Everything was changed. There was no longer a fifteen-year-old kid with blonde hairs almost reaching his eyes and a face of exquisite innocence. Instead, sitting in front of me was a guy who at the moment can kill me with his bare hands. Probably two or three inches taller, his face looked rugged with the overgrown unkempt beard and deep lines covered his forehead. He looked beaten yet so strong that it took me a moment to realize that he was my brother. Where was my brother? "Hello brother," Neil exclaimed smugly in his deep voice. "Grab a seat,"

It felt like I was caught cheating and now I don't have any possibly good excuse to get out of this fix. I have never cheated during exams so I don't know how to get out of such a situation. And neither did I know how to get out of this one."Liam...," I started but he placed out his palm, clearly shutting me off."Not here," He muttered and out of the blue grabbed my wrist swiftly.We crossed the road and Liam almost dragged me up to the parking of our office which was deserted except for a few cars still parked. "Ouch!" I groaned as he released me and started running his hand through his hair. I eyed my wrist and they had gone red with marks of his fingers on my pale skin. "Lunch?" Liam asked c

My stomach began to churn as I took in my surroundings. People. So many people. Each one was crucial to the company. What if something goes wrong? "Soaf?" Kris called, tapping on my shoulder. "Are you alright? You look like you will throw up right here," "No, no I am not alright," I nodded sullenly. "I am so damn scared. These people are so important. What if anything goes wrong? Liam warned me that I will have to face the consequences if something happens," "Nothing is going to happen," Kris assured. "Your job was to ensure that everything is perfect and that it is. Now if God forbid anything goes wrong that's not your fault. And what is the worst thing that Liam can do? Fire you? Well, screw him," "Look, if something was wrong Sandy would have called

I blinked and grumbled as something bright fell on my eyes. It made my head hurt like crazy and I groaned loudly before forcing myself to open my eyes. The bright light almost blinded me and I quickly covered my eyes with my hand and dragged myself into a sitting position. It felt better, so I removed my hand and stared around. Bright sunlight poured into my room and I could hear voices chattering downstairs. I rubbed my eyes and then concentrated on my surrounding. It was my room undoubtedly but there was something wrong. Was I missing something? I stared around and my eyes landed on a black dress lying haphazardly on the couch. That dress...it...it looks familiar. And then it hit me! Of course, I wore that to Liam's party last night!

Liam's hand was warm and comfortable against mine and it reminded me of my happy place. The sentience of his touch, resonated deep inside me, leaving a warm, satisfied feeling in its wake, as we strolled through the luxurious cabin of his jet. The palatial place was divided into three lounges. At the entrance was the sleek kitchen, done in polished black laminates. Followed by the kitchen was the usual cabin area. The next part was the dining area, with comfortable chairs in black leather upholstery and a sleek L-shaped couch. The last was the bedroom, with a queen-size bed that can comfortably fit two people, with the same black and white themed duvet and bedsheets. There were two recliners as well on the wall and everything looked mighty comfortable and chic. "What do you think?" Liam asked as I sto
