But Serene was confused about the management part as in how will she dance and purchase at the same event. So she promised herself that she'll be quick . When she came out from the bathroom , she was shocked to see Eva sitting on her bed and examining her dress.
"Oh God! You scared me Eva. What are you doing here?" She asked trying to calm her breaths.
"Your dress is so pretty Ser. Are you going somewhere? I thought we'll go together! " Eva concluded.
" Where do you plan to go? "Serene asked." Oh my br-, I mean my friend had an exhibition here, so he wanted me to come. And I wanted you to come. " Eva said almost blurting out her secret.Related chapters

The girl in maroon dress and the bun thrashed her hands everywhere in order to catch hold of anything that could save her. The hand that muffled her was big enough to almost cover her face. Tears sprawled in her eyes in ardent desperation to free herself.The man dragged her towards the car as she struggled to get out of the clutches of the brutal being. The scent of the chloroform forced her to give up and she did. Throwing her on the car seat the door was shut and the car sped away. 'She was a tough fish' they thought.************************************Serene walked through the arena when her hand was caught by someone and dragged to a corner. The person

AT THE WAREHOUSE Rose glued her eyes at the door where a silhouette was standing . Loud yells and cries could be heard but her mind was just focusing on the personality who had just broken the door which was now loosely hanging from it's hinges. The man towering over her receded back and started walking towards the man. She saw the slow movement of the shadow man in her direction. Benjamin started walking towards the leader of the Pythons. He had this determination of ending this bastard and his clan today. Till now , his clan was wiped and the godowns were looted. The last string left was this man , Dylan Chris. When he came into lig

Serene was about to pass through the pool area when she saw a figure standing nearby, gazing at the moon. She was about to turn but her treacherous feet made her walk towards the figure. Standing right behind him she contemplated to keep her hand on his shoulder when the person lowered his neck as if accepting defeat and turned around only to be shocked -There behind him stood the same enchantress he encountered at the party , the same girl who kept the courtesy of informing him about his sister. Serene immediately lowered her hand in nervousness and slowly asked -"Umm ... Row... Rowan right???" And looked up to see those brownish grey orbs staring at her and unintentionally gulped.

Serene did what she thought was correct at that moment. She hugged Rowan tightly not even letting air pass through them . The warmth of the hug seeped through Rowan's body and knocked on his heart and for a minute he felt his breath leaving his body. It was something ..... somethingSURREAL. Serene felt herself bold and confident when he was around. She wanted to do all those things that normal teenagers do with no reins of suffocation. ....She wanted to drink, hug , party , dance, kiss , travel , date , make friends and most importantly She wanted to have a taste .... A TASTE OF SIN. With Rowan she felt her heart raging and racing against her chest to meet his companion which she could subtly see in R

"Turn around, I'll help you Zip it down."ZIP...IT...DOWN...Rose was struck to hear what Benjamin had just said. Her mind was processing and brainstorming regarding all the dirty thoughts.'Was she ready to be intimate with this stranger she had just met' .But the pull of desire was so strong that she decided to submit , hence she gently turned around and let Benjamin do his deed . She was scared and anticipating at the same time. She had heard her friends blabbering about their first times. 'HOW WOULD I

After breaking the kiss, Rowan and Serene looked into each other's eyes. All they could see was thirst and vulnerability seeking for warmth . But they just couldn't express the pain. It was the first time in their lives they felt so liberated with no guards holding them back. " I... I think I sh.. ould go back to my room. Do inform me if you... catch any details about Rose. Goo.. d .. Night." Serene said hastily and turned to return back when Rowan's voice interrupted her - "How will I inform you ..... I mean I don't even have your phone number.... or room number. You know what I mean!" He was brimming with nervousness but wasn't able to point out the reason.He was so thankful that it was night time and Serene couldn't see him otherwise it would've been really embarr

Serene couldn't help but stare at the screen in utter shock. Someone was calling her as displayed by the unknown number , she had only 3 contacts in her phone - Benz , Mrs .Williams ( her teacher) and Rose. Keeping her bewilderment apart, she decided to pick up."HELLO" No reply"HELLO" Again NO reply.' It would be a wrong dial ' she thought and was about to cut the call when the voice on the other end froze her. It was him." Hi Serene , Rowan this side. ""Hi " she replied timidly still recovering from the blush that crept on her face just by his mere voice." Umm...mmm I wanted to ask.... have you reached your room safely ." Rowan managed to blurt nervously.He still couldn't comprehend what he was thinking before calling her. His excitement took the shape of nervousness when she replied.

L'ARC PARIS The atmosphere of the nightclub was wrapped in muck sweat due to the grinding bodies and whiffs of cigarettes and weed. The ill-lit bouncy lights made the place exciting for youngsters and a harbor for illegal affairs. The shouts and hoots did nothing to erase the molesting memories out of Benjamin's brain. The sparkling liquid swirling in his glass was a perfect illustration of the emotions he was feeling. The morning instances flashed in his brain. He had chosen to jog to empty the burden of encounters but returned with a steel boulder on his shoulders. It was ruffling and perturbing for him. He drowned himself with another set of drinks in an attempt to wash the stains of reverberating voices. He had gone berserk on Carl for driving him to her place and intruding in his personal life. But from inside, he was scared. Scared of saying or doing something that could cause her pain. He desperately wanted but couldn't. So they silently left after a t

Benjamin entered his condo, still trying to digest the hurt and humiliation he was pelted with, he had expected the accusation but the slap was definitely a bonus. Her fiery eyes encumbering her wrath made him drown in guilt. He wanted to confess the truth but he couldn't because in a life like his, Love was a treacherous lie and she deserved much more than that. He stood under the shower and a tear escaped his eye. How cruel was life to compel him for curbing his feelings? He banged on the wall muttering profanities and retired for sleep, probably in hope of meeting her in his dreams. The following morning was somber for both hearts. One was hurt and the other was blazing. " Come on Rose, what's the harm in meeting for Lunch. It's been ages since we last met." insisted Aaron, who was a great friend of Rose from College. He was an Architect and was currently on a break visiting Paris, so was convincin

SMILES ORPHANAGE Serene squinted her eyes to stop the notorious sun from tickling her. It was a vibrant day with sultry warm breeze merrily dancing. She gazed at the wall clock which struck 8 in the morning. She still had an hour for the breakfast. She lazily rolled and moved towards the washroom for a calming shower. As she winded up and toweled herself dry, she looked up and her eyes turned misty. She generally avoided looking in the mirror and whenever she did, her true self was buried under layers of concealer. None knew her true self except her brother and Mrs.Williams who were introduced to partial truth. Now, when her gaze raked at her raw form, she could see the proof of being ugly and a disgrace. There were faint red marks on her arms and her thighs decorated with whip marks. Her left breast had a large scar running down her stomach, mocking her. It was still fr

SMILES ORPHANAGE The evening was crisp yet somber. The setting sun cast a rosy hue across the evening sky casting shadows on the ground. Rowan felt his heart soaring with delight looking at the familiar walls of the Orphanage decorated with cartoon paintings. The grass had grown greener and the flowers flourished merrily. As he walked past the gates, the nostalgia filled his eyes and throat. Although he was away for a week, he still missed the warmth of this place. The memories tried to rush back but he blocked it, he was too indulged to let sadness and pain sink in. It was almost 7 in the evening and he could hear the wild chatters of delirium from the dining hall. It was dinner time as per the schedule of the orphanage. He decided to freshen up before meeting the kids. The time he opened the door, he could feel his heart rate increasing. It was stagnant, not

Till the time, Benjamin could recover from the shock, she had already left. He felt extreme fury dancing and controlling his mind and body. She had outrageously declined the protection he had offered against the pervert. For once he could understand her anger and glare, but her ignorance irked him.'Was she so piqued that she wanted to go away from his side ?' his insides churned at the thought.He inhaled and exhaled to let calmness wash over. He didn't want to create any scene that could further provoke her. Moments passed by and people went back to enjoy the party. The waiter left quietly adjusting his collar and swiping the sweat beads shoned on his face.He couldn't erase the image of them leaving together. There was an unsettling feeling in his heart that lingered every time he chose to ignore the situation. The way that pervert had gazed and smirked at her was frustrating him and he final

PARISThe land of food and fashion was surreal. The glistening tall buildings, the notorious fascinations and the tempting fashion stores could easily tingle your heart. The seduction of The City of Lights and Romance was enchantingly wrapped in the blanket of winter breeze. It was a salvation for a wanderlust soul.As Benjamin strolled out of his jet, he took a breath of composure and put on his shades. His Bugatti was readily waiting to take him to his condo. He sat inside so did Carl. It had been almost 3 years since he came to France earlier it used to be strictly for business but this time he thought of taking a small break for at least 3 days. While leaning back in his seat, he realized how robotically he was working for so many years, some lethal missions, disgusting auctions and sometimes even busting trafficking deals. He sighed because of the solitude he felt in his heart and life. The absence of Serene did no wonders

ITALY"Sir I got a call from our French business branch. The manager informed that Paris Pearls, the biggest fashion house of France are hosting their fashion week and they have invited the top businessmen from all around the world, we are one of them." Carl informed Benjamin who was checking the revenue files of their legal business." So what! Do you think I have time to attend such petty fashion shows? They invite businessmen for their own publicity and I am not a fool. My presence will profit them more than me. So return it with a NO." he sternly declared and went back to calculations while Carl nodded turning to leave.But abruptly stopped." Sir I think you should attend this." Benjamin raised his eyebrow mocking his audacity to cross-question an order." Are you asking for a death wish because even if you are not, I am about to grant you." warning wa

Joey will not talk to you." he huffed, holding the phone in his little hands, his cheeks turning red. Sister Anne was silently laughing behind him." Sorry, Jojo. I wanted to come early but I stopped to buy gifts for everyone. I was looking for the best gift for you but now you don't want si I'll leav..." Rowan expected the answer and he got it wrapped in an excited yell." No! I was joking. Come with gifts. I am not angry. I swear." Joey exclaimed hurriedly not willing to miss the pleasure of gifts. " But when will you come ?" he asked in a whisper." I'll be there by tomorrow evening Jojo. Brace yourself for the amazing delight. Inform Sister regarding my arrival. Okay !"" Yes, Chazi. I will and come fast. I love you. You are the Best !!!"

SMILES ORPHANAGE" Good Morning children! " Mrs. Williams greeted the children who had formed a circle around her group, some being enthusiastic like a bee while others calm like the sea."Good Morning miss," they shouted on the top of their lungs anticipating the motive of the arrival of strange faces. The children at Smiles Orphanage were extremely warm and welcoming. Although they were prey to a barbaric fate, they still had their innocence intact. They still believed that their parents had become stars or angels protecting them from above." I am Mia Williams and this is my group. We are here to have fun with you, little flowers. We'll dance, sing, learn and grow together hand in hand. Are you ready for this amazing talent show ?" she said loudly."Talent show? What is that ?" asked a 4 year old, energetic boy."
