All Chapters of Shadows of Deception : Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Okay. Well maybe it wasn't such a genius plan but it was just a thought. For now, all I had to do was get the folder, get away from everyone here, and then think of something.As all the men's attention were back on one another and they discussed their 'matters', I neared the tables with the drinks again and I placed the empty glasses on it. Quickly. I slipped the paper that was in the folder under the tray and took it up.Turning around casually, no one's attention seemed to be on me, that is until Sinister suddenly locked eyes with mine. Dear God. I hope he hadn't seen it. I was almost fully convinced that he had but he nonchalantly drifted them back to the others in the room. He didn't. Thank God.Trying my best not to be suspicious, i exited the room and hurriedly rushed back into his room. I carelessly placed the tray on the small table and scanned my eyes over the paper I took up. To my horror, my face was confirmed by what was on the paper. Nothing was even legal and everythin

Sinister blinked at me and just when I was expecting a shocked expression from him, he smiled."Go ahead Angel, shoot me."Damn him!"What?"He chuckled, "That is, if you know how to.""Oh shut up!" I snapped, annoyed."I can do that once you pull that trigger.""Did I not punch you hard enough Sinister?"Before he could have said another word, the sudden sound of someone clearing their throat brought us to attention."If you two are done here ?" Mikhail's cold voice iced through the air.Pushing himself up, Sinister snatched the gun away from me and stuck it back in his pants. Rubbing his chin casually, he walked up to Mikhail while I sat myself up on the ground. They spoke in a soft tone of voice laced with few Russian words within their sentences.That shit must be important.Mikhail, with a nod, seemed to agree to something Sinister had requested and left the room. He looked back at me sitting on the floor and raised his both eyebrows. In response, I wriggled mine and winked at h

"I don't believe this.""The guy's 28, he had to get married sooner or later.""B-but he's in the mafia!""Just because we're in doesn't make us no less human." Nadia stated harshly, yet she didn't look at me."I hadn't meant it like that, Nadia."Ignoring me, she looked towards Nik and scowled, "Meet me in the room, now!"With that, she walked away and Nikolai followed.I stood there in utter shock, everything suddenly felt like a dream. Walking back to the room, trying to channel my multiple emotions into one was the hardest thing to do. I slumped down on the sofa and replayed everything that happened between Sinister and me.I was unsure of what I was feeling. I wanted to murder him. He led me on. He kissed me! He kissed me even though he had a fiancée. Sinister played me and used me as if I was some sort of object. That's all he knew to do! He always toyed with my emotions! He manipulated me the first time we met and now… now I felt as if I was suffocating from some sort of…. Toxi

Her shock was evident, and Maria’s eyes widened to the size of Texas.“Oh, dear,” I frowned and looked at my dirty hand, “Looks like I missed a spot.”With that, I wiped my hands on her clothing.I stood my ground as she clenched her teeth towards me. I swore she would have said something, but surprisingly, she didn’t. She walked away, muttering something angrily.Something about that told me that she wasn’t going to let it slide, but for now, I’ll celebrate my victory. I helped Maria clean up, as the poor girl was struggling to do so by herself since the other worker had left. When I was finished, I decided to take some dishes up to the stockroom on the top floor for her.On my way up there, in that hallway that I had to admit was dead creepy, I heard sudden shouts. It came from a room from afar. The last door at the end, which was slightly opened, it seemed like two persons were arguing inside there. Cautiously, I walked up to the door and peeked in, only to note the two shocking ind

My fear chewed me viciously, I had to get out. Without a second thought, I pushed myself off the bed and walked out of the room and out of the hall into Sinister’s room. He was asleep, shirtless on the bed, with an arm behind his head. The covers tousled gracefully low on his waist as he shifted slightly.Dear God.Was he naked?Taking a deep soft breath, I swallowed. I wasn’t going to scare myself to death back in that room. I didn’t want to be alone. Likewise, I hated the solitude. With a nervous flush, I walked around the bed and slipped myself in. I tried not to wake him up. He looked so peaceful while he was asleep, so harmless and less intimidating.I must be going mad, but I swore I saw a hint of a smile tug at the edge of his lips. No, I must be thinking too much. I was insane.Trying my best to shut my eyes, I snuggled into the sheets to keep myself warm. This man must have been a vampire or something because he slept with the AC at the lowest degree.“You’re here.” His soft
