Chasing Sofia Chapter 84
SOFIATonight was just boring.The day had been too and I had been forced to pick up my phone to call Alex. But after I looked up his number and was about to press send, I just dropped the phone and sighed deeply.Was I supposed to even think of calling him? The last time I did, we ended up in each other's arms, with me crying and him trying to make me stop. Wasn't that enough fuck up to deal with?I grumbled and got up to drink water. My eyes caught the wall clock, it was past six. Still early evening but I felt like I've lived today for more than the eighteen hours. I felt so old and rusty.I was at that period again when everything seemed choked up. When I start to feel so overwhelmed and want to cry. And this happened if something from my past comes to my present. It comes unannounced and distorts my peace of mind. And that distortion was Jake Kurt, my ex-boyfriend.I went back to sit at the edge of the bed. I just couldn't believe I was going to see him again in this life time af
Chasing Sofia Chapter 85
SOFIA When I had seen Jake again, I couldn't deny the fact that something in me moved. Just like it had years ago when I first met him.And where was that? It was at a bar, I was drunk, so drunk to go back home and when I had finished my fifth bottle, I had gotten up and saw him.The bottle of alcohol was still in my hand as I stood up to come face to face with him. He was looking at me and he was coming close. When he was close enough, he had stopped and leaned closer. The way he had leaned in close, his eyes were flickering with mischief. It was a blur, yet I could still make out his features, just his eyes and his face.They were beautiful. I could even describe how he looked then. He had this piercing blue eyes and chiseled nose made that seemed to be made from one of Michelangelo's sculpture. He was that perfect. And there was a way he had looked at me then and after we began to date. It was if I were the only woman in the world. Despite our breakup then, I couldn't deny his und
Chasing Sofia Chapter 86
SOFIAI felt myself floating, more like being above water like a piece of paper. I felt light headed and calm.The evening's event was starting to leave my body system gently and I was no longer angry, just calm and should I say tipsy? I only had a bottle of alcohol. It's been long I had it. Gone were those days when I could still bear to take about five bottles (I wasn't a drinker, but alcohol suits my taste better than wine), especially in cases like this.I wanted something to burn my throat badly and maybe hurt my chest till I feel like screaming to the whole world. One thing still had the chance to flow freely in my mind. If I was drunk, I always had different thoughts. Now, I had just a single thought, it was that of Alex.I was suddenly thinking about how I met him and the circumstances surrounding the meeting. It was at a bar and he had walked up to me like he knew me from Adam, even said my name. Wasn't that supposed to bother me at first? Even though I was drunk, I have thou
Chasing Sofia Chapter 87
ALEX Wanton splendor…I allowed the cold water run through my body like it was my second skin. It gave me this satisfaction I haven’t felt in a while. The coldness penetrated into my skin, boring into my blood streams and touching that part of me that needed to be set asleep.I closed my eyes, totally aware of the amount of water that was running through my blood stream. The sound of running water filled the room, creating a serene atmosphere that I was slowly falling in love with. I adjusted the temperature to ensure it was refreshingly cold. Even if Blake refused to give me the Crow Cartel, I would enjoy the luxury of a good bath. Right now, I didn’t even want to think about that man and his Cartel.I slowly submerged myself into the icy water, feeling an immediate sensation of complete satisfaction. The coldness enveloped my body, awakening my senses and replenishing my tired muscles. It was as if each droplet of water carried with it a burst of energy, enthusiasm and hope for me.
Chasing Sofia Chapter 88
ALEX She came to offer herself on a platter of gold, who was I to reject that? I hadn’t even thought of how to kill her, I just thought about the things to do before I kill her. I planned to win her trust completely, confess my undying love to her and then wait till she confesses her love then I was going to change personalities at that point. And from Romeo, I would become Lucifer. Isn’t that the best plan ever?And what was going to end her life? A bullet wound on the forehead? A knife stab cut? Or a planned accident in the bathroom, or it could be using the pillow to end her life. There were about other ways to die that I had in my head, and each one was a way of escape. As far as I was concerned, everyone in the office knows I was closer to her, they wouldn’t ever think that I might murder her, because just as Susan had said that day, I was ‘long, lean and lethal’, but, I couldn’t hurt my Cinderella. The best murder plan had been formulated in my mind. I just needed the right w
Chasing Sofia Chapter 89
SOFIA So this is what it feels like? I must be dreaming but I was damn sure I was sober and very much aware of my surroundings so I knew everything that happened last night. It felt like a dream but I knew it was real, yes, Alex and I made love.As I sat down to enjoy my breakfast, I couldn’t help but smile as I reminisced about the incredible sexual encounter I had with the man I had been considering to date, that man was Alex! The details of that night were still fresh in my mind, and I found myself reliving every moment with a sense of satisfaction and longing.I hadn’t thought I would be able to take the bold step I took that night. I was scared, so damn scared of being rejected. The problem would have made me even quit because I wouldn’t know what he had in his mind each time he sees me at the office (or, I could just blame it on the alcohol because I made me think I was drunk) . And then when I had kissed him and he didn’t respond, I was shattered, damn, I was angry.But then h
Chasing Sofia Chapter 90
SOFIA His words were so firm and I was pulled to want to obey but I said nothing and he just left me standing. I wasn’t even sure why he was so angry. He had this flaming fire in his eyes and it scared the hell out of me, I wished I knew what he was thinking as at that time.He had said his last words like I had no other choice than to obey. He had said, “well, I don’t expect you to say yes immediately. But I know you would still obey.”And now, thinking about it, I realized that sooner or later, I was going to obey him, like I was going to move into his house. I knew this because of my fear. My life had flashed right in front of me and I had almost lost the power to move because of shock. When I had first saw the man with the axe, all the blood in my body system had died and I was unable to move, I had moved at the last minute when the axe was just close to my face.That single swing could have ended my life, it could have completely damaged my face and I was going to really bleed t
Chasing Sofia Chapter 91
ALEX The love making was making love.That was what I would say to what happened between Sofia and I. It's been long, yes, the last time I had sex was about a year ago... Or, I wasn't even sure. I didn't put that in the list of my priorities so I didn't take it as something that important.Sex was the last thing on my mind when I came to New York. And I sat at my apartment bar, staring down at my drink, the memories from my past sexual experience flooded my mind. I couldn't help but think about the last sexual experience I had. It wasn't anything to write home about, that's for sure. It had been lacking in excitement, passion, and genuine connection.I had gone through the motions, desperate for some kind of physical release, but as I looked back on it, I couldn't help but feel a sense of emptiness. The sex was not nice at all. It didn't fulfill me in the way I had hoped it would. But this with Sofia? Damn! I had this kind of feeling of fulfillment. Like it was something I had alway
