Truth or Dare
Nora picked up the food tray and sauntered towards the table.  On the large rectangular table, Liam sat in the middle. On his left sat Jackson and Jessica, and on his right was an empty seat, followed by RK. Before she could reach near his side, Nancy strutted in her high heels and took the seat beside Liam, greeting everyone on the table. Nora paused in her tracks and sucked in a breath. She couldn’t get angry. She took the empty seat beside Jessica and placed the food tray on the table with a bang. Everyone at the table turned silent on her arrival, and the atmosphere was filled with awkwardness. They sneaked glances between Liam and Nora and then at Nancy, who pretended oblivious to their stares. Liam met Nora’s eyes, which looked like they were on fire, and for the first time in his life, he felt his composure slip. Through his eyes, he wanted to tell her he could exchange seats w

I'll apologize if you break up
The game proceeded, and the bottle pointed at Riley. “Truth or Dare?” “Dare.” “Dare you to ask the number of that brunette in the corner?” Without a second delay, Riley strode over and whispered something in the brunette’s ear. Within a minute, he returned and shook his phone that displayed the number to them.Well, Riley was a proficient player, so it was just a child’s play for him to get the number. The bottle spun once again, and this time, it stayed at Nora. They watched intently as Nora chose ‘Dare’. “Dare you to kiss the first person who enters the room.” Someone suggested. Everyone turned at Liam simultaneously.  “I’ll pass.” Nora stood up and drank the liqueur in a go. With her boyfriend right beside her, she wouldn’t be as suicidal as to kiss another man in front of him.  Liam frowned as he looked at her face, which had turned slightly red. “Are you okay?” he asked, concer

Drowning in their sorrows
He was already driving above the speed limit but was still nowhere near Nora.The girl seemed to have lost her mind as she ran several red lights.Thankfully, he was right behind her on standby in case she met with a mishap.Nora slowed down the speed when she arrived near her condo. Parking her car, she ran straight towards the elevator.She knew Liam was chasing after her the moment she left the club.But she felt so wronged and didn’t want to see him at all.After she entered her apartment, the first thing she did was to lock the main door and then all the windows to prevent him from entering.Liam had predicted that she would lock the door and hence he entered his condo. Walking towards the balcony, he jumped into hers, but to his dismay, the windows were closed with the curtains drawn over.His breathing became erratic at the tightly shut windows and he knocked rapidly on them. “Nora, I know you’re in the

Are you merely childhood friends?
A stunning combination of endless sandy beaches, warm crystal-clear waters, and lush green valleys surrounded the resort that set in beautifully landscaped tropical gardens. Surrounded by the lush tropical gardens, was the superior private pool– a hidden haven of relaxation.Clad in a rib triangle tie-side bikini swimsuit, Nora strolled barefooted on the walkway.Krystal, who was sun tanning on the pool chair, beckoned Nora over.“I have a date tonight and would probably stay out late. Can you be on your own or do you want me to send someone to accompany you?”Apparently, the night’s incident had made them depressed.The loneliness was a reminder of how pathetic their lives were.A sudden idea popped in her mind and Nora proposed to go out of the country for a mini- vacation in order to cheer up their moods.Krystal found the idea to be tempting and immediately agreed.So, within an hour, they booked the

She was his woman
Liam carried her inside the room and kicked the door shut behind him. He put her down on the huge bed as his deep, possessive kiss left her lips and moved down her collarbone and then her curves. Nora shivered at his touch and couldn’t help but ask. “You… C-Can you, do it?”Although they had been intimate before, they had never done it all the way. That was because Liam was under his OCD treatment and still needed time to overcome his illness.The two of them were yet to be deflowered.In a tone that was husky and exceptionally seductive in the night, Liam moved his lips. “You should never question a man about his ability if he can do it.”Her cheeks flushed red, and they added a charming color to her face, further igniting the fire inside him.Putting his arms around her shoulder, he held her in his arms and lowered his head to kiss her lips.In his raspy voice, he bre

Accident
Liam and Nora stayed on the island for another two days.Fortunately, they had study leave from the school for their finals, hence it did not matter if they attended.Talking about which, there was only a month left before their finals.But before that, Liam took Nora to a high-end restaurant to meet someone.Walking into the private room, Nora was surprised to see the woman beside Liam.The woman seemed to be around in her sixties. She wore a dark-colored below-the-knee dress with a shawl wrapped around her shoulders. Her hair had gunmetal gray and was pulled up neatly in a bun. She has off a vibe of a no-nonsense woman, yet appeared to be gentle.If her memory served correctly, she saw her once at Liam’s house during her stay at his place.When Liam was badly beaten up by his father’s men, it wasn’t his mother but the woman in front of her who checked up on him first.Seeing her arrive, Liam stood up and too

Accident (1)
When he woke up, he could feel two tubes fixed on his nose, pumping oxygen and something clamped over his fingers. He had a frail body to begin with, and now he looked deathly sick because of the accident. “Young Master, you should have taken me with you. You have a weak body and this accident only made it worse.” A blonde, seemingly, who looked around a few years older than him, spoke when he saw he was awake. Although the accident wasn’t severe, because he had a weak constitution, it affected him heavily. The man moved his chapped lips, trying to speak. “Are you telling me I’m weak?” The blonde turned pale. “No. You’ve misunderstood me. I was afraid when Sir and Madam learn about the accident, they would be worried.” The man took a deep breath with difficulty. “Seal the news. No one should know about the accident. Not even my family.” The blonde nodded. Following his young master for fifteen odd years, he more or less

She's my bottom line
Liam drove the car to the ice-skating rink around the border of the city. Nora’s eyes immediately lit up when they reached the venue.Taking her hand, the two walked inside.The rink was blissfully empty except for the few staffs, as Liam had booked the entire venue for his private date with her.“What do you think?” He asked, glancing to the side.“You wanted to bring me for ice-skating?” Nora asked excitedly.“Uh, huh.”“But… I don’t know how to.”“What are you afraid of? I’m here.” With a smile, he pulled her to get the skates on.Bending on his knee, he put on her skates and dragged her inside the rink.“H-hold on a second. I don’t think I can do this.” Nora said nervously, nearly slipping on the ice as she clung to him tightly.Liam laughed lightly. “It’s alright. Just follow my movements.”

Who are you?
For revision work, Nora went to the school. After she entered the library, she received a text from Liam, notifying her he was out of town for some business and would only be back later. Nora thought nothing about the message and went ahead with her studies. As their final was approaching, she wanted to take Liam’s help for the exams. Now that he was away, she scheduled it once he returned. During break time, she went to the restroom. After she was done, she stood in front of the sink and washed her hands when she saw a figure come out of the cubicle and towards her. “You’re back? I heard you left Kingstown in a fit of anger. I hope you won’t misunderstand my and Liam’s relationship. We’ve always been like that, protective of each other ever since we were kids, so he took his anger out on you. I hope you wouldn’t mind that, will you?” came the mellow voice of Nancy. Nora ignored her monologue and turned around, wanting

Let's break up
“Is something on your mind? Wanna talk?” Krystal leaned against the door and asked.Watching her listless all day, Krystal called her out for a talk.Nora shook her head. “It’s nothing.”“Everything alright? You seem… lost?”Nora did not reply.“It’s Liam, isn’t it?”Krystal walked over and sat beside her. “Nora, fights are normal between couples. But don’t let them take control over your heart. Men can be fickle-minded sometimes. I don’t know who’s in the wrong, but one thing I’m sure of is that Liam loves you a lot. I’ve seen it in his eyes. The way he looks at you is… different. And I know you love him too. Men like him are not easily found on today’s date, so cherish him while you can. Talk things out with him and you’d feel okay.”“I know,” Nora replied vaguely.Krystal wasn&rsqu
