I do not suffer from insanity, I enjoy every minute of it.

"Why not just kill her?" Mason, my right hand questioned as I made a drink for myself.

His question was straight and logical but what he didn't knew was that my sister is coming to meet his brother today. And, I don't want to be covered in blood when my sister will see me.

Taking a sip of the drink that burned my throat and inside as it drowned deeper. "Aleeza is coming." I answered his questions and he shut his mouth in understanding.

"But what did she do?" Rowan asked, more like demanded.

"She witnessed a murder." I told him and took another sip of my drink. Rowan kept staring at me for more explanation and I wanted to flip him off but decided otherwise. I don't want tk be in a sour mood when Aleeza arrives. "I committed." I added for him.

"Done," Lucas said when he returned from locking the woman with big violet eyes. I've never seen eyes like hers. Those black hairs of her made her violet eyes stand out. She looked nothing more than 5'5 but ran pretty faster for her little legs, last night.

Guess the fear for life pushes you past your limits.

"The boy you killed last night," Mason started and stopped waiting for my attention I nodded looking at him, "He was her classmate." He finished.

"Makes sense." I muttered chucking the rest of the liquid down my throat and the liquor made sure to tell me how it went down sith the burning sensation it created inside my body.

"The man you were using as a toy," Mason said referring to the snitch who betrayed us a few months ago during a gang war. His betrayal costed us the life of three of my men.

Since, then I started playing with him since he is so fond of playing the don himself, I thought it is my duty to keep my, once used to be trusted, man entertained.

I guess he didn't really enjoyed my company since he isn't available to play anymore. "Cause of death?" I asked him taking the gun out of my waist band.

"Probably the blood that you drained out of him on daily basis through little cuts? Or, was it the way you peeled his skin off with a knife?" Mason said, sarcastically. He hates it when he has to do all this paperwork shit. He likes to be involved physically in the matters.

"I am sure it was just a heart attack, Mason." I said and a dark low chuckle escaped his lips as he agreed with my statement.

How are they going to make a skin-less dead body look like a result of heart attack? They'll probably throw it in the forest and pay their generosity to the birds and animals of that dark forest.

"Where is that Waldo? " The cheerful voice of my little sister reached my ears and I immediately threw the gun to Lucas who was quick to tuck it in his waistband under his shirt.

"Here, sorellina." I called and soon enough she was standing in front of me with her brows furrowed and arms crossed against her chest.

"Where were you?" She demanded the answers trying to sound threatening when all she sounded like was an adorable baby.

It's been almost a month since I last saw her. She lives with my parents in the mansion next to the penthouse of our oldest brother. She basically lives on her own since our parents are mostly out on some vacations.

"I've been busy." I answered scratching the back of my neck with a guilty smile playing on my lips.

She rolled her eyes and moved further wrapping her arm around my torso and I hugged her back, immediately.

Aleeza is a person who hugs almost everyone she sees. Seems like she never understood or figured out how handshake works. Even better, how the art of ignorance works.

"Now, I'll stay for next one week." She announced breaking the hug and beaming at my three guys standing behind her.

"Give me a hug, big boys." She told to all of them and the three of them gathered around her suppressing her in a gentle, loving hug.

"Is everything okay?" I asked to make sure that she is here just for a visit and not because she is bothered by some issue.

"Yeah, mom and dad went on a vacation for next month so I decided to visit you to remind you about your sister." She answered and a smile tugged on my lips as I nodded at her confident explanation, hinting everything is just like she mentioned.

Jogging in the mansion she headed upstairs to the room beside mine which is only reserved for her, for whenever she decides to stay overnight.

"Deal with the body of David." I said referring to the rat who died last night and is still laid in my basement. Mason nodded.

"What about the girl?" Lucas queried and I moved a lazy hand on my jaw line thinking about my sister upstairs and the girl in the basement.

"I guess, the girl in the basement got lucky." Rowan commented before I could ponder on my thoughts and finding no other choice than ignoring her for a week, I nodded after his statement.

Guess, the little cat got lucky.

    Two months later..."You are hot." Iris' mother complimented Lorenzo and he blushed under the judgmental gaze of his girlfriend's mother."Daisy!"

Lorenzo thanked the couple, genuinely."Oh come on, you are proposing her. We need to be here." Mrs. Emerson shrugged."You better take care of my little daisy or I will kill you." Mr. Emerson threatened and a death warning coming from such a sweet person absolutely had an deep impact.Lorenzo nodded his head as he assured the couple, "I will always take care of her. And, if any day I fail, you are free to take my life."

    What we lived through is living in us. -Unknown. |I R I S|"I have a surprise for you." Both Lorenzo and Rowan said in unison. While Rowan had a big ass smile on his face regarding the same, Lorenzo had an evil smirk plastered on his face. I stared up at them, confused. "What surprise?" Lucas asked on my behalf. "Wait!" Rowan exclaimed and quickly rushed outside the mansion, leaving the three of us behind to wait for him. He returned with two people on his tail, but he was blocking my view so I could not really see them, until he stepped aside letting me take in my surprise. "Oh my god!" The words left my lips when I saw Tori and Vince standing at a few meter distance.Tori was wearing a yellow top and black jeans while Vince on the other hand was dressed formally, like going on a business trip. I waited no more time before I rushed to them and pulled Tori in a none crushing hug. She hugged me back, happily. "I am so happy that

    An eye for an eye and the whole world goes blind. -Gandhi. |I R I S|"Good morning," A husky and drowsy voice greeted me in my sleep. My eyes fluttered open and I smiled, contently, at the beautiful sight in front of me. He was hovering my body and nuzzled his face in the crook of my neck when I gave him a smile. His nose tickled my sensitive skin, pulling out a giggle from me. My hands found their to his back and I sighed in pleasure as he marked my translucent skin with his torturous kisses. He took hold of my both hands in his one and pinned them above my head. His eyes gazed into mine for a fleeting second before he leaned down and crashed his lips against mine, holding me caged under his huge body. "God! I missed you." He whispered against my lips before he shoved tongue inside my mouth, ravishing it. I was completely at his mercy and he was merciless. His free hand explored my half naked body as his hand travelled from my s

    Peace be upon those who hand pick their words, for fear of hurting anyone. -Unknown.|I R I S|Today, I am going to talk to Marcus. Because, umm, I kind of got distracted from the mental note I made last night. Anyways, I wore my white crop and black jeans before I headed towards his room. Marcus, I mean. Marcus' room is right opposite to Lorenzo's. The mansion is silent today, as if, people are still asleep. Most importantly Rowan. He is the only one who keeps this mansion alive with his cheerful screams when his favourite team wins a match, or when he running away from the other mam whoever he has pissed or annoyed in the mansion on the specific days. Once, I was standing in front of Marcus' room, I heaved out a long breath and lifted my hand to knock on his door. I waited for him to open the door while I thought about all the things I can possibly talk to him about. His sister? All the things starts from her and end on her. I was bu

    I want you. Your bones. Your body heat. The bite marks your teeth leave, to see how bad and beautiful those eyes look beneath me. -Beau Taplin. |I R I S|After spending the whole day together inside the room with Rowan, talking and watching movies, we finally came out of that hole at night, during the dinner time. Lorenzo, Lucas and Marcus were already sitting at the dinner table, waiting for us while the servants served the food. Lorenzo's eyes immediately came to meet mine as if he has suddenly got some super natural powers to know about my whereabouts. I descended the stairs with Rowan on my tail. When we reached the dinner table, Rowan was quick to take a swat right next to Marcus, who by the way looked very lost and was barely eating. I made a mental note to have a conversation with him after dinner. I sat down next to Lorenzo on the dinning table, his heavy gaze ready to burn a hole in my head with the intensity he is watching me.

    A loss is not always a lesson. Sometimes it's just a tragedy. -Unknown. |I R I S|I saw through my half open lids as he immediately rushed to me in the burning house. Vince."Iris!" He called out again but my body feels so hot and exhausted that it feels almost impossible for me to say anything. The wound in my chest hurts so much, "Iris, open your eyes." Vince patted my cheeks as he tried to get me back to my senses. Vince looked worried. Sick worried. Like with me, he himself is going to get admitted in the hospital along with me. If we would even reach there in time. "Fuck!" He cursed and if he is cursing then the matter is really worse. Because Vince does not curse. I have never heard him curse except the one time when Tori fell down the stairs. Vince was scared for her because he thought she is going to die and leave him alone. He might not say it but it is very obvious that he loves his sister so much. Tori is lucky to have h
