View MoreThe chirpy voice of a parrot sang and what used to be a source of amusement for Juliet now sounded like a tone of mockery.“Come to my office now”Not a second later her assistant walked in. “Yes boss”.“Take that bird and kill it”That short sentence held enough power to mortify the assistance. Her eyes moved towards the Hyacinth Macaw which is now priced around forty thousand dollars. And she wanted it dead?“What’re are you standing there for? Take it out of my sight and do your money’s worth. You’re paid to obey my instructions, are you not?”“Yes boss”The assistant found her legs and moved the bird cage out of the office. The door shut and Juliet felt more aggrieved about the silence. Her hands pulled open her drawer and she took out a card. A sinister smile tugged her sharp red lips.“So what if you caught my hunting dog? After all there’s more than one way to kill a rat”.She dialed the digits and Anna’s meek voice sounded over the phone. “Hello, please who is this?”“I
The minute of silence spoke volumes in Arya’s head, she was not new to Nicklaus Imposing attitude but experiencing it with her mom was another level of anger.Before them aligned a fleet of cars deliberately blocking their path. The flight senses of the driver must’ve kicked in because he tried to drive backwards but he was stunned to find out it was blocked as well. On the hand Arya wasn’t surprised, not even in the slightest. She watched as their doors flew open and suited men did a polite bow. Even if Arya was blind she’d be able to see the shock-stricken expression on the driver’s face. He’s probably thinking she’s royalty or something. Of course Melissa wasn’t left out in the frozen game. She looked too perplexed to utter a word at least not until a soft knock sounded on the window. Feeling extremely emotionally drained Arya eventually pushed the button that pulled down the window. “Madam, please come with us, Mr Harrington already prepared everything for you and your mother
Somewhere in the shadows of the night a familiar figure walked out of a rundown internet services shop. The intentions of the person was unknown but in the eyes laid doubt and uncertainty, the kind that appears after a dreaded mistake but such mistakes can’t be reserved because it’s already seeped deep into the heart of the internet and it’s just as they say ‘the internet never forgets’. *****What words could explain such relaxation Arya felt? Last night she slept like a baby with zero worries, little did she know that was her body’s way of preparing for the storm ahead and this time the storm didn’t give warnings! It just arrived with a banging knock on her door!The confusion in her face was etching, why was her mom so edgy she wondered. What could possibly be the problem? She mentally motion as she approached the door still feeling all groggy. Who’s gonna tell her?!Maybe if she knew what’s ahead she might’ve ignored the door and stay in her room oblivious to what awaits. Some
Arya’s POV He traced my steps back with his feet. Yeah, that right! Nicklaus was closing in on me like a Lion cautiously waiting for the perfect moment to strike. How did things get so sexual over a rejected gift? Nicklaus was really a pro, when he wanted someThe pressure I thought has subsided rose up in my heart. His reckless words stirred trouble in my depths and before I could speak he added.thing he knew how to maneuver his way around. And when he’s at it, even the purist of conversations become lustful just like his eyes now. His pupils were darker than normal, maybe it’s because they were housing a tank filled with unhinged and uncensored intentions. I placed a hand on his chest to stop him but that was my biggest mistake because he grabbed my hand and pulled me forward, the remaining gap between us faded into our bodies and I was now smeared in his embrace. “Nicklaus, what’re you doing?”My voice was edgy because his hands were already brazenly roaming my clothes like
Arya’s POV My body rolled out of the sheets to bask in the intruding sunlight. I know it sounded like I had a goodnights rest but I didn’t which is insane because after everything I went through in the hands of those cold concrete floors you’d think last night would’ve been divine, sleeping all nice and comfy. Well at least it should’ve been, except for the troubling thought brazenly roaming my mind and depriving me of sleep in the process. The fiasco with starlight entertainment didn’t leave my mind, not even for a second and although I know meeting Nicklaus is the only way to solve this, I’m hesitant and I have valid reasons to be! The numerous messages Nicklaus left me were starting to seem like death notes, if I show up in his face there’s a high chance he might do something ludicrous!Still, I don’t really have a choice, I can’t help but feel the crisis starlight’s in was somehow my fault. But isn’t Nicklaus too imposing? He already beat Lucious up, wasn’t that enough? Was th
Night came quickly thanks to the problematic atmosphere. Klaus just sat in the parking lot. His hands on the wheels but he couldn’t find the strength to start the engines.If we’re being honest, it wasn’t that he lacked strength but that he had no destination. Home doesn’t feel like home anymore. In the past he never cared about intimacy, just work and partying. If he needed to function then he’d get a woman for the pleasures but everything’s changed now.After experiencing the joy of returning home from work and being in the arms of the woman he loves, how can he go back to living like it never happened? Now the saying ‘home is where your love ones are’ made absolute sense to him. All he wanted to do was drive to Bella’s apartment, scratch that. All he wanted to do was bring her back to his place!But it wasn’t about what he wanted because at the end of the day love can’t be forced. If she kept on rejecting him then he’ll have no choice but to accept the rejection. Klaus just sa
The gloominess hovering over Nicklaus was like a gathering rain storm. It had its breaking point but it wasn’t just yet. The conversation with Arya played out in his memories like a tape on repeat with a visual image of the look in her eyes. Those stares haunted his dreams and he doesn’t even sleep! How then was that possible?He thought he had no fear, like hell he always pride himself in his fearlessness but right now he couldn’t recognize this sudden emotion. He feared greatly! He dreaded the reality of being looked upon by her with such hateful eyes. It didn’t matter when others called him a monster, their words didn’t hold water in his ears but now this was different. His heart was in pains and he couldn’t explain the feeling but it felt terrible. A feeling where your insides were twisting and ripping apart. To make things worse the so called heartbeat would miss a rhythm every now and then. Nicklaus sat behind his oak desk, his monotonous office seemed to be doing its best
Arya’s POV A mother should know her daughter just as a daughter should know her mother. And I knew mine.‘Oh, she’s really mad. She only calls me young lady when she’s mad upset!’“Good morning Melissa” Bella tried to alleviate the weird tension but my mom was a master at keeping things rolling. She turned and smiled warmly at Bella, responding to her greeting and then fixed her gaze back on me with a stern look. I shot Bella a glance and she left then I went in, closely following behind like a prisoner headed for trial. “After my dinner I had a sleepover at Emily’s new apartment. We drank so I forgot to text. Sorry”As we walked I straight up stated the lies I had cooked and Melissa suddenly halted at the center of the living room. “Were you with Nicklaus or Lucious?”My mood took a bigger nosedive, I wasn’t expecting such a question so the shock on my face was noticeable. It seems we were gonna have that long awaited conversation now but I wasn’t mentally ready for that. I’m s
Arya’s POV The confusion in my eyes knew no bounds as I stared at Bella but then a figure past by. It was Klaus, I caught a glimpse of him and understood the situation. “Arya, I’m so glad you’re okay. Are you hurt anywhere?”The second her voice reached my ears I realized I wasn’t the only one crying, the hoarseness in it gave her away and this caused my tears to stream down hastily. I couldn’t speak because my words were stuck somewhere in my throat. I only nodded and fell back into her embrace. My body quivered from crying my eyes out.“I’m glad you’re okay” I heard this with a pat on my back, the gentle movement caused an eruption within me. I wanted to blame it on the hormones but that’s a bloody lie. This was all me! I was bawling like a three year old abandoned by his mother. Everything that’s happened and everything I had to do was just too much for me. The overwhelming feeling made me weak in the knees. Who knew running away was this hard? A part of me tied Nicklaus reac
