All Chapters of Claws of Stone: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Rebecca’s storyEverything was ready for today’s barbecue, right down to my mood. I quickly got over who Olivia was. But I really couldn’t give myself away with so many people there. My undercover mission wasn’t over yet. And because Olivia was in charge of the London branch, she knew about my mission.Now all I had to do was keep it cool. However, I was sure it would be a light day. “They’re here, Dominic! I’ll go greet them,” I said excitedly, heading for the door. I unlocked it and invited them in. “Welcome,” and my eyes met Olivia’s again. I flashed her a wide smile, which I then showed to everyone. “We’re so glad to be here,” Emily replied, holding out her hand first to me and then to Dominic. One at a time, everyone walked past us all and settled comfortably on the terrace. It was a pleasure to have them in our home, especially knowing what tied me to them. “Make yourselves comfortable. I’ll go get some lemonade. In this heat, I suppose it’s perfect. Emily, will you help me?”

Rebecca’s storyI found his voice colder than ice. He could barely contain the urge to punch the man standing so near to me. His blood was boiling in his veins and his stare had turned so evil that I was trying to make eye contact with him to calm him down. At the same time, he might wonder what the hell I was doing with Logan in this part of the hotel, so isolated? I could almost hear these thoughts screaming in his mind. “What the hell are you doing here with her?” He asked, not even noticing that he had raised his voice at me.“I don’t think that’s any of your business, actor!” Logan shot back, and contrary to what I was expecting from doing, Dominic rushed forward with his fist straight into Logan’s jaw. “Dominic, stop!” I shouted, trying to stop him from hitting Logan a second time. Somehow, I placed my frail body between the two of them. And although I expected the fight to continue, Dominic hardly held back. Especially since I knew what a beast was inside him. “Let’s go! Let’

Dominic’s storyThe hours have passed with difficulty and just thinking about the way I marked Rebecca made my stomach turn. My reaction towards her was out of the ordinary. If only I could turn back time...“Come on, man, the party’s starting. We have to go. You’re the guest of honor. You can’t miss it,” Declan told me, poking his head through the door. “I’m hurrying as fast as I can. If you only knew how much I want this night to be over...” I said, running my hand through my hair, then looking at it, I felt my blood boil. The same hand that I marked Rebecca with.“Look, I know you may not be in the mood any longer, but somehow you have to pull yourself together. I guarantee it’ll pass quickly and you’ll be home soon. You’ll have plenty of time to sort things out with Rebecca. By the way, she’s also invited, I presume.” “Yes, she is, but I’m doubting she’ll even show up,” I replied with regret, gently kicking the mirror table. “Let’s go!” I urged as I rushed towards the exit. I d

Rebecca’s storyThe time during which I was unconscious was a mystery to me. Suddenly, my surroundings were engulfed in pitch black darkness, immediately following a sharp blow that I felt on the back of my head. I was currently being held captive, unable to see because of a blindfold, and my whereabouts, unknown to me, but I was confident that God was aware of my circumstances. The captors had me bound with my hands tied behind my back and also secured to a chair, rendering me immobile. As I struggled to release myself from the rope, the rough texture had caused pain and discomfort to my hands and feet.All I could remember was Dominic’s party premiere and the huge, senseless fight I had with him. The questions he asked me and the way he looked at me in pain got me into this mess. I needed to stay focused and alert so I could find out who my captor was. Because one thing I knew for sure about this strange situation was that someone kidnapped me.As soon as the musty odor reached my

DOMINICAs I stood before the looming fortress that belonged to the notorious and ruthless Zack Burnet, I couldn’t help but feel a surge of invincibility coursing through my veins. The desolate landscape around me matched the emptiness inside my heart, and I knew I had come here alone for a reason. It wasn’t because I lacked allies or help in my mission to rescue Rebecca, the woman I loved. No, it was because I believed that Zack Burnet owed me a debt that only I could collect.In my teenage years, I had been engaged to Jane, but the actions of her father, Zack Burnet shattered our blissful future. He was a man consumed by power and darkness, and his reckless pursuits had cost me the life of my beloved Jane. It was a wound that festered deep within me, driving me to seek vengeance and justice. And now, as I gazed upon his forsaken fortress, I knew that the time for reckoning had come.The wind howled through the barren landscape, a haunting symphony that echoed my determination. With
