Chapter: ObservingNot to say that it was bothering me, but it somehow made me feel a bit too observed. I knew how his look on me could affect my whole body and everything I did was to figure out how to ignore his glaring at this point. The worst thing was, Enzo didn’t just watch what I did, he also followed every motion of the man that sat across from me. And as good as I could see and interpret this, Tyler was very much aware that his bodyguards weren’t the only guys that had an eye on him during this entire dinner. When the waiter from earlier arrived with our ordered food, I was just glad to have found an opportunity to distract myself a bit and not look down onto my lap while awkwardly playing with my fingers. Although the only thing I did was to stab my fork into the small dish as I tried looking possibly busy. It

Chapter: MesmerizingWe reached the restaurant earlier than expected and I exited the car after Enzo had opened the door for me again. It was a building inside the city so a few heads of people that were around turned towards me and watched how I disappeared inside the restaurant. Charles had already handled everything and I was straight brought to my table by a waitress. There sat Tyler, already grinning at me. I could sense that he was happy to see me across from him. Of course he was proud that he was able to convince me that easily, but he had no clue that the main reason why I even agreed to come was because my father wanted me to. It wasn’t my plan to play with his heart, I didn’t want to hurt his feelings. Actually I didn't even

Chapter: Reassurance I was woken up by my phone ringing. I swung up from my couch, realising I fell asleep with the book still in my hands. I jumped up when I saw on my phone how late it was. And, moreover, Enzo was the one that called me. My eyes widened, even though I was practically still half asleep. My heart pounded, as I remembered that I was supposed to meet up with Taylor. Feeling how anxiety crossed my body I finally picked up. “Rose, do you know how long I waited for you to pick up? You should be ready as soon as possible. According to Charles, who is already at the location of the restaurant, Conson is waiting for you. And we need ten minutes at least to drive there.” He scolded me and my heart pounded against my chest aggressively.

Chapter: Just jealousy?*Vera*Like I had expected, his eyes were getting any softer, so I decided to answer his unspoken question. "It was Tyler Conson. He wants to take me to dinner tomorrow." His body froze. I could feel how thick the air got so suddenly. This wasn't a good sign at all. It needed about a minute until he spoke up, a long damn minute. The atmosphere was so uneasy and tense, it seemed to strain all of my muscles. A chill ran down my spine at the sight of his darkening eyes. And it wasn't a good kind of chill.Suddenly his

Chapter: Caller*Vera* Finally my doorbell rang and I headed through my room, a bit excited for what was waiting for me. But ready for an eventful night with my so called secret boyfriend. God, it was such a cliche that we had this forbidden relationship without anyone knowing. I really wasn’t sure what to think about the fact that he told Charles and Casey so early. It was very brave of him to risk all of this. But I would know more after I would be more precisely informed about his plan or whatsoever. “Hey, are you ready, Baby?” He greeted while a beautiful but playful grin embellished his lips.

Chapter: Surprise *Vera*A few hours later, after I finished college things and texted a little with Jaehyun, my phone was ringing again, making me curious. I fastly rushed from my bedroom to the living room, where it was laying on the table, to pick it up. I didn't have to wait long until Enzo's raspy voice was heard through the speaker. It gave me chills although it was just such a simple thing. "Vera, can I pick you up in ten minutes?" He came straight to the point. "But you know, Casey is still outside standing in front of my door and
