Failed Mission
The next morning, Iliana and Clara were awakened by Melina's yells. "Dad, mum, we've been invited to the Harrison Heritage Hotel for a masquerade ball!" "Oh my goodness! That's fantastic. We may be able to form a marriage alliance with the Harrison family as a result of this. I heard they have a capable successor already." Juliana smiled as she walked down the staircase. "The Harrisons, on the other hand, are seldom seen in the limelight. But, in any case, chances only come around once. This is your chance to shine, my dear girl." Mark said as Juliana sat beside him. "If we ever hope to form a marriage alliance with the Harrisons, I need to impress them, particularly, the heir. The function is this evening. As a result, I have less time to plan. I need to get started right away." "Don't be worried, my dear daughter. Your mother is always willing to assist you in every way she can. Right?" "Of course" Juliana affirmed while leading Meli

The Masquerade Ball
I walked out of Mark's room and down the passage. On my way back, the guards around were looking at me with awe as usual. Ignoring them, I walked further down into the passage until I got to my room. Sitting on a chair, close to the window, I looked out at the dark skies. The wind blew gently across my face. Closing my eyes, I allowed memories of my past flash through my head. The feelings burning deep within me were too much to bear and I just could not hold it in any longer. A sharp pain from my eyes spread throughout my head and I knew I was about to get a migraine. A tear drop rolled down my face as I remembered my master and how he tried his best to protect me. "I can't believe I failed my mission. How did this happen? How?! How did I end up at the mercy of a man?" "He....th...that stu..pid man! He even had the guts to touch my hair. How da...re he!? How dare......" Unable to complete my statement, I dropped my face into my hands. "And he even ha

The Masquerade Ball 2
Clara entered her room and found Iliana trying to get into the gown by herself. "Iliana, do you need help?" "Yes!" "Fine, there and there....yes, it is done. Now your hair is next." "I can do that by myself Clara, focus on yourself for once." "Fine, fine." Clara said raising her both hands in defeat. She showered and changed into her gown as well. By this time, Iliana was through with her hair and was wearing the necklace that came alongside her dress. She slipped into her shoes and sat down at the dressing table. Applying a red lipstick and some mascara she stood up and turned back as Clara gasped at the sight of her. "Oh my God! Iliana!, you look like a nightmare dressed like a daydream. The dress really does look like it was made specially for you..." "Thanks Clara, you look beautiful as well." Iliana said looking at Clara's dress. Clara looked down at the dresser and applied her favorite lip gloss. Facing I

The Masquerade Ball 3
Clara and I entered the hotel which was filled with people mostly females in glamorous looking dresses probably hoping to catch the eye of some rich handsome gigolo as I'd like to call them or to win the heart of some rich family's heir. Some elderly people were present as well, perhaps, they were there to find a prospective suitor for their daughters or a suitable wife material  for their sons. The waiters, dressed in their white and black uniforms were moving around with empty trays which I assume must have been filled with drinks that they had already handed out to the people around. We were walking down the stairs when the whole room suddenly went quiet only to be filled with whispers few minutes later."Oh my God! Look at the dresses those ladies are wearing. It looks so unique, I'm sure it wasn't made by a petty designer." A woman said to another."Wow! John, look at those pretty dresses, if only you could afford to buy me something that beauti

The Masquerade Ball 4
I could not believe it. The person I had waited for so long to see was finally here. His facial features were extremely enchanting and I could have sworn that my heart stopped beating for a minute there. The fact that his face was concealed behind a mask didn't diminish his charm but only added a mysterious aura to him. He made all the females around feel intrigued and mesmerized while the males around felt envious because they could not look that exquisite. Just one glance at his grenadine eyes and you are bedazzled, two glances and you are completely hypnotized. I was very sure that most of the men present here would actually become bent just for him. His beauty was completely out of this world. All the female socialites around me were stunned as they all had dreamy looks on their faces. A sudden wave of possessiveness swept over me as I felt like scooping their eyes off. 'Those filthy girls, how dare they stare at what is mine?' A voice at the end

You snatched my heart away
 Iliana tried to shield her eyes from the morning sun with her palm. She abruptly lifted her upper body and glanced at the clock. It was 7:00am and she was scheduled to be at work for the morning shift soon. When a sudden wave of nausea and pain from her forehead hit her, she had to get up. She jumped to her feet and dashed to the restroom. Clara had been awakened by the commotion and was looking at Iliana with a grin on her face."Precaution 1: Keep Iliana away from that which starts with an A.""What do you mean, Clara?""A for alcohol, stupid. Take a good look at yourself. Are you able to recall anything that happened last night at all?""Of course, I do. We went to the ball, and then I...I..we....he... look I can't do this right now. I have a severe headache.""All right, take this." She said while stretching her opened her palm to show the pills inside."Thank you," Iliana said as she drank some water and swallowed the tablets.

A million and one proposals
In a secret military base, "Welcome Major General, how was your trip?" Sergeant Mello who was standing at the entrance of the General's quarters asked. "Get Sergeant Matilda here and David right now" "Actually, Sergeant Matilda is still on a mission and Sergeant David had to go with five hundred soldiers to support them as we hadn't heard from them in a few days since they left. We've tried tracking their locations with the tracker in Sergeant Matilda, but the GPS keeps saying it can't recognize their location. We do not know when they will return and it seems the Hantils had anticipated our attack." "Mn. Get me my laptop.""Yes Major General." His fingers flew across the keyboard and after a few seconds, a gruesome scene appeared on the screen. On the screen, a thick forest could be seen, as men in yellow and black shirts holding sophisticated guns were walking to and fro while some things that looked like human beings could b

Country M's Airport.14:00pmA man dressed in a black t-shirt, a pair of grey joggers and black sneakers was standing in the middle of the airport while trying to take in everything around him. The corner of his lips turned upwards revealing a dazzling smile as he strolled around the airport while tugging at his luggage. He walked further to the exit when suddenly he collided with something."I'm sorry for running into you sir. Now I have ruined your shirt with my drink. What will I tell moonlight?" The little girl said slapping her forehead."Hi, what is your name?" The man asked, crouching to the three year old's level."My name is Chloe. I'm really sorry for what I did to your shirt sir. Please do not tell moonlight, she'll scold me. Please?" Chloe begged her blue eyes with specks of violet watering."Do not worry about it okay? I can always change. Promise me that you won't cry?""Yes, I won't. Th

Please, come back a virgin
"Butler Finn, are you really here?" Nechel muttered in surprise as he ran forward to embrace the elderly man."Welcome back, Nechel." The old man said, trying hard not to cry.Nechel had been gone for four years, and he hadn't been able to contact him during that time. Butler Finn had thought he'd never return home, so seeing him again brought back a lot of memories. He missed how Nechel would run to him to tell him about everything and anything on his childish mind, and how he would always advise and guide him in the right direction, just like a father would.The sound of a throat clearing jolted the two people out of their reverie."Let's go inside, Nechel.""Alright, father. I'll see you later, Butler Finn. I have to go inside now.""There is no issue, child."They all walked through the mansion's massive, magnificent golden white doors. Juliana gave Butler Finn a dirty look and in response, and Butler Finn looked down as he walked
