All Chapters of Blood Ties And Betrayal: The rogues redemption : Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

MaverickI wasn't expecting Ember to agreed immediately, I was just teasing her like I always does, but having this tuned to a reality, I could only go along with it, she took a pack of five beers, while I carried the other as we made for the living room, does she even knows how mouthwatering she looked in this nightwear? I figured she'll be coming back, so I went to that same store and got more, and right now, I know I couldn't have done anything better.The nightwear shorts clung to her hips, accentuating her curves, and bringing into view her plump ass. She's the definition of a walking temptress, she just never knew.We agreed to sit in the bar area. I would have put her on higher terms like drinking tequila or whiskey, but I wanna see how well she's going to handle this beer.She was the first to open her beer, I was staring at her face but all I could read was determination, why was she so keen on getting rid of the beer? And to think she's doing this for me, I feel delighted i

Ember's povThe next morning.My head was hurting badly when I woke up, stretching my body to set my poor bones in place, I rolled and came nose to nose with Maverick.I almost jumped back with fright, bringing forth another wave of ache throbbing in my head as though Thor's hammer was smashed on my head.I looked down to see Kai in between us, he was fast asleep, and so was his father, they slept almost in the same posture, eye lashes quivering unnoticeably, the man has his arm around my waist, and his other hand under his head, Why was he in my bed? I looked around, it was the same room, nothing different, and yet, this man ended up going to bed with Kai and I? Did anything happen that night? And why can I not remember anything!?I racked my brain for something, even a fragment of anything that might've Happened last night? Did I eventually win? No way, I can imagine myself passing out on the bar.Goodness, I want to hide right now, my face burned hotter, as I averted my gaze and c

EmberMy eyes were fixed on the laptop in front of me as I typed all the texts, attached the file and eventually pressed send. Taking a deep breath I stretched on the chair and placed the laptop on the table, I covered my mouth and yawned.“I thought you were going to take forever, I nearly became Elsa here.” Clara retorted.“Oh, please, I was only on the laptop for a few minutes.” “You called that some minutes!?” She raised an eyebrow pulling Kai who was sitting on her laps into her chest and kissed his forehead. “Okay… Maybe about an hour. Now you have it, stop nagging like an old lady.” She scoffed, “Now I'm an old lady? I mean you literally pulled me from the comfort of my bed, having a nice afternoon dream about Hawaii and have me behind wheels for over an hour to a place I nearly got lost, even with the maps and navigator!” She dramatically yelled and rolled her eyes.“Thank you.” I said for the tenths time that day with exhaustion, she had me saying that everytime she broug

MaverickMy car pulled over at the driveway, I turned off the ignition, removed my keys, it took me a few minutes to stepped out of the car, I had delayed the process deliberately, I was a little frustrated that afternoon, I leaned against the car, basking in the scorching sunlight, not because I like the heat, but I felt like staying in it that afternoon would at least burn off that temper, melt down that inferno burning inside of me. My mind trailed back to what happened in the office, with Rowan staring at me as if he knew me whole, I lost control, and it was even more bothersome because I hadn't lost control in ages, I've always managed to cling unto that shred of sanity, cling unto that tiny spec of light, in that infinite darkness, that was swelling within me, threatening to swallow me whole.I wondered how much he knew… how much he knew to gain such confidence, or could it be nothing but a bluff? After all a dying man would clutch at a straw, however, what if he truly knew som

EmberWith Clara gone, everywhere became silent, and boring, i have my eyes staring into the ceiling, reminiscing over what had happened in the past few years, it was just a few days ago when I was in Florida with Lyra, I was suddenly back here again in Arizona,A place I had begun my life, and the place everything came crashing down, everything I've ever cherished, loved, has. Truly, when you're alone you reminisce over everything, your mind will keep bringing them to you even if you don't want to. But what I couldn't understand was why Astrid would betray Derek that way. My mind flashed back to the time we spent together, the way Derek had loved her, even that day.FlashbackEntered into the house with my school bag slung on my shoulder. Certainly, Astrid must have made lunch, a bright smile plastered on my face, she's the best step mom one could ever wish for. Putting my phone on the dining, the last thing I need that afternoon is distraction, I've got plenty assignments to work
