Heartbreak, torture nothing was essential when he had a aim. She was moving quicker than he was expecting from a pregnant woman. She was grasping the clutch to her side as it was everything to her. His intense eyes didn't leave her for a second. She was precious. She shouldn't be out alone in a strange city when her enemies were finding her in every corner of the world. He pulled his hood closer, his mask was hiding him to be recognized. His expressions were stern. His gloved hands fisted. It wasn't that cold but soon the weather would change. He didn't peel his eyes off of her for one second. He didn't want to lose her. He vowed to protect her. The phone vibrated in his pocket. He slid his hand in without averting his eyes without stopping his treads. "Why are you calling me?" He snarled in a low voice. "I'm paying you more than enough money to keep my daughter-in-law safe." A hissed voice reached his ears making his jaw clenched ti
After selling my diamond ring, I exited the store. I bought it when Duante brought me home. He never gave me cash or phone until I stubbornly asked for them. I rarely saw cash. He made certain I got everything without asking. After shopping, I checked into the motel. I was using my fake ID. Without a passport I wouldn't be able to leave the country. I had to find sources here. Strangely, none of his trusted men wanted to help me; that could happen only in one case if Duante had himself ordered them to do so. I wasn't playing his game anymore. It was quiet in the room. I ate and ordered some more cookies, sweet bread if I felt hungry again. I had enough money to travel the Italy now. I felt tears in my eyes. I didn't want to sob. I got in my bed hoping to get some sleep. I hadn't thought about what would be my next move. I stared out of the window. Many questions were forming in my head. Sleep wouldn't come easy when I knew people were looking for me, And
Savior punched the direction in the GPS and motioned with his finger at the display. I stared at it "I don't know your name." I asked, looking at the dead bodies. The shop owner was still looking terrified as he came to peer out and rushed in again. He must have called the cops. "Devil," He hoarsely said. "The famous devil?" Assassin asked, looking a little shocked. "I should recognize you from your look. No one has ever seen you." Devil nodded. I stared at him. He was draped in black from head to toe. "Um, the shop owner must have called the police." I muttered. He was looking terrified. I didn't want to get in trouble. "I've messaged the cleaned-team." Devil said. "I don't know what a cleaned-team is?" I asked. They were dead bodies, not a bin of wastage. "You don't need to know, ma'am. Did you take your medicine on time and eat your meal?" He asked, worriedly. "You mean Vitamins. Yes." I nodded, knowing the instructions my
Devil pulled the car in front of the three storey house. It was full with all the luxuries which a looker from outside couldn't expect. But it reminded me of a beautiful gilded cage. I glanced out of the window with furrowed brows. I could see them coming at us, their hands were ready to take their guns out. My furrow deepened seeing Rocky coming behind them. "Keep Rocky away from me." I told Assassin in a tense voice. His rude behaviour that day changed my mind. I didn't trust him. I would love to keep my distance from him. "If he's troubling you... " Assassin trailed, he didn't need to complete. His scowl was telling he knew. "I can talk to him if…" His if was holding a promise of many bad things. Devil's head turned to him. He was back in covering himself with his hood and dark clothes from head to toe. But I could guess from his deep tone his eyes must be narrowed at him. "Just keep him away. That's it." I told him. They were approa
Tom wasn't wrong when he said football. She was looking round with her six-months-pregnancy-stomach. I wanted Duante to be around me, laugh with me. Tom left after the doctor declared me and the baby healthy. Uncle and his lunatic son thought I ran away with the help of five. The assassins who attacked me were dead and their dead bodies were found ten Miles away from where they were killed. Still, Tom didn't want us to stay here long. We were shifting to a new place this morning. I told him that I didn't want to be in a cold place. He fulfilled my wish. The sun was up. Every morning raised hope inside me. A hope to meet him or to have a glimpse of him in real life. I dreamed of him daily. I was holding our baby and his strong arms around us. Recalling It brought a broad smile to my face. Zhang got a message that Devil would reach here with the video. He had assured me that I was thinking correct. Confusion marred my face when I heard the clicks o
He was standing in the dark, leaning against the tree trunk. He was toying with the key and his eyes were on the road. He could see the truck under the street lights. Six dead bodies were lying around it. A black Mercede pulled at some distance. He gestured at his man, waving his hand slightly. He knew who was behind the wheel. He didn't trust anyone particularly him. The man took out the gun and pointed at the car. He didn't blink as he didn't want to miss anything. The door opened and an old man wearing an expensive suit climbed out of the car. His jaw slightly got tight when he saw dead bodies. A smirk lifted the one side of his lips, his eyes never leaving him as he moved forward The man strode ahead leaving the door open. Anger made his hands fists at his sight. He wanted to add one more dead body but he felt helpless at that time which infuriated him more. He took his phone out and slid it up to his ear. His phone
The world seems to be slowing down these days. I never thought bad things would happen to us. It never even occurred to me. I was safe and happy with him. But now, I was the saddest person in the entire universe. Two days were the longest time I had ever spent. It was the same days without my husband around me but these two were more torturous. "Did you hear anything from them?" I asked Assassin. This was a stone house, a giant one and full of luxury. I came out only when the sun was out and shining bright. It was cold but the stone house kept it away. It was a beautiful place but without my husband everything was dull. "Yes, ma'am. The bad weather has caused delay to them. The sun is sinking. It will be cool soon." He looked up at the sky. The grey clouds were running to cover it all. I glanced at him and nodded. I trot inside. It felt like a miracle to see a stone house and it could be beautiful too. I had my meal in my room as I did daily. I fell
I woke up with a startle. Two hands were touching me. I yanked them away and reached for my gun under the pillow. "How dare you come into my room and touch me." My eyes were wide open as I stared at him. Her eyes widened in fear. She stumbled back. "Just routine checkup, ma'am." "What kind of a check up is this that you couldn't wait for me to wake up?" I asked exasperatedly. "Ma'am." She gestured with her hand to lower my voice. Her dreadful eyes turned to the door. "You and baby are healthy. Nothing to worry about." She whispered in fear of someone hearing us. I snorted.I might not know the things like Mini and Rose. But I love my baby. I ate on time. A loud noise of something falling and someone arguing reached my ears. I got on my feet and paced over to the door. It was already unlocked. Then I remembered, Tom closed it behind him. My eyes dilated in a thunderstruck when Tom's head snapped to one side with the impact
A smile crawled on my face. The dark was hiding me. They took care of each other like brother and sister. Tom should be with his wife. He was comforting my scared wife as a father does to his scared little girl. "I won't talk to him when you find him. He shouldn't have disappeared." My wife wasn't looking certain about her threat. It broadened my smile. Like my wife, Tom believed it too that I could be alive and out somewhere watching them. They weren't wrong. They don't need to know it, just for now. "Do you think Andrew could be the stalker?" I saw fear in her eyes. I should have listened to her when she first voiced her dread. It's never too late. We might not be together but we were safe. And we were a family. Tom shook his head. "You're not thinking about it, your nightmare or anything. Your baby needs you now. You should be happy." "I don't know how to smile and be happy without him. He said right I didn't die without him. But I don't know how to l
I hopped in silently and accelerated the car. My phone vibrated in my pocket. I ignored it but it continuously began trembling in my pocket. I clicked on Bluetooth to answer it. "Boss, One of them survived. Aaron sir went in to interrogate him, himself." "And" I kept my eyes on the road. I could not take the nagging thought out of my head that they could have kidnapped her. There would not be any chance left to capture him but to attack him. "He has given us an address." It could be a trap. I hadn't known anyone spilling their guts out of their mouth until Aaron had made wounds on his already cut skin. "I'm not certain." I muttered. If I wasn't sure about anything, I couldn't sit until I got into the bottom of it. "Hire someone from a local gang. I need the report within six hours." I clicked to disconnect it. Meeting with Aaron or everything could wait. There was something essential. Why did my wife run away? I pulled t
"Devil," I hoarsely said. I was chasing my wife, and I checked into the same motel. It must be related to the footage. I was fucking furious at her My jaw was clenched under the mask. "The famous devil?" Assassin asked, looking a little shocked. He didn't know anything about me being Devil. But he was aware that there were some hidden guards watching my wife from afar. No one needed to see the face behind the mask. "I should recognize you from your look. No one has ever seen you." I nodded. Anger was still boiling inside me. My wife's eyes were on me. I looked at her, coldly. "Um, the shop owner must have called the police." She muttered, looking nervous. "I've messaged the cleaned-team." I said. Drake would be here with guards soon. I needed one of them alive. It could be a big help. My wife wouldn't be the only one Andrew would have sent to be kidnapped. For now, I wasn't going to leave my wife's side. "I don't know what a cleaned-te
Is this happiness I'm feeling? Did my father feel it when my mother was pregnant? I would have definitely asked him if he were alive. But I haven't been this relentless then. I ran my thumb over the black-and-white photo. My child. I haven't seen him, hold him but I feel attached to him. Tom must be feeling this. I couldn't talk to him. There are some battles that we have to face alone. He was acting on my advice and concentrating on the business. But he was also digging into the matter, trying to find the person who was behind all this. I heard the softest footsteps. It was easy to detect when you were aware of your surroundings. My eyes lifted from the file. Cristiano strode into the hall, his hands were shoved in his pockets. I motioned him to the front chair. " I was expecting you, but not alone?" My brows shot up. I was certain he would fall in love with Angela. Her frightened look reminded me of the day when I first saw my wife, draped in a bea
I did everything to keep her safe. I'll do it again. I have pushed her away from me. I hope it will be the last time. I pinched the bridge of my nose. It's going to be a difficult time for her. I hope she will keep my words in her mind. "We should tell Tom." Aaron's voice reached my ears. I shook my head. My wife would do anything to hear the truth from him. Uncle and his son, Andrew would notice it instantly. Andrew might be an eccentric person but he was good at playing mind games. It kept him alive for a long time. He should die in that building. "I want them to trust that. If he would be smart, he would remember our last conversation." I stared out at the night sky. I never let my guard down. My brothers know me. My wife has witnessed the happy side of me. I'm possessive and protective. "You're right, but I hate this." He told me. "I know." I muttered, it was a hard decision to take but to end this game forever, I had to do t
For now, it would be only Aaron and Drake. It would be better if fewer people knew about it. "Drake, call them to meet me in the warehouse. Now!" He said. Aaron's eyebrows shot up. "We have a meeting after two hours." He rubbed his fingers on his two-day-old stubble. "He can wait. Just message him this location. Traffic is going to keep him busy. It would earn us some more time." His blazing gaze turned to Drake. "There should be no trace of human activities." Drake nodded. "We can call them after meeting with Antonio Sir, boss." He suggested. "Just tell them to be here." He lashed. Drake bowed his head and drifted out of the old wooden office. "You should hear him. There may be a point in his suggestion." Aaron said. He smiled his way. "I know what I'm doing." His grip fastened on the back of the old chair. Aaron looked at him, holding no expression on his face. "I have a feeling. You have already planned eve
AFTER TWO DAYS... Anger surged through him. He leaned across the counter and stared out with a deep scowl. "He cut his body in hundred pieces," Drake said, a disgusting look on his face. "And Sofia and her son?" He asked. His arms were folded over his chest. His hands were fisted tightly that his knuckles went white. "Arsh and Aakash are searching for them. We haven't gotten a clue yet, boss. " Drake shook his head. "Boss, Aaron Sir has reached," Cey said. He slightly nodded his head and pushed him away from the counter. His eyes were matching the color of his, and two inches shorter than him, his cousin, walked into the hall. Opening his arms, he embraced him. "Brother, it's important or I would have never asked you to come when Eveleen is pregnant." Aaron said. He patted his back strongly. "Is everything alright?" He asked him. "You need to hear it out." Taking long strides back, he took the couch. "I can trust your Ten?" He ask
Antonio's POV I hadn't heard from my daughter. I had called her grandma. But she wasn't answering. He had sent his guard to check on them. He never liked the habit of her denying the security around her. She wanted to lead a normal life and he loved her so much to give her anything. Duante walked in the hall. Drake was always with him. He still remembered the small boy smiling but it was for a short period. After his parent's death, he adopted a cold expression. He was glad that he opened up for his wife. He could still see a little glimpse of his happy side around his wife. But it faded after he lost his memories. "Did we get any clue, son?" Antonio asked, getting on his feet. His head was still mulling over his daughter and grandchild. He glanced at him for a long second. "Is Sofia alright?" Duante asked, his poker face wasn't giving anything. "It has been a week. I called Betha's house. She didn't answer. I'm worried. She always leaves a message
He was smirking, madness could be seen in his eyes. His lustful eyes were glued on the display. He ran his thumb on her rosy lower lip. "Soon! The day isn't that far. The day you'll be in my arms, beneath me." He laughed, rubbing his hand on his chest. "Er... It's a bad idea. She's pregnant." Cole told him, looking over his shoulder at the display. A wave of fierce anger rose in him. He jumped on his feet and turned to him with a sharp expression. He grasped his neck in a death grip. He began to jab several punches in his face. Cole groaned in pain, trying to dodge his punches and lifting his both arms. It only infuriated him more. He was a mad person. His knuckles were crimson with his blood. He broke his jaw. " Andrew," Max came running into the room. "He's important. You can't ruin his face." He curled his both arms around his middle pulling him away from him. Cole fell to the ground, and the front of his shirt was soaked in his blo
