Maria J“And you think I didn't?” I asked with an arrogant look on my face as he helped me out with the ropes. Suddenly the light was turned on, it was no longer dark. That was when I noticed three Beckers stepping into the room where I was. “Take them and get out now!” Mr. Lance growled. I had never heard him sound so angry before. He looked like if they didn't obey him immediately, he would kill them. I could feel the anger from where I sat. Why was he more upset than I am? I was the one who got kidnapped and almost raped her. I could hear the screams of Sofia while the guy beside her tried to fight with the Becker. I swear, I can't understand what these men were fed with, they were too strong to be human. One slap from Mr. Lance had caused James to black out. “I said get your dirty hands off me!” Sofia kept yelling. I wanted to see her and laugh at her but Mr. Lance was standing in front of me. I still could not figure out why he wasn't moving until I saw him taking off his s
If I didn't sound the warning loud enough, he would kill them. He has done it over and over again, I feared his anger. “Why not?” He asked. His once relaxed expression had turned into a frown. He didn't like where the discussion was heading “Because they are human beings like you and I, Mr. Lance. You cannot go about beating people up and down” “Then they shouldn't go about touching what is mine up and down?! Why didn't they go for other girls? Why not someone else? Why does it have to be you?” He fired backI froze as I stared at him, there was a fire in those eyes of his. He was angry and I was too, but his anger was worse, I didn't like the look in his eyes so I reached for his face. My fingers brush the side of his eyes.I'm not so sure who moved first but we were now very close to each other. His face directly in front of mine caused me to close my eyes and his intoxicating fragrance assaulted my nose again.‘J, don't do this. J, don't do it’ Voices rang in my head but instead
Standing before Anna and me was Mr. Lance, he had a passive face as he asked, “You don't want me here?” “Hey, you're the one that dealt with Uncle Jimmy the other time,” Anna asked with sparkling eyes that made me frown. “I am,” Mr. Lance replied. They both walked up to each other and gave each other a handshake. I furrowed my brows wondering where all these were coming from “I'm Anna,” “Call me Lance” Mr Lance replied as they continued to hold hands. What's with these two? “Lance, I loved how you dealt with those people that day. Every single one of them. I have a sister who can fight but will always do the opposite saying she was protecting me but when you did it, I couldn't be more glad. Especially with Uncle Jimmy. He used neck support for days,” she chuckled.“Do you know that they began to fear J after what you did? Whenever we want to get our way, we threaten them with the saying that you would come for them if they harm us” She grinned causing me to roll my eyes. “And
The time I went back inside the house, the entire family was staring at me like I was a ghost. They didn't say a word to me but continued to look at me,“I warned you not to open the door for him” I shrugged before walking away to my room. I needed a nice bath and some sleep. I stood outside the room with my hand on the handle of the door. I know Anna well enough to know that she will not stop asking questions about Mr Lance. Taking a deep breath, I finally walked into the room to see Anna sitting on the bed with her eyes fixed on me. She was clearly waiting for me to get back so she could bombard me with questions. “Who is he to you, J? Is he your boyfriend?” She asked and I screamed immediately,“No!” She raised her brows and I sighed,“No, no, he is not” “But he likes you,” she said to me and I shifted my gaze elsewhere. Mr. Lance did all these on purpose. “Anna, let's forget about Mr. Lance. I'll just go and have my bath. Have you eaten? I'm quite hungry,” She looked at me f
“To the hospital, to the hospital” I quickly answered. My breath held as I quickly made the decision I knew wouldn't kill them. “Okay, as you wish, my princess” I fought back the words I wanted to spit out in anger before asking, “Can I request that you do nothing to them? There are still some in the hospital fighting for their lives” “And they will continue to fight for their lives till they learn not to fight with you, J” he replied without remorse. “And no, there is no way I would do nothing to them. They hurt you” I still don't know what I did for him to be so close to me and so protective. I only gave him a lap dance the first day I met him and he saved me from some set of men, how did we get here? “Mr. Lance—”“Lance” he cut me off, “Lance, please can you just not kill them?” I was stubborn, but Mr. Lance was the definition of cruel.“I'll try my best, sweetheart. Now, go to bed. We will talk later in the morning, alright? Goodnight, honey. I love you” I held my breath
Lance“Alpha, you have to stop all these?” I heard Allen continue to complain here and there about how it wasn't the right way to handle certain things“So are you going to send me to jail, Officer Allen?” I asked with raised brows. I was actually expecting J’s call and not his. I wonder why he had called when he could have just dealt with the situation without calling me. “I'm still trying to clean your name, Alpha Lance” “No, Allen. I did a perfectly clean job. You're the only one who knows that I am behind it. So what are you clearing? Do you have proof? Evidence?” I asked. He doesn't, my Becker wouldn't leave even a fingerprint so where the hell did he want to get proof? The only proof he has is knowing that I am in town and that of itself is not proof until I say something that would add to that proof. “Those were kids, Alpha Lance” he sighed and I could hear it over the phone. “Okay… Kids that kidnapped my mate and wanted to rape her. Since when did Kids start behaving so
Maria J In anger, I had ended Lance's call. I didn't bother to go home to get changed or take a bath since I was already late for work. I went straight to the club thinking of how to start avoiding Lance. This was getting worse because how could he beat someone so badly without mercy and also chop off his fingers? James was unrecognizable, he looked like someone who was beaten by a whole army. Again, I ask myself where this set of men learned their skills from. Stepping down from the car, I paid the taxi driver and went inside the club through the back door. I stepped into the dressing room to see the other ladies arrange themselves quickly, causing me to raise my brows at them. What was it they were doing before I stepped in? I wasn't in the mood to respond to them so I ignored them and went to my locker. A frown formed on my face when I noticed that my locker had been tampered with. The lock was broken. Slowly I opened it and couldn't find my costume inside. “Hmm” Now I see w
“Bitch, sorry to burst your bubbles but I was with him all through last night!”This got everyone staring at me like I had said something really strange. I would rather they think I was sleeping with Lance than Hailey and I don't know why. I was too angry to even question my decision. “Boss Austin, it's either she leaves or I do. Make your choice now” I said before I marched away from them and went back into the club, one thing is for sure, they had ruined my mood. I was going back home. “Red! Red!” I heard Boss Austin called but I snubbed him. When I got into the room, I went to take my bag ready to leave when the ladies along with Boss Austin came in to stop me. “I have to leave, Boss. You got a replacement for me, didn't you?” “Red, you know no one can replace you. I didn't even know she was doing that” I glared at Boss Austin as I yelled at him, pointing my finger at him,“But she clearly said you saw her wear my clothes yesterday. And who the fuck did she use my name to sle
