Chapter 14: A run in a Towel
DEREK’S P. O. V
I checked my wristwatch and it was 3 PM already, I diverted my gaze toward my bunny who was sleeping like a newborn
Her long lashes rested perfectly on her cheeks with her pouty lips which made her look so beautiful…
_Derek! Don’t let her mess with your head and mind_
But what are you doing to me, bunny? For the first time in years, the feelings I had buried deep into my heart have awakened all because of this lady.
_This is a sign that I’m turning into a weakly. My heart is growing weak for her, next she will start controlling me. _
Never! I hastily moved away from her like a burning fire, as my gaze turned frigid. People often tagged me as a demon, a son of the devil who doesn’t have a heart and that title had been honored for years.
My presence alone made people, both young and old tremble and shudder in fear. My voice growled loudly whenever my rules were tempered and my cold gaze forced everyone down to their knees because I’m Mob Derek; the boss of all bosses.
I wouldn’t be among those men, women wrapped around their fingers with pride. If she tried that with me? I will ruin her!
_Are you perhaps giving her a chance? These might be love! _
Fuck, love!! My mind is already going wild and I don’t like where It’s driving at, and I don’t like these feelings either. I had to do something about these.
I strode away from the bed and walked into the bathroom to run a quick bath because my body was drenched with sweat. I came out of the bathroom with my white robe coat tied around my body, and I grabbed my phone from the side bed drawer and made for the door.
I heard her whine, followed by a loud yawn which she tiredly trimmed her mouth with her hand, and her eyes were still shut.
I veered around and my gaze landed on her exposed foot and I wondered why it was wrapped with a white fabric and was little bit stained with blood.
_That is none of my business, right? I shouldn’t be caring for her. _
I quickly turned and began walking away, suddenly I halted again but this time, I strode toward her and sat beside her on the bed.
_What am I doing? _
I gently rested her wounded foot on my lap and examined it closely as curiosity consumed me. I hastily began to unwrap the white fabric on her foot and my gaze suddenly landed on the deep hole on her toe, and fresh blood glossy around its opening.
_Gun shot? _
My fingers tightened into a fist as my veins were visible on my hands, the moment I recalled those deep and ugly scars on her body.
_whosoever that done these to you must pay. I will make them beg for death which they will never get. I will make them feel miserable. I will make them eat their flesh and force their blood down their throat. I will be like a shield over you and I will protect you. _
I stood up from the bed hovered over and locked my lips with hers, sailing my promise with a kiss. I suddenly got carried away by her addictive lips, which I never knew when my hand crawled up to her chest and grabbed her peanut breast.
A soft moan escaped her lips the moment my palm came in contact with her breast, which prompted her to hauled more closer to me, as she moved her lips along with mine, sucking on my tongue. But the Vibration of my phone interrupted the moment.
“Your lunch is served, boss.” Doven’s voice boomed from the other end the moment I placed the phone on my ear, moving away from her.
“Get my fork well-sharpened, it has been a long while since I used it. And don’t forget to keep them entertained till I get there.” My lips curved into a smirk, and I made my way to the door as I spoke.
I strode down the stairs and stepped into my elevator which took me down to the fifth floor of my club within 5 seconds right inside my butcher room.
As expected, I saw the two morons tied up on a chair with both hands bonded behind their backs with their bodies covered with blood, as they kept grunting in pain inflicted on them by Doven.
But then I wasn’t satisfied with what I saw. Because if Devon had done a great job, they should’ve been dead by now.
“Matton and Metton.” I taunted, grasping my hands behind my back. They both raised their gaze in my direction and fear was visible in their eyes.
They are non-identical twins and they have been working under me for 5 years now. They Knew all my rules but yet they chose to disobey me. They knew the lengths I would go to if my rules were tempered just to serve as a lesson to others.
They all stared at me looking lost, I guessed they might be wondering what they had done wrong to deserve these.
“B-boss, what have we done.” Metton sputtered and spitted out a mouth full of blood to the floor.
I chuckled dryly and swirled around him, with my hands grasped behind me. I halted right at his back and raise my hand and struck him so hard on his ass, “Soft ass you’ve got here, bitch!” I reminded him of his words and his eyes widened in shock.
I guessed he never knew I would find out about how they harassed my bunny.
I veered toward Matton and flashed him a smile which was replaced with a hard glare as my forehead knitted. “You still want to know what you did wrong?” I began sauntering toward him. Expectedly he was peeing on his body, as he shivered in fear and pleaded with his eyes.
“Bo—–”
My hand flew so fast through the air and landed so mightly on his side cheek, which made two of his teeth fall out right In front of me. “So firm and curvy, damn sexy.” I taunted with a smirk.
“Boss… I’m sorry. It won’t happen again, I promise.” He pleaded with his head bowed.
“Of course, I will make sure it doesn’t happen again,” I smirked wide when he raised his gaze to meet mine, and his face was mixed with his blood and tears.
“Boss.” He whispered as tears wouldn’t stop streaming down his jaws.
I gaze into his eyes with a void of expression and emotion, because I don’t give a fuck about anybody’s feelings. “Dovon, Make their death slow and painful. Bring me their heads” I commanded In a deep and cold voice.
They all fell on their knees and their head bowed, “Boss!!!” They screamed out with heavy hearts, while I made my way to the elevator.

MONALISA’S P. O. V
My eyes flew open, as I gazed around the room and I wondered where I was. I tried to move my hands but It felt as if all my muscles were smashed.
I never gave up, as I used all my might and raised my upper body from the bed after much trouble. Suddenly yesterday’s incident crashed into my head and my cheek began to turn red.
_Are my blushing? _Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
I never missed noticing how relaxed my mind and soul were. He felt so good that I never wished for it to ever stop. His kisses, his magic touch, and his dirty words! Gosh! I’m dripping wet already.
_Can you face him if you see him now? _
My gaze searched around the room, wondering where he had gone too, but I was kind of happy because I was far gone before he could get here.
I quickly stood up naked from the bed and placed my foot on the floor but then I noticed a black fabric wrapped around my wounded foot instead of white.
_He took care of my wound? _
My cheeks heated more, and suddenly my gaze landed on the wall clock and I was stunned at what I saw. It was already 6 PM and I never knew that I slept that long.
_Candy! Candy! _
My mind drifted back to Candy and I quickly jumped up and rushed into the bathroom and grabbed any towel my hands could lean upon and dashed out of the room, without minding I was tieing a towel around my body.
I’m in deep shit now, I don’t even know where her house is located, and I knew she might have left the club before morning because of her son.
I ran down the stairs like a psychopath patient who ran out of the mental hospital. All gazes were on me the moment I got down the stairs but I don’t fucking care, and they might think that I had gone crazy for me to be wrapped in a towel running around the whole building.
I successfully got outside the building and made countless efforts to stop a taxi but they all kept looking at me as if I had nuts which I perfectly understood because I was on a towel and the worst of it all was that I left my phone at home.
_How will I get home now? I don’t want to encounter those thugs or even set my eyes on Derek ever again. I have to leave here as soon as possible but how? _
