"This world is full of miseries, but you are an amazing piece of craft. So amazing. that you can create a world full of love for yourself. If not. maybe You can find someone who can love you in that world full of miseries. Who can create moments of happiness for you? Because Love is always patient. It is always Kind." [Ifveen]
........
The deep voice of Christian made her body shudder in goosebumps as she tried to jump out of his arms.
"Honey. Just stay for two minutes more."
Glancing at the wall clock, she saw ten minutes had passed away since the time he had hugged her. Yet he wasn't allowing her to leave his arms. She clutched her pink shirt to avoid what sensations His bare skin was causing her as his hand was caressing her back bravely.
"What are you doing Mind.? Riley said but was cut short when he took his arm back and left her with a kiss on her forehead.
"it's enough you can go now, honey."
She loo
"People will come and go in life. You will remember some by their looks and some by how they made you feel. Riley for him was never a look, She was always a feeling for Christian. A feeling so beautiful, so stronger that he wanted to show his scars, his fears, his mistakes his ugliness, his real side to her."........"I love the way your small hand fits in mine. Honey." Christian said watching her.Riley blushed at that. Seeing his brown orbs full of joy. She tried to break the eye contact, with him again. When he placed a hand on her hair."Eh. What are you doing Mindy?""You have something in your hair, umm I am going to take it out.""What is it?"Riley raised her hand to check what was on her hair. But, he held her hand. Bringing it down to her lap."It's a flower. Let me help you."Controlling her heartbeat Riley managed to nod and started watching what was going on around them. The area around them w
"Riley's Parents raised a very respectful lady with a very bad attitude problem, that has the biggest heart."....For a few minutes, Riley enjoyed being in his arms. Getting kissed the life out of her.However, they were interrupted when a ball hit her back. Two children were playing with a ball, but when Rose saw a dog walking towards her, she forgot to hit the ball and ran to the other side. As a result, Little Ron who had thrown it saw as the ball accidentally collided with the backside of a woman who was in the arms of a man.Riley was a little hurt by the impact, She opened her eyes observing her surroundings. Her cheeks blushed red as she saw a 5-year-old boy and a little girl with him was gaping at them. They looked cute.Immediately, her mind flashed back to all those times when she and Stuart used to play together with a ball. There were so many beautiful memories of her childhood. Cautiously she tri
"There will be a time in your life when you want to find something with everything you have but you still won't be able to find it. And then you will find it in the most impossible way possible." [Stuart]....."Really? Let me see first." Stuart asked as he moved towards the gate to take a peek at the woman his little Ron was talking about."Oh. Do you want to meet her uncle?""Yeah. I would like to say sorry on your behalf."Coming in front of Stuart Ron opened his arms wide stopping him. "Oh. Don't worry about it. I have already said sorry to her. And she has forgiven me.""Oh wow. My pretty boy is growing up."Ron huffed and puffed as he gazed at Stuart trying to show him that he didn't like what he said."Don't call me Pretty uncle. I'm Handsome."Ruffling his hair, Stuart smiled bending down to his level."Okay, Big boy. Let's go. Your Dad is waiting for you."Trying to fix his hair again, Ron smiled a
"Your past is not a threat, it's what brought you to me." [Christian Evercast]The sky seemed to be clear after pouring the whole night. Finally, the rays of the sun came through the window of their bedroom directly glittering Christian's face. Waking him up from the sleepiness. He looked back from the bed reading time aloud. 8:00 am.The last two months had been like a dream for him. It felt like they were over even before the time. two months ago since he had met his father-in-law. After he had laughed his ass off on Christian's destiny and even sitting on his couch. Of course, he didn't felt any better Stephen had said, "Karma is a bitch." Without the knowledge of the man he was laughing at was his dear daughter's husband.After that, His behavior had changed drastically towards him he had tried to pressurize him to work in his company after getting healed. But he had outrightly refused him with the same excuse of self-respect. Honestly, h
"While the other man wanted her attention, He wanted her heart. It happens when you fall in love. You find yourself reclining towards them even when they practically hate you. You want to make wonderful memories with them. You try to adjust with them in everything they put you through. Sometimes feeling you can do it. Make a full-proof plan and apply it. Yet their feelings decide your future/your hurt." [Christian]......."Sir the next meeting is in ten minutes." The afternoon of the same day Cynthia told him about his schedule while standing near his desk. Having spent almost an hour with Riley he had decided to come to the office to handle the work. After being done with the breakfast Riley had left for her office kissing his cheek. It had become a habit of her now. And he liked it.After getting done with the information on how everything was behind his back. Cynthia was informing him about his meeting with the CEO of another company that had just mo
"It's your life, you have to live it. And when you will live it for yourself it will create magic for you. When you live for yourself, Your experiences will guide you and make you upgraded. So love it and live it with gratitude. Withstand the storm, but without regrets."[Ifveen].........Though it would irk Stuart to admit, But Christian Evercast had displayed a spectacular and distinguished aptitude in the line of business. He was an absolute self-made man. He had proven his worth even exceeding his family name. And he has risen higher than his father as the President of the shining group in the last two years. So it was fine for him to make us wait. Though he did hope to be accepted by him......[Next Day]"Sir here is the information of Mr. William you asked for. His full name is Stuart William. He had been living in Brooklyn with his family. Also, there is no indication of his presence in Newyork city in the last
"Sometimes it's not about what you are going through. It's about who steps into your life to help you at the exact timing. Though sometimes attraction creates connections but the best connection transcends actions. It doesn't matter how many people left you to cry, what matters are the ones who gifted you their presence in your darkest night."[Christian]His mind was a mess. Putting all the pressure on his hand he held her hand tightly as the goons started surrounding them.The whole matter of his kidnapping had turned out more messed up than he could ever imagine. Those men were after him, dead set to kill him in the worst way possible.If there was anything that those men were capable of doing. It was probably torturing people and he was the live example of enduring it. They were ruthless and used dirty tricks. And right now they were ordered to kill him.Seeing the girl prot
"There is only one life, but in that one life, we have to withstand so many storms that they might devastate us. But in each storm, you will find an opportunity to become strong." [Author]"Darkness is the only way to understand the worth of light. And that was what Christian gets to know in the moment of desperation and pain that nobody else could love him more than she could. But the most important thing you should know about him was he would never let her go. At any cost."[Christian]...........That was all he remembers of the day. When he woke up again it was after a month of the kidnapping in a hospital. His body was attached to various wires and burnt. His sister, Emma sitting near the couch of his bed in a VIP room of the hospital. She was teary-eyed when she saw him regaining consciousness. Why wouldn't she, her only family was lying on a deathbed? She did not know how to express her
Christian's eyes widened in shock, his cut cheek throbbing with every heartbeat. The gash in his thigh, a souvenir from Andy's goons' earlier attack, stung as he spoke."Andy, how could you?" Christian's voice reverberated off the concrete walls.Andy's laughter sent chills down Christian's spine, amplified by the eerie silence."You never suspected, did you?" Andy's words dripped with malice.Christian's torn shirt hung in tatters, revealing bruises and scrapes. A glass shard protruded from his thigh, blood pooling around it.The only light came from a flickering overhead bulb, casting ominous shadows on the walls. Cobwebs clung to the steel beams, and dusty crates lined the perimeter. The air reeked of decay and neglect.Christian struggled to comprehend. "We were friends, brothers. Why?"Andy's expression twisted, his eyes gleaming with malevolence. "Because your Father destroyed my father. Because I hate you. I hate you to the core. I created the perfect lie, Christian. Athanasia
"The best decision to cater life is to accept whatever is happening. And move forward."[Christian]'I have most of the times preferred to decide emotionally, but most of the time it has backfired on me. So this time I will use my brain.' Christian thought inwardly, his hands were shaking. He took a deep breath to calm himself, and observed his surroundings. The place he was called to, looked like an abandoned building, on the outskirts of the city. There doesn't seem to be a single soul in the vicinity. "I am here." he yelled, and his words echoed in the area. Just when he thought there was no presence there. Around ten men surrounded him coming from all sides. One of them punched him in the jaw and he fell down on the ground with a groan. His eyes blackened for a few minutes before he could stand up, he was kicked by another guy in the gut. They hit him until he bled. Christian's shirt was torn, his cheek and head had a severe cut which was bleeding up to his eyes.Perhaps seeing h
Life is beautiful, live with people you love, who love you."[Riley Brown]Riley had never felt the kind of dread she was feeling in the darkness. Her body was shaking but even then she couldn't scream. When she woke up she found her arms and legs bound to a chair with a gag in her mouth. Other than that, she was unable to see anything. Wherever she was, it was too dark to even comprehend the surroundings of the room. Suddenly, the door opened with a creak, and light coming from outside blinded her for a few minutes. With that, it must have been more than 12 hours since she was kidnapped. Her heartbeat pounded in her ears as she wondered who the person would be. She quickly takes in her surroundings. The wall facing her chair was musty old and the paint was coming off. Dark-colored boxes were scattered on the floor. There were some posters on the wall, but she didn't linger on them. Instead, her gaze landed on the man who was now standing in front of her. She noticed he was wearing a
"Embrace your fear and be honest with people you want to live forever." [Christian Evercast]"Hie." This time Christian doesn't pretend to not see her. Instead, he walks toward her and forwards her hand for a handshake. Riley is not entirely aware of what exactly happened, stay still. She doesn't take his hand, so he takes it back awkwardly."I am not going back Christian," Riley says, pinching her arm in annoyance."So your trip here is pointless."Each time she had to remind herself of the fact that his pitiful appearance was just a sparse way to fool her. Like he did all the time."Please don't run away from me, Riley. I am not here to take you back. Not unless you go with me willingly." He says. His eyes were hollow."Yeah, like always. Willingness. Oh, you mean the conspiring ways that will force me to go with you willingly." Riley says sarcastically. Her face was like a dark cloud and her courage was like a queen's, but her tone was still normal, perhaps to not attract attention
"It's not the goodbyes that hurt,It's the love remaining in you that hurts!"[Christian]*******Riley felt Her chest heavy with a feeling of stress and confusion. She changed into her normal clothes and asked for leave from the manager present. The manager argued with her, but her friend Roma immediately came to her aid. She didn't ask Riley why she wanted to leave in such a hurry, she just offered to work in her place. The manager readily agreed and Riley walked outside.When Riley finally left the restaurant, she could’ve sworn Christian looked right at her - he was observing her, without saying anything at all, and even though she had supposed he would come running behind her he didn't. In some ways, she found it odd. It was hard to believe that he would let her be.She steps onto her balcony and the eerie silence gnaws its teeth in Riley's cheekbones. The smell of someone frying noodles is so faint in the air, that she wonders if someone is cooking near her.Her hand fiddles with
"I never saw anyone as I saw you,Even if the flowers dried up " [Christian]*******"Goodbye," Riley said, and the single word spilled out of her like pouring waterfalls after drought, like spools of ribbon unraveled after years of being held taut;"I want to be happy." Her voice echoed back to her into the dry, dim land, and as her breathing slowed she could feel the world slow with it. She squinted blind eyes and shifted tired feet, to move towards the chopper her fingers felt the invisible strings of the wedding ring that tethered her to Christian's world, she removed it and felt as if it disappeared into the darkness, she hoped that this decision would lead to something better:Stupid and silly. Christian murmurs to himself as he looks around her office. He came to her office the minute his staff told him. Riley had left for her office early in the morning. His head was still pounding with the hangover since he didn't even eat anything for breakfast, which also made his reactions
"Loving someone is hard. But making them believe in your love is the hardest." [Christian]*******When Riley left her cabin, to leave for home. She noticed the office was buzzing with excitement. She lifted her feet to look and found people crowding the gate. That's when she heard one of her colleagues say, "Dude that guy is so handsome, how lucky must be the woman he is here for. Ah and with such beautiful flowers. Ah, I am melting!"Riley walked fast towards the gate immediately. For some reason, she had a hunch. And it proved to be true. Making her way, in between people she walked towards him."Christian what are you doing here?" She questioned, awkwardly."Oh, I am here for you honey, to take you home of course." He said so naturally that for a moment Riley didn't respond."Ah, and these are for you." He said as he handed her the flowers she liked."Why are you giving this to me?" She was confused by his sudden behavior."Well, I wanted to make you happy so I brought these.""Se
"If you are upset with me, talk to me.Don't separate me from yourself. Why are you watching me from afar alone, it's better if you fight with me." [Christian]Riley came out of her room late. It was almost 10 am and she assumed Christian by now would have left for his office. She didn't want to meet him. Neither did she want him to spot any difference in her face even though she had covered her face with thick makeup to reduce the puffiness of her eyes. As she descended the stairs and walked toward the kitchen she found A man cooking something. When his whole back came into view, she knew who the man was, it was her husband.Christian turned around and smiled at her. "Look Honey, I learned to make your favorite Chinese food yesterday. Come and taste. I think I made it better than those restaurants you love." Riley stood motionless looking at him, like looking at a stranger. Even then she seemed beautiful to him, so seductive, so different from normal people, that he could not compre
"Hope courses through our veins, only for us to live." [Christian]Riley swallowed hard and looked at the man sitting opposite her."So, That Bastard has tricked you into his games once again!" Stuart banged the table in anger."Yes." Riley sighed softly and slumped down on the chair. After Riley left his office building she found Stuart calling her to inform her he was back in the town. Not knowing where to go she invited him to a nearby restaurant. As the great friend that he was! He immediately agreed to meet her. So here they were, sitting in the restaurants nearest to Christian's office. she just explained the whole ordeal to Stuart who now had brought the attention of others to themselves by his abrupt action."Stuart, we are in a public place," Riley said as she threw an apologetic look at other customers."Sorry." He said as he ruffled his back hair. A habit he had when he was awkward."It's okay," Riley responded, taking a sip of coffee and placing it back on the table."How
