The Enforcer's Sister Chapter Eleven: Adele – 10:45 P.M.
As I trudged through the pouring rain, my soaked clothes clinging heavily to my body, I couldn't help but shiver uncontrollably. The storm had caught me off guard, and I cursed myself for being so careless as to venture out without an umbrella or raincoat. The sight of our childhood home, a burnt wreck we had been trying to salvage, made my heart leap with joy in the midst of the downpour. The dim glow of a flickering lantern in one of the windows indicated Mark must be home already.Pushing open the front door, its loud creak echoing through the empty house, I entered the cold and damp interior. The scent of mold and burnt wood permeated the air, a testament to the state of disrepair. With no electricity, the feeble light from the small lantern on a makeshift table in the living room offered the only illumination."Mark?" I called out, my teeth chattering. "Are you here?"No answer came, and I let out a weary sigh. It seemed Mark had left the lantern on for me, indicating that he had
The Enforcer's Sister Chapter Twelve: Adele & Archer - House invasion 1:55 P.M.
I heard Mark's order, but I couldn't move. Whether it was from fear or shock, I couldn't tell. I felt exhausted. It had been a long day, and I couldn't understand why anyone would want to break into our home, especially when it looked so derelict from the outside. The thought of Archer Donovan's assailant crossed my mind. Could they have seen me helping him and followed me home? Had they found and killed him and now wanted to eliminate any witnesses?"Adele?!" Mark's voice penetrated my mind and jolted me back to reality. My eyes darted in their sockets, and my heart pounded unnaturally. "Can you hear me?!""Y-yes," I whispered."Get to the basement, and if they find you, give them hell!" Mark growled. I swallowed and nodded."Okay," I said."I'm coming, Adele... hold on for me," Mark said, his voice filled with desperation. It pulled at my heart. I clenched my jaw as I heard the door rattling."Hurry," I said."Don't cut the line," he warned.I rose and hurried to the wide hallway on
The Enforcer's Sister Chapter Thirteen: Mark - Archer’s Plan
When fear gripped me, my natural response was to unleash my rage. Anger had always been my shield against vulnerability. Adele was the only family I had left, and I would set the world ablaze to keep her safe. I had gone to great lengths to ensure she remained untangled in my dangerous affairs. The fact that I now stood in the basement, witnessing her blood-stained form, left me searching my mind for where I had gone wrong. How had these people infiltrated my home, intent on harming my sister?"We need to bring the boss to the house. He's badly wounded," Chad's voice broke through my thoughts, concern evident in his tone. I nodded, locking eyes with Adele."Are you hurt?" I asked, my voice trembling. She shook her head. Closing the distance between us, I gathered her in my arms. She trembled, and I clenched my teeth, lifting her up as she wrapped her arms around my neck."Chad, look around and see if you can find any more of them. I'll check on Archer. We can't take him back to the ho
The Enforcer's Sister Chapter Fourteen: Adele: The Role
I waited for him to leave before I let out a deep breath, feeling utterly deflated. Replaying the scene in the basement in my head, I wrapped my arms around myself as the whiff of his cologne lingered in my nostrils. I inhaled and held it in before releasing a shaky breath. The moment I saw him standing behind the monster that was trying to kill and violate me simultaneously, I thought I was hallucinating, a desperate figment of my imagination. But when he pulled the man away, I knew he was real, and I thought maybe he had followed me, still believing I was working with the people who had attacked him earlier. I tried not to dwell on the brutal way he had killed the man. There was a strange resolve in his eyes, devoid of emotion, almost inhuman. It shattered the illusion I had unconsciously crafted in my mind.And now, knowing that he was friends with Mark, all the nights Mark came home with bruises and wounds replayed in my head. I swallowed hard. And then Mark's warning not to trust
The Enforcer's Sister Chapter Fifteen: Archer & Adele - The Hotel
There were other options, like suggesting she go to one of our safe houses, but then I wouldn't have a valid reason to be there myself. Adele Rutherford was making me act and feel unnatural, both intrigued and irritated. I was intrigued because I was inexplicably drawn to her and irritated because of the confusion she caused in my head. She was just a random girl, and I shouldn't care about what happened to her, but for some reason, I did.It wasn't because of Mark, either. The thought of him and me being caught and assassinated didn't affect me the same way the thought of Adele suffering the same fate did. My heart constricted, my pulse raced, and rage consumed me, even just imagining it. I needed to unravel the reasons behind my inexplicable feelings, which led me to desire her proximity. A cynical voice in my mind scoffed at the logical reasoning, but I couldn't deny the truth—I found her breathtakingly beautiful. The image of her bare chest flashed in my mind, heightening my inne
The Enforcer's Sister Chapter Sixteen: Archer - Fighting Temptation
As I walked, each step causing me excruciating pain, the conflicting voices in my head reminded me that Adele was Mark's sister. They urged me to turn back, to stick to the plan. But I couldn't recall ever denying myself anything, and the desire to see Adele before I crashed overwhelmed any rational thinking. Yes, she was going to be my nurse, a terrible plan I had consciously orchestrated, knowing I was throwing her into a dangerous situation. But she was the enforcer's sister, and once she arrived at my house, there was no other role she could play but that of my nurse. I had to play my part and distance myself from her, for both our sakes. But before the mask came on, I had this one chance to speak with her, to connect.Clutching the key card in my hand, I stood in front of her suite's door. Common sense dictated that I didn't need to knock, but I did so anyway, a deliberate act to jolt myself back to reality. Minutes ticked by, and I contemplated turning back, leaving, and getting
The Enforcer's Sister Chapter Seventeen: Adele - A Terrifying Welcome (How The Day Begun)
Restless and unable to escape the tantalizing dreams of a tall, dark, brooding hunk who embodied Archer, I found solace in the temporary respite they provided from the previous day's ordeals. The blaring sound of the alarm shattered the lingering echoes of those dreams, jolting me awake. It was a relief in its own way, freeing me from the intense yearning they had awakened within me. But the reality of Archer's kiss still lingered, refusing to be dismissed. The memory of his fiery touch ignited tremors in my heart, while his sudden retreat filled me with a sense of embarrassment. "He was the one who kissed me!" I muttered to myself, frustration and defiance mingling in my voice. "There's nothing to be ashamed of!" I repeated, a glimmer of determination shining through. I let out a deflated sigh, my hands gently rubbing away the remnants of slumber from my face. "I shouldn't have hugged him! What possessed me to do that?" The image of him turning his back and striding away, leaving me
The Enforcer's Sister Chapter Eighteen: Jessica - The Pregnancy Plan (Present Time )
As I observed Archer’s guards assembling into a human shield, blocking my path to his residence, I couldn't help but feel a surge of annoyance at their disrespectful demeanor, and I made a mental note to have them all fired once I assumed my rightful place by Archer's side."Is Archer home?" I inquired, trying to maintain a composed tone despite my frustration."No, madam," one of the guards replied."Very well. Can I speak with his nurse? It must be quite lonely for her to be confined there all day," I suggested, attempting to feign sympathy. However, they remained unmoved, and instead, more guards gathered, reinforcing the blockade at the entrance. Anger simmered within me, though I concealed it beneath a facade of amusement."Boss said no one is allowed inside when he's not in the building," the first guard retorted."Is that so?" I scoffed. "Not even Victor?" I questioned, hoping to catch them off guard. However, they met my inquiry with blank stares."Very well then, gentlemen. I
