Chapter 81: GABRIEL

I think I might have been wrong about Lyon; he’s not crazy. In fact, I’m beginning to think he might be some sort of genius relationship guru, or maybe this was just a fluke. No, he knew; I’m almost certain of it. When he talked about results, I was sure he meant that she’d think twice before lying or disobeying me again, but I had no idea that this was part of what he meant. How could he have foreseen this happening unless he’d been through it himself? I wish he’d warned me ahead of time, though, so that I wouldn’t have suffered as much.I’m not ashamed to say that her punishment had made me suffer right along with her because the thought of her hurting or being upset seems to be something new I can’t deal with. There should be a handbook that comes along with relationships, or maybe these are things that everyone else knows, and I just haven’t been paying attention. If that’s the case, it’s a wonder anyone ever falls in love. The shit’s more trouble than it’s worth.Then again, if t

Chapter 82: LYON

“So, what do you think?”“What do I think about what?” Mancini’s spooky ass is always up to some shit.“Him!”“Didn’t you ask me that already?”“Yeah, but that was when we first got here; besides, I’m not talking about the job; I’m talking about that little test you just gave him.”“He’ll be fine; he’s no worse than the rest of you idiots. At least he lasted a full day, Tyler caves within an hour, and Connor and Logan are damn near a waste of time.”“We’re not all cold-hearted like you, Colt.”“That’s why your woman has your nuts in a sling.”“Why is it so important to you whether the squad members are good family men or not? Isn’t it enough that they’re good at what they do?”“Fuck no! You keep finding fuckwads for me to vet. At some point, they’re going to be around my wife and kids; what do you think? You can tell a lot about a man by the way he treats his woman and kids. Why would I want someone around my family that don’t know how to take care of his own?”“I guess you have a poin

Chapter 83: GABRIEL

“That information doesn’t leave this room. Silla doesn’t know yet.” In fact, I hadn’t even thought of it in some time, what with everything else that was going on. It just never seemed that important, beyond the point that it was probably the reason for Sam’s callous treatment of his kid.Besides, it wasn’t my place to reveal the truth to her, or it didn’t use to be. Now I think I’ll have to have a chat with Celine as soon as she gets home from the hospital. Silla has the right to know the truth. I’m sure she’d be pleased to know that the monster who’d terrorized her all her life wasn’t her blood, even though her biological dad had split before she was even born. At least, I hope so.“How do you know then if she doesn’t?” As usual, Lyon was the one asking the questions while the others waited for my answer.“Mace got it out of her mother when they first got here. As you know, that’s his specialty.”“Well, that puts a different spin on things. What happened to her father?”“According to

Chapter 84: SILLA

“You seem happy.” That’s the way Chantal greeted me when I walked into her room after leaving Gabriel. “Did you guys make up?” I was too excited to speak, but I’m sure the smile on my face answered her question. “Told you.” She seemed as excited as me, and I couldn’t wait to unload all that I was feeling to get her feedback.Since I’ve never been in love before, never even had a relationship of any sort, there was a lot I didn’t know. A week, even a few days ago, I was happy in the safe place we were in, Gabriel and I. There was no pressure; it was as if we were just two friends learning about each other.Though I felt a strong attraction between us, in my mind, anything physical was a long way off. I was just happy being close to him, seeing him every day, and just knowing he was there. Even though I slept next to him, and we’d even shared a kiss or two, somehow, I never imagined the next step.But now, I don’t know; after the last hour spent with him, I feel like things have changed

Chapter 85: GABRIEL

She only entered my mind five or six times the whole time we were outside, and as soon as we entered the gym, I remembered the way she’d looked that day when I’d walked in on her and the guys working out. Had that only been a few weeks ago? It felt like I’d known her for much longer.I paid attention to what the others were saying, of course, but thoughts of her remained present in my mind. I think that day was the first I’d ever felt jealous of anyone; that should’ve been my first warning, I guess. Even then, she was making me act outside of myself, making me feel things I never had before.I can’t wait to see where things go now that I am no longer holding back and no longer feel the need to. There’s so much I want to show her, so much I want to share with her. I can imagine her reaction the first time I take her to New York, to my home. Or the first time I take her for a ride on my bike. Speaking of which, I should probably see about getting my bike sent here since it looked like we

Chapter 86: GABRIEL

“We’ve got a problem. How would your kid know that we left the gym to come back up here?”“Why do you ask that?” Lyon sounded like he already had a pretty good guess.“Silla said your daughter warned her that we were on the way back up here, and that’s why they left in a hurry. I’m guessing that’s why they forgot to put back the board.”I almost felt sorry for Lyon when his head fell back against the chair while he mumbled a few choice words under his breath. Then his head whipped around lightning fast, and he fixed Mancini with a glare.“Mancini, you fuck, if I find out you had a hand in this, I’ll bury you headfirst beneath the sand when we get back on the island.”“I didn’t, not this time. They didn’t let me in on their little plan with Russo.”“Who forgot to leave their phone behind?” Lyon all but growled. All of his men shook their heads as he rubbed a finger across his brow in distress.“Crap, it could be this.” Connor pulled his chain from beneath his shirt and held out the lock

Chapter 87: SILLA

I’ve been to the bathroom twice in the last twenty minutes or so to empty my overactive bladder. I was so nervous about what was going to happen once Gabriel got back to the room that I couldn’t sit still, and it felt as if my tummy was about to fall to the floor at my feet. I am not looking forward to another day like the last one when he wasn’t talking to me.I tried justifying my actions to myself but came up short each time. He’d told me not to go in there, and I did. To him, it must seem like I have no regard for him or the things he says, but nothing could be further from the truth. It’s just circumstances that keep making me do these things, like going to the club when he told me not to. Hah, I’d forgotten about that one. Maybe that’s why he was such a bear this last time as well.I wanted to run to Chantal’s room but was afraid to leave the bedroom since he’d told me to stay put. Is he really going to make her leave? I hope he doesn’t yell at her or hurt her feelings. Chantal s

Chapter 88: GABRIEL

I stayed awake long into the night after she’d fallen asleep, listening to her breathe and the cute little sounds she made in her sleep, with my mind full of worry and concern for her. That seems to be the norm these days. There was nothing on the buyer in Calhoun’s files, and I’d left the face recognition machine running since we had yet to get a match to the composite to tell us who this strange man was. Fear for another person is new to me. This wasn’t your everyday worry but a deep-rooted fear and dread that something could happen to her. The feeling left me weak and angry at the same time, and since I have no experience with such things, it was keeping me awake.I’ve thought of every screwed-up scenario and imagined everything that could go wrong, but funnily enough, the thing that scares me most of all is the thought of what might’ve happened to her had I not come here. Where would she be now? What would she be going through now had I not been here to save her?These thoughts ke

Chapter 89: GABRIEL

By the time I made it back to bed, it wasn’t long before the sun was set to rise. I fed her lamb when she started to cry as soon as I walked into the room so that she didn’t wake Silla, then got ready for bed. I felt better about the progress we’d made after finding the number in Calhoun’s phone, so I was more relaxed as I made my way to the bed.I stood there looking down at her for a few minutes, taking in the sight of her wrapped around my pillow, her hair spread out across it, no doubt leaving her scent. She looked so tiny lying there, dwarfed by the size of the king-sized bed, that I felt a clutch in my chest.That kept happening more and more of late as well, that feeling like I’d been zapped whenever I thought of her or looked at her. Now looking at her with her face relaxed in sleep and her mouth closed so she couldn’t give me hell, her beauty and innocence more apparent, I realized the enormity of the situation.Without me knowing and without even so much as a warning, she’d w

Chapter 90: SILLA

Oh crap, what have I done? I stiffened up and held myself still, not daring to move lest he learned that I was awake. Would he believe me if I told him that I hadn’t meant to start this? That I’d woken up with my fingers moving against his chest all on their own?I should’ve stopped once I realized what I was doing when I awoke, but I didn’t, and now I was caught. I didn’t dare lift up my head to look at him, but I knew he was awake from the change in his breathing. Why wasn’t he saying anything?There must be a hundred ways I could play this off, but I couldn’t think of one because all the blood had drained from my head and taken my thoughts along with it. Say something, for heaven’s sake, put me out of my misery. Or floor, please open up and suck me in.I’m never going to be able to face him again, never going to be able to look him in the eye without feeling embarrassed. I can’t imagine what he must be thinking. Please let this day end before it begins; let me have a do-over, and I’
