  Prequel- Chapter 15: GoodbyeElian Storm"David, I am willing to surrender myself if you hand over Alena to me safely," the steady but desperate words I uttered over the phone were ones I never imagined doing."You are such a fool, Elian. I never thought you would stoop this low for love. Such a disappointment," came the sneering response of the leader of XS gang, David Garner."I don't have the time for chit-chat, David. Do we have a deal or not?""Alright, you got it. Come to the location I will send you. I know I don't have to say this to you but come alone and unarmed," he warned.I hung up the call without bothering to reply."Elian, I don't have a goo

I asked, feeling slightly jittery."For the umpteenth time, Elian, I don't care," Lance replied flatly."Come on, help your brother out here," I whined."How should I know, man? Do you think I have experience with meeting my girlfriend's parents?" Lance retorted."Right, you don't have a girlfriend," I snorted."Who needs a trouble like that?" he said with a bored look."It's not a trouble—""Besides, can you just be a little disappointed that the XS members e

  Prequel- Chapter 12: Chance RuinedElian Storm"Fucking hell, just get off already," I muttered under my breath, trying to get rid of the stubborn blood stain on my phone case.It was my favorite one, and yet, in a rush, I made the mistake of picking up Alena's phone while my hands were all bloody. I couldn't ignore it, either, knowing all too well how Alena would scold me."Looks like I will just have to order a new exact one—"Just then, I heard the front door open."Shit. I really shouldn't have given my key to her." But what else could I do? It would be suspicious if I didn't, given that we had been dating for one and a half years now.I threw my

  Prequel- Chapter 11: For HimAlena FleurI stayed quiet as Elian vented out his anger.I stayed quiet as he confessed he loved me.I stayed quiet as he walked out on me, shutting the door in my face.I wanted to stop him, but my muscles wouldn't move. I became numb. He had always made me speechless, but never in this way. My chest had never hurt like this before.My legs gave up, and I plopped down on the edge of his bed, tears stinging my eyes."What should I do? Wha–what should I do?"

  Prequel- Chapter 10: Unleashing The AngerElian StormI was deep in my slumber when I heard shuffling around me. I peeked an eye open to find Alena running around my room in a hurry while getting dressed."Good morning, babe," I mumbled groggily, stretching my arms and rising up from the bed.Alena stopped in the middle of putting on her cardigan and came to give me a hurried kiss. "Good morning, baby. Did you sleep well?""I always sleep well when you are with me," I replied and tried to catch her for another kiss, but she was already on her way to the dressing table to grab her hairbrush."Of course, I'm the most huggable person ever," she praised herself.I smiled looki
