“You have to wait, Ms. Halzen. Our manager has not arrived yet,” the receptionist of that cafe told Nina, which made her look down at her phone to check the time. “But it's already 6 in the evening and I had my interview with him at 5:30,” Nina said to her. Her interview was scheduled with the head manager of that cafe at 5;30 but she had been waiting for him for more than half an hour now but there was no sign of him or the interview. “I apologise but I have no further information regarding this, so you have to wait for our manager to come,” the receptionist uttered. Nina could do nothing so she just sighed heavily and went back to the sofa where she was sitting before and again started waiting for the manager to come. Customers started leaving one by one as the evening started wearing the cloak of the dark night. After almost three hours of waiting and continuously asking about that manager's arrival, Nina got the response that the manager was not going to come today due to some p
“You would surely end up dying in my hands one night, Ms. Halzen,” hearing those words getting whispered in her ear by that masked man in her ear, Nina snapped her head in his direction only to find his dark brown eyes peering at her and now her suspicion confirmed who he was….. Rican Alfanso….. Nina was frozen till her core. She couldn't believe her eyes that it was him. That she had just seen him taking someone's life so brutally. His entire face was covered with a black mask, except for his eyes and forehead. Dark and small locks of his jet black hair were falling on his forehead and all of this was enough for her to recognise him but still she tried to prove herself wrong because she didn't want to believe that it was really him. Her hands were trembling in terror but she still gathered her courage and lifted one of her hands. Without taking her watery eyes away from his, Nina extended her quivering hand towards his face to remove his mask but before she could touch his mask, she
“Stay with me please. I am afraid of being alone in the dark,” hearing her words, he gritted his teeth and spun around to face her.“You are not afraid of seeing me kill someone in the dark but you are afraid of being left alone in the dark. Really?” he seethed out at her, snatching his arm back from her hold. What did she think of him? That she would be able to trap him in her fake web of innocence, just like she had trapped his nephew, Cain? He had encountered countless people like her in his life and he knew exactly what they wanted from people like him.“Well, it depends on the situation and person to person,” Nina replied, deepening his scowl.“Wait, let me explain. See I saw you killing someone so I should be afraid of you that you might kill me too but I am not afraid of you because I know you are not going to kill me,” she uttered, confidently which made him arch his eyebrows at her.“And what makes you believe that I am not going to kill you?” he spat back, curious to know he
“Where the fuck you were?” hearing Cain shouting, the happiness in Nina's gaze faded. She even shuddered in her place because of the tone he used with her. “And why the fuck you have turned your phone off?” Cain raised his voice even more at her. The poor girl flinched, on the edge of tearing up because he had never talked to her like this ever before. Besides, she despised when someone talked to her rudely, especially her closed ones. It made her feel extremely hurt and bad. “I didn't…” “You didn't do what?” He shut her up while tightening his grip around her arm which made Nina hiss in pain at his aggressiveness. Even her eyes glossed. “I had to leave from here to pick you up but when I reached there, you didn't even try to fucking wait for me? Let alone wait, you didn't even try to call or text me for once to inform me that you are coming here on your own?” he seethed out at her, sounding enraged while not even giving her the chance to explain herself. Rican, who was sitting i
‘I need to tell you something really very important….’ he read her text which made him frown. Emptying the entire content of his glass in one gulp, he waited for her to tell him about her important thing as he saw her typing. ‘At least you could try to show some politeness to me here on chat by replying to my messages…’ that was what he got in the name of her important something which made him clench his jaw. This girl had fallen in love with fucking troubling her and he was so going to kill her one day for that. But from where the fuck she got his number?‘Your dad gave me your number as I texted him and told him that you gave me lift today but I forgot to say thanks to you for it, so could he give your number to me and he gladly gave it to me…,’ he read her explanation on how she got his number. Fucking weird creature. Rican was about to block her number as he got done with her and had no intention of reading more of her weird messages which were annoying the life out of him when
Nina was getting ready for her job interview when her phone started ringing. She grabbed her phone and a smile formed on her face, seeing Riccardo's name flashing on it. With a wide smile on her face, she picked up his call.“A very good morning, Mr senior Alfanso,” she wished him and heard him chuckling on the other side of the phone call. “Good morning, my child. How is your health now?” she heard him asking her. Last night when she called him to get Rican's number, she told him that she was not feeling well and witnessing him still remembering about it filled her heart with more warmth for him. How lucky their children were that they got blessed with loving parents like Riccardo and Aniya.“I am completely fine now. Thankyou for asking. Are you and Mrs Alfanso alright?” She asked him back. “Yes, we both are fine. I hope I haven't disturbed you by calling at this moment,”“No, it's completely fine,” she replied to him, beaming.“Actually I called you to know about your health and
“It’s so damn funny for you to moan in front of so many men like a damn fucking wanton, isn't it?” he roared at her while gripping her arms vigorously. His glowering gaze was glaring down at her. Nina took a while to understand the meaning behind his words and why exactly he said them and when she understood what he actually meant, her heart felt a clenching pain. She never let anyone’s words hurt her so easily but hearing him calling her a wanton, it hurt and angered her a lot. “There were dozens of men who were present around you and their fucking eyes were all over you but you were moaning and doing such fucking things in front of them with no worry and care? How pathetically careless you want to prove yourself more now?” He raised his voice more at her. Rage was searing inside his veins by recalling how she was moaning while grabbing her fucking butts in front of so many men. Instead of feeling embarrassed, it had angered him a lot, especially witnessing how she again dared to te
“Apologise to me first for saying all those things to me,” Nina uttered to him but hearing her words, his grip on the steering wheel tightened whereas his glare hardened at that weirdly fearless and stubborn creature in front of him.“You do remember that I am the one who is doing you a favour by giving you this lift?” He snapped at her. Nina scowled at him.“Did I ask you to do this favour on me?” She retorted back which made him clench his jaw. “You certainly did a little while ago,” her scowl deepened, hearing his words.“And for your precious kind of information, it was before you called me a damn fucking wanton,” she argued back. He gritted his teeth. How fucking much she was capable of argue with him? It was impossible to defeat her in any kind of verbal fight.“So if you want me to take your favour, apologise to me for calling me a want first, Mr Alfanso,” she uttered to him, like she was the one who was doing a favour on him by taking a lift from him.“Really? If that's the w
