"WHAT?? WHY??" I screeched but both didn't bother to answer me as they entered in and pulled me out by hand and firmly caught my wrist.
What are they doing??
Detectives aren't suppose to just arrest me without any investigation..
I was shocked was an understatement because I was beyond shocked. I started to wiggle in their arms.
"You bitches, what are you all doing?" I snarled at them.
"Sorry Miss Nolan, you're not supposed to talk to us like that." The thin girl said and tightened her hold on my wrist.
"But atleast let me change my clothes." For god sake I was in my pajama.
" Daria!!^ prime prime the girls ignored me and called a woman in her early 40s as she came into view, she handed her something. That something was nothing but a tape, a freaking tape and a rope. And that girl stuck that tape to my mouth and tied my hands as she took my phone from me.
My precious phone..
I shot her a glare and tried to talk to her but all that came was a ugly muffling sounds from me.Daria gave me a sympathetic look and walked past me, into my apartment.
Why is she getting inside my apartment??
What's happening?
What are they doing here??
Are they some sought of a kidnappers.?.
OH God please help me!!
I prayed.
Daria came back with two suit cases in her hand, my eyes widened seeing those were my suit cases. Their surely kidnapping me.
NOO!!
Please god, knock some senses into them.
I'm just a poor girl.
The girls started dragging me towards the elevator as I wiggled in their arms.
Leave me you daughters of a bitch..
I wanted to yell but alas! I couldn't because of this freaking tape, which was plastered on my mouth.
I stomped on chubby girl's feet as she groaned in pain and harshly smacked my head.
"This girl!!" She glared at me.
"Calm down, Zoe." The thin girl said as we finally got inside the elevator.
Oh my pathetic life..
......
There were three sleek black expensive cars standing outside my apartment building and after seeing those cars I stopped wiggling because I was in too awe.
Is that here to escort me??
They don't want money from me as they are rich.
Then why the hell are they kidnapping me.?.
The girls pushed me into the middle car's back seat like a sack of potatoes and closed the door, the seat was too comfortable that my ass didn't get hurt.
I tried to open the door but it was baby locked.
Freaking baby locked..
Suddenly a deep voice shouted as I turned my head to the front seat and saw a handsome man sitting on the passenger seat. He rolled his window down and shouted.
"Zoe!! King wouldn't like this"
"Sorry sir, she was hard to manage. When we grabbed her, she started wiggling, shouting and she even cursed me and stomped on my feet. So we had plaster her mouth and tie her arms." Zoe, the chubby one said.
"It's okay." he waved a dismissive hand and the two girls walked by, Then he turned to me as I saw his face clearly, he was a total handsome with grey eyes, crooked nose and pink soft lips. His jet black hair was neatly combed and his prominent jaw was so sharp. He was well built, even though he was wearing a suit, I could make it out because of his strong arms. He was a perfect Adonis.
"I'm sorry for the inconvenience." He apologized and moved forward to remove the tape from my mouth.
But his handsomeness wasn't helping my situation, as soon as he unplastered me, I bursted out.
"You bastard!! How dare you kidnap me??" I gave a murderous glare to him.
"Oh woman!! Zoe was right. You've got a vulgar mouth." he shook his head in dismay before plastering my mouth again.
That bastard...
The chauffeur revved the engine before driving the car out of my apartment property, I kept staring at my apartment until it vanished.
My home..
I hope they have properly locked my apartment..
I was shaking and wiggling with uncontrollable rage. Fire was burning in my eyes as I glared at the handsome man and the chauffeur.
The handsome man saw me from rear view mirror and shook his head in dismay before turning around to face me.
"Promise me you won't shout or curse me." He said
The audacity this asshole got, how can I promise this asshole to not to curse him or shout at him while he's kidnapping me.
Freaking kidnapping me..
Son of a bitch..
Bastard..
My shoulder slumped in defeat as I sighed and shook my head in yes as I want my questions to be answered. His hand came towards my mouth and unplastered me.
I took a sharp intake of breath to control my boiling temper.
I asked my first question.
"Where are we going?" I asked calmly. "To Hawaii." he said with a smile.
"Why did you guys kidnap me?"
"Because kin....uhm." he pursed his lips and paused for a while before continuing. "I don't know." He shrugged.
He doesn't even know why he's kidnapping me..
Little cheap prick..
"Why are we going to Hawaii?" I asked my next question.
Again he pursed his lips, "I think she deserves to know" he muttered to himself but I heard it.
"To meet King." He replied. My blood was boiling like hell.
"Who is this fuc-" I began but he immediately interrupted me.
"Watch your mouth Miss Nolan." He said showing me the plaster.
Is he seriously threatening me by showing me that freaking tape..
I took a deep breath. "Okay, who is King?" I asked but I couldn't help the murderous glare I was giving him.
An amused smile formed on his beautiful lips. Why is this bastard smiling now??
"He is our mafia king"
"M-mafia king?" I stuttered. "do you belong to mafia?" Fear was evident in my voice.
Do mafia's really exist.?.
I was just out of criminal world, they do exist. It's not like I'm thinking about the werewolves.
Werewolves don't exist, right?
"Yes!" was his reply with amusement skating all over his expression.
Combination of fear and rage was mixing in me.
Be brave..
But bravery wasn't coming in me.
"Why are you taking me to him?" I asked in an wavery tone. "Because he wants to see you." "You idiot!! why he does want to see me?" I bursted out in fear and rage. Instead of replying, he glared at me and again showed me the plaster instead of a gun to threaten me.
As if that plaster is gonna scare me. But still I was scared.
"Okay." I sighed. "why do your king wants to see me?" I asked in a calm tone.
"That part.." he paused for a while and then continued "....will be explained by King."
"Is he..." I took a deep breath composing myself before continuing "going to kill me?" fear was evident in my face.
"Depends on King." he stated with a stupid smirk plastered on his handsome face.
But enough is enough, I took a lot more in for one day.
"You bastard, can't you just answer my damn questions properly." I snarled. His eyes widened before he said "You broke your promise Miss Nolan!!" He brought his hands towards my mouth but I moved back.
"Take away your filthy han-" I was cut off by him plastering my mouth. Hot tears rolled down my cheeks as realization dawned on me.
I'm gonna die..
Out of curiosity, I went towards the murdered spot and witnessed that murder and these mafia men saw me seeing them kill an innocent man. And now they want to erase every witness including me. I'm gonna die. I never thought that I would die this soon but unfortunately I'm going to die.
Why me? Why did I have to witness that bloody murder.
There's a saying, curiosity killed the cat. Because of my curiosity today I'm gonna die.
Now onwards there's no curiosity word in my vocabulary, it's vanished..
I sniffled.
Suddenly the car door opened and the two idiotic girls came and started dragging me, this time I didn't wiggle as there was no hope of me surviving. Again, I never thought that I would die this soon.
I sniffled.
I was sitting inside a private jet and it was so huge, I mean the interior was jaw dropping with the comfortable business seats but my jaw didn't drop as I was crying so hard thinking about my impending death.But anyway a small smile crept on my crying face,Atleast I got a chance to sit on a private jet before my death.As the time passed by, my eye lids felt heavy as sleep engulfed me.Someone patted my cheeks and I slowly opened my eyes and saw Daria standing in front of me with a small smile."Where are we?" I asked rubbing my eyes. I was unplastered when we entered the plane but my hands were still tied."Dear, we are in Honolulu."After 10 hours of long flight we reached Honolulu, city in Hawaii.Along with them, I got out of the plane and again there were three sleek black cars parked outside the airport. People were around walking by, but no one noticed me tied up.Nowadays people are just busy in their own lives..Can't blame them.. Because even I'm the same.."Atleast remo
"But I promise..." I exhaled deeply "...I won't tell it to anyone, I promise.""Promises are to break, Miss Nolan" Mr Kingston's face was still stoic.And oh my god! that velvety British accent voice.. I guess I love British accent more than American accent.."But you can trust me." I tried to convince him. "I know I can trust you, Miss Nolan but, Ashar is a son of the one of the most influential businessman." He stopped.I patiently waited for him to continue but he wasn't continuing.Damn... speak up man!!"So what??" I asked in an impatient voice.He turned towards the other people inside the room and gave a nod to them and they all left within a second. Leaving me and Mr mafia king all alone.And he continued."In the business world nobody knows me as King, for them I'm just Harold Kingston, that's it." He gave a pause for his words as he pursed his lips together for a while and then continued."So.."Pause.."... Ashar's father, however got to know that he was killed inside the g
I sat on the bed and thought about the dinner. I've read in billionaire novels, how they have feast all day for no reason. I mean, probably there will be many dishes like, meat balls, mashed potatoes, boiled egg, ham, bacon, sausages, chicken soup, duck roast, fried chicken, gravy, ramen and maybe Hawaiians famous dishes, poi, Loco moco, poke and at the end a tasty dessert.God!! My mouth instantly watered just by thinking about the dishes I'm gonna taste tonight.I got up from the bed and made my way downstairs, towards the dining area. Haro- I mean Mr Kingston was already sitting on the chair. It was circular wooden table with 5 seats. A beautiful flower vase was placed on top of the wooden table. I pulled a chair across Mr Kingston and sat on it.Mr Kingston was busy typing something on his phone, completely ignoring me. Daria entered the dining area with a wooden food cart which had two dishes and a jug of fruit juice and another jug of water. She placed the two dishes and two jug
I turned the door knob and stormed out of my room before slamming the door shut with a loud thud. I descended downstairs with my fist balled on my sides, my eyes blazing with fire and rage radiating off of me. As soon as I reached downstairs, I sprinted towards the lounge, where I usually find him. I scanned every corner of the lounge but sadly he wasn't here.I walked towards the million dollar kitchen and saw Daria washing the dishes and lost in her own world. I didn't want to vent my anger and frustration on her, so I took a deep breath to calm my nerves."Daria!!" She spun around abruptly."Oh!! Miss Nolan, your breakfast-" I cut her off."Where is king?" My tone was kind of cheeky when I said king."He's out for some business." She said.Probably out for some of his mafia business, because today is Sunday.. That asshole.."Okay." I nodded."And your breakfast is inside the microwave." She pointed a finger towards the microwave."I'll take it." She smiled.I took my breakfast fro
I was pacing back and forth with my hands locked from behind. I was waiting for Daria to knock on my door and call me out for dinner.I glanced up at the wall clock and it was already 8pm.Why Daria isn't calling me for dinner??Suddenly there was a knock on my door followed by Daria's voice. "Miss Nolan, dinner is ready." I grinned."Coming Daria." I said in a sing-song way before opening the door and sauntering out.I made my way towards the dining area and saw king sitting on his usual chair, scrolling down his phone. He was wearing a full sleeved grey hoodie and a sweat pants.I took a seat across him as Daria entered with the wooden food cart. King kept his phone aside as Daria placed a plate and glass before serving dinner to him.Okay it's time to open your mouth.I took a deep breath before opening my mouth."Um....uh..a frie-" straight away I was cut off by him."I don't talk during dinner or lunch or breakfast." He stated with his eyes fixed on his plate. "Whatever you have
It was a vast room with two palm trees at either sides of the entrance and huge rocks surrounded the room in a circular way. Some bushes were planted in between of the rocks with the streams of ocean blue waters flowing down the rocks with burbles. Glass walls were on the either sides of the room giving a beautiful view of the exquisite garden and pond down below. The water flowing down from the rock was marvelous giving an ethereal appearance to the whole room.In awe, I walked inside and looked around.It was a mini Maldives..It was a paradise, a complete heaven. This whole house is so creative, just so unique. I've never seen something so beautiful ever in my life.With a huge smile plastered on my face, I walked forward until I reached the water. I slowly put my feet into it and sat on the huge rock which was beside it.It was peaceful.So peaceful..I never thought that a man like Harold Kingston, who is a mafia king can be so green and plantsman. I thought of him like a black a
Dylan Scott.It was Dylan Scott.I opened my mouth to ask him something but he suddenly placed his index finger on his lips, gesturing me to stay quiet and I did.I slowly tilted my head to a side and with the corner of my eyes I saw those three well built men turning around and walking on the opposite direction of the road.Again I sighed.I glanced up at Dylan, whose one arm was still around my shoulders, his grey beautiful eyes calm and staring at the narrow road ahead of us. His jet black hair, slightly messy making him look more hotter. His prominent jaw covered with a slight stubble and his face was all calm and beautiful.Your staring at him for too long..I tore my gaze away from him as I felt my heart skipping a beat. He removed his hand off of me as we reached a black sleek expensive looking car. He opened the passenger door for me to get in.Oh! What a gentleman..I gave him a subtle smile before getting inside the car. He got seated in the driver seat as he revved the engi
I was sitting in an armchair in the balcony of my room continuously sighing and staring up at the beautiful view, the sun was about to set as the wind blew through my hair sending a chill down my spine. The balcony was also beautiful with plant pots around, beneath my feet was green grass carpet and behind me was the series of small plant pots hung on the wall with the help of the plant holder. A few miles away from this house was a beach and I could also see the water gushing on the seashore.Again I sighed contentedly.When I arrived, I didn't face Satan.. I mean Mr Kingston, he was not here which I was glad about. I apologized to Daria as she gave me her sweet smile before saying it's okay. And from then I just can't stop thinking about him.Dylan Scott.I've been blushing all day and sighing with contend. The way he put his hand on shoulder,so protectively. He was my saviour, my hero, my knight in the shining armour, my...Oh me!! I'm so whipped.I can smell love.Love is in the a
EMILYThat evening, I returned to work, going about my shift at the hospital as though nothing had happened the night before, answering my coworkers' questions about the time I'd spent with my sister but not mentioning to them that I had stolen her identity and ended up at a party that was more amazing than any- thing I had ever experienced before.I ran through my list of patients, taking care of each one as needed. Each person I took care of only served as a reminder of the path I had chosen in life. Sure, I was pleased with my career, and I found it incredibly fulfilling what I could do in the lives of others.But, when it came down to it, I was feeling incredibly envious of my sister. I wanted her life. I wanted to be invited to those parties and to meet those men. I wanted to be the one everyone knew from the cover of a magazine. I wanted to be wanted once again. Try as I may, there was no way I could get Kyle Cun- ningham out of my mind, and each time his face appeared in the ba
KYLEI left early that morning, letting Emily sleep in. I didn't know much about her, and I didn't want to break the spell of the night we'd spent together by talking about things that we didn't need to talk about. All too often, I would wake up next to a woman only to hear how she was getting back at her ex-boyfriend, or that she was doing something to bring drama into some relationship she was having.There were those who were lonely, and those who merely wanted to get a taste of what it would be like to be with a man like me. Sure, they were all intended to be one-night stands on my end, too, and I hadn't ever formed any real opinion about any one of them. But, at the same time, I didn't want the woman cur- rently in my bed to wake up and tell me something about herself that would change the way I felt about her.That thought filled me with confusion.I liked doing what I did and splitting the next day. It was the ego boost I needed; a modicum of fulfillment in a life that I wasn't
."Maddie please, don't do this." He sighed raising his hands in the air in a defence position taking another step forward.I opened my mouth and met out a piercing scream, it lasted for around twenty seconds. Long enough for Dylan to back away from me and the lady around the till to come rushing around.It felt as if the next few moments were played out in slow motion the women had barley reached me when I heard the door of the cafe slam open the impact a lot larger than mine that it caused the glass on the door to shatter.My eyes shot to the doorway which was being took up by Fours large stance who's whole body was clenched his chest heaving up and down his golden eyes set on me before flickering to Dylan.My eyes widened as he took no time before he stalked over his long legs carrying him to my side where he reached out grabbing ahold of my arm pulling my into his large chest blocking my view from the rest of the cafe.I felt heat radiating of his body as his chest huffed and puff
EMILY"Now, tell me absolutely everything. I'm shocked that you even went, and I want to hear how you held up with the rest of the crowd." Maddy said as she walked in through the door.I smiled and shook my head, also unsure of how I had managed to do so well with the situation I had put myself in. I wouldn't have said that I'd handled things perfectly, but I had certainly held my own in the club. "You're not mad at me, are you?" I asked as the two of us walked into the kitchen.Maddy laughed."I have to admit, I thought it was a little strange when you hopped into myride but when you didn't answer my call, I figured you knew what you were doing." She shook her head with a mischievous grin and I smiled, too. I still felt the ex-citement in my chest, and I was eager to relate to her what had happened.Maddy took a seat at the counter and I handed her a glass of iced tea beforegrabbing my own glass and settling in to begin."Well, as you know, we arrived at that mansion up on the hil
EMILYlopened my eyes, slowly blinking as I looked around the room. I had a headache from the champagne the night before, and it took me a moment to remember where I was exactly. Slowly, the events of the previous day came to mind, and I began to piece together what today would hold.I remembered having the disagreement with my sister, and began searching for my phone. I then remembered that I had dropped my clutch out in the living room, and figured my phone must be inside. Looking around the room, I could see that Kyle was already gone, having gotten dressed while I was still asleep.I hurried out to the living room in nothing but my underwear and, sure enough, found my phone inside my clutch. Kyle had been kind enough to pick it up off the floor and leave it sitting on the coffee table for me, and I ignored the feeling of embarrassment that threatened to swell up in me.I was a grown woman, and I was allowed to do anything I wanted-includinghaving a one-night stand with a person t
KYLEIhad to admit, I wasn't entirely sure what had come over me. I'd had many one- night stands in my life. In fact, it was my preferred way of doing things— get the girl in bed, have fun, then get away from her as fast as possible. Miss Shadows, on the other hand, had piqued my interest.I hadn't had any real expectations when I'd taken her up to the party upstairs, but seeing her reaction first to those who were enjoying each other, then seeing her in bed with me, sparked an interest in me that I had never experienced be- fore. I had no intention of committing to her or making any kind of promises that I would ever see her again, but I did wish to get to know her body a littlebetter and that wouldn't be possible if we stayed at the Gathering. There was a little voice inside my head that warned me to be careful taking any woman home, especially one like Emily. Not only did I feel a connection to her, but I could sense that she was feeling a connection to me.It had become easy for
EMILYIwalked quickly and silently next to Kyle as we made our way through the hall. I wasn't sure how he knew the rooms in the house, but I trusted he knew what he was doing, and he wasn't going to take me anywhere I wouldn't feel safe. The rooms were all dark, with some dim lights lining the hallway.It was clear that, though there were many people in the room behind us, it wasn't entirely encouraged for people to be in these back rooms. I didn't even know for sure who owned the house, nor what their connection was to my sis- ter. For a moment, I hoped I wasn't doing anything that was going to get her in trouble. The feeling was a brief one, however, as Kyle kept his hand on my back, guiding me past room after room.The sounds that came from inside several dark corners revealed that we weren't the only two people to have this idea, but it was clear that Kyle didn't have any intention of exploring my body in the shadows of a doorway like some high- schooler. He wanted to take me some
KYLEIkept my palm on the small of Emily's back as we headed for the staircase, fresh drinks in hand. There were a few men and women scattered along the way- some engrossed in conversation, some busy watching the events on the dance floor.As for me, I had come to the conclusion that if you've seen the dance floor once, you've seen it a thousand times, and I felt I wasn't missing out on anything tak- ing her away from itI knew this was her first time at the Gathering, but Emily seemed to be enjoyingherself, in spite of the nerves she must be feeling. I had to hand it to her, shedid manage to fit in with the rest of the guests, though it was evident she hadn't done anything of this sort before. I could feel a slight tremble in each step she took as we mounted the stairs, and I added gentle pressure to my palm on her back. There was no doubt in my mind that she was going to be fun in bed, but Ididn't want her to feel nervous taking this next step in her night. She was sobeautiful,
EMILY"Please, call me Kyle."The man they'd introduced as Mr. Cunningham sat at the bar next to me, sip- ping on his whiskey and smiling at me as though I were the only girl in the room. Every now and then, he would turn his attention to the other guests, but I never felt like he was focusing on anything but our conversation."But that really is enough about me. I'd love to hear about you; I don't recall see-ing you here—or in any other club around here for that matter," he said, look-ing down at me as he lifted his glass to his lips and took a drink.I immediately felt flustered and began stumbling over my words. I had kept upmy sister's identity throughout the entire evening, but now that I was with aman who not only found me attractive, but didn't recognize me as my sister, I felt I had the opportunity to drop the act and tell him the truth."My name is Emily Shadows. I'm a model." So much for telling him the truth.Kyle looked at me for a moment with raised eyebrows, as thoug
