That morning, I remembered waking up with a throbbing headache, sore legs and arms and exactly, that cold deadly voice. No further guessing was needed for me to be able to tell who it was. The only person who would have the nerve to use that tone around this house couldn't be anyone else apart from him.
"Are you seriously blaming it all on me right now?!" Another voice yelled and I immediately recognized it to be Giovanna's.
Slowly, I sat up from my bed and began to take a look around. The familiar sight of my organized bedroom and a worried look on Pyper's face were the first two things that came to my view.

Seven hours and fifty minutes in total was how long it take for us to arrive in Paris. As soon as we got out of the private jet, we swarmed by a group of security guards and more than a dozen of French policemen.We didn't even need to get inside the airport and everything was already done for us. All that we needed to do was to hop in the back of a white Rolls-Royce and Liam directed him that we were ready to go. Through the transparent glass wall of the airport, overlooking the view of the runway, I could see people starting to take notice and some of them were openly holding up their phones to record us. I was pretty sure all the passengers inside the airport thought we were criminals.Powerful rich ass criminals.Among many other things, like the beautiful view of Paris outsi

The world was spinning. Either that or my eyeballs were. My hear felt like an earthquake and every part of my body felt like it was floating in cloud nine. Everything felt good. I was surrounded by bright lights and rainbow. My brain was piping by the rich, woody smell balanced with a soft hint of vanilla.Now, that smell likehome."Are you ready to see your room?" A pair of strong hand lightly squeezed me and I looked up to see his face.So handsome.And, not to mention, felt too warm for my own good.My eyebrows furrowed, "M-my room?"Then suddenly we stopped walking and I looked up to see a big white door, above it was writtenLondonin gold letter.

Waking up to the view of the Eiffel Tower outside our balcony and Paris skyline, a part of me still felt like I was dreaming. It all was too good to be true. I snuggled closer to the pillows, stretched my legs under the covers, and immediately, my eyes squeezed shut. I chew on my bottom lip, biting it down as I tried to ease the painful ache in between my legs."...I know. I am working on it." My eyebrows fell into a tight knot as I heard a steady voice spoke. That voice I often heard. I was able to recognize it without needing to roll over as I was lying on my stomach. I knew it was him, "You just have to give me more time."To say I was curious, maybe. But I was rather confused and hurt by the fact that I wake up to an empty bed and him talking on his phone to only God knows who. What if it was his lady. The one from back at home, cal

There was a part of me wishing Liam would stop the car once again in the middle of the highway and asked me what's the matter but then another part of me was kind of grateful for his ignorant and betrayal.It was hard enough already trying to wrap my mind around the fact that he and I slept together last night then spent the next few hours right after I wake up to an empty bed, thinking more of us. I didn't mean to get so possessive so quickly but the needs to have him all to myself was slowly fading away the minute I realized what a tough job it was to keep him satisfied.Liam didn't look at all like the type that could ever be satisfied so having a real long term relationship with him felt in untouchable. Surely, it did feel great knowing that I was his but it would have felt a thousand time better know that he was mine too.

When I forced my heavy eyelids open, a faint smile pushing its way to my face. I snuggled my head closer into the warmth and felt a hard body shifted underneath me. I could hear his heart beating in steady beneath my ear and his chest raising up and down as he breathed softly."How long have I been asleep?" I asked with my drowsy voice and a soft moan escaped my lips when his warm palm gently massaged my lower back.It was a little sore but to compare the feeling during our fun times, the soreness was more than worth it."Only about a few hours." Liam answered. Then, he carefully sat up and tightened his arms around my body. Pulling my naked chest closer to his, "Are you hungry?" He asked."I can eat." I gave a small shrug cutely and

It had been almost three weeks.Two full weeks and a few more days we had spent in Paris. Technically, we were supposed to leave since the last Monday but something came up and Liam had to stay. I, on the other hand didn't want to sit all by myself on a seven hours flight and went home to be alone for some more so I decided why not stayed a couple of days more to keep Liam's company.Though it didn't seem like he needed any basing on his hectic work schedule, I preferred being in the same country and fell asleep in his arms every night rather than staying in New York and waited every day for his call.It had became a routine now where in the morning, Liam would get up very early and sometimes, if I wasn't too tired and sleepy, we would have the first meal of the day together. Then, he

"Liam?""Liam...?""Liam...?!"I remembered waking up that morning to an empty bed. Nothing but quietness surrounding me and the empty mattress on his side. Liam wasgone. He had disappeared without a trace and not even a small note was left for me on the nightstand.I started to panic. I quickly got out of bed and started searching everywhere. Everywhere he could go, anywhere that was within a walking distance from our room. I went out and stood in the middle of the empty hallway. I looked around and not a single person could be spotted."Mrs. Luciano?"Turning around, when my eyes met with Travis, I heaved a big brea

Stepping inside Liam's bedroom, my eyes gawked at the sight before me. Everything looked out of place. Almost, unfamiliar. It would definitely take me some time to get use to seeing my stuffs in his room. But as of now, I had much more important things to worry about.I sat down on the sofa at the foot of the bed and took out my phone from my pocket. I switched it on and waited for the lock screen to come on display. When it did, my jaw dropped in complete surprise.42 missed calls75 unread text messagesMy notification history showed. I rubbed my eye with the back of my hand just to make sure I saw the number right and the next thing I did was quickly dialing Mama's number then pre

What even is the definition of friends?I was asking myself that while we were on our way back home from the hospital. After almost two weeks of complete isolation from society and being in close contact with doctors and nurses every day, I was finally set free. Not entirely though. The doctor had ordered complete bed rest for the next few days for me, or until our family doctor viewed I was healthy enough to get back out there again. She said I should always be in bed, even while I was having a meal.The fact that I couldn't move a lot, let alone go places had somehow ended up bringing me closer to Liam than we had ever been. For the last few days, I was staying at the hospital, he was with me. He slept over. We ate together. We watched T.V. together and he would rub my back or feet until I fell asleep every night a

Like music to my ears, his heartbeat softly echoed off the walls in perfect harmonies. His eyes were closed, face looking serene as ever while his tiny body floated endlessly in my womb."Perfectly healthy, Mrs. Luciano." The doctor said as she pointed with her finger towards the monitor of the ultrasound machine.My chest puffed, proudly. Bobbing my head in pure satisfaction, I flashed her a warm smile back.He's beautiful.Gorgeous.In a way that no word in a vocabulary could narrate. By just witnessing his existence through the monitoring screen, the overwhelming love I felt towards him was truly priceless."Is everything alright, Mrs. Luciano?"

The next morning I wake up feeling fresh. Last night. Oh, last night. I literally had the best time of my life. So much food came in and out of my room nonstop upon his request. We were watching Masterchef on netflix and every time I mentioned about how delicious and tasty those foods they were cooking look, Liam sent someone out, looking for the exact same dish for me in all the restaurants around town. We ubereat-ed too. Like a lot. I felt almost like a princess. It was so much more fun watching a cooking show and being able to taste all the foods similar to what they were making rather than just sitting there and starved yourself to death at midnight.I was stuffing my face with a bowl of arugula and shrimp salad when the door suddenly burst open."Good mor- What the hell is going on in here?!"

[LONDON P.O.V.]"You can have any girls in this world. Get with them. Play with them. Break their hearts. I don't care. But her. She is mybest friend."It was the next day in the morning. Early in the morning. How did I know? I hadn't even opened my eyes yet but I could feel a warm bright sunlight shining through the window, heathing up my skin.For the second time, in a subdued voice, almost a whisper, the person hissed."Why does it have to be her?"I did not need to open my eyes to guess who she was. I recognized her voice, possibly within the first two seconds I heard it."Trust

[THIRD PERSON P.O.V.]Like a thunder, he entered the room, seizing every breath and attentions to be turned directly in his way as they should.Six men seated across the long table in Yusuf Luciano's office glanced up in awe. Their eyes locked on their one and onlybossin unison,"I need a word with you...inprivate."Yusuf's pulse skittered. He watched unbelievably as every one of his minion co-workers stumbled out of his office as per his son's request. They knew better than to define him. Even Yusuf himself was getting more and more intimidated by Liam these days."Son."

I am sorry.His soft half-broken apology rung in my ears. It had been over fifteen minutes now since we last said anything to each other before the doctor came in, disrupting our conversation by requesting a moment in private with Liam.I wasn't sure as to whether or not I should be thankful for him for saving my butt from what could have been a very awkward encounter, or should I get mad at him for interrupting such a potentially heartfelt moment between the two of us. Anyways, my heart ached for the poor man.An expression of pure horror gripped his face, yet his gestures remained stoic and professional. I watched carefully as Doctor Gideon continued to express his concerns over my case with Liam who in return, was giving him his full attention. His eyebrows d

Would you do it?If your best friend asked you for a favor, would you do it?I guessed the answers could be varied and by varying, I mean it had to do with lots of things. Lots of facts. The task they asked you to accomplish. The situation you both were in, and the most importantly who that person was.When Luke asked me for a favor, I couldn't help but say yes to him. Did I regret it? It was still too fast to tell. But given the situation I was in, I couldn't afford losing another person in my life who actually gave aneffabout me.With Luke in the picture, I definitely felt much better and safer now.

All I heard was a strange sound. An odd static noise followed by tiny beeps as myself was slowly coming back. My eyes felt abnormally heavy, but not too heavy that it would be impossible to lift them open. My body jolted like it was awakened from death, raising from out of the tomb in which it had been buried. I groaned in pain, feeling my stiff muscles and tendons stretched underneath the thin covers. My chest rose on heavy, rasping breaths and I opened my eyes to an unnervingly white, clean ceiling above me.So calm. So peaceful. Airy and neat. It was then when I was vaguely aware that I was lying on a hospital bed and likewise, the tears started to fall again."Thank God." I heard a strong, steady voice mumbling from beside me then a comforting pair of arms wrapped themselves around my trembling body.

There was a strange feeling erupting in my guts. Like suddenly, my stomach fell into a knot and my chest clenched tight. I couldn't begin to explain how weird every organs felt inside my body. I just knew everything at the moment felt wrong. I couldn't move, nor speak. The only thing I could do and had been doing for the past several seconds was staring straight into his expressionless face.As if what happened tonight wasn't delusional enough already, standing in front of me, in the flesh, alive and breathing was Xavier.Yes. The same Xavier whom I once mistook as my friend, and spent a great amount of time hanging around without knowing every words that came off of his mouth was based on a lie.One big fat filthy lie.
