All Chapters of The Perfect Revenge : Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

It felt like my whole world was crumbling beneath me, drowning me in a sea of betrayal, lies, and deceit with absolutely no one to hold on to, not even my sanity.“Please tell me this is not true Tanya” I pleaded, my brown orbs wild with unshed tears, fear palpable in my raging heart. It couldn’t be right? I was imagining things, and it wasn’t true.“I am sorry, Sky, we didn’t mean to.” Tanya’s voice trembled, her words tearing me into pieces, and for a moment, I wished I had remained oblivious to the truth. My child hood best friend sat before me, the guilt coating her warm hazel orbs was enough to drown me in my misery. “I.. I...I don’t understand” I stammered, pulling at my hair in frustration. The rubber band that I had used to hold it in place came undone.I stared at her, my mouth wide open, praying this was one cruel joke. “ I don’t understand Tanya. Please tell me this is a joke, please..” I pleaded, my voice hoarse with unshed tears and disbelief.

It’s been three hours since my whole life went up in flames, three hours since I became homeless, bankrupt, and helplessThree hours since my breakup with Steve, three hours since my fallout with my best friend, and three hours since my encounter with him. The past darned hours have been the worst miserable hours of my life.I sat curled up on Ed's couch, my arms wrapped tightly around my knees. The ticking of the clock is a cruel reminder of how my life had crumbled in the span of a single evening.“I give you a day off, and in just three hours you’ve managed to wreck your whole life, career. Heck, you are the most talked about on the Internet. Sky, what the hell happened?” Ed yells, the veins on his forehead popping as he paces the length of his tiny apartment in frustration.The soft chime of his rickety dishwasher reverberates through the thin walls.I could hear the frustration in his words, I could even taste the anger at the tip of my tongue,

" I need you to run far away from here, far from here where he wouldn't find you, my life depends on your decision sky" My mom’s voice cuts through the still night, what was supposed to be her eyes were hollow holes staring deep into mine.The sound of a gun being fired reverberating through the thin air.Followed immediately by a sharp crack, I watched my mom’s body going limp in horror."Mom..... mom?" I screamed frantically, blindly reaching for her. Instead, the hollowed faces of the Andersons loomed before me. Their guttural growls sending bouts of fear trickling down my spine."Mom.... mom. ! I jolted awake with a scream, my whole body drenched with sweat. My hand swung out, knocking down the unfamiliar bedside lamp to the floor with a crash."Are you okay, Sky.... I heard screams. " Ed's voice rang from the staircase, the early morning sun flooding into the cramped room, pictures

Xavier Liberated?The answer was noFor every chess piece I took out, every pawn and knights I conquered only made me feel like crap. Left a bitter aftertaste in my mouth. I had waited years, plotting and planning out my perfect revenge. Taking out chess pieces, dancing across chess boards. Conniving with people who I knew wanted to settle scores with her, and now that I had started to execute these plans. I should have been over the moon, giddy with excitement and whatnot, but all I felt was a gaping hole.Instead, I felt like a complete douche bag.With a slow exhale, I slumped back into my chair, tiredly rubbing my temple. Staring intently at the woven design on the ceiling, these past weeks in Manhattan was already taking a toil on me, and my office that I had taken pride in to design from scratch now felt like a cage.The weight of these past few weeks pressed down heavily on me

SkylaEd was waiting at the airport the moment My flight landed. My whole body tense with fatigue as I pushed through the sea of people, my limbs aching, my heartbeat drumming in my ear.I anxiously scanned the parking lot, my breath hitching when I finally found him, his signature baseball cap sat snugly on his head as he waved me towards his car.I rushed to where he stood, my heart hammering in my chest as I took him all in, searching for any bodily harm, but all I saw were two curious honeyed warm orbs staring back at me.His face contorted into a small smile.I let out a shaky breath, handing him my suitcase as I followed dumbly behind, cold beaded sweat forming at the crown of my temple.“Ed? Why aren’t you saying anything?” I asked, my orbs digging into his as we strapped ourselves in. The sweet scent of sunflower and his woodsy perfume lingering in every corner of his car.
