Novel & Cerita Cool Ace Of Spades

The skirt fell in soft folds around my legs, the hem grazing my ankles. I felt like royalty. Nyx, stirred within me, approving of the elegant attire. Sage had impeccable taste; I'd give him that. This dress made me feel like a goddess. I hope this date gors very well, I was nervous deep down. I didn’t want things to go sideways. Cause its me, nothing good ever comes to stay one minute is there and the next, its gone. I was scared of getting my heart broken or messing up, I wanted to make this night eventful and it’s the night I get to choose wether or not, I am going to accept Sage fully introduce Sage back into my life and our son’s too.

“Does it matter who you talk to these things provided you won’t remember their name or face the next day? Does it still matter?” “I suppose not,” I replied nonchalantly and took a sip from my bottle. “So, why are you outside alone?” The guy shrugged as he now stood so close to me I could practically smell his cologne which wasn’t cheap. Now that I could see him, he looked older and there was slight stubble on his face making him handsome in a rough kind of way. “I needed some air, being there was starting to cloud my better judgement,” he replied coolly as he took a drink from his bottle and stared straight ahead and the ocean. “What are you doing out here alone?”

Several gasps filled the air, the audience bursting out in an excited uproar and then the person with the cards started shuffling until each of us got our cards. While they took glances at their cards, smiling amongst themselves I just remained calm. “Alright people, reveal your cards!” they announced and Coco easily revealed hers, “Ace of Spades, 8 of Hearts, 7 of Diamonds! Looking good, Coco!” the man from earlier cheered her and she smiled, eagerly waiting for others.

“Just the poor sap who was supposed to hand over the winnings before the lovesick bride launched herself into the pit after a century long dry spell.” I turned toward the voice, instantly recognizing the amused lilt and unbothered saunter of Ace as he descended the last few steps, slow and smirking, with a thick stack of crumpled bills in one hand and an eyebrow raised high enough to touch the ceiling. Ace held his hand as though he brought a trophy. “You forgot your loot, princess.” “My what?”

And this time, Kaelen sat in the driver's seat and watched it all without stopping her. The car started, disappearing into the night with my painful memories. I closed the door and leaned against the wall. Thirteen years. Our bond was over, just like that. And he had been a liar from the start. Two days later, a gold-embossed invitation arrived at my office. "You are cordially invited to the Luna Ceremony and Wedding of Mr. Kaelen Blackwood and Miss Seraphina Collins." I stared at the photo of them in a loving embrace on the invitation, and the last shred of warmth in my heart died.

Hell, even the born again Christian girl had tongued more women than I had that evening. It just wasn't my night. Whatever. I'd played enough poker to know when I was running bad. I'd lost enough poker to know I needed to quit when the cards were like this. Resigned, I looked down at my card. An Ace. Ace! It looked so pretty, I almost wept. Praise the sweet spaghetti monster, I was back in business!

He’s got the most chips right now, while Aiden is almost out, and Azaire and I are about the same. My cards are actually kind of good. I have the ten and Queen of spades. I can only hope the community cards are just as good, and that I’ll end up with something awesome, so I can beat Azaire and take all his chips. I’m quite competitive, which I had forgotten during these past five years, being on my own. We all place our bets, and Aiden eventually flips over the first three community cards, the flop, revealing a Jack and Ace of spades and a three of diamonds.

I freeze, red haired woman, mother figure, Adaline avoids my gaze and I realize she knew, and didn't say anything to me, the sun has set, but I feel something in semblance to it rising in me, they all lied to me. "This is your present, and for your future, Ace of Spades. You know what that means." She says gulping, and I nod my head, with gritted jaw. I know what Ace of Spades means, death, how convienent. "Draw another card, Alexandru." Adaline says, looking at me. I frown at her, still angry but soften when she says "Please." I look at Selena who shrugs, and I draw another card, Jack of Diamonds. Fucking amazing.

Ace was a walking advertisement for the pleasures of the flesh. I saw the woman slip a card into the pocket of Ace’s pants and a strange, heated emotion rolled through my stomach, causing it to cramp and twist. Jealousy? I had never actually experienced the emotion before, and it wasn’t the time or the place to start feeling it now. Or the man to feel it for. A glossy silver Mercedes McLaren was parked near the edge of the tarmac, the convertible top down, the keys in then ignition. I ought to have figured that Ace didn’t go to the rental counter like mere mortals.

He also has a piercing with a stud and loop earrings in just one ear. Ace is very manly with his prominent and firm muscles that perfectly shaped his t-shirt. His obviously strong and firmly muscled legs are screaming inside his black sweatpants. He is very manly and firmly muscled but definitely not the bulky one like wrestlers or boxers. The couple never thought that Blaze would be friends with someone like the guy. "Ahm...good morning sir, ma'am. I'm Ace Anderson" Ace politely greeted the couple while he extended his hand for a handshake.
