Larissa's viewpoint"Point of correction," he leaned down and caught my lips in a kiss. His tongue immediately broke through the barrier of my teeth and twisted with mine. He lowered his hands, cupping my cheeks and deepening the kiss with a moan. He felt like he was high on drugs. It reminded me of the time Odette "accidentally" drank a Spanish fly. It didn't end well.I continued to pump him slowly and it felt like he was growing bigger in my hands. He pulled away, returning his elbows and forearms to my head. "The moment you stepped out of Starliss' car, you had me hooked,"I smirked. "Which part? The ass flashing or the titties display?"He grunted and threw his head back, releasing a loud moan. "Fuck! You drive me fucking insane, sweetness. Do you know how hard it was to keep my hands to myself?" I giggled. He dropped his head and lowered his eyelids sexily. "I never thought I'd join my idiot father and uncles in saying this but sweetness, you'll be the death of me," oh hella yes
Larissa's viewpoint"Morning, love of my life!" I snorted at Tristan's greeting. Yeah right, he can't fool me. He laughed and wrapped his arms around my waist, resting his cheek on my back. For a thirteen-year-old, he sure is short."I hope you enjoyed the new car smell," Tristan slept in my car last night. He wouldn't step out after I drove it in and since I was still having a mental seizure from what happened at Zayne's, I didn't have the energy to deal with him. Dad was already asleep when I returned—thank God."You're driving me to school, right?""Sure, I'll drop you off. Starliss is coming over to drop my things. She couldn't stop by yesterday. She'll be coming with Odette. Don't be mean to her, she's going through a lot," I didn't have to warn him. Tristan isn't stupid. I tapped his hand, quietly telling him to let me go. Tristan obediently slipped away, mostly because his sandwiches were ready. He took the large plates containing them and headed to the breakfast table.I dishe
Larissa's viewpointAh, great. Just fucking great.I wasn't ready to deal with Neo. I was still shaken by my delusions and the fact that he hurt Starliss, again. My heart beats fast against my chest and my palms become sweaty. I couldn't tell why, I just knew I was upset.Neo had his hair cut into a different style and I couldn't help but notice how similar it was to Zayne's. I furrowed my brows puzzledly, then ran my eyes over the length of his body. Neo always looked dashing but for some reason, I couldn't help but feel like he put in extra work to his appearance. He only did that when he was trying to impress a girl.Odette held the door firmly, blocking him from going in and Neo acted oblivious, like he didn't know why she was blocking the way. "Oh, Neo! You're here!" Starliss exclaimed, surprising me with her enthusiasm. I turned around and looked at her puzzledly. She flashed me a toothy smile and brushed past me, heading to the door. Odette released her hand, a puzzled expressi
Zayne's viewpointI poured my focus into the sketch of Larissa I was working on. A sudden idea hit me to use Serenity, Larissa, and Starliss for fairytale art. I wasn't sure if it would turn out well but the idea was storming in my brain. I envisioned Larissa as a fairy. Larissa looks nothing like a fairy so that was the idea. How to turn her into a fairy, an angel, or a mermaid.It was just for fun and distraction.Larissa's finger brushed against my bottom lip, causing a familiar current to travel south. I ignored it and opened my mouth wider. She shoved the fork full of spaghetti into my mouth. For the past few days, she made it her obligation to pack lunch for me and force the food or foods down my throat. She also used me to test the sugary combos she made for dessert, no matter what."Drink," she instructed, pushing the straw against my lips. I slurped a bit of the blue lemonade she made. The first one she made tasted like ink but the second was just right."So you're not coming
Larissa's viewpointThe sound of Mrs. Shawn's painful moan made me hurry my feet. A few other students were standing there and the janitor was trying to pull the door open with a crowbar. "Larissa is here!""Thank God," Janitor Moses said with an exhale of relief. His name isn't Moses. I could never pronounce or remember his complicated name so I just called him Moses."What happened to her?""She slipped and fell,""If she's in that much pain, why didn't you call an ambulance? She's fucking pregnant!""You know we'll lose our jobs if we make that call and the security team is away. I'm not even sure what they are doing," this school is expensive and great and all, but that was then. The moment Olsen's dad took over the previous year, everything changed. He was a little tyrant but he did his tyranny in a way only the employees knew. A few students knew but mostly people who didn't care or didn't have the power to do anything. Maybe it's time I flex my gold card as the soon-to-be daugh
Larissa's viewpoint"You!!!" I looked up at the girl, one of Begonia's minions. What's her name? Emma or Emily. I think. "You ruined everything! It's your fault!" She screamed hysterically, making her voluminous ponytail swish. "If you had just left Begonia's boyfriend alone, she wouldn't have been sad or depressed! She wouldn't have yelled at me!" Okay, what's going on here? I looked around, just trying to get a reality check. So it's not a dream."I hate you! I hate you!" Tears furiously poured down her face. She looked like someone whose fiancé was taken away from her a day before their wedding or on their wedding day. "I hate you so much! Bell threw me away because of you!"I slowly stood up, just as another of the minions rushed inside. "Ella, stop this nonsense right now! You're disgracing Begonia!" She hollered angrily. "Begonia warned us not to act on our own but you did, and failed on top of it!" Yeah, is this some kind of twisted soap opera or upside-down Chinese drama? I co
Larissa's viewpoint"It's official, I'm gay!" I exclaimed, throwing my hands up. Zayne looked at me as if I'd lost a couple of more screws and then shook his head, a frivolous smile on his face. Oh, my gorgeous boyfriend. What a hottie!"The wheel in your head is spinning randomly again,""I'm high on your love, baby!" I sang. He smiled wider and I just knew the next thing he would say would be flirty so I quickly covered his mouth. "Shut up," he laughed into my palms, his eyes curving into a half-moon with his smile. So cute. I retracted my hands and sat back in my seat.Zayne was driving my car. He told me he didn't come with his car because his brother threatened to annihilate him if he went twenty feet close to it. According to Zayne, Zachary is just like their father and obsessed with gadgets, ripping things apart and reconstructing them into a better version. Rominic and Zachary had a ritual of ripping their cars apart and reconstructing them or giving them upgrades anytime they
Larissa's viewpointHmm. I think I dug a grave for myself. Not only did I dig my own grave, I built a tombstone, went into the ground, and neatly laid my hands on my chest. All that remains is for Zayne to pour in the sand.I know I said that nonchalantly but as Zayne hastily pulled me to my car, nervousness and embarrassment pushed through my unflappability and a bit of fear dwelled in. The determination on Zayne's face is the same he puts up when he sees something considered impossible or difficult to achieve and plans to go unrest until he does otherwise. In other words, backing out isn't an option.Wait, didn't he say I can ask him anything I want?"Um, Zayne, wait a minute," he turned his head and looked at me and the moment his eyes fell on me, a bastard breeze blew against his face, sweeping his hair aside and establishing an allure that could not be resisted. That charm coupled with the unyielding lust in his eyes made me keep my mouth shut."Yes?" He asked after a minute of i
