CHAPTER 194
The sky above the mansion was starting to get much darker, and the cloud-like whirlpool in the sky seemed to just keep folding in on itself until the shadows came down into the yard looking like a part of the place was just night. The dogs were still barking like mad, and Amanda felt goosebumps right above her skin. She felt like she could die. All of a sudden, out of that darkness that came to the floor, a figure came forward. It was Viktor. His boots hit the ground and the force of him destroyed the large gates, throwing it backwards. He walked in like he owned the place, his coat was ripped in a lot of places, and he still had the blood stains from the fight in the woods, but his face carried that same smirk that he always had. “Devin.” He drawled. “Long time since our last fight.” Devin didn’t move. “You’re on my property, Viktor. That’s a bad move, you of all people should know better.” Viktor’s eyes slid past him, and that was when he and Amanda locked eyes instan
CHAPTER 192
192. The sun was beginning to go down when Devin finally got in as Dreykov drove through the iron gates of his mansion. The sky was painted with beautiful reds and oranges, and everything looked so beautiful and at peace. His jacket was half-unzipped, and his boots stomped heavily on the polished tiles as he walked inside. Petra stood at the edge of the hallway, her arms folded, keeping her face tight. "You're late." She said immediately. "I was handling stuff, I'm sorry." Devin replied flatly. "What happened? Why are you outside?" Petra sighed, moving closer to him. "A woman came here. She was crying, and she seemed scared out of her fucking mind." "Okay, who was it?" Devin asked. Petra took in a deep breath. "Your ex, Amanda." Devin's brow furrowed. "Amanda?" "She mentioned a name. Viktor." The moment she said it, Devin froze. The air around him turned cold. "She said that Viktor killed someone. A man called Luke, I think." Devin's eyes narrowed.
Chapter 191
191. Amanda ran as quickly as her legs could carry her through the woods, with all the forest branches scratching her skin and thorns that seemed to pop out of nowhere tearing through her jeans. Her heart wouldn't stop pounding. Her body ached, and her knees were bleeding. It felt like at any moment she was just going to drop dead. But she couldn't stop, because that was true. If Viktor just caught sight of her, she could drop dead at any moment, and that was one thing she couldn't let happen. She had just watched Luther die right in front of her. Viktor stabbed him, laughed about it, and for all she knew he probably even drank his blood. The image of Luther being murdered had been burned deep into her mind, and it played again and again like a CD stuck on repeat. She reached the edge of the trees and that was when she realised that she had seen this path before! She continued to run with all her might. If she was right she would get to Devin's abode! As she ran, she saw the ga
Chapter 190
It had only been two days since Devin ambushed Viktor, and Amanda had been on her own since then. She didn't even let Viktor know that she had seen the whole thing until he vanished. All she did was act like she had never been there, and then went back to her own home. She sat holding a warm cup of coffee with her blanket around her, enjoying the heat. Chilly days all but bothered her, but she still had a pressing issue on her mind. "What if Devin finds out and comes after me?" She asked aloud, unable to hide her worry. That was when it hit her. Luther! But he hadn't been raking her calls. Before all this, as toxic as he was, he was always there for her. She got her phone out, trying her luck for the last time. Luther's phone rang on for almost a minute. She had given up hope when he finally picked the call. "Amanda." "Luther! I-I can't believe you picked my call." She was unable to keep the surprise out of her voice. "I was so close to not picking it, trust me." He s
Chapter 189
Amanda’s heart thudded as Victor’s car rolled to a stop at the dimly lit cabin on the outskirts of the city. The air smelled of pine and cold mist, but inside, the tension was stifling.Victor stepped out first, circling the hood to open her door with that same forced smile he’d worn since they left the city.“Come on, Amanda. You’ll love this place,” he coaxed, voice dipped in false sweetness.Inside the cabin, soft light flickered from a single lamp. Plush rugs, a fireplace — but the warmth was all facade. Amanda felt the hair on her neck rise as Victor’s hand brushed the small of her back, guiding her in.When he turned to face her, there was hunger in his eyes — not the kind that craved food.He cupped her face, thumb stroking her cheek. “You know, you’ve been so distant lately. We should fix that.”She stiffened. “Victor… don’t.”His hand dropped, but the smile didn’t fade. Instead, it twitched at the corners — straining to stay in place as his jaw worked.“Don’t?” He let out a l
Chapter 188
The rain was falling like angry needles from the sky. Amanda was crouched behind a pile of cracked cement blocks and broken steel pipes, barely breathing as she peeked toward the old glass plant. She’d followed Viktor here earlier, against her better judgment, and now she was beginning to regret it. Far in the distance, she had see them. Cars, so many of them approaching, and they looked quite dangerous, to say in the least. There were four of them, matte black, and no headlights on. They looked like ghosts in the rain as they came to a stop. Then the doors opened, and armed men got out, looking like a war set. Her eyes widened when the last cars opened. “Shit!” She whispered. What was it with her and getting involved with dangerous men? She knew that face. Devin Stone. Dressed in all black, and looking like he was about to rip the fucking world apart. Behind him, stood Dreykov, and he looked just as cold, and just as dangerous. His men looked like mercenaries straigh
