Chapter 72
Leigh-Ann’s POV
Ace chuckled and it got me frowning. Hope he hasn’t caught me already.
“It’s okay to love Kael, besides he’s not a thing you should like”
We talked about other random things and I kept laughing and enjoying the atmosphere. Ace was a cool guy and I admired him. He was handsome too.
“Let’s dance?” He asked and offered his hand.
I laughed and shook my head. “Hell no. I don’t dance much”
“Trust me, you wouldn’t wanna say no. Any beautiful lady can handle the craziest dance with me”
I blushed at how he called me a “beautiful lady” but I covered it up immediately. Taking a deep breath, I took his hand and stood up.
The people around kept stealing glances at us while some took out their phones to make a video but surprisingly, I wasn’t nervous, not this time.
“Um… we could take a walk first,” I suggested. I wanted to see what was beyond here. I bet it’ll be beautiful.
“Yeah, you’re right. The Hillside’s a perfect place”
We walked out of the Hub to a different place entirely. It looked so beautiful. They were golden trees and grasses. Indeed, we were in a world made of pure gold.
We arrived at the waterfalls and I couldn’t help staring at them, it was wonderful.
“Leigh, I’ve got something to say to you” Ace Suddenly spoke up but my attention wasn’t on him.
“Yes?” I replied absentmindedly, still admiring the falls.
“Do you enjoy your stay here in Bolivia? Will you love to remain here?” I heard him ask.
“I sure love Bolivia and if given a chance, I wouldn’t wanna leave” I replied absentmindedly. The falls were so beautiful to look at.
“Then stay. I would love you to”
“Okay, I’m staying” I responded and chuckled lightly.
“Leigh-Ann”
I turned immediately to look at him. Has he been saying something? “Am… am sorry, what did you say?”
“You’re Beautiful”
My cheeks flushed and I lowered my head nervously. Why was he looking at me that way?
“There’s something else”
I looked into his face and waited to hear more but almost immediately, his eyes averted from mine as they focused behind me. His lips curved into a smirk and I had to turn and have a look.
“Leigh-Ann” Alejandra squealed as she approached us with her date. My heart sank.
No, she wasn’t the one who made my heart sink. She wasn’t the one who made me have a sudden terrible headache, it was her date.
He was dressed in a white suit with a pink bow tie. His hair was also dyed pink giving him the cutest look ever.
With each step he took, my heartbeat accelerated.
“Leigh-Ann, let’s have a dance” Alejandra called out, jerking me back to reality.
“I… I can’t dance”
I felt so nervous and I shook. Why does his presence affect me so much huh?

Author’s POV
Kyler and the lady, Carrie had been talking business as she was more involved in knowing everything about him. She kept pressing her thighs and biting her lips all along together which was obvious that she couldn’t help drooling over him.
” So what about your brothers? I know of Kael, Kash, and… and… Oh, nevermind ”
She held her breath and fisted her hand. She knew all the brothers but just one… The only one she couldn’t mention had shredded her life like a piece of paper. Kenver.
” Are you okay? ” Kyler asked, noticing the change in her countenance. Not that he would care but when it had something to do with one of his brothers, he was forced to ask.
” No, nothing ” She responded almost immediately and faked a smile.
Her eyes averted to the glass of drink on the other side of the table, the one that belonged to Kyler and that was when it dawned on her that he hadn’t touched the glass.Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
” You’re not drinking ”
” Should I? ”
She smirked and leaned closer so her cleavages pointed out at him. ” Of course yes ”
Kyler looked at her for some time then leaned backward. ” Make me ”
For a split second, Carrie didn’t understand what he meant but when she saw the smirk on the corner of his lips, she leaned backward.
She stood up seductively and got over to where he sat then slowly, sat on his thighs. She moved her hands on his broad hard chest then lowered her lips to his right ear and whispered.
” Is this convincing enough?”
” Not a chance ” Just his warm breath on her neck and his deep hard voice made her nipples itch. It felt like a rush of lightning zapping through her body.
” Then what should I do huh? ” She asked, her voice coming out frail. She couldn’t hold it in.
Her men who stood watching the whole show knew they had to do something. The plan was getting out of hand and they needed to call her to order.
” Yes, Soverino, what is it? ”
” I’ll love to have a word ma’am ” One of the men responded with the hardest voice ever. That was the only way they could call her back.
Carrie rolled her eyes and pecked Kyler before getting off him. Did they have to spoil things for her at the moment?
She walked out and Soverino followed but not without glaring hard at Kyler who just sat caring less. He wasn’t afraid of anything and was ready for any.
Carrie returned after some minutes but this time she wore a black short dress. ” Did you miss me?”
” Sure did ” Kyler responded with a smirk ” I was gonna come get you cause I thought he was laying hands on you ”
Carrie’s heart sank but she covered it up with a smile. She had a plan and was gonna stick to it.
” Oh please… ”
She made to take her seat but Kyler stood up immediately. She turned to him surprised. What was he trying to do?
” How about we have a dance huh? ”
She spared him a suspicious look then glanced at her men who signaled her to play along.
” Alright. A dance ” She smirked evilly as a thought niggled at her. This would be a perfect time for her to execute her plans.
Kyler offered his hand and she took it gladly as he led her to the door. He paused and she turned to look at him. He was just staring at the door and at that moment, Carrie wished she could know what was going on in his mind.
” Any problem? ”
” We’re dancing alone. Tell your men to stand down ” Kyler said the words like it was nothing but to Carrie, it meant a lot.
What??? How, why…
No, she was not gonna do this. He had something up on his sleeves and even if she couldn’t smell it, she knew he was up to something.
” Why? You wanna turn me down? ” Kyler asked and turned to look at her. She gulped hard and he smirked inwardly. She was up to something.
” I… Um… No, never, why would I? ” She stuttered and turned to her men who were behind them ” Stay back ”
She made eye contact with one of them and finally proceeded out of the room with Kyler.
Kim who had been watching all along turned to Shark who stood at the other side of the room. They weren’t a bit worried or scared like Carrie’s men. Their boss was more than capable of taking care of himself.
They began dancing at the party ground and with his arm on her waist and his other hand clasped with hers, she was caged by him but Carrie didn’t notice that. To her, it was just a dancing posture that was just perfect.
Kyler took his hand off hers and trailed it from her back down to her ass. He squeezed it gently and she bit her lips. She then took her other hand and rounded it on his neck then pressed her b00bs on his chest.
He leaned closer and bit her earlobe, sending sizzles down her spine. That alone made her lose control as he lowered his head and ate at the hollow of her neck, leaving hickeys.
Carrie moaned quietly and wanted nothing more than to kiss him but Kyler wasn’t opting in for that.
One watching Kyler could term him as a lover or even a playboy who was so perfect but to Kyler, this was just one of his actions that he was perfectly good at especially when it was the only way to make his plan a success.
Carrie didn’t know when she started moaning and before she knew it, she was pinned to the wall. She gasped back to reality and searched Kyler’s face then turned to look around. They were out of the dancing ground.
” Kyler… ”
” Shush ” Kyler hushed and kept placing kisses on her neck.
She tried to relax but couldn’t and at that moment, she remembered all the warnings her dad had given her. One of which was said repeatedly that Kyler was dangerous and as cunning as a fox.
Kyler and her father had a business deal that involved him helping her father in return for something. Kyler completed his side of the deal but when it was time to get his returns, Carrie’s dad bluntly refused, stating that Kyler was a small boy and a thief.
Kyler being a guy of few words gave him two days to play his part in the deal but instead, Carrie’s dad involved the FBI who he didn’t know were afraid of Kyler.
When the deal went down, Kyler stormed his house and hung him upside down then used his blade to design the whole of his body. When he was close to burning him down, he pleaded, and there, he transferred all he owned to Kyler who let him live. It was a miracle no one ever believed.
Now, standing under Kyler’s grip was his daughter who he had sent to exact revenge on his behalf. And that was killing him off.
Kyler grabbed her thigh and she gasped. Before she could make him stop, he had pulled out the dagger she hid beneath her thigh.
” And you thought you could kill me ” Kyler gruffed coldly and turned to look at her ” I’m impressed you made a try “
