Her hand was enclosed by his strong warm hand. Opening her eyes, she soaked the morning light in her eyes. She smiled and felt his hand's grip around her as it was some safe environment for her. She mostly didn't get him in the room when she woke up. She slipped her hand from his hold. He grasped her slipping fingers and snapped open his eyes. Bringing out a gun in his second hand. He perplexed when he didn't get anyone around them but the sound of gasp from her parted lips.
" Goo-d morning, " She tried to smile but his gun made it faded.
Closing his eyes again, he threw his head back on the pillow, " Morning.... Did I terrified you? " he asked in his slow voice.
" No, I um, I startled you." She sighed. " Can I go to see them in the hospital? " She asked him apprehensively.
He opened his eyes and gazed at her. He lifted his hand to touch her b
Her eyes were searching for him, walking in the washroom, around the room, hall. She almost found him in the entire room. Hearing the sound of the opened door, she scooted out of the washroom with a broad smile as hoping to see him, but it faded soon. " Ana! It's you. " She said loudly, a bit shocked. " You looked shocked to see me. Wasn't you expecting me? " Ana asked. " No, I was expecting Liam. " She blurted. " It's okay. That's what you married friends do after getting married. Forget your friends, cousins, almost everyone." Ana folded her arms and gave her a look. " Sorry, I didn't mean to. " She said sadly. " Never mind. I have cooked for you, " Ana smiled. " Pasta? " She asked in excitement. " Yes, come. " Ana
The conference hall was dimly lit, enough to glance at questioning faces of all. He could spot all the mafia leaders, some sitting, some standing and some arguing. Hall was reverberating with one solid word ' Illegitimate child ' He felt the rush of anger boiling in his veins. His jaw was clenched tight as noises were hitting his eardrums. His hands were fisted, " Enough! " he forced it through his clenched teeth which came as a roar. He roared from his head chair. Their faces blanched with fear. Dead silence spread in every corner of the hall. " You all are misled with half of the information. Or I should say the truth is completely unheard by you all. " Danil said. All heads swirled toward Danil, " I'm that child of my father, you all are talking about. Not Brother. " Danil said. He stood up angrily from his chair. The chair screeched back violently. His father stopped him. Furiously, He was glaring straight
Many hours left. Sun was up, then set down. She didn't stir which was wrecking him. He didn't budge from her side. He was still holding her hand. More hours passed. Eyes boarded in her. Everything before arriving at this room especially her medicines, staffs were carefully checked and inspected. He was brushing his thumb on the back of her hand. He felt her fingers' movement in his hand. He impatiently waited for her to hold his hand again. He was taking care of preparation and administration of food and medicine for day and night. He didn't want to give his enemies another opportunity to hurt her. His face was gloomy. He was feeling incomplete without her. He wasn't taking any calls, his phone was dead in his pocket. He wanted to take care of her, wanted her to talk to him. He felt her fingers fastened around his fingers, " Rose?" He said her name sweetly. Her eyes were fluttering, " Doctor " He called out.
This morning, she was feeling more energetic and healthy. As usual, she found him on the half side of the bed. She wasn't in the hospital anymore. But it wasn't even looking like her room either. Doctors and nurses were around her all day and night. She was a little feeble but could manage it. " Good morning, " She smiled. " Good morning, How are you feeling today? " He asked, with a smile. " Better, " She smiled. She could sit by herself but he didn't allow her. She wanted to bathe. But she wasn't getting how to say him! Nurses helped her. It was early morning and she couldn't catch the sight of any helper. " You wanna say something? " He asked. After many days, she was beholding him with his laptop. " I wanna bathe. " She hesitated. " Sure, I'll arrange it. " He smiled, giving a quick g
Reluctantly, he walked behind them. He was glancing at her and found her smiling every time. Although she was around trusted people of his life. Still, his heart was sending a warning to him to be more careful. His gaze was moving everywhere, especially what was happening around her. He could not tolerate and he would be unable to rein his rage if he would see her unconscious once again. His heart was palpitating so strong that he knew she had caught his gaze. The heat was seeping from his body. Morning time's memories hovered in his mind, shaking them away he concentrated on keeping her safe. " She's among family. Don't worry. " Danil whispered. " She also had been poisoned among her family. " He snapped. He inhaled slowly, " Did you get anything from the man who attacked Angelina and Mel. " He asked. " He doesn't know anything. He does all this just sake of some money. " Danil replie
Waking up with the first ray of the sun, she stretched her arms. Her one arm was blocked by something on her side. She turned on her back to peep around. Liam's eyes were closed. He was sleeping calmly. She was watching him after many days sleeping like this, calmly. Indeed after this incident, today he slept peacefully. His frown was ironed. She yawned and covered her mouth with her hand. She straightened up and yawned again. Putting her feet on the dark red carpet, she went out of the room. No one made her wake up the afternoon. Liam let her sleep as much as she wanted to. She was thirsty and her stomach was growling loudly. She went into the kitchen and opened the double door refrigerator. It was fully loaded with her favourite edible stuff. She grabbed some fruits and a water bottle. Closing it behind, she sat on the table. She twisted the lid of the bottle and was going to touch its rim with her lips. She felt bottle grabbing from her hand forcefully, " What are you doing? " He
She hurriedly put on her black sandals and rushed down through the regal stairs. Her mother in law was waiting for her down in the Hall. When she reached the hall. Olivia was sitting on the couch, eyes on the latest magazine. She saw a new face standing behind the couch. " Mom, " She smiled while inhaling deeply. " Rose, are you alright? You still need rest, you can't run like this. " Olivia stared at her. " Yeah, mom. Don't worry. It's just stairs. " She tried to show it, normal. Her rapid breaths made it unsuccessful. " Hmm, this is Vanessa Hudgens. She's your new bodyguard. " Olivia said with her usual smile. " What happened with Mel? " She befuddled, " Is she alright? " Mel did wrong to her, still she was not ready to punish her. " Vanessa, " Olivia gesticulated at Vanessa.
She hit her back on the mattress. She wasn't alone in her room. The door wasn't locked or closed properly, because of security reasons. She could see four bodybuilders, kinda guards holding guns and guarding the door. Vanessa was sitting in the chair, moving her eyes around although there were only two of them in the room. There was a security troop, which someone had to cross to reach her. She wasn't feeling sleepy. She was used to sleeping when she felt him around her. She was staring at her cell phone. She was in her old room. She pulled out the drawer of the nightstand and plucked old dairy from it. She had written everything in it which she remembered about her family. She moved her fingers on the written name Caspian Boo, Rick Boo. She remembered she used to say mom to two women in her childhood days but it had been a blur with the time. All she remembered about them through this dairy or her memories. Tears rippled on the brink of her eyes.
ARIANA She wasn't surprised when Kairo suddenly decided to leave Detroit. She was back in his mansion. She hissed in pain as she softly placed her finger on the bruise over her forehead. Her blonde hair was in unruly waves and cascading down her shoulders. Her phone began to ring. She swirled her head at the desk. Sauntering forward, she swiped it up in her hand with a smile, "Sal, I'm fine. I've told you many times." She muttered. "Yeah! Yeah! I trust you. Still, I wanna know. How are you now?" She wasn't regretting that she couldn't spend time with her brother as he was busy catching the trouble. She sat on the couch, staring down at the carpet, "I'm good." 'I haven't seen my husband after reaching home. He's not answering my calls. I don't know what to do.' The door opened softly. Her head jerked at it, her breath caught in her throat at the sight of him. She was looking at him without blinking, "I'll call you later,
KAIRO His cuffs were unfastened and his sleeves were rolled up. His hands were gloved. A knife was gleaming in his hand. The blade was covered with blood. The crimson was dripping on the floor. A low growl rumbled through his chest, his glare was fixed at him. There wasn't any part of his skin visible clean. He was covered in his own blood. His fingers were missing, several cuts on his palms and the back of his hands. "Leave something for us, Kairo." Danil's smirking tone reached his ears. He leaned against the opened door, looking down at struggling, groaning in pain Tony. Tony stared at them with hate in his eyes. The cloth in his mouth was muffling his screams. Kairo glowered and fisted in his face, "Lower your gaze, piece of ****!" He snarled, punching his hand one more time. He made another hit over the back of his hand, on the several cuts. Tony howled in pain. His face creased.
A shiver moved up her body when she found their guards' gazes on her. She managed a nervous smile and took the way to the kitchen. Her body tensed involuntarily when they started to walk behind her. She tried hard not to show fear. They just needed a little hint and it would reach Kairo. She could have lost her mother forever. Her heart was racing so hard and fast she was fearing it was enough for them to notice that something was off. The tension in the air was surrounding her or only she was feeling it. The maids looked up at her. She ignored them as her gaze fixed on the second door of the kitchen. She looked over her shoulder. They were busy inspecting the area. One of the maids stepped forward, her head bowed. The staff wasn't changed. She recognized her immediately. She could ask for their help but she didn't want to put their lives in danger. She could only hope that her husband would save her from her father's danger. But no one could save the
She had learned how to bury those feelings, she felt when she found herself alone in the room. She was frightened to imagine the stalker around her every time. The fear and anxiousness, she couldn't control. The heavyweight that she was feeling in his absence was making her suffocate. She blinked a few times, plucking her eyes away from the door. It opened softly. Her heart began to race in anticipation. A slow smile appeared on her face. "Ria," Her mother walked into the room. She didn't let her smile drop, "Mom," She hurried her feet at her mother, "Is dad treating you..." Marcella shook her head, "Did he hurt you?" She cupped the side of her face. A deep frown foamed over her face, "Why would he hurt me, Mom?" She shook her head in disapproval, "He's not father," She added, looking into her eyes. Marcella glanced at her, looking stunned, "He isn't cruel." "Why would he?" She relaxed that her mother wasn't g
Tension radiated from her. She didn't want to come and meet her family in such a condition when she knew there was a stalker out there who was too dangerous. Silence filled her thoughts when she looked at her husband. It wasn't any special occasion. Only Vincent and his trusted guards knew the reason for their arrival. Her father and mother and the entire outfit were unaware of it. She was planning to stay away from her father. They had busy days. It didn't count when she was in danger. Her father, Dominick, had thrown a party welcoming them. She ran her fingers over the diamond necklace around her neck. Her gaze halted on a simple thick bangle of silver. Kairo had asked her to not remove it. She wasn't interested in putting it on, but Kairo insisted on it. It looked like a classic piece, but she still found it boring. The silence could be felt around her. She was dreading it. She stared off toward the garden out of the window. She hadn't prai
KAIRO He wanted to be in the middle of the street, fighting, drawing blood from his enemies' bodies. He sharply breathed in, adjusting his tie. He ran his hand over his coat. His brother's gun was lying beneath it. The clicks of the heels drew his attention, decreasing his frustration. He moved his gaze on her body swiftly. She was wearing a grey dress, the dress was moulding with her body. She smiled at him when his gaze met her through the mirror. She couldn't hide her fear. "I'm ready," She breathed out and fidgeted on her feet. Buttoning his coat, he turned to her, "You don't need to be afraid when I'm with you," He said. After staring at him for a second, she nodded her head, "Um, I saw Travis out of our door." She said, nervously. A grin appeared on his face, his forehead creased as he walked over to the door and pulled open it. His brows furrowed further at the sight of Caspian, "You're late,
KAIRO The phone vibrated in his pocket. He took it out and smirked at the number. He hit on the accept and put the phone to his ear, "I wasn't thinking to reach this to your ears so soon," He said in a casual relaxed way. "I don't accept my men's betrayal." His voice was cold as usual on the speaker too. "You should know what's running under your nose," He clenched the phone in his hand in exasperation, recalling the scared face of his wife. "It's Dominick's family matter," "Now, it's out of control and affecting my family." His jaw tightened. "I've given words to Liam. I won't interfere between him and his prey." He clenched his hand, "Good for you," He hit on the end button. He cursed as he didn't ask him the reason for calling him. He didn't want to call him back. "You need to use your head, instead of anger." He spun, pocketing his phone. His brows creased as he looked at Danil, "What do you want,
She strolled out of the house. She was clutching her purse in hand. 'Olivia has shown trust in me. I can't let it break. I can handle kids. I have seen Rose and Isha. Rose is going to the hospital for the checkup. Olivia is staying with her and Isha doesn't want to miss any opportunity to be with her sister in her pregnancy.' Opening the back door, she sat in the car. She wasn't familiar with guards yet but she recognized Rachel immediately when opened the passenger side door and hopped in. Rachel gestured at the driver. Her smile was telling she was content with her life. The flash of time spent with Kairo made something warm and unusual grow within her. She watched the vast plain grassland enclosing the private road. She busied herself with her phone, strolling down her I*******m account. She didn't post her pictures, she used them to see the latest fashion. The car slowed down. She didn't look up from her phone. She froze when
She was staring at her reflection. Minutes passed. Her hair was wavy and resting on her bare shoulders. She applied red lipstick after doing the makeup. The door cracked open. She glanced over her shoulder, her heart immediately skipping a beat before taking on an erratic note. She watched him walk in. His look was different from his usual look. He was draped into a black t-shirt and black jeans. She couldn't force her gaze away from him. His expression never gave anything away. He wasn't in a foul mood, for sure. She spun on her pointed heels and smiled. The air around him was carrying power. The strength in his body was evident despite his dark clothing. Shoving his hand out of his pocket, he offered his hand. She liked it when he did so. Her smile broadened. She wanted him to return the smile, but she wasn't keeping expectations. He squeezed her hand when she slipped her hand in his. He made her walk out of the room. She wanted
