I have dresses to go to parties, I do. But this feels like it requires something else. Something that only Jade can help me look for.

That is why I am having a second glass of wine as I wait for her. I want to say she is never late, but that would be a lie.

She pulls over in front of the wine bar. I watch as she gets out of the car and puts on her sunglasses. She parts her hair effortlessly using her hand.

I can't stop staring at her, amazed by her presence. Believe me everyone here is lookin

  • MATCH MADE IN HELL.   CHAPTER SIXTY TWO; ANOTHER FACE TO HIM.

    Rackel is lying on the floor, her hands bound behind her. She is gagged. She notices me and her eyes glisten with tears.I hurry to her side. I untie her, and remove the gag from her mouth. “Run, he is watching you,” she says in panic.“No one is watching. Come on get up,” I try to persuade her. She holds my arm strongly, digging her nails into my skin.“RUN!” her eyes just like her voice are filled with terror.“I am not leaving without you,” I help her up, despite her resistance. “Save yourself. It is too late for me,” she tells me the minute she is up.I am about to argue when she moves ahead to the multiple computer screens. She turns them on. It is a live video feed of every room in my house and office.I cringe and take a step forward. I can’t believe what I am looking at.“What is this?” I ask an obvious question unable to tear my eyes from the screen. “You,” she answers. “He likes watching you,” I raise my hand and cover my mouth, shocked.“Go. If he finds you here who knows w

    I feel groggy. I open my eyes slowly to the blinding lights. He is by my side, and the last time he had held me by force flashes back to me."Not again," I whisper."You are awake," he says smiling."Where am I?" I ask as he helps me sit up. "You are in the hospital," he looks at my side where I was hurt.The wound is properly stitched and bandaged.I remember him drugging me. I trail my fingers to the back of my neck, not sure if it had really happened.The soreness confirms it for me.Just as I am about to question him about it, the door slides open."You are up. How are you feeling?"Amelia asks coming in. "Ready to get out of here," she looks at her file unsure."We still don't know why you passed out," I look at Avan who is staring at me innocently."He drugged me," I say. Amelia looks between us at the revelation. "He what?" She looks confused on how to proceed."I had to get her to the hospital," he says like it is something normal."Well if that's it, then you are free to go,"s

    “Starr,” he calls me like it is just another day. I can’t do this. I run past him before he can say anything else. I don’t know where I am running to, all I know is I need to get away from him.“Hey, hey, hey,” Kerrick stops me at the door. “What is the rush?” Kerrick asks. I look behind me. He is not following me, I relax.“We need to leave,” I grab his arm, and start walking. He pulls me back. My back comes in contact with his chest. “Wait,” his fingers trail along my arm to my hand. He takes my mask which I had forgotten all about.He puts it on for me. He makes me turn around so I can look at him. He wants to say something but I start before he gets a chance, “you were right, this place is dangerous.”He nods, but looks at where I came from. “Okay, let’s leave,” he says, and we walk out.Throughout the drive home, I stay silent. I feel him looking at me, but I assume him. There is nothing I can say to him that will make any of this make sense.He stops in front of my apartment. I

    We are in the third row in the auction hall. “Good evening ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to the auction,” even with the mask on I can tell it is Jaden.He steps down the podium, and a lady dressed in blue takes over. Her voice is charming as it echoes in every corner of the hall.She begins the auction, and everyone goes silent. All the pieces are exquisite but, I have my eyes set on a specific one.The auction is competitive, and brutal. “This is going for fifty thousand dollars,” she says, pointing at the art that had stolen my attention.It is cheaper compared to the other pieces. I don’t hesitate, I raise my pedal. I can feel someone watching me. I resist the urge to look back.“A hundred,” I know who the voice belongs to, the guy in the devil mask.I have never touched the trust fund left by my parents. I have the money, but I am sure if I raise the number, he will raise his and we will keep doing that until I get frustrated or he gets bored.I still hate the fact that the art is

    As I take one last look at myself, I can't help but feel excited. It has been very long since I have felt this way. Kerrick is in my living room waiting patiently for me. As I walk in the living room, he gets up from the couch. His eyes wander from my face down to my body, where they linger. Most of the time he is very hard to read, but not now. He doesn't even have to say it, but he does anyway. "Wow...just wow," I smile at his poorly worded compliment. "Are you ready?" I ask, admiring his new look. I have never seen him looking so official and elegant. "Yes, unless there is someting you would like to add," at his offer, I take a step closer to him. His tie is a bit crooked. I straighten it. I raise my eyes to his face and find that he is already looking at me. "You are ready now," I try not to stutter. He nods. I should step back. I really should, but I don't. I feel his hands come up to my back, his eyes never leaving mine. He leans in, and I don't move away. If I am being ho

Believe me everyone here is looking at her. She is simply magnetic. "Sorry for keeping you waiting hon," she says, drinking the rest of my wine. "Where were you?" she looks around. "The other side of town. I have been trying my best to avoid spending any time at home," she explains. "Why? I thought with Rackel out of the house, you would like it," she takes her sunglasses off revealing bloodshot eyes. "Well, so did I," she looks exhausted. "Turns out my dad is really hard to live with, especially when he is alone. His attenti

    I have been waiting for thirty minutes. "Did he confess?" I hear Kerrick's voice from a far. He notices me and says something to the person he's with. He walks up to me. "I am sorry to have kept you waiting," he doesn't look sorry. I stand and follow him to his office. "What did you want to talk

    One of the reasons I chose psychiatry was there is rarely any kind of emmergency that cannot wait until morning.
