A blank look etched on her face, holding the hot knife in her firm fist, Simone entered the room in calm steps. But her breathing went from high to low as she looked at the fine interior designing of the room, and the exquisite architecture of the place. Even with the temperature of the room falling below her tolerance due to the shirtless man in front of her, she couldn’t help but be lured by his taste of class. It was highly sophisticated but simple at the same time.“Poor, Poor Baby Ash, got severe wounds due to the cash,” she sang melodramatically pointing her one index finger around the room.She halted in front of the four-poster bed, and lowering herself a bit, she traced Ashton’s ankles with the tip of the blood. He became rigid as she kept her eyes glued to him while the blade moved on his silk trousers now and he shut his eyes. Merely, in a hope that she won’t cut his pants now."Out!" She ordered Shane and straightened herself.Ashton jerked his eyes open and saw her giving
“Can you stop hogging the food as you’ve never eaten before?” Rex said, frustrated with the sound Simone made while eating.At 10 in the night, the farm-house appeared to be mourning a loss no one was aware of. The place filled with deadly silence as all the occupants sat at the dining table for the dinner but apart from one no one was actually eating. They all were busy figuring out the cause behind the Mafia Girl eating making so much of noise as she chewed the noodles like a kid. Certainly, she wasn’t starving but for a well-dressed woman, she surely lacked table manners, and it irked each of them to no bounds.From grabbing the silverware to turning of the plate to serve herself, she made so much noise that they had wanted to stab her in the head for being so ignorant of her surroundings. But seeing that grin on her face, they knew she did it purposely to rile them up. Such a bitch!“You’re right, I haven’t actually fed myself on free food for a while now.” She laughed.Rex and Al
The morning after Simone woke up earlier than her routine and right away, after doing her morning chores with some sore muscles, she headed into the Walk-in-closet to change into her workout shorts and top. Once done, she tied her hair in a long ponytail and looked at her reflection for quite some time as if trying to read the plans rummaging in her own mind.That ghost of a smile was quite a permanent member of her lips and there was no one who could erase it. Apart from one man! But she knew, she wasn’t ever giving him the opportunity to play with her mind or even that playful organ called heart because it was supposedly not for any auctions.At least, not for any man to turn it around, and smack it as he wished.With that resolve set in her mind when she made her way to the pool area to find Simone and Shanzy cycling together side by side. As per her demand, her gym equipment’s were brought late in the night and as she liked to run on her treadmill under the gorgeous blue sky, it w
A little while later after an alone breakfast in his room, Ashton stood in front of the dresser checking on his wounds. He winced from time to time as he tried to apply an ointment given to him by Shane. Funny! The Security guy appeared to be friendly than ever but that didn’t lessen the worry with his involvement with Simone. For all he knew, it could be a trap spread by Simone to get the proves from him but every time, he looked at Shane and Shanzy, he felt bad for the two people. They didn’t deserve to be humiliated. But he was in no position to help anyone. Heck! He needed help himself.“Damn! This is worse than I thought,” he muttered in despair and turned around to find Simone standing at the door, still dressed in the horrible workout shorts she wore earlier in the morning.He pried his eyes away already regretting staring at her flawless skin before like he wanted to kiss every inch of it. She was leaning against the door frame while he moved further to his bed to wear his shi
Simone sat on the stool in front of the large vanity mirror attached to the room with a permanent scowl plastered on her face. The beauticians surrounded her moving their magic wands on her already perfectly shaped structure. She eyed the thick makeup brushes, hair straightener, and curlers, as they worked their way on her elegant face and hair. She limited her deadly looks for Alice and her team while the girls were giving her stern looks so that she’d cooperate. But this was Simone Thompson, someone who lacks the word cooperation from her vocabulary.Having enough, Simone swatted Alice's hand away and discarding the tweezer, she roared, "Now do you plan to shred my skin or what? For how long you are going to do my eyebrows?"Her tone depicted an extreme amount of frustration, while the females gave disapproving looks to Alice. For more than an hour, they have been trying to bring her to sit straight, but her hands were continuously working their way on her mobile keyboard. Throughout
"She's the show stopper you guys have hired then why did she run away like this?" Allison inquired; her tone laced with curiosity.She eyed her fiancé from the corner of her eyes to see him having a thoughtful look etched on his face, while her brother seemed to have been sharing the same look. She wasn't aware of the truth of Simone Thompson being the show stopper, and her latest makeover seem to have hidden that fact clearly from her. It was a plus point for Ashton's plan to see his sister not being able to spot the secret, but he was worried too."Bro, what the hell are you doing here?" Outraged, Rex yelled at Derek who picked up a bowl from the table and threw right across his brother's face who caught on time."What the!!""Shut up!! When were you supposed to start work at the office? It's been how long since you guys haven't given me any report on the Great Glacier." Derek queried back, his eyes following the direction Simone went in.Ashton and Rex eyed Shane and Shanzy with bl
When the night stars covered the sky, restless than ever Ashton found himself throwing his injured hand in quick rotations trying to start the moment again for his shoulder. Sitting idle was not his forte but that day due to his incapacity to even wear his own clothes, he didn’t do anything apart from calling for Rex’s help.His best friend was kind enough to be his helping hand, but he needed a way to release his anger now. So, he threw as much as pressure on himself by moving his hand. It pained. It exhausted him yet he was in no mood of giving up. Although, his head was blasting with a migraine with the inevitable things rolling up in his life.The words of his best friend echoed in his ears like a bee was buzzing an unknown truth to him but the wheel of wind, refused to allow him to grasp it. From his mother’s unjustified behavior to Simone getting scared after seeing Derek, he seemed to be in a fix in the inter-related scenarios about which he had no idea because no one thought h
With a thoughtful look plastered on her face, Simone traced Alicia’s picture, but her eyes fixed on Ashton who she depicted to be lost in his world. Too lost to even care about anything else going around him. Debating on his state wasn’t even her priority as she knew that there was something more she was bound to do first, so closed the leather piece, straightened her shoulders and entered the room making a creepy sound through her feet wanting him to look at her because she hated to come out as an intruder.And as she wanted, Ashton swiveled his head to meet her amused face as if she had just earned millions. If he thought, she would utter any trash like her usual self, she surprised him by shutting the door; the automatic lock did its work while the lady who was back in her haunted dress, switched off the lights leaving two side lamps."What do you think you're doing?" Ashton asked, rising to his feet. His voice devoid of any custom emotion, not even anger. Her sudden calmness made h
