01| Ocean Blue.~~~~ “You have been a very pitiful girl, Amber.” My smile nearly slipped at Caleb's word, his hot breath on my skin reminds me of that summer I had caught him with Valerie, right after he asked me out. “You know.” He adds, tilting his head. “If only you had taken my offer back then, you wouldn't be here now, miserable, married to a dead man.” His hand on my shoulder tightens slightly. His smile is wry, mocking. It makes me wonder when my life came to this, even a rat like Caleb believes he has the right to pity me.I step back, letting his hand slip off my shoulder. “Caleb.” I force a smile, fixing my gaze on his grey orbs. “What is it you want? I mean, you came to me after the auction with an offer to walk me to my car as an apology for four years ago.” my brows pinch. “Then what is this you are doing?”He shakes his head. “You don't get it Amb-”“Don't!” My smile slips. “Don't call my name.” I cut him off, Caleb rubs his face.“ Aren't you tired? You are married t

Averting my gaze from his, I try pushing myself up, only to fall back again, Valentino frowns. “Um, could you help me up.” I ask his chauffeur.“Ah yes.” He holds my hand and helps me up.“My car is right over there.” I inform him, voice quievering, unable to forget what I just witnessed a few minutes ago. “Wait.” My Uncle In-law commands, I freeze, because for no reason in particular, my heart squeezes at the sound of his voice, he walks over to me, steady, confident like he has nothing to lose, his scrutinizing gaze examines me. “Why are you covered in blood?”The moment he speaks, I step back, almost stumbling. “Uh, I um.” I lick my lips, glancing behind me, right where I had just sat on blood. “I don't know.” My gaze snaps to his scrutinizing one, what if he is the masked man? Or what if it’s a friend of his?If he is in any way related to the death I

03| Saviour.~~~~If anyone had told me a few hours ago that my life would come to this, I would have thought the person was crazy.Well, this is crazy.I creep away from the broken wall, the wind rushing into my apartment as bullets rain down on it, breaking the already broken wall more. My scream is drowned out by the sound of breaking vases and glasses. I manage to find cover behind the kitchen island.My pulse pounds in my ear, drowning out all thought except the need to hide. I pull my knees to my chin, hugging them as tight as possible, holding my breath until it is over. Soon, silence descends over the room, I slowly push myself out, trembling as I scramble for the door, ignoring the stinging pain on my ankle, the moment I push the door open, my body knocked into a hard chest, I shriek, rushing back, forgetting my sprained ankle, my leg twists to the side.I slipped and stumbled back, almost falling to the floor, but warm arms catch me before I do. “Calm down, it's me?” The mo

The woman relaxes. “Oh, hey Amber. I am Viola.” She puts down her frying pan. “ Sorry for this, I presumed you would be asleep till I leave.” Her voice is thick with her accent, raven hair packed in a bun, she isn't dressed like a maid, in fact, she looks like the lady of the house.I lean against the refrigerator, the cold seeping into my skin, reminding me of the fact that I am still in my thin nightgown, and that I had almost died just earlier today.“Oh my, I can't believe he left you all by yourself.” Her eyes widen when I limp towards the counter.“ah, it's nothing, I just sprained my ankle, it should be back to normal by tomorrow.” I inform Viola.“Oh, you silly girl, you can barely walk a step without support, how is this any good from using a crutch.” She wraps her hand around my waist. “Here,

05|Ever been this right.~~~~ Valentino cups the back of my neck, pulling me closer in a motion, his eyes whisper on my whole face, lingering on my lips. “ I can make you stay, but I won't.” He states. “ I want it to be your choice, I want you to want to stay.” He squeezes and I throb with need. “Be a good girl for me, Purple, stay until the party.” His lips press on my temple, I almost melt at the physical touch. “ I will let you go after that.” his lips press to the spot under my ear.I gasp, feeling like I am under a spell. “What's in it for me?” I look into his eyes. “ Your safety.” “If I go to this… party with you, will I be able to return to America safely?” “Yes.” “ I will need some time to think about it.” Valentino releases me, only then does my breathing return to normal. “I will be in my office if you need me.”I watch his back as he leaves, breath still heavy, tigh still pressed together. My ankle still hurts, reminding me that even if I intended to leave soon, it
