Caroline fucking Walters

SARAHMy phone rings immediately when the message goes through. I smile at Ronan’s contact name displayed on my screen. Grumpy. I swipe the icon to the right, and once it clicks with the green buzzer on the screen, I put it on loudspeaker. “So, you do know something about Langford group of companies.” He laughs at his end of the line. The sound of it, rich and silky, makes my cheeks hot. The heat spreads to my chest very quickly, down to my stomach, until I’m seated on my chair with my right leg crossed over my left, craving some kind of friction—any kind—between my legs. “They’re a family company. Sort of affiliated, but not really. We’ve worked closely with them for years. We only thought it was right.” “I see,” my tongue trails over my teeth. I try my best to hide my smile. “You know you didn’t have to.”“I know. We wanted to. Since we’re going to be a family soon, it’s only fair we keep the family business together.”“You make it sound like a cult.”“That’s sexy. Cults are

Truth Always prevails

SARAH Of fucking course. Who else would show up to disturb my perfectly solemn afternoon by tailing me all the way from my office. Detective Caroline Walters shifts uncomfortably in her…my seat—it’s mine because she sure as hell wasn’t invited. Her under eyes are dark and puffy, and looks like she hasn’t slept in days. Her hair is pulled into a very tight ponytail that flows downwards, to the padded shoulders of her wrinkled cream blazer.I put my kobo down and lean backwards, stretching my back against my seat. “Are you stalking me, detective? This is starting to feel a lot like harassment, and I really do not appreciate harassed.”Her shoulders curl as she leans forward in a swift movement, desperate to eliminate the distance between us. “Listen,” her breath is shaky. “I don’t know what you know, or what it is you think you know, but you don’t have to do this. YOU SHOULDN’T DO THIS.”I blink at her. “I’m sorry, what?”She looks around urgently, warding off whatever prying eyes

Leaving durmont

SARAH I know I promised to stay quiet and mind my business while the brothers handle the detective, but it’s really hard to. I can’t eat without seeing the plea in her eyes, the fear, the impending sense of doom. Great. She managed to completely ruin a perfect meal, and the rest of my day. The email I get at the close of work makes everything so much worse. The notification pops up on my screen while I’m on my desk. “Emergency Board Meeting on Friday. Attendance Mandatory.”I heave a sigh, my fingers massaging the sides of my head. Hours of staring at my screen has left me with a splitting headache. Julian didn’t waste any time.I stare at the email, reading it three times like the words might change if I look hard enough. They don’t. The meeting is scheduled. The battle line has been drawn. I have about four working days to figure out how to save my company, keep me in it. I feel far too tired to panic right now. I close my laptop, grab my bag, and head home.The house is

Julian fucking Cross

SARAH I shift against the pillows just to find a relaxing position. I will like this call to take a while,so I make sure I’m prepared for it. “Where do I even start?” “You can start from the beginning,” Jaxon says, “Ronan says he called you earlier.” Right. “So, I saw Julian today…” They collectively hiss, and it leaves me clenching my stomach from laughter. Now, I love when they’re petty and protective of me. It’s a cute and hot combination. It’s funny too.

Choosing to keep you alive

RONAN Finding his house is easy. As easy as removing a speck of dust from my shoes. I know what you’re thinking. I shouldn’t be on his driveway for any reason at eleven in the midnight, especially since Sarah asked us to let her fight this on her own. However, I refuse to believe she thinks we’re just going to sit on our asses and do nothing. She’s smarter than that. As a matter of fact, I can bet the entire Hawk Estate she knows I’m going to find him tonight. And I have. Julian Cross lives in a penthouse downtown. &nbs

A flash of white

SARAH When I walk into the office, there are two major goals on my mind. One. Complete my quarterly report review. Two. Stay the hell away from Julian Cross. I am killing both until he storms into my office thirty minutes before my lunch break. I am beginning to think his blatant disrespect is happening in order to get a reaction from me. I’m not going to give him what he wants. I don’t look up. “Ever heard of knocking, mister Cross? Or is basic courtesy beneath you now?” “We need to talk.”

Pathetic snake

JAXON “I’m going to get you, silly bitch. You’re a fucking…” I grab him by his collar, and my fist shuts pound into his face. The crack of his nose breaking under my knuckles is the most satisfying sound I’ve ever heard. He goes down hard, blood spraying across Sarah’s tiled, and I’m on him before either of us can even process what happened. I grab his collar once more, haul him up, hit him again. His head snaps back. More blood splatters all over. My hands, my face. The unlucky motherfucker has given me one more chance to satisfy my bloodlust. I am determined to hold on to this opportunity no matter what. “You put your hands on her?” I hear myself roaring. “You fucking touched her?” He tries to say something, and don’t care. I hit him again. And again. On his

See you again

SARAH “I can’t believe you did that.” Jaxon has his hands wrapped around my waist while I clean the blood off his forehead. He pulls me even closer, sniffing my scent. Over and over again, he tried to lean into my body, but I try to hold his face upwards. You know, to avoid blood on my shirt. There’s a bump and a bruise there from where his head collided.Each bloody cotton ball hits the bottom of the waste bin. I peep into it for a second, and my mind counts ten already used balls. Sheesh. That’s really a lot of blood. I’m surprised he isn’t dizzy or light headed yet. Jaxon HawkThorne is anything but a normal man. I remember his kill count, and I heaved a sigh. Of course, what’s a little bruise on the head and knuckles compared to other things he would have done?

Freedom

SARAH Remind me to always do whatever it takes to make sure I never end up in prison. It smells like industrial cleaner and broken dreams, if the latter had a smell. I sit down at the visitation booth and wait. The brothers are in the parking lot. We had a discussion last night and I told them I needed to speak to him alone. They didn’t like the sound of that. However, we agreed to disagree. They decided they’ll drive me to the precinct, and I’ll face him alone. In no time, Aaron appears on the other side of the glass.

No other choice

SARAH I decide to take two days off. “I can’t believe you’re making me do this.” Ronan hands me a helmet, completely unbothered by my protest. “You said you wanted to do something fun.” “I said I wanted to relax. This is the opposite of relaxing.” “It’s go-karting, kitten. Not skydiving.” “I’m pregnant!” “Which is why we chose the slowest track in the city,” Malachi says, already strapping on his own helmet. “No sharp turns. Sp
