GregI have a lot of things coming up.The pop-up event in a few days on Monday, the housewarming party with Jeremiah's family a day before that, and then, another project for my course at the institute. This time written.Yet, I still managed to think about a certain asshole.It could be the freaking weather news, a coffee from the coffee shop, or even a random guy wearing a hoodie on the streets, which shouldn't remind me of him, but it did, and I hate that.It was quite annoying."Greg!" The voices of my friends, Bella and Lyra, brought me out of my reverie as I stood in the middle of the office lounge staring at the TV there, and I sipped the coffee I had been holding."Sorry guys, I was just uhm..." Thinking about an asshole"... doing something."Lyra sighed, "Okay, so what should I do?""What?""She's thinking of telling Adrian on their anniversary that is coming up." Bella replied on her behalf."Oh. Right. I mean, why not? It's a good surprise.""Exactly what I said." Bella
GregAdrian was already in the hotel, La Vita Eterna, when I got to its lobby, and he gestured towards the elevator, which we both got into immediately."Thank you for deciding to help me today.""Of course. It's for Lyra, so sure.""How was she when you left?""Calm." She had been pretty occupied with the shopping, which she insisted we do even though she already had a bunch of clothes early this morning, and I had excused myself a few hours later to come here."Really?""Yes. She's getting prepared for your anniversary too.""Oh, great. What do you think?" He asked once we stepped out into an open space.It was the rooftop with a single table and two chairs in the midst of it.The fuck?There were flowers also, candles, a freaking red carpet, and a whole kitchen counter beside the table setting."What is going on?" I glanced at Adrian to see him staring at me intently, and he raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean? Is it too small?""Small?"You must be kidding me.First of all, luxu
GregThe idea kept building up in my head even after that night.Fuck him out of my system.Would it really work?I mean, there could even be the possibility that he wouldn't be good in bed, so why not?Okay, I think he would be good.He's always so... He just seems like someone who would be a good f..."Greg!"Oh fuck!I turned in my seat to see a colleague, Hunter, holding some papers, and he handed them to me, "The final report. Mr. Stone told you to bring it.""Right. Thanks."I stood up from my seat immediately to go deliver the report, and I paused in my steps when I opened his door to see him buttoning down his shirt.He looked taken aback too."S-sorry." I had forgotten to knock."No, it's fine. Come in. I stained this with that, and that's why I'm doing this..."He smiled as he pointed to the cup that was on his desk, and I took a seat after shutting the door behind me.It's crazy how we were still awkward around ourselves after we had kissed a few times."Give me a minute."
Kael"Weather forecast for the day. Heavy downpour is expected in the following areas today: Carrer de la Llum, Plaça del Sol Blau, and Carrer del Sol. Citizens are advised to take their umbrellas, suit up, and..."I picked up the remote on the table to turn off the TV, then turned to face the floor-to-ceiling mirror that was in my room, quite shaken up.I tried to think of various things.The success of the exhibition.The artwork we had successfully purchased.The rain...No, I shouldn't think about that.I rubbed my hands together and stuffed them into my pocket once I was done knotting my tie."Mr. Clarke."Right.I stepped out of the room and into the hallway where Sebastian stood."We're going to be late.""Let's hurry up then.""How are things at the gallery?" I asked when we got into my car outside, and he handed me a tab right before starting the car."The artworks have been placed as we agreed, and the gallery is ready to be opened.""Great," I said as I took a look at the p
GregI can't believe we had had sex after a few minutes of meeting.Not once, but twice.It hadn't even been part of my plan, but I should lose interest in him anytime soon, right?I mean, we already had sex, so...I sighed.Don't use interest.Um... Whatever it is I'm feeling.I should get over it, right?I sighed again and tried to get off him after a few seconds, but he placed his hand on my waist."Stay."What?His dick was still inside me."Are you serious? How are we going to leave here then?""Do you have a place to stay?""Not yet, but...""Come with me then.""Huh?"Not a good idea, but..."We have to..." I pointed between us to indicate him pulling out, and he nodded after a few seconds."Yeah."He finally let go of my waist, and I collapsed on the seat beside him.I pulled up my pants and sighed.Gosh.I've gotten what I came here for, but...He told me to stay.I shouldn't, right?But it's not like I have a place to go. It had just been sudden.Right, is he okay? I thought
Kael The sun was already up when I opened my eyes the next day. No rain. No fear. Just a leg wrapped around mine and an arm around my upper arm when I glanced down at his pretty face. God, he looked so good even with his hair ruffled. No, especially with his hair ruffled. It made him look so different from the guy that was always glaring at me and angry, even though I loved that version of him too. Wait, love? No, I just like looking at him all riled up and angry; that is all. Besides, it made him look sexy, which in turn makes me hard, so... I stood up from the bed to go freshen up and change in the bathroom, and I picked up Greg's phone when it started to ring in his discarded pants downstairs. Jeremiah. The caller ID said. The guy. His boss. They're still in contact? Of course they're in contact; he's his boss. I picked up the call without thinking. "Greg. Hello. Are you there?" "Who is this?" The guy paused for a second. "Who are you?" Grea
GregI was thankfully able to get a quick flight from Barcelona back home once I got to the airport later that afternoon, and the ride took about two hours total, my feelings making it feel like it was a whole day.So I do like him.I had realized that while arguing with him this morning.The way he had chuckled, called me a good fuck, and made jokes of the situation, it had made me want to bury myself into the ground from the heartbreak.That was what it felt like, and we hadn't even been dating.Ugh!I hailed a taxi once I got outside the airport and told the driver my address."Okay."Another thirty minutes and I was back home."Greg." My sister said, happy to see me."You're back.""Yup."I walked past her and straight to my bedroom, where I collapsed on the bed."What is wrong? Are you okay?"I nodded my head against the bed and sighed deeply."What happened? Didn't the job work out?"Right, I had told her I was going for a work trip.""I just want to be alone, Gia."She stared a
KaelI watched as the guy, Jeremiah, made his way back to the hospital room to sit beside Greg.He trailed his fingers down his cheeks, then placed a kiss on his forehead.Exactly what I had done and in the same place.I felt like strangling him there and then.Who does he think he is to touch him?I pulled the hoodie properly over my head and made my way back to my car, which was parked in an alley.I don't even know why I'm here.I had just gotten on a plane after realizing that the feeling I felt the other day, the weird one, was in fact related to Greg.The way he had said he could never like me, the way he had looked hurt and disgusted, it just didn't seem to sit right with me.Why?I wouldn't know.Actually, I do. I think I might like him just a little bit.These jealous feelings, thoughts of him that made me smile, and this pull in my heart, I couldn't seem to get it out of my head too.I sighed and took out my phone to check the time, and I saw it to be 3 am.Might as well ge
Quinn"Here are your things." An officer said as I moved towards the door, which would lead outside to the main gates, and I collected the wallet and phone right before stepping out.Ah, finally.I'm out.After two years.It had been a long time, but it had definitely helped me reflect on a lot of things.Like how to make fewer mistakes.I couldn't believe it was just a scratch that got me here.But I had gotten a mission within, so...I packed my hair into a messy ponytail and sighed when I checked the time on my phone.I have just about thirty minutes.That wasn't a lot of time, so...I got to work.Setting the bait, then getting into the car that had been parked for me a few miles away from the prison gates, and I waited.One minute.Five minutes.Ring ring.Ring ring.The alarm I had set on my phone started to ring after exactly ten minutes, and I sat up in the driver's seat once I turned it off.Hmm, they should be here any moment from now.I took the .45 caliber semi-automatic p
BellaThe following days were a repetition of the past few days.Wake up, shower, eat, mingle around the field, get bullied, work in the kitchen, do some homemade workout I learned, shower, eat, then sleep.I hardly had conversations with my cellmate since she was always to herself, and I rarely backed down for my bullies.I hated bullies, and I made sure to let them know.The next morning, though, went a different way because some bullies thought it wise to harass me while bathing.It happened suddenly.Hands groping me while I tried to clear the soap from my eyes and some grabbing my breast while at it."You bitches!"They held me and tried to take me to a corner where they could do God knows what until we all paused.One hand left me.Another.Then there were thuds around me.I wasn't sure what was going on as I had soap in my eyes, and I felt a stronger hand grab me after a minute.Water.Oh, thank God.Then I opened my eyes.It was my cellmate, and the other ladies in the bathroo
Bella"Sì. E tu?" Yes. You? I asked as I remained in my position.She sat up and raised an eyebrow. "What do you think?"Oh great, she can speak English and seems pretty good at it too."I don't know. You tell me.""Smart." She said as she stood up to take a few steps towards me.I tried my best not to step back."Not making assumptions. It's a good approach to living in jail here and might just help you live longer than a week."I gasped and tried to stop her when she suddenly pulled the hair tie off my hair.My hair fell in a cascade around my shoulders. I should have gotten that haircut before all this."Thanks." She said as she pulled her hair up into a messy ponytail."Why would you do that?"She didn't reply as she went back to lying down and closing her eyes, and I scoffed.Okay, rude.I tried to access her again."You didn't answer my question, though."She didn't say anything again.I wondered what the answer might be.Her first time or second time.Or wait, she could have be
BellaUgh, I couldn't believe I got caught after everything.The ship, the motels, the tunnels, and wearing the freaking hoodie I've been wearing everywhere I go.The police still caught me on entering the country."You have a right to a lawyer...." Blah blah, and blah, and all that, they said when they handcuffed me, and they threw me into this van.I sighed and tried to adjust my wrist in the handcuffs even though there was literally no space."Stop moving." The man beside me snapped and stared, and I scowled for a minute before averting my gaze from him.At least it was the police who had caught me, not them, so I was still better off."Get down."I did so with the help of the officer when we got to the FBI office, and they dragged me along till I was seated in an empty room with grey walls and a single table in the midst of it.I stared at the single window or mirror in the room, which I knew the officers were just staring at me from the other side, and I smiled."Let's get this o
And we've come to the end of Greg and Kael's story🥳🎉🤭.Thanks for all the reads and support. I appreciate it.I also want to know what you all think?Did you like the story?Did it meet your expectations?The next and last story will be that of Bella and I really hope you enjoy it.Ruthiana.
GregLyra and Adrian finally picked a date for their wedding a month after I moved to Barcelona, which was also around the time she gave birth, and I went back to Rome to help with the preparations.The guest list, the gown, the cake, the invitation design, then the venue.Adrian had already decided on Thailand with her, and they put together their guests from both sides.It wasn't up to a hundred.First of all, because of attention—they didn't want that—and second of all, because they just want to have the moment with close family and friends.I loved the whole theme and vibe and teared up even more when she went for her first fitting with the designer.Jolene Craig. One of the best designers in Italy.She looks so beautiful.Bella agreed too.The lace, the shape, she accentuated all of that with her aura.I just couldn't wait to see Adrian's expression when he sees her.Next was the cake, which we helped pick the design of, and we chose the outfits for the bridesmaids, us, and Betha
GregI resigned from Hurley Fashion House at the same time I finished with my course at the institute I was studying at, and the first person to wish me congratulations was my sister. She was back in school now, thanks to Greg and his generosity constantly, and the next people that came to celebrate me were my friends, Bella and Lyra at the graduation ceremony in the school."Finally, you're the designer you've always wanted to be.""Yup. I am."I couldn't believe it.Studying business management has been one of the many ideas of my parents that stuck with me, but fashion has been something I've loved since I was a kid."Where is Kael, or isn't he coming?"The million-dollar question.I glanced around again for the hundredth time amongst the other family and friends who came to celebrate their loved ones but still didn't see him.He didn't even call to say he would be late or anything, or maybe something came up.I smiled with Lyra and tried to stomp the disappointment."Let's go tak
GregWe went to his apartment after we finished eating, the ride filled with mumblings and kisses as a designated driver drove, and we both stumbled into his apartment when we got there.I wasn't even sure what the place looked like; I was just focused on this man that was now my boyfriend.Kael or Benjamin Clarke.I couldn't help the smile that spread across my face.I hadn't even been expecting the question at all considering the fact that it had seemed like he was never going to ask, thanks to the whole situation, but he had, and I'm glad.I pushed him onto the bed and slid down his body till I was face to face with his tight trousers."Fuck." His face beamed.I smirked.Yeah, that's right.He just had a way of responding to me that always made me feel powerful. Like he lost all control when he was around me, and I was determined to make him lose it even more tonight.He relaxed against the bed and helped me take off his trousers before spreading his legs again, and I got to suckin
GregGia was still as flabbergasted when she returned an hour later from wherever she went, and she stared at me for a while."You have successfully managed to traumatize me even more than our parents ever did."I can only imagine."I'm sorry."She sat on the kitchen counter and collected the cup of water I was about to drink."So who is he? A fling? Your boyfriend?"Boyfriend?I would love to call him that, but he hasn't asked me and probably wouldn't, so..."A... Situationship."She pursed her lips and stared, "So stuck in between, to be precise?""Kind of."She placed the glass on the counter when she finished and wiped her mouth. "Are you sure you want to do that, though?"I shrugged and leaned against the counter. "We like each other, so...""And you?" I asked when we both went silent."What?""Is anybody in the picture?""No. I'm still trying to get my life together."Right..."Besides, I won't keep it from you if I do get one later.""Hmm..."It was kind of a pact we made when
