Chapter 26. Alex can dance to Beyoncé’s Single Ladies.

“Act normal.”

I furrowed my eyebrows. “What’s that supposed to mean?”

Alex's hand left mine as he stepped out of the elevator on the top floor. He didn’t even glance back. “Just don’t be.” He paused. “-you.”

I scoffed, walking at a brisk pace trying to match his pace. “What is that supposed to mean?”

Alex ignored my question. He stopped briefly at the door of the rooftop lounge. “Under the name Ricci or asshole.”

The desk staff was a pretty lady dressed in navy blue vest and skirt uniform with a golden bow tie. She seemed taken aback at Alex’s words. “Sorry, Sir. What was the reservation name again?”

Alex exhaled loudly as if tired of taking the name over a hundred times already. “Ricci. Sebastian As

Sometimes we forget to take care of the things we love.“Have they caught the guy from Athena’s hit and run yet?”Alex looked up from his laptop at my sudden question. “No, the license plate was a fake and the nearby cameras caught the image but he was wearing a cap so his face is not visible.”I sighed, slumping down the couch beside him. “Why would anyone target Athena?” I put up my legs on the table and crossed my ankles.Alex lightly slapped my thigh. “Feet off the table. How many times should I tell you?”I twisted my lips in annoyance but reluctantly kept my feet back on the floor.“I am not sure. But we are tracking it down.”I scratched the back of my neck, staring the plain glass table in front.“What?”So lost in my thought, I jolted when Alex’s hand touched my shoulder.

    Chapter 28. Karma is my long lost friend. I was standing at the place I didn’t think I would ever see again. I stared at the barred gates and security guards walking around.The same lady was sitting at the desk again, her feet on the table as she flipped through a Vogue magazine.“Damn those skinny bitches.” She muttered under her breath, staring at the pages and turning them violently.I swallowed blinking and looking around, wondering if this was a wrong decision. No one knew I was here, Alex thought I was with Zivah and Zivah thought I was with Alex, if those two talked now – I would be so screwed.But I needed to this – to confess.As much as Ray Parker deserved this, my unconscious mind hadn’t been able to sleep for the past many months. The guilt was weighing me down and with each passing second, it was drawing a hole in my heart.Maybe Athena was right

I am her boyfriend.”“And she lied to you.” Evan taunted.“Why are you even here?”“Because I can be.”“Get out, this is my house.” Alex’s voice stiffened.“No, Myra is my friend. So I’ll stay until she wakes up.” Evan said with conviction.“You are so annoying.”“You are so stupid.”"You are stupider."

    Chapter 30. The pet store called, they want their bitch back.I was lying on my bed, cuddled in a Panda blanket. It was past 12 in the afternoon.Perks of being jobless.I groaned wondering how I could still feel sleepy after sleeping for over 10 hours. Sighing to myself I closed my eyes again, sinking into the soft blanket. “5 more minutes.” I muttered to myself.I woke up again. It was 2 o’clock.“Ugh.” I stretched my arm trying to find where the vibration was coming from. I had my phone right next to the pillow when I slept, where could it go now?Following the vibration my hand ended up at the end of the bed, on the other side. I started at the phone. “How did you end up here?”I looked at the caller ID, appreciating the clear screen of my new phone. I had finally got a new phone a few weeks back, with my own money. The blank cheque Alex had given when

I loved to hear the stories about Evan and his roommate - Calvin, they would play endless pranks on each other and I would end up laughing hysterically at their ideas.Evan grinned. “So he is very possessive about his stuff. He hardly lets anyone touch his products, including soap and toothpaste.”My eyes widened, a little excited about this prank. “What did you do?”Evan leaned back casually, smirking to himself. “I covered his soap in nail polish and now it doesn’t lather and he keeps complaining about it. And then using super glue I stuck his toothpaste to the holder so when he went to brush yesterday morning, he spent over 15 minutes just trying to get the toothpaste out.”I chuckled, shaking my h

I huffed. “Rich enough.”“Do I know him?”I stared at the ceiling in exasperation. “How would you know him Ma?”“I know every rich man out there.”I looked at Alex who was struggling to put the bedsheet. If he adjusted one corner, the opposite one would come out and vice versa. He had been trying to do it since the past five minutes and it was hilarious.I chuckled as I saw him huff and pull at the bedsheet so hard that it came right off the bed and landed on his face.“Why are you laughi

He patted his chest, not sparing me a glance. “What?” he choked out.I blinked at him with a blank face, the ‘Happy Birthday’ banner in my hand. “Why won’t you do it?” I repeated.Alex scratched his arm and I saw this cheeks and ears slowly turning red. He fumbled with words as he spoke. “What are you talking about?”I moved the balloon packet and sat down next to him on the bed. “It’s been months since we started dating. I know you didn’t wait for this much for all your ex-girlfriends. So why me?”Alex couldn’t even look at me. He was twisting the balloon in his hand. “I didn’t have any ex-girlfriends.” He corr

Now.”And then I started removing my clothes.Alex stared at me, almost like he had suddenly sobered up. He instantly got up without stumbling as I had almost removed my top. He held my arms. “No! What are you doing? Are you mad?”I giggled at his expression. I shook my head, pouting at him. “Do you not want to?”He swallowed, a faint blush once again covering his ears. “I do.”“Then?

It’s dotted.”“Your favorite.”“Great I’ll take this dotted net bag to Athena and put the wedding rings in it.” I

Open the door.”“We are harmless. Open the door.”I gave Alex a ‘what the fuck’ look. “Harmless?Whoneeds to know that?”Alex shrugged. “You don’t know it could be the police out there.”I pointed at the door, motioning him to listen to the childish squeals and yells. “That isnotthe police.” I strained my ears suddenly freezing in shock. “Is that Zivah?”Alex touched his ear to the door. “And Evan?”

    Chapter 42. I should make you wear my red lingerie.I started at the creepy line of warehouses with a shiver running down my spine. There were three and all of them looked worn down.How did Athena even know about this place? Or was it Ray’s idea?Either way, the place was old, deserted, and looked pretty haunted. Perfect for hiding. Perfect for killing.I took small steps towards the first warehouse, my car was parked a few blocks away to avoid attention. My eyes scanned over the place but it was so silent except for the annoying noise of crickets.As I neared the place I paused straining my ears to hear any movement or noise from inside the warehouses but it was still silent. I wondered if they were even in there, maybe it was just a hoax. I quickly looked around for any signs of cameras but I couldn’t see them either.“Wow.” I whispered to myself. “I can’t bel

It’s not from your ex-boyfriend. It’s from your future husband.”Ray Parker’s haughty cackle was the one to haunt me forever.“So are we burning that fish now?”I stared at the talking fish in ultimate horror.“Is-” I took in a shaky breath, clutching on the couch for support, afraid that I might faint from shock and fear. “Is that Ray?”“I am afraid so.” Zivah’s voice shook, coming closer to me. I could feel the waves of fear coming from her too. “Do you think he can see and hear us?” she whispered into my ears.I continued t

With me.” I scoffed, not denying that it surely hurt my ego.“Let it go.” Evan said. “It has been more than two weeks.”I narrowed my eyes at him. “Where is your girlfriend anyways? She has disappeared. No calls, no messages. Are you sure she isn’t cahooting with the enemy?”Evan flinched and I could see the hurt in his eyes but I didn’t care. He leaned towards Zivah. “What is with her?”Zivah rolled her eyes. “She’s gone mad. It’s the breakup fever. She’s throwing truth bombs which will hurt. Ignore her. I know I am.”Evan nodded but gave me a stink eye. In response, I sent him a deadly glare.I looked back a

I had barely survived.“Myra, you need to drink water.” Zivah demanded, pushing the glass of water into my hand.I didn’t protest. I just drank the tasteless liquid and gave the empty glass back to her. “I don’t understand.” I breathed out. “Why-why would he break up overthat?”Zivah patted my back lightly. “Look he was just angry, frustrated, and tired. I am sure he didn’t mean it.”I scoffed at her words. “Didn’t mean it? Did you forget the whole scene?” I smiled in a taunting manner. “Let me remind you.”Flashback.He opened his eyes, his eyes hardening a little. “I- uh -we- we have been hacked again.”My jaw dropped and for a second so did my breathing

It’s been almost a year.”“You can’t count the four months you two didn’t date.”I threw my head back in frustration. “Zivah, I really want to live with him.” I sighed. “I love him.”“And I love you but I am not asking you to live with me. Am I?” Evan shouted.I frowned at him. “Why are you even here?”“Because I was bored.”I gritted my teeth. “I am going to tell Athena that you want to live with me.”Eva
