Chapter Eighty-One: Harsh realities

Chapter 81Henry Maverick POV“Sir, your daughter is here to see you.” my secretary announced, I was currently reviewing a set of files. My brows furrowed and I told her to let her in. It's been weeks since I've seen Eden, weeks since she came to me for help, the contract with Percy was the only thing keeping her. Why then was she here to see me?The door opened and she walked in, it was difficult to stay calm when she looked liked her mother. It was difficult for me to keep a straight face and talk to her without having to bear the guilt. Her soft eyes caught with mine from where she stood and with the way her lips were in a thin line I knew she was here for something. “To what do I owe this meeting.” I said leaning back in the chair, my hands rested on the side of the chair as she remained standing. “I can't remember sending for you.” “Thats because you didn't. I'm here to speak to you about something.” she replied calmly. I've known Eden to be fierce and sharp mouthed, just lik

Chapter Eighty-Two: prove him wrong

Chapter 82Percy povWhen I saw the text from Henry Maverick it didn't take rocket science to know something was wrong, my phone began to ring in my hand and his name flashed across my screen.“What is the meaning of this? You're not supposed to fall in love with her or tell her,” Henry seethed through the speakers.“I'm not in love with her,” I answered. “Exactly what I mean Percy, you have Eden thinking you care about her when it's all a sham.” Henry stated. “It wasn't part of the agreement.”“I do care about her, with or without the contract.” I announced pacing around the room. “No, you don't Percy and it's going to stay that way. You're going to keep on hating her like you have from the very beginning, let her hate you again and be reminded that this isnt real.” he warned with a stern voice.“I'm afraid it's not possible.” I objected. “I can't do that to her, not like this.”There was a pause on his end but I could hear his heavy breathing.“So what? You're going to act like he

Chapter Eighty-Three: The calm before the storm

Chapter 83Eden povIt was difficult to hold back on the scream that spilled from my throat as his hips collided with mine, my fingers clawed at the skin on his back and his hot breath fanned my neck as he thrust deeper into me. “S**t.” He groaned into my neck. I had tried to imagine several times what it would be like to have him inside of me but never did I think that it’ll be like this. “You feel so good.” He groaned stretching me out. His warm body covered mine and his lips kissed my neck, marking me as he moved.My body tingled at the pleasure that washed through me, the intensity holding me in place as he grabbed my hips in his free hand. “Open your eyes E,” my eyes fluttered opened and I found him watching me closely, his pupils were far dilated and his hair draped across his head. I noticed that he had slowed down just to watch me. “Why did you stop?” I managed to ask and he smiled. “Just wanted to see your face, and I must say you look like a tomato.” He teased making m

She had tried to get me in the mood but it wasn't just working and right when I stepped outside to call Percy to come pick me up, my phone died.I stopped by the bathroom to the cleanAudrey was nowhere to be found and even if she was she was probably drunk and would stay with her sister anyways, I on the other hand, don't want to be here. “Shit-” I cursed as my phone went off again. “Talk about bad luck.” I stepped out just to see Stella, she was talking to someone on the phone and she was clearly upset.

Chapter Eighty-Six: Who we know

Chapter 86Eden povI am the price.“You are as naive as ever Eden, always hidden in the dark from what truly matters.” He teased releasing his grip from my chin, I took another step back but felt the huge presence behind me. “Let me go.” I said with shaky breath, I really wasn’t interested in all he had to do, I just wanted to get out of here, away from him. “Oh, I’m sure you don’t want to go, I have a very interesting story to tell you.” He said placing the glass on a sculpture stand.“I don’t want to hear it, I just want to go home.” Kevin’s brows narrowed in a deep frown, his eyes preyed on me and his hands raked through his hair.“You call that place home now, why because he f**k you good like the whore you are?” My hands crossed to hit his face but a hand from behind held me back and Kevin’s lips spread in a disturbing grin. “You want to hit me again, not a chance that would happen,” he looked over me, my hands aches from how tight they were held. “Besides I’ve still not ret

Chapter Eighty-Seven: A million pieces

Chapter 87Eden povListening to Kevin tell me all those things about Percy set me on the edge, the delight in his body composure and the way he smiled as he said all those horrible things left me on an edge.“It's all a lie,” I said in defence even when every part of me could feel a bit of truth. Percy had lied to me before but this was something else. He told me about his parents death but not with any details, and I had been caught up in my own world that I didn't bother asking him about it.“You can always ask him when you get back.” Kevin said with a loud drawl. “You would regret keeping me hostage like this, my father will also come looking for me.” I said hoping to spice some fear in him.“Oh- daddy's girl. I'm not sure your father is coming. I mean from that last fight you two had, he's beny one teaching you a lesson.” my brows furrowed and my gaze bored into his head. How did he know about put fight? Had he been following me? Even so, there was no way he'll know what was sai

Chapter Eighty-Eight: Heartbreak on a full moon

Chapter 88Eden povI remained there all night. I guess this was what hurt and love did to you. All of it washed over me as I sat on the cold floor both tramuatized by an abusive ex and hurt by the man I thought I loved. When the slight peak of dawn came, I had managed to put myself up and change out of my clothes, I packed the large portion into my box while I cleared out the closet. I couldn't stay here.“Eden.” there was a knock on my door and my heart thumped loudly in my chest. My hands paused and my eyes widened as the knock came again.“Eden- I know I messed up big time but please- open up I need to talk to you.” he pleaded.“Why? So that you can lie to me some more?” I snapped back zipping the bag shut, I stared down at my charging phone, it buzzed signifying that my driver was here. I wouldn't need to pack everything now, all that mattered was getting out of here.“No, no. Please, just-” I marched towards the door and swung the door open staring at Percy, he was still in his

Some part of me was tempted to ask after her but I didn't want to think of how it would end so I kept the question to myself.“Let's talk.” he
