The light only shone on that side, as for the rest of the outhouse, total darkness.

The place was silent, like an abandoned house. His eyes were closed as his fingers tapped gently on the chessboard. It was as if he was tracking the time with each tap he made. The bandage was still wrapped tightly around the palm, and that alone gave him the devil's look.

Suddenly, his nose caught her scent.

The scent he could recognize even if she was in the midst of a zillion crowds.

Velvet kiss.

Her slow footsteps began echoing in his ears, and he knew she was walking in. Her heartbeat was loud, loud enough to reach his ears from the entrance where she was.

    The streetlights shone brightly on the streets. The night ambiance was cool, and the gentle breeze slapped Nelly's skin softly.Nelly had a smile plastered on her face as she took a night stroll. She had decided to walk on foot. The driver left with her car. She'd call him if anything went wrong. It had been a long time since she had come to New York. She missed the city so much. She would have come back a long time ago, but because of something bad, she had to stay with her mother.She reached a pet shop and saw the cats meowing softly at her. She had always been a lover of cats. She wanted to enter the shop, but the sound of the cricket was a reminder that it was late.She turned and made to continue walking when a car drove past her, splashing mud all over her body. "What the!" Nelly yelled, taking off her glasses since the mud splashed on the lenses.The car abruptly stopped, without applying the brakes.Nelly put on her glasses and walked to the car.She tapped gently on the win

    [IXORA'S HOUSE]"Are you planning to wear a long face forever?" Nelly asked, climbing down the stairs with Ixora.She came to New York today, during Aunt Maria's burial, in the cemetery. She followed Ixora home to greet her parents, but they weren't around, unfortunately, and she was about to leave."We were close," Ixora muttered."She can't come back from the dead." She paused, then continued. "Being part of Hazel's plan already made her a betrayer," Nelly said, her words still slow.Ixora looked at her and smiled."I guess I should just move on. It was meant to happen. What about Aunt?" Ixora asked."She didn't come with me," she adjusted her glasses, checking the wall clock. "I will get going now," she said.Ixora hugged her lightly while she left.Ixora stared at her until she was out of sight. Nelly has always been the cute one. She doesn't talk much, but she's always there.She wanted to go back upstairs when the air suddenly grew thick. The environment became cold. She felt li

    "Wait, what?" Audrey asked.She and Skye exchanged meaningful glances."I'm looking for the guy who hugged Ixora," Blake replied, his eyes still glued to the system."This is crazy," Skye muttered.Audrey climbed down. "Let me get this straight, you are looking for a guy who hugged Ixora and has the scent of obsidian veil. How are you even sure he smells like that?""Because I perceived the scent from Ixora after the man had left..." he stopped and faced Audrey. "At the bridge.""Okay, this is madness. You are going mad. How are you even sure he has something to do with Ixora?" "Ixora doesn't hide anything from me. Then, tell me why she didn't tell me about the man. I saw them hugging at the bridge, and when I asked her, I could see she was hesitant," Blake replied."Yunno what, both of you have gone insane. How are you even sure she sees you as more than a friend? You are getting obsessed with her," Audrey said, her voice low with concern."As long as she is the one I'm obsessing ov

    [MILLER'S ESTATE]The luxurious green lawn stretched to the mansion. Heavily built guards patrolled the lawn with their guns drawn. A lady was walking in, a purse held in her hand. Black shades complemented her classy look. The workers were bowing in respect. She positioned her head straight as she walked into the sitting room.Mr. Miller was already in the sitting room as if he were waiting for her.She took off her shades, an arrogant smile on her lips."Georgia," Mr. Miller said, stretching out his hand.Georgia took his hand."So, why did you come?" Mr. Miller asked, sitting down."I have something important to discuss with you," Georgia said, sitting on the couch, placing her left leg on top of the other.Mr. Miller poured them a drink. "We can discuss it over a drink, or is it that important?" he said, handing her a glass.Georgia collected it and took a sip. The drink made her lip gloss redder."So?" "It's about the election.

    [BLACKTHORN AUTOMOBILE, LUNCH TIME]Ixora dried her hands with the hand towel. She wanted to leave the restroom when she caught a reflection of herself in the mirror.She has been cursing Drexton since he stole her first kiss, like it meant absolutely nothing. He had no right to do that to her? His dominant behavior shouldn't be used on her. Like, how dare he?She exhaled. There is a high chance he might finally let her be. Hasn't he succeeded in ruining her life? He destroyed her friendship with Hazel and made her a complete liar, even to Blake. That outhouse was the last time she'd meet up with him, and if he ever tries any shit with her again, she wouldn't hesitate to put him in his place. Even if it means crossing her boundaries.As for Drexton, it is just like he has disappeared after the night.

    "Take off your clothes, play pet," Drexton said, his voice dangerously calm.Time paused.Ixora froze.Just like ice, his words were slowly going into her nerves.Her eyes remained fixed on his, but turned into a glare.Her palms folded into a fist as his words replayed in her head.Each word marking its territory deep into her skin, heart and soul."What. Did. You. Just. Say?" she muttered through clenched teeth. Her eyes threw daggers at him.Drexton sank deeper into the chair. "Take off your clothes, play pet," he repeated. Same voice. Same aura. Ixora's eyes turned red, and she stood. "To hell with you," she said, and flipped the table upside down.The whole content on the table came crashing to the ground, and Drexton didn't even for once flinch, nor did his gaze leave her."What do you even take me for? If you know your hug comes with a price, you could have declined to hug me. Why hug me when you know I have a fucking price to pay? You are nothing but a sadist who derives joy
