"Some say life is a game, that means love is a casino." - KEVIN GATESMELODY POVQuestions! Lots of fuckin’ questions and zero answers. And I hated it.

I clutched my head before banging my fist onto the table with great indignation. Laylah was in Helsinki. “You called, Signora…” She said with a tiny bow, and I forced a smile on my face. “Can I have a cup of coffee please?” I asked, and she looked puzzled before squaring her shoulders and standing up right.“You want it with cream or plain black?” Goodness, gracious?

"Ride or Die: you are always there for one another in the good and the bad." - UNKNOWNMELODY POVThe occurrences of today hit me like a whiplash, leaving in their shadow a kind of fog that could only be penetrated by Jordan’s heavy presence.

He showed up just in time to stop the crack, but the damage was already done. Even though his mere stance was enough to melt the pain away, I could still feel the pain caused by the fissure in my soul. I was exhausted, mostly from crying my eyes red. And I had a splitting headache that was soon going to be the death of me if I didn't take care of it. And everything else had just been as overwhelming, and I was so out of it and so ready to spring back to my old life.

Panic settled on my tongue with a crashing weight when I took in the sight of the vacant space on the side of the bed, and I was out of the room flying down the hallways at a bolting speed. Thank God I was thoughtful enough to put on some pants.I rounded the corners only to be met by a vibrant commotion of people who were running just like me, wide-eyed and so unsettled...

All the air whooshed from out of me, and terror settled in my chest with a suffocating sensation that left me gasping hard for air. My lungs constricted painfully as hot air infested my insides. “God no…” I whispered b

"a true gangster can smell out a person's strengths and weaknesses in a matter of minutes, but what they can smell most of all, what their bodies are most attuned to, is the scent of fear." - LORENZO CARCATERRAJORDAN POV The city of Los Angeles was utterly washed out. You would swear it was during the peak of the apocalypse and everyone was in the safety of their cradle, hiding from the cruelty of the world while it was merely amidst fall. A few people loitered the streets, and a few cars honked and whooshed softly. My thoughts were scattered all over, but among all things that stayed cold and raw in my mind was the look on Melody’s face when we all received the news.
