PIERRE POVThe morning came too soon. Too sooner than I had actually anticipated. I was still drifting away on a fluffy cloud when the distance thumping began, and with every ticking second and steady rhythmic thump, I was slowly pulled back to the land of the living. A good moment passed before sleep fully was washed off the surface of my brain. The thump came downstairs, the music still pouring but not as harsh as it was last night. It was almost pleasant when compared to the savagery of the night before. Still groggy from hours of sleep, I extended my hand to the right, only to be met by cold linens that woke goosebumps all over me. I wasn’t surprised. I couldn’t be. But I did have a flicker of hope that maybe I would see the birth of a new day with him, maybe even sneak a quickie before driving to the estate. With a defeated sigh and a very sore body, I peeled my tired self out of the bed and sat on the bed, gathering my thoughts. My ass fuckin’ burns. I may need some cold wa
PIERRE POVThe so-called friendly match between the duo had to be the opposite of friendly.For the past few months, everything occurring between the two was a contest. I have no idea why they deemed it t themselves to take me as some sort of a trophy or a prize won at the end of the contest. And as much as it vexed me, I had no time to be angry because I was too busy trying to keep them from killing each other. I barely had time to bathe after breakfast, ‘cause I literally flew to the campus with the speed of light. I must have looked like a nutcase whooshing through the gates and heading to the courts, and true to Tony’s words, the entire court was packed. Everywhere I turned to look was a person, cheering. Of course, Poseidon had more fans than Sebastian for a lot of reasons.He was the leader of Z4. 2. He was pretty much more outgoing than Sebastian who preferred to be in the background almost every time. So yeah.I spotted the other guys seating in the front row, snacks surroun
POSEIDON POV I lost!Simple as that. Although I lost the lost match to Sebastian, I couldn’t help but shudder at the feeling of cold metal daggers that were slicing down my back. My worst fears seemed to be skitting to the front of my being, staring me in the face and laughng at me.It felt as though it wasn’t the match I lost; but a very important part of me.The big question was what?Me Ego? Pride maybe?To hell with pride. It didn’t put food in my tummy and it sure as hell broke all the beautiful things. So it might as well as get bruised to extinct. I sat in the middle of the basketball pitch and watched everyone going wild. I was the basketball captain; and I lost to a rookie who only spurred with the Z4. Great.But again, that wasn’t what was chaffing me from the inside. The turmoil inside of me was far greater than the insignificant loss I felt in my chest, expanding and filling up all the hollowness I never knew existed until this very moment. It was gut-wrenching. I b
PIERRE POVThe weekend at my mom’s had been phenomenal. I don’t know if it was the mere fact that I was no longer living there, well; technically, but something about the Saturday movie night in the small theatre room, popcorn, and lots of laughter seemed to be out of this world. Of course, we used to watch movies together while I was still living there, but right now, it was as if some extra masala had been added to the mix, making every second we spent together count. What made my heart gloom even further was when my dad called, and both he and mom talked. I had expected nothing but pure awkwardness between the two of them, considering the turn of events, but nope. Nothing like that. The conversation had been flowing, mom even took away my phone while giving him the tour of the house, stopped to greet Gabriel, and continued. It was as if they were old friends and they were reuniting after spending years apart.When Monday morning arrived, I was reluctant- in all senses of the word-
POSEIDON POV“I HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THAT DISGUSTING FAG AND STOP DRAGGING ME INTO HIS SHIT.”I hissed dangerously, the words tumbling down the tip of my tongue and leaving a trail of bitterness all inside of me. I glared into the acquisitive gaze of the headmaster, his nose just an inch from mine to a point where we shared breaths. Mine was rapid, enraged, and almost beastly.I could feel my blood rushing at an inhuman speed, leaving a trail of goosebumps to sheath my body like a second skin. “You have to come down, Young Master.” He smoothed, tapping the side of my arm gently, and silently begging me to release him. My jaw clenched, the video flashing inside of my brain like a tape recorder played at a slower pace.If only I can lay my hands on the fucker who filmed it, then had the guts to post it. I was going to yank his tongue from out his ass before making him an example of what happens to anyone who dares to hurt him. “I want that video taken off the forum as soon as yester
PIERRE POV“You can cry and let it all out…” Sebastian’s rich, but insanely smooth voice felt like a silk wash all over my goose-pimpled skin. I was still in a drastic state of shock, the happenstances only pouncing in my mind at a much more rapid pace than it had all happened. I remained glued in the passenger seat of his McLaren’s passenger side, cocooned by the warmth and serenity although the inside of me was in shreds, the effects of the storm after it wreaked havoc.It was as if some kind of a veil had been torn apart, a very gaping slit in the middle that bared everything out. All the pain I have ever known came tumbling out of that slit along with those words I heard straight from his mouth.DISGUSTING FAG. I knew I had preferred to be his dirty little secret but that… That was extreme. “I’m okay.” My voice was nothing like my usual, it was carnal gruff that rumbled from deep inside of me, mirroring the turmoil inside of me. It was a cross between a pained wail and something
PIERRE POV“NO WAY!” a squeal laced with glee escaped my lips, the small straw that was clamped between the muscles of my mouth dropping into the glass of drink in front of me.“Yes, way.” Sebastian merely smiled before giving his head a shake to clear the thick locks of hair from his face, then continued toying with the chips on a plate in front of him.“Like ever? Not even once?” I couldn’t believe it. This tale he was telling me; it had to be straight from the kid’s book. There was no way that Sebastian had never dated, and the idea of him being pure and untouched was utterly absurd.“Why is it so hard for you to believe that I haven’t dated?” He dropped the chips from his fingers before bracing his arms on the table, pinning his permeating gaze on me. I found myself shifting uncomfortably as he just looked, waiting for a response. “I mean look at you…” I took a sip of my soda to calm my nerves before continuing, “What?” He arched a brow, “You are all things handsome. Any boy an
PIERRE POVIt’s amazing how other people’s aura could turn darkness into light. Their energy exudes this kind of warmth that makes you feel enough, welcomed, needed, and very much wanted.I'd never spent much time around Sebastian before; even when I was still serving in their lounge, we had these little disturbed moments where I would just stand with him for a few seconds before Poseidon came and wreaked havoc around us. But after spending a whole day with him, his undivided attention on me and me only, I knew for a fact that he wasn't like any other people I have met before. He wasn't like Z4. He was the odd one, the quiet one, the steady and trusted one. He made me so comfortable that I even forgot about the pain and everything that had transpired. So unlike Poseidon. By the time we decided to leave his other secret hideout, night had long fallen pulling darkness on its tail. It was after 8 when we arrived outside the frathouse and right in the driveway was Poseidon’s black Audi
