You look like you have eaten the sun, like you drank so much sunlight you are drowning in it. -Yves Olade. |L O R E N Z O|I was working on my laptop, doing all the virtual signatures for the legal companies contract when my phone rang on the table. I looked at the phone screen from the laptop and saw the caller id. Nicolas. As the name appeared on the caller screen, I knew Aleeza has reached at his house and successfully complained about me like she does. Sliding the laptop to side and keeping my work on hold, I picked his call."What did you do to her?" Was how I got greeted by my older brother. "Hello brother." I greeted him as my eyes rolled at his words, "I am great. Thanks for asking." I said, my voice laced with sarcasm. "Fuck it, Enzo." He cursed, "Aleeza is being another Elena right now." He added. I controlled myself from laughing because if he would know nobody would know where did I disappeared. "I am pretty sure, she isn't

If I were the moon, I would like you to be the night. - Alexandra Vasiliu. |I R I S|The week passed in the blink of an eye for the men while I can tell about the each passing second because I was so bored. From what I have heard, there is something going on that needs their immediate attention, right now. It's the weekend and I am getting ready to go out with the guys. We are going to his brother's. Apparently, he invited the whole team and surprisingly maybe I am the useless partner in their team. Because all I do whole day is sleep, eat, watch tv, eat, sleep and repeat. There is nothing much to do with my skills of reading books, anyways. I wore a simple yet pretty summer dress of lavender colour and braided my hairs in a loose fishtail, leaving a few locks in front free. I did light make up on my face and worse white sneakers in my feet before I stood up in front of the large mirror. I took a proper glance at my reflection in the mirror an

It is nothing to die. It is frightful not to live. -Unknown. |I R I S|We reached at his brother's place and I still can't wrap my mind around the beauty and luxury of this penthouse. Everything from small lights to decor pieces screams, money and power. I let my eyes take in the interior of the penthouse following after Lorenzo. We finally stopped when three men and four women appeared in the hall. Out of all those, I only know, Aleeza. But other three of them looked, powerful. As if this penthouse is more owned by women than men. "Hello, brother." Lorenzo greeted the man with gray eyes similar to his but hair of darker shade than his. Nicolas Mario Russo, head of the black market auction and one of the most rich business man. He is a handsome and married man. There were so many chaos before his wedding but nothing was clear since he keeps his life confidential. I saw as his gray eyes brightened when his lips tugged upward in a

You are in every line, I have ever read. - Charles Dickens. |L O R E N Z O|It feels good to be surrounded by the people you have grown up with. The Russo penthouse is filled with those people. Either it's Shawn from Nicolas' team or Mason from mine. All of us know each other from a long time. Nicolas, the man who hated the presence of kids someday is now calming his own with peace at his face. It never cease to amaze me how my brother who walked like he own the ground and reign over the world, now, kisses the ground his wife walks on. He is so much in love with her. Nicolas handed me his little girl, carefully. I looked down at little Faith to find out she was already staring up at me with her beautiful gray-green eyes. "Be gentle with her." Nicolas warned in a stern voice as if I was planning on playing wrestling with an almost 10 months old baby. I rolled my eyes at his over protectiveness for Elena before shifting my attention back to m

My best dreams and worst nightmares have the same person in them. - Philippos.|I R I S|How does it feel to spend a night together with a man in one bedroom? How do you keep your hands to yourself when it's become too hard to tolerate the sexual tension? This is the situation right now. Apparently, all the room in this huge freaking mansion are busy right now so I ended up being in one room here with Lorenzo. Though, Lorenzo isn't here yet. So, I am pacing back and forth in the room figuring out how am I going to do this. Just then, the door clicked open, revealing Lorenzo with his 6 feet 1 inches height. The sight of him while calms the panic in my head also fastens my heart beat at the same time. "Any problem?" He asked as he closed the door behind him. "Actually there is just one bed." I said looking at the one double bed in the room. He turned around facing me with a raised eyebrow, "And?" He asks as if my statement is as senseless as

Someone, somehwere, can you understand me a little, love me a little? -Sylvia Plath. |L O R E N Z O|I woke up with my arms circled around the woman I am making exception in everything for. The restlessness on her face from last night is now replaced with a peaceful expression as she exhales a deep breath while deep in her sleep. Last night, when she woke up after that nightmare. She looked shit scared. She was restless and her heart was beating at a wild speed. So, instead of asking her about the nightmare and causing her to remind of those disturbing images again, I decided otherwise and did what I thought was best. And, I don't regret it. I rest my palm under the side of my head as I stare down at her face, glowing under the rays of sunlight peeking inside the bedroom as if to steal glances of the woman in my bed. She looks like a fairy. An angel. I traced her jawline, as she sleeps. My heart thumped against my chest as a small s

No human being has ever stood so close to my soul as you stood. - James Joyce. |I R I S|"Seriously, we need to go out together on a girls night." Flora said, as she jumped on the bed in excitement. All the girls are talking about random things while Elena is sleeping. But I can only watch them moving their lips not getting anything coming out of their mouth. My mind is stuck. It is messed up to be more accurate. I don't know what I an doing here. I don't know when I'll go back. I don't even freaking know why I am staying here. Sure enough, Lorenzo wanted me to stay and he would have forced me to stay if I wouldn't have stayed myself. I gathered that much from his eyes. But I didn't stayed because I felt pressurized. I just stayed. I stayed for him. But what does he want me for? God, save me because my mind is going to burst with all this over thinking. "Riz!" I heard Crystal calling my name as she snapped her fingers in front of my face, p

Things usually make sense in time, and even bad decisions have their own kind of correctness. -Miranda July. |L O R E N Z O|My blood boils as her words from the room repeated in my head from earlier. I am not his girl. The fuck she isn't. And, then she had the fucking audacity to look me in the eyes as if trying to test my patience. I had to clench my fists in order to prevent myself from wrapping my hand around her throat. I punched the wall near me with all the rage and frustration in it causing a crack in it. "You might be an asshole of my brother. But I am not paying for your shit." I heard the voice my oldest brother behind me. "I am sure you can spend a few dollars from all the black money you have earned, on your brother." I retorted through clenched teeth. I am clearly not in mood to deal with his ass right now but he isn't the one to take a hint. He never has been. "Not if that brother is dumb as fuck." He said, slapping the

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.

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
