Our team name was Lighters and theirs was matched. Funny right! Ours was chosen by Alan. Theirs was chosen by Norah. I pulled my hair up into a high ponytail, While I'm doing that I felt eyes on me. I turned around to see the pair of blue eyes staring me intensely while removing his shirt off his body and wearing a T-shirt. I tried hard not to look at his toned muscles and his perfect abs. His eyes weren't moving from my face, even though we stood far from each other I could see the corner of his pink lips moving upward. I gulped and turned around coming face to face with Penelope. She was watching us all this while. She smirked and walked towards everyone. I took a deep breath and relaxed. I walked to others while moving my strands over my ears.The first twenty minutes our game was head to head with the score Five to Five."Run Darwin!" I shouted at him as Boris slammed me to the ground. Hitting his arms, I said "Get up, get up" laughing, he moved and I stood up. I saw Darwin hit
In just these few days Roman and I have been so close to each other, I don't know how but it just happened. The kid has grown on me, it's hard to stay away from a kid like him and he was warming up to me. I made him tell his favorite things like food, clothing, games, etc. He is the silent type but when he smiles, he's the most adorable thing on this entire planet. He never talks much. Once I asked Penelope about this once. She said that he was like this from the day when his mother left him. This made me realize why Nikolai is so fond of him, it's because he sees himself in him. He knows the feeling, and I can clearly see him trying to help Roman. They both are in the same place, they are going through the same pain, their mothers have left them and the problem is they never tried to talk it out. In the past few days, things between Nikolai and me were pretty awkward. Whenever he's around, I stay quiet or try to ignore him, but there's always some tension in the air. One can cut
We both with Alan and Ivan were sitting in the living room on the sofa in a circle. Roman and Dimitri were playing beside us unbothered.For the past 2 hours, we were planning to make that bitch apologize to Flora but couldn't agree with any plan we make. I was trying to remember my favourite plans from movies I saw but at the right time, nothing came to my mind.Penelope's plan has blown my mind, I immediately said I didn't like it."It's the best idea, Trust me," she said very confidently."No...No let's not do that," I said, looking at them as I shook my head. They were looking at me with a frown. "This...is the best idea that I've come up with," she said with a frown on her face."Yes, this is the best idea Ness," Alan said, fully supporting Penelope's idea."No! This is the worst idea," I said."That was a brilliant idea," Ivan said nodding his head at Penelope."No No have you guys lost it, she may get hurt if we do this," I said,"Trust me, it's the best Idea she has to suffer
Before they could help her Nikolai was at her side in a second, helping her to get up. "What happened?" He asked her."That stupid dog chased me…(she peeked at me.)..she said something to him," She said which made my jaw drop. Before I could say it wasn't me, Mr-Women-killer had cut me off showing his hand to my face. The look on his face made tears roll in my eyes. Still, I tried to open my mouth to speak. "Don't" he said, I can clearly understand that it was a dangerous warning. The way he just said it has scared me. He believed her, He believed that all this..was done by me. I thought to myself.Why won't he? Who are you to him? Nothing, you're nothing to him. Why will he believe you over his girlfriend? Said my subconscious.Standing there like a statue, I watched him taking her in his arms and climbing the stairs.I feel Penelope and others standing beside me,"That bitch, I'll fucking kill her right now," said Penelope, Darwin grabbed her hand and stopped her."Don't! The boss
"Why?" He asked me, looking straight into my eyes. I gulped and tried to open my mouth and say something to defend myself but my voice wasn't coming out at all. His ocean blue eyes were staring into mine trapping me with it. I couldn't move nor talk because of his intense stare. With all my will power, I tried to open my mouth once more. I...(swallowing the lump in my throat) I didn't do anything," I said to him while looking in the eye and with a serious expression on my face. Leaning close until he reached my ear, "Don't Lie," He whispered while pressing his cheek to mine. I soundly swallowed and said, "I'm not lying" My hands were fisted and my nails were digging into my skin. "You're lying" He whispered as his lips brushed against my earlobe. I put my hands against his chest and pushed him back with all my strength. He stumbled back. I turned around to run, but Nikolai caught me by my arm and spun me around, my legs hit the bed and I was about to fall on Roman but Nikolai's ar
"Please come out now Venessa, we will be late" I heard Penelope yelling from my bedroom. I stared at my reflection in the mirror and felt a little uncomfortable in this dress. "Can you give me another dress, this one is a bit slutty" I yelled back. The dress was Black and kinda shiny clothes with low sleeves and a low plunging V-neck with high slits below the waist. The back plunged low showing my entire skin. "No, it's Not. Come out now, or I'll break this door," She yelled, I rolled my eyes and walked out and stood in front of her."See? This is too slutty," I said, turning around and showing off the dress to Penelope. I glanced at Penelope to see her simply standing there with wide eyes."You look so beautiful," she said, admiring me.I smiled at her, "Thank you… but this is too revealing," I complained. She smiled at me, "No Ven, it fits you perfectly and you look gorgeous...Trust me." She made me sit and did my make up and hair. After that she made me stand up "Let's go, we
"Enzo," I whispered while looking at him talking to the woman. He was smiling, and I saw that he was…happy. The spark in his eyes, while he was talking to her, was visible from where I'm sitting. It made me turn my head in another direction so that I couldn't see them. I hid my tears from the people around me. The hurt was hurtful for me to control. I had been waiting for him for days and now I see him with another woman, Smiling and enjoying her company. It hurts, It hurts so much. I gripped the hem of my dress tightly to control myself. I tried to forget that I'd seen him here with other women. I tried so hard to erase it from my mind but it keeps on popping in my head. My head was burning with all the thoughts of him with her living happily in his mansion. I don't know why but all this stupid thought running in my head. I tried to convince myself that, No, she might be his friend or relative. But my mind refuses to believe it. "Venessa?" I turned to the one who called and saw Pe
He smirked and moved back, suddenly I felt someone's gaze on us. I gulped and tried to ignore it. My grip on his hand tightened. He sensed my nervousness and moved me even closer to his body. "Are you okay?" He whispered, I looked at him and shook my head. He took my hand in his and walked us out of the dance floor. He was walking us through the people to the backyard. We were about to walk but suddenly Nikolai stopped walking and was released from his grip. Curiously I moved forward and came face to face with Lorenzo. He was looking at Nikolai with a very calm expression on his face, The look on his face was deadly. If I was Nikolai, I would've run from him but Nikolai was staring at Enzo with the same intensity. There was something in between them which made others around them alert. Like any moment they may kill each other. The tension between them was felt and it's kinda scary. Both are off the same height and if they stand in front of each other, it's very intimidating to watc
