Alpha King of Water

THE THIRD SON OF MAFIA BOSS

ZARYA’S POV

I inhaled deeply and exhaled hardly as I raised my hand and knocked on the door at Caspian’s condo. It took him a bit longer before he opened the door.

“Oh, sorry. I’m having my bath.”

My two eyebrows raised up when my eyes landed on him. His hair was wet, the water was dropping from the edge of his hair to his neck and shoulder. His full-pack abs were unimaginably in front of me.

Does this man don’t know manners? He should put on clothes before he faced the visitors.

“You seem…” He looked from my feet to my belly to my face. “Decent? Are you the woman I am waiting for?” He turned his back on me. “Come in.” He grabbed his phone from the table and called someone. “Hello? I want a woman who has big boobs and wears sexy clothes… Ah, okay?” He looked back at me, his forehead was wrinkled. “She’s on the way? I thought she’s here.” He tapped the end button before he sat on the couch.

“I thought you were the girl I’m waiting for.” He brushed his hair through the use of his fingers. “What do you need?”

“Your hand is wet.” I gave him a big smile. “I’m Zarry, Bram’s secretary.”

“Then?”

“I’ve come to give this.” I placed the brown envelope on the glass center table that was black in color.

“And then?”

“That’s all.”

The grin on his lips was formed. “You’re his secretary? You want money?”

“Oh, no, sir.” I averted my look at him. “I’m good.”

He got his wallet on the table and gave me a card. “My calling card. Just drop me a message you can come here if my schedule is not tied up.” His smirk had a spark of lust.

I nodded my head slightly. I managed not to have a sharp look at him. This bastard was the same as his friend.

“What’s the content?” He held the brown envelope. “You haven’t read it, have you?”

I moved my head from left to right. “No, Sir.”

He ripped the brown envelope. He did not say anything, so I stayed a bit longer. He had no care if I would see what was inside of it. My mouth was barely open when I saw what was it. Pictures of women.

I breathe in and out as my chest became suffocated. There were women kidnapped, asking Ransome for the parents, but eventually, they would die. The bloody women, ripped and broken. The next pictures were of men who were killed, too.

“This is Scorpion’s daughter. I murdered her because she was crying when I took her to the bed. I hate someone saying no to me.” His eyes went to me. His hands were playing with the brown envelope. “You know the content, aren’t you?”

“No, Sir, really.” I managed to have a thick voice. Hali trained me to talk with confidence, not stammering. That would only show fear and made the enemy think that I was fragile.

“Now, you know…” He stood up. I forced myself not to run or fight either, as long as his hand was not touching my skin, it was not a red alert. I looked down at my watch. If I tapped the button at the center of this, Hali, Froy, and Khal would automatically come to me.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“What should I do?” He gave me small smile. His eyes were full of darkness and bad intention. He sat next to me, smirking that had never left his lips. “Are you a virgin?”

I breathed in and out, getting all the courage, eliminating the fear. His tone was not rude, but the threats could be heard.

Should I say no? Or yes?

Hali’s words came into my mind. I should lie, everything about me was just a composed story.

“Yes.” I whispered, enough to be heard by him.

“Good.” He was about to touch me when his phone rang. I let out a sigh of relief.

“Don’t touch my secretary. I need her. I have plenty of work to do. Send her here immediately once you received the envelope.” I heard Bram’s voice.

I realized that Bram was showing goodness to me because I was a good listener and nice when it came to following directions. He was not stressed when he needed someone to finish the business.

“Then, don’t send a woman to me. Damn it!”

“I have no one to trust. She’s my secretary and she knows she’ll be dead once she spells out anything about the company. Send her to me now!” Bram’s loud voice, shouted at the phone, from the other line.

“Fine, Fucker!” Caspian screamed back at him. He titled his head, observing my feature. “You’re quite interested.”

I moved my head down. “I’m going, Sir.”

“See you again.” The smirk was once again traced on his lips. That was creepy, it felt like he was ripping my clothes in just a stare.

I could not judge the three of them with just a stare. Bram Jenkins was a silent type, but when he was mad, he would pull the trigger without hesitation. Trace Hendrix was unpredictable, he threatened me in just a first meet. I was just curious why Bram was telling me to him. He knew me, and that was creeping me out. I should be careful. Little by little, I was discovering things about them. Their lives were deeper than their attitudes and features. Good thing, Bram developed trust with me. Caspian Fatlin, his looks, just a stare, I could conclude that he was one of the brutal. He told me about a Scorpion, a woman, and his dislikes.

I am harmed.

When I entered the elevator, my knee was trembling in fear. My eyes were watering.

Was this fortunate? I survived facing Caspian.

I was about to tap the ground floor button when someone held my hand. My eyes widened, it was too late for me to fight, he hugged me so tight. His scenes were familiar.

“Hali?” I did not notice him because of his black cap and shades., but I knew it was him. I embraced him back.

“Did he touch you?”

I sniffed, avoiding the tears to spill from my eyes. “No.”

“If he touches you, his death will be advanced.”

I hid my face on his chest. It made me calm. “Why are you here? It’s dangerous when they saw you.”

“My fault. I should not involve you in this mission.” He kissed the top of my head.

“I’m goo一”

My eyes widened when the elevator opened and Caspian was revealed at the outside of it. He caught me hugging Hali.
