Chapter 121: Chapter 121
(Vivienne)
"Sweetie, are you okay?" it was Leo who asked me as he untied me and I ended up falling in his arms. I wasn't that tired hence I nodded and shifted my eyes to a bunch of policemen who rushed in to stop Victor from killing the Alfredo guy. I had to say Victor had a very bad temper. I didn't imagine myself provoking this man. He was an absolute animal as he dragged Alfredo by his neck and threw him against the wall
"Hahaha…you think bringing a bunch of useless police will stop me"Alfredo laughed sarcastically and I looked at him from where I was and I was shocked. He was bleeding badly. His entire face was covered in blood and he could barely stand on his own. For a man, he didn't even throw a punch at Victor or hurt him in the slightest. Victor dominated the entire time throwing him around like a ragged. Even his men couldn't do anything when they were handcuffed
"You are doomed...you should know I hate anyone crossing me…"Victor snarled as he slammed Alfredo to the wall multiple times. The scenery looked easy as if he was applying strength but seeing how muscular Victor was, I knew the man was done for. His body was in agonizing pain although he was trying to act like a man
"You can't ruin me...I'll ruin you first!"Alfredo growled out and tried to push Victor away unfortunately he ended up getting hit across the face with just one blow and he fell to the floor landing hard as he groaned even more. His white shirt was stained red which made me feel sorry for him.
"Take him away and lock him up until I say so...if his pathetic lawyers come to bail him out...throw them in jail," Victor said in a deadly warning tone, and the policeman who looked like he was the head of the team nodded
"Yes Victor," the man said and gestured for his men to carry Alfredo who could barely stand nor lift his finger talk of his head
"You seem to like abducting women right...now let's see how you fare in jail you rascal, "the policeman said as he looked at Alfredo with disdain in his eyes. I watched closely how intense and frightening his aura was and I guessed the Alfredo guy was on the police list of notorious men
"My apologies for this Ms. Payton... we'll make sure that justice is done...he won't ever hurt you again" the man came to me and said and I tried to stand on my own but Leo wrapped his arms around my back securely. By now Victor also joined however his expression didn't seem like a happy one
"It's okay" it was the only thing I said and the man smiled warmly, he wasn't so scary as he was a minute ago hence I returned the smile
"Come, sweetheart," Leo said with a grin and tried to pick me up in his arms as soon as the police walked away and joined his team. I didn't know what happened but
"You know what...I'll start the car"Leo changed his mind suddenly and let me go. I wasn't expecting him to move away so quickly but when I lost balance and I was about to fall. Victor reached for me and held me before I could hurt myself even more
"Are you okay?" he muttered as he wrapped his arms around my back and I nodded. I was fine, that insane man wanted to hurt me but didn't succeed
"I'm fine" I mumbled knowing he would scold me again. That I got into trouble, but it wasn't my fault at all. That insane man kidnapped a pregnant lady and threatened to end us both. I didn't get to form defensive words to tell Victor later when he unexpectedly picked me up and pulled me close in his arms. Time seemed to have stopped since it was just the two of us
"Arms around my neck" he spoke hoarsely and like a fool I hesitated before I did as told knowing he was still angry. Just a moment ago he nearly killed someone with his bare hands, not the first time I saw him beat up someone but it was frightening to see a calm and cool collected man like Victor get into a fight. I guessed Victor loved taking care of business with just his fists. He didn't use his henchmen to fight for him despite how rich he was.

It turned out the Alfredo guy had taken me to some warehouse underground, when we emerged to the surface I was surprised that it was dark. How long did he keep me hostage for it to be so dark and dead? No stars or moon in the dark blue sky and the air was a little cold. It was Leo who was driving while I sat in the backseat of the car with the victor. I didn't know why he sat with me but I tried, by all means, to keep calm even when his presence was something I was fearful of
When we arrived at the Ellison mansion, I was surprised to be welcomed by Monica, doctor Justin and a worried it's who ran to me and engulfed me in his arms. I was fine as they all expressed how happy they were. Even Monica who I never thought would be happy that I wasn't around gave me a surprise hug
"Should we bring anything?"Leo asked as he hesitated in the room. I was feeling fine after a warm shower and settled for some warm clothes. Victor was still there taking my blood pressure while Monica Leo and Justin stood to the sides watching me.
"If you need anything tell me I'll get it right away" it was Monica who added when Victor and I didn't say anything. It wasn't like I was just ignoring them but I had nothing to say when Victor had a straight face
"Out" Victor simply said without even moving his mouth. I watched him closely and I knew he said the word through gritted teeth which meant he was angry. I shifted my eyes to the people standing in a straight line and they seemed shocked as they exchanged glances
"Okay take care sweetheart," Leo said with a fair smile and I nodded. They all left and I was alone with the angry man. From a grumpy man to an angry man. I didn't know why I felt nervous having him around
"I'm fine sir," I said seeing how he wasn't talking his hands were on me and his gaze was lowered down but I could feel him trembling
"Did he hurt you in any way?" he murmured still keeping his head down and I shook my head and moved my hand to my belly
"The baby is fine...he didn't do anything" I replied rubbing my hand on my belly knowing the baby's safety was the most important to him
"Did he hurt you in any way?" he asked again this time he looked up at me and I was stunned when I saw pure concern in his eyes. I didn't know why he asked me twice when I answered him but the realization hit me when I saw through his words. He wasn't asking about the baby, but about me. My eyes widened in shock, not sure what to say. I was fine as well so why was he worried
"I'm fine sir..you should get some rest"I muttered and tried to shift away from him but his hand was still on me. He seemed to be trembling which I noticed a while ago. I failed to understand why he was afraid when he examined me himself and the baby was alright.
Even Justin did it before Victor came to cross-check and he said the baby was fine so why was he worried
"Sir nothing happened I promise," I said getting up not sure how I was going to convince him otherwise. He didn't look fine at all which worried me.
Just his expression said so many things. He was different from the Victor I was used to, this one looked scared. He didn't hide it for I saw through him. His gaze lowered down and by now I was anxious to know why he was acting strange
This isn't how Victor Ellison was, it was unusual, and I rested my hand on his hand. He reacted, I didn't bother as I shifted closer to him until I was an inch from him
"What's wrong with you?"I whispered trying, by all means, to find out what was happening with him
"Everything is fine...get some sleep" he finally said as he shifted back and prepared to leave when I held him up. This was serious when our eyes met. He lowered his and I was compelled to do something. My hands reached for his face and I turned him to face me but he kept his eyes lowered
"You don't seem fine to me" I murmured and tilted his head up, this time he looked at me. We stared at each other for a while. He was so close to me that I could hear his heart pounding loudly against his chest making me even more anxious as I caressed him gently. He reacted to my touch as his eyes lowered as if feeling me. He slowly flickered his eyes open and I smiled at him warmly. His gaze moved to my lips then slowly
"Ms. Payton, you should get some rest for now...you went…" he started saying while moving my hands away from his face but I used that opportunity and sealed our lips catching him off guard. He seemed surprised that I initiated a kiss. He was frozen for a while but I gently sucked on him. He didn't wait for long and like he wanted what was happening. He kissed me back more gently. A full kiss initiated as my hands moved to his neck then slipped into his sold fluffy hair while his hands moved to my back
"Mm" both of us moaned in pleasure as the kiss intensified. The feeling was overwhelming that he flipped me up as he was now leaning to the pillows and I was on top of him. He was gentle yet demanding as he tugged at my lower lip demanding entrance. I opened up as he slipped his tongue in my mouth and like a girl in need I welcomed him with fine. He let out a chuckle when I teased him but ended up slipping mine in his. Everything was numb. My body was trembling as we deepened the kiss so much that I lost it
He seemed in control but it was too much for me. The taste of his mouth made me whimper as I moved my hand down and got access to his chest. His hands gripped my neck firmly as he pulled me to him and ravished my mouth like candy
"Mmm," a small moan escaped my lips as I started unbuttoning his shirt. Getting rid of the buttons one after the other until I had full access to his bare chest. He shivered when I slipped my hands into his shirt and caressed his hard chest
"Vi that's enough" he murmured in between kisses and moved away from my mouth. I was delirious from being kissed that my breathing was high. My heart was racing fast and my eyes had become blurry from ecstasy.
"Please" I pleaded not sure what I wanted but I wanted something. I was thirsty for him and only he could calm me down and a single touch from him made it worse
"Not now...you are not in your right senses," he said as he caressed my face. His eyes were soft as he looked at me but I didn't want him to stay away. This was the first time I was acting carelessly. He was the reason why I was feeling miserable. He started whatever was circulating in my body and I had no idea how to control myself. When he touched me he made things worse. I leaned to his touch, closing my eyes to feel him. His warm hand moved to my back and I ached
"Why?"I muttered, opening my eyes to look at him. It was obvious he wanted me as well. I knew I was throwing myself at him but I was left with no choice when these strange feelings had taken over, I was going crazy.
