Adam's POV

"Is that all?" I asked Lillian, gesturing at the stack of documents I had just signed through.  

"Yes that is all," She replied, and whipped out her tablet with fucking godspeed. "Next you have-"

"Cancel it," I said gruffly.  

When she glanced up to look at me, I was out of my seat, grabbing my suit jacket. 

"Well you certainly are in a haste to go," She grumbled. "What should I tell Field and Co? They have a meeting with you." 

"I pay you to help me come up with excuses Lillian, give them something." I replied, strutting out of the office.  

I had to see Eve.  

I hadn't seen her the day before due to work. Lillian had dumped a damned load of documents to go through and it was quite alarming just how much paperwork came with being a CEO. How I had so much sh

    Madeline's POV"Fold?" The croupier, a tall lanky man, dressed in a black crisp suit and had the worst french accent I had heard in my entire life said, peering down at me.I gave him the stink eye and reviewed the cards in my hands. Ah crap. My cards weren't looking too good. But if I quit the game now, I would lose my money. I had walked into this damned casino to double my money, not lose it all at a game of cards. .But hell, my cards weren't good at all. We had gone a total of four rounds and they were looking terrible. If I had counted properly, two spades and a couple of hearts wasn't going to do me much good. The grins on the other faces of my fellow gamblers told me that much."Fold," I told the croupier with a sigh and rose to my feet. I suppose I had no chance to win today. I would win some other time.Besides, when I married Adam, I would have

    Eve's POVI remained quiet all through the car ride back to the hotel, fixing my gaze on the setting sun outside the window. Adam's question rang through my head and honestly, I wasn't sure I had an answer.Would I go back to Tom?There were so many things to consider. One was, just for how long did Adam plan to help me? Perhaps he was asking the questions because he couldn't help me anymore. Perhaps he was fed up already. Or maybe he just didn't want to have anything to do with me anymore.He was Tom's Intended business partner afterall.I pressed my lips tight on contemplation, tired of the many thoughts that flitted through my head.I had nothing. No money to my name. No home and certainly not a job. I didn't go to college. Tom had forbidden me from doing so, which meant I had no degree to boast of. I couldn'

    Madeline's POV"Here are the peels of lime you requested ma'am," The bartender said, dropping a tray of lime peels on my table. "Though I am not quite certain what anyone would need the peels for."I gave him a smile and shoved a wad of cash in his hands. "That's for me to worry about and for you to get lost, hmm?"He tipped his head and walked away briskly. I picked a few peels and chuckled. It was time to pull on my acting face.I tapped on the message my stalker had sent me. He had sent a message following the picture and they include the address of an Hotel. Stone Hotel. Of course.He was housing the bitch in his hotel. I'll bet the rest of the money I had that he was probably fucking the brains out of her right now, the world shaking on its damned axis.Well all that was about to change. I forwarded the message t

    Adam's POV"Mother?!"My mother's eyes were fixed in a glare and with a slow hiss, she pushed past me into the room.What the hell was my mother doing here? How Had she known I was here?! And how did she know what room? Fuck, Eve! Eve was still in the bedroom. If she hadn't finished adjusting her dress then I was fucked.I rushed after my mother, standing before her, a frown on my face."What are you doing here, Mother?"One minute I had Eve in my hands, bare open and wet enough to send me to the highest heavens. I could still taste her on my tongue. I could still feel her soft plum breasts and that creamy skin against my lips.If my mother had been a tad too late, I'd probably have been balls deep inside her, twitching and spilling until I had her full and marked as mine.

    Eve's POV"Goodbye Eve,"My eyes remained tightly closed until I heard the sound of the door closing behind him.He was gone. His words replayed in my head and I willed my eyes to open.There was no Adam. There was no one. It was just me, the sound of my heart racing as if it ran a marathon and a loud pounding in my head.Tears burned the corner of my eyes, a lone tear rolled down my cheek, to the ground and as of unleashing a curse, others followed."He left," I choked out, feeling a certain kind of pain twist in my chest, making it rather hard to breathe. I knew Adam was gone for good, this time.I dropped to my knees, my mouth parting in a wide strangled sob as the tears fell unrestrained. I had never felt so humiliated in my entire life. I could still hear it, his mother's words. They rang in my head

    ADAM’S POVMy knuckles gripped the steering wheel tightly until they whitened from the pressure. I watched my mother’s car drive up ahead, gritting my teeth in anger.The scene at the hotel had replayed in my head a gazillion times. I could see it all again, all the anger written all over my mother’s face. I could see the pain in Eve’s eyes when she had slapped her. A growl slipped from my lips at the memory and I slammed my hand on the steering wheel in anger.I had just stood there and watched it happen! I should have done something. I should have foresaw that and protected Eve. Fuck! She had looked so abandoned, so deserted. I hated that. I wanted to be there for her. I wanted to be the one person she could rely on. I wanted to take care of her dammit!Turn around, my mind urged. Just fucking turn around and go back to her. She was probably still on the floor in the liv

I gripped the counter, hanging on, waiting, anticipating.Cold air whipped against my exposed skin as he yanked down the dress and tossed it aside. His breathing was ragged as he trailed kisses down my arched back, to my ass.He let out a hiss, smacking the cheeks, sending painful thrills up my spine and down to my pussy."Adam," I moaned, pushing against him. "Oh please, please."‘Ah fuck, I love it when you beg," he mumured huskily, giving me another smack. Heat pooled between my thighs and my juices spilled down my thighs. Another smack and soon he had me writhing and mewling begging him to give me what I wanted. What we both wanted."So fucking eage

I had to send the video of Tom molesting Eve to her and that seemed to change everything.That seemed to reveal the truth.They seemed fine now, happy.They had hugged and held each other for hours, weeping buckets while I stood there watching. It tore me to bits, seeing her cry. But she needed it. I knew that."You did good," Mother said, joining me on the balcony where I stood. "I'm sure you've made her very happy.""Thank you mother," I murmured while taking a sip from my brandy. "That was the goal.""Oh," my mother arched her brow in a manner that told me she had something else to say. "And the goal

I had spent the past few days in Adam's arms.But as much as I enjoyed his presence,I feared that it would all end. I tried to push away those thoughts, telling myself that I was just being paranoid.As I opened my eyes, I saw his face looming over me, a smile playing on his lips. It sent a shiver down my spine and a soft sigh slipped from my lips. Adam leaned in closer, his eyes darkening with desire. The air between us crackled with tension.“Hey,” I whispered.“He

With the way she had cried, you would think Adam was carting me off all the way to the moon. But I was sure she was only too happy for me.The drive was quiet. And yet it felt so... Peaceful. The days after the incident at the warehouse had felt like that. Slow and peaceful and it was good.In the meantime.His house... Scratch that, his mansion was huge!The gate creaked open as we approached, revealing a long driveway lined with blooming cherry blossom trees. The mansion loomed ahead, its grandeur taking my breath away. Adam guided the car to a stop in front of the massive oak doors, and I stepped out, feeling small against the backdrop of opulence.“I thought y

    Adam's POVFour days. They passed by in a blur. I couldn't remember much about what happened, but I could remember how I felt every single second.Afraid. Terrified. Devastated. Nothing had prepared me for what I had seen. Nothing had prepared me to lose Eve.When Tom had shot her, I was pretty sure I went mad. It had taken Micheal and the police to pry me off a bloodied Tom by the time I was done. The ambulance took its damned sweet time to arrive so while I called the pilot to the private jet, Micheal had checked her wound and helped do first aid. And I had held her in my arms on the flight home.Pale. She grew pale rapidly. Her pretty skin had lost its color until she looked so drained it terrified the shit out of me.I could feel the weight of her in my arms, her breath shallow and weak against my chest. Panic surged thr

    Author's POVWell duty called.Micheal Hamilton sped down the road that led outside New York city, a happy grin on his face. One would think he was on his way to attend a freaking birthday party with how excited he looked."Will you stop grinning like that?" Adam who sat in the passenger seat said with a concerned look. "It's fucking creepy man."Micheal chuckled and took a sharp turn at the same time, earning a glare from his best friend. It had been a while since they left Isabella Stone mansion and frankly he had expected Adam to rain down his questions.Instead, his best friend behaved as typical as anyone would expect Adam Stone to. He sat in the passenger seat quietly, occasionally glancing at him. If Micheal had to guess , he would say Adam was trying to connect the dots and figure out who or what he was exactly.

He had the damned cocky grin on his face as if something permanently amused him."Perhaps I do," I chuckled, slipping my hands in my pocket. "With that grin on your face, I'm not so sure I want you to meet her.""Oh please, I have to. I need to know the woman who makes you do the craziest of shit," Micheal crackled, walking ahead of me into my mother's house."Try not to say shit when you meet her,""Shit like what?" he asked innocently and I just knew he was going to try something crazy when he saw Eve.We stopped by Mom's study to say."Hello, boys," Mom greeted us with a warm smile.

"I'll signal the men."After a whole damned argument session with Barlow, he finally agreed to help. But what could possibly be much more valuable to Adam Stone? If we could get him to take back the charges and then say he had come up with the fake proof and lied that we were trafficking then everything would be solved.There was nothing the word of a billionaire could not accomplish.
