[Gabriel]I watched as the warmth in her gaze dissolved giving way to a frightened expression that seemed to whisper a thousand unspoken terrors. My heart ached as I watched the look of terror in her eyes.I couldn't take it any longer, the fear in her eyes, the way her body trembled like a watered leaf, and how the first look in her eyes when I walked all vanished, replaced by hatred. My fist clenched into a ball as I turned on my heels and made my way out, halting in front of Caleb, I looked up at him, and he furrowed his brow. I could see a look of amusement dancing in the idiots' eyes. My hand ached so much to pin him to this wall and unleash all of my fury, but I bottled it up and moved much closer to him."Make sure to keep your hands to yourself, if you try anything funny, you will not last another hour on this planet!" I snapped at him, his lips stretching into a smirk that he quickly concealed before walking out on meI wanted to go back there, grab her, and walk out of this
[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]I walked out of the studio, completely exhausted from today's yoga class. It's been a year since I started teaching yoga to teens, and I've loved every bit of it. Yoga has been a passion of mine since I was a child, and teaching it has always been my dream. I spent a lot of time practicing and attending classes to improve my skills. Today's section was intense, with difficult poses and nonstop flow, but moments like this remind me why I enjoy what I do. The experience at inner peace yoga studio where I work has been fantastic, and I am grateful for every moment of it.I know wishes come true, but I guess I had one that did not come to pass. My late bestfriend Remi and I had dreamt of owning our own yoga studio, she was never a fan of yoga, but when I drew her in and she saw the beautiful scenery, she fell in love with it. We always attended practice together, and we did yoga in our spare time. I shook my head and sucked down the cool water from my water bottle, trying my hardest
[Gabriel]I watched as the warmth in her gaze dissolved giving way to a frightened expression that seemed to whisper a thousand unspoken terrors.

[Ava]Caleb had asked me to eat something for the third time, but I refused, eating was the least of my concerns right now. I had turned on my phone earlier for no stupid reason, I should be hating myself so much right now that I am concerned about a man who murdered my best friend. Why do I have to turn on my phone to stare at his picture? And then Ashley's call came in. I didn't want to talk to her because I was still upset about what she said at the studio, so I asked Caleb to pick up and tell her I didn't want to speak to anyone"Thank you!" I muttered to Caleb as he handed me back my phone. I took the phone from his grasp and switched it off, putting it aside."Sunshine!!" Caleb called out, taking a seat next to mine where I was seated in the dining room. I stared up at him. I had been crying for hours nonstop since we stepped into his house, and Caleb had been trying to ask what the problem was, but how could I say a word to him?"I don't like the way you are, it's breaking my h
[Gabriel]"Where the fuck is Ava? Put my woman on the phone right now if you don't want me to burn you alive! What the fuck are you doing with her damn phone?" I snapped, and I heard a slight chuckle on his end. Was my mind playing tricks on me?"She's in my house and like I said before, she's not in a good state to take calls right now," the idiot repeated."What the fuck do you mean by that?" I cursed loudly, and within seconds the phone beeped and immediately went dead on his end.I groaned, raking my hand on my hair as I handed the phone back to AshleyI marched towards my car ignoring Ashley who was asking me what was wrong, I stepped into the car and Ashley ran over to the passenger seat, sliding in"Gabriel, what's wrong? Who picked up her call?" Ashley gripped my hand, her finger digging into my skin as she quivered slightlyI ignored her, dialing Jaxon's number, I'll fucking skin that dude alive. I groaned pressing the phone to my ear and on the first ring Jaxon picked up"B
[Gabriel]I was pacing back and forth in Logan's sitting room, it was 9 p.m., and Ashley had called me making me drive as fast as I could over here when she said she had not heard from Ava, and if I said I was not on the verge of losing my mind, then I must be lying. Where has she gone? Ashley said she left her at the studio during break hour and she had not heard from her since then.I paused on my track, turning to Ashley, who was seated beside Logan, tears streaming down her cheeks."You didn't hear her mention going anywhere at all? Is there anywhere you think she might be? Or a place she normally goes?" I asked Ashley, and she shook her head."She angrily left when I tried to talk to her, I could have just stayed by her side, I shouldn't have said what I said, this is my fault!" Ashley said, bursting into tears"Nothing is your fault here, will you stop blaming yourself?" Logan scolded Ashley, pulling her closer to his body. I dug my fingers into my scalp, staring at the countle
[Ava]We got out of the car, and every breath I took felt like a suffocating weight crushing my lungs as we walked slowly into the cemetery. I knew my way around because I always visited her.We walked slowly, and I tilted my neck to look at Caleb, who was holding the cake box while I held the bouquet. As we got closer to Remi's grave, I noticed Caleb's forehead creasing into a big frownTime seemed to warp and distort, stretching out seconds into agonizing minutes as we got closer. We paused in our tracks as we stood before her grave. My heart skipped a thousand beats as my eyes wandered up to her name elegantly etched into the granite headstone.The entire environment spun around me like a carnival ride, making me disoriented and dizzy. I felt as if my entire being was leaving my body as pain and guilt coursed through my body"Are you okay?" Caleb's voice almost made me jump, jolting me out of my reverie. I stared up at him, seeing that he had placed down the cupcake he had in his
[Ava]"Hey, are you okay?" Caleb glanced at me, his eyes darting between me and the road as he extended a hand in my direction. I nodded hastily, waving him off but he persisted, handing me a bottled water. I uncapped it and gulped down half of the contents, exhaling deeply as the cool liquid soothed my parched throatCaleb's eyes locked onto mine for a second, his expression concerned. "I'm sorry, are you okay now?" He asked softly, I offered him a reassuring smile and a gentle nod, tucking the bottled water between my legs as I released a slow deep breathThat was unexpected, God!! Not here, what am I supposed to say? I could feel heat coursing through my cheeks as I wished he would just forget whatever he asked right now, but my hopes were dashed when his voice came once more. "Did I say something I shouldn’t have?" Caleb asked, my brows furrowing as I turned towards him"No...I mean..." I cursed myself inwardly as I stuttered. Put yourself the fuck together Ava"You don't seem ok
[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]"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]"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
