Jean's gaze lingered on the earring Dionysus held between his fingers, a sense of recognition slowly dawning on him. "I know this earring," he said abruptly "I gave it to Renata for her 26th birthday." Alexa's breath hitched, the cold realization setting into her bones. "How could it be possible if she were after me?" Gilbert turned to Jean with a questioning look. "Are you certain it's Renata's?"Jean nodded without hesitation. "Absolutely. I remember because it was a custom design." With that confirmation, Gilbert's expression shifted to something dark, something dangerous. While holding Alexa's hand, he walked out of the bedroom to the commotion in the hallway. Then he turned to Renata, who was trying to blend into the background, now getting pale and terrified as Gilbert's murderous gaze was piercing through her doe eyes. His smile at her was cold, devoid of any warmth—a predator's grin."My lady Renata," he called out, his tone deceptively soft.Jean, who followed them behind,
Gilbert stood firm and tall. His eyes straightly meet Dio's eyes. The blue eyes of him and the green eyes of Dio were staring at each other, forming a silent war between the two smartest men in Gardier's family line. The crazy thing is, they have the same height and almost the same face. Dio were just a little bit paler. And now his face is more pale due to Gilbert's 'I know what you did' words."So many things have been happening in this mansion recently." Gilbert continued, "Thus, from the murder of my father up to the death of the servant, There is a murderous game, I know. And I know you are involved."Even Dio, who was rarely unsettled by anything, felt a twinge of disquiet. He studied Gilbert, observing the chilly gaze fixed in his blue eyes. Gilbert showed no fear; he was too calm to be true."You..." Gilbert went on, his voice still monotone, "you've been uncommonly near Alexa during this whole time. A tad too close for comfort."Dionysus was about to answer, but Gilbert inter
Madam Victoria arrived at the same time Alexa was peering out of a window. Alexa notices her and then bows down to her."Alexa, my darling, where did my son disappear to in this middle of the night?" Her voice was a combination of worry and command for her to answer immediately.Alexa traced the choker, reflecting light, and its brightness stood out against her look of bewilderment.“I... I do not know; he left without saying anything,” she answered.Madame Victoria’s eyes slightly narrowed, a trace of disappointment crossing her face. “It’s so unusual of him to act this recklessly. Gilbert is always difficult, but he isn't Jean, who loves women and nightlife,” she noted, her eyes then settling on the choker that hung around Alexa's neck."That choker... that choker is one of our best items and it was very expensive."Alexa’s hand subconsciously touched the diamonds around her neck. “My lord Gilbert gave it to me,” she said, quietly mulling over the night’s occurrences.Madam Victoria
Philadelphia, 2012."Miss, don't wander around alone at this late hour. I heard that there is a serial killer in this neighborhood. Let me take you home safely, miss." the policeman said to Alexa."Thank you."Alexa was about to go home after work. The 26-year-old worked as a waitress at a cafe."Serial killer? That's ridiculous. If there was a serial killer, there would already be a lot of police patrolling here." Alexa thought.The policeman escorted her until she arrived at her house. After arriving house, Alexa decided to sleep, ignorant of the serial killer rumors.The policeman stood in front of Alexa's house door. He's smirking."So this is your house? My baby. I Got you."**The next day, Alexa found a letter lying on her doorstep. She initially wanted to take a shower and get ready for work, but she decided to read the letter first."Hello, my pretty baby, Alexa Larossa.You don't know who I am, but I know you very well, my dear.Allow me to introduce myself, darling.I can b
"But sir, I have to serve drinks to the other guests," Alexa said.Jean looked at the other girl, who had finished serving the guests small cakes. And then he said :"Eerie, please take this girl's place to serve the drinks.""Yes, sir." The girl said.Alexa, who was sitting on Jean's thigh, looked so surprised."How do you know her name is Eerie?""I've come to this event many times, girl. You're the new girl here, and you're the most attractive. The most beautiful girl I have ever seen."Alexa rolled her eyes. She was tired of men praising her beauty.Jean's hand crept up Alexa's thigh, then up to her waist, and ended at her neck."You're not angry? Normally, a girl like you would be furious at being touched, and you would slap my face. You look so pious, you know. Pious face with a bitchy smile.""At first, I wanted to slap you, but I remembered I get 500 dollars an hour for this. If you don't penetrate me, I will be okay.""Smart girl," Jean said.Alexa took a deep breath when Jea
"You know your father hates the dinner party, Jean." Said Jean's mother, Mrs. Victoria. Mrs. Victoria appeared in the living room with Renata Swan, Jean's fiancée. Renata approached Jean and was about to kiss him on the forehead, but Jean pulled away."Later, Renata," Jean said. He then left the living room and walked to his room.Renata looked disappointed because Jean treated her rudely.In his room, Jean locked the door. He changed his suit into his sleeping clothes. Then, he heard someone knocking on his door."I want to talk to you, boy." Jean's father said from behind the door.Jean opened the door for his father. He let his father in."Close the door."As he closed the door, Jean said:"What is wrong, Father? It seems important you talk to me at this late hour." "I know you went to that lewd dinner party again. You know I told you not to go, right?""I am 32 years old. You don’t have a right to control my life anymore. I can do whatever I like.""This is not about your life,
"What is this shit?" Alexa said when she again found strange items on her doorstep the next morning. She found shoes, bags, dresses, panties, and even fresh lilies. "Isn't this the dress from fashion week yesterday? It was expensive. Who put this in my house?" She said. She then read the piece of paper that was with the items. "Alexa, my angel, I knew you were short on clothes. So, I bought you these, all from famous designers. Wear them, and be proud in front of your friends because you wear the most branded clothes. You look so good in white underwear, you know? One day, I can put it on myself in your pretty body. There are also lilies, your favorite flower. I hope you're doing well today. Have a nice day. With love, your soulmate." "How does he know that I like lilies? Who exactly is this person? I'm getting scared, for God's sake." Alexa didn't wear the clothes that her “soulmate” had given her. Her body got trembling for fear even when she showered. She immediately went to w
"You know all women's cunt taste the same, Jean." Jean's father said."But, i don't want just a cunt, father. I want a lover. I want to meet the love of my life.""There Is no such a thing called love, boy. All women are fold diggers. No one will love you truly, all they love the most is your money. And that's fine. Even Renata love you because you are financially equal to her." Jean lost his virginity at the age of 20. He is the type of man who likes around beautiful women. He is a womanizer playboy. However, Jean doesn't think of his sleeping partners as "his personal whore" or "sugar baby". He refers to them as "a lover". And so he was always looking for woman, and it made his father angry."Stop bring a whore in this house. If you need a woman to satisfy your hypersexual behaviour, do it hiddenly." His father said when Jean bring his lover to their house one day."Woman is not just a cunt. Although for me, woman's cunt is the best type of recreation of my boring life. But, woma
