Sweet Temptation Chapter 158
You flicker so often these days. I can not tell whether your light and dark are at war or in love. -Noor Shirazie. |L O R E N Z O|Every fucking single fucker in this mansion, who I say is more than a brother to me, gets to hug her and they even do, unbothered by my presence. Except me. Every one got to hold her in their arms and she let out a tears or two on their shirts, admitting that she missed them. Except me. While, I got greeted by her silence and blank look in her eyes in the middle of the rain at midnight, they got to meet and greet her properly. Unlike me. The man with the stone heart and expressions lesser than of a stone's, who does not hug, hugged her back. For a moment, I thought they are doing it just to spite me.But I know it is just my jealousy. I know they are hugging her because they care. Because they missed her just like I did. Because they had their own individual relationship with her like me. Rowan cried with her

Disappointed but not surprised. -Unknown.|L O R E N Z O|Betrayal. This is a world I have grew up being familiar with because my whole life, I have seen people betraying each other for power, money and throne. This is what goes in the world I choose to live in. I have even felt the power of it. The power of betrayal runs deep in one's blood and bones. It almost crushed me when I thought that my first betrayal was from the woman I laid my hearts on whose feet. But turned out it was all wrong. A series of misunderstandings. All of them framing her. In result? I fell for it. I let the betrayal run deep in my veins and let the power of it destroy myself instead of trusting the woman who left her everything behind and accepted my world, the world she loathed. Betrayal word is not new to me. But it is most certainly not easy to me also. Specially, from the people you least expected. As I watch Bianca, Marcus' sister, tied to the chains sit

I remember crying over you and I don't mean a couple of tears and I am blue. I am talking about collapsing amd screaming at the moon. -Unknown. |I R I S|I am still trying to register what is happening around me when Lorenzo draws out his gun from his waist band and aims it towards Bianca, who is tied to a chair. Why? It is still a mystery for me. "What the fuck?!" I couldn't help myself from yelling out. Because he looks ready to kill but no one in the room is stopping him or talking to him about it. Not even Marcus. "Calm down, Riz." Rowan said keeping his hand on my shoulder, keeping me still in my position. "Are you serious? He is going to kill her!" I about at him, my tone laced with the disbelief. Why is everyone not doing anything? Is it some sick game? Are they fucking kidding me right now? "She deserves it." I heard Rowan say with a cut off tone and turn my head to meet his eyes. Is he being serious right now? There is n

It's pathetic really, how much I still hope it's you and me in the end. -Unknown.|I R I S|"Who is Justin?" Rowan questioned with scrunched eyebrows. "He is the same fucker who made you uncomfortable in the auction ball?" Lorenzo snarled, forcing me to face him. My body suddenly feels on fire like someone is touching me and ruining me with each fucking touch. I can not help the need to scrub my skin, here, at this exact moment to wipe away those filthy touches. But nothing happens. The marks, the scars and the prints of those indecent hands. "Iris," He called my name, snapping me out of my own world. I lifted my head meeting his darkened gray eyes that bored into mine. His face has reddened and his heavy aggressive breaths caressed my skin. He is furious. His bloodshot eyes are the clear indication that he is only a few seconds away from taking a blood bath and the blood won't be his. "Answer me." Lorenzo demanded and I know all I hav

I am quite choked with the tenderness for you, my love, it makes me a bit pathetic to love you so much. -Simone de Beauvoir |L O R E N Z O|I wanted to hold Iris in my arms. But not like this. I did not wanted her to go through such vulnerability with the thinking that she needs to hide it. I pulled her in my lap and she did not protested to my relief. I did not said anything for a few good minutes and gave her the time to calm down. When I was sure that she is calm now, I put my palms in either side of her face, lifting heer head to meet my eyes. Her violet eyes looked so fucking mesmerising that I could not help but felt like drowning in them. "Everything will be okay." I tell her, firmly, to give her a reason to believe my words. Because I mean it. I meant it when I last time said that I would make things alright for her. I would keep my promise. "Thank you." She mumbled in a soft voice, her eyes staring into mine. And, for a moment it felt l

Love is not soft, like these poets say. Love has teeth which bites and the wound never close. -Stephen King. |I R I S|I can not believe I did this. I kissed him. And, not even once. Twice. Two fucking times. And, then I had the audacity to say that it was nothing. I kissed him like there was no tomorrow and I said it was nothing. What the fuck was wrong with me? But, after everything, my ugly crying session and everything, when he looked at my face and gazed at me with those soft gray eyes with nothing but adoration and tenderness in them, I could not stop myself. In fact, I do not even remember thinking about anything when I clashed my lips against his. Because at that moment, he was not the Lorenzo Ace Russo who sent a man to kill me. He was just the Lorenzo, I fell in love with. And, that was all it took for me. But when he kissed me it was like finally finding out the puzzle that had been missing since so long. Our kiss was not gent

I am sorry for what I did. I will wait forever if that is how long you need to forgive me. -Unknown. |L O R E N Z O|Rowan went inside her room a few minutes after I walked out. He went there with the tray of food in his hands and most probably with the intention to lend an ear to his best friend.I wanted to tell him that she does not need it anymore, that I made one thing right. But I did not, instead I stood at a few meter away distance and watched him entering her room as he closed the door behind him. The taste of her lips is still fresh on mine, her touch on my body still feels like an ignition and her scent has me still tangled around in its smell and how fucking addictive it is. I have so much to say even now. I want to tell her that she always lingers in my memories. I want to tell her that she is the first thought in my mind when I sit under the dark sky shining with bright stars. I want to tell her that I always think of her

My darling,You will never be unloved by me.You are too well tangled in my soul. -Unknown. |I R I S|I complete my fourth round of running around the mansion and stopped, breathing heavily. My hands planted on my knees as I heave out heavy breaths. Running clears my mind. When I was starting the fighting sport, I first started running. For few days in the start, running was all what I did to build my sat mine which was no more than zero at that time. That was the time when I realised that exhausting activities like those could help great in clearing your mind. When I enter inside the mansion, my eyes fell on the beautiful gardens on the both side of the main path. I can not help but adore the purple beauty of the gardens. Without me realising, I found myself heading towards the garden where the purple flowers stood bright under the glowing light rays of sun. Sunflowers bend towards the source of the same light as of their color. Whil

Mr. Emerson scolded but only if his wife was one from listening."What? Isn't he?" Mrs. Emerson looked up at her husband with doe eyes and her husband gave in."Thank you so much for coming." Lorenzo thanked the couple, genuinely."Oh come on, you are proposing her. We need to be here." Mrs. Emerson shrugged."You better take care of my little daisy or I will kill you." Mr. Emerson threatened and a death warning coming from such a sweet person absolutely had an deep impact.Lorenzo nodded his head as he assured the couple, "I will always take care of her. And, if any day I fail, you are free to take my life." Lorenzo added.Mr. Emerson nodded with assurance at the man's sincerity before walking ahead towards their assigned room."How is my favourite son doing?"

What we lived through is living in us. -Unknown. |I R I S|"I have a surprise for you." Both Lorenzo and Rowan said in unison. While Rowan had a big ass smile on his face regarding the same, Lorenzo had an evil smirk plastered on his face. I stared up at them, confused. "What surprise?" Lucas asked on my behalf. "Wait!" Rowan exclaimed and quickly rushed outside the mansion, leaving the three of us behind to wait for him. He returned with two people on his tail, but he was blocking my view so I could not really see them, until he stepped aside letting me take in my surprise. "Oh my god!" The words left my lips when I saw Tori and Vince standing at a few meter distance.Tori was wearing a yellow top and black jeans while Vince on the other hand was dressed formally, like going on a business trip. I waited no more time before I rushed to them and pulled Tori in a none crushing hug. She hugged me back, happily. "I am so happy that

An eye for an eye and the whole world goes blind. -Gandhi. |I R I S|"Good morning," A husky and drowsy voice greeted me in my sleep. My eyes fluttered open and I smiled, contently, at the beautiful sight in front of me. He was hovering my body and nuzzled his face in the crook of my neck when I gave him a smile. His nose tickled my sensitive skin, pulling out a giggle from me. My hands found their to his back and I sighed in pleasure as he marked my translucent skin with his torturous kisses. He took hold of my both hands in his one and pinned them above my head. His eyes gazed into mine for a fleeting second before he leaned down and crashed his lips against mine, holding me caged under his huge body. "God! I missed you." He whispered against my lips before he shoved tongue inside my mouth, ravishing it. I was completely at his mercy and he was merciless. His free hand explored my half naked body as his hand travelled from my s

Peace be upon those who hand pick their words, for fear of hurting anyone. -Unknown.|I R I S|Today, I am going to talk to Marcus. Because, umm, I kind of got distracted from the mental note I made last night. Anyways, I wore my white crop and black jeans before I headed towards his room. Marcus, I mean. Marcus' room is right opposite to Lorenzo's. The mansion is silent today, as if, people are still asleep. Most importantly Rowan. He is the only one who keeps this mansion alive with his cheerful screams when his favourite team wins a match, or when he running away from the other mam whoever he has pissed or annoyed in the mansion on the specific days. Once, I was standing in front of Marcus' room, I heaved out a long breath and lifted my hand to knock on his door. I waited for him to open the door while I thought about all the things I can possibly talk to him about. His sister? All the things starts from her and end on her. I was bu

I want you. Your bones. Your body heat. The bite marks your teeth leave, to see how bad and beautiful those eyes look beneath me. -Beau Taplin. |I R I S|After spending the whole day together inside the room with Rowan, talking and watching movies, we finally came out of that hole at night, during the dinner time. Lorenzo, Lucas and Marcus were already sitting at the dinner table, waiting for us while the servants served the food. Lorenzo's eyes immediately came to meet mine as if he has suddenly got some super natural powers to know about my whereabouts. I descended the stairs with Rowan on my tail. When we reached the dinner table, Rowan was quick to take a swat right next to Marcus, who by the way looked very lost and was barely eating. I made a mental note to have a conversation with him after dinner. I sat down next to Lorenzo on the dinning table, his heavy gaze ready to burn a hole in my head with the intensity he is watching me.

A loss is not always a lesson. Sometimes it's just a tragedy. -Unknown. |I R I S|I saw through my half open lids as he immediately rushed to me in the burning house. Vince."Iris!" He called out again but my body feels so hot and exhausted that it feels almost impossible for me to say anything. The wound in my chest hurts so much, "Iris, open your eyes." Vince patted my cheeks as he tried to get me back to my senses. Vince looked worried. Sick worried. Like with me, he himself is going to get admitted in the hospital along with me. If we would even reach there in time. "Fuck!" He cursed and if he is cursing then the matter is really worse. Because Vince does not curse. I have never heard him curse except the one time when Tori fell down the stairs. Vince was scared for her because he thought she is going to die and leave him alone. He might not say it but it is very obvious that he loves his sister so much. Tori is lucky to have h

When someone loves you, the way they say your name is different. You know that your name is safe in their mouth. -Jess C. Scott. |I R I S|Today morning, when I woke up, my day was already reserved for Ronan without my knowledge. So, I was waken up in the most horrible way one could wake up. That stupid human being threw a bucket of cold water on me. It not only ruined my precious sleep but also ruined my sheets as well. And, now he is sitting at floor in my room while the servant changes the sheet. I am in the bathroom brushing my teeth when all I wanted to do was sleep. "Hurry up, lazy lad." He yelled out from outside growing impatient after ruining my morning. With brush in my mouth I could not properly speak so I just rolled my eyes and went ahead to spit out the content in my mouth. I splattered cold water on my face and my eyes did not felt as heavy as before anymore. I am going to kill Rowan. Was my first thought since my brain

I can not tell you how piercingly and endlessly I think about you. -Virginia Wolf. |I R I S|A new day, a new morning, a new start and a new beginning. I woke up after a long night that provided me with the enough rest I needed for today. Stretching my arms, I let out a lazy yawn and rubbed my eyes with the back of my palm. When my eyes opened properly, I looked around in the room I was sleeping in. The same room, I used before. Everything seems exactly the same, just a few changes here and there. I smiled at the memories that are connected to this room, fondly, before standing up from the bed.I opened the curtains of the room letting the sun rays enter the room to lighten up the dark room. Light reached almost all the corners of the room, filling it with a new yellow and glowing light. My lips curved in a cheerful smile at the joy of this mew beginning.ast night, I decided to give my relationship with Lorenzo another chance. Despite all

I just want to be in love with somebody who wants to be in love with me. -Unknown. |L O R E N Z O|I took her petite hands in mine and looked into her eyes with tenderness before I spoke, "I did a lot of horrible things, Iris." I started, speaking with my heart because I do not remember remembering these words when I was preparing for the apology speech that Google helped me write. "I made mistakes. I disappointed you. I hurt you." I confessed all my mistakes, "But, I never meant to." I told her. "I am not trying to justify my actions here. Trust me." I insisted as if my world would crumble down if she would believe otherwise. Her violet orbs stayed focused at me while I spoke, not saying a word or interrupting me, "I.. I want to tell you that everything was wrong. It was so fucking wrong. And, you do not know how fucking sorry I am." My voice shakes when I say this and I control myself from breaking into a crying mess. Because I feel th
