Devil In Disguise Missing glove (2)
Angelica I stared at the file in my hands in shock. Why was there a file labeled Giannelli? Did Curtis already know who I was? Spider spooked the life out of me when he spoke right next to my ear like a phantom. “Open it.” “I’ll kill you if you keep scaring me like that.” I warned him. Though to be fair, he had done nothing wrong. It was not his fault that seeing this file had made me so sensitive that a gust of wind would scare me. He made a show of pulling a zipper over his lips but stayed in my line of sight so I wouldn’t forget what he said. I willed my heart to stop racing and opened it. However, there was nothing in the file. At least, there didn’t appear to be anything. Just a stack of empty sheets of paper with the first one printed “Giannelli” in large, bold font. I glanced at the wall we had come through. How come the secret room wasn’t nearly as secured as an ordinary vault? “This feels…” I flipped through the pages one at a time in case there was something else. Spi
Devil In Disguise Late-night tryst
AngelicaHow the hell did I get myself into this?It was nearly 4 am the last time I glanced at the time. Between then and now, I didn’t know how much time had passed but I knew it was nowhere near the time I was expected to be awake. Curtis shouldn’t be banging at my door so early in the morning. The only reason he was here could be… he had found out about my late-night tryst.What was worse, the evidence was all over me. The smoky clothes. My messed up hair. My missing glove. That glove could be anywhere between the Arcieros’ library and this apartment.Fuck.This was not how I envisioned my death.“Angelica? Are you in there?” I heard his voice much closer. He was in my room. Of course he owned a spare key.“Yes.” I croaked out.“I see.” He said. If I wasn’t reading too much into it, there was a hint of something in his voice when he heard that one word from me. Relief?I didn’t have time to dwell on it. I had to come up with something fast. Something that would explain me leaving
Devil In Disguise The curiosity that killed cats
I couldn’t face Curtis—not directly, anyway.It was already hard to look at him and not think about my dream from the night before but did he have to walk around shirtless too? I caught myself staring at his back for the third time and I had only been in the kitchen for five minutes. He was resting his elbows on the kitchen counter, humming gently as he waited for the timer to go off on the waffle maker. On the other hand, I didn’t know what the hell I was doing here. I would lie and say I was hungry and waiting to prey on some of his waffles but I would be deceiving myself. I didn’t know he had stopped humming until he spoke. “Enjoying the view?” My cheeks flushed. Where were snarky comments when I needed them? Instead of saying something smart, I said the stupidest thing ever. “What’s there to enjoy?” I could imagine the smirk on his face without having to see it. “Sweetheart, my back would have a pair of holes through it if eyes could burn.” As if it was not enough that he wa
Devil In Disguise Honeymoon
CurtisGrandfather was a cunning old man with the most twisted sense of fun. What did he gain from putting me in this pickle? First, I had to grab a woman out of nowhere and make her my wife, and now I had to share a room with her for a week? “Why are we sharing a room?” She asked the same question on my mind when we were finally in our room—a wedding suite. Just great. “Maverick has someone following us.” “How do you even know that?” She crossed her arms, clearly calling me out for what she thought was a lie. “Because it’s someone I know.” I was already annoyed and her tone wasn’t helping. “Listen, I have no interest in women who don’t want me. Forget a different room, I would let you sleep in a different hotel if you wanted. But if we want to pull this off, we cannot even take a room with two beds.” She looked around as if a bed would magically appear. On the bright side, the king-sized bed in the middle of the room was big enough for both of us to sleep in and still keep our
Devil In Disguise Nightmare
Curtis My phone rang and saved me from having to answer that trick question. Giancarlo. I saw the name on my screen and knew I couldn't talk in Angelica’s presence."I'll take this." I got up before she could respond and walked several feet away, only answering when I was certain I was out of her earshot. "Why are you calling now?" "I spent the last few days doing nothing but helping you find answers. A 'thank you' would be nice, brother." He snapped. That was exactly why he shouldn't be calling me. He knew I would be spending the next six days with Angelica glued to my side like an accessory. "What did you find?" I asked. "Nothing. She's all clean. No reason to be suspicious of her." He said. It was exactly because there was no reason to be suspicious that I was suspicious. No one was innocent. But again, my brother was the best investigator I could ever think of. No matter what was erased, he could find it. The fact that he found nothing worth noting about Angelica could e
Devil In Disguise I chose you
AngelicaHell hath no fury like a woman scorned. That’s what I was thinking when I asked Curtis about his dating history. For a man like him, there had to be a woman—or five—who couldn’t get over the heartbreak she suffered thanks to his assholery. Initially, I had intended to ask what he knew about my family. That phone call had saved me from making that stupid mistake. Alas, not only did I not get a helpful answer, but I ended up blowing up and nearly revealing the truth about my parents. Since when did I let my feelings erupt like that? The Viper was right. I was not patient enough for a long-term revenge plan. I had to be done with this insanity soon. Luckily, it didn’t take a genius to guess who had called him. The fact that he went so far to answer the call was enough. Giancarlo. As if I didn’t already have enough ticking time bombs to skirt around. “Do you want to go back?” He offered. “Good idea.” I couldn’t handle the awkwardness that followed after that outburst eit
Devil In Disguise Clinging like an octopus
My body was stiff. My attempt at moving was blocked by something—no—someone. His arms were wrapped tightly around me when I woke up. I looked down at his forearm at my torso, then his leg on top of mine locking me in place. No cuddling, my ass. He was the one clinging to me like an octopus—not that I was complaining. The more I stayed in that position, the more aware I became of him, his pulse against my back, his gentle, slow breaths at the back of my head, his morning wood pressed firmly against my butt. A blush crept up my cheeks. Luckily, he was asleep. I used the chance to gently peel his arm off me. It weighed like lead. After several failed attempts, I gave up and decided to catch a little more sleep—as much as I could get with his cock prodding at my ass, that is. I closed my eyes and ended up stirring, unable to fall asleep. My mind was flooded with all kinds of thoughts, none that had anything to do with what I wanted to think about. Instead of thinking about my strategy
Devil In Disguise Two right feet
CurtisI would explode if I stayed within the same space as Angelica for a second longer. Whether in anger or desire, I wouldn’t know until it happened—not that I wasn’t halfway there already. For a woman whose existence I wasn’t supposed to notice for the next six months, she was more infuriating than Siren. It wasn’t lost to me that she had gawked at me the whole time and my reaction to her was even crazier. I had almost shut her up with my lips. The fact that I even considered that was proof that I should keep my distance. So it wasn’t such a bad thing that I had a meeting scheduled with Lance today. He was yet to arrive at The Pearl when I did. I hated to wait for anyone more than I hated whiny women. If he wasn’t the CEO of Arciero Industries, I would have walked out. I glowered at him when he finally wobbled in ten minutes later, out of breath. “I’m sorry. My wife kicked a fuss about me having a business meeting. I almost couldn’t make it out of the house in one piece, I ha
