Adonis
Fuck!
I was officially done with events. I had already attended way too many in a given period of time and for me, this was fucking enough. Brooke had introduced me to a couple of people at the party, and their attention was literally arrested, making them attack me with thousands of fucking annoying questions.Torture.I would have been better off sitting in some chair all night and getting to watch Leilani in the ocean waves, wet and soft. But I wouldn’t even get that chance because some girls might get it in their head to skinny dip in front of me. Or worse, try to strike a conversation.But instead, now, I was sitting outside a wooden cabin some distance away from the main party, music filtering in the air as the salty twinge from it flirted with my skin. What was I fucking doing sitting out here tonight? I was here because of Brooke.She had become quite a handful overnight like she seemed to be bubbling with so much energy that it almost seemed liAdonis She picked the filled glasses and turned back to face me, walking forward and to me with one of the glasses outstretched.I kept staring at her in silence, ignoring the wine.She blinked. “You don’t want a drink?”I arched an eyebrow at her. “We’re not here because of what I want, Brooke,” I took a step closer and she tentatively stepped back. “We’re here because of what you want. And when you’re trying to seduce someone, don’t back away.”Her face paled as she realized she had stepped away from me.“Can you tell me what you want? Right now?” I asked, my voice low, my gaze boring down into hers.She was barely breathing. Her eyes lowered from mine, black lashes skimming her high cheekbones as she nervously licked her bottom lip. “I…” The wine glasses shook in her tight grip. Then she gathered herself and looked up to meet my eyes again. “I want you. I want to have sex with you.”I saw the determination in her dark eyes and the courage she was tryi
Leilani “Is this private enough?” Adonis looked at my face buried in his chest, as I greedily inhaled his scent. He had carried me up in his arms away from the party to some place along the shore. I realized that being in his arms again, was really all I wanted all this time. To have him touch me, kiss me, fuck me. I wanted my daily dose of Adonis Ace Giles and I was fucking starved. In response to his question, I raised my face away from his deliciously warm skin to take a look at where we were. I noticed that the sound of the waves hitting the shore seemed louder here. And here, the shore was full of rocks, pebbles and a couple of boulders. It was sparsely lit by the moonlight, it’s soft glow reflecting off the rippling surface of the ocean. It was perfect. And even better, it was deserted. “It’s okay,” I said casually. He moved closer to a big rock and placed me on it, the col
Leilani I emptied the contents of my water bottle and tossed it away, my feet pounding away at the treadmill. Chase lunged after the bottle excitedly, his strong body rippling with each agile movement. “So, there are a lot of appointments lining up.” Brooke droned on from the screen of my tab propped up and facing me. “Ever since the announcement of DELEILAH being a partner of the event, more clients are rushing in like a flood from all corners. Our competitors have their fangs and talons out and every big shot of the fashion industry has their eyes on us. There’s a lot of things to be sorted.” “Sort the appointments out.” I panted, my ponytail flying behind me. “Leave the weekends free.” Chase dropped the bottle on the floor by the treadmill and barked up at me. I smiled down at him and he wagged his tail eagerly, eager for some attention. Neil was supposed to be back later tomorrow morni
Adonis Five Four Three Two One. With a big exhale, I placed the barbell back into place, feeling my tense and strained muscles relax as the weight of the barbell moved away from my hold. I panted and sat back up, shaking the damp tips of my hair out of my eyes. I could fucking feel feminine eyes following every movement I make. I did not really mind, but it was fucking annoying somehow. I mopped the beads of sweat along with my temple with a towel and got up to my feet clad in black gym shoes. Music blared in my ears from my air-pods as I grabbed the black boxing gloves at my side, ready to punch the fucking living shit out of some unlucky punching bag right now. My need to punch things burned like a wildfire inside my veins. I did not have to be pissed sometimes to actually itch to punch something to oblivion till my
Adonis I had just gotten to the unlucky punching bag when I heard footsteps hurrying after me. I closed my eyes briefly. They fucking followed me. “Adonis! Why are you so fucking grumpy today?” I heard Jade exclaim as she appeared right in front of me, her thin eyebrows raised and arms crossed under her breasts. Cole appeared soon after, giving me a playful punch on the shoulder. “When a man’s sexually frustrated, it’s always like that.” The shit-eating grin on his face made it obvious he really enjoyed trying to rile me up. My eyes moved to nail him down, nearly incinerating him on the cold spot. “I’m not sexually frustrated.” “Back off, Cole.” Jade gave him a backward slap on the chest and frowned at him. Then she moved closer to me, her frown vanishing as an excited smile suddenly formed on her lips. “Guess what?” “You finally completed the architectura
By the time it was noon, I was at Jade’s hotel suite, standing at the entrance and staring stiffly at the people milling around inside her place. I could see a few men, like five or so but they were predominantly women. Fucking women in dresses several sizes too small, too tight, and very suggestive. With heels, of course. Jade and Cole fucking tricked me into coming here. I felt heat starting to rise slowly from the depths of my mind. I was pissed as fuck. What the actual fuck? “What the fuck is this, Jade?” I asked, feet firmly rooted to the spot, standing imposingly like a harsh, deadly boulder in the doorway, dwarfing Jade who stood right next to me. Cole had already slithered in to join the ladies, that sneaky cunning motherfucker. Jade looked up at me, a wide grin stretching her lips. Her green eyes were twinkling with fucking triumph. “This is the little lunch hangout, Adonis. What were y
Adonis I love you, Adonis Ace Giles. I stared at the text for a moment. The fuck? Now she’s desperate enough to bring love into this obsession of hers? From the way things were going, I got a distinct feeling that Tina was not going to give up any time soon. I was really not bothered about her obsessing over something she would never get, but it was annoying that after all this time, she still was not giving up. She was the most persistent out of all the women trying to force themselves on me. I was about to shove the phone back into my pocket when something struck my mind like a thunderbolt. How the fuck did I not notice it immediately? I brought my phone back up to stare at the picture again. Carefully this time. And my suspicion was confirmed. The Jeep she was sitting naked in. The fucking Jeep. From the d
Adonis The twins had persistently stuffed me full with Jade’s chicken soup and now they were starting to move on to other courses. I could see Cole’s eyes glaring at me, green with envy as he mindlessly chewed on something in his mouth. The woman curled around him was no longer by his side, probably off to find a better company.To think of it, I noticed that Cole did not even have one fucking taste of Jade’s soup, which was weird, since he dug into the feast first. Jade herself barely ate a thing, she was busy bustling all over the place, in and out the main doors with her chaotic energy.And all of a sudden, I heard her voice exclaim, “Leilani!”My head whipped up immediately, as did a couple of others, as I looked towards the door, wondering how the fuck Leilani could even be here. Then I finally saw Jade appear through the doorway, her arm wrapped around the arm of another woman.With glistening long brown hair with baby curls framing her face, pretty honey-c
Leilani‘Iris, I’m in love with you.’Those words rang loud and clear in my mind as I hurried as far away from there as I could manage with tears pouring down my reddened face. I had heard their whole conversation. And he had said those words. Those words that I was dying to hear him say, those words that meant so much, so much to me… he had finally said them.But to another woman.My heart was physically searing up with pain at this point, and I just could not see the point of life anymore. After all of this, everyone left me all alone and abandoned. He is leaving. With Iris. I would never see him again. The memories were all I had, and they were like scalding hot coals burning everywhere they landed on my mind. It did not matter now that Freya was dead and Brooke was in jail. I had lost everything.They won.I stumbled out a set of glass doors, and out into the open, only to
One week later.Leilani“I am so glad that you are well enough to leave the hospital, now.” Belle smiled at me eagerly, as mom and Ashley packed my stuff into bags so they could take me home, since I just got discharged. My face was permanently set in a flat expression, and I just stared at the wall like I have done for days now, not bothering to say a word in response.Ashley muttered to Belle. “She has not said a word to anyone ever since she saw Adonis in the ICU. I am worried about her mental health.”I could not bear listening to them talk about me like I was not even there, so I got up from the bed and moved out of the ward, randomly walking around hallways and down stairs like a fucking lunatic. I lifted my hand to wipe the tears which now poured out randomly, anytime they liked. The first time I thought I was experiencing heartbreak, it’s nothing compared to what I was feeling now.
LeilaniI shot up from the bed with a gasp, eyes flinging wide open while the heart monitor began to beep drastically. I recognized that I was on a hospital bed, but my soul, my mind and heart were going insane to know what had happened to Adonis. I had collapsed like a pathetic weakling instead of helping Iris get him out of the wreck.“Leila?”I tore off the tubes connected to my hands and flung my legs off the bed, feeling the hospital gown drag down against my skin. I was hurriedly disconnecting all the shit that had been attached to me, while someone kept calling my name. “Leila?! Nurse! She’s awake- Leila!” I got up from the bed, but I was hit with a wave of dizziness so hard that I fell back on the bed, unable to even see clearly. Arms held me, and I tried to resist, muttering hoarsely. “A-Adonis… I need to see…”“She’s still disoriented. Pass me the
AdonisThe hostess was standing in the middle of the race track, a harsh white spotlight bathing down on her as she placed one hand on her hip, her skimpy leather clothes shining under the light. She let out a wicked grin, “READY!”The crowd had simmered down, eagerly watching, hundreds of eager eyes straining to catch every tiny bit if the action. Engines revved. Breaths slowed. Gloved hands gripped harder. Boots inched down on the accelerator. Adrenaline spiked. Heartbeats pounded. She raised her other hand, holding a red flag, slowly bracing her legs in stripper heels apart for more balance. My eyes followed her movements like a hawk, ready to fly the moment she brought that flag down.The race track was some kind of very dangerous road with sharp bends and ugly surprises, and like any illegal race, there was no fucking way to monitor whatever the racers do once they speed out of here.
I spread my arms and shifted to shield Cora away completely. “You’ll have to hurt me first, Freya.”She sighed. “Neil. I thought we already made some progress in our relationship as mother and son? Why are you taking her side after all that we discussed? Remember, you came to me, broken and destroyed and I welcomed you with open arms and helped you deal with all these problems-”“Problems that you planned?!” I yelled, the tendons on my neck straining against my skin. “You just fucking murdered someone right in front of me! So, it was you all along. How could you be so disgusting to make a sex tape of anyone, no matter who they are! How could you give Tina, a fucking psychopath, the power to destroy my honeymoon and shoot some shit up my neck? I thought Tina was crazy, but you are a fucking lunatic who should be locked up in that hospital forever!” I snarled. Cora whispered behind me, &ldqu
NeilI had experienced the three stages of severe emotional devastation these past few weeks. Pain. Sadness. Rage. But tonight, I just realized that I had slipped into a stage that was more destructive than the other three combined. And that was Numbness. I had gone cold. My heart had finally stopped feeling.From Leilani. To Adonis. To my fucking mother. They were all monsters, and I knew what to do now. I had gone back to Freya after I saw the sex tape, and she had gladly welcomed me… only to find out now that she orchestrated all of this in the first place. She was a fucking monster. I had struggled with accepting that fact all my life, and now it had forcefully sunk into my brain like lead.The night was bleak. Leilani was still missing. And I have been walking for fuck knows how long, with my hands buried in the pocket of my sweats, face thrown back to stare at the darkness above, my shirt drenched with cold sweat. Cor
He moved back from the camera to reveal a room, and in the middle of that damn room, was Leilani… tied to a fucking chair. My heart thudded in anger and rage as I saw Kygo, my old rival from when I was still an illegal underground racer, hunched over Leilani’s body, pressing a gun into her cleavage with a sick smile on his damn fucking face. Kygo yelled, “Come get her from me if you’re man enough, Ace. Try anything fucking funny and I will rape this bitch and send you the video. The way we almost did back then with Lily. Remember?”He laughed.“You fucked my woman, right? Iris, if you are there, know that your pussy is going to be mine whether you want it or not, bitch. When I get you, I will chain you down in a cage like my fucking dog and fuck you like the slut you are!” My eyes darkened as I whipped my face to look at Iris in shock. How the fuck does Kygo know Iris? And why does she not look confused?
LeilaniWhen I opened my eyes, I was well aware of my pathetic situation even before the dark and miserable appearance of my surroundings reminded me. I had been abducted by Adonis’ biological father. The man that reeked of pure evil. I slowly straightened up in the corner of the room that I have been thrown in, shaking my head to clear the headache that was starting to grow.I did not even have the strength to panic.“Oh, the princess is awake!” A male voice said and I jolted with a startle, gasping lightly. My widened eyes looked around the room again to discover that it was not empty. Adonis’ father -or Saint, fuck, I could not even call his name- was sitting on a dark king-sized chair at the other end of the room, smoking a big wrap of weed. The room had dim lighting, but I could see the outlines of his terrifyingly familiar face, and the white smoke curling out of his mouth.“Is t
The detective opened another file. “Let us take a look at Ms. Freya Declan's case study. Now, we shall agree that this woman has a history of being violent towards both Adonis and Cora. There are records of her hiring thugs to harm these people and their properties. Again, this woman has a lot of influence. Enough influence that she escaped punishments for her actions for a very long time, until she ended up in a hospital. And with this influence, she was able to make a mysterious visit to Dubai… and then left immediately, as if she was trying to distance herself from all the troubles that would start popping up after she left.“Again, she then mysteriously communicated with skilled armed men, to break her out of the hospital even when she could have easily manipulated her way out. Then she went into hiding. Disappearing the same way Tina disappeared when she was wanted. We have gone into very in-depth analysis of her activities and transactions, a
