Sir, We have some news." One of Alexandros' men whispered to him.
Alexandros signalled the man to keep his mouth as he didn't want the news to get out, certainly not in
front of Ryan or the man would not think twice before pulling his gun out.
"Did you find out anything, yet, Alexandros?" Ryan demanded the look on his face enough to predict
that Ryan knight was on the verge of explosion not to mention he received Ethan's call for the fiftieth
time since yesterday.
A two-sided war, who wants that on their doorstep. The Vancouver crime family was strong. Stronger
than the other four families, Ethan King was strong too but with no heir to take over Ethan's territory
made him look weak and in the mafia world if one lost power to look dominant, he would sign his own
demise.
But of course, the man always stated his cruelty once in a while just to show everyone that the lion
might be getting old but he was still the King. His man still trusts him and followed his rule blindly, he
was a vicious man, one Ryan would rather accept as a friend rather than a foe.
It was only because of him, Ryan tried to arrange a marriage with Aurora when he came to know that
she was Ethan King's daughter because in the Mafia, showing respect earns you gold coins but one
sign of disrespect can earn you bullets, right between the eyes.
Alexandros eyes the man who just entered inside Liam's office. "Still no news boss." He informed Ryan
and he let out an irritated screech.
Before the man could even blink, Ryan's gun was out and he was shot dead."Useless fellow!" He
groaned, turned towards Alexandros.
"People always irritate me with their uselessness."
Alexandros nodded with a grin. "You killing your own man certainly is not going to help you anymore,
Ryan. You need your man alive for them to be useful or you would be without any subjects to follow
your rule."
Ryan shook his head. "I am still the boss of Vancouver's and I don't like it when I sniff someone hiding
things from me," staring into his eyes, clearly stating that he knew Alexandros was hiding something.
Alexandros raised a brow and this time a chuckle left his throat. " You forgot one thing, Ryan. You rule
over Vancouver's not me. I don't come under your rule because I made the rules for myself."
By the look in his eyes, Ryan knew two things. One, Alexandros might not want to get tied with the
Mafia but the Mafia runs in his veins. After all he was the brother of Russian Pakhan who ruled over
St.Petersburg and second, Alexandros couldn't be trusted, the twitch in his eyes clearly screamed that
he knew something.
What? Ryan has yet to find out!
Meanwhile, Aurora poked Liam's hand one more time and he was a second away from snapping at her
but of course, the girl didn't take anything seriously now. If Liam scolds her, she sighed dramatically,
patted onto his shoulder and nodded, as if she knew something about him which he didn't and Hell! It
irked Liam. To the core.
"Liam, you are always quiet? Why? Don't you crave talking to someone? I mean look at you, you could
live without uttering a single word from your mouth, for days. I really don't know how you manage that."
She muttered.
Liam left a deep, anguished sigh. "Because I don't like wasting my words on anyone, Mrs Knight."
Aurora once again pinched her lips into a thin line. "Don't forget about our bet, Liam. If you lose you will
quit calling me that. Because till now I thought it was okay, we are friends and obviously, alone on this
island I took it as fun but not anymore. I know you are going to lose the bet because it's not in your
hand to call someone here to take us back to the cruise. So, I would rather let you have the fun for one
more day because obviously now that we are friends I like this playful side of yours and enjoyed our
sweet little banters too but from tomorrow you will not call me Mrs Knight anymore."
Liam cocked a brow in challenge. "Hm! What if I win, wife? What if luck turned out to be on my side and
someone might find us here, take us back to the cruise and I win your challenge, what then? Because I
wont allow you to back out from the rules of our bet. If we landed on that cruise tomorrow," Liam got
near her face, gazed at her soft blue eyes and said: "I am a man of my word, wife, you will be mine
when I win the bet."
He went near her ear and whispered "Mine to enjoy this beautiful body, mine to pleasure it and mine to Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
ravish it." He pressed on the last part in such a dark tone that goosebumps erupted on Aurora's body.
She gulped. The dark look in his eyes and the viciousness in his voice made Aurora once again
remember how cruel he was when he spanked her on the first day on this very island.
But again she ignored the darkness and reminded herself that Liam was her friend and he was just
kidding, only her mind tried to alert her of something else. Something dangerous!
