“Do you want to come up and have coffee?” Zada asked, her heart racing. She knew what she was doing and she was ready for it. She knew Liam would wait however long she wanted. And now she trusts him completely. All her insecurities are gone. And she is ready to take the next step in their relationship.“Uh I would love to.” Liam said, nervous for the very first time in his life.He parked the motorcycle in the apartment parking slot and with his heart, making a tattoo against his ribcage, he followed Zada towards the elevator, not knowing the storm that was coming their way.As Zada and Liam stepped into the elevator, a comfortable silence hung in the air, filled with anticipation and a hint of excitement. The soft hum of the elevator's machinery was the only sound between them, but their eyes spoke volumes. Zada couldn't help but steal glances at Liam, admiring the way his dark hair slightly tousled in the wind, and the faint hint of a smile tugging at his lips.Liam, on the other ha
******MATURE CONTENT AHEAD. READ AT YOUR OWN RISK*******"Mirrie, I don't want to rush things, but I also don't want to waste any more time. I want to be with you, to share my life with you. If you are ready, I would like us to take this journey together, one step at a time."Zada's heart swelled with emotion as she squeezed his hand, tears of happiness glistening in her eyes. "Liam, I am ready. I am ready to take that step with you. I want to see where this journey leads us."They leaned in closer, their lips meeting in a gentle, sweet kiss that sealed their unspoken commitment to each other.The sweet kiss soon turned into something intense and passionate. The chemistry between them was so tangible they could taste it.“Take your hair down, Mirrie..” Liam mumbled, as he peppered kisses down the column of her throat.She reached behind her, as if in a dream and pulled her hair loose. It fell around her shoulder in waves. He reached out, taking a long strand and twining it around his
“Don’t press the doorbell. We want to surprise Zada. Open the door with the passcode.” Zahir said and Emily rolled her eyes."Oh, how brilliant, Zahir! Because I totally didn't know that pressing the doorbell might alert Zada to our presence. Thank you for that groundbreaking insight."Zahir smirked. "You're welcome, Emily. Always here to educate you on the finer points of subtlety."Zahir quickly entered the passcode when Emma shared it, and the door quietly clicked open."Wow, Zahir, I am amazed at your secret agent skills." Emily couldn't help but mutter sarcastically under her breath. "Well, Emily, some of us have a natural talent for espionage. It's a gift." Zahir shot her a mock-innocent look.As they stepped inside the apartment, Emily couldn't help but glance around, taking in their surroundings. The plan was to surprise Zada, and that meant tiptoeing around and avoiding any loud noises. Zahir led the way, moving stealthily toward the living room. Others followed, their silen
‘Consider it an ultimatum or anything you wish it to be, Zada. But from now on, it is going to be either him or us.’The word kept ringing in her ears even after two days.Two damn days since her brothers talked to her. And it felt like two bloody centuries.How could they not talk to her? Don’t they miss her.She was missing them like crazy. In their entire twenty years of life, they have never passed a day without talking to each other.And now, two days have passed.Forty eight hours.Two thousand eight hundred and eighty minutes.One lakh, seventy two thousand eight hundred seconds….Oh h*ll! This is only getting more miserable.Don’t they know she can’t live without talking to them?She sat under the huge tree in the campus. She could feel fresh tears making its way down her cheeks.She took her phone and dialled Zian’s number. The call was rejected on the second ring. She then tried Zahir’s number. The call was rejected on the very first ring.The next second, she received a tex
Liam was frustrated beyond belief. He couldn’t believe that Zahir and Zian would so mercilessly cut their beloved sister out of their life.It has been two days since that evening when Zada went to confront her brothers.They had shut the door on her face and Zada was heartbroken by their behaviour.She had cried her heart out, sitting on the floor outside their bedroom.It was evident that they could hear her cries from inside and they didn’t come out to check on her and that made Liam more furious.How could they do this to their sister?“Enough of the crying, Zada.” Liam said, as he pulled her up from the bed where she was curled up in for the last two days.“I miss them..” Zada cried and Liam hugged her tightly.“I told you to tell them that you choose them. I would have made things better with time.” Liam said once again.“I didn’t want to lie to them anymore.” Zada said softly.Zada had spent the last two days in a state of despair. Her brothers' rejection and harsh words echoed
Emma walked towards Zian anxiously. It has been a few days since Zian talked to her. Specifically since the day they caught Liam and Zada together. On one side, she was missing him terribly and on the other side she was angry at him for putting Zada through hell. Every moment since that day, Zada had been crying. It is hell to sit by and watch her cry for her brothers. She found Zian in the corridor near the library. “Zi - Zi,” Emma called out as she hurried towards him. Zian looked up and saw Emma hurrying towards her. He was furious with her too. For hiding Zada’s relationship with Liam from them. How did she even manage to keep it a secret? She is not someone who is capable of keeping it to herself. And if she had managed to keep it a secret, she must have taken deliberate and conscious effort to do so. Which means she had knowingly set out to keep him in the dark. “What do you want, Emma?” Zian asked angrily, as he started walking ahead, without waiting for him. Emma rushed
“Oh god! What have you done?” Zada asked in horror, seeing the bloodied look on Liam.She could see the cuts and bruises on Liam’s face and body and she got really worried.“I am sorry, Mirrie. When Emily called and told me about what happened, I couldn’t help it. I had no intention of getting into a physical fight. It just happened.” Liam said apologetically. He knows how much Zada loves her brothers and he knows she would be angry with him for getting into a fight with them.“You were supposed to get on their good book, Liam. Not the other way around.” Zada said furiously as she dabbed the cotton with antiseptic on his bruise. Liam hissed lighty at the slight stinging.“Don’t tell me it is hurting. It wouldn’t hurt as much as it would have hurt when you got into a physical brawl with my brothers.” Zada said furiously as she applied more antiseptic on his bruise.Damn! An angry girlfriend is total terror.“It isn’t hurting. These bruises and wounds are nothing..” Liam said in an offh
“Call Liam..” Zahir demanded as he pushed past Zada into the apartment. Hearing the voice, Liam, with the patch up works on him, came to the living room.Zahir’s lips thinned in annoyance when their doubt was confirmed. Liam really was with Zada for the last two hours.“Now what?” Liam asked tiredly, as he took a seat on the couch.“Zada, do you know that Liam has been seriously involved with a girl whose name starts with M? Liam had even discussed that with Zian..” Zahir said and waited for the argument to break out…“Seriously? This is what you ran in for?” Liam asked sarcastically.“What? You claim to be in love with my sister. But you already once told Zian that the girl you love is named with the letter M.” Zahir said and Zian nodded agreeing to him.“I meant Zada only..” Liam said calmly.“Don’t think of making up any stories..” Zahir warned and Liam rolled his eyes.“Stop being prejudiced for a moment, can you?” Liam asked.“Tell us then, Liam. I remember having a discussion on
