Nathaniel kept a hand on his waist as he almost confusedly watched her crawl out from under his bed. “And what on earth are you doing under my bed?” He finally asked once she was standing.“She gets weirder every day,” Amir mumbled loudly earning himself a glare from his friend."Well, I thought you were the one coming into this place with a woman. I definitely won't want to watch you go down on a woman," Chloe kept her arms folded as she talked, her shoulders occasionally shrugging.“But you were listening anyway,” Amir muttered again and the half-naked Lucille beside him nod in agreement causing Chloe to almost sneer at her.“There was nowhere else close by to hide,” Chloe continued her glare at Lucille.“It is okay Chloe. I don't have any issue with you but I have with this man-whore on my bed.”Amir immediately got up. “Who the heck are you calling a whore? Look, pretty boy, don't -""Don't what?" Nathaniel squared his stance and glared back at the seething man in front of him who

Knowing how reluctant her body would be to get up in the middle of the night- especially after the day's work, Chloe had made sure to set an alarm on her phone. And it was currently piercing her ears and doing a good job of keeping her from hugging her pillow closer. As Chloe got off the bed, her eyes landed on the clear night outside and her mind immediately went to the reason she was up at that moment. The screams had a message but there was no way for Chloe to fully understand the message until she found the source of the cries. That was her main problem. It was as though the noise came from somewhere far away this minute, the next minute, the noise resonated all the way to her feet sole. So, she had two choices to work on. She could search for any alternative routes at the two places she had heard the noise. And the other- easy yet difficult- option was to look for the blueprint of the building. “Okay, let's do this,” she said as she checked the time. In no time, she was

The ride to the clubhouse was a very fast one. Without a doubt, the rush was to make sure the news didn't get out. Chloe doubted that. Such news never wasted time.As she adjusted the strap of her shoes, she wondered if she would find any strong evidence at the scene. It was high time she found that very, very strong lead that would change the game."Does she have to come along?" The grumpy man asked Nathaniel who waved off his question. "But we hardly know her.""You hardly know her. I am not leaving her out here, it is too dangerous." He got down and helped her with her door. Chloe inwardly appreciated his sense of protection, but she would have been able to take care of herself if she were to be left alone.But she was nonetheless more glad that they were allowing her accompany them.Chloe's darting eyes did not miss the two police vehicles around a corner which meant either the cops had come for Amir or they just came to have a crazy n

"How on earth are you taking a mint flavored ice cream? Are you some kind of frost queen?"Chloe eyed Amir who was staring at her in wonder as she enjoyed the bowl in her hand. "It is not as bad as you are making it sound.""Just let me stick with my chocolate can," he said as Chloe extended her tub to him."So," she licked off some cream off her spoon. ",why does this guy crave ice cream a lot? We are literally transporting ice cream enough for twenty kids." Her eyes flickered to the huge box seated right next to the driver's seat strapped securely."Sebastian just has this craze for ice cream because he never got any when he was little. So he makes up for it by taking a lot now that he is all grown up.""Did his mother deprive him of ice cream or what?""Something like that.""That sucks.""Hmm, speaking of something that sucks..." Chloe groaned inwardly as she could feel a dirty joke coming. "How is it that someone like you,

Chloe had no idea why she had thought that they would be going to a cemetary. It would have been a bit creepy if they actually did.But, Amir had mentioned his mother in a way that would make one think that she was dead. But she wasn't.She was across the street in a restuarant with two young boys and a man who couldn't take his eyes off her or take down his really large smile as he wished her a happy birthday and watched her blow out the candle lights."Uh... Amir..." Chloe shook him out of his dazed state. "Aren't you going in to wish her? Standing here is a little bit weird.""Wish her?" He bluntly pushed her suggestion away. "She made it clear that she never wants to see my face. She thinks I am bad luck.""But you are not, right?" She could imagine the look on the face of a younger Amir who had just being told by his mother that he is bad luck. The kind of thing hurts."I don't know. Maybe to her, I am. But to me," he sighed. ",I am jus
