Terrence woke up with a throbbing headache. It's almost like his skull is getting split in half. He tried to move his hand so he could hold the back of my head, but he felt some resistance. He slowly opened his eyes and was greeted with a pitch-black environment.
He tried moving my arms and legs again. He’s definitely tied up. He could hear the sound of chains and feel the cold metal against his wrists and ankles. He also noticed that he was naked. The cold wind blowing out somewhere is seeping through his bare skin. It's as if he’s inside a gigantic freezer.
He tried to recall the things that happened before he lost consciousness.
The party,
The penthouse,
The pole,
The wine,
The woman.
His eyes widened when he remembered everything. He became too lax about the situation. He hopes that his team will be able to track his location on time using the chip he had installed inside his body. A doctor told him that you could actually install a chip safely inside a human body for tracking and security purposes. He had it implanted on his left arm. The wound is covered with a scorpion tattoo to conceal it.
"That bitch!" he roared, realizing what was happening now. His voice echoed through the entire room.
"Let me out of here!" he firmly commanded.
One by one, the lights opened and flooded the entire room. He was blinded temporarily by it. He turned my head sideways and squinted his eyes a bit, trying to avoid the light from hurting them when he heard a click-clacking noise coming from someone wearing high heels going in his direction.
When his eyes finally adjusted, he saw her wearing a black full bodysuit and black knee-high boots and an entire army wearing all black, surrounded by what looked like a big warehouse.
She smiled wickedly at him as he looked at him from head to toe. She walked towards him and started running her long fingers over his chest. His rod automatically reacted to her touch. Despite being in this horrible situation, his thirst for lust and flesh still remains.
"Oh. You're such a lewd person, Terrence. I just touched you and your..."
Delicious man meat! " She finished her sentence as she yanked his manhood hard. He yelled in pain and moaned in pleasure at the same time as she moved her hand up and down, stimulating it. It’s like being a star in a real porn movie about bondage. It would’ve been a very exciting experience if he were not being held hostage now.
"S-stop. You w-will not get away with this! " He tried to stop her from touching him inappropriately in front of many guards by wiggling his body. She’s humiliating him purposely in front of them. They were all shouting and mocking him.
Terrence looked at her with great disgust. "What do you want?! Do you need money? Do you want properties?! A business?! Tell me. " Those are the only reasons he can think of at the moment.
'I need to get out of here as soon as possible!' he thought to himself.
"How did you get into the bar?" Terrence curiously asked.
The woman laughed menacingly before responding. "Well, let’s say I have my ways, pretty boy," she said while running her fingers over his face.
"Bitch!" he howled.
She forcefully grabbed his chin with what he just called her. Her sharp fake nails burrowed into his skin, causing it to bleed. "Look at me carefully! Aren’t you reminded of someone? " The look in her eyes seemed like a sharp knife piercing his soul.
"I don’t understand what you’re saying," he denied. She let go of his chin and turned her back. "Let’s see about that. Boys, bring her in! "She commanded and snapped her fingers. Two guards opened the large door and a woman in a wheelchair entered, accompanied by other guards.
A wave of memories came back. She’s one of the women he's slept with before. She’s the fifty-first woman. Because of his eidetic memory, he remembered exactly what happened that day down to the small details.
After the session, she was crying in front of him.
"Terrence, why can't we be together?" She was weeping uncontrollably while clinging to his legs.
"I think the contract already explains everything. It was just three hours of fun, you're just a three-hour woman, nothing else." he explained.
Even after he explained everything to her, she clenched her grip on his thigh even tighter.
"No! Be mine, Terrence! "she exclaimed.
He got irritated and grabbed her arm and threw her across the room.
"Get out or die," he said in his most intimidating voice.
He thought she’d never return after scaring her, but she kept appearing in front of him until one day she stopped.
The flashback is over...
"Did this face jog your memory somehow, Mister Terrence Vaughn, The Asshole Evans?" "Oh," she said, bringing him back to his senses. She was holding the woman’s face and caressing it gently. The woman in the wheelchair began to weep upon seeing him again.
What the hell happened to this woman? Did she get into an accident? And why do I have to see her again? And who is this woman in black tights in front of me? I will fire all my security personnel once I get out of this shithole! ’ Terrence thought to himself as he looked at them.
"Why are you staring at me like that?! It wasn’t the same stare you gave me when you picked me up last night, "she flirtatiously played with her hair using her fingers while biting her lower lip."
"You disgust me." Terrence spit in front of her to show his revolt.
"This woman, who you call a three-hour woman, happened to be my sister! After what you did to her, she got depressed and jumped off the building. Luckily, she survived, but look at her now! She'll never be able to walk again! You ruined her life, Terrence! " She was fuming with anger. She had been waiting for this moment. She saw how her sister suffered from her unrequited affection towards this guy in front of her. It’s time for some payback. She wanted to see him beg for his life, or rather beg for her to end his life with what she had in store for him.
She walked behind her sister, who couldn't even look at Terrence. She was shaking in fear. Terrence never realized that his words and actions could affect someone like this.
"Now, it's time for you to feel what she felt before." She started to laugh like a maniac as she turned her sister's wheelchair around. She whispered something to the guards before they left the warehouse.
One by one, the guards walked in Terrence’s direction. They were all laughing and screaming. He noticed that they were holding a baseball bat, metal pipes, and some were wearing brass knuckles, and they all had green bandanas tied up on their arms.
He tried to memorize all of their faces. ‘Thirty men, "five bearded, ten tall-looking, seven fat, and eight average-height. Great. I’ll have fun with these idiots later. ’ All their faces are now embedded inside his head.
'Where the f*** are you guys?!' He would never forgive them if one of these men touched his skin.
It's as if by cue, his squad heard him talk about them in his mind. The glass window above the warehouse broke, and the whole room was filled with blinding smoke. In a swift move, the chains were slashed using a sword, and someone pulled him to run. He couldn't see well because of the thick smoke. They were able to lead him into safety inside their getaway RV car.
"What the hell, guys? What took you so long?!" I yelled angrily while putting on some clothes they'd prepared inside the car. They were able to intercept his location as soon as he said the trigger word ‘code" on the tracking device before losing consciousness.
"It was Cody, boss. He got distracted by that chick wearing a leather bodysuit," "Katarina said, while busy preparing her explosives.
You know, I'm still a man, with needs. Let's go, they might catch up! " Cody is the one driving the car as they leave that place.
"Then you had the audacity to stalk your ex on her social media accounts? She doesn't deserve an asshole like you, Cody Williams. " Katarina responded while shooting the enemies on their motorbikes while trying to catch up with them. She also set up some explosives around the warehouse before rescuing Terrence. She pressed the enter key on the laptop, causing several explosions. She threw some on the ground as well, so they will never be able to catch up.
"You’re just like Boss T. You’re so nosy. Cody retorted. He glanced at the side mirror and saw three motorbikes still tailing them.
"Kat! We have 'tailers', "Cody announced. He thought he had invented that word, but Katarina had been telling him that there was a word ‘tailer’ in the dictionary. Cody immediately opened the roof of the RV.
"Got it," Give me a hundred fifty. I’ll teach these kids a lesson. Cody stepped on the accelerator pad. As soon as he reached hundred fifty based on the car’s speedometer, she gave Katarina a go signal.
"Now!"
Katarina propped herself up on the roof and quickly threw three explosive balls at the ‘tailers’. They tried to shoot her, but Cody maneuvered the car. Their RV has cameras all around it, and Cody can see Katarina from a small monitor in front.
In a matter of milliseconds, all three balls exploded, killing the three bikers in an instant.
"Nice shot, Kat!" Cody exclaimed.
Katarina lowered herself down and sat comfortably on the leather couch inside. She proudly said, "No one can escape the spheres of death."
"Spheres of death are not going to happen, Katarina Santiago. Stop inventing words. "
She just gave her a side glance. "Look who’s talking. Shut up."
With all that happening, Terrence was busy searching on his laptop for something he realized a while ago while looking at those men inside the warehouse.
‘I’ll make sure to find your hideout soon. You’ll pay for this.’
From the moment she fled her debut party, Bridgette has avoided being among the wealthy. She was fed up with her father setting her up on blind dates. Rich folks were all the same to her. They're solely interested in money, fame, and power. They have little regard for the feelings of others.But now, she's inside a four-hundred-thousand-pound car, sitting beside a filthy rich guy who she doesn’t even know. They were both silent throughout the ten-minute drive, but every now and then, Bridgette stole a glance from him."Why do you keep on stealing glances, lady?" he asked without looking at her. She felt embarrassed and looked away."I wasn’t. I just want to look on the other side of the road. " Bridgette nervously uttered, making him chuckle."Look at you blushing." He suddenly maneuvered the car towards the side of the road and hit the brake. He quickly released his seatbelt so he could turn his body sideways towards her. "Do you find me attractive?" His face is now inches away from
After that incident with Savannah, Terrence decided to lay low on picking up girls at parties. He became too careless so he ended up being a hostage. Savannah was the name of the woman who led the kidnapping incident. It tainted his reputation as the members of the Five Families spread rumors about it. They said he’s getting weak and putting the future of the organization in danger. He couldn’t care less of how they think of him at the moment. He just wanted to punish everyone who orchestrated that plan, especially that woman who dared lay her filthy hands on him. Women are nothing but playthings. They are incapable of doing anything rather than displaying their huge tits and pretty face. Terrence is preparing for the interrogation. He put on the scorpion mask and took his gun out of the drawer. He was about to go out when his in-ear monitor beeped. “Boss, everything is set. Where are you?” Cody asked. “Be there at five. Make sure everything’s ready,” he replied. Conrad, the head
Enemies infiltrated the mansion last week. It's a good thing Terrence and the rest of his crew were able to defeat them, but they lost a lot of their men. With what happened to Samantha, he’s pretty sure that this is a work of Sinisteros. He just couldn’t figure out how they were able to enter the mansion that easily. He also sent Tabitha first to the secret villa so she would be protected. She’s with Katarina and Sparrow there. Cody was left to recalibrate the mansion’s security features.He was having sleepless nights lately, and his crew were now overworked. He decided to relax a bit. It’s almost six-thirty in the evening. The short afternoon flew by, and then came sundown, gray dusk, and the stars glistening in the sky. He’s on his way to a party hosted by one of their family’s business partners. It’s a masquerade party, so he had to put on a nice tuxedo and a silver half-faced mask. The color of his white Audi convertible matches the color of his mask. It screams elegance and sop
Everyone at the party seems curious about her. They’re the center of attention now. He can't help but make up stories. He brought this on himself, so he needs to play the part, and hopefully she'll also play along.Oh, Alexandra is the daughter of a business tycoon I met in Paris. Their family owns two hundred fashion boutiques all over the world, "he said proudly."A fashion boutique? Why does she look like a walking fashion disaster then? I mean, look at her. " One of the ladies said, referring to her.The other ladies laughed and made fun of her appearance."You're basically wearing garbage!" the lady in a white halter top gown said.I think you're a witch! You gave Mr. Evans some love potion. That's why he's acting weird! " The lady wearing a red tube top dress was added."Right, we know his type," another lady wearing a black shiny dress said, and she walked towards me and clung to his arm. His pretend girlfriend stepped away from him because the lady in the black dress pushed he
"Whew! That was close! " Bridgette said, while catching her breath. She became the center of attention at that party against her will. If not for that strange, arrogant man, she’d be on her way to Hounslow already."No! This was all Daddy’s fault! If he hadn’t tricked me into going home, I'd never be in this mess! ’ Bridgette was furious because of what her dad did to him. The memory of what happened a few days back came rushing back to her as she sat behind the bush on this dark road, hiding from that strange man.Did you enjoy the food? Troy asked Bridgette after they both finished a platter of green salad. They’re at a lettuce farm a few miles away from Westminster. Troy decided to bring Bridgette here because they’ve been eating unhealthily, and based on what Chelsey said, due to her hectic schedule, she only eats premade foods nowadays.Bridgette seemed to like the place. Fresh air, fresh foods, and Troy’s company.This is the first time I've actually been to this kind of place.
The mansion appeared to be far too quiet today. Troy spends his weekends playing badminton in their mini sports center, while Tabitha does her weekend vlogging thing in the garden. He suddenly felt lonely, and he needed to spend time with his siblings today for some reason."Where are my brother and sister?" Terrence asked one of their housekeepers as he strolled around the mansion looking for them."Ms. Tabitha went to her friend’s house, and Sir Troy left the mansion at eight o’clock last night. "He hasn’t returned yet."Terrence felt disappointed and sad. But then he thought of a nice idea. When they’re both back, tell them to go to the villa. I’ll be waiting for them there, "he ordered. The maid nodded, bowed, and walked away.Terrence returned to his room and packed up some stuff he’d be needing for the weekend, loaded it on the car, and drove to the villa using his Land Rover. He wanted to do some off-road riding to ease his tension after all he had been through this week.It wa
“Kat, did you see that?” Cody whispered to Katarina. They had been observing Terrence for almost two hours already inside the training room. He had been kicking and punching and shooting things nonstop. Now he’s thwacking the heck out of the punching bag while murmuring. They couldn’t hear what he was saying. Cody thought it was because of the woman they had been looking for for days already. But it wasn't the case now.“I have eyes, Williams,” she annoyingly responded while staring at their boss. “He has been grumpy and absent-minded these days. I wonder what’s gotten into him.”“The strange woman.” Sparrow butted in while wielding her katana in front of her two colleagues.“Right! Boss is in love!” Cody blurted out loudly, getting Terrence’s attention. He walked towards them with a blank expression etched on his face.“What did you say?!” He grabbed Cody’s collar and gave him a piercing stare. Katarina and Sparrow were both shocked and tried to pull Cody away from their enraged boss
It’s been a while since Bridgette set foot in Hounslow. She stepped out of the train and breathed in the fresh scent of morning air along with the aromas of various street foods. Hounslow is a small town in Outer London. Some people find this place dull and boring, but for Bridgette, it is a piece of heaven."Hey, wait for me!" said a familiar voice behind her. She almost forgot that she had company. She turned her head and saw Troy walking briskly towards her."I’m sorry, Troy. I was just preoccupied with my thoughts. "I forgot about you," she explained. She turned to face the sidewalk and saw food stands from diverse cultures. She smiled as she remembered the first day she arrived in this small town.She continued talking. "It’s just that… it really feels like home here." Troy saw the dreamy look in her eyes as she talked about how much she really loved this small town. He wanted to ask something, but he chose to just stare at her. She looks like sunshine, shining brightly in the mo
Troy hired someone to clean Bridgette’s house today. It was such a mess when Bridgette left for the convention in Japan because she had no time to tidy up. He woke up early today as well to prepare everything at the shop for his fiance's return. Bridgette texted him an hour ago about being disqualified from the selection so he wanted to lighten her mood today by making sure that everything is in place for her arrival. He turned on the television and switched it to an international news channel and made it play in the background. He rolled his sleeves and began mopping the floor while the old lady cleaned the kitchen. He caught her looking at him. In a friendly tone, he asked her. “Why are you staring at me like that madam?” She was caught off-guard and almost hit the glassware behind her when she panicked and jolted. “N-Nothing sire. I just admire you for taking care of your lady. She’s so lucky to have you,” she said. Her eyes were twinkling with so much admiration for Troy. Tro
There was a minute of awkward silence followed by a loud shriek coming from Bridgette which startled the stewardess and the pilot. Bridgette’s face was buried in her hands as the stewardess approached them. She looked confused and worried. She glanced at Terrence first where she found it odd to see that his face was as red as a tomato while staring at the screaming lady in front of her. “Ma’am. Are you okay? What happened? Mr. Evans, what happened here? Are both of you okay?” Terrence cleared his throat first. “I’ll just go to the loo,” he said and quickly rushed into the restroom. When Bridgette felt that Terrence was not in the cabin anymore, she put her hands down and faced the stewardess. “Hi. I’m okay. I’m so sorry for that. I just saw a snake,” Bridgette tried to formulate a lie but the image of Terrence’s bulge appeared in her head again calling it a snake. “Snake??” The stewardess appeared more confused than ever. Bridgette glanced at the stewardess nameplate and decided t
Following that announcement, Bridgette’s phone began to ring non-stop. Various companies, even famous ones, began calling her asking for her to collaborate with them.“Miss Melinda! They began calling us too!” One of her staff told her while waiting for their scheduled flight back to London in the boarding area.“Miss Melinda, what’s happening? Are we really gonna’ work with all of them?” Another staff member asked. They were all overwhelmed with what Terrence did and those unending calls from strangers.“Turn off all your phones. We will not work with any of them,” Bridgette firmly advised.‘That condescending man! I will never forgive what he did! He humiliated me and my company on national television! He’s a disgusting rich folk! I hope he loses all his money and begs on the streets!’ Bridgette had been cursing Terrence in her mind over and over. In the middle of her internal battle, an intercom announcement blared all over the airport.“Announcement. This passenger of Flight 214
‘It was him, again!’ Bridgette tried so hard to avoid his gaze and hide her fear at the moment. She gathered all her courage and stood up for herself. He may look intimidating, but she won’t let him affect her goals and sole reason for being at that convention.She turned her head sideways quickly and drew a deep breath. "Good morning, sir. Thank you for the offer, but I wanted to win fair and square." She faked a smile. "Let’s just wait until all our respectable judges here cast their votes and ratings for our collection. "Thank you." She politely bowed in front of him afterward.The judges were too stunned to speak. Terrence secretly gave one of them a glare. He instantly knew what Terrence meant."Oh, uh. Ms.Sui, I think we're done rating your collection." He nervously flipped through the clipboard. Other judges panicked and joined him but was interrupted when Bridgette screamed. After Hinari interpreted what he said, Bridgette reacted."Stop! Why are you intimidated by this person
Time stopped. Everything stood still. Terrence couldn’t believe that the woman standing in front of him was the woman he had been looking for for so long. He doesn’t want to blink for she might disappear from his sight again.He suddenly grabbed her hands and pulled her closer to him and wrapped her in his arms.“It’s you! It’s really you! I’m not dreaming!” Terrence could only hear his own voice and heartbeat at the moment. The only thing he sees right now is her.“Where have you been?! Why did you have to leave?!” He was fighting back the tears trying to escape from his eyes. He cupped her face with his hands so he could see her face up-close.‘It’s her! It’s really her! This isn’t a dream anymore!’ Terrence tried to convince himself.“Let go of me! Lunatic!” She tried to release herself from his tight hug but he’s too strong so she just screamed so loud that almost everyone in the convention panicked and ran towards their location.Terrence felt a strong tug behind him. It was some
“Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. Welcome to Japan! Nihon e youkoso! We will be landing in five minutes. Please stay in your seats. Thank you.”Bridgette removed her purple sleep mask after hearing the announcement. Half of the almost twelve-hour flight she was asleep. She wasn’t able to get a lot of sleep the past few days because she needed to prepare for the convention. On top of that, they were also busy with their wedding preparations that’s about to happen three months from now.Her attention was drawn to the brilliant oval-cut sapphire ring on her finger, which resembled Kate Middleton's engagement ring. She immediately blushed and smiled as she recalled Troy’s simple wedding proposal to her.Troy invited him to go to the beach one fine day. He told him he wanted to unwind because they’ve always been busy managing their business together. Since they opened Sweet Memoire, Bridgette spent her entire week in the shop.Bridgette thought it was just an ordinary v
It’s eight in the evening. Stars adorned the velvet black sky draped over the entire city. The light breeze of the night played with Terrence’s hair. Terrence leaned against the trunk of his car. The chirping of cicadas served as the background music for his broken soul.With a bottle of cold beer in his hand, he drank a swig of it. The beer's velvety texture slid down his throat. His palette was overpowered by its harsh and highly carbonated flavor.Suddenly, he remembered the task he assigned to Cody a few days ago. They became so busy planning for the Second and Third Family’s downfall that he forgot to ask him about the development of their investigation regarding the strange woman’s disappearance.He took his phone out of his coat and pressed speed dial five. A few rings and Cody picked up the phone.“Cody the cool IT speaking. Zupp Boss T?” he responded, sounding like an L.A. boy.‘This guy had been watching too many American movies again picking up these slang words.’ Terrence
Somewhere in London…A man said “It’s not yet time for me to intervene. Shut it! None of this would happen if your troops aren’t stupid dipsticks!” He dropped the call and massaged his temples.‘Things are getting out of hand. I have to think of a plan.’ This thought ran through his head as he drew a deep breath out of frustration.It was a very ordinary Saturday morning in Hounslow. Bridgette was busy with house chores while singing and dancing. Earphones plugged in, and at full volume, she listened to music on her phone. She’s only in her pink oversized T-shirt and skimpy shorts. To save time, she opted to wear her hair in an unkempt bun. Late last night, she stayed up late, and thus she got up late as well.“I’m a simple girl, in my own little world, and I love my life, lo and behold! He came and said hello and my whole world changed”. She was swaying her hips and using the handle of the mop as her microphone. She was so engrossed with what she was doing that she didn’t notice Tro
Upon reaching the mansion of the Second Family in Kensington, west of London, Terrence called his cousin Brandon Evans before doing the attack. He may be angry with his uncle and his wife but he never wanted his innocent cousins to be implicated in his plan.“Hi, Brad. Who is inside the Second Family mansion now?”Brandon responded. Terrence could hear the sound of ocean waves in the background. “Oh, hi couz! Hadley is out and I’m in Hawaii. I think it's just mum and dad and the rest of the household. Why?”Terrence smirked. “Brilliant! Nothing. Enjoy the booze. Bye.”As he dropped the phone, he gave a hand signal to his team. As he raised his hand, some of his team infiltrated the mansion to kill the family’s guards discreetly.He hid his gun with a silencer on his jacket and wore his aviator glasses. He entered the mansion casually. The guards let him in because he’s a known relative of the Second Family.“Where’s uncle?” he asked.“Upstairs Sir Terrence,” one of the servants answer
