Adam's POV

"Thank you for coming, have a safe trip home," 

"Thank you, Stone. I had a blast!" The last of the guests to remain, slipped into his car and drove off. I watched his car speed through a curve and he was out of sight.   

"Can we go now?" Anabelle groaned behind me. She stood in the parking lot with me, with my mother sitting on a chair an usher had gotten her, looking rather exhausted but smiling like she had won a lottery.  

I remembered her smile when she saw the party. The tears of joy on her face as I pulled the unexpected and a grin tugged at my lips.  

Was it worth it? Absolutely! Mother deserved all of that and more. I simply wished that I could do more. I wished that I could give her way more than that. 

I walked towards them, giving her a smile. "Are you okay, Mother?"

"Okay?" Sh

    Eve's POV"Eve, why the hell isn't my breakfast on the dining table?"Ah crap. My hands trembled as I flipped the eggs, wishing they would cook faster. Every part of me trembled. It was mostly annoying. I ought to be used to this by now. I should be used to him telling at the top of his lungs making ridiculous requests.It was just six thirty in the morning. Tom never got up this early and it made me wonder why.Did he have another child to traffic? Was he trying to get ready quickly so he could go sell someone else's child?! My fist tightened around the spatula as I struggled to fight the tears."Ma'am!" Nuren yelled, calling my attention. A choking smell filled the air and I scoffed."Of course it's burnt! I take my mind off it for a second and it suddenly gets burned!""Eve!"

    Eve's POVI flopped on the sofa tired as hell. I hadn't done much work that morning but the pain from moving around made it hard. Now that Tom was gone, I was simply grateful for a chance to lay on the sofa without getting yelled at.The sound of the vacuum could still be heard around the room. Nuren must be cleaning the guest rooms. She was quite the hard worker. I suppose that was also why Tom had hired her in the first place. The woman could work herself to death.Sometimes I wondered about her family. When did she get the chance to see them? I wasn't sure of the arrangement she had with Tom. Which was also pretty sad if you asked me. I was the mistress of the house and yet my maid knew more about me than I knew about her.I knew she had a family. Sometimes, very rarely however, she would mention a son or a daughter.Realizing I had sp

    Tom's POVThe day had started quite normally. I had a hearty breakfast. Eve could be useless in a million other ways but she could make a decent meal at least. The eggs were a little bit overcooked but edible I supposed.Before breakfast I had a major showdown in the bathroom wondering which side of my face had the best angles. I had seen the pictures the press had taken during the birthday party. And frankly, some of them were bastards. They had taken pictures of the side of my face that wasn't very flattering. What on earth? Weren't paps supposed to be skillful at this sort of thing?To top it all, they had taken a picture of Adam's mother yelling her head off at me. To my despair, that picture grew viral. What in the world? How was that picture remotely appealing? People just loved drama and did not care where it came from or what exactly happened.Not going to lie th

He screamed. "What are you doing here?!""I was just-" I wheezed, unable to continue. I couldn't speak with his hands clapped around my neck. I couldn't think of them choking me, restricting my air supply. I struggled, reached for his hands and tried to pry them off. "Can't... Breathe...""Can't breathe?! Bitch, by the time I am through with you, you'll very much prefer not to breathe."His threat sent my body into a frenzy. Oh no. I never should have come in here. What was I thinking about trying to play a hero? I was no hero. Hell I was in need of a hero myself.Tom would hurt me all over again and I had barely

It couldn't be him."Evie honey,"Only one person called me that. If this was a joke then it was a cruel one. A very cruel one. "Come ! You know your mother's going to come out soon and she'll whoop both our butts!"I opened my eyes then, blinking as a lone tear fell down my cheeks. My eyes caught sight of butterflies whizzing away from me."Leave the butterfly alone will ya?"I blinked realizing the butterfly wasn't whizzing away from me, I was running after it."I

    Tom's POVI walked into my study with a spring in my step. I had decided not to go to the office and work from home instead. Wanted to enjoy the new comfort my secure study brought. Getting the camera and the sensor was the best idea I'd had in a damned while. To think it was Eve all along. Well, it did please me to find out it was Eve. It meant I could have fun with her. And it had been very fun watching her crumple to the ground like a sack of heaped potatoes. That bitch was as spineless as hell. One hit and she would be all over the floor, screaming like a banshee. That was what she got when she decided to break my rules. The audacity. I had gone too soft on her, hadn't I? She would never have dreamed of this years ago. Eve worshiped my every step and followed my rules to the letter. Suddenly breaking them had to be motivated by something else. And what could that be? I racked my brain hard but arrived at nothing. The next time she messed with me, I'd do worse than dunki

    Adam's POVGolden.Eve's sultry eyes stared right back at me, warming me up, making me hard as rock. Her lips parted as those slim fingers reached up for me, wanting to hold me. She was sprawled all over the couch, dressed in that maddening dress from Maxwell's ball.Well technically, undressed. The dress was beneath her lovely breasts, pushing the beauties up for me to see. Teasing me and driving me mad. My mouth watered.She belongs to another. She isn't yours to take. My mind repeated like a mantra somewhere far away.A taste, I told myself. Just another taste. Just another taste and I would be fine."What do you think about the showroom, Mr Stone?"I blinked and the image of Eve sprawled over the couch disappeared. There was just a blue couch with frills at the edges.&n

    Tom's POV "Pick a place," What place? I bit my bottom lip unsure of what to say. This was business and frankly I was tired of meeting at restaurants. Besides if I ever summoned the courage to do what Barlow wanted, I needed it to be somewhere private. "How about your office?" I suggested and heard him grunt. "Sounds good. What time will you make it here?" I glanced up at the clock in my office and down at the numerous files on my desk. "Say in thirty minutes?" The rest of my work could wait until later. I needed to know what exactly was on Adam Stone's mind. It had been two days since Finn called and he had been on my mind over and over again. Well not him, his demands rather. Get Stone in on the business? There was no way he would consent to it. Bu

Nuren said stubbornly."Ignore her," I mumbled to him, running my hands over his skin.He hummed in response. "It's a fucking Saturday. We ought to be allowed to sleep in,""Not like

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

    Adam's POVI watched Eve walk side by side with her mother on the patio. It had taken a great deal of work and patience to convince her mother to come. 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

His very familiar touch."Mhmm," I purred, moaning softly as his hands stroked my arm."Are you up, my pet?"Oh I was . I was now. 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.

    Adam's POV"Your mother says, your little miss Eve is hanging around somewhere,"Those were the first words Micheal said when I met him at the gate. 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.

As if he had the right to.Now it all seemed to be clear. To be so fucking clear."Take her to the spot," Barlow ordered, jumping in right after me. "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.
