"Oh No!!! The warehouse is on fire . All the drugs and weapons were there. Shit! We have to do something. " The man shouted frantically scared of what he'll answer his boss.
" Sir we have found something here . It's HIS SYMBOL. This is HIS doing . “The man sat there bewildered how easily Satan snicked in their territory like air and left them into ashes. They were well aware of his might. The one who could engulf people alive without leaving any trace of their existence. It seemed as if they never walked in this Earth. None knew his loopholes, his weaknesses or his plans. All they knew he was a living nightmare with a cruel smirk and enchanting eyes who hypnotized traitors to accept their fate the way he had written it. The air around him was not calming but destructive which knocked the enemy from head to toe.Holding the sign the man frantically kept looking around, profoundly sweating, knitting lies to answer his boss because he knew one word of truth would be last word of his life.
Far in the distance, sat Satan in his Mercedes enjoying the whirls of smoke which enamored his Power but chocked his enemy. His gracious smirk adorned his face thinking how his doings would leave the enemy thoughtless , penniless and powerless.
Wearing his shades he ordered his driver , "To Miles , I have to pick my Lily.”
Just the mere thought of her gave strength to his smile to push that dirty smirk of his face. He quickly changed his smoke stained shirt into a new crisp one and threw the spoiled one under his seat cover. His aura took a 180° turn as the car took the last turn and stopped in front of THE MILES . His stern exterior turned soft as he stepped out of the car , eyes fixed on her as she walked out of the academy . As if feeling his gaze , she turned and ...
AND
Smiled. Giving him the most satisfying and warm smile which receded the darkness of his heart. He replicated her smile and she sprinted towards him , hugging him as if he was her world. Whining she said -"That's not fare Benz . You always arrive so early, I can't even checkout boys. Now I realize you are the reason I am still single. " She kept on bantering but he just smiled seeing her , opening up to him finally again after years.
He attempted to be funny and said," Oh ! That hurt me here", he said placing his hand on his chest as in brutual pain. He continued, " Oh God, why didn't I die before hearing this . My Lily is saying she doesn't like her Benz anymore. I wish the bullet would have pie-“
He didn't get to complete when he saw the thin line of crystals embracing her eyes .
He realized he had crossed the line .He attempted to hug her but she silently sat in the car and then he cursed his poor acting skills for this.
He sat beside her ,no words exchanged between them. He knew his Lily wouldn't agree without her favorite thing , so he planned his apology in the silence.While driving back to the manshion, the driver was shocked to see how the Satan threw his demeanor under his seat cover with the white shirt. He was struck to witness how he transformed infront of her. The car entered the driveway and his Lily went to her room silently which was a prison , her prison . This irked Benz and he went to earn her smile. Getting dressed the way she liked and remincing the moves, he strolled towards her room and played their song.facing the door- This hit, that ice coldMichelle Pfeiffer, that white goldThis one for them hood girlsThem good girls straight masterpiecesStylin',wilin',livin' it up in the cityGot Chucks on with Saint Laurent
NEW YORKThe citylights looked alluringly beautiful like small stars on land from the view of the penthouse. The fast running cars looked no less than the shooting stars. All these lights surrendered when they came in contact with gloominess of the room. The contrast was too sharp to ignore.There in the room sat a soul with just the light of the table lamp . He drew several strokes of colours on the white canvas tainting it's original state to create something more beautiful, more aesthetic . All the colors looked more powerful when they glistened on his tan body rather than the canvas.But he cared less . The fast movement of his hands showed his determination which led to the creation of another masterpiece.
ITALY "Benz when are you going to the next bidding? You know you haven't gone to one since long . I haven't seen any new painting of "R.Cz." in your room .The last dated 6 months back. " Serene asked her brother who was busy thinking about the next attack. "Soon Lily, I heard he has his exhibition in 7 days. This time it's in MAURITIUS. " He answered absent mindedly." WHAT!! MAURITI... " She couldn't complete as her brother scrutinized her face and she gulped.He observed this change and asked her, " What's so shocking about it. What's going on in that little brain of yours?" She was nervous but still fathomed courage to answer, " I have my next Ballet in MAURITIUS .
AIRPORT , MAURITIUS"How can you ask me to be calm when my luggage is missing" shouted a girl gathering the crowd at the airport after the plane landed in Mauritius. " Mam please calm down we are working on it. We are making regular announcements. Have patience. " The faculty tried their best to calm the ticking bomb."What! You are telling me to have patience when my veins are throbbing. You know who am I ? I am Eva Rose , the sister of Ro... " She stopped to contemplate wheather she should mention Rowan or not. Considering the latter she changed her plans and was about to mention about sueing the authorities when there was a soft pat on her shoulders. She turned and was stunned to see a girl with a broad grin and light freckles which camouflaged her face and added a hidden charm to he
Mauritius was like heaven on the Earth . Serene felt her anxities disappearing and she took long breaths as if wanting to capture everything within her. The calming sea waves embracing her feet pleasured her as she surrendered to the beauty of the shore . The cold yet comforting winds blew her hair and she sheepishly giggled. She could feel the emancipation from her identify crisis and unhealed wounds . All she was feeling was pure happiness. She concluded that this was the destination of any wanderlust soul. She felt her name being mirrored in this solace as it blessed her with pristine serenity and sanity. SHE FELT FREE..."Hey Ser" Serene got startled when someone gave a soft pat on her shoulder. She was about to take out the dagger that she had kept at the back of her jeans but relaxed when she saw it was Eva.
" So... baby pullllll..... me closer " "In the back seat of your RRooovvvverrr" "Wait! We don't have a Roveerrrr. Hahah." Slurred Serene and Rose. Both kept babbling strange words in an alien accent. They were laughing endlessly as they reached the resort. Even the taxi driver was shocked to witness their craziness. They were soo drunk that they didn't realize it was almost midnight and they were heading towards the pool area.While sitting on the chair , Serene suddenly stood up and said , " Today my soldier you have made me really happy. You know I am laughing whole heartedly after 9 years . Today I feel freeeeee. Wohooooo. " She giggled but stopped when she saw Eva's confused fa"9 years hahahahahah...... Are you insane or what. I smile everyday, I laugh everyday and you say.... That...
When....The lights went off. There was utter darkness on the area. Serene and Rose couldn't see each other but since they were holding hands , they were aware of each others presence.Rose's phone started ringing. It was difficult to locate but due to the brightened screen, she quickly held the phone in her hand . Seeing Rowan's name on the screen she beamed and answered-Rose : Helloooo Row. I missed you.Rowan: You missed me? That's strange. Well, where are you ? I am standing outside your room and it's locked.Rose: Finally ....Mrr.Rowan Chazzee got time for me. If the door is locke
When she.... Turned and kissed his jaw followed by the throbbing vein of his throat. She licked his earlobe and then took him in a warm hug. In her own dream Land she murmured, " Hmmm. You smell so good . You are so warm . Why don't you become my teddy bear?" She tightened the hug. Shock would be an understatement, Rowan was paralyzed. Her breath led his heartbeat to run a marathon. His reins got loosened up when she licked his earlobe . The heat of her tongue slashed the coldness of the night . But he was stuck on the fact that someone was seeking warmth from him? He just couldn't believe it in his best dreams or worst nightmares. An unknown smile grazed his features and on his accord , he rounded his hands around her and r
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
MAURITIUS" This is not fair Chazi. You promised you'll return in 3 days and you didn't even call for 7 days. 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." It is sort of an exam, but a lot more fu
