The party hall was lavishly decorated with every imaginable detail. Men and women were laughing, drinking, talking, and displaying their status.
Mr. and Mrs. Stone cut the huge cake, while holding each other's hands and smiling affectionately. Music played and couples danced.Only one man was leaning against the railing of the balcony watching everything with his colourless beautiful orbs. To put straight his hawk-like eyes searching for someone. People were perplexed by his presence today, much like he was. He was not a partygoer. The world knew that no one could make Mr. Iden Ruan attends their personal parties. Not even his immediate family. He never understood the concept of broadcasting their special day to the world and wasting the most expensive thing. Time. And despises wasting his time on such frivolous pursuits. But today, he was here to spend his most important time. BORED. He was smoking while leaning against the balcony. Men attempted to approach him but were turned away by his bodyguards. Women were dying to breathe the same air he did.DO NOT EVEN THINK,written all over his face, and his bodyguards are doing their jobs well.His gaze darted to the floor. Men and women were swaying their bodies to the rhythm of romantic music. Couples face beaming with joy with their partners. Mr. and Mrs. Stone both had incredible smiles. Embracing each other in arms and they kissed. Minutes had passed, but the loving birds were still unwilling to let go of each other's lips. Their kiss grows in intensity as the music progresses. Along with the music, the room is filled with the sounds of loud breathing and tearing clothes. Music waned moaning increased. louder and louder. The sounds of flapping muscles could be heard everywhere.FACES PERPLEXED.Confused, ashamed, baffled, and disgusted. The room was filled with all sorts of emotions. Shaken up. Mr. and Mrs. Stone parted.Face flushed with shame, she searched hither and thither for the source of the sounds."You naughty women! Does your husband know?Rosy you little whore!!"Penny dropped Mrs Stone's passim with horror. Eyes dropped to the floor, baffled and still not daring to rise."Yeah, yeah, more, harder, yeah" (breathing rapidly).Sound continued to play."Common baby ….(gasp)""Humm…. Uuhh..(moan)"'Mrs Stone... Fuck... You bitch... Let me fuck... You hard... '""Yes.. Common... ( laugh)"With every moan and gasp.Men's wood became a rod, and women blushed. Still perplexed.Every eye fell on Mrs Stone."Stop…stop it..."Taken aback she shouted from her throat.Every hateful, ashamed, sympathy, questioning, eye piercing through her.She was Ashamed.Hate for her, sympathetic for her husband. That man spoke about loyalty all the time.Looks of sympathy landed on Mr. Stone.His head lowered, his hand clenched, he stood rigid.Eyes looked at each other, and the heels started to spun to leave the couple's personal space. Someone patted his shoulder in sympathy.The man appeared helpless thanks to his cheating wife.Boom***His rage high up and hand landed on her right cheek.He slapped his wife.Stunned. People rooted to the ground."You, cheating whore." He cursed shaking like a leaf.She stood there holding her hot cheek.Tears rolled down from her eyes.He raised his hand once more, this time stopping in the middle.Bolt out of the blue*"Ahhh!!""Stope …stop... Yes yes there …huummm!!"The rhythm was repeated, but this time with music, and the performances of the actors and actresses sting the eyes. It was on every wall and corner of the party hall. Even the blind can see."What the fuck is this...stop it..."Now it was time to scream for Mr. Stone.As he was singing the duet with some whores.The performances of Mr. and Mrs. Stone showcased everywhere. With different people.Onesome, twosome, threesome, and sometimes more than that, the location was their home.Guests gasp for air."Mr. Stone, your wife was an amazing fucking bitch; now the deal is yours.""She is all yours." Mr. Stone said on LED.All the casting gazes on them. Disgusting.It is all over. Mr. Stone muttered in her stupor."Stop it.... Who the mother fucker dear to do it... "He gone. Insane.Not only Mr. and Mrs. Stone, but also numerous other celebrities and business leaders were involved. And they are here right now. Exposed, Ashamed, raged.On the balcony... the man who usually wears no expression. Had a questioning look at the woman standing in the darkest corner, leaning against the wall. Her black dress swayed along with the air. A hat on her head concealed half of her face. Shipping a wine with her right hand and holding a cigarette with her left. Chiaroscuro of the moonlight fell half on her body. She appeared hauntingly beautiful.A ring of mystery encircled her.No she was a riddle, a mystery , and an enigma.And he was determined to solve this puzzle.BUTA question had him perplexed.She exacted revenge??On her own parents?Why??.."Happy wedding anniversary, Mom.""Happy wedding anniversary, Dad."She made a low whisper.A sneer escaped her lips.She tossed the wineglass and the cigarette and left the scene of mayhem.The moon was bright and the alley was still dark. The sound of a frog croaking and the haunting call of owls resounded in the deserted alley. After the winter rain, the night bridge was chilly. As a homeless man, she moved at a slow pace not knowing to head in which direction. A stubborn tear fights hard to roll down. Crossing her arms, she raised her head to gaze at the beautiful moon.What a coincidence: the moon was cold and alone in the dark night, just like her. She smirked sadly at the Moon. She took a step forward, her head hanging low. Pulling the rug out from under her feet, she spun, heels pressed against the wall, cold and soft lips pressed against her own. ...................................Author note;Hi guysI hope everyone is doing well.This is my second book on this app. Hope you all are enjoying it.

Your feedback is extremely valuable to me in keeping myself motivated.Thank you and keep reading."Sing with me, everybody.""Rock on."Rock the world!The crowd cheered."Rock the world."She jumped on stage. The masses jumped along side her. "Rock the world," she sang, pointing her microphone back at the audience, which had gone crazy with her. Her long, beautiful hair, adorned with various colors, hung in the air like a beautiful canvas.Her tall hourglass figure was tightly wrapped in black leather pants and a halter tank top with shimmery belts and jewels. Her confidence was palpable, as if she had been born to rule the stage. A group of beautiful women danced alongside her as her voice echoed throughout the hall, causing everyone to go insane and dance like there was no tomorrow.When the music stopped, she bowed to the audience and walked back through the crowd, leaving Masses shouting her name. "Ellaya ""Ellaya ""Ellaya"Hooting, shouting, and deafening noises filled the concert hall.She confidently exited the stage, tossing her headbands and wristbands with each mo
"You recently returned from France and successfully took over your hometown's business. I am very proud of you, my son."Iden sat across from his father, who took a seat behind his study table."Iden, as a mayor, my job is not only to serve the nation, but also to encourage young people to get involved in politics. Every individual's first and most important duty should be to serve their country. Politics is not just a game for retirees; it is also the responsibility of young people. And I expect you to support me in the upcoming elections to help spread this message.Devid Ruan, Iden's father, puffed off the pipe and pointed at his son. The man exuded pride in his son. Why not? He not only loves and respects his family, but he was also an extremely talented businessman. Ruan Industries was the name he took to the top, where he could only think. His grandfather's name was Ruan. He had begun his company on a modest scale, and he and his father worked assiduously day and night to expand
"Thanks, Aaron. I am not sure what I would have done without you." Eva shut the car door and bent over to thank the man in the driver's seat."Anything for you, sweetie". He winks at her with a silly smile on his lips. "By the way, what happened to your rock star?"He inquired, looking at the woman walking towards the entrance. "Nahh! Nothing really, just met someone," she said, turning back to face her exciting figure. "May be more cavalier than she." They both laughed. "I need to leave now and see you later." She left."I think we should hold a press conference before releasing the video album 'broken,' what do you think, Ellaya?" Eva inquired as she viewed the newly edited footage."Yeh! of course , why don’t you ask the model of yours to deal with her controversies first. Or I will hold her accountable for the losses." Ellay spoke while typing something on her laptop."Ohh!! Come on, Ellaya, she is just a model; nothing will happen just because she enjoys being in controversies."
With the annoying sound of his cellphone Iden tossed aside the duvet and sat on the edge of his bed. Raking his hand through his dark black hair, he turned slightly to see a woman sleeping naked. He frowned slightly and pursed his lips.Last night, even after taking a cold bath, he could not get the women hunting out of his mind. He could not stop thinking about her purple eyes. He ended up drinking at the bar and bringing the woman to one of his hotels' suites. The woman approached him and told him her name, which he could not recall now. She introduced herself as a supermodel or actress, but he did not remember and did not care; all he remembered was thrusting her hard, thinking of a certain purple-eyed girl.He still had no idea who the girl was. Where did she come from? She appears to be insane, as no sane man would jump in front of a speeding car to save an errant dog. He stopped himself from sending his people to drag her into his office, fuck her hard, and then throw her out of

"Good morning, ma'am. Here's your black coffee without sugar.""Thanks, Martha," Ellaya said, taking a sip from her coffee. She moved out of the kitchen, holding a coffee in one hand and a book in the other, her full attention on her book. It was her habit to read her favorite novels with a cup of coffee. She loved to read romance novels and was adamant that fairytales come true, love is real, and one day she would meet her prince just like all those girls in books. She had just taken some steps when she heard some ecstatic and frustrated screams from one of the guests' rooms. She had no intention of knowing what happened, but the room was ajar, and her tentative gaze fell on the man and woman banging each other on the bed.It was her father, not her mother, but a girl of her age. She shook her head, stepping forward unseen.However, this was not the first instance. Since childhood, she had witnessed her father with multiple women. He enjoyed bringing them in at odd hours of the night.
Gazing into the mirror, she sat in the chair facing the vanity. The woman stared at her back with purple eyes. Her eyes were large and doe-like, with double rings encircling purple orbs. It was way too unique. "Do you realize how awful your eyes look? You should cover them up or else people will be afraid of you and leave you alone." She hurriedly applied dark brown lenses to her eyes. She lifted her head and grinned, "Perfect." she gently stroked the leth. In the mirror, the woman followed suit. "Look at your hair; it resembles witches in cartoons. People will burn you alive believing you are a witch and will cast evil spells on their children if you walk around with that hair. It is weird". She grabbed the hair powder and gave her hair a rough rubdown."Now, everything is perfect." She frowned as she looked at the woman in the mirror once more. "See how ugly you are. Everybody has flawless, pale skin, but you weirdo, you have pig's ass pink skin. You look like a child of a demon. I
"Ellaya…"Something jarred her out of her reverie. She let go of his hand, embarrassed.Smiling again,"So is he your boyfriend that you talk about all the time?" Ellaya kidded.Iden glanced at Annabell and arched an eyebrow. Annabell shook her head, embarrassed; "he is a close friend". She answered.With a "Oh! "She looked at Iden, he winked. She grimaced. He bowed slightly and said, "See, I am still available. You can try." whispering in her hair. He jerked back quickly, a smirk on his face. Her fist clenched as she glanced at his beaming face before turning back to face her closest friend."Happy birthday, Bell," a person exclaimed, giving her a bear hug from behind. It was a boy their age, he pulled her, and she pulled Ellaya alone. She turned back as she was dragged; he was still there, scrutinizing her, but his gaze was different today.something different. Something deep, perhaps disappointment, rage, a desire to burn her soul, or a sense of attraction. She did not fully understand
It had been weeks since Ellaya woke up. Though her physical injuries were healing, she seemed to be a shadow of her former self. She had shut herself off completely, retreating into a silent world where no one could reach her. Iden never brought up Uncle Richard, and she didn’t seem inclined to talk about him either. Their unspoken agreement to avoid the topic only deepened the growing chasm between them. Iden rarely visited the hospital, but when he did, he lingered outside her door, never stepping in for more than a brief glance. The once vibrant and animated Ellaya sat on the hospital bed one sunny morning, staring out of the window. The sunlight poured in, illuminating her frail figure. She had lost so much weight that her clothes hung loosely on her, and the dark circles under her eyes revealed the sleepless nights she endured. Her hands rested idly in her lap, motionless, and her lips trembled faintly, as though she wanted to speak but had forgotten how. Iden had seen many
Iden walked in, hands shoved deep in his pockets, his eyes darting between Ellaya’s face and the man sitting on her bed. His footsteps were slow and deliberate. His expression was cold, void of any emotion, as always. The man’s gaze tracked Iden with narrowed eyes and a stoic demeanor. Iden paused near him, then turned to look at Ellaya, who seemed transfixed on her husband, like a deer caught in headlights. “Will you not introduce me to him, puppet?” the man asked, his voice dripping with condescension, a grin plastered across his face. Iden chewed the word puppet under his breath as his brows knitted. As if jolted from a trance, Ellaya flinched at his words and shifted her gaze from the Iden to man then again, man to Iden . “He… is Iden he... is my h... husband,” she stammered, licked her dry lips, her voice shaking, tears glistening in her eyes. Iden observed her with a mix of curiosity and concern. He had seen every expression on her face, but never fear—now, she looke
Iden leaned back, a devilish grin spreading across his face, eyes sparkling with malice. “This is for thinking about my woman the wrong way, Alex,” he sneered, his voice smooth yet laced with venom. “And for the girls whose lives you ruined.” Alex's breath quickened, panic flaring in his chest as he clutched his neck, feeling the warmth of the poison seeping into his veins. “You son of a bitch,” he gasped, desperation coursing through him. “You can kill me, but not him. He would never let her go, never.” His voice faltered, each word strained as the poison began to tighten its grip. Iden froze for a moment, his eyes narrowing as he locked onto Alex. Kai and Annabel spun around, concern etched across their faces. Iden moved in close, gripping Alex's hair tightly, forcing him to look up. “Who is he?” His voice was low and menacing, a growl that sent shivers down the spine. Alex, however, just grinned defiantly through the pain, his eyes sparkling with defiance. Iden lifted him
Annabel twirled the pendrive between her manicured fingers, a sly smile curving her lips as she leaned closer. “Is this what you were talking about, sweetheart?” she purred, her voice dripping with mock sweetness. She crouched down, her fingers brushing against Alex's cheek, sending a shiver down his spine. Alex’s eyes widened in disbelief, a storm brewing within him. “Fucking bitch,” he growled, his voice low and menacing. Anger radiated off him like heat waves, and he clenched his fists, knuckles turning white. “I knew you were a fucking traitor! I knew you were just putting on an act to get close to me.” A cruel laugh escaped him, echoing around them, sharp and bitter. “I should have killed you after I… after I fucked you that night.” He paused, the weight of his words hanging heavily in the air, his chest heaving with rage. “But wait, it was my damn mistake. I wanted to kill both of you together.” His eyes fixated on the pendrive again, narrowing suspiciously as if it he
The hand under his trembled slightly, her eyelashes flicked. Iden's body stiffened, rigid, and his heart throbbed violently. He clenched his hand, his eyes focused on her. Her eyes weren't focused, but she slowly opened them and tried to say something. "Laaya," he whispered. Finally, the tear he had been holding back fell down his cheeks, and he didn't even realize it. "Iden," she spoke softly. Her eyes were still not focused and fluttered twice before she finally shut them again. "Ellaya," he called out, his voice laced with panic. The doctors rushed in. "She... she just opened her eyes," he said anxiously, gently rubbing her hand. "Don't worry, Mr. Ruan. She's out of the coma now," the doctor reassured him. Iden exhaled deeply, nodding silently, his gaze fixed on her pale face and the steady rise and fall of her breaths. Every passing moment felt like agony to him. Guilt, a sensation foreign to him until now, gnawed at his insides, tormenting him with every breath. At
Iden returned to the hospital, his clothes clean and looking noble and handsome, as if the accident meant nothing and was just a passing moment. But the scrapes on his knuckles hinted at a fierce battle he had fought, as if he had gone through hell and back. He pushed open the door, and the sight still stung his eyes, hurting him like hell. His footsteps were light on the floor as he approached her bedside. Sitting down beside her, his fingertips touched her. She was pale and warm against his skin, still unconscious, still in a coma. He caressed her cheeks, noting the bandages on her head and the faint marks of several small cuts. "I am sorry, princess. I should have done better," he whispered, his voice cracking with sheer emotion. He had beaten the shit out of the person who caused her condition, but the flame in his heart still burned fiercely, and he knew why. If only he had not allowed her to sit in the car and wait for her death. If only he had never left. But he knew th
Ellaya was taken to the emergency room, leaving Iden waiting outside, surrounded by doctors and nurses. He was injured and still bleeding but was hell-bent on not getting treated until he was sure she was mended. "Iden, you need to wrap up your wound first," Annabel said, clasping his shoulder and squeezing lightly to ground his lost soul. Iden sat on a chair, his fingers clasped together, head hung low, legs spread apart. His shirt was dyed with red and dark blood, not only his. He was amidst a quest for revenge, yet here he was, tortured by the woman he sought vengeance upon. His eyes flicked toward the operating room, and his fingers tightened. His lips stretched in a straight line, and his eyes were bloodshot. The cold metal gate stared back at him as if mocking him. Inside, Ellaya was surrounded by doctors and nurses. Each moment stretched like an eternity, piercing him like a knife cutting through his very soul. Kaito stood in the corner, arms folded, eyes fixed on his brothe
Iden gently lifted Ellaya out of the wreckage, holding her close as he carried her away from the burning car. Ellaya felt delicate and weightless in his arms, her skin warm to the touch. Despite the searing heat from the flames, Iden pressed on without hesitation. His sole purpose was to ensure Ellaya's safety. Ellaya, can you hear me?" he gasped, his voice trembling with fear and anxiety as he hurried to a safe distance, Annabel right beside him. His heart raced in his chest as he rushed away from the burning wreckage, holding Ellaya close. Each step felt like a race against time, every movement fueled by desperation and a fierce resolve to save her. Ellaya's body seemed so delicate and weightless in his arms, her skin radiating warmth against his own. Her eyes fluttered open for a moment, meeting his gaze with a hint of recognition before gently closing again. "Stay with me, Ellaya," he murmured, his words thick with emotion. "Please, stay with me." Tears welled up, clouding
Sitting rigidly in the car, Ellaya watched in horror as her husband, holding her best friend, jumped out, leaving her utterly alone in the speeding vehicle. Her face lost all color, and her body shivered uncontrollably. Tears streamed down her cheeks like raindrops, and her grip tightened around the car seat as fear crept into her bones, sending chills down her spine. Her fingers trembled as she grabbed the handle of the car door, contemplating jumping out to save her own life. But as if something shifted within her, she dropped the idea. She retreated, folding her legs to her chest and hugging them tightly, hiding her face between her knees as if shielding herself from impending harm. She felt cold and numb, her mind unable to process anything but her past—her abusive and manipulative parents, her struggles in childhood to live a normal life, her desperate craving for parental love, and then Iden, who had entered her life like a sweet melody. Everything had seemed surreal at th
