Chapter 9 (Loraine’s POV)

Can I tell you a secret? Sure, I was dressed casually but I still made those extra finishing touches to my wardrobe picks with Andrew in mind.

He was kind enough to drive me home after I finished my shift and bring me back to the club where they told me the drama night would be happening. And no, no one has told me what drama night actually is. So now I was getting nervous and curious and pretty much restless. I was not good with surprises, and I just wanted to see finally with my own eyes what this drama night was supposed to be.

As we arrived at the club, I did not see anything out of the ordinary and it was slowly starting to get weirder and weirder. I mean what kind of drama night could it be if there or not many people in the club? And I have worked for a few weeks already and every other Thursday was nothing special, so what was so special about tonight?

But as soon as we entered the club, I realized what they were talking about. There was nothing speci

    Chapter 10 (Andrew’s POV)Throughout the dinner I was just watching everything around me, especially Loraine. How she was handing all the questions my friends were throwing her way, how she was acting and honestly, I was surprised to see after the first few minutes she managed to relax and have fun. That is until Malcolm asked her something. In a blink of an eye, she became as stiff as a board and all the color drained from her face. I could see they were talking about something that was upsetting Loraine, but their voices were too quiet for me to hear. Thankfully she managed to calm down after a few words from Malcolm and I could breathe again normally. Believe me, I was ready to strangle Malcolm if he kept upsetting my Loraine.Wait.When did she become my Loraine? Ah, never mind. She was mine, end of discussion, she just did not know it yet.The rest of our dinner and drinks date went on without anything unusual, what was weird though was when at the end of it, Malcolm stopped Lora

    Chapter 11 (Loraine’s POV)He was kissing me. Andrew was actually kissing me. And the worst part? I liked it. A lot. And o did not want to move away from him, but I knew I could not allow myself any kind of physical connection or even worse an emotional connection. Which was kind of too late by now anyways, because as nice and kind as Andrew was to me, I was slowly falling for the man. He was a fair man, did not give a fuck about my past and he decided to help me out and do not forget that he was not hard to look at.But I knew the past would come knocking on my door sooner or later so I should most definitely not allow myself to fall for this man. No way. I should keep a safe distance between us.But damn it. He was kissing me. And the kiss was slow and gentle but passionate at the same time. Before I could even realize what, I was doing I was already holding him by the nape of his neck and pulling him closer to me. And suddenly a moan could be heard coming for somewhere. What the he

    Chapter 12 (Andrew’s POV)The way she was grabbing my hair while she came would many describe as painful, but I guess I am kind of a masochist in that department, because to me it was pure pleasure. Her moans, her screams just kept pushing me to get even more from her. I was a greedy bastard.She gave me one orgasm already, but I wanted more, and since we were still standing right at the door to her room and her legs were shaking, probably from the pleasure she just received, I decided to lift her into my arms and carry her to the bed where we can continue for part two, part three and so one, you catch the drift.The way she was holding on to me was as if she never wanted to let me go and I could only wish that it was true because sure as hell I was not ready to let her go and I was starting to think I might never be ready. Since the day she walked into my office all I could think about was her and now that I had a taste, I could not step back or let her run away, but tonight we will

  • The queen of icy heart   What did I get myself into?

    Chapter 13 (Loraine’s POV)Can I just say one thing? Last night was as exhausting as it was pleasurable. I can actually feel every muscle when I walk and every single one of them hurts as hell, but every time I feel the pain it reminds me of Andrew, and I need to be honest with myself when I say that a smile spreads across my face every time that I think about him. So, I am smiling all day already practically. Everyone is looking at me like I grew a second head, probably because I am the most serious person in the whole club usually. Even the security guys are less intimidating with their resting bitches faces.But I do not want to share what we have with Andrew with anyone. First of all, I want to keep it to myself and second, I am not really sure what we have so even if I wanted to tell anyone I would have no idea what to say. We are most definitely not a couple, but are we friends with benefits? Or was it just a one-time thing? I have no idea and is driving me crazy a bit, because

    Chapter 14 (Andrew’s POV)Seriously, I need to start googling what are the symptoms of unhealthy obsession with someone because as weird as it might sound, or maybe not, I am starting to think only about Loraine. Wait. It has been like that since the day I met her. Oh well, then I should correct myself and say that I am getting even more obsessed with her.I guess I need to review back a few hours so you can understand me better.So, my morning was like any other. But today I woke up next to Loraine, just like I did every morning for the past few weeks. Weirdly she still stuck to her description of our relationship as just friends with benefits arrangement and I kept telling her she was mine in every way possible and I am not letting her go. But the other night she slipped when I told her those same words for the billionth time. She said or pretty much mumbled it under her breath, “Yeah. Sure. Heard those words. Look where believing them got me.” Until that moment I forgot about my pr

    Chapter 15 (Loraine’s POV)Everything was going great. I was happy in my working place, building new friendships, having fun with Anabelle and Mandy, nights were spent with little to no sleep, but I was not going to complain about it, since I was getting the better part of the deal in those sleepless nights.But something seemed to be off with Andrew these past few days and I could not put my finger to it. I also could not just walk up to him and ask him what the problem was since I was not even sure there indeed was a problem. What if I was just getting a bit paranoid since it has been more than a month already from my last location change?But never mind, I can deal with that later. Today I was trying to muster up the courage I needed to apply for the position of security guard. I knew I was strong and fast enough but the fact that it was known to be a man’s job kind of slowed down my determination.But this time I promised myself to go for what I truly wanted for the first time.

I was hiding things from my friends and from Loraine. The other day I wanted to tell everything to my former teammates and my friends, but she walked into my office just when I was about to start talking so I told myself it must be the universes way of telling me to shut my fucking mouth. And so, I did. The only person beside me that knew about her past and her ex-husband was Malcolm who gave me the papers and I knew that man would carry many of his secrets into his grave and this one would sure be one of them.But as the days went by, I was getting more and more skittish and nervous. I have no idea as to why actually, all I knew was that I was hiding something from Loraine, and it was eating me up inside. And yes, I did think about confessing everything to her, but every time I wanted to tell her either somethin

    Chapter 17 (Loraine’s POV)A day out with girls sounded just like what I needed right now.As it was, I was constantly on edge, looking over my shoulder and was getting more and more anxious with every passing day and one day with girls spent shopping probably eating in a nice restaurant, playing dress up and pretty much enjoying sounded fantastic. It also meant that my past would not be able to catch up with me because I was not alone. I was completely lost in my thoughts about a day spent with no fear in mind and no problems bugging me, simply being a normal female in her late twenties, having fun while shopping with her friends. But suddenly something occurred to me, “Andrew! What about our training? I need to be as ready as possible next week!” I knew my panic that could be heard in my voice was kind of a sign of overreacting, but I really needed to prove to myself I can do this and to know I could achieve it on my own would be an even better achievement.Andrew wrapped his hands

    Chapter 27 (Loraine’s POV) epilogue Some years later… “Andrew! The girls will be here any minute, could you get Samuel ready for me please?” Before you make any assumptions let us make something clear. Samuel is our son, and he is three years old. As weird and unthinkable as it might sound, all girls gave birth to a child in the same year. Sure, there were differences, Valentina and Nathaniel had three kids. The first one was a little girl named Daisy, who was not so little anymore since she was nine years old already. Second was a boy named Gareth, he was six years old and the last was Penelope who was three years old as well as our Samuel. Then there was Anabelle and Seth. They had two kids, twins to be exact. A boy and a girl, Samantha, and Sam, they were three years old as well. If we move forward, we have Anastasia and Benjamin, they had just one kid the same as me and Andrew, and the little three years old princesses’ name was Lory. The next in line would be Malcolm and Mandy

    Chapter 26 (Andrew’s POV)We were on our way to the airport and of course, with Malcolm in the car we were driving over the speed limit and if a police officer pulled us over there would be hell to pay once he realized who the driver was, but mostly no one dared stop Malcolm, even the new guys knew his car and just waved when he passed. But in my opinion, we were still not driving fast enough. I wanted to be at the airport already, deal with the bastard and wrap my Loraine in my arms where I knew I could keep her safe.But as much as I wanted to yell and rant and be a smart ass, I knew I was thinking irrationally so I rather just sat back and kept my mouth shut. That and the fact that Malcolm threatened to throw me out of the car if I dared be loud.Thankfully we arrived at the airport just when my patience was running low. But as we stopped the car, I could not believe my eyes. There was a plane, ready to take off at any moment, but the stairs were still pulled out and firmly on the

    Chapter 25 (Loraine’s POV)Either these people were stupid, or they just assumed I knew London so well that I did not need to have my eyes covered while we were driving to the airport. Or maybe it was just the fact that they were so sure I would not be going anywhere except board the plane to Washington.Too bad for them because I had every intention to run away as fast as my legs could carry me, especially now that I knew two of six guys were on my side. Two of those guys that were not on my side are going into the plane’s cabin to make sure everything is set up and two will be completely oblivious to my attempt thanks to my accomplices. I still had no idea what their moto was, but I was not about to ask them since I was just happy to have someone willing to help me get away without a need to kill someone.You see all my self defense classes and so on that I was taking while on the run were in case, I found some place I want to stay and not run anymore, but before London there was no

  • The queen of icy heart   who took Loraine?

    Chapter 24 (Andrew’s POV)“WHAT DO YOU MEAN SHE IS FUCKING GONE?! YOU STUPID BUNCH OF IMBECILS! HOW COULD YOU LET HER SLIP OUT OF THE CLUB WITHOUT ANY OF YOU NOTICING!?” As you can see, saying I was pissed would be a huge understatement, because I was livid! Somehow, while we were celebrating our win in the office with Malcolm and the girls, and a few minutes later with their boyfriends as well, Loraine managed to slip out of the club and disappeared into thin air.If you would tell me a week ago, she disappeared I would probably believe she ran away like she did every time in the past eight years when something or someone got too close to her and her heart, but today I was sure she did not run away. She promised me that she would not run away, and she would stay with me for as long as I wanted her and on the other hand, the fact that Rodriguez was just leaving my club when Loraine mysteriously disappeared just did not stop nagging me. So, I had my suspicion that he had something to d

    Chapter 23 (Loraine’s POV)Today was the first time in my whole life that I remember standing up to myself for as long as I can remember. Not once when I was married was, I willing to do so. I just swallowed everything that was thrown my way. I never yelled at the man or talked back, I never told him my opinion, never objected to his decisions about my life, nothing.And the feeling was kind of refreshing and new. It felt amazing.Now, you see I stopped smoking years ago, it was bad for my health and all that and honestly it was just an expensive habit. But at this moment I felt like I was on top of the world and decided to treat myself to one cigarette you could say for old times’ sake, so I can finally close the door on every bad decision I made in the past.I was at the back entrance when I heard steps approaching but I thought it was sure one of the girls or maybe Andrew, so I stayed put and did not even turn around to see who it was, a big mistake.Next thing I know someone was h

    Chapter 22 (Andrew’s POV)The thought of pinching myself and seeing if I was even awake crossed my mind, but nothing felt as good even in dreams as Loraine felt in my arms. She said it. Those fears I had for the past few weeks since I realized I fell for this woman melted away like ice cream on a hot sunny day.Now the only thing left was for us to deal with Rodriguez once and for all. But that was not mine decision, I stopped kissing her and moved a bit away but still kept our foreheads pressed close together, “Are you ready to deal with the demons of the past?”She gave me a nod which was a bit hesitant, but honestly if I was in her shoes and had to deal with someone like Rodriguez, I would be hesitant as well. I took one of her hands in mine and gave her a squeeze to show her that she was not alone.As we rounded the corner, I could not help it but look around and once again it surprised me how self-assured the man really was. He took only five men with him and all of them were in

  • The queen of icy heart   explanation

    Chapter 21 (Loraine’s POV)How could he do that? If I had to guess, from what I saw in the office I would say Andrew knew about my past and he knew it well. So first of all, he was hiding the fact that he knows about everything from me, or maybe I can find an excuse for him and say he just found out, but I doubt that since he has been a bit weird for the past few weeks and especially today. But I am willing to tell myself anything to feel a bit better, and right now I needed to believe Andrew did not betray me like everyone else in my life did.At the moment I was sitting by the river that was right next to the club, and yes, I know I did not go far from everything, but it was far enough that Rodriguez would not think I came here, he probably thought that I ran away already like I always do when he finds me, but this time was different. I had friends, I had a job that I liked, and I hope they cared for me as well. I had a good life, and I was actually looking forward to the future. I

    Chapter 20 (Andrew’s POV)The moment Loraine barged into my office I knew something was going to go awfully wrong and as usual I was proven right when the asshole opened his mouth.Thankfully me and Malcolm seem to be on the same page because when Loraine ran out of my office as if she was on fire, we both jumped to our feet, but since I was in my usual seat and Malcolm was right next to Rodriguez, he was the one that landed a solid punch to his face and probably broke his nose in the process judging by the crunching sound that could be heard, “You idiot! You just broke my nose! What in the ever-loving hell is wrong with you? Do you have any idea who you are dealing with? I can have you erased from the surface of the earth in a moment!” technically, if we were not who we are, he would be right, but since we were one of the strongest mafia organizations in the world, well, sadly for him, he was wrong. Sure, we were operating on legal grounds, but that was actually a plus on our side, b

    Chapter 19 (Loraine’s POV) Something did not feel right. I could not put my finger on it, but my gut was telling me to go back to the club. Why? I had no idea but the opportunity to do so presented itself when Mandy asked me to put the car keys into my purse, because I was the only one that remembered to take a big enough purse to put in my wallet, phone and all the girly necessities but still had some space to put in the keys as well. Now I just had to come up with a plan to get away from them with a believable excuse, ran to the parking lot and drive back to the club so this awful feeling would go away. Even if I drove for nothing, I would still feel better if I followed my instincts and honestly, I doubted my gut was warning me for nothing. I know to some people it might sound stupid to follow your gut or your instincts, but those two things saved me more than once in the past years while I was being on the run. So, there was no way I would ignore it. As we walked around the sho
