Chapter 39
Leigh-Ann’s POV
Finally, we arrived back home and I got out of the car immediately. I’ve not been myself since yesterday and was kind of glad Stiles didn’t say any more words after the first time.
In case you’re wondering, it’s close to a week and I don’t think I’m ready to say a word to him. At some point, I thought of why I reacted so badly but I can’t seem to figure it out.
Looks like I was just mad that he was poking into my problems which I didn’t like. Since I lost my parents, I’ve learned to live my life on my own without giving space to anyone. I’m just afraid they might come into my life and walk out just like my parents did.

But that was the least of my problems at the moment. The necklace was my greatest problem and I wished I could solve it any sooner but who was I kidding though?
I rushed into my room shaking visibly and yelled once I saw the necklace on my bed. Gosh, it scared the hell out of me. Who could ever imagine that a small piece of the necklace will get me into so much trouble?
Kyler said If I gave him the necklace he’ll let me go but at that moment, I wasn’t with the necklace. With the way he had pinned me to the wall, I knew he was so bent on getting it from me and I only had to act that way cause I wanted to escape his grip.
No guy has ever laid hands on me and I wasn’t gonna let that happen cause I served one of the Brothers. I needed to return the necklace as soon as possible but how?
Damn, I’m in so much trouble.

The Brothers were having family time and as Kael’s maid, I had to be there but trust me being here was like hell.
Kael had two beautiful girls with him while Kenver was with Tess, Whatever. She had no shame. Just a month ago, she was with Kael, and the next, she’s with Kenver.
Kash was with Dulga and I noticed she kept on smiling at me. To tell you, I’ve been wondering who she is.
Kyler was just himself and just mere looking at him sent sizzles down my spine. He just stood at the other end of the court smoking from his pipe and I felt relieved he wasn’t looking out for me.
After serving Kael a glass of wine along with the two girls, I walked off and stood under a shade. Well, I wasn’t just standing there, I was hiding. I felt so restless and kept checking on the necklace which was inside my pocket. How do I give it back without having to face him?
I needed a perfect distraction and I think I got one which was Kael. I just couldn’t take my eyes off him kissing the two ladies.
Humph! What does it feel like huh? I looked around for Tess and smirked once I found her. She has been stealing glances too, poor baby. I laughed inwardly but then, I didn’t even notice that Kael had pulled off from the kiss and was looking at me.
I looked off immediately and covered the side of my face with my hand. Oh crap, I hope he doesn’t get mad. He’s been ghosting me for some time now and I was just surprised when he ordered me to join Stiles so he could get some work done.
“Hey!” Kash called up from behind, startling me. Jeez, everything just seemed to get me worked up cause I jumped when I heard him. I looked over at where Kyler stood and heaved when I noticed he was still there.
I felt at peace knowing that he was standing somewhere I could see him instead of stalking me.
“You could use some fun today. I talked to Kael”
“Um… no… I… I don’t want to, I’m fine standing behind”
“Oh, come on. Don’t be such a standing ass. Join us” He insisted and chuckled lightly. Before I could argue any further, he held my hand and dragged me with him. I tried protesting but he wouldn’t leave me. What is he doing?
“Someone is up for swimming” He enthused and called out to one of the maids “Get her a sexy bath suite, let’s see what she’s made of”
I gulped hard and lowered my head, my heart beating faster than usual. No, I was hiding. Couldn’t he have left me alone?
“She’s a junkyard, made of smelling disgusting shits” Kenver chipped in, making everyone laugh. Oh yeah, why wouldn’t they? Tess laughed louder.
The maids brought the suites and I had no choice but to wear them. I looked around for Kyler but he was no more. That alone got me so terrified. Where the hell did he go?
I felt so nervous wearing the bath suit. It only felt like a piece of rags that exposed my body. My curves, my ass, my cleavages, damn!
“Oh, there she is,” Tess said with a smirk as she approached me from behind. Crap, I had almost jumped out of my skin thinking it was someone else.
Can everyone stop being creepy for a moment? I could lose my mind.
“Oh, she looks cute, jeez, she’s hot” She added but then she kept a mean face, her eyes darkened but who cared? I think I’ve seen this side of her plenty of times so nothing was new.
I made to walk off but she grabbed me from behind. “Don’t you dare try to walk out of my you asshole”
I looked at her for some time then I withdrew my hand from her grip. “You don’t get to tell me what to do, Tess. Last I checked, you weren’t my boss or his minion”Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
“How dare you…” She huffed and raised her hand to hit me but I held it in mid-air. Not this time sweety.
“Whoever told you I was your toy that you could smack out any time?” I asked and watched her mouth drop in surprise “I only give you that permission to touch me when I want so if I were you, I wouldn’t misinterpret it”
I released her hand roughly and then walked off. She better get that into her thick skull.
