MIA’S POV

“No, when I said prison, I don’t mean the literal meaning of a prison. You know we are talking about your books, and that’s what you decided to use as a figurative term,” I explained while Cole ogled at me in silence. His eyes were like twin searchlights, probing for any hint of deceit. The intensity of his gaze made my skin crawl, and I could feel a bead of sweat trickling down the back of my neck. “When I said prison, I meant when I was locked home with sickness and I couldn’t leave my house.” I forced a tense smile, the corners of my mouth trembling with the effort.

Cole joined me in smiling, though his smile seemed hesitant, almost uncertain. His lips twitched as if he was trying to decide whether to believe me or not. Then he nodded his head, and I felt a wave of relief wash over me, though it was tinged with a lingering tension that refused to dissipate. What would I have done if Cole had figured out that I was an ex-convict? The fear of exposure clung to me like a s

    MIA’S POVFinally, I got away from Cole. It had been such a crazy rollercoaster of emotions with him. He said he was going to take me out somewhere the next day if I didn’t feel alright by then, but one thing was sure: I was never going to heal from the pain of losing my baby before I could even meet her. That kind of pain isn’t something a simple outing can fix.I climbed the stairs, my heart dropping with each step, my legs slightly weak and trembling. The weight of grief pressed down on me, making each movement feel like trudging through thick, wet cement. I hadn’t even had dinner, and my stomach was growling, but the gnawing hunger was nothing compared to the ache in my chest. All I wanted was some tranquility, a moment of peace to retreat into bed, hoping that sleep might provide some temporary relief from the relentless torment of my thoughts.As I reached the top of the stairs, the hallway stretched before me like an endless tunnel, dimly lit by the soft, flickering glow of th

    MIA’S POV“I just feel restless,” I stated, my voice barely above a whisper, the words heavy with unspoken emotions. “Do you know what? Can we take a drive to the place where you wanted to take me?” I added quickly, desperation lacing my tone, hoping the night air would offer some respite from the crushing weight on my chest.Cole looked at me intently for a moment, his gaze piercing through the darkness, searching my eyes as if trying to read the chaos within. His presence was steady, a silent pillar amidst my crumbling world. If there was anything I wanted, it was the cold night breeze to glaze my face, the tranquility of the night to calm my racing thoughts.“Okay, I’m unable to sleep as well, so I don’t mind,” Cole shrugged, his voice a soothing balm against the raw edges of my nerves. “Give me a second to get my keys,” he added, and I nodded vehemently, the eagerness in my gesture betraying my need for escape.Cole turned to leave for his room but then halted, casting a glance b

    LYDIA’S POV “Where have you been?” Emma asked as soon as she met me in the corridor. Her voice was sharp, cutting through the thick silence that had settled in the hallway. “Nowhere, I was just spending time with a friend,” I lied quickly, my voice barely steady. The woman wouldn’t cease to bug me as though I was her child, her constant prying like a relentless storm battering my defenses. Emma looked at me silently, her eyes narrowing with suspicion. She was wrapped in her purple silk night robe, the fabric clinging to her slender frame and shimmering under the dim corridor lights, casting a soft, mysterious glow around her. The color suited her, enhancing the ethereal quality of her presence, but it also made her seem more formidable, like a queen surveying her kingdom. “So he is in the room alone, right?” I quickly chipped in, not wanting her to digress. I could feel the weight of her gaze, each second of silence stretching into an eternity. “Yes, he’s alone in the room. I was

    LYDIA’S POVMy mind raced with possibilities, each more unlikely than the last. All of a sudden, I heard a subtle sound. I paid attention to it, straining my ears to catch every nuance. It was a soft splashing sound coming from the direction of the bathroom. Joshua was taking his bath.I smiled, the corners of my mouth lifting with a mischievous glee. The thought of him stepping out of the shower, water droplets clinging to his tanned skin, sent a flutter of excitement through me. I could almost see it: his muscles glistening in the dim light, steam rising from his body like an aura. I knew he was going to come out looking even more hot and sexy, and the fact that he didn’t know I was in the room was going to put a shock on his face. My pulse quickened at the thought, my body tingling with anticipation. The room seemed to close in around me, the air thick with the promise of what was to come.I turned and picked up Joshua’s pillow, feeling the soft, worn fabric beneath my fingertips.

    MIA’S POV“This is so beautiful,” I said, my legs sinking into the sands, the grains warm and fine against my skin. My eyes were still gawking at the beauty before us. It was an ethereal view, one that seemed almost otherworldly in its perfection.“Yeah, it sure is,” Cole said, standing beside me. His presence was a comforting constant in the serene surroundings.There was a quiet and peaceful ambience that the place brought, a gentle breeze that caressed our skin, carrying with it the fresh, salty scent of the ocean. The air was cool and crisp, filling our lungs with every breath. We sat on the bonnet of Cole’s car, the metal warm beneath us as we enjoyed the view. Despite the peace, my mind was anything but calm. Christine was the only thing I could think about, her memory piercing through the tranquillity like a dagger.“Do you miss someone?” Cole asked suddenly, his voice breaking through my thoughts like a soft yet insistent nudge.I turned to him abruptly, my eyes wide with shoc

    MIA’S POV“What do you mean?” I asked, my heart pounding even harder, the curiosity and concern mixing into a potent cocktail of emotions.Cole didn’t speak immediately. He remained reclined, his posture relaxed yet tense, as if a heavy weight pressed down on him. He avoided eye contact, staring off into the distance where the waves met the horizon. The rhythmic sound of the ocean filled the silence between us, each crash of the waves echoing the turmoil within him. His chest rose and fell with deep, deliberate breaths, the kind taken when one is bracing themselves to unearth long-buried pain.“She left me when I was just a child,” he began, his voice low and thick with emotion. The words seemed to struggle their way out of his throat, each one laced with a bitterness that hinted at years of repressed sorrow. “The only thing I remember about her is her eyes.” He paused, and I could see his throat working as he swallowed hard, his Adam’s apple bobbing. “Each day passes, and I forget he

    MIA’S POVThe atmosphere in the car was thick with tension and unspoken emotions. I felt a strange mix of anxiety and adrenaline coursing through my veins as Olivia joined me, her presence a steady anchor amidst the storm of thoughts swirling in my mind.“Marcus came here?” I asked, my voice edged with cold steel as I glanced at Olivia. The leather seat creaked under me as I shifted slightly, trying to absorb the weight of the information she had just delivered through a terse text message. My knuckles whitened as I gripped the steering wheel, my mind racing with the implications of Marcus’s visit.“Yes, yes he did,” Olivia confirmed, nodding slowly. Her eyes flickered with concern, a silent testament to the gravity of the situation. The air in the car felt thick, tinged with the scent of leather and the faintest hint of Olivia’s floral perfume—an oddly jarring contrast to the serious tone of our conversation.A bitter smirk crept onto my face, tinged with a twisted sense of satisfact

    Authors POV Mia was in her room the next morning. She was pondering on her encounter with her supposed arch enemy, John. She sat on the bed, feeling much better than she felt the other night.The flashback of how John came so close to her yesterday stuck to her brain. It was a feeling that she couldn’t explain, just like genuine love, but she didn’t think it was love, probably immense disgust.Her hands wrapped around her chest, she sat on the bed silently and also strayed her thoughts to the new bride, or rather old wife as she claimed. The colossal part of Mia felt she overreacted about the whole situation. Why was she even angry? Was she married to Him or was he entitled to telling her about his past life? Irrespective of this incongruent thought of hers, she still felt bad, or rather angry.“Good day, ma’am”. A voice popped from outside which was accompanied with a knock on the door. It was the new cook “Yes, please come in” The cook came in with a tray in his hand. It had the

    My heart raced so fast when Lucifer walked into the room. Thankfully, before he walked in, I collected Rogers hoodie and wore. I was sure he saw him when he came in and that’s why he came to my room. Lucifer never visited me so late at night, so the red flag was very glaring.I managed to convince him and he left the room not so suspicious. Thanks to God that my ears are very sharp and I heard the creaking floor boards as he approached. I guess God was on my side too.“That was a close one” I sighed with my hand pressing my chest after he left. Rogers who hid behind the curtains also came out.“You need to leave now!!” I snapped at him as he tried grabbing my arm romantically.“ and why should I?” He held my cheeks and tried kissing me but I tossed him aside.“Don’t do that again… please” he dragged and looked at me sternly. I looked back at him and held my breathe. A little bit of fear gripped me as I remembered what I had seen in his house. The drugs I saw made me a little terrified

Good day Chap, you must be Jose ain't it?"I queried and squatted down to his level. He stared at me befuddled, but then I was smiling at him. He had a clear face and did have semblance with his father."Yes I'm Jose, how do you know my name, Mister?" He questioned with a childish voice. His left eye was slightly closed. I was about to answer, when there was a thunder clap.I looked upwards and the clouds where forming and sure a heavy rain was about wetting the soil."nada de qué preocuparse, chico (Nothing to worry about boy)" I said in Spanish. I scoffed and placed my hand on his face. " Jose, con quién estás hablando? (Jose who are you talking to?)" A feminine voice resounded from behind.

Carl was also invited but he hadn't arrived then."Just wait for Carl, there is something important I have to discuss and share with everyone." I said while Brad folded his hand gloating at me.The whole pack members were gathered and itching to hear what I had in store. Usually, I always did the listening but this time, doing the speaking did come with some ecstatic feeling."I don't have the whole fucking day Alina, you either speak now or I will waltz out of here."Brad bawled pointing his hand at me. My hands were now folded."Calm down Brad, she has never asked for permission to speak so give her this one chance"Lady Macbeth said. She seized a moment with my glare. We gaped at each other and she nodded first with a smile and blinked her eyes for about half a minute."Okay then" Brad said and sat back on his seat.

    "I Armnado Luca, this day reject you, Elsa Roland as my mate" These were the words of Armando, my mate or rather my Ex mate now. It was my twentieth birthday and everything was going smoothly before this happened. Ironically, the party was hosted and organized by Armando unknown to me that he had a hidden agendum. Tears filled my eyes on hearing this and I stared deeply into his eyes and I saw no remorsefulness in him but rather he looked all serious." Armando, what is this, you are joking with me right? '' I playfully said and touched his arms as he was used to playing silly pranks on me and so i thought it was one of them. But unfortunately, my thought was not it and so it just remained my thought alone and not his."I am very serious Elsa. This is not a joke" He sternly uttered to me. My eyes became watery and my breathe ceased for some seconds. How was it even possible that Armando who had only shown me love would do this to me publicly. He was actually holding a microphone when

    " You stand there and tell me you are sorry?" I bellowed. I brought the knife very close to his neck. He stayed there and moved not. "I do not care what you want to do with me. I know whatever comes my way from you, I really do deserve it. I was a son of a bitch and treated you like scum. You did everything to please me, but I was too stupid to have seen it." He voiced with a shaky voice that passed so many emotions, like a strummed guitar. His hands are still pointing downwards. His eyes quirked a second. I glared at him for seconds. My hands trembled as I had a very strong grasp on the knife. My face contorted and my eyes narrowed. All I felt in me was total bitterness. I really felt the urge to stab him but I was trying so hard to resist the demon." I just feel like killing you Rogers!!!! " I growled and placed the side of the sharp knife to his throat. I pressed slowly, but then it tipped on his neck. Suddenly blood started dripping little by little. I gnashed my teeth and wa

    "When we have cookies, I play a game with her", Zelda said smiling and also relaxed on a seat." Game? What game is that?" I inquired, quite eager to find out what it was. My hands were laid on the table and eyes fixed on Mrs Zelda."It's a kind of questioning and truth" she said." Do you mean truth or dare?" "No, not that. Now the question and truth session is slightly different from truth or dare. In this game, before you pick a Cookie, someone would ask you a question and you have to be truthful to the core to answer the questions asked or the God of cookies is gonna take the cookies away." Her mom said and I chuckled." Disclaimer, Its just fiction and it's just some fun thing I do with her . She think it's true, so I use it to get answers from her when she lies to me because she loves cookies so much" her mom whispered to me because she was seated beside me.
