LEVI’Everything happened so fast, I was driving home and then suddenly I was stranded in the middle of the road with a wretched car and injured body.The car that hit mine wasted no time in zooming off and I was left to fend for myself, drunk, severely injured, under a heavy downpour and with a wretched car.I tried multiple times to start the car but it wouldn’t budge so I was left with no choice but to get out of it before another car would come crashing into me again.I winced at the unbearable pain in my hand as I tried to move it toward the door handle. Every part of my body was begging me to stay still and not move but I couldn’t risk it, I had to leave the car. It could even flame up for all I know so I forced myself to act.Getting hold of the door handle, I pushed the door open with whatever strength I had left and in no time the rain was hitting my face. Miraculously, the headlight was still on even after the ghastly accident. I could see how damaged the car was, which ma
ALEXA I could hear her voice as he led her out , deep somewhere in my mind I was filled with jealousy up till the moment I couldn't bear Athena laughter anymore and plugged my iPod in.After a long while it grew silent…As I walked down the stairs, I kept wondering if anyone was around. I had been in the quiet house since morning trying to keep myself busy.“Mia! Is there any food around here?” I asked Mia to call out as I walked further down the stairs. “Mia!” I called out again.I began to check around the house looking for Mia but to no avail. She was nowhere to be found. I noticed that the house was empty as it was as silent as the graveyard.Ever since I was made to stay in the penthouse, this was the first time it was this way. Mia was usually in the penthouse with me. It felt so lonely here. I went over to the kitchen and saw that there was no food. My stomach grumbled immediately at that thought. I went ahead to the fridge and also saw that it was empty. “I need to get some
LEVISomething was up, I could feel it.As I walked into the living room, there was an unsettling silence in the house. It seemed so odd that the whole house was in pin drop silence when I walked in. Well, the house was usually quiet, especially now that Alexa was locked in. However, it had been almost two minutes since I walked in just like that, Mia would have left whatever she was doing to check who it was.As I started to walk up the stairs, I saw Mia coming down. “Well look, we have it here.” I said.“What? Brother, I locked the door this time. It’s creepy that you have a spare key, so you can come in at any time.” She said as we both stopped walking.“Yes. I believe I can.” I replied. I noticed how she was sweating profusely and my suspicion arose even higher. Her hands were shivering and she looked like she just ran a lot of miles.“Mia.”“Hmmm?” She replied.“Mia.” I raised one of my eyebrows and looked straight into her eyes.“W…what?”“What were you doing before I came?” I a
LEVI I finally decided to go with Mia's decision of treating Alexa nicely.I had been distant and been giving her a cold shoulder for too long. Going with Mia's decision was going to be hard but I was ready to give it a shoot. I had been up since around 2 am but I haven't left my bed yet. Stretching my limbs and yawning widely, I climbed out of bed and then groped my way towards the bathroom to clean up before heading downstairs to get a bottle of water. I discovered last night my water supply had gone low and so I couldn't drink a glass of water as I had always done for a long time now. Getting water from the kitchen was not the problem, I was just too lazy to go for it but I was going to push that laziness aside and get it this morning before anything else. After cleaning up, I walked into my room and then changed into a pair of shorts and vest. Grabbing my phone, I began to heed for the door.I had barely taken two steps when I saw Alexa walking towards my direction.She wa
ALEXAWhen I left Levi's room, I went straight to the kitchen to join Mia who was making breakfast for us.I was supposed to be the one but because I had cut my fingers the previous night, she opted to take my place saying I would replace her when it was her turn.Immediately I stepped in, she raised her head in my direction and without her asking, I already knew what she wanted to say and so I gave her a nod.I watched as her lips twisted into a smile. If not for her, I wouldn't have gone to see Levi. She was the one who pushed me, giving me reasons on why I should meet him despite my strong resolution not to do so.While she went about making the food, I helped in cleaning the house.By the time I was done, food was ready and so I joined her on the dining table. "This is heavy" I commented and she nodded in response.I was used to eating a light breakfast of cereal, pancakes, omelet and sometimes bread. Each time it was her turn to cook, she always made a large breakfast as if s
LEVIEver wondered how it felt to despise something, yet at the same time can't live without it?At that moment I felt the exact same way, it was hard to describe but the mere sight of her did things to me that my lips felt so numb to describe, it was as though she was reaching right out to touch my soul.The Truth had to be told, she was a very charming woman. One part of me was completely sold out to the fact that she was mine and I could have her any time I wanted . Still another part of me wanted to hate her for just her family sake, it was as though two parts were right there in my chest—Good and bad—conflicting within themselves."You look so —" The rest of my words were lost in the deeper part of my soul, the darkest part from fear that spilling then would let out a part of me I thought should be dead.She had a smile that disappeared as quickly as my word's had."You were going to say something." She muttered. "Am I not dressed well enough?" In a way I couldn't describe, a wa
LEVI "Didn't expect to see you here." One part of me didn't want to stop and look him right in his face but at that moment, I wasn't left with much of a choice.It was either I gave him the attention he wanted and get away or he'd be on my case all evening, most certainly the latter was something I didn't want.The last thing anyone would want was to have a man like him trailing you all evening.He had a good look at Alexa, I could very much tell what was going through his mind from the way he looked at her lustfully.At some point, I felt like hitting the smug look away from his face if he didn't stop ."What do you want, Zale?" I asked, sounding a bit spiteful.Anyone close to us would probably know that all we held toward each other was a grudge's lot of it that could consume either of us.I had just one rule and it boldly stated, stay away from Zale, I had known Zale ever since I had known good from evil and the truth was he was in the darker part of life. "You have a very b
ALEXA“You’re all mine,” He breathed those words against lips and I let him, I let him take every bit of my lips like he owned it, I did that without holding anything back.A rumble of satisfaction traveled up his throat and he pressed himself closer to take my mouth. For a moment I could hear the heart beating and I couldn't tell which was different, his or mine—All I could tell was the fact that it was beating as one.Soon we heard what seemed like a feminine voice from behind us.Levi was the first to turn. "What are you doing here?" He was a bit surprised to see his sister standing right there.I looked a bit startled seeing her there as well, as she didn't mention anything about coming but still I kept whatever emotions that were racing through my mind."Well, I got invited by a friend." She answered.If there was anyone that looked more puzzled about the whole situation it was most definitely Levi."And who will that be?" Levi asked, looking a bit surprised. "Don't bother kn
