Aiden
"Goddamit," I tightened my grip around the club as I watched the bloodied man sprawled on the ground, his breath ragged and shallow. "Give me a fucking name, bastard!" I grunt, swinging the club and striking his side. He jerked, then lay still on the cold floor of the basement. The basement smelled of blood and sweat. I have been here for two hours trying to get this bastard to cough up the name of the bastard who sent him to steal from me but he kept his mouth shut till the very end. This was getting on my nerves. How dare they steal from me? I guess I am not as scary as I used to be in the past. They should remember that no one messes with me and lives to tell the tale! "Hey," I said, nudging his face with the end of the club that had his blood on the surface, but he remained still. "No way I am letting you die without giving me a name," I growled, bending down to slap his face. I put a finger under his nose and felt a faint breath. "Take him away. Make sure he doesn't die." I ordered one of my men. The man's limp body was quickly dragged out of the basement. I stood up, cracking my neck with a sigh. "And you," I turned to the man, tied to a chair. "I hope you last longer than him, cause I am in the mood to let off some steam." I chuckled, walking towards him. "I swear I have no idea, Aiden! We were just given the Intel where the goods were located and where to drop them off after we stole them. The money was at the location when we arrived!" He blurted, trembling. "Ah, so you are trying to tell me someone contracted you to steal from me and you did?" I said, combing my hair backwards. "I am sorry, I just need the extra cash. I swear..." I brought the club down on his thigh before he could complete his words which were replaced with a scream. "You should have thought of the consequences when you messed with me," "Please," he cried. "Give me a name. You know damn well the name I want to hear," He shook his head, crying. Fuck it! Two more swinging of the club and he gave up. "That pussy. Why get caught when you can't handle a beating?" "I need a shower," I groaned, dropping the club on the floor as I took my gloves off. "Clean it up. We will continue when they regain consciousness," I said. I need a shower. I took off my bloodied shirt and pants when I got into my room then proceeded to the bathroom where I turned on the shower. Steam filled the bathroom as hot water poured down my body. How do I make those bastards say the name I wanted to hear? I gritted my teeth and punched the wall. My knuckles ached but I couldn't care less. They just had to mess with the goods when I was in charge of it. I heard the bathroom door creak open, followed by the click of heels on the bathroom floor then they stopped. She was probably taking off her clothes. I didn't need to turn around to know who it was. She was the only woman who entered my place uninvited and I would be lying if I said it didn't piss me off. Then again she was a good fuck. She got under the shower with me, pressing her naked body against my back, as she carried my chest. "I have missed you," she purred behind me, trailing wet kisses down my back, her fingers sliding down towards my cock. "Why are you here?" I inhaled sharply as she began stroking me slowly. "There is a list of names on the table in your room," she said, moving around me, her eyes staring at mine when she faced me. "Father wants you to track them and bring them to him, dead or alive." She informs me as she slowly knelt before me. "Mhm," Her lips parted and she took my cock into her mouth. I groaned, my head falling back, one hand grabbing her wet hair as I thrust into her mouth. Freya was the daughter of the Don, and we were nothing more than two messed up souls using each other's bodies. I yanked her up, pushing her against the wall, and lifting her. She wrapped her legs around my waist, and I positioned myself and drove into her with a powerful thrust, that made her cry out in pleasure. I stood on the balcony of my estate, leaning on the rails a glass of wine in my hand as I gazed out at the forest encircling the estate. It was located on the outskirts of town, secluded from people. I took a sip of my wine, my eyes drifting downwards to where two of my men sat next to the pool, playing cards. "Boss," I heard Storm call from behind me, and I turned to him. He was my most trusted man. He swore his loyalty to me the day I saved his life from Alexander, the current underboss and the bastard I suspected ordered the stealing of the goods in my possession. "The information you wanted." He stepped forward, a brown envelope in his hand. I took the envelope from him as I walked past him into the sitting room. I sat down on the sofa, tearing it open and pulling out the documents inside it. "Leah Carter. She is the daughter of Micheal Carter, who runs the Carter empire, and her mother is Rebecca Carter. She owns a famous clothing brand in the country. They divorced five years ago and..." "Who knew that old geezer had a daughter as gorgeous as her," I chuckled, going through the documents. He hid her well. There was no way I would have forgotten a body like hers. "She is married to Liam Walsh, who works as a manager in the..." "She is married to who?" I looked up at Storm, straightening up so fast as the name hit me. There was no way in hell, I heard correctly. "Liam Walsh," he repeated. I flipped through the remaining documents and finally found what I was looking for. A photo of her husband. Liam fucking Walsh. No fucking way! I chuckled. This was getting more interesting than I anticipated. A twisted smile spread across my face as I leaned back on the sofa, bringing the photo close to my face as I studied the picture. "Liam Walsh," I threw my head back and laughed. This wasn't the reunion I was looking forward to. Ah, how long has it been, ten years? "Leah Walsh," I grinned, running my fingers through my hair. The woman who has been on my mind ever since I met her that day. I inhaled deeply as I recalled her sweet scent. She was a beautiful woman. Gorgeous with a hot body. I loved the way her thick blonde waves tumbled down her back, stopping just above the curve of her firm, round ass. My body craved hers. The thought of laying my hands on her naked body. Fuck! I clenched my fists, nails digging into my palm A wicked smile curled at the corners of my lips as a twisted thought came to my mind. Her beautiful face covered in tears. I wanted her even more, and I would have her, no matter what.Leah,Friday finally came! My mom agreed to the dinner right away as if she had been looking forward to it for a long time. The only time they got to see each other was at social gatherings, so I understand that this was more intimate since it would be only the family present."Why don't we plan a date for two of them?" Aria, my second sister who lived in another city, suggested that morning over the phone.That was a great idea. I know my parents still loved each other despite them denying it. They haven't been in a serious relationship since their divorce, and there is this tension between them whenever they are in the same room. They just needed a push to realize that.The hairs on my arm and neck prickled like tiny needles as a hand grazed my bare arm. I didn't need to look up to know who it was. The smell of his familiar cologne hit me before he spoke. It was weird that I knew the smell of his cologne when we only met twice."Mr. Carter," his rough deep voice greeted, and I shiv
Leah,I felt the weight of his head rest on my shoulders as he murmured, "Is it me, or were you running away from me?""If you don't mind, I'd like to get in my car and go home," I shivered when his nose brushed against my neck."I find this part of you cute," he said. "The part that acts like she isn't scared."I removed my hand just as he was about to slam the car door shut, jerking back in panic, my body pressing against his. His chest vibrated against my back from a chuckle, and I took a step forward quickly, turning around to face him."What the hell are you doing?" I yelled, my voice shaking despite my best effort to hide my fear.His amused eyes stared down at me, a smile curling his lips, knowing that he had me cornered just like he wanted.Fuck! I hated this."Just trying to fulfil a promise," he shrugged. "I don't like the idea of breaking a promise.""I told you I was married," I bit my lip, looking anywhere but at him."And I made it clear I didn't give a fuck, doll." He c
Leah,I was yet to realize the gravity of the situation I was in. I didn't understand fully what it meant to attract the attention of Aiden Kingston, a caporegime of the Kingston family. The strongest crime family in the city.A man who was under one man and above many others. Normally, I wouldn't be searching online for him, but the situation called for a background check, and the news wasn't giving me much. Heck, the news didn't mention anything about them being a crime family!They had everyone starting from the politicians down to the police and business owners at their finger tips. So it wasn't surprising that there was no article about their illegal activities.The Kingston family ran a hotel, club, and casino business, but we all know that is not all it is. It was just a cover-up for their illegal business. I needed to know who I was dealing with and avoid him at all cost, but who would I ask. My parents would become suspicious if I asked about it.It was frustrating how on g
Leah,Liam: I won't be attending the wedding with you. Something urgent came up! Send my greetings to John. Love you ☺️I stared down at my phone as I reread the message. I should have known he was going to do this at the last moment! He even bought me a dress and acted like he was so excited about going for a social event with me.Maybe something urgent actually came up!I drove into the hotel where the reception was being held. The name 'Ceaser's ' was written in bold letters on the hotel. It was one of the biggest hotels in the city, and I should have done my research before coming. That way, I wouldn't be as shocked as I was when I ran into him.The valet, a young man with a charming smile, took the key from me as I got down from my car.As I walked through the hallway heading for the ballroom, I ran into one of my dad's business partner."Mrs. Carter," the man with grey hair called.He was with a younger woman who supported him by holding his arm."Mrs. Walsh," I corrected the ma
Leah"Why didn't you tell me you were coming?" Liam said to his mom as he leaned down to hug her."Do I need permission to visit my son?" His mother joked while running her hands through his back.I stood behind them waiting patiently for the mother and son to finish their greetings. It would be better if they continued without her noticing my presence. I hated it when she visited. She never stopped reminding me that I haven't given her a grandchild. She forgot that it takes a man and a woman to have a child. If Liam doesn't want a child then how was I going to have a child, immaculate conception?"You know that is not what I meant, mother.""Welcome, mother." I smiled cheerfully when they broke their sweet embrace.She turned to me not hiding her disgust with my presence. Two year ago when I was still dating Liam she always cherished me, acting like she would be the best mother-in-law in the world. Who knew not having a child would make her change her attitude towards me quickly? Or
Leah"Then what do you mean, Leah? I can't have my mother breathing down my neck for a grandchild, and my wife, who is supposed to understand me, demanding sex from me every time like she is starved of it." "Starved of it? When was the last time you touched me, Liam? Because I don't say it doesn't mean it isn't obvious that you are ignoring me in bed. I know you love me, but I still have sexual urges, Liam. Why are you making it seem like I am asking too much?" I said, trying to hold back my tears."Goddamit, Leah, you act as if you don't know what I am going through. Well, I don’t blame you, your parents are wealthy and you don't have to worry about anything except sex!" "Liam," I screamed, feeling hurt by his words."Fuck this!" He said, and walked away slamming the door behind him.Silent tears ran down my cheeks as I was left alone in the room. I shouldn't have said that. I should have just endured like I always did, and maybe it wouldn't have escalated. I sounded like all I ca
LeahI hated Mondays. They were the most stressful and demanding day of the week, and today just had to be the board of directors' meeting. "...we dominated the market not only in this city but several other cities surpassing last year's sales over the past quarter," I concluded, and the board members, started clapping, smiling, and nodding to me"A 15% increase in revenue compared to last year this same period is wild, Leah. I am glad we made the right choice choosing you." The chairman said with a wink.He looked more pleased than everyone in the room as he stood up clapping. I felt satisfied with the result of my hard work. I made a promise when I was chosen not to mess up and make sure the Chairman was not disappointed in me, even though I doubt he would ever be.After the meeting, the Chairman approached me with a warm smile as I gathered the documents before me. I returned the smile, turning to face him. "Should we have lunch together, Mrs. COO?" he teased, and I chuckled, sha
Leah "Leah," the stranger repeated, my name as if tasting it. There was something about the way he said my name, like a secret whispered in the dark. "Please call me Aiden," he said, extending his hand for a handshake. I stared down at his large hand that could easily hold two of mine, hesitating before looking up at him again. What harm could taking his hand do? I forced my hand into his, and they felt rough and strong against mine. He gripped it firmly and slowly. While holding my gaze, he lifted my hand to his lips. He placed a soft kiss on the back of my hand, the warmth of his breath caressing my skin, sending sparks up my arm like a live wire. A gasp escaped my lips as I pulled my hand away from his. A low rumble escaped his lips, and I was certain he was aware of the effect he was having on me. This was dangerous. "Nice meeting you, Leah." He said, his eyes shifting to my hair. "Your hair looks more beautiful when you let it down," He reached out a hand, and before
