The next morning, by the time Kyle woke up, Serra was already awake. She took a quick shower before she started cooking breakfast for them. She was humming softly. She didn't bother to dry her hair. She was scrambling eggs when she felt two strong arms wrapped around her waist from behind. She turned to look at Kyle who rested his chin over her shoulder. "Morning" he mumbled. She smiled softly. With him around, she feels pleasant and as if she belongs somewhere. Unlike how she used to feel like unwanted and drifting everywhere, and doesn't belong anywhere. He makes her feel important. "Morning, I am almost done" she pointed at the eggs. Even though she cooks better than any five star chef, he doesn't want her to work. She should be pampered. "You have exams coming up. You should stop doing all the chores and study instead. I already hired someone to do all this for us" he informed her. Initially he brought her to his place out of instinct. But now as he is getting to know her,
Serra sat almost at the last table in her first class. There are two more unoccupied tables behind her. As she barely interacts with anyone, she prefers to sit at the back. She would have loved to make new friends, but mostly everyone who approached her is mostly more interested in Kyle than to become her friend. And she is reserved and skittish to begin with, so she could only make a couple of friends upon whom no one shares this particular class with her. A sweet nerdy girl named Abigail who loves strategic management as much as Serra does. They worked as partners in a debate, and became friends ever since. Another girl is Cynthia, who prefers to be called 'C'. She is bold and daring, while Serra is reserved and shy. Cynthia prefers to wear all black gothic outfits, which labelled her as a freak. But Serra never once thought that Cynthia was a freak. She is smart and outspoken. Once Serra helped the girl when she twisted her ankle. Ever since, Cynthia seems to like Serra. Apart
Serra tried her best to pull her zipper up, but to her horror, she realised that it failed. She doesn't know what to do. She couldn't possibly go out like this. Her hair might cover a portion of her back, but not completely. She became desperate as the minutes ticked by. She noticed students looking at her from outside the classroom, but no one came to help her. She took a deep breath and decided to ask for help. Her finger hovered over Kyle's number, contemplating if she should disturb him. "Serra?" she heard Cynthia's voice, which startled her. Serra lifted her head to look at 'C', but her gaze landed on Kyle who just entered the class room. An unspoken conversation passed between them. They formed a special kind of bond which doesn't need words to explain her distress to him. Just one look from her, he understood what she was feeling. Her chin wobbled as the emotions she tried so hard to push down and stay strong now threatened to trickle down her eyes. Cynthia turned to
After Robert's warning, Paul is thoroughly scared. The first thing he did after Robert left was to try and contact Serra. But as Serra's mobile was submerged in the pool at that party, Kyle gave her a new phone with a new number. So her old number is no longer in use. So Paul couldn't reach her. "What is going on with the Jenkins family. I gave my daughter to them and left her at their home. It's their mistake for allowing her to escape. Why are they coming after me for their mistake? And moreover, where did my coward and skittish daughter get the courage from to even think about running away from them. Now after they find her, which they definitely would, she would suffer" he thought with annoyance. He is not worried about his daughter's fate. He is only worried that now he had to search for her when he could have been drinking and gambling happily. Now that he couldn't reach her through the phone, he had to think about where she could have gone. So he started searching for he
"What the hell" she heard him mutter mostly to himself. A shiver ran down her spine. She is not looking at how cold his gaze turned, but she could feel it in his tone. It was deadly. It scared her to her soul. At that moment, she felt as if the Kyle she knows is nowhere and the Kyle behind her is a deadly stranger. Goosebumps appeared on her skin, showing how unsettled she felt. She felt the rough pads of his fingers dancing down her back, skirting the area which sting. This touch felt different. It made her feel as if it was clinical, like he is assessing the damage. "K...Kyle?" she whispered, unsure of what was happening behind her. The fear in her voice cannot be masked. And he didn't like it. He didn't like the fact that he was scaring her. He absolutely hated scaring his sweet Serra. "Hmmm" he hummed his reply, trying to suppress his anger. He saw a blue ink running down her spine, the same path as her zipper. It looked as if someone intentionally did this. And that realisat
"Making fun of you? Do you know how cute you look now? Like an angry little rabbit" he complimented her for the first time. She blushed at his words. But the sting on her neck didn't make her forgive him so easily, even though she is not at all angry with him anymore. "You bit me" she complained. He grinned at her complaint. Everything she is doing is so cute. And it's absolutely impossible not to feel amused. "Oh? I bit you? Where?" he inquired as if feigning innocence. She believed him and arched her neck before pointing at the spot where the skin is red now. He leaned down and kissed her booboo, making her bite her lip and smile softly. "There, happy?" he asked her. But he was not looking at her. He was looking at the mark he left on her neck. Deep down, he is feeling very satisfied to see his claim on her, like a neanderthal. She didn't reply, but nodded her head to say 'Yes'. Kyle absolutely did not forget about the mark behind her back. It's simmering at the back
"Ahh, I am so full" Serra slumped against the car seat after their scrumptious lunch. Kyle kept adding food to her plate despite her protests. He made her eat so much that she is literally feeling as if her stomach would burst out any moment now. "You need to gain some weight. And you should eat" was his reason. Kyle smiled at her. She looked sated. "Do you want to go to the beach?" he inquired. He noticed how excited she looked when they were going to the Floyd college. He wanted to show her everything that he could before they would go their separate ways. "Beach?" she looked excited to visit the beach. Growing up in a small town, she never got an opportunity to go anywhere outside that town. Coming to Chicago was her first courageous move, and even after coming here, she didn't see much. Kyle drove them to a private beach. He has his own bungalow there with access to the beach. He could have lived there instead of living near the Campus, but he couldn't risk blowing up his
By the time Kyle parked his car outside his home and carried a sleeping Serra out of his car, Sean was already waiting for him. "What do you want? Make it quick" Kyle demanded. He is still holding Serra in his arms, bridal style. Sean tried to find out Kyle's information, but he couldn't. No matter how much he Inquired, he couldn't even find out a single detail about Kyle. But then suddenly someone called and informed him and informed him when and where to Kyle. So he knows that if Kyle doesn't want to meet him, then Sean never had a chance to see Kyle. So it's not a surprise that Kyle seems to be expecting him. "I... I mean, my gang received a picture of a girl, who resembles so much like the girl in your arms. Someone is searching for her. They announced a lot of money for the person who could find her. I thought you should know" Sean immediately shared what he knows. He even showed Serra's picture which his gang received. Kyle looked at Serra's old picture, which looked as if
The Cult Lord is seen hanging by the window sill of the second floor window from where he jumped on to the first floor window using his rope. When the focus of the guards was fixed on searching Serra's room, he escaped from her room by jumping down the window the moment he heard the sound of the toy. But he refused to leave without Serra. 'Serra Anderson, if not today, i will come back soon. No matter what, I am not going back empty handed' he thought to himself. On the other hand, Serra looked pale. Someone intruded inside the mansion again, and specifically for her. "Another follower? Is he an employee here too? Last time it was a gardener. Who is it this time? One of the guards? Why won't they leave me alone? Why is he trying to ruin my fate like this" Serra broke down feeling bitter. Her eyes are Misty with unshed tears, and she looked angry as well. Tina rushed to her side immediately to comfort her. "Hey, no matter how much they try, let's not make this easy for them. Let
The Cult Lord ditched his black cloak in favour of a swim suit and a waterproof back pack. Inside the backpack are his supplies. Rope, chloroform, a gun and a knife. He is determined to take Serra Anderson with him today, no matter what. He knows that Kyle Carter is in Italy leaving his girlfriend and daughter unprotected. He was trying to find the exact location of Kyle's island for a while now. It is one of his new followers who gave him this exact location today. And the information about Kyle's plan to visit Italy. Cult Lord is paddling towards Kyle's island in a small black boat, which is small enough to go undetected in the water at this hour. As it was midnight, most of Kyle's men are not as vigilant as they should be. Moreover, the Cult Lord has the blue print of the Island which his follower sent him. He knows he will be detected no matter in whichever direction he tries to slip inside the island. But there is a place on the island from where he can easily enter and exit wit
"Eugene, Boss sent me to bring you to the Bianche mansion" Naim told Eugene in an even tone without giving away anything. Eugene frowned deeply. He looked at the men who accompanied Naim. Looking at them, he can gather that this is not a casual call for a general chat. This made him scared. "Ahh.." Eugene tried to laugh his nervousness, but it came out as awkward. 'Why does Kairo suddenly sent his men for me? Is he suspecting something? Even if he is, then it should be Leone whom he should be suspecting, why me?' he thought with fear. He is not aware where Leone was at that moment. And he doesn't want to go alone. "So suddenly? May I know what for?" he tried to inquire casually. But Naim maintained his cold gaze unwavered. "You would know once you meet the Boss" he replied evenly. Eugene is sweating profusely. He doesn't want to go. He is scared that he might not come back alive if he go now. "Can I take a shower? I can come on my own" he tried to bargain for some time un
"Please, don't kill me. I will tell you everything" the follower named Flint Davis spoke hastily. Sean looked at him with a sneer. "Just a few bruises and you are ready to rat about your Lord? Some follower you are" he muttered with displeasure. In the Mafia world, loyalty is everything. As long as you are loyal, your boss and the outfit you work for will protect you. If they don't, then they will take care of your family. But the Cult followers are so flimsy and weak, that they cannot face any hardships. The Cult is an organisation which attracted men because of the perks it was offering. As it was invisible for so long, the Cult followers enjoyed the privileges of the Cult. Now that the Cult is exposed and is facing so much back lash, the followers are no longer loyal to the cult, but to themselves. Flint looked down at his bloody feet. He is a coward who can only use his physical strength on weak women. But now that he is facing men his size and more power, he is unable to st
"Leone?" Eugene said with a confused frown. Leone was smiling from ear to ear, which was the last thing he was expecting from the other man. 'Did he lose his mind?' Eugene was wondering when Leone started to laugh loudly. It was the laughter filled with happiness and surprise. Eugene's eye balls bulged out of their sockets for the second time in the last twenty four hours because of the same man. "Leone? Looks like you didn't understand what I just told you" he said hesitantly. For the first time Leone is scaring him. Until last night his other personality scared him, now it looks like it's Leone's turn. Leone shook his head while still laughing. "I understood what you just said. I was taken aback by my unexpected luck. Who would think that my misfortune would turn into my fortune one day? Eugene, this is the best news i have heard in these past few years" Leone replied happily. Eugene was looking at Leone with stunned silence. His mouth is agape with shock. "What? Best news? F
Serra looked at Kyle who is cool and is least bothered about the fiasco regarding the image of Kyle Carter. While she on the other hand is liking it one bit. "Is it not bothering you?" she asked him. He smiled at her query. He knows what she is asking about. "Why should it? What they are saying is true. I am not a good man and I never wanted to prove to anyone otherwise. So let them talk whatever they want. I don't care about other people's opinions" he replied Camly. But she couldn't let it go. She saw so many people in her life who are more like monsters. Her father for example. He sold her to the Cult for his selfish reasons. But no one knows how bad he is. Robert, who ruined the lives of countless women, yet most of them thought that he was a gentleman. And the Cult followers, they are hiding behind their cloaks, hiding how dark their soul is. Compared to this, Kyle is much better. At least he is not hiding behind the mask of a good man. He never hid his true self with the in
In Italy, The Cult is seen celebrating the ruining of Kyle Carter. He is seen drinking and indulging in women in the Negi residency, while Eugene looked out of place and worried. He doesn't want to stay there, at the same time he doesn't want to leave the Cult Lord alone either. He is worried about what the Cult Lord would do next which might result in the Negi's family downfall. 'I underestimated Leone's other personality. Should I consult a doctor for this? If he is left untreated, i don't want to imagine the consequences if everyone finds out that Leone is the Cult Lord. Who would believe that Leone is innocent and it's other personality which is doing all this?' Eugene decided to hire a Psychologist to treat Leone and suppress the Cult Lord forever. With that thought in mind, he started to search for the contact of the Psychologist who treated Leone the first time. What anyone of them noticed was that, Kairo's men were keeping an eye on the Negi residency. And they saw how Le
"Kyle Carter is 'The boss'" This news started spreading all over the internet like a wild fire. As Kyle is a very prominent figure in the football World, the news received too much attention. More attention than the anonymous poster was planning for. The news was posted in the early morning hours, and it received a hundred million views by morning. Everyone was talking about the same, more importantly, the Football fans and the football community. 'What? Kyle Carter is the Boss?' 'This must be fake news' 'Who is spreading false news against our legendary football star?' 'Find the person who is trying to defame our Kyle' 'How is this even possible? Our Kyle cannot be the boss' 'I heard 'the boss' is ruthless and cruel' 'The Boss is said to be from the Mafia' 'Oh dear, is Kyle Carter really a mafia man?' Speculations started to spread rapidly. Everyone was stunned to see this news. They cannot believe that Kyle Carter who is considered a football god is actually a mafia man.
"I am so sorry. I thought I was protecting you" she confessed. She really thought she was protecting him by staying away from him. After she heard the horrific details of the Cult from Robert, she was left shaken. But Kyle's kidnapping was what forced her to leave him for his own safety. He ran his palm up and down her bare spine, thinking how sweet and funny it is that she was trying to protect him. But in the end they both suffered because of that one decision. "I know you had good intentions behind your decision. But Serra, please don't do this again. I might be a boss to everyone, but to you, I am your love slave. I will not survive if you leave me again" he shared the truth. Most men might feel that it's beneath them to admit that they are a slave to their lover, but he felt proud admitting that to Serra. His confession made her eyes tear up with emotions. She lifted her head from his chest and looked at him with so much love, that he could see it shining brightly like a sun
