|And suddenly life wasn't about living. It was about surviving|
May brought out the first aid kit and crouched down before Liam. She looked at the whimpering boy and tears hit the brim of her eyes but she tried her hardest to hold it back.
Liam sat on the couch with his fists clenched. The left side of his face was swollen and unrecognizable. He had a black eye and a broken nose. His jaw was severely bruised and blood covered his lips and teeth.
He wanted to rip Andreas apart for taking his friend. Though Andreas had disabled him by his constant and brutal punches, his ears were still were much able. He heard Annalise’s cries and whimpers of pain. The way he smoothly and efficiently manipulated the terrified girl was beyond him. What made him even more furious was that Andreas had no remorse for what he did.
He began shaking lightly due to rage and May placed her hand on his balled-up fist, making him snap his eyes towards
Annalise tried her best not to cry. She gulped, gulped and gulped. But those traitorous tears betrayed her. Despite her best efforts, they rolled from her eyes, down the bridge of her nose, down her cheek, and finally hitting the pillow, dampening it.She didn’t like it here. She didn’t like Andreas. He was a cruel man. She was unable to look past his horrendous deeds. That kept on playing in her mind again and again like a broken record.She was still in her school uniform. Her white shirt was all crumpled and her shoes still intact. She was feeling rather cold. She so wanted to move and pull the comforter but she didn’t dare move. Andreas just seemed the person who would probably yell at messing the simplest things up, considering he has kidnapped her for calling 911.Her sobs got muffled by the pillow. Holding onto one of the pillows for her dear life, she balled her eyes out. She just wished to be home where she could be in her mother&rsquo
Liam hissed as he dabbed the cotton onto his face.The corner of his bottom lip had been slit open and his nose had been fixed but the bruises and the black eye were prominent.He looked down on the counter, scramming through all the first aid he had dumped on it. Taking an antiseptic ointment, he opens the lid and squeezed a little bit of it on his finger, and applied the gel carefully onto his not-so-healed wounds.His eyes were straight on the mirror as he tended to his wounds. He didn’t care about how he looked, all he wanted was Annalise to be by his side.He still couldn’t forget how much of an animal Andreas was with Annalise.Annalise didn’t deserve such treatment.In fact, she deserved all the happiness. She should be given each and everything for her sweet and selfless nature.And Liam would do anything for it. He would do anything to see her happy and smiling. The smile on her face was worth millions. The
His head tilted slightly towards the left as he closed his eyes momentarily and clenched his jaw while balling his hands into fists.The little teen’s slap was just like an ant sting on his cheek but still, she dared to slap him.He was forcing her to eat the food because he had mixed up sedatives in it. Yes, he wanted her asleep. Some rest before she could bear his wrath. Andreas wasn’t normal and he had made it quite clear with his actions.He knew she had crossed the line and he had to make sure she learns her limits. Learns it good that it has been practically imprinted in her brain and would never forget it.Technically speaking, the national bank wasn’t the first bank that was robbed nor Andreas and his mafia were the only ones who robbed. There have been several robberies and several mafia and non-mafia gangs, who have stolen from the government or any illegal and legal money for that matter. So many people have also previously be
Annalise looked past the man’s shoulder for cold shivers to run down her spine.Andreas who had come to take something he had forgotten was shocked to see his brother and Annalise this close. Not that it mattered who Lise was around, she could be a cheap hooker or whore for all he cared, seeing Elijah in his house and around his prey shot into his bones. The hate he held for his brother was undeniably more.“Brother,” Elijah straightened up and looked at him. A vicious smirk appeared on his face at the sight of Andreas.“How are you?” Elijah spoke, buttoning the front two buttons of his suit jacket.“What the fuck are you doing here?” Andreas wasn’t welcoming or gentle. His words were rude and full of spite.“Tsk, am I not allowed to meet my brother now?” Elijah shrugged his shoulder playfully but that smirk was still plastered on his face.“Get out. Now!” Andreas’
Honey.The taste of sweetness.And so much sugar that it can get you high. So sweet that it can get your brain numb and your senses zapping. Falling somewhere deep and the same moment when it hits you all with full force. A satisfied eye roll and head hang back while a moan escapes your lips.That is exactly what happened when Andreas pressed his lips on Annalise’s pink and soft ones. Digging his nail into the skin of her jaw, Andreas, forced her to wince and part her lips.Slipping his lips between hers, tasting the sweetness. Just like honey.His eyes involuntarily closed as he groaned savoring her lips, moving them against hers. Swiping his tongue against her lips, he parted it slowly and easily slid it in dragging his tongue across the base of her mouth till it was deep inside. Tasting and later devouring her.She was different, soft and so tempting. He hadn’t kissed someone like Lise before. Heck, he wouldn’t even look at someone like her twice but, the more she was around him, t
He stood in the dark alley waiting for someone. Impatiently shifting his weight from one foot to another, he looked into the dark front and constantly kept glancing at his fairly expensive watch as he was late.With his black tailored suit on, hugging his body at all the right places, and giving him that posh look, it was hard to see the face of this man in the dark. His eyes remained on the dark street in front of him. A car was behind him and its headlights were off, camouflaging under the darkness of the sky.Just when he looked down at his shoes, sighing in frustration, someone tapped on his shoulder. As if quick on his instincts, he grabbed the wrist of the man and turned around twisting the wrist and almost throwing a punch his way.“It’s me! It’s me!” The man in front of him lowered himself as he screamed, trying to avoid the punch at all costs.The guy instantly released his wrist on realizing who it was. The suited man ste
Lise just sat by the edge of the window on a small bench by it. Sheila had helped her wash her face some time ago and now she just waited for Sheila to return so that she can come and help her take a bath.She was lost looking at the reddish-yellow sky. The time when the sunset, the skies looked absolutely beautiful. Gorgeous.It was then Lise realized that how beautiful a simple and everyday thing as looking at the sky could be. It was absolutely breathtaking. She had seen many of her classmates put up sky images on social media but she never really bothered, dismissing it as something boring, but it was only now she realized its beauty.A soft click was heard and Lise snapped her head to the door. It was Sheila who entered with a small smile on her face.Lise just stared at her face emotionlessly.Sheila noticed the trail of dried tears on Lise cheek, indicating she had cried not long before. She couldn’t look at the girl like that, it hurt
Her eyes widened in horror as she looked to her right, to where the door was to see a seething Andreas. She began trembling and instantly shot her arms to her breast to cover it under the now, lessening bubbles.But that vanished soon enough, when he saw her naked, under the bubbles.She gasped and tried to move back to hide in the tub as if it would camouflage her, into its nothingness.She looks at him, her breathing heavily as a small whimper bounces off in the bathroom. She scans his form from top to bottom; he was dressed in a grey t-shirt and black jeans. His veiny arms remained clenched by his side and his eyes hardened on her. His hair was tousled and partially damp because of the shower he just had.“Wha…t?” Her words trailed off as she looked down and crossed one of her thighs over the other to hide the wet folds of her pussy under the water. She tightened her arms across her breasts in a failed attempt to hide them.An
Lise's eyes fluttered open and she peered her eyes open to take in the familiar room. It was Liam's room. She got up and moved back till her back rested against the headboard. She looked around at Liam sitting on the armchair in the corner, with his head hung down.As soon as he noticed she was up, he ran towards her and embraced her in a warm hug. Lise was taken aback as she didn't reciprocate and just sat still. Liam parted from her and looked at her and sat down beside her.The thoughts came rushing back to her.Liam excusing to use the men's room.She collided with Andreas.Her freezing.Him smiling at
Anna sat down on the couch and looked at the large wall clock that hung on the wall next to her.She was getting cold feet. Was this the right thing to do? I mean she has been an introvert all her life and now getting out as the sole heir of the German mafia. Was it all too much? She didn't know.Her heart raced with every passing second and blood rushed through her head and she felt it grow heavier.The door was opened and Liam entered. He let himself inside with the help of the spare keys. He had his coat on his arm and he carried a computer. His head hung down and his hair disheveled. He walked in without noticing Lise who was sitting on the couch and as soon as he lift his head up he stopped dead in his tracks.He sucked a deep breath in looking at the gorgeous woman in front of him. Liam, parted his life slightly, one, in shock and two admiring how beautiful his friend looked.His heart fluttered and he couldn't help but gawk at her. She was just perfect in every way possible. He
The sun's rays hit her face as she blinked her eyes. Looking out, she pushed herself up and looked out for a brief second before sliding into her slippers. She took her robe and wore it.Running her hands through her hair, she walked out of her big minimalist room. Sliding down the stairs, she was met with a familiar face."Good morning. Slept well?" She looked at his eyes before forcing a smile on her lips and walking past him and into the common bathroom, where she took a brush out of the holder and wet it under the water, and applied the paste.Post brushing, she put her palms under the water and splashed it on her face. Taking a bottle she squeezed a little soap and applied it on her face. And washed it. Staring into her green eyes, she sighed.
Boom!As there was a bigexplosion, everyone crumbled to the ground.A large puff of black and filthy smoke erupted.A loud scream echoed as another bomb blasted close by and there laid the still body of Kitty."Kitty!"Sheila screamedas she ran toward Kitty’s lifeless body.But before she could even make it there, a loud gunshot boomed and Sheila dropped to her knees.Blood ran down her spine and coated her blue dressas she fell face flat on the ground.It was a massacre.Everywhere people lay dead.“Angel!” A loud and panicked voice boomed as gunshots were fired across. Andreas rushed from one place to another looking for Annalise.His light blue shirt sleeves rolled up to his elbows and blood splattered across his face and shirt. He held a gun in his hand and the top two buttons of his shirt were undone. His hair was messed up and he looked distraught.He was nap
Annalise was cleared and sent back. She had been super quiet about anything that had happened that night. Andreas had tried talking to her multiple times about it but no response.She wanted to meet her mother. She was craving for her mother. No one was able to understand her. May might have been the one that paralyzed her but she was still an amazing mother to her child. And Andreas was trying to get to the bottom of how Anna was paralyzed.Anna was slipping into depression with every passing day. And she couldn’t share her pain with anyone and she knew Andreas would kill her if she asks something.She made no demands. She partially ate whatever was given to her. Kitty and Sheila tried coaxing her to eat more but she didn’t.More than all, the conversation she had with Elijah scared her more. Just before everyone had entered her room in the hospital, Elijah had visited her.“You will live if you keep your mouth shut.&rd
Annalise opened her eyes with a small sigh and Kitty slammed the water cup on the side table and held her hand.“Hey, how are you?”Anna’s eyes were blinded because of the bright lights and Kitty moved to dim them. She alerted the nurses and Ayra came along to check on her.Andreas moved in and looked at Anna who was blinking her eyes and looking at everyone. She was a bit startled to see so many people around her but took a few seconds to realize what was going on.Ayra on finishing her check-up looked at Andreas with a distasteful look but shrugged her shoulders in defeat. She texted her husband and both of them decided to let Andreas know about Anna’s condition.The amount of toxic and harmful drugs that they found in her body was life-threatening. She had been paralyzed for all these years because of these drugs.“We need to talk,” Ayra said coldly and walked past him.Andreas wanted to put a bu
The pastHer laughter echoed and I saw her hair sway.She wore a beautiful red dress and white shoes.She sucked on a popsicle and her tongue was partially blue because of it.It was teeth-chattering cold but seemed like she loved popsicles.She looked gorgeous.Her almond-shaped and grey-colored eyesAnd her pink lips.She was magnificent.In the perfect winter wonderland,He saw the one he could be with.The girl in red.Georgia Withers.Victor Accardi was immediately smitten by the girl in red while taking a stroll in New York’s central park, on a January.Victor had been married for 3 years now and both he and his wife, Teresa were unhappy. Due to the toxic mafia family traditions, they were forced together. Bound as one yet were miles apart.Victor hadn’t looked at his wife the way a man should. He gave her everything she ever wanted but didn’t tou
Andreas just stared at his shoes as Dimitri looked at him but received no answer. “Andreas I need you to speak up. Who is this young woman?”“It was her. She decided to spy on me. She had to die.” Andreas replied coldly and looked up at Dimitri with a certain flare in his eyes. Referring to the other girl, who Dimitri seemingly knew.“No one deserves your cruelty. Neither did she nor does this girl here. What did you do to her?”“Whatever it is, it is between us. I would appreciate it if you do not interfere.” Andreas looked at him and continued. “A beautiful wife and two kids, right? What if I take them away from you?” Andreas said looking at Ayra who was making a note of Anna’s readings.Dimitri knew not to mess with Andreas. He knew better than to get Ayra involved in anything. She had been through the worst of it all. Especially with how close both of them were to lose their child, thei
Kitty looked at the clock as she sat down with the cup of ice chips. Her face was tired and she looked at the emergency room. She sank into her seat as she noticed Andreas approach with one of his arms shoved in his pockets.He looked over through the glass windows and looked back at Kitty. She was sucking on an ice chip but stopped midway.Giving her aside eye, he kept his eyes on the girl in the ER. He was devastated when he found Annalise laying limp and almost dead at the foot of the stairs in his mansion.He didn’t know how to react for a few seconds before he let out a gut-wrenching scream. He along with Kitty brought her to the hospital and she was immediately taken to the ER.She had lost a lot of blood. The doctors had currently been treating her wounds and running tests to check if there were any internal injuries.“Mr. Accardi?” A nurse called. Andreas walked up to her and followed her as she lead him to a doctor'
