All Chapters of The Dark Silhouette: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Cloud's POV I had already been parked outside Athena's office when I received a text message from her saying she was just about to clock out in fifteen minutes. I messaged her back, informing her that I was already waiting for her to evacuate the building. Furthermore, I have not ever heard from her again after that, so I hypothesized she was going to finish up whatever work activities she was doing to officially end her shift for the day. I started to turn on my car stereo and flipped from one channel to the next, selecting a song that best suit my mood and preferences. And after I have selected the ballad that I find really relaxing and calming my nerves, I reached out to maximize the volume of my speaker then grabbed the backrest, and crouched down comfortably, trying to sing along with the ballads vociferously like a drunkard. My voice croaking as I tried my best to reach the highest pitch of the tune, eager to mimic the singer. I feel like I am

Lovi's POV I had been driving downtown when I started to notice a certain bar along the main road. In the dead of the night, it makes it appear visually enticing and vibrant. I came to a screeching halt on the side of the highway, still looking intently at the bar across the street. There is an unsettling thought persuading me to enter the bar and then have a good time, forgetting about something else for the time being. I am really not your typical bar or party swinger. As Megan's friend, I have been all over bars and nightclubs before for a casual drink. But then, if Megan had never really invited me, I would never set foot in this place. I decided to enter the hustle and bustle bar with apprehension at first. The vitality of the party-goers and the groovy tunes hammering on my inner self had me swept away. I ended up sitting at the bar counter and requested the uniformed bartender to make me a lady's drink. I managed to c

Athena's POV I brought back my gaze to Cloud, who was sitting there looking at me and waving me goodbye in his car, window frames completely open and a cheesy grin on his face. When I saw him still trying to check to make absolutely sure I was perfectly alright, I ended up giving him my face of an angel then smiled and waved, then motioned for him to consider leaving. He drove away after raising his right hand in a salute and bursting out laughing. I started to laugh, still gazing lovingly in the direction in which he had left off. I really can not possibly ask for something more. Cloud is the type of man that every woman wishes she could have. It has been a week since I returned to the office, and he keeps driving me there every morning and makes sure to pick me up at the end of my shift in the afternoon. Except for preparing food and a list of groceries, I very seldom have to do any household tasks as soon as we get home be

Megan's POV "H-hi," I stammered, a little shyly. Cloud, who had been standing from the other side of the door, was obviously taken aback by my appearance. His dark-colored eyes narrowed as surprise and bewilderment embossed their way across his handsome features. Just to see him bare-chested real close crafted him even more breathtaking. A complexion that has already been tanned, oblique muscles over muscular arms. His chest is seamless, his pec muscle is outlined, and his six-pack abdominal muscles are likable. I blush just trying to think about it because I simply can not imagine having to put my tongue anywhere else on Cloud's body— Hold on a second. I could indeed dream of putting my tongue all over Cloud's body, and I am completely convinced that he would love every second of it. I am quite certain I just might. That concept made me smile slyly. "What are you doing here?" he wondered out loud, trying to

Athena's POV I had just finished cooking the risotto in the large saucepan and was unceasingly stirring the sauce to thwart a bulge from establishing on the narrow region of the casserole when I started hearing someone dash down the stairs, having realized that Cloud was now awake and alert. As soon as he saw me, he decided to enter the kitchen, deeply disoriented and flustered. I looked up and greeted him, "Hello there, sleepyhead. Are you going somewhere?" I questioned as my eyes roamed around his body and I observed he was actually dressed. I witnessed as Cloud's eyes narrowed, and my eyebrows furrowed as he stopped and looked at me. "No, I —I was supposed to pick you up, but I fell asleep for a long period of time," he stammered. "Yes, I am familiar with the idea. Everything else was fine. I was able to come home safely," I tried to reassure him with a comforting smile. "When did you arrive home? And how &nb
