By Ruthlessness I Rule 35
CressidaMy muscles felt like they were on fire when I started regaining consciousness, body hurting like a bitch. I started opening my eyes slowly, trying to force myself to adjust to the many lights around me, hospital lights no doubt."Cressida." There it was. I would've been surprised if he wasn't beside me and the first to call out my name once I'm awake.So I looked beside me to take a good look at him. He had dark circles beneath his eyes, telling me that he had quiet sleepless nights because of me and even his green eyes looked tired and who could blame him.Both of us suffered way too much till this moment but that face off with Queens was a last straw for everyone. It revealed secrets and brought back some horrifying memories and apparently almost killed me given that I'm still alive."I'll be right back." Talia's voice came from beside me and I saw her move towards the door but she was a blur when all I could see was Savaş, the man I thought wouldn't see again because deat

Cressida"Why are we here?" I questioned the man who was pulling me with him after taking us into this abandoned warehouse. There were tables everywhere full of knives and what looked like torturing tools… what the hell was this place?"You'll see, Güzel." He declared to me before we came to a stop in the middle of the warehouse, like we were waiting for something and deep down, I think I knew why we were here…If I know Savaş which I believe I do then there was no way he let the Queens go which meant he did some unthinkable stuff and maybe it was the Raven's Caw doing something alongside him as well but I didn't think I would even be mad.And I was right because moments later Ace and Oliver came down some stairs in the warehouse, each had one of the two men, pushing them towards us until they were standing right in front of us and hit the back of their knees making them kneel before us."Go on, apologies." Savaş ordered Noah but he was just looking at me, pure hatred covering his fe

Cressida Three Years later "Are you okay?" Ember asked, eyeing me suspiciously and who could blame her because I wasn't exactly fine and while she thought that my kidney was acting up… that wasn't the case. "Yes I'm fine, it's just I still want to kill Oliver for this." I told her and that wasn't a complete lie because I did want to kill him for what he did but I lied because that wasn't why I was bouncing my leg up and down or why I had my face turn pink. Despite the fact that knowing I was Talia's and Oliver's wedding after she was forced to marry him still made my blood boil and I'll be sure to make him pay for it but again that wasn't the case for my situation now. The case was that my husband, being the asshole that we both knew he was, decided that he wanted to play a few days before now and I ended up losing a bet. The bet was that the other can do whatever they want with the other for a full day of their choice and he wanted that day to be today… of all days and also h

Has it ever occurred to you that a few words could seal your fate? I know it seems ridiculous, but for me… they did. Seven fucking words sealed my fate in my new high school. I didn’t know how to break the curse that came upon me, or if it was possible to be free of it at all. I wished I’d just listened to Talia that day and looked away. But I didn’t. My decision turned three years of my life upside down, and as much as I wished I could reverse it, I couldn’t. I regretted my action. But the thing about regret is… it’s a fucking waste of time. ********************* “It’s going to be fine, Ida,” Dad said softly. As CEO of Arne Enterprises, Isaac Arne had a reputation to uphold. But this tone of voice was one he saved just for me, in the comfort of home. He was a wealthy man who gave me and my twin brother, Jack, anything we ever asked for. So did our mother… when she was still alive. “I didn’t say anything.” Which was true. I technically didn’t say anything, but I knew my fac

CressidaThree Years LaterJack answered the phone with a chuckle. “Miss me already?” Hearing his chuckle was more than enough to make my day.“Bitching already?” I faked a gasp as I stopped at the traffic light and adjusted the Bluetooth ear piece. “Stop being a little shit. Why are you calling?” “I missed you. I know you left London a week ago, but I would miss you even if you left two seconds ago.” He paused, and I knew there was more, so I clutched the steering wheel tightly so I could hide my sadness and frustration about not being beside him when he needed me the most.“If it wasn’t for Aunt Valerie here, I wouldn’t have survived my seizures without having you beside me. But it’s fine… one year to go.” One more year in that hell I’d been living in for the past three years. The same hell Talia endured with me. And thank God she was with me, because I doubt I would’ve survived without her. Who would survive what we had to go through on their own? No one.“One year to go.” My vo

CressidaThe tension in the classroom didn’t seem to lessen with time. Everyone was whispering about how Savaş chose me over Blake. It felt wrong, but somehow right at the same time.I ignored him for the rest of the class and even after it ended. I could feel his eyes on me constantly, but I simply kept on ignoring. No one called me or Talia any names as we walked through the hallways of the school to our lockers. Not one bad word got directed at us. I had to double check to see if Savaş or any of the horsemen were behind us because it would’ve been the only explanation after what happened today.Savaş insulted Blake in front of everyone, for my sake. Not that I believe he actually helped me for… well, me. There has to be a reason behind that action of his, because there is no way that he just turned into a good person towards us. Not after all this time.But I wasn’t sure what to feel about this whole thing. I had hated Savaş for a very long time… and I still do, but why exactly di

Cressida Usually In a situation like this my brain goes into a fight or flight mode but I couldn't do either of those. Savaş took both options off the table as he had me trapped against my own car, I couldn't fight, hell I could barely breathe with this position we're in and flight was also out of question. So what the fuck was I supposed to do? He finally removed his hand from my mouth and I didn’t waste my chance to ask any question that came to my mind."What are you talking about?" I asked and had to use all my strength so that my voice wouldn't tremble because I was afraid but that wasn't all, there was something else going on with me because of this situation and I didn’t like it."I don't appreciate it when people pretend that I don't exist, Arne and you of all people don't get to do that." His voice was so low and dangerous that it should have me running the other way as quickly as I could but it felt like I was paralysed. "I didn't do anything to you!" I yelled at him, no

Cressida Why am I even searching about this? Right, because I wanted to know more about Savaş Ewald.Turns out his name means 'War' which suited him greatly.Meanwhile I finally knew what the word he always says to me means. Güzel is a Turkish word that means beautiful but why does he call me that? I mean does he really think I'm beautiful or is he just being flirty? Why the hell would I care if he thought I'm beautiful? I know I am!!Damn it… he's occupying without even being around so how the hell am I supposed to face him tomorrow after what happened today's afternoon in the parking lot, where anyone could have seen us. Shit! I'm only now thinking about that? Why didn't I remember this info when we were in the parking lot? Because I'm an Idiot! A knock on my bedroom door had me sitting up in the bed but no one entered the room which meant it's Dad."Ida? Talia is here, she wants me to see if you're awake." "Yes I'm awake!" I yelled but made no attempt to get up and open the d
