The aura around Adam had shifted as she had twice noticed—when he forbade Gianna from going to Elodie's party and the night he'd shown up after Gianna's danger alert. He looked like a whole different person behind his glasses.

"Did you ever notice something strange with Gianna?"

Mimie's heart cooled a bit, however, hurt. She'd expected more critical but she'd not expected Gianna to be the source of the cause. Like the other times. "What do you m-mean?"

"You know, I was able to delve into her bag the other day in search of a pencil and...I saw this unusual stuff in there. Something like a square or was it a rectangular leather case? Well, she sort of looked...protective of it, is it?" His question was rhetoric and more to himself as if he'd not used the proper descriptive word. "Have you seen it before?"

Mimie nodded. "She said it wa-was a pencil c-case. Customized."

"Ditto," a heartbeat silence reigned. "But I don't think so, not that I ever seen such before. Why would she be so

  • I love to hate you   Chapter 90

    She was unusually seated in a fetal position on a single wrought iron bed in an immaculate white psych gown. On days she was positioned differently, she would either sit at the edge of the bed and stare blankly at the window or motionlessly stand in the middle of the colorless, lifeless, unequipped, and ammonia-filled room. The only other color that gave the room life was her blue psych gown, but that was on days she wasn't wearing the white one, and sometimes when a visitor brought her flowers, and her nurse was kind enough to put it in a vase, but months had passed since the last visit.When her tiny room didn't smell of pee as a consequence of profound, concentrated, and reflective thinking, it did of disinfectants from thorough cleaning after which she would lie on the cold floor all curled up in recitals of two specific names and the life-mark mishaps that came upon her through one of them. And that was her favorite posture for the simple reason that she felt safer, more defensiv

  • I love to hate you   Chapter 89

    It was a warm Sunday night. The housemates had finished savoring one of Mikai's sumptuous meals—another one of his grandma's recipes. The old darling taught her dearest grandson everything she knew about Russian cuisine: It went from the key ingredients and spices for every meal to culinary unforgivable spice combinations in the history of Russian cuisine. All these with hopes of him growing up to be a reputable chef owning a grandiose restaurant. As fate would have it, the old darling rested in the bosom of the Lord when Mikai barely hit fifteen. Everything changed ever since.Keep the Sabbath day holy.All five bodies rested within the four walls of the mansion from dusk till dawn as it had been customary. While Levi and Andrei busied themselves with video gaming, Sean absent-mindedly watched—more preoccupied by how to reach Dominik if he didn't get to him by the end of the coming week than anything else, Mikai tidied the kitchen, and Vadim, present—not training—to everyone's surpri

  • I love to hate you   Chapter 88

    Adam has occasionally been acting off lately making Gianna wonder if his condition was gradually deteriorating. In the middle of their conversation, he would zone out and zone back in completely different. He would say things she had no clue about: Once, he mentioned Ethan and both of them living happily ever after, he grieved a certain Leigh who lost her life in a shipwreck. The same Leigh seemed to be coming for Ethan and the little one had to be protected from her at all costs. He talked about mobs, how they were after their lives and how they—both of them— ought to leave the town as soon as possible and went as far as having their flights booked. Each scenario filed in its personality and these personalities altered from anxious to furious to delightful and much more.One time she'd taken advantage of the situation and asked him who Ethan really was."Honey, Ethan is your son. My son. Our son." He'd said this with affection. Then suddenly, in a switch, he looked entirely blank. "S

    "Would you rather take care of yourself or let me do it for you?" Sean asked, comfortably seated on his victim's costly sofa while sipping on a glass of sweet vintage wine he'd had the pleasure of spicing up his entertainment with. "Please don't do this. Let me live. I want to live," the poor stout man pleaded with a fountain of tears and heavy nasal mucus on his face. In his limp hand, broken from Sean's torture, was a gun—His gun—he'd used to threaten his unwelcome visitor before everything backfired. "I'll give you anything you want. Ten times more than what you earn right now. Listen, I've changed many of your fellows' lives; they now live peacefully with their families, where no one can ever find them. I can do the same with you." He searched Sean's face for hope but none was detected. "Let me go this once, and I promise no one will ever see or hear about me again. Just...please don't kill me.""I'll count to twenty; if you're still breathing, I'll take it as an invite.""Please,

    Tempted? Hell yes, he was. But no way would he take advantage of the situation despite her tempting demands and position: he'd pinned her to the wall by her shoulders so she wouldn't slide to the floor. Her head leaned on the wall with her chin slightly tilted. It took every ounce of him not to smash his lips against hers."Where's your car?""Car?...Easy peasy. Car...car...oh, that's carousel. You...can do better...than that." She slurred with silly laughter.Adam asked in frustration, "How did you get here? Alone? With someone?""Tough one." She giggled. "Very very...tough one. Here...umm, atmosphere. Alone...alone...that's tough."Defeated and left with no choice, Adam swept her off her feet and cradled her close to him bridal style."Ouuu...that is sooo...hot. You are so hot and you...you smell sooo good.""God! I shouldn't have let you consume so much.""Is it...is it okay to say you turn me on?" She giggled again. "I've been...been dying to kiss you for...for the lonnnnggest time

    Sean currently stood nose to nose with one of the Imperiya men in black in the underground battleground. They'd been there for the past five minutes with no talking, no coughing, no shuffling. Just a stoic staring confrontation."You can leave us." A man approached them from a dark bend with slow and steady steps. The kind that left eggshells indifferent when walked upon. His voice was heavy with power and his demeanor stunk of superiority. He said this, and Sean's staring partner instantly walked away, but not without a bow. "Sean Dimitri Vladimir," The man said his name as if he'd known him for ages. If he expected to pull a reaction from the mentioned, he failed big time. The man smirked and nodded his head. "Didn't expect any less from you.""Who are you?" Scrutinizing him, Sean concluded he was no more than fifty-five and no less than forty-five. The ten-year age gap doubt resulted from the wealthy aura he radiated: he looked thoroughly kempt in his hundreds-of-dollars burgundy tu
