A Scandal With Mr. Nightwood 142- The Legion’s Battle
The situation was tense due to the impending violence. Antler’s grip on his gun was slick with sweat; four people against an army—the math was a death sentence. Yet under that fatal scenario, if anything, Dorian was darkly amused to experience a life-threatening situation.“Try it, motherfucker,” Dorian challenged, his voice low but steady. “I’m right here.”His bravery did not falter. If it was death, he had accepted it with pride.Emeric’s brow twitched, the smirk did not fade but the blow from his words was crystal-clear.“Look at you,” Emeric sneered, exhaling a plume of gray smoke that veiled his malice. “Embracing the end like a tragic hero. It’s pathetic.”Dorian smirked proudly, “Never been afraid of it, Emeric.” Emeric’s eyes turned cold. He raised a hand, the silent signal to erase Dorian from existence—until the world exploded in the scream of burning rubber.A black McLaren drifted into the perimeter, a blur of predatory intent. Before the car even stopped, a young man
A Scandal With Mr. Nightwood 141- Official Freedom
THIRD POV***************In a lavishing apartment now tainted with one’s blood, Antler was sitting on the ground, hugging his knee, staring into nothingness. His back was against the couch, eyes locked right where Anna died. He had bangs under his eyes, redness due to exhaustion around the corner, yet a single tear refused to escape.“I… love small birds. Larks, especially. They look beautiful. I adore them. When I was a kid, I caged a lark, but it got sad when I kept it with me, so I… let it go.” Sharing a long-lost tale, a brief smile adorned his lips. “It hurt me, it broke my heart, I cried to myself that night and swore I would never let go of my birds ever again.” His hand extended to caress the air but stopped midway. Curling it in a powerless fist, he pulled it back, rising from his seat.“And ever since then… I have never caught a bird before. I could never bring myself to do it.”The emptiness took too much energy to force his steps towards his room. The grief consumed
A Scandal With Mr. Nightwood 140- Kieran’s Truth
The acceptance was more sacred and endearing than I could have imagined. With my heart overflowing with inexplicable glee and a never-ending smile, I entered my home only to find the atmosphere was thick with fatality.“Oh shit.” Whispering under my breath, my steps slowed down.I could feel the fumes emitting from the woman standing on the space between the stairs, tapping her foot dangerously on the wood. She asked strictly, arms closed at her chest, “Where were you?” “Um, with Kieran?” I let out a nervous smile. “Where with Kieran?” She pressed.Her eyes hardened, observing me thoroughly, enough to halt my breaths. Folding my hands behind me, I was standing below, giving her an apologetic look.“Um, his club…”She corrected me with a hissing sound, “His 'strip' club.”“I did not lift my head, let alone look at a woman. I swear, my dear.” She turned, and my steps mindlessly followed her, trying to explain to her. “What should I do when that bastard doesn’t stay at his home? Tha
A Scandal With Mr. Nightwood 139- An Invisible Bride?
ZAYNE’S POV******************With my heart at cloud-nine, and a never-ending grin, I was with Kieran. In his strip club, as this man had nowhere else to be at.We were in the VIP lounge, a dancer was giving this fuckboy a lap dance. His hand printed on her ass, gripping it while I had to keep my eyes locked on the table.Suddenly, the tables were ‘very’ intriguing. “How does it feel, Bro?”“Hmm?” “You are no longer Dorian’s Dog or a Hunter. You are no longer bound to any shackles. You are… hers. Finally, hers.” He teased me.Letting out a snicker as the sloppy sound of the kiss made me feel disgusted. I had no interest in the temptation he had been constantly trying to force on me. He pulled away, releasing a breathless laughter, “Annnnd, I was right all this time. You really did love her.”“Yes, Kieran. I did.” I smiled sincerely, tracing my index finger over my bottom lips with pure intent to worship the lips I kissed. He slowly relaxed, giving the girl two taps– Where? I didn
A Scandal With Mr. Nightwood 138- Becoming One
“What? You — you can’t be serious, right?” To say I was shocked would be an understatement.“I am dead serious.”Zayne’s thumb gently brushed away the tear on my cheek, his eyes burning with quiet devotion that enhanced my feelings for him.“But, my father… he.. He did so bad to your mother. How could you forgive and move on and work for Dorian again?”Zayne exhaled slowly, pulling me closer until our foreheads touched, trying to reduce the sting in my body.“Edric killed my family. My mother died, my sister was never seen again. My Miss Iglesias was in a relationship with the same man…” He swallowed hard. My gaze lowered with embarrassment, clutching the sheets, unable to lift my head. “What else could I have done?” He chuckled empty, piercing my heart.“That was the only way to be near you, to ensure Dorian wouldn’t stop me from being yours… I wanted you back so badly that I stopped thinking about everything else.” My heart shattered, breaths struck at my throat. I cupped his fa
A Scandal With Mr. Nightwood 137- Hollowness
After regaining my memories, a void had settled on my core. My eyes were empty, staring into nothingness for hours. A blankness had consumed me where I had no idea what to do or what to speak. Everything was just… hollow.What should I do? What should I say?Breathing had become a burden, I stayed fazed for hours until someone called out.“Madam?”“Huh? What?”Blinking, I realized I had been in the same position for quite a while, leaving all my work undone as well.“The files… they need your signature.” “What were these for again?” I asked. The authority in my tone was gone. I couldn’t maintain my frontage as a boss either.“For the collaboration with the Hoteliers for our new collection launch. The event is in two months. We had to start right away.” She explained, baffled. How could I forget about such an important collaboration for my brand?Sighing, I shook my head, signing the papers, “Right… right.”“Are you alright, Ma’am?” She asked worriedly.“I don’t know…” I rubbed my t
