She asked for some time alone."Yes, Tiny." He boyishly grinned at her.
"What are you doing here? I thought I.."
"Yes. I remember you said you wanted a quiet time, not some fresh air from me."
"That is not the case."
"Well then what is it?"
"You should leave."
"Wait. Are you here to plot slutty Rebecca's death? Well, that's good. Think before you leap. Well, is that not it?"
"Goodness sake what do you want man?!" She screamed, snapping at him.
"Let's get on with our arrangement. You called me last night, remember?"
"I don't feel like doing it anymore."
"Not happening. You already gave me your word. You called me willingly, remember?"
"Yes I did but I beg to take it back. Yo

He said she shouldn't be worried about Arabella but the hell she was. More now since she's going to her place for the first time after learning that they are related.Parking her car, she walked to the door and waited after knocking on it to be led in.A second turned to minutes and no one came to open the door for her. With all patience drained, all she wanted to do is break in and cause a scene but she remembered. No one deserves her anger from the most excruciating week ever except for the dark haired man with rare aquamarine eyes.Reaching her hand out to turn the knob, it opened, leaving her hand in mid-air.The door is now open but no way to get in. Standing at the entrance is Arabella, blocking her way in with a jaw that was almost sweeping the floor for reasons she's yet to know.Destiny snapped her fingers before her and as if in a trance, she blinked."Oh hello. Who are you and what have you done to my

"You've met my brother finally!" Ara gushed out. "Tell me, what do you think of him? I was right wasn't I?""About what exactly?""That he's hot and so freaking handsome.""I wasn't enthralled.""I don't think so but anyway, tell me about how it went."She sighed. "Ara?""Mmm""Do you remember rule number 9?""I don't. Enlighten me." She batted her long natural lashes at her."Rule number nine says our families are a no-go area. Nothing amorous can go on so stop wishing for it.""The last time I checked, that was Lee and Elle's preposterous rule in the kissing booth.""Yes.""In case you've forgotten, that rule was later broken if we had any at all."Destiny sighed. "Just stop trying to work us up already. It won't work." If only she knows how of a dick her brother is. She glanced back, hoping that Arabella's mom comes back quickly. She was hungry and mostly want to be saved from

"Are you okay? We can go to my room then we can talk." Ara suggested."It's okay. I'm just going to help clean up.""You don't have to do that.""Of course I have to. It's the only thing I can do after being served such amazing food." Then she walked away.After everyone had eaten, Destiny helped to clear the table with Arabella's mom."Hey, it's fine. You don't have to." Isabella tried to stop her."No. I want to." She said and moved to the sink."Destiny—""Please mom, I want to.""Alright then." Isabella hesitated before finally leaving.She began to load the dishwasher when Ara stepped into the kitchen. She watched her quietly and Destiny, who knew that she was being watched, waited for her to say what she wanted to say."I want to help." She picked a tablecloth to wipe off the counter while Destiny soaks the pots."You look sullen." Ara began. "I could come with you

.."I came here because I couldn't get a hold of you. Neither was Ara"It didn't make sense earlier but it does now to her. But the question was, why was he calling her? Was it job-wise? ****"Don't laugh." Wilhelm warned but Destiny could barely keep it in. She bit inside her cheeks to stop the deep laughter waiting to bubble out."Damn it! You're even the cause of this." And then he got up again hurriedly.The laughter came to an end and the smile dropped as well when he said she was the cause."Hey. Are you okay?" Destiny couldn't help but ask when Wilhelm came back from the washroom the umpteenth time."I wish I had not eaten it." He muttered, taking the seat beside her again."Ate what?""Oh, you've forgotten? That shit you prepared last night and called it food." He scoffed.Destiny licked her dry lip

She felt his arm come around her waist when they made it out of the car. She whirled to face him, her hands on his shoulders then hooking them behind his neck.She leaned in and whispered against his neck. "You can't walk me in with your hands around my waist. No touchy touchy remember?"He chuckled. "How will they believe?""I didn't come here to prove to the world that I am dating you, Mr. Grey. I only have to prove to Richard.""It's just my hands on your waist." He whispered back. Richard was getting things from the car."No, it isn't. We're going to look like we're up for a honeymoon instead of work. It doesn't look professional. Remember you're the CEO.""Your point is clear. Just keep giving me adorable love eyes and I will return it with a ' deep in love' look.""Huh?""Something like this." He said and gave her an intense smoldering look. It looked so real. Even though it was fake, no man has ever looked

BTBB 28She stared in grave horror as Richard kept throwing punch after punch at Wilhelm and he wasn't doing anything to stop him or even fight back.Still in shock, she didn't know if it was because he kissed her again which was contrary to the rules, or because Richard is here all of a sudden just to catch him on it and kill him.Kill him?Destiny snapped back to reality."Enough Richard!" She screamed with all her might that her throat hurt at the end.He paused. "Why should I stop? This man was taking advantage of you.""Seriously Davidson? You barged

..........The buzzing of her phone woke her up. She blindly searched for it and when she finally got a hold of it, she answered without looking at the ID."I'm still in..." She was mumbling when she got cut off."Hi Des, it's...wait. Were you saying you're still in bed?"Destiny got up to a sitting position and begrudgingly rubbed her eyes. "Ara?""Yes, baby."Destiny rolled her eyes. "You sound cheery.""Of course. Wanna guess it?""You know I just woke up. My brain needs time before it starts functioning.""I'll buy your excuse.""So?""I'm going on a date.""Oh wow. You found someone or it's a man.""I found someone.""That's wonderful Ara.

He started expecting a call or text from him.Slowly, the sun hid back behind its clouds and she was about to retire to bed herself.But could she sleep without talking to him?Her phone was beside her and she kept checking it every second. Every message tone, every incoming call sent her jumping up to reach her phone only to be disappointed.At eleven, she began to force herself to sleep as she was no longer sure he'd call her.

"Whatever you do, make sure you don't miss Christmas with me." She brushed her thumb over his beautiful lips while staring deep into his blue-green eyes.She feels so weak and helpless."I won't." He kissed her thumb."Come back soon." She whispered, her voice threatening to break."I will."She dropped her thumb, tightened their entwined hands, and leaned into him, resting her head against his arm.Sooner or later, she'd have to say goodbye and she's not ready for that.

The moment the elevator dinged, her heart leaped along with it but she didn't flinch and pretended to be engrossed. The closer his steps got, the more his fragrance filled her nostrils. Her insides tightened in excitement. He closed earlier than usual today. "Mmm...what is it you're reading?" He came around and kissed the corners of her lip. "Why do you wanna know? You never cared." She asked, smiling but never looking up from the book. "I've seen you go from scared to happy, in love and despair. More of despair. You've cried a bucket full already. I can't take it." He pitched in a sorrowful tone.

Destiny invited a waiting Ara to have breakfast with them. A very awkward breakfast.When it was over she asked Ara to her room but she declined."Outside then?""Is there not a seat on the balcony?""There is." Destiny breathed, clutching to the sides of her dress.When they got there, Destiny sat on the wicker chair, expecting her to join her but she didn't.The early morning sun of mid-July warmed Destiny's skin to the point of scorching. July weather in America has always been harsh. She looked down from the blinding sunlight while waiting for Ara to speak.Ara stood against the railings and placed her hand on it while her eyes remained below, taking in the
