Ashley Ashley felt restless and she couldn’t quite place a reason for her restlessness. Deciding not to sit around aimlessly while the boredom ate into her like termites would to wood, she decided to take a walk around the house. With a bottle of liquor in her hands and a dagger in the other, she pranced about the house until she got to the picture gallery. This part of the house was the most serene… and the most beautiful as well. She admired each portrait, running her fingers deftly over each and every one as she went until she stopped at one. It was a painting which was depicting a picture of Zeke . The picture which had been a gift from him and which she had hated with intense passion stared back at her as she stared at it. “Ugly, ugly burnt out carrot!” She chanted, tapping on the surface of the portrait. For a minute, she wished she could rip out his eyes from the portrait and that it would really happen in real life too. She hated him that much. She stared pointedly at th
A night laterLuna After a few minutes of waiting patiently for her client, her heart once again leapt with joy for the nth time today when she saw Alex walking towards her with a new found bounce in his steps. He was wearing a fancy mask, one that accentuated his face and matched the colour of his dress shirt; and as soon as he saw her, he smiled. A bright smile. One that squeezed the sides of his eyes until tiny wrinkles showed there. “What do we start with?” She asked him quizzically. She wasn’t sure she had a choice here if he mentioned anything she couldn’t do but she still felt compelled to ask due to how good her mood was. “Do you want to discuss?” She noticed how he clicked his tongue at her question and even how his eyes shone in agreement; he liked the idea too, it was obvious that he did but he shook his head in negation; “No,” He said, making Luna halt in her steps as she turned to stare at him incredulously. “I’d want you to dance.” He added slowly. His eyes met hers
Many days laterLuna Luna gasped in awe, her heart was filled with so much joy, and with it came the feeling of fulfillment that she had always craved for all her life… the feeling of serenity and peace at last. She hugged herself, the smile tugging at her lips refused to falter as she stared at Alex ’s handsome face. This was unbelievable! Marvelously so! She couldn’t believe how long had passed during this short time and how it has suddenly become months that Alex has been hospitalized… and now, he is fine! Fine at last, and fine enough to come home. As they strutted out of the hospital, walking side by side, all Luna could think about was finally having a normal life. The thought made her shiver with excitement as she couldn’t wait to begin to live the kind of life that she has always dreamed of…the type that had always kept her awake, crying and wishing that a miracle would occur. And now, a miracle did occur. The fact that Gabriel had died had made her feel sad for a brief
"Jess-""What did you do?" Jess asked, while staring at Luna with his big, curious eyes.Her heart skipped.Luna shook her head repeatedly. She shook it so hard, an intense headache surged sideways. The blood and lifeless bodies that laid across the floor were messing with her head."You're my boyfriend Jess, you know I can't do this," she tried convincing the fierce looking Jess, who looked like he could kill her at that point. He really could, if he wanted.Unlike the expression on her face, Luna's mind was in turmoil. Walking into Jess's apartment, only to see his parents dead, with a knife stuck in his mother's flat belly.At first, she had been shocked and petrified as she stared at the multiple gash on their body. It was brutal, that she had staggered in disbelief and on impulse, raced to the body of his mother and pulled the knife out, while shaking her cold and rigid figure.It was at that moment, Jess had walked in. He too ran to his parent's body, shaking it as if he couldn'
Luna winced when Miles massaged her swollen left leg. The hustle and bustle sound was drowned by the quietness of the secluded room he had brought her to.Miles was Luna's brother, the only family she had left."Brother I-" she winced, but he shut her up and continued rubbing her leg."I will kill that murderer. I will kill him for this!" Miles swore seriously. He pressed softly, while adding pressure at the pained region."How did you find me?" Luna changed the topic, the rage of her brother was something she had been avoiding, ever since she was a kid.Miles looked everywhere except for her after letting go of her leg. "It should be better now, you need rest."Luna sighed and leaned down on the armrest, refusing to think of what could have happened if her brother was even a second late. Of course, Jess would have handed her over to the police and that would have been the end of her. She doubted there was anything that would have been able to prove her innocence."How did you find me?
Miles was wrong, it wasn't a mansion, it was a community. Heck, Luna could even call it a town on its own. She stared wide eyed and completely amazed at the bustling. The securities were another thing to gawk at.Miles had a bike, in which they rode in with. Immediately the gate to the community parted, the heavily armed men at the entrance narrowed their eyes at the strange face which was Luna. She stared back.There was one peculiar thing Luna noticed - every single man there had a tattoo, similar ones. Even her brother did. It covered just the left part of their neck and it was quite interesting. A dagger, nothing unique, just a double end dagger with blunt spikes. Yeah, nothing unique.Luna was carried away with studying the ink, that she didn't notice the meaningful glances the men shared and an item Miles had withdrawn."What's that?" She inquired, with confusion written all over her face."A plaque. Without the tattoo, you can only be allowed in with this plaque." Miles expla
With each step, his face became clearer to Luna. She could see he had a five o'clock shadow and a tattoo that peeked through his open buttons. He was like a neat mess. His shirt was tucked halfway, his eyes were compelling and he never let it shift from her.Luna doubted if the courage she had to fix her eyes on him and patiently await his arrival was hers. It was probably the alcohol. Alexander was too intimidating to make you wanna stay in his presence.His shoes echoed as it hit the floor softly. Now that he was just a couple of feet away, Luna observed how his lips were shaped quite oddly; a prominent Cupid's bow and a deep dimple at the right corner of his lips. But it was feminine, curved naturally upward and its color could rival that of any woman out there.Luna was too caught in his facial features and how hot he was, she hadn't noticed he was now before her. Not just him, behind him were his guards with their guns stuck to their waist. Luna took a cautious step back, she rub
Luna didn't imagine she was going to spend the night in a dungeon. The floor was hard and it creaked with each movement that she made. The cold was extreme and for the first time in her life, Luna regretted her decision. It didn't occur to her that she was going to spend the night in a dungeon, on a cold and hard floor.After turning around the floor, she only managed to fall asleep when the door to the dungeon squeaked and she was roughly led out."Oh.. it's morning." Luna noted, dimming her eyes to fit the sudden light she was exposed to.The guard sent her a displeased look, while still half dragging her across the hall."Where are you taking me?!" Luna bellowed, she winced at the pain that originated from his fingers digging into her skin."To the boss!" He replied with equal volume as she had spoken.The boss. Her heart skipped a bit.It skipped even harder, when she heard a scream behind a door and then, silence took over. It skipped the hardest, when the guard knocked once on

He grunted at the thought, liking it more and more by the hour. He remembered he had asked her to do something for him and grunted scrubbing a hand over his face. "Well?" "Well what?" Ashley asked feigning ignorance as she walked to his wine cellar in the corner of the office. She picked up a bottle and poured some of it into her mouth, not bothering to grab one of the glasses staring at her. "I didn't see anything if that's what you're asking." She shuddered as she remembered the sight that had greeted her. Not something a sibling should have to see. But then Gabriel wasn't your typical sibling. He was her brother, yes but that was about it. It was only a matter of speaking. There was no emotional benefit attached. He treated her the way he treated his staff at work. The only thing he didn't do was ask her to blow his junk. It wouldn't surprise her if he did. He was a ruthless ** and a huge piece of work. "What did you find out?" He insisted, ignoring her failed attempt at feigning
"We are done." Gabriel met them at the entrance and they greeted him. "Okay, you can leave." He ordered and they did. "Now, don't you feel better?" Gabriel asked as he bit his lips as he stared at her. Luna, who had been tied for hours, was asked such a question. She was pissed. "Oh of course, thank you for feeding me and clothing me and making me feel like myself and even for the warm silky bath, goodness knows how I would be if you hadn't interfered right?" Luna was being sarcastic and rude. "Now now." Gabriel walked closer to her and shook his head. "That's not the right way to talk to me now is it?" Gabriel asked her as he held her chin and looked at her. He gulped when he saw how pretty she was and how her nipples were. He had malicious thoughts. "Let me suggest this. "I will- I will make you exclusive again and I will make your life a little bit easier if you don't mess up again? If you don't mess up again. We all know that I am very generous and this- this is all your fau
It was the next day, Luna thought all she experienced was a dream but it wasn't. It was real and true. She knew she was in for it. She rolled her eyes and fumed. She was in her old room, the room where she slept while she was with Gabriel . The room was dark, the shaky and dim light bulb still dimmed regardless, it was old and it let out smoke at times. There were some of her strippers clothes, they were on the floor. They seemed dirty and old too. The room smelt like it always did. It was more cold. The window hasn't been opened in months. The floor was dirty and messy. It seemed old and odd. The room was how she left it, nothing was removed or taken away. She sighed and rolled her eyes. "No one came here." She said She tried to move and realised she was in chains. The bulb became clearer. She saw herself naked. Her hands were hurting. She couldn't move. If she did; she was going to lose her hands or her legs. Her panic attack started and she knew where this was heading. She had be
She tried to move her shoulders together to cover her nipples. He gave a cold look. "Your hands behind your back, now!" He ordered and she did as told. They were small and pointy. He loved it. He teased it and touched them."You are a slut! You like this don't you? That's why you wore such a short top." He said as he touched her nipples. She moaned. "Agggh" she moaned softly, it was under her breath. It was pleasing but he wanted to punish her "I better not hear a sound." He growled as he touched her still. She moaned again. He laughed hard, he knew it was hard for her. He teased her some more. He wanted her to beg, he was in the mood to inflict pain on her. He needed to transfer his aggression and he was on the right path. Alex.It had been two days, Alex was on the bed, he was sick, he was bedridden but that wasn't what he was concerned about. After Luna had spoken some words to him he knew what to expect. Instead he was worried about Luna, the last meeting he had with Gabriel and
Nancy parents died, they were killed. Gabriel knows who killed her parents but he pretended in order to have her by his side. She believed he was her saviour and he had always been. She owed him and he knew, he knew what he was doing and how far he has done it. Gabriel was interested in the business of Alex. He wanted to know how he was making the money and how he was making sales. The space he had with Alex was on he had never expected and even more now that Zeke knew him personally. He nodded and smiled. Nancy was good at her jobs, she just loved doing things her own way. *******ZekeHe anxiously awaited the arrival of Alex, Zeke was somewhat happy and interested in the details. Alex had been making sales and they were all impressive and notable. Zeke stood up, he was in a boardroom. He wasn't alone, he couldn't be. The trio won't be complete, will it? He called for Gabriel. He had good news to share with him. He wanted to rub it in actually. He wanted to tell him how Alex had b
"Oh I do, I meant every word, every syllable and every darn letter. You should know meeting you was the biggest mistake in my whole damn life and just so you know I wish you were actually dead.!" The doctor added that Luna could have sworn she wished he dropped dead; she would have loved to kill him and make sure he had no means of surviving.She went through her bag in anger and ransacked it, she looked for her glasses and her mask, alongside her face cap. She stood up and wore it. Without a word she left his office and slammed the door. She sighed and raked her hair as she walked out of the hospital. Luna was filled with rage. She didn't believe that she sat down and listened to the horrible words that the man had said to her. She got into the car and slammed the door, she ignored if the car was dead expensive or if it could have some problems from how. She slammed it. She didn't care, she dropped her bag and held the steering wheels. She screamed, she screamed her loudest. She w
