SCARLETTThe next moment, Alex got off the couch and crouched at my side, and greedily squeezed my boobs.Logan just watched with hesitation brimming in his eyes for a while, but when I was sick of it, I pushed him down on the couch and sat on him, bumping him hungrily as his brother fumbled my boobs. Excitement like I’d never felt in a long time burned through me without mercy as I submitted to their touch. The knowledge that I was about to go all the way with both Alex and Logan was so overwhelming that I thought I’d pass out. Simply making out had me wet as a never ending water fountain so I wondered how insanely thrown over the edge I’d be if they went the extra mile. Alex’s hands were impatiently tugging my shirt over my head and under the dim lighting I could see Logan pause kissing my thighs to take in the sight of my bare boobs as the spilled freely the moment my shirt was successfully out of the way. In sync, both men reached for a boob, just in different ways. While Alex
SCARLETT Blake hadn’t stopped blowing up my phone and it was driving me batshit crazy. Each time I complained about it to Alex or Logan they’d suggest that I block him, but something stubbornly wrong with me never allowed me go through with it whenever I tried to. I didn’t know why, but I wasn’t ready to completely shut him out. Something in me was eager to see how long it’d take before he’d give up on me and move on to the next conquest. Asides that, I was going on dates with Alex and Logan separately to bond with them better. Each date had me realizing that I was falling in love with both men but it equally had be mourning my lost love with Blake. However, I was still immensely grateful for how close we’d gotten and how far we’d come. We seemed to have less arguments and had learnt to hash out our disagreements with more level headed means than before and it made me think back to when I thought meeting the Vaughn men had plunged me into misery not knowing that they’d turn out t
SCARLETT Alex was such a sore loser, it pleased me to kick his ass and watch him whine. “You’re cheating, aren’t you?! You have one of those cheat cards that always guarantees you a win!” he accused me when I kicked yet another one of his chess pieces off the board. “It’s chess, you wacko. Why would I need cards to rig the game? Have you simply run out of sensible accusations?” I threw a popcorn at his head and he winced like it has hurt. So dramatic. “Harassing a player with food is foul play, that should cancel out your last five moves,” he stuck his tongue out like a child, one would think that he was the last of his siblings. “So you want to cancel out all my moves so you can be ahead of the game just because I hit you with a harmless piece of popcorn?” I asked, laughing at his silliness. “If you look really closely, you can see me bleeding,” he brought his head closer and I leaned forward just to humor him. “Show me where it hurts,” I rolled my eyes at him, waiting for the
BLAKE “A hundred roses, yes. Each of carrying one of the apology notes I sent over in the email, and I need them delivered before nightfall,” I rambled off instructions to a vendor I’d been speaking with all day instead of actually working in my office at the cafe. My foremost thought was finding a way to apologize to Scarlett and nothing else. I couldn’t function while trying to do anything but that. “Alright, sir. We’ll process your order and have it sent out as directed,” the florist said in a professional tone, “You’ll need to make your payment as soo—”My phone was suddenly slapped out of my hands and bag was dropped over my head, blinding me to my assailants as strong arms grabbed my legs and hands and lifted me off the floor and towards what seemed to be a car’s running engine. “What the hell is this bullshit!? Let me fucking go!” I fought my hardest to break free from their hold but it was gonna avail. Soon, I felt my back hit a hard metal floor which I assumed was the fl
SCARLETTI’d learnt the truth now, but at what cost?Moments after Logan and Alex rushed into the cave to find Blake, an oddly cold chill ran down my spine like danger was lurking nearby and it didn’t take long before it reared its ugly head in form of a middle aged man dressed in white and gold.He headed towards me with a huge grin that caused a familiar memory to slam into my mind’s eye like Deja Vu.Strangely, he reminded me of the creep that had been lurking a few blocks away the last time I visited Blake’s old cafe and I hated how awfully uncomfortable I felt as he approached the car with the same walking stick I’d spotted on the day I’d seen said creep.It had to be him, he fit the description perfectly.“I thought we’d never meet, beautiful, but I guess the gods have a way of delivering your rightful destiny into your laps,” his crooked smile made disgust crawl up my skin, “whether it be in form of a sacrifice, or fool in love.”I didn’t understand the parables he was speaking
SCARLETTThe sorceress that came to administer medicines and treatment to Blake was being escorted out by Alex and Logan while I took a seat by his side on the bed.“Hey,” he breathed in a small voice, his eyes barely able to stay open.I reached out and nervously ran a hand over his bruised face. He somehow managed to still look beautiful under all those scars, making my heart flutter as she shut his eyes and let out a satisfied sigh under my touch.“Hey,” I said back, my heart feeling heavier than it had in a long time.The only difference was that it wasn’t heavy with hurt this time around. It was heavy with compassion, with a fresh rush of affection, with forgiveness, with understanding.“I know I’ve said it many times than you care to hear, but I’m really sorry for hurting you Scarlett. I had no idea how much you’d mean to me in the long run, and I was stupid to agree to a mission that has to with deceiving an innocent woman who was at the peak of her life, whether I ended up fal
SCARLETTAll three Vaughn men were stealing glances at me as we set up the outdoor area for a marking ritual.I was wearing a simple knitted dress and an unimpressive pair of crocs while my hair sat on my head in a messy bun, but they all seemed to be enamored by the basic sight. I didn’t know whether to be flattered or feel like a straight up goddess that they would willingly worship.“So what’s the occasion? No one’s told me anything,” Blake spoke over the Afro beats album blasting through the speakers.I was closest to it so I turned the music down a little, noticing how Alex and Logan shot me questionable glances as if to say; you haven’t told him!?Of course I hadn’t, after we fell asleep in each other’s arms, we woke up and did more kissing and fondling than talking so my brain turned to complete mush and I forgot that I had something to tell him in the first place.“I’ll go refill the coffee.”“I’ll go check the cookies.”Alex and Logan said at the same time, looking for a mean
SCARLETTFionnula’s oracle; the sign read as the car came to a halt.Blake stepped out of the passenger’s seat and opened the back door for me while Logan got out of the other door and Alex from the driver’s seat. We all walked into the suspicious looking open shack while observing the surroundings.“She’s the most knowledgeable witch in the continent and her workshop is a shack that looks like a boring potion shop that no one has visited since the 90s?” Alex was the first to speak as we stepped into the place.I opened my mouth to respond but the dragging footsteps that echoed through the place made me clasp it shut.“I assure that I’ve had thousands of visitors everyday since the 90s, I’m just not a firm believer in tying the worth of my career to material possessions despite the fat consultation fee I charge,” the woman I believed was Fionnula appeared, her silky skin and magnificent beauty nearly knocking the air out of my lungs.Logan jabbed Alex in the side for his comment and h
