(Akira’s POV).I could feel my phone vibrated in my pocket. It must have been Charles, who wanted to know about my decision to run away with him, away from Sebastian.All I had to do was to send him my location. He would come immediately to rescue me.It was a plan that I was looking forward to. Something that I had to do to get free from Sebastian.But somehow, I could not do it. My mind was slowly making sense of what would happen if I left Sebastian.For one thing, I would lose Samuel. Sebastian would eventually find a way to take my son away from me. And I was not ready for that.Another thing was my heart. He said he loved me. Twice.“Coffee for you, Honey. And I found some snacks. We’ll grab something to eat later” he sat next to me and handed me a cup of delicious smelling coffee.“Thank you” I gave him a weak smile as I placed my hand in my pocket to end the call that I could guess coming from Charles. What a persistent man Charles was.“Don’t you want to answer it?” he asked
(Sebastian’s POV).I look at the person sleeping next to me. Beautiful and serene looking.A little snore of hers was heard and I was beginning to like it. It made me chuckled to hear them. Her cute little snore was just like the ones I hear coming out from my little Sammy, at night.All it took was for me to kiss her. It made her limp to my control. She was lost for words and that was when I took her at her weakest moment, making her submit to my demands. Sexually.Lying on the bed next to her, in the room of the jet, I caressed her soft blushed cheeks. She looked tired. And it was all my fault. Perhaps, I was a little rough with her at times on bed.Could not resist her. She was my aphrodisiac.After our passionate breathtaking kiss, it was that impulse we had that gave us that bond. Both wanting more of each other. She felt it too and I could sense her heart slowly opening to accept me.I caressed the bare skin of her body with my fingers. Circling her arm gently. She trembled to
(Akira’s POV).I got out from the shower, feeling refreshed after several hours of sleep. Did not realise I could have that deep sleep on a moving plane. What happened to my motion sickness?Looking at my reflection on the mirror, I gasped seeing those bite marks on my neck and my breast. Sebastian seemed to like marking my body so much.Sex was no longer something I was afraid of doing with him. A little painful at times but my body seemed to respond well with his movements. I smiled to myself remembering his whispered words of love for me.Would this love of his for me last long? I was not sure of that. A man like Sebastian Strauss could have any woman he wanted. I still wondered why he chose me.I sighed and tried to cover it with whatever powder and concealer I brought with me in my bag. “He is so annoying”After wearing my jeans and shirt, I walked out from the shower. “Sebastian, have you seen my phone?”“I think I saw it somewhere on the table” He helped me look for it and han
(Akira’s POV).We arrived at the entrance of the safe house, where Vivian was supposed to be kept safe. The gate to the place was wide opened, by force. It looked like someone had pushed it open most likely by running it through with a large vehicle.I only had one person in mind. Vivian’s husband. Who else could it be?“Akira, stay in the car. Let Jack and I go in first”“What? No. I’m going in. Look, that’s my car. Molly drove it here. She is not answering my call, Sebastian. She might be in trouble. You have no idea what Vivian’s husband is capable of”“Akira, it is dangerous. I know. Honey, just stay in the car” he said before exiting the car with Jack and left me in the car with the driver.“Let me guess. You are not going to let me out, won’t you?” I said to the driver who then locked the car not letting me to exit. A well-built physique man that looked not at all friendly.I sighed not liking the situation much. It was not just Vivian that I was worried about. Molly could act
(Author’s POV).In a designer’s shop made for the rich and famous, Suzanne Cage was carrying new and exclusive dresses only made for those rich families. A tradition for the people in Amberose City to dress exclusively for the coming new year eve party.A party held by the Strauss family with only special invites given to those worthy of their friendship. The Cage family was one of them.“I want this dress in three colours, wrapped nicely” Suzanne then pointed to matching high heels with crystals decorated its strap. “I want two of those and that one too”“Yes, Miss Cage. How about this latest design from the handbag collection? You’ll be the first to own them” the shop assistant smiled happily knowing she would be compensated handsomely when serving the Cage family during their shopping spree.She did not mind how horrible she was being treated by Suzanne Cage. The commission she would earn in serving her rich clients would give her a decent meal to eat for a month. Perhaps, she cou
(Sebastian’s POV).The Strauss family seemed to be accepting Akira in my life well. However, the meeting I had with them was without the presence of my mother. She had distanced herself from most of Strauss family members after her separation from my father.They did not like her much and had called her the other woman who had destroyed my father’s first marriage to another woman of the Strauss family’s choice. I could not blame them for not liking my mother. She was indeed a difficult person to comprehend.Despite all her flaws, my father loved her very much. He had accepted her for who she was. And that included loving her even after she had cheated on him with another man.But that affair was kept a secret. My father did not want others to hate her more.At times I wondered what was it that made my father loved my mother that much. She had done nothing much to keep our family together. She had even left me when I was just a child around Samuel’s age. Having her back in my life aga
(Akira’s POV).I reached the office with many eyes staring at me. Who would not be staring at me with a muscular man accompanying me all the way from the lobby to my office?Yeah, the bodyguard, who I still did not know the name, was following me like a puppy.Sebastian had insisted on me having him around for protection. He just could not take no for an answer.“Akira, my dear. You are back” Henry greeted me and gave me a brief hug, “So, who is this man? I’m sure he is not Sebastian”I looked at the bodyguard and sighed, “He came with the package with Sebastian. A bodyguard with a name which he has not told me yet”“Tev” the bodyguard looked at me with a neutral expression of not either smiling or angry.“Oh, you can talk” I pretended to be surprised. It had no effect on him. Fine.“I’m happy to see you alive. In one piece”“Henry, I’m fine. Sebastian is annoying but he is not a killer” I took a glance at Tev and sighed looking at the black circle surrounding his left eye, “Alright,
(Akira’s POV).What was I doing? I should not have gone to see Charles. Not when I should be at home having dinner with Sebastian, my lovely neighbours and Milky.But I knew if I did not end my relationship with Charles, he would not stop to want to meet me. I needed to end this phase with him, so that I could be with my son and perhaps try to be with Sebastian.After entering the café, I looked around for Charles as I also looked around to ensure Sebastian’s bodyguard Tev, would not come look for me. It was not an easy thing to get away from him. Fortunately, I had Molly to disguise to be me and confused Tev along the way.I needed to be quick. That man would come look for me soon.“Akira” I heard Charles voice and looked up to see him seated at the corner of the café wearing a cap. A disguise that even I, did not notice him. He had some facial hair grown on his chin. A look I was not familiar with.I walked swiftly to where he was seated and whispered, “You need to be quick. I don’
