quiet as he ruminated on my words." Are you sure?", He asked looking deep into my steely eyes.I nodded, " He has been selling information about you to Adrian in exchange for financial assistance ", I told him. In my mind I patted my back, since he was eager to get information I'll ensure I fed him with enough to change his entire narrative." Terry, please don't tell me you believe this tramp, she's fooling you. Richard is on our side, remember", Victoria said convincingly."

    Adrian's Pov." It will be safe to park at a safe distance from that location in order to catch them unaware", I related as we moved to a glass shelf to put on protective vests." Of course. Plus, we need to divide ourselves into two separate teams, I'll stick to shooting and fending them off, while you should focus on rescuing her safely ", He stressed on the word 'safely' .And I knew he was just as worried as I was . I had lost my parents in the hands of those criminals, Evelyn would be an exception.I opened a briefcase and removed four silent pistol revolvers, passing two to Micheal I kept the rest for myself."Loaded", Micheal confirmed putting the ammunition in both his pockets." Take extra rounds. Incase of any emergency", I said.---------About half a mile away from the building, I sat in the driving seat of a Toyota Corolla, the least conspicuous vehicle we could arrange.Michael sat beside me, clearly surrounded by thoughts in the front passengers seat, drumming his finge

    Adrian's Pov." It's all surreal to me too, sir. This has never happened before. I intend to punish the entire team responsible for this irreconcilable neglect. But I also have a suggestion to make if you don't mind", Joe said.The lift pinged opening to reveal the full nest of workers and screens replaying recordings. Everyone stopped their work to acknowledge me but I was too taut to regard them.I felt livid that after several years building an indestructible wall around myself, my wife was taken under my nose without any suspicion." What's your suggestion?", I asked him. He waited for a second or two before getting the words out." Involve your brother Michael", He offered keeping a hint of hope in his eyes. " You know he's equally good at tracking anything or anyone matter how discreet or hidden it is ".I wanted to argue, to disagree, but a vivid image of Evelyn bursts into my mind, what was she going through at the moment, was she being tortured?.I was more than willing to th

    Evelyn's Pov.All of a sudden, Joe crept his fingers beneath his jaws pulling off the synthetic mask covering his face.My mouth parted in shock at this completely different person before me. My ears was filled with the jeering laughter of everyone including Terry's."Oh dear, did you think I could buy Joe's trust and alliance that easily. I have tried though, but that guy is quite untouchable", He said." And regarding how I was able to infiltrate your husband's tough security system without suspicion. There's always someone with a price". My ears ringed at the meaning of his words. Who then was responsible for allowing them to comfortably enter the premises to take me.I didn't know enough of Adrian's long chain of securities to be able to pinpoint the betrayer." What do you want?", I asked staring at the papers in his hands as I wondered what they contained." Nothing much. All I need is for you to promptly answer every question I ask, failure to adhere to this instruction will

    Evelyn's Pov.After what felt like hours I kept trying to keep my mind awake despite feeling urge to shut down completely.The vehicle halted all of a sudden and I was yanked out so fast that I kept losing my footings as I was forced to catch up with the person pulling me.The heavy stench of garbage and grease filled my nose with the urge to throw up. The man kept pushing me and I could hear several faint voice echoing around me, along with the swing of keys and whiffs of cigarette.The moment we stepped into a room, I knew instantly that I was in a much bigger problem than I ever imagined. I was pushed to the centre and I fell on my knees, I winced, moaning in pain as I scraped them on the rough surface of the floor. I suddenly felt surrounded, although no one was uttering a word, I could feel their presence around me. A sharp slap landed on my cheek, and sent me flying to the ground. I screamed scrambling to my knees as I held onto my cheek in pain." Just take a look at this p

    Evelyn's Pov.All the days that followed that mind blowing sex between Adrian and I felt like a blur of mounting tension, desire and utter confusion." It's a irony that you're the one ruining me", He had whispered into my ears as he thrust mercilessly into me.I tried to push aside the memory of our explosive intimacy, reminding myself that it was just another phase of my shambolic life.After releasing into the condom I didn't realize he was even wearing, a quick shadowy mask had clouded his face. He pulled away without glancing at me, ignoring me like he didn't just rip my insides apart with his huge cock.He had proved my fear and doubt right by remaining true to his elusive character, behaving like the moments we shared was just a figment of my imagination.Like it never even happened in the first place. And it stung deeper than I could ever imagine, it left me feeling like my heart had been ripped out of my chest, it left me silently choking on my tears as I struggled to allow m

    Evelyn's Pov." I might regret this later but I can't help it", He whispered huskily.I scrunched my brows in question before he suddenly closed his mouth on mine in an eternal flaming kiss, our bodies were so close, we seemed to dissolve into one other.The kiss lasted for a minute, before I broke apart from him, with our cheeks still touching, his heavy breath tickling my ears and I could tell that my cheeks were flushed in embarrassment.I moved away from him, holding his shoulders to steady myself as I stepped away from him. Looking at him I gulped before I met his sated eyes that plunged deep into my soul.What was he doing?. I don't want him awakening this inflaming desire only to leave me high an dry at the end of the day. But at the same time I needed to school myself to remain calm under the watchful eyes of his guests.And the way he was gazing at me, practically undressing me sent the wrong signal to my body. He groaned inwardly, before holding my hand and taking me away f
