Tabitha:

I stared at it; every alarm in my head was going off. It was really a gun. A real… gun.

“M-Maybe… Maybe it is fake. L-Like a prop or decorative piece or something?”

I swallowed hard, reached out my hand and touched it. I recoiled almost immediately. The barrel was cold. Ice cold, metallic and hard. I looked at my fingers, watching them shake. I touched… a gun.

    Tabitha:I stared at it; every alarm in my head was going off. It was really a gun. A real… gun.“M-Maybe… Maybe it is fake. L-Like a prop or decorative piece or something?”I swallowed hard, reached out my hand and touched it. I recoiled almost immediately. The barrel was cold. Ice cold, metallic and hard. I looked at my fingers, watching them shake. I touched… a gun. Was it used to kill someone? My… My fingerprints are on it now. Did that make me a criminal, a suspect? My hands flew to my mouth. “Oh, my…”I reached out to grab it, but I stopped myself. Should… should I wash it? I… I can’t have my fingers on a weapon. Maybe I should… no, that wouldn’t work. That would make things worse. What if I…“Tabitha?” There was a knock at the door and then a soft click as it opened. “What the fuck is taking you so long. The meal is here, and I don’t want your Daddy calling me and asking why I hadn't fed his…”I turned to Natasha, who was standing near the bed, clutching her coat and a refille

    Enzo:“Someone is going to kill me?” I repeated, almost unimpressed and disappointed that he wasted my time. “Yes,” Collin replied, his face stiff, his gun now beside him. “I would suggest that you watch your back and be careful of who you talk to and associate with.”I raised a brow, my eyes traveling from the gun beside him to his face and then back to the gun. “I don’t want to be rude with this ‘oh so important’ information that you have given me,” I replied, trying my best not to sound mocking in such a precarious situation, “but you shot at me while I was trying to head into my car this evening. I have a broken window to prove it.”Collin smiled, picked up the gun and ran a finger along the silver barrel. It was dark, the cloud cover was thick, and it was pouring now, the rain hammering hard against the window, and yet, the silver barrel caught the light there was and seemed to shine. “I know, Mr. Ross. I never removed myself from the equation, so you should watch yourself and

    Tabitha:“A… A kidney. That’s…”“A lie? A fluke? That no one as wicked and witchy as me could ever care so much about someone to the point of giving them a kidney?” I made a face. It was like she had read me like a book in one glance. She stood up, still in only a pair of red silk panties, and walked to the TV. She opened a cupboard, rummaged for a while and pulled out some papers. I watched her as she stood, looking through them, her hands shaking slightly, before she walked back towards me and shoved them in my hands. "Have a look. I'm a lot of things, but a liar isn't one of them." Her voice was sad, angry. She refused to meet my gaze and headed upstairs. I sat there and looked through all the papers. It was legitimate, written right here in Medical jargon. She did give her father a kidney, and from the looks of it, some bone marrow as well.I flipped another page. It was copies of countless requests sent out to a Miss Hilda Bolden, but they were all unanswered. I couldn't fi

    Enzo:I packed up my desk quietly. The day had moved so slowly, and I just wanted to go home and get some rest. My phone sat on the table. I had purposely decided not to put it into my pocket. I was hoping that she would call, and she would text with an apology. She knew how I felt about her going, about her getting involved, but she chose to go anyway. I left angry and upset. The least that she could give me was an apology for how brash she was acting. But hours had already passed. My phone had been face up like that since she left, and there was nothing.“I should have known better,” I sighed, finally grabbing it and looking at it one last time before I shoved it into my pocket. “She is probably already in a brawl with Natasha. I knew this was going to end badly the moment she agreed to it.”I shrugged and grabbed the last file. There was nothing that I could do now. I had given my word, and I was still mad. I had never felt this angry, this ignored. I flopped back into my chair and

    Tabitha:I made a face at the waiting car outside. This was it. I was finally going to expose the witch. The driver stepped out and opened the front door, his face stiff and unsmiling. "Miss Hyest," he said in a calm and professional voice. I nodded and got in. Natasha was sitting quietly, legs crossed, lips in a smile as she looked me up and down. "I didn't think that this would be the kind of day that we'd be having," she smirked. "Dad packed you an overnight bag so that you'd be cozy. How sweet of him." I glared at her but her smile only grew wider. She was enjoying this. "I will make it clear for the last time," I said, with a deathly calm, even though every fibre of me wanted to lunge at her and attack, "I will only answer to Tabitha and I will not have you talk about Enzo like that. Got it?" She pouted and batted her eyelashes. "Did I get his little plaything upset? Awwn. How sweet." I turned away from her and pressed myself as close as I could to the other door. A futi

    Tabitha:The workday felt like it was dragging on. The files kept piling up, and even though I finished them quickly, more kept coming, kept piling, like the universe was doing everything that it could to keep me in the office.Enzo had sent a few text messages, but I was still too mad at him to reply. I knew that things had been rough for us, but that didn’t mean that we would hear of a kidnapping and just act like it didn’t bother us. We knew the truth. There was a very high possibility that this whole thing was orchestrated by Natasha. “I hope Andrew is doing okay.” I groaned, resting my head in my hands and sighing. What if they were hurting him, beating him… Oh my god…There was a knock at my door, and I called from inside. It creaked open softly, and Nora walked in, holding a file. Her face was a cheery pink, but as soon as she saw me, her lips went into a hard line, and the cheer on her face went ice cold. “I was asked to give this to you,” she said coldly, dropping the file

    Tabitha:I lay on my bed looking at the ceiling. My face burned and every passing second, I played that moment in my head. We nearly kissed. I can't believe we nearly kissed and it was all my fault. I led him on. I was the one that suggested it and he was simply doing what I suggested, and as if th

    Enzo:The stars were shining brightly in the sky. The part was filled with the smell of the blossoming flowers. I couldn’t remember the number of times that I told myself that I was going to come here, but I hadn't had the time to get around doing it. The air was cool and crisp, the moon was a cre

    Tabitha:I had been enjoying myself but now this bitch just had to show up .I set my fork down; suddenly I wasn't so interested in the food anymore. She glared at me across the table but just like a chameleon, she beamed at Enzo like she hadn't just done anything wrong .“I could almost swear that

    Enzo:We got the menu and while I looked through it, I couldn't take my eyes off Tabitha. I recognized the waiter as soon as he bumped into her and I couldn't say that I was happy to see him. The jealous feeling I felt seeing him with her at the launch seemed to roll back into my mind. Tabitha sai
