The Billionaire’s Pet 125
Aiden's POVI turned away from Lily, walking to the corner beside the window of Lily's living room. I dialed Joe's number, my heart racing with urgency. The events of the evening replayed in my mind like a nightmare. Two beeps told me that Joe had picked up the phone. "Hello, boss." He called."Joe, listen carefully," I began, my voice urgent. "There's been a shooting at Lily's house. Mitch is dead, but there's a sniper outside. Send backup immediately!""Okay, wh...what?" Joe stammered; he sounded as though he was half asleep. "What's going on?""Wake the fuck up!" I snapped. "Come to Lily's house with six men. There's a body to clean up!"Before Joe could respond, a piercing scream cut through the air, freezing me in place. I whipped around just in time to witness another gunshot and a spray of blood. Lily crumpled to the ground, her body convulsing in agony.Time seemed to slow as I watched in horror. Lily lay bleeding before me, her body splayed on the ground. The phone slipped f

Aiden's POVAs I held the bullet in my hand, fury ignited within me like a blazing inferno. This was Ricardo's doing, I knew it in my bones. He was the only one brave enough to try to harm Lily so openly; the only one who was the thorn in my flesh.I turned to face Mira and Lucas, and I saw the curiosity in their eyes. Mira's voice cut through the tense silence, her concern evident. "What did the doctor say?" she asked.Without a word, I lifted the bullet, its engraved surface gleaming ominously in the dim light of the hospital. Their eyes widened in shock as they took in the sinister detail. "That bullet..." I began, my voice heavy. "It bears Lily's name. Ricardo's twisted way of sending a message. He wanted to kill her?""Why would he do that?" Lucas asked. "From what I know, he wanted her for himself.""I don't need to know why he wanted to kill her." I declared. "Because today, I will put an end to Ricardo's reign of terror. Once and for all.""You're not....going to Ricardo alon

EPILOGUEAiden's POVSeveral months later found me rushing down a corridor of Doctor Turner's hospital, my heart in my throat. Behind me, I could hear Lucas' hurried footsteps as well.We met Mira halfway down the corridor, and I stopped panting. "Where is she?" I asked. "Tell me!""I....she is....in the labor room right now!" Mira stammered. "Doctor Turner has assured us that she will be fine—""I don't bloody care!" I roared. "Take me to my wife now!"Mira nodded vigorously, then began to race down the corridor, Lucas and I closely behind her. She stopped before a door, from which I could hear labored wails and the soothing murmurs of the doctors.Without waiting, I pushed open the door and walked right in to see Lily on a bed with her knees up in the air. Her dress had been raised all the way up to her chest, and I could see about half a dozen doctors and nurses gather around her.Doctor Turner turned to me, and his eyes widened. "Mr Blackwood! What are you doing here?""What....wh

Lily's POV "Two margaritas and a sex on the beach please," The blonde lady looking out of her wits requested as she continued to talk to her partner. I rolled my eyes and forced a smile on my face as I turned to mix their drinks. This was definitely not a new thing on the job. I am used to it. But at least, she said please. Grabbing the tequila and triple sec from the freezer behind me, I tried hard not to sigh out loud in frustration. I should be the one ordering drinks, I should be out there, with my friends on a day like this but no! I'm stuck here, attending to a drunk lady who looks like she just had a quickie in the back of her car. Holding back a sigh again, I squeezed out the lime with the perfect measurement and proceeded to make the drink. I love my job honestly but I really hate the fact that I have to be here, today of all days but then again, I have no say. I need this job, I need the money for my brother’s hospital bills. They have piled up en

Lily’s POVI am angry, I am tired, I am a lot of other things, but being broke tops them all. And that's why I am doing this now and sitting in front of my computer. I only need one fifty thousand dollars for now, I can keep working for my college funds. I just need to pass through this phase of my life successfully. Then I can fulfill my own dreams... Thinking back at what the nurse said at the hospital and seeing my brother lying down there when something can be done to keep him safe before we find a donor, just shows me how much I want him to finally have peace, I know I have to do this. I know I have to stop being a chicken and sign up for the online auction. I am aware I don't even need to do anything if I don't want to. No one is forcing me, this is not a physical auction like the ones I have heard. Everything happens online, and if I don't like what I see I can just back out. I'm losing my mind. That's the only thought that sears through my brain as I sit on my couch, st

Lily’s POV “I have to tell you, sweety, Your brother has been moved two roles up, and he is now number twentieth on the list, it won't be long now. You have tried so much” The nurse said to me as I began to settle down in the hospital. She and the other nurses have been more than kind to me and my brother. With no families and no money, I feel they have been fair to us despite their code of conduct. The news makes me happy, really happy that soon it would be his turn to get a donor. A good news, something to hope for. And before then I would have prepared the money needed. “We will wake him up from unconsciousness now, I'm sure he has been hoping to wish a happy birthday. I totally forgot about my birthday yesterday. It didn't end well but it does not matter, next year is another time to celebrate. “Thank you,” I muttered to her and she was gone. “Hey darling,” I said as he popped his eyes open weakly, Lucas is my only family and I love him to death, which makes his pai

Aiden’s POV I always get what I want. Every time, In business. In life. Always. I get what I want because I have always taken, My entire life, that’s exactly what I’ve done. Take. Take. And Take. And it’s worked graciously. I’m the CEO of Blackwood Hotels and Resorts, and I have done well to spread everything across the world. I have more money than a man could dream of but the best thing of all, I always have a pussy to tap on. If I want to get laid, all I have to do is give a little attention to the hottest woman in the room, and within ten minutes, she is on my dick, riding as if her whole fucking life depended on it. But then, I get tired of them all, they tend to get tiring only after a few meetings, and none has stayed with me past a few weeks. So now I seek just one-night stands, but it's only different because I see them beforehand and decide to fuck them. And that's exactly what I am doing on the fucking website. I was losing my patience when I saw her reques

LILY’s POVI will be meeting my mystery man in less than ten hours, too small to plan anything but enough time to change my mind, why then am I not doing just that? I looked at my phone again for the address he sent to me. I am supposed to get shaped up in the spa just for him. I wonder if he convinces every woman he fucks to jump through this many hoops? I wonder if he pays sessions for all the girls he fucks, or just a few. At least that information is not strange to me, whoever I am going to meet is meant to make me the beautiful version of me. “Hey,” A hand touched my shoulder.“What?” I jumped up, “I have been calling your name, Lily. Since you didn’t answer, I let myself in” “Oh I’m sorry, there are a lot of things on my mind” “I know, but your brother is going to be alright” She put her arms around me and enveloped me into a warm hug. “I know. He has to be. Not when I am doing this” She looked at me then, maybe finally understanding what might be going on. “You did?” He

Lily's POVLucas nodded in agreement with my words. "You're all the family I need, Lily."A warmth spread through me, filling me with a sense of belonging and reassurance. He was all the family I needed too, especially in moments like these, when it seemed as though we were moving from problem to even bigger problem.With a wide smile, I stretched out my arms and pulled Lucas into a tight hug. At that moment, as we stood together in the dimly lit room, I felt a sense of peace settling on me like never before. Despite the scary things that had just happened, I felt calm and happy.But just as I began to relax into the embrace, the sound of banging on the door shattered the silence. My heart raced with fear as I ducked down, instinctively seeking cover from the unknown threat on the other side."Hey! Open the door!"Relief flooded through me when I heard Mira's familiar voice calling out from behind the door. With a shaky breath, I rose to my feet as Aiden crossed the room to open the d

Lily's POVAiden's eyes widened in shock, and for a moment, he seemed unable to speak. Then, a wide smile spread across his face, and he stepped forward, his arms outstretched as if to embrace me. "Lily, that's... that's incredible!" he exclaimed, his voice filled with joy and disbelief.I couldn't help but feel a surge of warmth at the sight of his genuine happiness. But beneath it all, a gnawing sense of uncertainty stayed inside me. "I... I know," I stammered, my voice barely above a whisper. "But Aiden, I don't know if I can do this. Not now, not in this... this situation. With Ricardo, and all. If he knows about this, he will—"Aiden's smile faltered, and he reached out to gently take my hands in his. "Lily, I understand that this isn't ideal," he said softly, his voice tinged with concern. "But we'll figure it out together. We'll make it work, I promise. To hell with Ricardo!"Tears welled up in my eyes as I looked into his earnest gaze. "I want to believe you, Aiden," I whispe

Lily's POVThe rest of my day—and week—seemed to go by in a blur. I couldn't recollect the meals I had or the conversations I endured. All I could think of was this baby. My baby.Before slipping into bed on the very last night, I closed the bedroom shades against the New York moon. In the day, I hated the sunshine because It reminded me too much of Aiden and the time we'd spent in Pennsylvania, but this moonlight was almost as bad. It was so cold. And felt so strange. As odd and unfamiliar as this house, these people living with me and my own skin.Finally, I rolled onto my side and rubbed my stomach. When I found that I was pregnant, I had tried and failed to find some outward sign of my condition. But in only the past few days, I had detected a slight rounding of my belly. This child was growing.This child. My baby. A stranger, like its father had grown to be. How I yearned to know how this child had been conceived. Was it when Aiden and I had survived the battle with Ricardo? Wa

Lily's POVIt was exactly two weeks after I met with Ricardo, when I woke up one morning feeling unusually bloated and disoriented. Later I would remember that day and think about how suspicious it had been, how I should have known something was terribly wrong.My head throbbed with a dull ache, and a wave of nausea washed over me as I struggled to sit up in bed. The room spun around me, and I clutched my stomach, willing the queasiness to pass.Just then, a gentle knock echoed through the room, and I mustered the energy to call out. "Come in!""Good morning!" Mira chirped. She stepped in with her characteristic cheerful smile, carrying in her arms a tray of breakfast.She closed the door with her foot. "I noticed that you slept in today, so I decided to wake you up with your favorite.""Thank you, babe," I murmured. My voice sounded as though a whole pond of frogs had decided to nest in my throat.Mira's smile faltered as she observed my lack of energy."Lily, you don't look so good,

Ricardo's POVI placed the telephone on the polished wooden table, its weight settling with a resounding thud. Sliding into the leather-upholstered chair, I reached for the crystal decanter, pouring a generous measure of brandy into a crystal glass. The amber liquid swirled, casting an enticing glow in the low-lit room.With a flick of my wrist, I lifted the glass to my lips, savoring the rich, smoky aroma before taking a sip. The fiery warmth spread through my chest, momentarily killing the cold reality of my surroundings.I turned in my chair, and my gaze fell upon the lifeless form of Liam sprawled across the floor, spread-eagled and looking stupid. He was stupid. He had always been. I couldn't forget the first day he strutted in here, acting as though he owned the place. I didn't do well with men who thought they were better than they really were.I despised men who talked too much and pretended to have a confidence that they didn't truly possess. Liam had been a loose end, a nu

Ricardo's POV"Boss! Good afternoon!"Liam strolled into my office, a sly grin playing on his lips. I couldn't shake the feeling that his visit was laced with ulterior motives. I leaned back on my chair, watching the man as he strode over to me. Everything about him simply set me on edge. His curly, blond head of hair, baby blue eyes, and dimpled smile made him look like some innocent kid, but I could see through that facade.I knew exactly what he was. A con. I'd known from the first time my men had led him into my office, some three or four days ago.However, I pushed my angry thoughts aside and plastered a smile on my face. I extended my hand for a handshake, a customary greeting. "Good morning, Mr. Liam." I greeted.Liam ignored my outstretched hand as though it was the nearby file cabinet. I watched with mounting annoyance as he breezed past it as if my office were his domain. He slumped into one of the chairs in front of me with a great groan of satisfaction."I cannot say th
