As Luke sweated all over his chest even in this winter, the blankets slid off as he gulped down a whole glass of water in a blink. A black long hand with pointy fingers came out of his bed underneath crawling down, which creeped him so much that the water in hi smooth froze. His eyes widened to see the hand as the room was dark with a streak of light coming from the window. His heart raced.

He slowly gulped down the water stuck in his mouth, locking his eyes on the thing slithering down as he noticed another same pointy hand came out following the former which tried coming out. Fear struck, Luke couldn’t even move as his whole body felt stiff from this sudden entity coming out of his bed like some giant monster was hiding down.

The room was too gloomy to see clearly how those monstrosities moved as he breathed heavily, shaking in fear. His hands trembled to grab the bed sheet, clutching them tightly when his other hand rustling t

    Ryan walked down the alley, radiantly shining through the bright sunshine as his hands waving with the rhythm of his whistle. His face as bright as the sun shining above, his feet felt like dancing along each step he took. His joy multiplied as Ashton informed him in the early morning that he won’t open the shop today, so the entire afternoon he was free.A cellphone on his left hand lit up with notification sound when his smile beamed even more. Eyes sparkling, fixed on the screen, he tapped swiftly to reply. He was about to collide on old man but noticed him on time to visit the collision with an apologetic look.The street was bustling with the crowd in the morning, the flower shop as usual with no apparent customer gracefully laid in the middle of that street while the album store right beside was so crowded people could barely see inside. Perhaps some famous artist was giving out signed copy. He shrugged and walked on his

    “Ryan!!” Darius yelled at his lungs, wearing a blue t-shirt with a print of cheese on his chest. His hairs dragged themselves in front of his forehead, which he combed back to present himself as handsome. “We’re going to be late, Ryan!”Piles of clothes laid on the bed, covering the bed like a brand new mattress made of scrambled cloth and two suitcases left on the ground open. No one cared for them as he rummaged to take his deodorant and sprayed all over him. Now he was ready, but the other one wasn’t who was still in shower.Darius came home last night, as his friend urged him to go to the signing event with him and he had to travel back in the evening. With the long journey of three hours, he came back nearly 9 pm and was too exhausted to unpack his bag and left them alone, which made this mess in the early morning.The event will start at 11 am but Ryan, who was overexcited all night f

    Ryan, startled to see the guy behind him, in an ivory shirt stretching long across his bulging chest. His eyes lowered t the direction of the book on Ryan’s hand, the man asked, “Here to sign?” His voice was as melodic as ever. Ryan nodded, aghast to see his mesmerizing beauty shining in the bright lights inside the place. “O-Owen?” he mumbled loud enough to hear, as he churches the book on his chest, dumb struck to find him here in the middle of this enormous crowd. “Here for the signing event,” Owen started casually, looking at the podium where the author should arrive soon, but he was late. And the crowd was chattering along about his late arrival, not pleased at all. Even Ryan himself was waiting in the queue and now his dumb mind couldn’t figure out how come Owen came here? He could just order a signed copy directly by calling the publishing house. Why bother to stand in line to meet him? Owen spoke up, as if he knew

    ***Warning*** ***This chapter contains erotic scene.*** The bags were way too large for Ryan to hold them in his tiny hands. The large pack of stuff toys took his entire side while his other hand barely had any space to hold the cold drinks Darius brought for. As he handed the drink and intended to take some of the packages from him to carry them home, his hands froze in the air, eyes fixed on a guy trotting towards them in an enraged manner. His footsteps became louder and louder. He came as if he was parading through the mall. Darius seemed stiffened at the very sight of this tall bulky guy, hair slid to the side, undercut visible, a typical playboy look. Ryan wondered if he really was a playboy like he looked. But before he could make any more assumption how this guy would be, he felt a swept of wind as the guy grabbed his friend’s arm to yank him, taking him somewhere. Darius was stunned to even

    Darius noticed him halt in the middle of his lips, lingering inside his mouth. Though he enjoyed every touch of Noah, his hot skin desired more, but as Noah jolted back, getting away quietly, Darius saw three people gawking at them. And one of them was Ryan, which made his organs lurch inside. His vision cleared up to see a woman in casual wear whom he knew, Stacey. And the other he never expected to see there was Owen, the very person he despised.The moment Ryan and Stacey ran for them, wondering where Noah might have taken him, Owen came across them, who was searching for Ryan from earlier when his signing was done. As he promised to meet Ryan after signing, but the complete process of signing and the additional event of gifts took a long while, Owen missed the timing. When he saw Ryan in the crowd running to somewhere, he followed him.But what he witnessed was shocking enough for him to gag, yet he cursed when Ryan looked at hi

    The café was as bustling as ever with the swarms of people crowding the entire place. With all the tables occupied, Ryan stood on the counter, leaning onto the desk, his cellphone on his hand when Luke asked him to serve a tray of desserts he made to the table nearby.Luke seemed better with no eye bags under his sharp eyes, gazing through his ebony eyes. Ryan nodded instantly as his loving gaze pierced through his chest. One hand carrying and balancing the tray while the other clothing his cellphone tight. He felt like falling, though managed to serve without spilling anything. He should have taken the tray after putting his mobile away.His usual bright demeanor beamed through the lady customers, even those ladies in forties. They never get enough of Luke until he gave them a sweet kiss, sweeter than those brown sugars in the kitchen cabinet. He knew Luke disliked these gestures of them, but these middle-aged aunts live in

    The guy on the call seemed eager to meet him, even though Ryan never heard of this guy being their family lawyer ever. However, he lived in Dayholt household for just a few months and those few months he spent in utter despair with his father roaming around like a hyena in the lone mansion.Ryan walked to his seat, yet his feet stuck at the sight of Stacey and Amanda still arguing about the matter of his friend and Noah. Their high-pitched shriek enveloped the great hall of the restaurant while the customers near them listened to their every argument with utmost attention, as if a minister was giving an important speech. He peeked from the distance. They seized even the waiters from doing anything to stop them.The whole place was enjoying, weird place it was. With two girls shrieking, those people should complain, yet they were interested in them more than their delicious desserts, which Ryan saw lying on the table, stranded.Their loud grun

    His feet took him back to the café even before he realized as he banged his head on the door of the café, his wondering mind settled in the door where he invited himself in. It was late, and he regretted leaving Luke alone in the shop. The café seemed crowded, though not much. His eyes hovered around to see a full family came to eat desserts with their three children and the parents themselves. He walked in to the café as he noticed another bulky familiar figure stood facing his back to him, talking to Luke in an undertone. Luke noticed Ryan came back as he greeted with a bright smile, “You back, Ryan?” Ryan nodded when the guy in front of him turned around to reveal his square face with his ash blonde pompadour. He beamed at the sight of him. “Yo, Ryan! Working good?” “Yeah, Ash-Ashton.” He saw him here for the first time since he started working, never expecting him there. Both two of his bosses were friends, but how close they were,

    “We apologize for what happened. Stan Welsh, reportedly, was sighted in the other area and we fastened security there, but never thought it could be a trap.” Said a bulky police officer in his tidy uniform. Owen and Jim stood on either side of him, listening to him carefully. Jim furrowed his eyebrows to hear him being a murderer. “Stan was on run for several months from the mental facility. At first they hushed up the case, but later they admitted their negligence and were punished for that. He had been hiding with one of his friend whom he later killed by stabbing with a sharp piece of glass. And he dumped his body in the river after it decomposed. Neighbors complained about smell, but he scared them off.” The officer sighed to see Jim’s widened eyes, while Owen looked miserable. Jim saw Amy behind the officer, running towards them when the officer asked for his leave. He nodded, and Amy joined them. “How is he?” “Doctor said. He’s fine. Just lost too much blood and when we found

    His doorbell rang as he combed his silvery hairs down to his temples. Looking excited, the person he expected all day had come and on time. The sky illuminated the dusky glow with the setting sun. His heart thumped. It was like a dream. He slapped his cheeks to get out of it, but was glad to see it was real.Ryan walked confidently to the door. This time was different. They had no feud, no disagreement, and they were just going to reconcile officially with whatever dispute they had before. The memory lane of the day he confessed came down to him. The face, he remembered, the stone face insulting his feelings. But it was a long ago.He should not dwell on that painful past and accept this present like a god sent gift. His steps staggered near the door. He took a deep breath and opened the door, his face delighted to think he was meeting him.But the moment he opened the door, his eyes found a strange man peeking at him, a man in his forties, a face

    Chapter 61: Linda’s last favorThe hall filled with gloomy conspiracies of how Natalie must have killed her husband and attempted to kill his son too, just for his wealth, and stepped back from her any chance they got. Natalie glared around those people gossiping and found her daughter in a stunning white dress in the crowd, glaring at her. She never saw this kind of look on her face. It was disgust, a pure disgust that Natalie had never received from anyone.The stage was hectic, and a pair of wide hands grabbed Ryan’s neck firmly. He staggered behind. His windpipe tightened, and he felt no air inside him. These hands belonged to Lavenda, who was out of her mind, he guessed. Her blood-red eyes darting him and cursing at her top voice, he heard not much. People from beside them pulled her off when, a minute later, he found his neck released. The sudden gust of air slammed into his lungs. He felt his life coming back slowly.Jim was behind him, holdin

He himself dressed up like a prince in his all white three-piece suit, a glimmering wrist watch, his grandfather gave him two days ago.His grandfather called him a day before yesterday evening suddenly to his mansion. Although not quite satisfied with this family, Ryan reconciled with him and decided to throw this event on his grandfather’s eighty-fifth birthday. He was more than delighted to hear his arrangements and Lavenda too, threw a family get together for her father but on Ryan’s request they turned it into a big event.He looked at his square golden watch. Mr. Dayholt specially ordered it from France to gift him. It was around eight o’clock and the hall was filling with their expected guests. He

    Jim lunged at his feet, startling her, and he mistakenly stepped on her feet and was about to scream in shock, but Amy slapped her palm on his lips, forced to mute him. Her strength made him stagger, and his back stamped on the wall behind.Amanda, on top of him, glared at him to stay quiet. Her feet must have hurt a lot. He saw her watery eyes. The torch rolled down the ground; it lit the entire floor.The lady outside quieted down and her heels slapped against the floor further away. Amanda sighed with relief, still cupping his mouth in her palm. Jim tried to speak to tell her about the uncomfortable position they were in. His chest pressed against hers, his ears burning. He felt his torso tensing up, and wanted to push her off, but he can’t thrust her off with a person lingering outside.“Shhhhh…” she flapped her finger on her lips, “I think it’s Stephanie. She must have stayed late,” she wh

    A faint caramel aroma spread through the table where Amanda sat alone. People around her gossiped on their table in their own world, trying out the delicious desserts they ordered. The walls on her side had peculiar looking arts hanging through the entire wall.Maybe art lovers will see the beauty in it, but Amy only saw some unusual blocks and colors mixed together. The owner must be a well off art lover to afford these art pieces, she reckoned when a gentle young boy, around in his teen, walked in with a tray full of desserts and served the ones she ordered.He looked as delicious as those desserts, but she had to refrain her hungry heart from doing some terrible act of flirting with a teenager. The boy left for another table and she addressed the desserts. The mouthwatering fragrance choked her. Now she understood why this place was so popular on the internet. It was far from where she worked now but a safer place in case someone eavesdrop at the

    Chapter 57: New CEOA newspaper hung low over the table, stating business news over the country, and the biggest headline was about them. Natalie crushed the newspaper with her bare palm. She wished the news would crush like that, too. She breathed heavily over the paper, glaring at the headline which said, “Owen, still missing. His family does not know. Are they really his family or are they after his wealth, after all?”She finally threw the paper aside with a nasty loud grumble, stamping her fist on the polished wooden table. Pens rattled on there but the other busybody did not even flinch. Over the table, another person sat quiet. His fingers playing with his mobile, a stack of papers left untouched right beside his head.“That son of a…” Mrs. Davenport cursed in air, her eyes hovering around to find any chance to yell at something or someone. There was only her son, David, busy in his mobile, with no attention to what’s

Jim gasped at the news he just received and took the seat beside him on the armchair. Eyes widened to the size of a ping-pong ball, Jim gawked at him for more information. Yet Ryan reluctantly waited for his excitement to subdue.The room filled in silence for an entire minute when Jim broke it. “What that cracked nut came here for!”“What nut?” Ryan asked. The words he said sounded foreign to him. He rested himself on the armchair beside Jim.“Cracked nut not walnut,” Jim corrected him, thinking how could he hear cracked nut, a walnut. But the topic was what Owen was doing here. Of all places, how could he know his residence and what about the confidentiality procedure they applied? It was nonsense to think of him

The cars they were supposed to use in their new big project of racing course next city, they used for extra profit. And according to sources, the CEO of Dayholt, who still kept us in the dark, not revealing his identity, had no knowledge of this scam he received. Mr. Owen Davenport made no statement regarding this issue, yet this morning, sources said he went missing. His secretary, Ms. Stephanie, went to say her last goodbye to him at his apartment and she found no one while he should at least be hiding in his room.” Said a blonde Latina woman flaunting her wide chest and smiling vaguely, as if trying to seduce her audiences. She somehow reminded him of Linda, same gesture, same voice tone she used while she talked about how much she like him.Thinking of her, he realized how long it was that she stopped contacting him.
