“, stop man you’re going to kill him, this isn’t the place we want to do that.”
I hear Noah say but my rage will not subside. He hit her, he hurt her and made her bleed. The least I can do is make him bleed right? Who cared if I killed him, that was the objective anyway, wasn’t it?
I hear the boys telling me to stop but I only see red, finally Noah pulls me off and Liam checks on that piece of shit.
“He’s alive, what should we do?”
I look at them both.
“Take him to the warehouse right now. I will meet the both of you there.”
I tell them and I can’t think straight, I have to see her, I have to feel her to make sure she is ok. I leave them behind with his limp body and get on my bike.
I drive faster than I should just to see her. I pull up to her house and rush to the door. I knock on it and get no answer. I knock on it again and this time Liz opens the door, but she doesn’t look shocked or stunned. She opens the door all the way and walks out.
“Is it done?”
She asks me and suddenly the truth comes crashing together.
“You? Do you work for my father?”
I ask her. I mean it would make sense; she wasn’t shocked or surprised at any of this or of the state I was in.
“No, you moron. I work for the Corales Corporation, Maxwell has always been a lose end. Honestly, , who do you think sent him to your father in the first place.”
She says to me, and I am stunned to stunned for words to even come out.
“Lilly doesn’t know, before her dad passed away, he asked us to watch her. She is my best friend and sole Heir to the Corales Corp. Once she turns twenty-five the Corporation goes to her as her father wished. We have to ensure her safety.”
She says and looks at me up and down.
“I wonder how she would react when she finds out you are trying to kill her?”
Just like that my world came crashing down. Everything I thought I knew wasn’t true at all.
“You? You’re an extractor?”
I asked her in disbelief, and she smiled a sly smile.
“Of course, Malith, I know everything about you. Once I knew you were going out with Lilly, I had to do my research. Being twenty-eight and in line for your father’s company I got a lot of intel on you.”
She says walking up to me.
“Your father wants Maxwell dead, that's fine, so do we. But you will not lay a finger on Lillian. We will watch every move and every step you take. If you hurt, her in the slightest-”
I cut her off.
“I Think I’m in love with her Elizabeth.”
It just flew out; I didn’t even think about it. Elizabeth looked taken aback.
“I am in love with her, and I can’t bring myself to hurt her. I-I tried to distance myself but I couldn’t bring myself to when she-”
she cuts me off.
“When she looks at you with her big doe eyes?”
I look at her and I nod. Elizabeth sighs and walks to the porch swing. She sits down and I walk to her.
“Ok, so what's your plan then? We already know your father wants them both dead. Can he not be reasoned with?”
She asked me and I shook my head.
“When he wants someone dead, he wants them dead no ifs and or buts.”
I tell her through a sigh. She looks up and exhales.
“This party you have her going to, is it a set up?” She asks me and I look into the distance.
“I don’t know, it’s been an event for the charity gala for a while, but I don’t know what my father’s motive is. I don’t know what he is thinking half the time.”
I tell her as I rub my face.
“All I know is he wanted me to invite her and y’all to it.”
I look her in her eyes and see the calculations running in her mind.
“Ok, so we go, act like everything is normal. We will protect her at all costs.”
I nod.
“Even if it cost me my life, I will die for her.”
I tell her and she nods.
“I know you would, .”
She stands up and starts to walk into the house but before she opens the door, she turns to me.
“Lillian is an amazing girl, don’t hurt her, ok? Remember I know 205 ways to kill someone and make it look like an accident.”
I smirk at her.
“Don’t worry I know 206 ways.”
I laugh as she opens the door.
“I’ll tell her you stopped by and will come by in the morning.”
She's about to close the door when she says.
“?”
I look at her.
“Yeah?”
“Finish the job. Make him suffer for hurting our girl.”
She tells me with a dark ominous look in her eyes.
“Don’t worry I don’t plan on going easy on him.” With that she nods and closes the door. I pull out my phone and call Noah.
“Hey, we just got here.”
I hear Maxwell groaning in the background.
“Good, I’m on my way.”
I hang up the phone and head to their location. Don’t worry Lillypad I’ll make him hurt just as much as he hurt you.
Lillian
“Hey, who was at the door?”
I asked Liz as I got out of the shower. After today's event a long hot shower was much needed.
“It was , he wanted to make sure you were ok, I told him you were in the shower. He said he will come by tomorrow and take you out.”
She tells me and I nod. After seeing what had unfolded today, I was worried about him. But knowing he came by means everything was ok, right?
“Honestly it was kind of hot the way he beat the shit out of Maxwell.”
Mary says and me and Liz say her name in unison.
“What? You cannot tell me that when he came to your rescue it wasn’t the hottest thing you saw. Especially when he wouldn't stop, oh.”
She says as she fans herself with her hand. I can’t help but roll my eyes and smirk.
“So, anyway Lilly, tell us everything!”
I look at Liz and she smirks. I start to blush and tell them everything that happened in the cave. How he took me right there and made it so special. How I felt when I was dominating him and how he begged. Mary squealed and Elizabeth laughed.
“For such a tough man he sure is your bitch huh Lills?”
I laugh with her, but truthfully, I love his weak side. It empowers me. We continued to talk all night.
“So, you think Maxwell is ok?”
Mary asked me and Elizabeth shot her a look, I patted her shoulder telling her it was ok. That I’m ok.
“Honestly Mare, was hitting pretty hard, I wouldn’t be surprised if he has a broken nose or even if his entire face is fucked and he needs a botched plastic surgery.”
I tell them as I recall the fight. I smelt so much blood and could hear the bones in Maxwell's face crunching. was so upset; he was upset for me.
My heart fluttered at the thought of him protecting me.
“So, what are we going to wear to this Gala? I think Liam said it was a Masquerade?”
Mary says to me, and I look over at her.
“Wait, the boys asked y’all already?”
I asked them and they both nodded. I cross my arms and pout.
“I wanted to be the one to tell you guys!”
I tell them and they laugh.
“Oh, come on Lills, it’s fine, but seriously you have nothing to wear!”
Elizabeth says and I groan.
“ said he would take me to find a dress.”
I tell them and they both go wide-eyed.
“Did he really?”
Mary gasps and Elizabeth rubs her forehead.
“Relax guys it’s not like he asked me to marry him or anything.”
I smirk at them. They both end up squealing and laughing with me. I can’t help but think about and hope he is ok.
Honestly, I wish I could have seen him, so I know he was ok. I wanted to stop him, but I couldn't because I wasn't strong enough. I hope he ices his hand.
