All Chapters of Chasing Anna: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Anna Harris My head can't stop spinning since I read the folder, I read it multiple times to make sure that my eyes aren't hallucinating, it was there in black, every single detail, from my father's teenge when he got himself involved in the minor activities of mafia to plotting major trading of illegal goods out of the country, his gang is also under the radar of FBI in some kidnapping cases or murders.I shut the file and throw it in some corner of the library. I don't care how Hunter would react on this. Hot tears again brimmed my eyes. All these years, he lived dual life, a caring father who comes home to spend the evening with his family, a businessman who thrived his father's small company to a large scale corporation but in the reality, he retired home with dirt and blood on his hands. He earned the money from bad ways, perhaps by torturing others. He raised us with that money. Suddenly, my desperation to get my father out of the prison disappears in the thin air. If he's actu

Hunter Storm "Don't you think this ring looks...it looks similar to Princess Su Xiang's engagement ring?" Valentina inspects her ring from every possible angle like her eyes aren some kind of microscope or any related equipment to find minor details."Who is this Princess Yaku-" I forget the name but whatever she said, it sounds unnecessarily bragged."You don't know who she is?" She blinks her brown eyes a couple of times like I spoke some alien language."No, I have no idea. You can ask me anything about guns, greatest robberies in history or legend mafias but not something like this." I make it very clear to her, if she's really thinking to show me off at her stupid women's events, then I am out of her reach."I should have predicted it earlier,"She rolls her eyes," Anyways, I can live with this average ring but our wedding rings must be extraordinary. We're buying another set when we renew our vows on our first wedding anniversary. " She scrunch her brows, the disappointment of n

Hunter Storm It's 4:40 A.M. currently. I couldn't sleep throughout the night thinking about the certain pale blue eyed girl. I walk out of the suite's master bedroom and slam the door shut not caring if it would wake the witch from her beauty sleep. I quickly move down the living room, buttoning up my shirt. I run my hand through my hairs, I don't know if I button up it properly as I feel a sudden need to reach my house.I never bothered going back to that cold place before but now, I have found a reason to consider those four walls as a home. I send a quick text to Blake, informing him to drop Valentina safely at her place once the queen wakes up.He'd pester me to come along with me but I can't overburden the man who practically spend eighteen hours in a day working for me. He too need some rest and a little fun in his life.The sky is still dark as I step out of the hotel. Sending a brief text to Valentina giving her an excuse for work, I quickly make my way to my car and drive t

Hunter StormThe heavy silence in the air where no one speaks a word, only the sound of forks and knives clicking against the china plate can be heard. I focus my solo attention on the boiled sprouted vegetables on my own plate like they are the most adorable thing in the world.It's better than involving in an unwanted conversation with two women sitting on my opposite side, shooting their penetrating glances on me time to time. I am enjoying this thick silence than initiating a world war over the dining table."Mrs. Storm, with your permission, shall we invite the wedding planner here?" Mrs. Barnes finally cut the silence.The clanking stops suddenly and it's my cue to watch my grandmother's reaction. This woman has multiple shades of her personality, tender to touch, compassionate to fierce, gentle to ruthless, it depends on the person who dares to cross her path. Even the mighty Nathaniel Storm hesitates to use his power in front of her.And today she's my knight in shining armour

Anna Harris "So, Anna, are we friends now?" Brandon, Rochelle's brother asks me with his charming playful smile."Aren't we already friends?" I ask him in the same playful tone."C'mon Brand, you can't stop hitting on her. How does this friendship idea pop in your mind when all you are planning on to take her in your room and-" Before she can complete the sentence, I clamp my palm on her mouth.I want the earth to swallow me alive. Mrs. Storm is right, this woman surely need to filter her manners, not for her married life but also for the others who aren't comfortable with such boldness."I really want to be more than friends with her but I see she's out of my league, so I am settled on friendship." He answers his sister but his gaze is stuck on me."I would really like to be friends with you, Brandon. You're the first guy who doesn't want to get into my pants." I smile at him.A grin breaks on his handsome face, showing his dimples. He raise his beer can to toss for our new friendsh
