Zayne's viewpoint

I paced around my room in front of my bed, biting into my bottom nail. Cold sweat broke from my skin and a constant chill went down my spine. My legs were weak but I couldn't stop pacing and with my heart jamming hard against my ribcage and my stomach in my throat, the increased pump of blood helped maintain the chills and the tremor racking my body.

Dammit.

I messed up.

I let Zachary lure me into a fight so I'd expose how ridiculously crazy my family is to Larissa. It's already established that we are abnormal and mad people, but she didn't need to know or even witness it. I only realized what Zachary did after it was done. The smug smirk only I saw was a clear indication. He did that to piss me off and he succeeded. Zachary believed that no woman is like Mom who'll just accept our family's madness and see it as normal instead of what it truly is. His broken heart has helped him prove his point. He did that to try to make me see things from his viewpoint as well.

    Larissa's viewpointI parked the car carefully next to the expensive Mercedes Benz. I killed the engine and pulled out the key, stretching my hands upward and bending my back. The pleasant sound of my bones popping and my heart racing was music to my ears. I dropped my hands and with a wide smile on my face, I looked at the back seat of my father's car and grinned. There were a lot of shopping bags stacked in there. It turns out Zayne's sister came with a lot of gifts for me. Savia spent more money on jewelry and shoes while Serenity focused on the clothes. The most amazing thing about it is that when I checked some of the clothes, they were fancy and stylish and comfortable for me.I already planned to go with Starliss to the mall to change my wardrobe since I had every reason to change my style, but after the fight and the money consideration, I held back a lot. His sisters did it for me. I remember when I was leaving, Zachary came to me and poked me in the arm. I smiled at the memo

    Larissa's viewpointThere was silence after her acrimonious explosion, then she broke the silence with a scoff. The twitch of her finger made me know she felt guilty but she didn't want them to know that. "Stay away from Odette, Javelin. You've done enough damage. I won't allow Odette to feel the depth of betrayal as I have. If you try to contact her again, I'll sell disgraceful and harmful secrets of you and your band and ruin all of your lives and career. I'll sell them to the most dangerous reporters—"Javelin tilted his hardened jaw upward and sneered at her. "You're bluffing,"A bone-shuddering smirk sprawled on her face and her furious gaze darkened. She folded her arms under her breasts and cocked her hips. "Why don't you go online and find out if your little sister is bluffing or not," she twinkled her eyes to taunt him. I saw his body tense. He picked up his phone while still staring at her apprehensively. I didn't bother checking what she did because without a doubt Starliss

    Larissa's viewpointIt's official. This is a dilemma.We simultaneously sighed for the umpteenth time. Starliss' mother, Heloise rubbed her palm down her face and Starliss scratched her head roughly. "Urgh! How is this a predicament?!" Wondering what is going on? Well, you might have already guessed. Starliss and Heloise couldn't decide on what I should wear. Don't ask me how Heloise and Starliss reconcile so fast. I went to the kitchen to get a glass of water for five minutes and I returned to her room to see them debating on what I would wear. I could never understand her relationship with her mother and I never tried to. It's hard to wrap my head around it.According to my fashion designers, I needed something that said classy, simple, Larissa but dignified. Something that won't show that I'm trying to impress the family. Something that isn't so Larissa yet Larissa. Don't look at me, my fish head can't comprehend anything.After debating for most of the day, they settled for two di

  • It Started With A Kiss   Chapter 61: Mega Chick

    Larissa's viewpointWith a guilty and awkward smile on my face, I turned around and playfully curtsied. Savia broke into a laugh as she approached me, striding elegantly with her sneakers wedge. She was wearing an ultra-pink one-sleeve top. The 3/4 sleeve had multiple cuts in it and was somehow shaped like a bell. She was also wearing a skirt, just longer and white-colored. She still looked like a queen, especially with the way she walked. Savia's confidence and dark aura are her greatest weapon."You look lovely,""Thank you, sweet. Shall we?" You'll think that is a request but I knew it was a command. I linked my arm with her and winked at Zayne before Savia pulled me inside."Zachary, I hate your sister," I heard Zayne say flatly."That makes two of us," Zach replied, equally as mirthless as Zayne's tone.Savia laughed but uttered no words. She led me inside the house but there was no one there. She took me to the kitchen and through the back door. That's when I walked into Lavende

    Larissa's viewpointI dropped the last bottle of wine in the giant cooler and looked at Lavender one more time. I felt terrible after throwing Jewels' Dad on the ground and giving him a bleeding nose. Luckily, I didn't break it. I apologized profusely and they said it was okay but I still felt guilty, especially after Jewels cried. They didn't say anything negative about my strength but that's just it, they didn't say anything about it making me feel even worse."It's alright, Risa, so stop worrying. Gael has taken countless punches and he survived, so relax," she said without looking at me."I know. I just feel guilty. I thought he'd be ready for anything but now I realize that was stupid. He's not my Dad who's always ready or my brother or Odette—""Larissa, please stop apologizing and take that cooler to the table. I'll be really grateful if Herculesette helped me carry that really heavy object," she looked over her shoulder and winked. I blushed sheepishly. "It's alright, dear. I'

  • It Started With A Kiss   Chapter 63: just calm down and use your head

    Zayne's viewpointLarissa isn't happy.That thought reverberated in my head continuously. Something was wrong with her. She wasn't her usual vibrant self and it worried me.Larissa usually acted more mature and clear-minded around my family, but she wasn't this dullish. And from my observation, she didn't notice how depressing her aura was. Everyone with a good level of observance already knew and the eyes they looked at me with were concerning. I didn't do anything to her, at least, nothing she hasn't forgiven me for. What if she hasn't forgiven me? What if she simply did it to please me? I want Larissa to obey and please me but not to the point of losing herself.Her brilliant spark is one of the many things I love about her.She stared at Aunt Anna chattering merrily with a smile on her face but behind that smile, a thick sadness loomed. Her eyes were dull and her lips were fighting to remain upward. She unconsciously drew circles with her index finger while her other hand played w

  • It Started With A Kiss   Chapter 64: confliction

    Larissa's viewpointThe wind blew roughly against my skin, whistling in my ears and blowing some strands of my hair wildly. The soft music and laughter from below added a nice background tone to the atmosphere.I sat on the roof of Zayne's family mansion, at the edge of the roof with one knee propped to my chest and my elbow resting on it. My hand played with my hair while the other rested on the smooth rooftop, supporting my weight. The leg draping down the edge of the roof felt heavy and prickly due to the time it had spent on air. It was starting to get painful but I couldn't bear to pull my leg in, not when the pain was the only thing keeping my mind from diving in too deep.Zayne's mother's loud laughter drew my attention and I looked down. They looked like ants from up here but I could still make out their faces and tell them apart without seeing their faces. Lavender laughed as her husband spun her in his arms. They were dancing and enjoying the evening along with the other cou

    Larissa's viewpoint"So, let's talk. What's bothering you?" Serene asked, popping one of the drinks open. "And don't lie that you're fine, I can tell you are not. I know that it is none of our business but your mood is kind of weighing down my brother and we hate to see our pumpkin disturbed. Plus, sadness isn't a good color for you. Drink?" She asked, handing me a glass. I took the glass and looked at the blue liquid, running my thumb over the rim.I sighed once again and shrugged. "I have a best friend, well, friends. One of them is a guy and we've been friends since I was tiny. I've seen him as an older brother. I love him like an older brother. We have a bond—""Let's make one thing clear," Savvy cut in sharply, making me lift my gaze from the glass and stare at her instead. She was staring at her glass too, stirring the drink around. "We already know about him so I'm not going to pretend like I don't know who the genesis of my baby's pain is. What's your point here? Is it about t

  • It Started With A Kiss   Epilogue

    Today marks a year and seven months since Larissa went into a coma. The project to fasten her healing remains a failure. There has been no positive result since. So far, the doctors still deem her survival impossible and the medicine to help the impossible become possible is nothing but a failure. The agreed number of experiments I can carry out is getting close. I promised my parents that after the number is three hundred, I will not carry out any more experiments. Even if they are condemned criminals, even if they throw away gangsters from the assassin association and mafia, they are still humans. Or so Mom said. Almost two years isn't enough to heal the wound in my heart, or anyone who truly loved her. I miss her. I miss everything about her. The world has no colors without her. I caught him, the bastard who made this happen. It's a shame he died from the third experiment. I would have loved to put him to more use. Larissa's parents welcomed a new baby last

  • It Started With A Kiss   Chapter 114: pull yourself together

    Zayne's viewpointI tapped my foot on the floor, my hands clasped and pressed to my lips. I silently prayed with my eyes closed for a good result since we didn't have the time or anyone to test it out. It wasn't something dangerous, that we were sure of but anything could happen. It'd been almost nine hours since the operation began. There had been no news from Dad or the doctors. We weren't allowed in there.Savia huffed for the umpteenth time. She had been pacing for four hours without a break. Neither of us could sleep. Serenity slept off thrice and woke up with a scream. She had nightmares. Zyaire slept off along the way, but unlike Serenity, he did not wake or shake, he cried in his sleep. None of us could be bothered to soothe each other's pain."Argh!!!" Savia screamed, ruffling her hair and shaking her head wildly. "This is driving me crazy!""Relax, Savvy," Aunt Rylee said softly. She accompanied us to the hospital along with her husband, Uncle Phineas. We kept Mom's conditio

  • It Started With A Kiss   Chapter 113: reckless decisions (2)

    Larissa's viewpointI looked around the house, walking in slowly while Neo went in to get something. It was strange. He told me it was an apartment and his Grandpa was sending him away but for someone who was leaving, they put a great effort into the interior design of the house. Note that I said house, not apartment. It was undoubtedly a beautiful home. The taupe gray, silver, and cream theme with a bit of brown was lovely, along with the furniture and the styling."I'm back," he announced, drawing my attention to him. He walked to the cream camel back sofa with a bottle of Beaufort a Ambonnay Grand Cru Doux Rose, two white wine glasses, a big plate of Swedish meatballs, and dark chocolate almond barks. He dropped the tray on the table and sat down."Shouldn't you be using champagne glasses for those?" I joined him."I broke them," I picked the bottle first. It was one of my favorite wines. "So how are you doing? Since you got out,""Not good. My grandparents are shipping me off to I

  • It Started With A Kiss   Chapter 112: reckless decisions

    Larissa's viewpointI stood at the airport, listening to my Dad nag about how he'd like to return home and meet his house the same way he left it. It was the day after the wedding. My Dad and Mikayla were officially married. Zayne got me the VIP pass to the hotel I asked him to. I still couldn't shake off the grin on my face from the way my parents reacted. Though it was a gift Zayne spent effort on, it was still from me. Dad made sure to rub that on my face but Mikayla was sincerely grateful. I wish I could exclude him from the honeymoon."And you cannot throw or attend any party in our absence. Odette and Tristan, if I find out you broke anything in another argument again, I'll destroy your souls, use your flesh to make leather, and wear them as boots—""Dad, that's not—""Boots!" He snarled, daring us to correct him again. "Larissa, I promise you, I will hunt you to the end of the earth even in death if you dare redecorate my house," he growled, glaring daggers at me. I gasped. How

    Larissa's viewpoint"Are you hurt?" The expected question. He needed to stop worrying about me. It was sweet of him but also unnecessary. I wasn't like before. If it hurt, I'd let him know."I'm fine, don't worry,""I’m still going to… fuck me," he groaned when my walls clenched hard around him. He fell over, using his hands to hold up his weight from compressing me. "Damn. I'm going to go a little stronger than before. Please don't hesitate to–""Tell you if it hurts or if I can't handle it, yes, I know. Can you move now?""Remember to—""For goodness's sake, I will," I laughed, a bit impatient and lust showing in my tone. "I promise I won't foolishly take more than I can handle so please continue or I'll flip us over and fuck you myself. You know, that was the plan when I wore this underwear. The plan was to tie you up and have my way with you," Zayne chuckled and put strength in his arms, holding back his desire (as always) to destroy my insides recklessly, and the result of that w

    Larissa's viewpoint"I've arrived!" I shouted, kicking Zayne's bedroom door open. He spun the giant white ball chair around, revealing the red interior. He looked at me flatly and I grinned in response. "Zaddy, I'm home!" I shrieked again. Of course, we were at his private house. We agreed to meet there, but he didn't have the large chair the last time I came."That door is worth someone's yearly salary, be careful with it," I nodded, swinging the bags in my hands happily. "You're wearing a coat," he stated."For dramatic reveal," I replied, dropping the bags on the glass table. "And no, I'm not bothered by what my mother said to me. If anything, I feel sorry for myself," he stretched his hands out, gesturing for me to come closer. I planned to go over to him anyway. "I feel pity and disappointment for myself. I allowed the fear of what I might be like if I became anything like her to torment me for years. I feared becoming like her the most but seeing her right now, I'm forced to won

  • It Started With A Kiss   Chapter 109: Henrietta

    Larissa's viewpointI exhaled through my nostrils, rubbing my throbbing forehead. My body felt heavy and in desperate need of a massage or to shut down for three straight days. It's been two weeks since Zayne left school. We barely saw each other. I couldn't be selfish and bother him with my fantasies and loneliness, so I focused on work and my parents' wedding. A lot of things were going on. I'll start from the beginning.I felt bad about what I said to Neo and wanted to make amends but I never got the chance to. Proof of illegal dealings was found in his father's office. I was greatly appalled when the truth behind their success was exposed. Neo's father owned a secret organization for prostitution and slavery. People were illegally smuggled into the country by will or by force and worked as sex workers. There was also a section for children for sick bastards who couldn't enjoy normal sexual relationships with adults. There were a lot of other illegal sexual activity, including rape

    Larissa's viewpointI nervously walked into the house and the moment I did, I felt the dark and gloomy energy inside the house. The energy made a chill run down my spine, making me hug my body tightly. I looked around the house and just then, Zyaire walked into the living room, scratching the scruff of his neck as he yawned. The first thing I noticed was that his hair was a mess and his eyes were red and swollen. Zyaire had been crying."Zyaire," he halted, then slowly raised his eyes to look at me. His eyes looked lifeless. "Hi," I greeted. He looked at me coldly, then quietly continued walking."Zayne won't be able to see you now, he's busy. You can wait in his room or wait here if you wish,""What is he doing?" I asked, walking over to join him on the couch. "He sounded very miserable on the phone– your Mom, how is she?""She's alive for now,"I smacked his shoulder scoldingly. "Don't say it like that. You'll make me nervous,"He chuckled. At least I managed to pull that from him.

  • It Started With A Kiss   Chapter 107: wanna help me get rid of him?

    Starliss' viewpointIf I already didn't have a goal for my future, I would have considered becoming an actress. Masking my emotions, and pretending to be someone that I am not is a huge part of me and I'm greatly skilled at it. I'm not blowing my own horns here, I am proudly stating facts.I watched as Larissa's eyes darkened involuntarily. She was incredibly softhearted when it came to Neo but she was merciless if anyone touched Odette. Anyone being able to hurt Odette and Tristan was the height of her rage. She might not always react with anger, but she always makes the right decision when they are hurt in any way. The moment I saw the dark expression on her face, I couldn't fight back the smile I knew she wouldn't notice.Larissa turned around and walked out. I followed her quietly but stopped at the door, making sure to hide myself but look between the cracks. She knocked on the window of Neo's sports car and tapped her foot impatiently. It was something she did unconsciously when
