Third Person
“I won’t ask again.” His warning made her jump in action and she immediately rushed to the door and opened the lock. The moment a small click was heard, the door was thrown open with a loud bang. Crystal backed away against a wall. Anxiety rolled her features in the form of sweat. The much-awaited doom is finally happening and she doesn’t have words to save herself.

Third Person13 months agoThe moon glowed high in all its full glory. Sliver light descended from it and hopped around dark corners. The light when fell on the Palacio of Romero, milky white color shined dazzlingly. It felt like the entire place has come to life, bathing in the affection of a silver ball at midnight. The surroundings were engulfed by a blanket of calm other than the low melody of crickets. The sweet garden was flooded with warm glowing fireflies.

12 months agoThird PersonLow timid hiccups rang in the silence of the room along with sniffing. The pain was immense but the sense of fear surpassed it. She shivered with each stroke he laid gently on her spine. Her eyes were closed now, drowned in a dreamless slumber. The exhaustion of days has finally gripped her bones hard. But there wasn’t an ounce of tiredness in his eyes. He got more provoked when she breathed irregularly. Every muscle in his body protested to be let loose. He was a heartless man, he knew. But never would he fill the life of his children with such darkness. He won’t bring them up with so much fear. He wants to see them mature in the same environment as his mother weaved years ago. Peaceful and warm. Looking down at her, he pursed his lips before kissing h

12 months agoThird PersonGhostly silence lingered in the car as the driver focused on road towards the Romero mansion. Nobody dared to question the Capo, aware of the fact of how important Volkov still was. His mere disappearance or sudden death could have caused an uproar in the silent lands of the underworld. They had a chance, but still, they couldn’t kill him. The wicked man has managed to obtain many allies in the past forty years. Killing him will be inviting hungry wolves for dinner.

PresentValentineTo have her is like to have stars. Truly. All this time, I thought I was protecting her and proffering my support. But it is a lie. Now when she is not here, I feel hollow, stripped, and weak. Being with her made me feel complete. It feels like someone has just ripped my heart from the chest and cursed me to breathe underwater for the rest of my life. How can a person give you so much strength and still be your only weakness at the same time? I feel like I am losing myself. Does she feel the same as I think about her?It has been 5 days and 6 nights since she left the mansion. She ran away from me. For some reason, I don&rsqu
