Alice's POVWe soon got to the Salvador's house and we made our way inside the house. I kept to myself most of the time because Liam disappeared to lord knows where.Matt soon came to me and kept me company. We kept talking about different things. He is so caring, he kept getting me champagne and didn't even make me feel bored.I saw my father talking with different people. I saw him enjoy himself and laugh more.He was enjoying the attention. After a while, he moved away from everyone to go talk to Liam's parents. I saw his eyes crease with every laughter.He would sometimes gesture with his hands when he was trying to explain something and I saw how invested everyone was listening to his lies.I just shaked my head hoping that everything would be over soon. Silver was not too far from me, she would sometimes raise her brows at me to ask if I was okay but I'd just nod my head and tell her that I'm fine. "Are you good, Alice?" I heard Matt ask. "I'm fine." I answered him."It's just
Alice POVSoon, I finished my pasta and picked up the chocolate slice. I picked up a fuck and cut out of the cake. As soon as the cake entered my mouth, I closed my eyes and sighed as the sweetness of the cake burst on my tongue. I heard Matt chuckle beside me."Alice dear, you need to relax with the food. You don't want to upset your tummy now, do you?" I heard Matt's mom say beside me. A sassy reply danced on my tongue but I held myself and completely ignored her. I have had enough with my father and I didn't want to indulge her. Matt seemed to sense the tension in the air because the next thing he did was to lead his mother away from our table. When I tell you that this boy is kind-hearted, believe me. If that woman said another word about the way I was eating, I might have stabbed her in the eye.I looked around to see if Liam was anywhere near but no, he wasn't in sight.Son of a bitch! I'm just sitting down here all alone eating cake as if to console myself. I saw some peop
Alice's POVI looked into his eyes trying to see if he was being sincere and he actually wasn't joking. Unable to even argue with him, I agreed and followed him.We walked into the house and he took me to a room. I guess it was the spare room. The room was clean and I didn't waste time going to the bathroom leaving Liam alone.I stood in front of the mirror and started pulling out the pins in my hair. I was having a headache and I didn't have any strength in me to endure the pain any longer.I scrunch my face as the pin pulls in hair in the process of removing them. When I was done, I washed the makeup off my face and dried my face with a towel.The next problem was my dress. I'm not sure I can take it off myself because of the rope laced at the back.I made my way back into the room and Liam entered at the same time, carrying some clothes in his hands.He looked at me and smiled. I guess he went to get me something comfortable to wear."What if I was naked?" I asked him, because he j
Alice's POVThe next morning I woke up and found myself in the room. I looked at my phone to check the time and noticed that it was nine in the morning. The blinds were down which I was grateful for because if it wasn't I would have been feeling very grumpy. I swung my leg over the bed and made my way towards my bed to ease myself. When I was done, I opened the cabinet to see if there was a spare toothbrush. Luckily for me, I found one. I used it to brush my teeth before leaving the bathroom. I left my room and made my way downstairs. I made no sound as I descended the stairs. It's one of the traits I have learned over time. The smell of pancakes and bacon filled the air. I quickly increase my package feeling hungry instantly.I really hoped Liam would be the one making the food but to my great disappointment, it was the maid. Liam was sitting down, sipping black coffee, and going through some papers.I would really love to see what was beneath his shirt. The tight shirt on his
Alice's POV I sighed as I stared at my glass of wine. I downed the wine in the glass and stood up. I was pissed with the way things were going and I don't know why.As I stood up, Liam entered and I saw him look at me in confusion. He probably thought I would have gone by now.I am surprised at the fact that I'm still here. I looked at his clothes and saw that he was covered in blood. "Is that your blood?" I asked, trying to figure out if there was a wound on his body as he came closer. I don't know why I panicked when I saw the blood."No, it's not." "Good." I looked at his hands and saw that it was bruised. Seeing the swollen knuckles I knew it would hurt. "Do you have a first aid box here?" I asked. Immediately I said that I saw his guard bring one. He's the one Silver has a crush on. I saw the two of them look at themselves briefly and I couldn't help but smile. "You're from which country?" I asked him."Russia." He said, confirming my suspicion. I kept smiling. He looked d
Alice POVI woke up this morning feeling happy, perhaps it has something to do with a certain handsome man.I had one of the best sleep I have ever had in a while. Was getting too comfortable with Liam? Yes! Am I scared about it? Just a little.I took my bath quickly and made my way downstairs. Liam wasn't around which meant that he was out for work. I drank a cup of coffee and left the house.We made our way to the airport and I entered my jet. One of my informants told me that my father flew out of Russia last night and to be sincere, I didn't care.I only had to keep tabs on him because he's a very cunning man. He could be cooking something and I needed to be watchful.Soon we landed and I made my way to the car waiting for me. We were heading to a small town.It was a ghetto and I hate ghettos. Crazy things happen here and I hate getting involved.People around live in fear of what can happen at any time. Even as disgusting as it is, I have people working for me here. I sat down
Liam's POVI sat in my office staring at nothing in particular. I miss Alice. She has grown on me with the few days we spent together.I was a bit sad when I learned that she left for Russia that morning. I just want to have her to myself.I know she has a lot of work to do but I wish she was beside me instead.And fuck the way she commanded those guys to do their work was a fucking turn-on for me.I was so glad I married her. I know that no one in my Mafia will dare disrespect her.Apart from the fact that she's my wife, she is also a Don and with just that, she has earned her respect. I also have some businesses to work on. I could have asked someone to handle it but I don't trust anyone to do the job as perfectly as I would want it.Sometimes when I try to let people do it, they add more problems to the one on ground. Whenever I do dirty work, it makes me hunger more for power. I may not be perfect and as romantic as I should but sometimes I am scared that Alice would leave me.M
Liam's POVI was tired of listening to him lying, I brought out my gun swiftly and shot his daughter in the head killing her instantly.It was a smooth kill and the girl was even more deadly than her father so why waste my time keeping her alive?I watched as Sam stared in horror looking at the body of his dead daughter. He screamed and started crying but I don't fucking care. "So Sam, are you going to work for me now?" I asked him, knowing what his reaction would be. "Fuck you! You killed my daughter and now you expect me to work for you? Are you crazy?" He screamed.I just looked at him blankly and I signaled to Simone to show him the picture.His mother was in the picture and I saw his face drop immediately when he saw the picture. "I have people watching your mother, so what is it gonna be?" I asked, smirking at his helpless face.He looked at me nodding his head quickly. "Now this is what will happen, you will work as a spy for me in the FBI.You will report here weekly and if
