The last word seems like a dagger that stab right through my heart. 'he ever wanted.'

Lucy is still staring at me intently while she's sipping her wine.

"How do you feel about it?" She asked out of curiosity.

"I believed him!" I uttered firmly.

"Yes my heart believed him, but my head does not. But I trust him! Like a Loving Girlfriend should do, should I?" I murmured, convincing myself mostly. Lucy was just nodding her head.

After like half hour our food arrived. Lucy's attention diverted to the food that was served in front of us.

"This is so mouth watering! I just realized I missed our food back home," she declared. She was savoring the first bite of her paella. I chuckled at her facial reactions.

.........

Stavros' POV.

I was awoken by a vibrating sound. I opened my eyes, and it's already dark outside. How long was I sleeping? I felt that vibration again. Then, I realized, it's my phone. Someone's calling me.

Before I could say something, Zandros is already rambling.

    I brushed my hair neatly while whistling with rhythm. I put on a white, long-sleeve shirt with the rolled up sleeve. Two buttons were undone and paired it with black pants. Tucked the shirt in and topped it with a black leather jacket. I wore my silver sleek watch. I checked the time its 8 PM. I stuffed my phone in my pocket and made my way out of the house. Taylor is busy wiping the windshield of my black BMW when I walked in the garage. "Where to Sir?" "Mailov's villa, Taylor." Been there many times so Taylor knows the place. "Which car would like to ride in Mr. Demakis?" He asked as he stopped working and stood to face me. "That BMW would do," I grinned as I skim down the black BMW I8. One of my favorites sports car. Taylor likes driving it too. He grinned when I said the BMW. "Hop in Sir," he said excitedly as he opened the car rear door. Not long, we are entering the driveway to the villa. Paparazzis are swarming outside the gate trying to get some photos on what's going

    "Zandross," Krystina purred. I used to get turned on when she gives me that voice. And in an instant, she kissed me on the lips. I felt disgusted, but I shrugged it off because I don't want to embarrass her. "Hello Krystina," I said nonchalantly. "Oh, this is my friend Angela Smith. She's from New York too," she introduced her in her sexy voice. "Stavros Demakis," I said extending my hand. Which she took it smiling broadly, batting her long false lashes. "So the Famous Stavros Demakis, finally I met you!" She exclaimed, and she lightly squeezed my hand. You know what that does mean. Why all of a sudden I got scary with these hot chicks? Should I celebrate, right? My charms still working effectively. "Famous huh?" I said. Trying to sound casual. "Let's all go downstairs and have fun!" Zandros exclaimed. "LETS THE PARTY BEGIN!!!!" Demetrio shouts out. The villa has its own bar and it's spacious. As we entered the bar, the people are already having a good time. There's a DJ busy

    "To Stavros, and to our Old Times!!.." Nicolas proposed a toast raising his beer. Everyone raises their glasses and drinks, "To Stavros!" they said in unison. And, it made a lot of clicking sounds. I raised my beer and made a toast and hoisted my beer in my mouth and took a drink. We chatted. Dance. Non-stop drinking. And, I lost track of how much vodka's I had. Laughing with the guys. Soon, Thomas, Andrew, and another guy joined in our conversation. Reminiscing the old time. How many troubles we were into? How many girls we banged? Jeeezz..We remembered these two hot girls who go to a different school and at the same time, I and Zandros bedded. Then, they found out and they fought like a mad cow. Zandros was laughing. Don't blame us, you know we are still young and immature. We used to compete how many girls we bedded in a week. Or compete who could bed the quickest on a certain girl. Those times... Some are already making out in every corner. While Krystina was still clinging l

    "One lie is enough to question all truths." - Anonymous ......... Stavros' POV I woke up feeling sticky with sweats, plus a throbbing headache, caused by a damn hangover. My eyes slowly open but closes it again, squinting couple times to adjust my vision with the sun rays flooding the room. I stirred when I felt a hand around my waist, legs intertwined, head on my chest. I remembered I saw Ali's face last night and I remember kissing her. But that's impossible! I move the head gently, her arms, and slowly untangling my legs out of hers, as I slowly get up. I winced when I felt a sharp pinching in my head. I looked back at the woman sleeping peacefully with disarrayed hair above her head and checked who is she? She had a dark brown hair like Alessandra, but shorter. Wait? "Krystina?" an audible gasp broke out my lips when realization dawns on me, hard. "Fuck!" I hissed inaudibly between clenched teeth. Shocked, stunned, bewildered, engulfed my whole being. As if on cue sh

    Krystina's POV "Damn you, Stavros!" I grit out frustratedly. If he thinks he can get away from me, sure he is nuts. I'm not just someone to messed with. No other girl who can love him the way I did. I'll do anything to win him, come what may! My eyes involuntarily darted to my phone. I took like five photos of him lying naked except his boxers on. He looks completely wasted. Then, few photos of me and him together. My head leaning on his chest and other position. A ghost of a wicked smile broke out on the corner of my lips. A smile of oncoming victory. Memories of our kisses last night flooded my brain. I kissed him and he kissed me back, I was so happy. Then, he mumbled something I can't comprehend. Then, he just suddenly dozes off. Urgh ... I was so fucking horny. So, I stormed off of his room and went to Andrew's room. As soon as I entered his room that asshole wraps his hands around my waist and kissed me like there's no tomorrow. He's not bad after all. Still head over hee

    GREECE BILLIONAIRES MOST-SOUGHT AFTER BACHELORS REUNITED! The tycoon Businessman Zandros Mailov threw a party at their villa and we spotted the famous and drop-dead gorgeous Stavros Demakis, with his other friends Eligible Bachelor, Nicolas Petropoulis and Demetrio Pallos, who owns the billion-dollar chains of hotels across the world. Below is a picture of Stavros and his friends. He already mentioned it to me about his friends. So that's Nicolas, Demetrio, and Zandros, as I ran my eyes through the photos. They all look handsome in their own way, but for me, Stavros stands out. I noticed the girls in the background, hot and sexy, obviously, if they were not celebrities, they were models. I felt a familiar twinge of jealousy in my chest. I shake it off. I believe Stavros will not cheat on me, I need to trust him. It was easy to say, seeing those photos, it's hard to stay positive. I need to trust him. "Holy moly, Ali! Your boyfriend is a celebrity and his friends are all yummy,"

    "Oh, I heard about the party. How did it go?" She asked which was surprising. What happened to my who-doesn't-care mom? "Fine, mom," I replied with a bored tone. I'm not going to start talking now. It's too late for her to involve in my life. She has all the years yet she put it all behind. "Well, my boy doesn't seem interested in sharing it with his mom," her casual innuendo as she chuckled softly. "And since when are you interested mom in my personal life?" I rebutted sarcastically. Recently, I used to just ignore it, but I'm not in the mood today. Sometimes, I'd think, are they really my parents? For my father, there's no explanation, I am the spitting image of him. "I'm sorry, honey. I shouldn't push it too far," she apologized as she sighed heavily. Lately, they are trying to win my affection. I love them no question about that. "Bye, mom, I'll see you tonight," I dismissed and hung up the phone. I can't help it. All my life I've been raised by my grandparents. Every mess

    Thank God, that headache is gone. I made my way back to my room and took a shower and got myself ready. I arrived at my grandfather's place around 7:35. My family is already in the living room waiting for me. Dramatic entrance as usual. "Oh, there's our boy," Theodore Demakis announced as I entered the big living room. He looks younger than his age. He's the epitome of a great grandfather and a businessman. "Papou," I said as I approached and gave him a manly hug. I loved him very much. He was my father and a mentor at the same time. "Oh, dear!" my sweet giagia said. She gave me the longest hug ever and gave me a peck on my cheeks just like a little boy. Only my giagia do that! "My favorite boy!!" she exclaimed excitedly, still smiling sweetly. "I know, giagia," I said, smiling back at her. I gave my dad and mom a hug too, with less affection, maybe just for politeness, after all, they are the reason why I was born. "The food is ready, let's all go to the dining room," giagia a

    "Thanks," I said as I handed it over to him, feeling disappointed. And as if he could read my mind."Mr. Demakis is on the phone so he can't pick you up himself." Pancho explained briefly."I understand Pancho!" I said, smiling at him reassuringly.We were on Lexington avenue. I felt bored. I looked in the rear mirror, and Pancho was fixed on driving. So, I fished my earphone from my purse and plug it in my ears.Plugging the earphone jack on my phone, and tap on my music.

    Or is it just because my feelings for her didn't change a bit? And, I'm being too sensitive. Taken by her completely and irrevocably."I love you, too," I mumbled acquisciently, barely audible. And her betrayal played in my head.I threw the phone on my bed, and walked briskly to the mini room.It is an open decent size room across the bed, with a gray L-shape settee and a white ottoman table, and two gray armchairs with round small table in between. Leaning against the clear glass wall, giving a good view of the backyard.I saw my food tray on the table, with a glass of orange juice, coffee, blueberry oatmeal, two brown toast, scrambled eggs, and bacons. I start digging my oatmeal, I realized I am famished.After finishing the food, I felt replete. I put the empty glass on the food tray, the plate and bowl, on top of each. I rose from my seat, with my coffee, and headed to my office. It is located downstairs.I met Luciana and Pancho as I was trudged down the stairs.They both look at

    I fished out my phone from my pocket, and saw two missed calls and messages. All from Alessandra. I closed my eyes, trying to ease the pain that starting to envelop in my heart. My hand involuntarily clenched around the sleek metal. My heart feels raw, humiliatingly betrayed. I felt like a sharp knife was being stabbed in my heart, and twisting it slowly painfully, over and over.And why the pain is always fresh?Can I just move on and not feel the pain?If only there's a way to stop this feeling."Damn! Dammit, Alessandra!! Arghh..." I groaned loudly.I chucked the phone on the bed in frustrations. I briskly walk back to the washroom, turn the tap on and splashes my face with cold water.I look in the mirror, and I see blue, cold piercing eyes with dots of red staring at me. Ruffled and crumpled hair, chopped lips, and dry skin. I looked messed, loser, defeated, betrayed, and deeply humiliated!Fuck!The scenario yesterday oscillated back in my head with that guy kissing my Alessandra

    Thank God, they both heard me.Lucy continued eating, my brother made his coffee."Where did you sleep last night, Carlos?" I asked out of curiosity, trying to break the deafening silence.Carlos looked at Lucy warily, and Lucy snapped her head in Carlos' direction. Then my brother looks back at me. Those two are definitely talking through their eyes. It's odd. Definitely strange.What have I been missing?"At the couch," he responded anxiously.I let out a sigh, and decided to ignore the curiosity nagging deep within me.So I just shrugged my shoulders.Honestly, I'm not in the mood to interrogate today.And knowing the two are both stubbborn, it's just gonna be a waste of breath."So how long will you be here?" I inquired. Not that I don't want him here. I'm just curious. He never likes to leave our country. He was forced when he went to university in Oxford."I have two businesses to attend. It may take four to five days to settle, and then I'll fly back to Spain," he explained brie

    "A single moment of misunderstanding is so poisonous, that it makes us forget the hundred lovable moments spent together within a minute." - Khushi throneAlessandra's POVI opened my eyes, and squinted, until my vision adjusted to the bright light as it flooded the room. I'm glad it's Saturday. My eyes involuntarily traveled to the clock, and it says eleven in the morning. I've slept longer today. Then, I remembered my brother and Lucy. He took care of Lucy last night. "Did he sleep here?" I wondered.I sprang out of my bed, and scrambled to the washroom. I washed my face then brushed my teeth in haste. I washed my mouth as quickly as possible, and put my toothbrush back in the holder. And without glancing on the mirror like I used to, I walk... rather run downstairs. I found Lucy sitting at the table comfortably, looking well and refresh. No traces of being ill last night."Good morning Lu!" I chirped gleefully as I made my way to the kitchen counter, straight at the coffee machine

    Stavros' POV.I was still pre-occupied about what happened today. The New York Times Magazines had finally agreed to stop publishing the story. But they can't retrieve those that already sold out, which is just fine, it will definitely die down."Knock. Knock..""Come in," I said.Andrea opened the door and walked in a few steps. "Is there anything you need Sir, if nothing, may I leave?""Yes, you may leave Andrea." I consented dismissively."Thank you and enjoy the rest of the night Mr. Demakis," then she left closing the door behind her.I decided to just go home and do the rest of my work. I stuffed all the documents, bunch of folders in my suitcase then stood up and head out.I was walking to the door when I saw Ali holding on Lucy's hand. I got worried, As I was about to push the door open, I saw a very tall, very handsome guy with lightly tanned skin, blue eyes smiling as he approaches them, looking at Alessandra adoringly and kissed her on the cheeks. I froze then quickly turne

    Krystina's POV.Shit! Shit!!!!!I slammed the magazines on the coffee table and got up walking back and forth in my living room at my penthouse in New York. I know Stavros is back here in New York.Shit!"This is not true. It can't be right. She can't fall in love because Stavros doesn't do love!" I screamed.I need to make a move or else I'll lose him forever. I've waited long enough. I can't be just a toy to him forever. I deserve a title. Krystina Demakis. Yes, it sounds right! I said grinning foolishly.I took my laptop and turned on. I type in Maria Alessandra De La Vega on the searched engine. There's not much of a picture of her. A few with her father and her mom. Her mom is breathtakingly beautiful. A famous model on her time, beauty, and brain.I groaned in frustrations. I turned my laptop off. "If you want to know something about someone, call a detective," I murmured. And, I know someone just perfect for this job. He already worked for me.That's when I needed a background

    Alessandra's POV.I was so tired today, but happy that Stavros let me work in my office. He argued at first, but gave in after. I know Mr. Hernandez was happy today because the meeting with the client went well. And, he had left home early today because it's his wife birthday. Another reason why I insisted on working in my office to help my boss more so he can get off early.Tonight I'll be spending with Lucy and my beloved brother. It's going to be fun. I mean it sarcastically. My brother is always brooding. He's no fun at all. I don't understand why and how my best friend falls for him.I started putting the files in the filing cabinet and be done for the day. I was done and walk back to my desk when I saw Lucy at the door. I took my purse and walked to the door."How's your day?" I queried not mindful enough of her."I was fine while ago, but now, I'm feeling lightheaded," she replied in a coarse voice.My head suddenly whipped to her, she does look pale.

    Stavros' POV.It's been three days since I was back from Greece. And, all I did was working, though Alessandra was working in my office except today, because Mr. Hernandez needs her, according to her. Although Mr. Hernandez was ok without her, but she insisted and argued with me. So, I let her work in her office today before she gets mad at me and that's the last thing I wanted her to feel about me.I had to find a way to make her work with me. I was thinking about hiring her as my Personal Secretary, but what am I gonna do with Andrea?I won't be able to see her tonight. She said she will make it up to Lucy. I can't wait for the weekend to have her in my house. I was so happy when I saw that look in her eyes as she looked around my house. Definitely she loved what she had seen. She's the very first girl I brought in my house, of course except Luciana.There's a knock in the door. "Come in!" I called out.Andrea walks in with a magazine in her hand. "What is it, Andrea?"
