Chapter seventeen. Ariel's POVDue to the raucousness of my tone, Tyler got shocked, and he fell heavily on the floor.“Ariel!” he growled, visibly displeased at me. He winced while standing up from the ground. Yet, I couldn't believe what he just said. Kevin has a crush?Okay. I know that shouldn't surprise me, considering how deadly handsome he is, but we are mates. Despite that, he went to see some girl who is drooling over him?Isn't that a bit unfair? I clenched my fist angrily as I tried my best not to let out another scream. The news is so overwhelming for me to control that I stood up.“Is something the matter? Or you're going to scream again?” Tyler asked with his eyes fixed on me. I let out a deep sigh before facing him. “Nothing's wrong; everything's fine, totally fine. And I apologize for yelling unexpectedly,” I apologized with a small smile spreading on my lips.“It's nothing. And you can apologize by helping me make dinner,” he arose from his seat and began walking t
Chapter eighteen. Kevin's POV Sighing for the umpteenth times, I never realized Tyler had been glaring murderously at me. But he has been that way since what occurred last night. Then again, I'm fed up with his fucking glare. “Can you stop that? Or you want me to gouge your eyes out!” I scrawled meanly at him. He huffed, seeming so unfazed. “Wouldn't it be better if you kick me out instead? You unhesitatingly did that to Ariel, so it won't be a shock to me,” he retorted cheerily. Oh, fucking gawd. How the hell am I supposed to get the information through this little bastard head that I didn't kick her out! “Tyler, for the love of the moon, I didn't kick her out; she left with her boyfriend. Why can't you get it?” I was totally frustrated at how block headed he can be. Snarling at me, he remained stubborn. “Believe what you may, okay? Fuck it. I'm going to school,”. Since breakfast was so unappetizing due to his attitude, I picked up my bag and attempted to leave the dining r
Chapter nineteen Ariel's POV“Calm down? The hell! Look what this bitch did to me? And hell! My flight's in 30 minutes!” Shantel, I assumed kept yelling at the top of her voice, gathering unnecessary attention. Truthfully, I would have loved to stick a cork into her mouth, but that'll seem offensive. The pay here is good, and it's not too stressful, and I get to head back home pretty late, isn't that enough reason to endure this bitch's nagging?So, I continued apologizing, even though it wasn't sincere; she's the one clearly at fault. Anyone with seeing eyes could tell, unless whosoever is dysfunctional. Her friend, however, seemed tired of her endless ranting.“Shantel, look it's just a little stain,” she said softly. Shantel's eyes flared up in anger.“A little stain? Mina, are you fucking with me!”“Okay. Forgive me. Let's go to a mall or something. Okay? The waitress has apologized. We should leave unless you want to miss your flight to France,” Minaj said suggestively. Shantel
Chapter TwentyAriel's POVTrembling in fear, I couldn't stop myself from biting my lips extremely hard. The look on Ace's face is scaring the shit out of me. Why the hell is he staring at me so lustfully? Even his lips were held in a lewd smile. He's never gazed at me with such unholy eyes before. And seriously, I am so afraid. “What…are you doing, Ace? Stop ogling at me like that!” I screamed out, insanely loud; I wanted to attract attention. I need anyone, someone, or anything to disrupt this moment. Unless Ace is going to do something we're both going to regret.He snarled, probably vexed at how much I yelled. “Stop shouting!” he growled demandingly.“That's not going to happen. If you don't let me go, then get ready to be the center of attention!” I blurted raucously. Ace gritted furiously as his eyes roamed around shortly. Maybe he saw someone heading towards us, so he dressed normally. I heaved a sigh of relief as he returned his manhood to its rightful position. I assumed A
Chapter Twenty-oneKevin's POVWhat occurred last night was kept a secret from Tyler. If that little rat ever gets to know that Ariel got abused by Ace, then I'm sure he's going to kill me. To him, I'm obliged to always be by her side and rescue her. But fortunately for me, I returned home last night only to find him sleeping in bed. While I made breakfast this morning and left for school, he didn't utter a word about Ariel. I was thrilled I got down the address of the waitress in the restaurant, same thing with her contact info. As expected, Ariel will be living with her from now on. Despite how much I wanted her to stay with me, I have to respect her decision. After all, I was the one who gave her the permission to leave. But I couldn't help but consider the fact that Ace might be stubborn—there's a possibility he will do everything in his power to get Ariel back. Sigh….It's all getting on my nerves. I just wish she could f****** tell him everything about us. If he refuses to bac
Chapter Twenty-two. Ariel's POV“Ariel, there's an order at table four!” the voice of Eros resounded through the kitchen as he walked in with a slip in his grip. He's supposed to do it himself yet gave me the obligation. “You know that's your order, not hers” Tikka didn't fail to complain, and he rolled his eyes carelessly at her. “Don't worry. I'll do it!” I beamed, pleased.They were both shocked as I carried out the order without whining—technically, I complain about every order, so I'm guessing that are quite shocked. Happily, I did as instructed with a wide smile playing continuously on my lips. Despite how shitty some customers were, they couldn't kill my joy due to how immensely gleeful I am. I never realized I had been giving my mood away too much to the others. So during our breakfast and at the ice cream shop, Tikka questioned my mood. “You've been unusually happy today. You even followed Eros' order” she said tactfully while I licked my ice cream cone deliciously. “So?”
Ariel's POVOh, just great. Of all the motherfukers I had to set my eyes on first thing in the morning, it just had to be Agnes isn't it. My fucking god, what the hell is she doing here?A better question, how the fuck does she know I'm staying here now? I'm very positive that Kevin will be the last person to spill the beans. The who the fuck might have give away my location? All that didn't matter at that instant anyway. “Thank goodness you're doing okay!” Agnes attempted to engulf me in a hug, which I politely declined with the raised of a hand. She paused then smiled shortly. “Ma'am I would really appreciate if you could tell me why you are here,” I went straight to the point without beating around the bushe. Seriously, I don't find her presence pleasant. To be sincere, I found it quite irritating. Despite the expression that I portrayed, Agnes played oblivious to it and made her way into the house. As much as I wanted to walk her out, it would seem quite obnoxious and Tikka mig
Ariel's POV Our journey to the bank was pretty short. Tikka and I conversed constantly, so we never really paid any attention to the distance. I could only watch as she made a withdrawal after asking for her bank balance. Together, we stepped out after some hours with a very gleeful Tikka. She couldn't hide her happiness as she kept smiling widely. “With the rate you're smiling, your cheeks are going to rip off,” I grinned at her. She seemed careless as she did a light twirl. “You can't understand my happiness, Ariel. Finally, we can get a better apartment!” she gushed. I rolled my eyes at her, finding a new apartment totally extravagant. “I've said it before, purchasing a new apartment is irrelevant, Tikka. Why the fuck do you keep insisting?” I scoffed, a bit annoyed. “If you combine that amount, aren't you aware your college funds would be sorted out?” I added, hoping she'll reason more carefully. Then again, Tikka seemed to have made up her mind. She etched, then grabbed
