[Ava]"Princess!!" Gabriel held his hand on the table, trying to regain himself. I stood still, staring up at him."Baby!!" My heart skipped as Gabriel began walking towards me. I had all the opportunities to leave and run back upstairs, but my legs had a mind of their own and remained glued to the floor as Gabriel hovered over me.I took a deep breath as I slowly looked up and met his gaze. His eyelids dropped, weighing down the corners of his eyes like anchors. He caged me up, his hand on either side of the counter as he stared deeply into my eyes. The memory of the video immediately flashed before my eyes again, and a heavyweight crushed my chest, making it difficult for me to breathe."Move!!" I cursed myself inwardly for how weak my voice sounded just having him so close. I reminded myself repeatedly of who he was and what he had done. He killed her, he killed my best friend."Please, Princess!" Gabriel whispered, his eyes fixed on mine as he tightly shut his eyes before snappin
[Ava]"Hey sunshine," I froze and felt my heart sink, even without looking I already knew who it was. I slowly looked up, putting down my coffee, and there he was standing in front of me with a smile on his lips, dressed in a tuxedo with his silver orbs fixed on mine. "Hi... hello," I stuttered, swallowing the sudden lump that formed in my throat as I stared at Caleb."Are you okay?" Caleb asked, taking a seat opposite mine and reaching out to take my hand in his. I stared directly into his eyes. My heart stung as his hand touched mine. Of course, I'm not fine, I'm seated right here trying to clear my mind because I just found out that my boyfriend is behind your sister's death."I'm...I'm okay, how are you... I mean, why are you here?" I stuttered, biting down on my lower lip, trying to calm the turmoil brewing inside of me."Sunshine what's wrong? You don't look good, please talk to me is everything okay?" Caleb asked again, a look of concern etched on his forehead. I nodded at hi
[Ava]“Logan!!Logan!!” I screamed, my voice echoing through the hallway, I know you can hear me! You've started again right, Logan!! Give me my AirPods or else I'm going to go over to your room and pack all your new clothes, Don't dare me,”“You're my elder brother for crying out loud!!! I should be borrowing from you, not the other way round,” I screamed at the top of my voice as I slowly climbed down the stairs.“I hope this is not one of your games. You're hiding right, I'm going to catch you, and if I do, you're dead Logan you are!!!”I stormed into the kitchen, my heart racing with frustration. But my anger vanished the moment I saw him. Gabriel, my brother's best friend. The man I'd been secretly lusting after for years. The one I'd been too afraid to face since I moved down here in Switzerland, fearing my feelings would be exposed.And now here he was standing in front of me, shirtless, his chiseled body glistening with a bit of sweat that made him look like he just walked out
[Ava]I watched as he walked in, gently coming towards me, his eyes burning with a passionate yearning , I don't know if I was seeing right or if it was my imagination.But I wasn't ready to make him think I'm such a loose girl that is lusting over her elder brother's friend who is about eight years older than her.I was about to tell him to leave, when his voice broke the silence, reducing the tension in the room.“Here, Logan said he has been calling you and you're not taking his calls,” he said, handing me his phone while he unmuted it.What was I thinking, that he would want to have a thing with me? I am such a fool“Hey little demon, why are you not picking up your call?” My brother Logan screamed on the phone.“Brother to a little demon, do I owe you any explanation on that, meanwhile I've warned you, Logan, stop calling me that name, I swear one day I'm going to behead you,” I screamed back at him.I looked at Gabriel with my side eyes and noticed how his lips curved up to a sm
[Ava]I shut the door immediately, staring at the door frame like a lost sheep. I felt my legs weaken. Gabriel was stepping out of Logan's bathroom with nothing on his body, his eyes locked in mine, he didn't even bother to close the monster that he had down there that was staring back at me.I was able to put some strength back in my legs and rush back upstairs, I was still storming up the stairs when I felt footsteps following behind me, I increased my pace, my thoughts swirled in a jumbled mix of emotions, making it hard to focusWas he mad at me that I saw him naked? Shouldn't he have locked the doors, knowing he's not the only one in this house? I would have just respected my brother when he said I should always knock on his door before barging in.What Gabriel had down there was not what I was expecting or imagined, it looked way huge, fuck…I was about to push my door open when a hand held me back and pinned me against the wall with my hands raised above my head.“Why are you ru
[Ava] “Gabriel,” what is this? Logan asked him stretching the phone to his face, his eyes scanned the item and he grabbed the phone back from Logan and then suddenly turned towards me I'm very sure it's the test Gabriel sent me, but I was confused as to why Logan wasn't looking in my direction. I picked up my spoon which fell earlier and started picking on my food slowly while still trying to understand the situation. “I thought you weren't seeing her again, how come you guys are still lovey-dovey on the phone,” Logan finally said. Gabriel's eyes narrowed, his gaze fixed on him with a cold intensity that made me wonder what was going on, he turned his eyes back to his phone without responding to him, but Logan continued. “So she was the one you were with on Friday night that made you avoid my calls huh?” he furrowed his brow at Gabriel and smirked. I felt a knot tightening up in my chest, he was actually texting some other girl and here I was feeling excited that he kissed me, I
[Ava]He looked into my eyes, he could sense the confused look on my face, he leaned in and kissed me on the side of my lips, he pulled me up again and made me sit on his face, I held onto the couch for support, so I wouldn't sit on him with all my weight.His tongue rolled all over my entrance, circling my clit, I clutched my hands tighter on the couch, trying to suppress what I was feeling down there, he raised my hoodie, and I noticed he wanted me to pull it off, I pulled it off my neck and tossed it across the couch, as he continued his ministration. I moaned under my breath.I felt his hands on my clit, he flipped it In circles, his tongue was still circling on my entrance, the sensation was too much to handle, it felt like an intense pressure was building up inside me, I couldn't control it, overwhelmed by the sheer pressure, I jerked off from his face and sat on his laps. I was panting heavily as I stared deep into his eyes. My juices were all over his mouth. He pulled out his
[Ava]“Gabriel what do we do,” I asked Gabriel, my heart pounded in my chest, and droplets of sweat formed on my brow.“And why is your hoodie and shorts downstairs, do you now drop your clothes anywhere, is your tiny bit of OCD fading away?.” My eyes widened as I heard Logan's voice, fuck, we left my clothes downstairs.I watched Gabriel as he slipped on his clothes and stood up, his calm demeanor was evident in his slow, deliberate movements, and it was annoying, is he trying to make my brother find out?“You need to hide, please hide in the washroom, my brother can't find you in here, he will kill me.” I dragged him, but he pulled me back and held me close to him.“And what if he finds out, does that even matter.” He circled his hands on my waist.“Gabriel please stop, you need to hide,” I pushed him off my body and pushed him into the washroom, and shut the door. I walked through the entrance and turned over to the bed. It looked so messed up, but if I spent another minute in here
[Ava]"Hey sunshine," I froze and felt my heart sink, even without looking I already knew who it was. I slowly looked up, putting down my coffee, and there he was standing in front of me with a smile on his lips, dressed in a tuxedo with his silver orbs fixed on mine.

[Ava]"Princess!!" Gabriel held his hand on the table, trying to regain himself. I stood still, staring up at him."Baby!!" My heart skipped as Gabriel began walking towards me.

[Ava]"Ava, please stop, where are you running to!!" Ashley ran after me as I dashed out of the house, I needed to be anywhere far away from those two strangers that I thought I knew. My entire body tensed up, my heart pounding hard in my chest. This is so messed up."Ava!!" Ashley yelled my name, her hand grabbing my shoulder to keep me from running. I stared back at her, I just needed to be alone right now "Ashley!!" tears streamed down my face as I stared back at her"Please, I'm begging you, calm down let's go in, it's freaking cold out here!!" Ashley pleaded, but I shook my head, pulling my arm from her grasp."Ash, I can't go in there," my lips quivered as I stared at the flash drive in my hand. I just want to be anywhere away from this house and the two men in there."It's almost midnight, please I'm begging, I understand how you feel right now, and I am as speechless as you are, but we need to go in!" Ashley held my hand, tears welling up at the corners of her eyes, but ther
[Gabriel]"Tell me, were you...were you the boyfriend Remi had five years ago?" Ava asked, her gaze fixed on mine. I opened my mouth to speak, but nothing came out. I shoved my hand into my scalp, my heart racing like a wild animal. I have never felt so helpless in my whole life."Princess, I—I..." I lowered my gaze, unable to form a complete sentence as tears pricked the corners of my eyes. My eyes snapped towards her as I heard her body thud forcefully to the ground. My legs tried to move on their own only for Logan to drag me back, and I watched as Ashley rushed towards her.I looked at my woman quivering like a watered leaf, her whole body tensing as she dragged Ashley down, whispering some inaudible words to her, and in an instant Ashley looked up at us, signaling us to leave. I shook my head at her, there's no way I'm stepping out of this room, not now or ever."Gabriel!!" Logan's voice came through as he held my hand, motioning with his chin for us to step out. Before I could p
[Ava] "Logan please!!" I muttered as I stared at my brother at the door, refusing to take my gaze away from Gabriel. My body quivered, ice-cold dread seeping into my veins, freezing my limps. My entire world was telescoping into a single, suffocating reality: Gabriel, Remi, the knife lodged in Remi's tummy, held up by Gabriel. Logan walked into the room before I could take another step, while I held my laptop tightly and clutched my other hand protectively to my tummy. I couldn't take my eyes off Gabriel, I was trying everything I could to read where his eyes would deny any of this, but all I could see was fucking guilt. "Gabriel, how are you here, and what the fuck is going on?" Logan snapped again, staring from me to Gabriel, and for the first time, I took my eyes off Gabriel and turned my attention to my brother, tears rolling down my cheek "Logan... who... who is this?" I asked my brother as I pointed at Gabriel. Logan looked at me with a furrowed brow, and before he could sa
[Gabriel]"Listen Ava don't insert any damn...." The phone beeped, cutting off my voice. Fuck!! I looked at the phone, only to see that the damn call had been disconnected.My entire mind has been a complete mess since we touched down Zurich just thirty minutes ago, and I don't think I have ever held onto the steering wheel while driving like a crazy person like I am doing right now! What fucking flash drive was she talking about.I groaned as I dialed her number only to have it go straight to voicemail. This is not happening. Please, it can't be what I'm thinking! Who the fuck is this? What fucking flash drive! I groaned as I stepped on the gas, throwing my phone aside"Get the fuck out of my way if you don't want both of us to end up in hell right now!" I cursed loudly, swirling my steering as I made a U-turn to avoid the fucking car that I almost crashed into.My hand dug into my scalp as I cursed loudly, just where the fuck is Logan, and why was he not picking up his phone too?M
[Ava] I swiped up redialing Gabriel's number but my heart sank as the word out of coverage flashed on the screen. I let out a frustrated sigh and turned to Ashley who was staring back at me with her brows furrowed"He seems angry!" I muttered as I glanced down at the flash drive in Ashley's hand, I reached out for it and placed it back into the envelope with the paper before dropping it aside"Gabriel can't stay mad at you and you know that he's just worried about your safety!" Ashley said and I nodded as I ignited my engine and drove off********"Hey!" I greeted Logan as we walked into the sitting room, clutching the envelope tightly in my handsLogan looked up, his gaze shifting from me to Ashley"Where are you guys coming from this late?" Logan asked "We went out for a drive!" Ashley replied swiftly before I could even say anything Logan's eyes darted from me to Ashley before settling back on mine"What's wrong? You seem a bit shaken?" Logan asked, furrowing his brows as his ey
[Ava]"What exactly is that?" I mumbled under my breath I picked up the envelope from the table, my trembling hands betraying my growing unease. I gulped down the sudden lump that made its way to my throatMy gaze swept around the room as I held the envelope, carefully tearing open the sealed edge. I stared down at the opened envelope. Biting my lower lip, I inserted my hand and felt something I couldn't still decipher. I reached out and slowly pulled it out"A flash drive?" I muttered, my eyes fixed on the sleek black device with a gold tip.What was I supposed to do with this? Was this guy playing some kind of twisted game with me?I hesitated for a moment, then reached back into the envelope searching for any other clues. My fingers paused as they brushed against something hard and unfamiliarI pulled it out and it was a piece of paper, I slowly opened it up noticing the scribbled writing, but the dim light made it impossible for me to read a thing. Taking a deep breath, I returne
[Ava]As I entered the room, my eyes scanned the space. A plush couch sat in a corner accompanied by a round table and two leather chairs. My gaze shifted to the bar area, a guy who had a face cap on was right there, as he expertly mixed a few drinks, his focus solely on what he was doingI glanced around, confused about what to do next. Was he the one I was supposed to meet? I pressed my lips into a thin line, clutching my purse tighter as I stared at the guy who remained oblivious to my presenceI stood still, unable to move. I held up my phone as I made to text the number when a voice broke the silence, making me dart my eyes towards the guy, who was staring back at me"Take a seat!" he boomed, his deep voice echoing through the room. I raised an eyebrow as he emerged from behind the counter, two glass cups in his hand. That's when I got a good look at him - and realized he didn't look like a bartender. He was glad in a crisp white shirt, with two buttons down, gray pants, and a fa
