Tiara's POV

It's been an hour since we came to the party and an hour since Lucas informed me that Stefano is back but as the time is passing, I am coming close to believing that Lucas must have got the wrong information.

He said he heard his dad talking to someone on the phone that Stefano will be attending today's party.

But seeing that the party is in full swing people gossip, dance, and enjoy themselves. I don't think Stefano will come.

My excitement and the butterflies that swarmed my stomach after Lucas's info are dying.

Hence to self-pity myself I gave a glance across the party hall, I found everyone busy. And then my eyes landed on Lucas who was sitting on one of the tables with a pout.

Concerned I went to him and took a seat beside him.

"Hey! What happened? " I asked grabbing his attention.

"Nothing. " Sadness dripping from his voice.

"Lucas, you know, friends don't lie right ?" I asked raising one of my brows. Lucas sighed and then he looked at me with a sad face " I

I want to turn and look at him. It's been 2 months and not even a glimpse and now when he is standing just behind me, I am unable to find the courage to turn and look into his eyes.What if he had grown taller?Had he grown his beards? Oh, God! What the hell am I thinking. Stupid stupid Tiara, turn and see for yourself, duffer. What if he thinks you are being rude. Admonished my inner self.But I remain frozen until two strong arms wound around me. My stomach busted with butterflies, my breath hitching. I closed my eyes. Savoring the warmth of his body, touching mine. Slowly Stefano turned me around but I kept my eyes closed.I don't know how much time passed maybe seconds, minutes, I don't know but not being able to take it anymore I finally opened my eyes.

    Tiara's POV I am happy.Scratch that I am on cloud fucking nine. Oops! A bad word. But right now I don't care. It's been a long since I felt this ticklish and giddy. So anyway I am so happy today that I feel like the early morning chirping birds, full of melody and enthusiasm. I want to twirl, sway and jump with joy.And it's all due to one person.Stefano Valentino.The only one, who just knows how to play the strings of my emotions. No matter how hard I try. I fail to wipe out the grin and red coating my cheeks.Every moment of his lips moving with mine is playing like a record in my mind and that too is on repeat mode. Again and again.My cheeks are aching and exhausted from this much smiling. I don't even remember, when was the last time, I felt so delighted. But with Stefano, the mere mention of his name is enough to lift my mood. Though not much happened after my submission, as we were disturbed by one of his men, as he was needed at the party.

    Tiara's POVI did as he told me. Unzipping his pants I pulled them down. He was left with no clothing except his Calvin and Klein boxers, cladding his toned thighs. Gulping I looked up to find Stefano looking at me with dark desires, my looks were no different.And at the same I can't believe it's me, the younger me would have never thought that one day she will be in a situation like this and forget about the younger me, only a couple of months ago, I was not this girl. Or I say, woman. One must think, I am a shame to woman empowerment. But those people didn't lead the life I lived.Every second of my life I crave to have control, over things happening around me and fail miserably. So when Stefano takes control, I feel like my life is in my hands. I feel empowered rather than dominated. I feel like I am being taken care of. And that need to be taken care of feels good. "I don't have much patience," Stefano growled, snapping me out of my thoughts. He is impatient and so am I. If I

    My eyes twitched to adjust the brightness lighting my face. Opening them slowly I rubbed my eyes and opened them to see early sunrise from the window across. It's sunrise. I whispered to myself. And readied to lay down again for a while. When my eyes roamed around the room, that was when I bolted upright from my half-lay position. Realization dawned upon me.I am not at my home.A gust of breeze flows, making me shiver. And then I noticed I am naked. Memories of last night flooded my brain. And with memories several questions too. Did no one ask about me? Being so overprotective, why my phone is not bombarded by my uncle and brother?? And so many other questions but I don't dwell on them for much as I know Stefano must have handled everything. But my question is ... What did he say? Talking about Stefano my head snapped to my left and Found Stefano sleeping peacefully, beside me. He is naked from the waist and definitely under the blanket as well. The temptation to peek is high

    Tiara's POVI read somewhere once that you should not fear death. It's fear you should fear, as it kills you even before death can.If a few years ago someone had asked my opinion about these words, I would have laughed and said, both means the same. But today I know the difference. Right now I am at a position in my life, where death doesn't scare me it tempts me with the peace it brought with itself. What scares me is the fear that I carry within my heart. Fear of not dying, but seeing those whom I love, die. This fear kills me every day. Slowly and tauntingly. "Pull your hoody more, our faces shouldn't be visible." Obeying what Jaxon commanded. I looked around my surrounding once. Something I am doing since we left the safety of our house. And entered in one of these creepy allies. It is one of those we see in those creepy horror movies. Trash-littered roads were brightened by loosely hung street lamps and the natural glow of the moon piercing the night. Those allies are filled

Your uncle was and I fucking wanted to be. I wanted to be the king. " he roared again and with both surprise and shock I looked at him. His eyes snapped towards mine, there was animalistic rage in his eyes, a look that made me cower away when he walked towards me, " Your father, he never wanted to be in this, he wanted to play family, and yet people gave him everything that I wanted and dreamed about to him on a fucking platter.

    " Tia, did you take your medicine?" I turn towards the source of the voice. In front of me stands the only man I know. Ramon is standing in front of me as I curl more into the couch I am lying on, he has a worried look on his face. His signature glasses are off his face and in his hands.I glance at him and the small bottle he had in his hand, he looks between me and the bottle. While I try to register what he asked. He asked me if I took the pill. Feeling exhausted all the time, it is difficult for me to process things, I take time, but when his question sinks, I look at him with heavy eyes and nod. Talking is too much for my always fatigued self. I like answering with my features than words, they are easier. Ramin sighs heavily and then takes place on the same couch as me, near my foot. He brings my feet onto his lap and starts massaging them. Once again like all the time, for a snap of seconds, I feel rattled and pull away from his hold but the feeling goes no s

    Yesterday was one of the most peaceful, months, she was still a stranger but peace was there. I wish I could have stopped the time, she wanted to stay more than her I wanted her to stay. But I had to let her go, I had no choice. If she would have stayed a second more, I would have had all my control and would have been higher, the way she was sitting in front of me, and the little trust she showed me, even though I am a stranger to her. Tiara doesn't know but that was the biggest hope for me. A hope that soon I will have my kitten back. Soon kitten. Just keep your faith.
