"Celine, you wouldn't believe it. You wouldn't believe what my father wants me to do, you wouldn't believe who the hell he wants me to marry Celine. I'm as good as a freaking dead corpse, father wants me send me to an early grave already ". Melissa yelled using her hands to caress her body rubbing it as if she had caught a cold.

" A fucking Edward McDonald's...the almighty rich spoilt brat out there without a sense of care or morality"

"Seriously? Melissa you being serious right now? I mean how could he do that to do when he doesn't even know who the hell that fucking bastard is. Girl what are you planning on doing now ". Celine answered with a frightful and shocked feeling. Not only that, she felt uneasy and scared for her best friend as she clearly knew what Melissa would be in for if she marries the so called bastard as she claims it a name for him.

Celine walked towards where Melissa was seated and rubbed her hair lightly making Melissa rest her forehead at the button side of her belly." Be strong girlfriend, everything's gonna be handled and I promise you won't get married to a damn icily bastard". Melissa slowly raised her head and fixed her gaze on Celine." I really hope so Celine". She said in between her tears and swiped it off her face seconds later.

From the extremely long silver tiled floor which had a long red carpet all the way towards the narrow path to his room, Edward walked with his right hand gripping his neck tie from further choking him bit by bit while his long brown shoe echoed in the passageway.

He forcefully opened his door and threw his tie on the floor roughly without a sense of order or arrangement. Before he was done unbuttoning his blue shirt, he heard a light knock on his door making him turn to look around. " Come in", He said after the knock came for the second time.

His mother walked in, wearing an extremely long yellow gown which had a large opening around the cleavage side exposing it widely. She smiled while standing just a few steps away from the door.

Edward sighed and turned back to continue with his shirt and when he was done he pulled it off. " Old witch, what is it again?, He asked, his voice as cold as ice and his eyes bore no emotions in them.

It wasn't even suprising that his mother didn't even put on a worried, shocked or angry face and expression after hearing such words and names. Infact, she smiled when he called her that and started towards him in a calm manner.

" Son, my boy how are you doing?"Her voice sounded calm and curious at the same time. The look in her eyes displayed extreme love and the will to protect, the strong will of power.

Edward clenched his fist so hard that his knuckles were beginning to turn white, but he still didn't turn around to look at her. The fact that she always had that stupid smile on all the time got him so angry especially after what she did that night.

" Just tell me what is it you want or you get the hell outta here". Edward continued trying to ignore the fact that he knew exactly why she came to see him.

" I heard what happened son, tell me did you...."

" Just get the hell outta my room witch, whatever I do isn't any of your business. Don't you ever let me repeat myself in telling you to butt off my business" He yelled using his hands to demonstrate the angry expression on his face.

Of course he knew she wasn't gonna listen to him as it wasn't even the first time or the second time.

" I took care of that lady, you don't need to be bother about her and focus on keeping a good reputation at least".

Hearing such statement from her, Edward angrily turned around, his eyes burning with rage and the vain on his forehead visible to be seen due to his anger.

" Did you have to kill her, it was just an ordinary video, a video I took care of ". He yelled at the top of his voice breathing so loud as he immediately became short of words for a bit.

" How is it you enjoy killing people, is it something so easy for you to do?"He lifted his hands and used it to rub his face before taking in a deep breath.

" Just like you enjoyed killing her too, that night I saw everything, everything you did and I still don't know why I remained quiet till now but believe me, this is just the beginning for both of us."His voice sounded cold and strong but still that didn't startle his mother.

She stood still strong, willing, and adamant without shaking not even a little bit and when he was done talking, she took his hands and held it.

" Eddy, I am still your mother and I want the best for you. I won't ever stop you from sleeping around with as many lady you want but if you can't take care of them properly then I'll have to butt into your business..... Get married and I promise, I'll leave you alone and never kill anyone because of you ever again " Her voice sounded so superior.

" What if she had gotten away, then everything would have been over Eddy, what you, I and your father worked for would have been over. I had no other choice son".

" Married? What if I refuse?" Edward asked trying to sound smart and tricky but his mother chuckled instead.

" Your half brother's in town now Eddy, and I'm sure you wouldn't wanna loose your company to him. This isn't for me Eddy,but it's for you". Even though he wasn't willing to listen to her, he still didn't want to lose his company to his half brother.

Edward smiled and forcefully released his hands from his mother's grip." Fine, I don't need to find one myself because you and father already did right?" Edward asked with a great knowledge of who exactly his parents were.

" Of course baby, we did. And trust me she's your taste. The perfect lady for you and of the same status with you. You would love her when you lay your eyes on her". His mother replied back carving a smile on her lips.

" Fucking stay out of my business after this, I don't want you monitoring my every movement ever again after this". He concluded with a stern warning and picked up a towel.

" If you would excuse me"He said giving her a disgusting look to get the hell outta his room.

" Thank you son" This time her voice sounded warm but that didn't change anything to Edward as he continued looking at her till she turned around and opened the door to walk out.

    Edward shifted his gaze to his mom and thereafter took a seat beside Melissa making her curious as to why he suddenly acted like he didn't know her. But when she looked at his fist, she saw that he had tightened it roughly and his veins were visible both on his hands and forehead." son, shouldn't you apologize for gracing your presence this late" He heard his mom's voice and disclosed his tightened fist." My sincere apology, Do accept it" Edward spat in utmost disgust making Melissa scoffs silently while rolling her eyes." When the devil lies" She uttered within the confine of her mind and snatched a fork from the table, settling for a bite of what laid before her. Down to her throat food went. It felt disgusting, though the meal had a unique taste, melissa could tell it only felt awful because the devil himself kept smiling and leaning closer to her."

Her eyes repeatedly kept blinking without stopping her tears from falling as it made it fall freely to it's satisfaction. Her life was becoming a real mess, and she blamed it all on her father."An heir, a stupid heir?" Melissa questioned herself, recollecting the stupid words of her father to bear an heir for Edward. Only then would she be regarded and treated like a queen she is by his family.Melissa took in a deep breath and shifted her gaze to look at the bartender waiting to get her order. He had stood beside her with his white apron looking at her while she was lost in her thoughts."Don't just stand there and look at me, do I look amusing to you?" Her anger made her question him.

    Melissa groaned while shifting uncomfortably as her hands moved to her head. Her head felt really heavy and it ached real bad. She opened her eyes but shut them back quickly as the bright lights flashed through her eyes. Slowly, she opened her eyes until it adjusted to the lights. She looked around frantically and then she noticed she was in a different room. One she couldn't recognize and she frowned. Her gaze landed a pair of cold eyes which was void of any emotions and it was gazing.. no, glaring hard at her. Even if she had severe memory loss, she won't ever forget the owner of those eyes. She needs no one to tell her that she's in his room. She sat up and glared back at him. "You bàstàrd!!" She cursed through gritted teeth. "How dare you bring me to your room?" She questioned.He didn't respond."Fúçking answer me!" She growled loudly while balling her fists."Don't tell me you're so light headed that you forgot what you did last night" Edward asked in a calm but harsh

    Melissa woke up due to the sound of someone laughing. At first, she tried to ignore it but it just keeps getting louder. She sat upright and rubbed her eyes then released a long and tiring yawn. She reached for her cellphone and checked the time. Her eyes widened when she saw it was 4:33pm. How the heck did she sleep for such a long period of time?. She also noticed she had 11 missed calls from Celine. Was she really sleeping so deep that she didn't hear her calling? She quickly redialed Celine's number and she picked up at first ring. "What the heck girl, you had me worried sick!" Celine scolded through the phone. "Am sorry.. I was just taking a nap and I didn't hear it ring" Melissa rendered an apology. She heard Celine release a long sigh of relief."Thank goodness. I thought something bad might have happened to you" Celine said."Something like what?" Melissa asked."Well,.. Something like...

    Andrei and Melissa had a good time together in each other's arms. Time went swiftly as they didn't get to know they were so immersed in sleep.

She smiled so comfortably and turned around properly, her elbow on her cheeks pressed on the pillow as she stares at him, the way he positions in his deep sleep, how his eyebrows were looking so silky like that of a baby, his adorable slim-line nose and most adorable part where she was so carried away in her stare was his hair.. black and well trimmed. Melly couldn't resist his looks, she was absolutely lust in her stare and love fantasies arising up her brain.
