“You must be joking. You never owned a club.”

Despite the strong punch of embarrassment I feel deep in my guts, I still force myself to play it cool.

There's no way that Bryce will ever be allowed to witness me in my other versions. He's only allowed to witness the fierce version of me. The version of me that he can't read; the version of me that he had known for years.

He's my competition. He has always been my competition. It has to stay that way.

“Woman, do I look like joking to you? Am I laughing? Did I even utter something funny? No, right?” He smirks at me. And even if the whole club is only lit by the playful colorful lights, I can see every inch of his lips and the boastful attack it tends to hit me. “It's been years, Aurella. Do you think that you're still aware of everything?” I remain on my ground. He's not deserving of the words that come out of my mouth. “Everything has changed. For me, and for you too.” I don't like the way he's speaking. The tone he's using sounds like

    “So how is it going to be now? What’s your next step?”Vincent wraps his naked body with a robe, not caring if he’s wearing it properly or not.“Next step?” I ask back. I know that he’s asking about what I’m going to do to get back at Bryce.But as of now, I can admit to myself that I’d rather let my anger burn my insides than challenge Bryce for what he’s done to me.I can admit that this time, I don’t know what to do.I pull the sheets up to my shoulder to fully cover my body too.Vincent and I just agreed to not talk about Bryce and just fuck inside his room. I think it’s much more better than stressing on things that are not in my control.And besides, this is the last time that we’re doing this. We agreed on finally stopping since we both know that Bryce can use this against us.I know that sooner or later, he will be that desperate to use everything against me.Anything just to send me to hell, and to witness my downfall.“You’re not giving up, are you?” Vincent sits on the edge

    “He did what?!”As I step out of the elevator, Vincent follows every step I take while he continues to absorb the information that I have given him.We’re currently exiting the building of my penthouse, and Vincent here just arrived moments ago.According to him, he rushed all the way here after Bryce sent him a message that I might need Vincent’s help.And of course the text left him wondering because he had never mentioned my name to Bryce and everything that’s in between us.Well that’s according to him though. But according to my guts? I shouldn’t believe Vincent even though he told me the truth about the love triangle of Lucas, Dahna, and Isequel.“Do I have to repeat myself again and again, Vincent? I think I clearly told you that your friend just kicked me out.”Irritation is starting to bubble inside me. I get irritated many times regarding different things, but when it comes to Vincent, it’s just different.The kind of different that makes me want to wrap my arm around his ne

    After I watch Lucas checked in the nearest hotel, I drive myself home as the clock strikes at 2 o’clock in the morning.I know that my intention was to celebrate in that bar, but instead, it ended up being the last straw that I’ve given myself to finally move on.If I still can’t get over him after a few weeks or months, I’ll willingly label him as the greatest shame of my life.Oh well. As if I’m not yet immune by scrutiny. My life is filled with it. Whether from people I don’t know, or people that I call ‘family’.As I turn on the lights, I dramatically fall on my knees and shriek as loud as I could.“Ah!!!” My heart beating so fast while looking at the person comfortably sitting on the couch.“Jesus Christ!” He rants; his eyes squinting because of the bright lights that I’ve just turned on.“WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING HERE?!” I loudly question his existence in my living room.How did he get inside?“Calm down, will you?” He smirks; expression clearly influenced by alcohol that he p

    “Of course he wouldn’t dare. He knows I’ll do anything to protect Aurella from him.”In a blink of an eye, Lucas’ puzzled face in confusion changes into the bold aura of confidence.“He knows how serious I am. Especially when it’s about my wife.” He arrogantly smirks before stealing a bottle of whiskey from the bucket placed above the table.I immediately knew what he’s trying to do. I can read between the lines, and it’s not hard to comprehend that he’s trying to make Dahna think that she’s right.That we indeed got married, and that he never left me in the altar wearing my white gown stained with shame and regrets.Isequel secretly eyes me with both of his eyebrows slightly arched. He’s also quick to pick up the pretending that Lucas has started. And with the look he’s giving me, I bet he’s accusing me of being the one behind all of it.“Wife?” Isequel tempts to clarify if what he heard was right.“Yes,” Lucas answers with so much certainty. “Wife. She’s my wife.” He turns to me; ey

    “There you are! I’ve been looking for you. What took you so long?”Both Dahna and I turn to the man that took both of our attention.And my heart almost jumped out of its cage when my eyes center on Isequel.He quickly kisses Dahna’s temple, and girlie here softly giggles as I watch her mood switch from being friendly to being lovey dovey.Are my eyes deceiving me right now?Dahna? And Isequel? They’re a thing?So… Vincent wasn’t lying to me afterall.He had once again had proven his loyalty.But still, it isn’t enough for me. I know that he can still switch to the other side and choose to betray me.Anytime is the time that a traitor could struck at me. And I wouldn’t let that happen. Let him be loyal; let him be my pet.I simply take another sip on my pina colada, but then Isequel decides to give me a hint of his attention.“Oh, Aurella. Wow, I never thought I’d see you hanging out with Dahna one day.”I almost choke on my drink.Mister, I wasn’t hanging out with your girl. She sud

    "Can you stay with me until midnight?"With disbelief reigning all over my body, I stare at Lucas and watch him shrug off the fact that he just kissed me.He shrugged it off as if it meant nothing to me."Come sit here with me." His hand gently pulls me by my wrist, and he guides me to a table where no one else is occupying.All I can see are empty bottles of whiskey and some cigarettes that are halfway finished."You smoke now?" It's not a surprise to me anymore since some of his old friends before had told me about his desire to use cigarettes as his stress reliever. But I still can't bring myself not to ask.He sits down as he pulls me to sit beside him. "I'm trying to distract myself from reality these days. But unfortunately, I really can't. I can't even finish a stick."Wow. Trying to distract himself from reality? How heavy is his baggage? And how is he not capable of finishing a stick? I suppose two half finished sticks can be counted as one, right?"Alright, if you say so." I'
