The Ceo's Addiction 66
Narrator's pov"How dare you show your face here? Leave." Aiden roared with gritted teeth. He scorned the few words hanging in his mouth. How dare Dylan show his face in his house? After all, he has done. "Get out!." He spat, contemptibly glaring at Dylan. "Why can't I?. Not only did you not fight back, but you also had the nerve to call Interpol on me. Are you weak, or you're acting up because of her?" Dylan asked mockingly. His voice held amusement, and he was glad he was taunting him at the same time. "I won't stoop to your level, Dylan. I have principles." He said, then Dylan broke out a laugh, clutching his stomach as his laugh filled the sitting room. This was the least he expected from Aiden. Principles!. "You're not a person of principles, Aiden. You're claiming what you are not, listen, "Dylan started, moving towards him, he stopped and looked at him, eyeballs to eyeballs, with a smirk over his face. "You've killed more than I did. Even when I left, I heard you killed yo

Aiden had spared time to cook for such a long time, it was after Dylan left and Noelle walked out, he went into the kitchen to cook a nice meal. In his mind, he said "I was never afraid of anything.

Kat's povI had my phone in my lap as I thought of what to say to Noelle when I call her, but my mind was blank. Jordan sat across me, looking at me all that time. Usually, I do not think she would be considerate enough to sit across from me on the bed, then listen to how I feel not speaking to my best friend. "Hey," She shouts, making my heart flip. I looked startled at first, then glared at her for giving me a heart attack. "What are you doing? Why don't you dial her number?." I shook my head negatively, she sighed loudly and snatched my phone from me. My eyes grew wide, "What are you doing?. Give it back! " I stretched my hand to her. She smirked and pressed the call button. I tried grabbing her, and she ran off the bed, raising her eyebrows at me. The phone stopped ringing, and she tossed the phone over to me. I hesitantly placed it on my right ear. "Oh my God!. Kat, where have you been? Where the hell are you? I've been worried sick, I don't sleep anymore, I was so fucking wo

February 14, 2016Night of Valentine's Day. Capitol Hill Lake View Cemetery~What now, a song by Rihanna played in the background.In front of me were two baskets, one of which contained wine, a pack of chocolate my mom loved when she was alive, her white scarf she'd always tie to church, and my dad's favorite polo. On the other hand was a bunch of flowers, then beside me was my suitcase. I stood with the locket they got me on my birthday. I was putting on black jeans and a black hoodie, with black canvas. When I turned to leave, my eyes saw Aiden beside his car. I had told him I would be coming straight to the cemetery, and he promised to meet me. As I carried my luggage and walked towards him, I stopped in front of him. He hugged me immediately and kissed me on my lips. "I'm happy to see you back, Kathleen. You do not know how happy I am." He soothes me, cupping my cheeks. "Do not worry, baby. I'm back now, and I won't leave you again." I told him. He did not know how much I mis

Kat's povI slowly opened my eyes. I squinted when I noticed the sudden brightness inside the room. I blinked, blinked once more, and blinked one last time. When my eyes got used to the brightness, I suddenly noticed I was inside a room- a vacant room. Inside the room was a bed, a table beside it, I was sitting on a chair, well tied up is the most appropriate word. Yes, I was tied up on a chair, both of my hands were behind the chair, and were tied with a rope. My feet were stuck like glue on the legs of the chair. My heart accelerated when I remembered those moments before I fainted. Dylan told me some strange things.Dylan pointed a gun at my head. Dylan shoots Aiden in his legs.And Helena works for Dylan. My eyes widened when I recalled Aiden's blood gushing out from his legs. Oh my god! He can't be hurt, no...My eyes searched for a window inside the room, but there was none. I knew my chances of being heard were slim, yet I tried my luck, "Help!. Somebody help me!. Hey, who'

Helena laid on the bed, while the doctor stood beside her, and Dylan by the other side. She could hear the voice of the doctor and Dylan in her sleep, but didn't want to open her eyes. At one time, Dylan's voice became so loud that she had to open her eyes, and they stopped talking. The doctor was a woman in her mid-thirties, who was bundled up into the van by Dylan's men. Her face was covered until they arrived at the building, Fear gripped Helena, seeing the doctor's sad face. Something must have happened to her baby, that was the only thought that ran through her mind."You're a strong woman," The doctor started but was rudely interrupted by Dylan, "Is the child dead?." Helena's lips parted, it broke her into pieces that the father of her child wanted his child dead and slowly wiped her tears off. He couldn't wait to hear the good news. "The baby is dead." And that was the shock she felt. The child is dead, her child was dead. She stared in disbelief at the doctor and slowly to

Dylan puffed out smoke from his nostrils as he sat in his bedroom. He was holding a glass of wine in the other hand. He sipped his wine and dropped the glass on top of the table, he picked up his phone and dialed Harley's number. "Hey, who's this?." Harley's voice rang from the other end. "Is this how to talk to your big brother, Harley?" He asked. There was a pause, "Dylan…" She called, in a more serious tone. "What do you want?. If you know what is good for you, let Kathleen go. What has the poor girl done to you?" Dylan feigned a yawn and rolled his eyes. "Just breathe, Hay. I want you to answer a question," A silence occurred between them."What do you want to ask me?" Dylan hesitated. He didn't know what to believe anymore. He was confused. "What happened between you and Natalie?" He threw out the question. There was a pause, Natalie was a bitch. She always hated Natalie, and never liked her. After all she did to her? After... Her cheeks burned, and hot tears streamed dow

"Eat up."I looked up, and there was Dylan, smirking wickedly at me. He was holding out a tray of food-my lunch. He placed it down on the small bunk-like bed and walked behind me. Slowly, he started to untie the rope behind the chair. When he was done, I messaged my restrained wrist while glaring at Dylan. "What? What's the glare for?." He asked innocently, as if he hadn't kidnapped me, as if he didn't slap me, as if he was innocent and everything was okay in this world. "I hate you." I spat. "I know," he sang as I sat on top of the bed. I breathed out and started eating. "I'm going to let you go tonight." He said, I looked up at him. "And on one condition." He paused. "That Aiden surrendered himself to the police." I turned back to my meal. "Do you know what I'm afraid of?" He continued. That caught my attention as I looked up at him, "I didn't know you had fears after the way you act?." I mumbled and turned back to my meal. He chuckled, "Everyone has fears, Aiden has fears,

"Helena?." Kat called."Kathleen," Helena called back."Wow. You two know each other, but I thought you lost your memory forever," Clara said and earned a glare from Kat and Helena."You. How dare you?.

She snatched the binocular away and rushed outside.She viewed from the front porch.She didn't know this person.Who's this person?.She squinted her eyes and took a look again.That face?.What?.…...End of recapKathleen stood at the middle of the field, looking towards the direction of Clara in which she had taken in. She breathed out, watching her come closer. She'd thought that Clara was one tough girl who fought a million times after seeing lots of huge fighting men beside her, but she thought wrong, Clara was an opposite.A girl who had a silk skin, beautiful eyes and innocent looks. She'd imagined if she at all had left a prison. Clara was beautiful and classic and…"Wow..you look different." Clara cut off her thoughts with a strong voice.Okay, Kathleen underestimated her looks. She's really rude.Kathleen didn't wanna go round the bush but said in a very straight tone."Where's my daughter?."Clara smirked."Ooh. You've got some balls now. I didn't expect to see you.""You

He wanted everything to end, it was like everything was not gonna ever end in his family. His family was never gonna be together and his enemies made sure of that."You don't have to apologize.."
