The sequel to "The Importance of Being Kept" This story portrays Brandon and Kaylee's lives together, along with our previous characters.

Two years after the hacker's attack on his family and friends, Brandon goes back to a darkness he once tried to get out of. A darkness that he now sees as a way to protect the woman he loves. Now he's being called The Don of the city of San Francisco, a name that brings fear to anyone that mentions it. But how long can Brandon continue down this path without it turning against him? 

Kaylee has always known there was a hint of danger surrounding Brandon, but she hadn't known how bad he could get until she almost died. Her near death experience changed him, made him cold, ruthless to the world, and sent him spiraling down a dark path she didn't want to be associated with.

Brandon's intense love for her was turning him into a monster and she was the only one that could save him, but how when she was the heart of his darkness? Can Kaylee's sweet nature tame the beast set loose on the city?

"Brandon..... You're hurting me.", I hissed at him as he tightened his hold around my arm. "I don't give a fuck!", He hissed back digging holes inside me through his gaze. The person who stood in front of me, wasn't even a smallest, single fraction of the Brandon I loved... the Brandon who loved me. "Now listen carefully....", he dragged me as he pushed me against a wall hurting my back still holding my arm tightly. "I'm warning you for the last time.", He hissed closing the distance between the two of us to zero. His closeness still had an effect on my heartbeat that raced manically but little did it effect Brandon who stood digging holes into my entire body through his death glare. "I'm warning you for the last time... Don't test my patience. Try and act smart again and I'll show you how I can ruin you, your entire family and that little business of yours and the families of hundreds of your employees. Trust me, if killing you was an option I wouldn't have waited for a single second to get rid of you... So don't get on my nerves before I decide to change my mind.", He said out loud glaring directly into my eyes. There wasn't a small hint of sadness or sorrow but pure hatred and annoyance in his eyes as he uttered those words rendering me rather shocked.

[Written in Anger Rewrite] Kayla carries a tale she never intended to tell. Fate placed her in the shadows of a moment she wasn't meant to witness, unraveling everything she thought she knew. Her heart and mind are locked in a dance of discord, yet beneath the chaos, she clings to a fragile hope that whispers through the passing days. Michael is a man forged in ice, his heart as unyielding as the steel he wields. By daylight, he moves through the world as a calculated businessman, but when night falls, he becomes a relentless force, leaving no room for the warmth of human connection-or the complications of emotion. He's never questioned this cold existence. But when Kayla crosses his path, their fates entwine with a magnetic force that defies reason. The world itself seems to strain under the weight of keeping them apart. In the end, one question lingers in the shadows, desperate to unravel the enigma of their bond. In "Stolen Hearts", as Kayla and Michael's lives collide in a whirlwind of passion and peril, their intertwined destinies reveal a truth that neither could have foreseen. Their journey through heartache and danger challenges their deepest fears and desires, compelling them to confront the essence of their connection. Amid the chaos and shadows, they must grapple with the ultimate question: can love truly transform the coldest heart and heal the most fractured soul, or will their entangled fates unravel, leaving only echoes of what might have been?
