The Endgame (book 4 of The Arrangement Series) Chapter 42- Deal With The Devil And 43- Enemy Of My Enemy
Amber was suddenly more afraid than she’d been down in The Rabbit Hole.“Grayson? Where are we? What is this place?” she asked.But before Grayson could answer, a door in front of them opened. Another man, though younger, but no less dangerous walked out. He already had a coldness in his eyes though he couldn’t be more than eighteen. This man had never been a child, or not one for very long.“He is ready to see you now. Bring the girl. He wishes to meet her.”His accent was not as thick. He’d likely been born here or moved to the city while he was still fairly young.Grayson nodded, “Thank you. And I meant no disrespect. I’m honored he agreed to meet with me.”“As you should be. He does not grant audiences to most. His time is very important.”The man moved aside so Amber and Grayson could get past. She took a deep breath as she followed Grayson into the room. She couldn’t see the king of this underground empire right away, as her lover’s broad back blocked her view.The billionaire w
The Endgame (book 4 of The Arrangement Series) Chapter-44 Are You Serious? Chapter 45- I Hope It Was Worth It
She let out a deep breath and Grayson noticed her trying to cut him with her hard gaze.“Are you seriously suggesting what I think you are suggesting?” Amber demanded, “I don’t even know who you are right now.”Grayson merely sighed at her, as if she was an impertinent child and he was irritated by her interruption. By her trying to bring some fucking decency and morality back into the room. He’d lost his fucking mind for sure. This was not the way. This was not justice. It was vengeance.“And what does Van Tessin love most?” asked Ambrov.Grayson eye’s held Amber’s as he began to speak, “Money,” his eyes turned back to Ambrov, “Hugo love’s money above all else. If he loses it, it will destroy him. That’s the way to bring about his downfall. Destroy it from within by bankrupting him. Break down those contracts. Block new ones. Hold the monopoly on the market for his most prosperous goods. I know you are more than capable of making this happen Mr. Ambrov.”Amber sighed internally. At l
The Endgame (book 4 of The Arrangement Series) Chapter 46- I may not like you right now brother, but I will always love you
Grayson knocked on the bathroom door once to check on Amberleigh. She sent him away requesting to be left alone. A short time later, the billionaire didn’t even attempt to get back into bed with her and Leo, instead placing himself at the other side of the warehouse in her school work space. It was for the best as she certainly wasn’t up for cuddling with her baby daddy right now.Amber doubted she’d be able to fall asleep even after she snuggled up against Leo’s back. Her chef stirred and turned until he was facing her. She was greeted by a wide, sleepy smile. She found one for him somehow and snuggled in closer, wrapping her arm around his waist and burying her face into his bare chest. Safe and steady and warm Leo. While Grayson was often reckless and unstable and cold. Leo had always been the safer choice.“Good morning, Love. How’d you sleep?” he asked with a yawn.“I’ve slept better,” she replied honestly.“Bad dream?”He kissed between her eyes as if to kiss away the worry line
The Endgame (book 4 of The Arrangement Series) Chapter 47- Nothing Left To Say
Hostility, resentment, and unresolved feelings weren’t the only things waiting for Amberleigh back at the penthouse. Mr. Duvall, she assumed had placed their mail in Leo’s room. That was not odd in itself, but what was odd, was that Amber had gotten a letter at the penthouse. Few people knew she had resided there, and all her mail usually went to a P.O. box.At the penthouse, she’d gotten a random postcard once from Ebony as a joke, but that had been it. This time was different, it felt different as Amber looked at the cardboard envelope handwritten to her with no return address. But it didn’t have enough weight to it to be like a bomb or anything. At least she hoped anyway. Her imagination ran away with her, and she imagined getting anthrax or something from this mysterious letter from sender unknown.Leo was puttering around the room unpacking, being un-Leo like in his quietness. Still an after effect of the revelation and fight with his best friend. Not once did he make a joke or s
The Endgame (book 4 of The Arrangement Series) Chapter 48- Everything Is Falling Apart
Amberleigh had cried herself to sleep in Leo’s arms that morning. When she woke up, puffy eyed, she cried some more. Every time she believed she had a handle on her tears, they seemed to come upon her again. Sometimes they crept upon her softly with seemingly little explanation and thoughts of sadness. Sometimes they came on violently with thoughts of anger. Needless to say, after an exhausted day of tears, Amber was in no mood to accompany Leo to the annual Godwin Foundation scholarship dinner that night.The last place she wanted to be was staring at Grayson and Courtney pretending to be a happy couple from across the table. To add salt to her wounds, she’d also be forced to play nice to Hugo Van Tessin, to face that evil bastard for the first time. And Daddy Godwin, another man she cared little for would also be in attendance. It seemed almost more than she could handle, especially in her current state of mind. She was a liability tonight and doubted all the concealer in the world
The Endgame (book 4 of The Arrangement Series) Chapter 49- Numb
Amberleigh felt like she was intruding on what should have been a private moment between Leo and Elle. It had been five months since Leo had last seen the woman he’d once planned on spending his life with. Circumstances had pulled them apart, but had fate now brought them back together again? Was this the universe’s way of telling them all they had it all wrong? That Leo and Elle were destined to be together, and Amber was destined to be alone.Amber had once thought she’d be forever parted from Grayson, then a baby in her belly, and a life changing phone call had put him back into her life. But now he’d chosen to walk away from her once again. But watching Elle and Leo just gaze at each other with so many emotions on their faces, only helped Amber realize, that neither of them had walked away from each other in any ways that mattered. In any ways but the physical. Physical distance was often less painful than emotional.Elle and Leo looked like those people who could go a month witho
The Endgame (book 4 of The Arrangement Series) Chapter 50- Done
Luckily, Leo had saved the heavy topic of conversation for the next morning. Not that Amber had given him much choice in the matter as she had pretended to be asleep when he finally crawled into bed beside her that night. The chef laid it on a bit thick in the morning though, when she’d awoken to breakfast in bed and then a foot massage.“What’s all this for?” Amber asked as she speared a piece of sausage with her fork.“Because I love you. And a queen deserves to be pampered.”The scent of vanilla filled the room as Leo squirted some on his hands to rub into her feet. It felt divine. The food tasted wonderful as she hadn’t realized how hungry she’d been until the first bite hit her tongue. She’d skipped dinner last night after all.She snorted, “Don’t get me wrong, I like it. But you didn’t have to do all this babe. I told you last night on the phone I was fine with you spending time at the hospital.”“With Elle there. I think we should get our feelings out in the open Love. I didn’t
The Endgame (book 4 of The Arrangement Series) Prologue
Amberleigh Dubois knew the chill in the room wasn’t the only reason for her goosebumps. On her right sat the father of her daughter, Grayson Godwin and on the left, sat his best friend since preschool Leo Clemonte. Both of the men whom Amber loved with all her heart, were in rapt attention to the doctor sitting in the chair across from them. But Amber had zoned out, she had to focus on something else to hold it all together. The sleeping baby swaddled in a sling against her chest was a nice distraction. Amber peered down at her daughter who had a way of making the world seem like not such a harsh place by just one look at her angelic face. With a full belly, clean diaper, and perfect pursed rosebud lips, the little princess slept blissfully unaware. Amber had her suspicions her daughter was the only one in that cold room who’d gotten any sleep last night. Amber smoothed down a tuft of silky brown hair on her daughter’s head. She loved the feel of it on her fingertips, loved everythi
