chapter 21

Elijah Smith...I listened to the marketing team's leader present the new marketing ideas without actually understanding what he was saying.My presence might be heavy in the room but my mind was elsewhere.I was constantly thinking about the recent conversations I've had with Dante and Cane.Harvey, Dante's close guard, reported that the Vipers were moving in to the city quickly than we had expected, and their advances have been quite bold.A few days ago, I got an angry call from Dante and he told me that the new toys we were bringing in were hijacked by our rivals and not a single weapon made it in to our hands.This has happened a long time ago. But during that time, we were tricked by someone within our circle as our transported goods were widely known by many.But now, only a number of people know about the exact date the shipments would come in. Only Dante, Harvey, Cane and myself knew about the exact date. The rest of the group would know once the good have arrived, wh

chapter 22

I stomped in to my study and threw the scarf I had in my hand in to the trash.I ignored Cane's and Dalinda's eyes and walked over to my desk before I dropped myself in my chair.Anger was still boiling at the pit of my stomach.Cane and Dalinda shared a look before they shifted their eyes back to me."What happened?" Dalinda asked.I leaned back in to my seat and balled my hands."She won't say." I replied."I don't think we should just jump in to conclusions. Maybe Ella run in to Kevin at the park." Dalinda offered."What was she even doing there?" I asked."The park isn't that far away from the Williamson's Mansion. Maybe she went to visit her family..." Cane suggested before he let out a sigh."I haven't been paying attention to her to the point that she just walk out. What if something bad happened to her?" Dalinda sighed this time.She's not a child, I couldn't understand how the two looked worried about her.I opened the mirrored phone and looked through it incase I find anythi

chapter 23

Ella Williamson...I startled awake in bed and glanced at my phone to see the time. It was close to seven.I noticed a few text message notification on my phone and I slowly sat up.I rubbed my eyes with the ball of my hands before I picked up the phone again and looked at it with tired eyes.All of the texts were of course from Elizabeth.She had promised that she would have the paintings that I'd saved sent to this house, but apparently there was a delay and she promised to send it tomorrow.She also apologized multiple times and explained that she had no idea that our mother would throw my canvases away.I believed her.Seeing as it was night time, I decided to text her back tomorrow and placed my phone back on the nightstand.I glanced beside me and saw that the bed was empty.My eyes then moved to the window. I couldn't believe it was already night time.Earlier after Elijah ripped the scarf Detective Kevin gave me from around my neck and stormed off, I was alone for about t

chapter 24

My soul nearly left my body when I heard Elijah groan. I closed my eyes to block the few of the blade stabbing Elijah.My breath was coming out in a short huff as I slowly opened my eyes again.It took my eyes a few second to adjust to the dark again, and what I saw shocked me.Elijah had managed to stop the knife from going in to his face with his right hand. The knife did go through his hand, forcing another grunt out of him, but he quickly gained his momentum.He struck the intruder with his left hand so hard that the other man nearly fell off of him. Using the opportunity, Elijah grabbed the man by the hair and pulled his head down. He locked the other man's head under his left arm and held him in a guillotine chock hold.The other man immediately started pulling away from Elijah, but he wrapped his legs around the intruders waist and kept the man in place.The intruder struggled for a few more seconds before his movement started getting slower and slower until he finally stopped

chapter 25

Elijah Smith...I looked down at the bloody footprints left on the stairs with a frown. Shining my phone flash light at it, I examined the prints. They were too small to be mine and Dalinda's.I worked my jaw as I remembered how I'd left Ella in the dark hall after I'd told her to go to my bedroom.Could she have stupidly followed me? And if she had, then how did I not notice her?A groan brought my attention to the basement and I made a mental note to have a conversation with Ella before I turned the fash light of my phone off before I shoved it in to my pocket and walked back in to the basement.The man was slowly starting to wake up, which was good, because I wanted to finish this as soon as possible.I walked over to the long table with weapons lined up on it and picked up a red towel.My right hand was heavily bleeding but with how I was able to still move it, I figured the blade didn't do much damage.I wrapped the towel around my right hand and glanced at the man. I picke

chapter 26

I woke up with a massive headache pounding at my head. I touched my forehead with my right hand palm after I sat up in bed. The events of the previous night slowly entered my head and I dropped my hand before I glanced at the space next to me.I was relieved when I saw that Elijah was not there. Last night, after I let the water run and washed Elijah's blood off of my feet, I'd returned to bed hoping I would pass out and every thing than happened would be in my nightmare.But of course, it wasn't.I could still remember the feeling of Elijah's blood on my feet. I could still remember the dark figure of the intruder sneaking around the hall.I could remember the short but horrifying struggle between Elijah and the other man.I could remember the injury Elijah got during the struggle.But most of all, I could also remember how Elijah's arms had protectively wrapped around me to keep me safe.How stranger?You would think that I would linger on the fact that I saw Elijah dragging an u

chapter 27

Elijah Smith...I stood in the walk in closet, struggling to tie my tie.Doctor Morgan came last night to check my wounds. Just like I'd suspected, there wasn't a heavy damage done to my right hand and my face. But that didn't mean it wouldn't give me a hard time until it heals.Doctor Morgan had to give me some stitches for the wound in the right side of my head.As for the hand, Doctor Morgan advices me not to use my right hand much, but of course I didn't listen.Cane was not happy with the little surprise I'd left for him in the basement while he was out chasing information about his twin brother's whereabouts.Cane didn't want to clean up my mess after staying up almost the entire night, so I had to help him clean the basement up, which made the pain in my right hand a lot worse.If I am being completely honest, I didn't want to go to the dinner party. It was the last thing I wanted to do.But I knew I couldn't miss out, especially not when Dante is throwing the party to try

chapter 28

The ride to the Vila Dante rented was exhausting. I made sure to keep my eyes to myself the entire ride, not glancing towards my wife even once.I didn't like how I almost reached out for her multiple time through out the ride.Cane, who I should never let drive again, sped through the dark roads as if there were cops chasing after us.Nonetheless, we got there in time as the rest of the people invited to join the party came.I stepped out of the car and waited for Ella the hop out before I offered her my arm.The only reason I offered her my arm was because we needed to show a strong and untied front so others wouldn't try to attack me through her, it was not because I wanted her to be close to me... Or at least it was what I told myself.I kept my expression still as Ella slowly slid her hand through my left arm.Cane drove off to park the car and wait for us near by, while the two of us made out way inside.The second we walked in, I could feel eyes on us.The sudden marriage betwe

chapter 29

Ella Williamson...Elijah's hand felt warm. I wanted to be uncomfortable with his touch, but I couldn't.Even though I was very upset that Elijah forbade me from going after my sister, I slightly liked the fact that he didn't let go of my hand.I didn't know why I was having this sort of reaction to him, so I chocked it up to wanting to feel safe.Compared to the people who were constantly staring our way, I preferred to hide behind Elijah.Stepping closer to him provided some coverage from half of the room.Elijah's shoulders tensed, making me glance up at him to see if something was wrong,Elijah was looking forward with his jaw clenched and his eyes spitting fire. I following his gaze only to see Detective Kevin and another man walking in through the front door.The second they stepped in to the room, the entire atmosphere changed. The conversations that were blossoming amongst the people died as eyes turned to the two men.Detective Kevin and the other man looked completely una

chapter 30

Elijah Smith...I stood a few steps away from Dante and the two detectives, watching them as a hawk.Dante trusts me with his safety just as I trust him with mine. Even though the detectives might not do anything, it would be nice of me to have his back.It would be even more wonderful if I could join the conversation Dante was entertaining with Piglet number one and Piglet number two, but I was too concentrated on the earbud I had in my left ear.I tapped my right feet with annoyance.Did Ella actually think I wouldn't notice her not following me?The woman might be scared of me, but that doesn't mean she wouldn't risk it once in a while to do what she really wanted to do.She had done it twice before, once when we were at the Williamson's Mansion for the engagement party, and once when she quite literally snuck out of the house all on her own.I wanted to turn around and startle the life out of her, but I also wanted to know where her destination would be.Just as I expected, th
