The Devil's Trap Chapter 116
I flinched at the ominous racket of glass shattering downstairs. All I wanted was to run far away. After a long wistful sigh, a wry smile formed on my lips. “Well, there’s no use of thinking like that. It’s absolutely impossible,” I grumbled aloud. Mother was still here and she needed me. Why she was still here with that bastard, I’ll never know. And, to be honest, I didn’t want to know. But, she needed me and I knew that I would never leave her. “Family” surrounded us like a bunch of ravenous wolves, waiting for her to die. Another loud bang echoed through the halls and shook the windows. Whatever he did, that son of a bitch better not hurt her. My mother had long told me to never go near my step father when he was in one of his moods. My eyes narrowed at my door. Clenching my fists, I started to shake with rage. It was all I could do to not bolt out of my room and run to my mother’s side. However, per her instructions, I just stood there and stared at the door with gritted tee

My stomach scrunched into a knot. All the limbs of my body weakened at the presence of that unknown man right behind me.Well, who wouldn't?It was late at night. I was on my bike all alone with an unknown man threatening me to take him away from here were all enough to give me a small attack. A fearful sigh passed through my lips and the lights turned back to green.Before I could utter my extreme reluctantance for having an unknown passer by on my bike, loud voices began to come from my back with emergency." Where did he go?"" Fucking hell!"" Did he record everything?"I heard the man behind me growling in frustration. Clenching his teeth together, he urged quite impatiently," Get away from here, NOW!! Or else we both will be grief trouble."My body took a numb pause before realization hit me hard. I was praying that he wasn't a criminal who just flew away after committing a third degree murder. It wasn't the best time to think about all this possiblities. I couldn't let the man

Then he smiled at me gloriously. I didn't know why the feeling of safety invaded into my soul. Honestly, I was way too sensitive with facing new people but he had an aura of security.A loud sound of people's clapping brought me back to my rational thoughts. Reality hit me hard and I remembered my reason of appearing here.Max might be awaiting for me out there!I stiffened a little, wanted to end the conversation between us as soon as possible. After taking a careful glance of entrance, I spoke with urgency," I gotta go, Mr. Stranger. It was nice meeting you."Breaking off my expectation, Daniel Rodriguez didn't seem like getting rid of me so fast. His instant voice brought me back in my spot," Are you going into this club? Honestly I wouldn't recommend this one because a lot of drunkards visit at this hour."Irritation was evident in my tone. I replied with an indecent shrug," Nothing happens to me here. My friend is inside and I am going to catch up with him."His voice rang aga

Instinctively, my muscles tightened as I heard the man grumble incoherently behind me. He was saying something about bad timing. I tightened my grip on the handle bars. I should just knock him off and run the light. In all reality, who wouldn’t? It was late at night and some crazy bastard jumped on the back of my bike. Not only did he almost give me a heart attack, but he practically begged me to give him a ride like he was facing a life or death situation. Maybe he was. I let out an exasperated breath. If Max found out about this, he would never let me come to one of his matches again! Well, at least not by myself. The light turned green. I lifted the visor on my helmet and started to turn to tell the guy to get the fuck off of my bike. But before I could do so, I heard three very loud and angry voices booming behind us.“Where the hell is he?”“Fuck! How is he that fast?”“Do you guys know if he recorded everything?”I groaned and shook my head. “Friends of yours?” I asked with all

Fucking Hot!My jaw dropped, eyes bulging out from its coats when my eyes focused on the man standing in the middle of the crowd. It was the same stranger, Daniel Rodriguez but also was looking nowhere close to him.Her upper body was bare, neatly shaved without a inch of flow. Taut and firm muscles which defined how nicely he had taken care of his body with those stressful exercises. A tattoo of body less was crafted through his left arm which was powerful and classy. Those oceanic eyes were dark, carrying a smugness that I didn't notice before.The crowd had already spent a moment of silence, appreciating his new, dignified muscles. His handsomeness and aura were beyond human beings. I wouldn't bother to admit that his appearance could be compared with those ancient Greek Gods.My mouth went trying and I had to swallow nervously. This time, I didn't quite understand why my nerves were nervous. Was it because Max was in the hands of rogues or Daniel was just too hot?Daniel faced the

Scared...or nervous?It was the first question that popped up in my mind when I arrived at my home sweet home. Well, it wasn't something that you are imagining__ a loving mother, a loving father, siblings blah blah blah. To clarify it more specifically, we were a perfect family to the outside world behind the walls. In the high society, my family was the perfect symbol of perfect heavenly match.Don't get me wrong! It wasn't because of me but my oscar award winning actor stepfather who convinced the world that he was the superdad and a doting husband for our family!My mother had to remarry again after the infamous Salvaysta Empire had lost their sole heir, she had to find someone to rely on. I was only 10 back then when my father died. Undoubtedly the responsibilities of empire were going to fall on me but I was too young. It was the only option left for her. Salvaysta had always been a glorious corporation in this town. In the past few years, it hasn't grown so much but the name was

" Your paintings have improved a lot,Eliana!", Professor Maxwell compliment, his eyes were on my paintings. My heart swirled in sweet feeling. It was good to hear compliments about something that you do for your passion." Thanks, Sir!", I mouthed, returning a big small politely. My dream of organizing an exhibition had finally come true. Although, my family had ability to fulfill my dreams long back, my mother never supported my painting career. She found them profitless,no future and whatsoever. I really worked hard to organize this exhibition on my own. Max was still missing in the party. I was left alone, greeting all the guests one after another. It was tiresome to remember everyone's face. Like Max said earlier, I had to make connections if I wanted to build my self-esteem career." Eliana!", a familiar voice caught my attention. I tilted my head back to see Max, coming with a banquet of my favorite flowers, white roses. I loved them like crazy ever since I was in highschool. Ma

The Neon’s Foods was the restaurant he chose? My eyes scanned the outside of the building for a few moments, and then I looked up to observe the green rooftop. It still was bursting with flowered trees. Subconsciously, my lips formed into a soft smile. President Gray passed me to go inside and I diverted my attention to his retreating back. I noticed that the owner of the restaurant had changed since I was last here. The middle aged man came out to meet us at the door and he gave a deep bow as we entered. The whole restaurant was empty and as we walked to our table I kept looking to see if there were any other costumers. “Doesn't anyone come here?” I asked with genuine curiosity.“Normally, this place is packed. But, I booked the entire restaurant for our lunch.” “Holy shit! So this is how the other half lives…” I murmured. Rolling my eyes, I sank down into my chair with a thud. President Gray frowned at my improper behavior. However, I was too mentally exhausted to give a flying

" Sister Janet! It's too late! Why don't you stay in our company's hotel?", Lily suggested, quickly catching up with her pace. Janet pondered for a while and found that it was better now. Now the clock had tickled to 11 P.M at night and there was no call from Victor, she assumed that he hadn't returned yet. Furthermore, she felt bored in the house all alone. Janet nodded with her in agreement and looked behind the tall building," You sound right! I will stay overnight here then. Call the manager to notify him once."Recently, SKYWINGS started earning well slowly. CEO Gary quickly bought this hotel nearby to expand the business. For the artists under SKYWINGS, they had a privilege in their sub branches such that she could stay in this hotel without any cost.After manager Aiden had confirmed that Janet could stay at the hotel, Lily left her at the entrance and drove back to her own house. From the hidden Maybach, Noah had his eyes fixed on the girl who was bidding farewell to her assi

Janet coughed vigorously before asking to double check. Her eyes were slightly widened in shock," Mmm! CEO Gary..are..are you sure that these rules are not for me?"Naturally, the company gives multiple clauses to artists to keep up with their perfect image. So, Janet was obviously doubtful even questioned about CEO Gary's authority in her heart. CEO Gary made a face like he wanted to smack this dumb woman's head. He put another cupcake into his mouth before telling," Do you think that I would come here personally to humiliate myself just to show you this?"Janet was speechless. Even Andrew who heard the pathetic terms came across to take a look at the papers. His eyes were big in disbelief as he slammed the papers down to blurt out loud," No way! Janet! He must be a fake CEO!"CEO Gary rolled his eyes and leant against the couch leisurely. His lips twitched in the mockery before asking Andrew back," Boy...you have never been in love right?"Andrew seemed dumbstruck by his questio

The engagement news was kept hidden. Since when CEO Fred heard it from Janet's mouth, he was baffled out before losing the ability to say anything. His marriage to the heir of Graham's family was fixed. That heir from the Graham family was a spoiled woman who could even beat men. Because of her share from the company's family, CEO Fred agreed to marry her. However, the girl had only one rule which was that he had to stay far away from women. If she finds anything again, she would come to break his leg personally.That mad woman..CEO Fred was internally freaking out but however, he couldn't even talk now or do anything. Janet was satisfied with the terrified expression on his face. She simply pulled her phone out and clicked a few pictures of CEO Fred who was laying half-conscious. Without hesitation, she sent it to his Fiancee. After all, the girl was innocent and she deserved to know the true face of this scum.After taking a few pictures from different angles, Janet saw that the pa

Janet took a deep breath to calm herself down. She rubbed her forehead aching and finally said in a serious voice," CEO.. Victor...You are too much really..I feel like you are seducing me to stay at your home. Please you are an honorable person. You deserve to act all high and proud. Why are you insisting on chasing me?"Victor let out a helpless sigh. He had nothing to respond actually. It was more like a first sight. The moment he saw her in the hospital, he wanted her as his own. So, he approached her slowly and cautiously. It felt as though he was attracted to her from the beginning. He ignored her question, said apologizing," I..I am sorry..I have gone overboard..I know that you don't like me..but I can't help.. really.."Janet didn't feel convinced with her words. She replied sternly, looking down at her feet," I guess, it's not convenient for me anymore to stay at your home. I stayed because of your health condition but now, I badly feel that I should leave, CEO Victor..We a

" What opinions?", Noah entered into the dining room, looking extremely tired. The new company was taking a lot of his strength to build up. When he appeared on the entrance, he barely heard about the elders, discussing about something regarding his opinion.Jonathan smiled big at his son, replied after patting the seat next to him," There, my son! We were talking about your marriage to Jessica."Noah froze in his track, looked blankly at the elders as if they were cracking jokes. However, Jessica was already blushing. She lowered her head down to hide her smile. Noah retorted sharply, turning grim in annoyance," What... what did you say? Getting married to Jessica? Since when did I agree?"The dinner table fell awkwardly silent. His response even shocked Jessica who looked up at him stupified. Jessica never expected that Noah was going to refuse to marry her even after finding the dark sides of Janet.Didn't he say that he hated Janet for abandoning her family for her dream?Mother

Kate was flabbergasted with an expression of being frozen over decades. She looked around uncertainly and indeed noticed that there was nothing special in the room. If it was a date, there should have been flowers, candles or anything fascinating. However, the room was looking nothing less than a haunted place.Kate suddenly had a very bad feeling. She looked up at the man who was smoking lazily. His legs were wobbly crossed, a kingly aura surrounded the air around him. A few buttons of his retro suit were frankly opened, highlighting the taut muscles underneath. She suddenly had a feeling of being trapped by a Mafia Boss.Kate cleared her throat, embarrassing," Then..why..did you call me CEO Victor?"She dared not to address him by his name so casually. Victor peeked his head outside through the layer of smoke. He pointed at the screen beside them and told casually," Miss Kate! I needed some confirmation from you. Do you know the woman in the footage? Take a look at it!"Kate subco

That area was hot and rocking, igniting fire with the gentlest touch in her hand. Never in her imagination, she thought that Victor would act so repulsive. Her blush became obvious and she retreated her hand hastily. Victor took a deep breath and appeared terribly on the surface. Janet mumbled, unsure about what to do," I...I am sorry..I didn't know.."Even she had no idea why she was saying sorry. But after she sounded guilty, Victor felt more wrong.Damn it! What was wrong with his body?He acted like a horny teenager who was excited to see his girlfriend's boobs for the first time. Without saying anything, he rushed into the shower and turned on the faucet to calm him down. On the bed, Janet was speechless.Please..was she really such dangerous thing that he was so easily aroused?Inside the bathroom, Victor regretted laying next to her, continuing taking showers until his body turned cold like ice. At the same time, a sports car had arrived in front of the city hospital. A man's

When Lily heard what the crazy audience was speaking about her, she was dumbstruck at her place. She didn't expect that people would notice from the car. Worst of all, some even began to take pictures of them, fighting together.Andrew cursed under his breath, yelled at the stupified woman who was looking blank, clueless," Get back! Get back into the car! Shit!"Lily was suddenly snapped back to reality, jumped back into the car and quickly pulled up the glasses. However, she was still scared a bit and spoke with a solemn expression," God! Did they really take pictures of us? Will we be on the headlines tomorrow?"She sounded resentful as if it was the worst thing that could happen to her. Andrew glared at the woman who treated him like a worthless paper. He even grounded his teeth so hard that it started aching. Other girls always had a dream to make headlines with him. Probably, she was the first person who didn't want any news with him. He was hopelessly frustrated with being neg
