Eve woke up feeling like she just had the best sleep in her entire life. There was even a little smile painted on her lips though she felt her lips especially swollen today. Even her breast seemed sore…Her eyes met a pair of cold squinting eyes. And with the sight of him, guilt immediately overwhelmed her. and it that guilt was clearly shown with her smile. “What happened last night?” she asked, remembering the last memory of her being kissed by Lucas. And of course, she already guessed what happened after. That’s why she’s guilty.The mad Lucas stood up from the couch near the bed, and stood beside her. “Nothing. Just a single naïve girl who dared to sleep after provoking a pitiful man. And the man ended up barely controlling himself. He even almost ended up taking that clueless sleeping girl as his own…”Lucas’s eye squinted down at her.Eve shivered at his words. Though she intended to hook up with a random guy, it wasn’t her p

Days had passed with both Lucas and Eve never leaving the house. So besides watching the television, constantly bickering each other, and teasing or bullying Simon when he comes over, they had nothing else to do. Still, it showed Eve the kind of Lucas in a different light. She never expected to experience living a normal life with someone. Without the pressure coming from her dad as well as guarding against her evil step-mom. However, in one midnight, Lucas woke up hearing some subtle noises. Though he stayed in the room with Eve since something almost happened between them, he knew not to cross the line until she initiated herself. thus, he slept on the sofa across her bed. He sat up, glancing at the empty bed. Half of the blanket was sitting on the floor. “Eve…” he mumbled, losing all his sleepiness. She didn’t leave, did she? After he asked about her plan last time, he didn’t know why but he had been having a constant thought of her sudde

Lucas was dreaming the night before.He's dreaming of seeing Eve standing at the door while he sat still at the bed. It seemed as if the night was wild by the look of the room.The blankets and pillows were on the floor. Even pieces of clothes were recklessly thrown everywhere.However, as he sat there still, Eve's expression was strange. Her eyes were the most beautiful but it seemed cold. Like as if it didn't recognize him."Eve..." he whispered, but then, she suddenly turned back. She opened the door and started walking away."Eve!" he called one more time but again, she didn't even glanced nor paused.His starting to feel scared and frustrated, stretching his arms to stop her. Or even to run after her. Yet, when he did, he just kept struggling.He cannot move to stop Eve! And now, she's leaving him!"No! EVE! STOP!" he yelled, veins breaking out from his temple. And in that moment, he jolted up from bed.Immediately, with sweat falling from his forehead , he turned around and tri

“Have you asked Shai?” Lucas shook his head as he looked down at the floor. He frustratedly combed his hair between his long fingers, pulling it at the back of his head. It had been hurting since the morning he woke up and found that Eve was gone. Seeing his reaction, Simon tapped his shoulder. Still, Lucas gave no response. “I will call her.” He was gone for a while, only to return with a hopeless expression. when Lucas looked up at him, he already knew his answer. He stood up, grabbed his black jacket from the sofa, and walked towards the door. “Where are you going?!” Simon hurriedly asked, worried that he might be thinking of intruding on Eve’s father's mansion. Fortunately, he got it wrong. Lucas shortly replied. “I’ll look for her in Piacere. She might be there.” “Then, I’ll go with you,” Simon suggested and even without his agreement, he get his car key and went with him. Simon thought Lucas was following but when he sensed th

She’s not in Piacere. Not even in the old room, she stayed at first. Lucas even tried to call the phone he gave her but it was turned off. And right now, the darkness had already dominated the sky. Besides those places, Lucas cannot think of anywhere anymore where he could possibly find her besides her father’s house. And now, he’s near to breaking in just to search for her. Simon already guessed that so he suggested he’ll go instead. “I will be asking some of my friends to inquire whether she already came back to her father’s home.” Lucas shook his head, remembering a conversation he had once had with her. “No. She won’t go back there. Unless her father’s men found her and forced her back.” When he spoke, his teeth clashed against each other. and Simon was worried even more that he would really do what he feared. Lucas was still being chased because of the murder case. And if he got involved again in something, much least to offend a powerful man, i

Sorrowful yet beautiful eyes brimming with tears stared at Lucas and the familiarity of him with it brought him the same amount of pain it held. At first, he was angry. Indeed, he’s been madly furious of the impatient waiting he spent for her. however, now that she was standing right before him, he couldn’t utter even a single complaint or scolding. He was supposed to reprimand her. or even punish her for making him anxiously wait. Yet, how could he do that when she showed up at his door, drenched not only in the cold rain but also in tears? When her eyes held overwhelming pain and melancholia he never expected her to show to him? Immediately, without even him noticing, his dark expression softened. “Lucas…” Eve muttered, almost whimpering as she choked up with her own tears. She immediately run into his arms that Lucas opened for her, sensing she needed it. she was engulfed in a warm and protective embrace, where she felt the safest and warmed. Her

Eve really loves to sleep. and she does sleep a lot. If there’s one thing that Lucas learned about her when they lived together, that’s it. well, besides the fact that she cannot cook, of course. From one in the morning after she came home, she had slept straight until noon. The rain hadn’t stopped since, and it was reported that a typhoon was coming. With gray clouds and pouring rain, Eve woke up. She immediately felt her eyes stinging. It was also sore. And she need not to mention anymore what caused it. She was about to get up but suddenly realized she couldn’t. For she was wrapped around in a locking embrace. It was Lucas. And by the dark circles visible under his eyes, she could tell that it wasn’t long since he slept. Probably, he even barely slept since last night. ‘Did he take care of me since I came home? That he even cannot sleep…’ That question surprised Eve, herself. for she didn’t realize calling this place a home. Not even in her own father’

Lucas had long desired Eve. But besides desire, there’s something more he felt towards her that made him patiently wait for her until now.

In one second, women he wanted would serve themselves to him. run towards him. But how could those other women compare to Eve? And that was also the reason why he had already prepared, though unconsciously, to wait for her. until finally, she’d fall for him too. So, when Lucas heard what Eve just said, he was totally caught off guard.

Like… Why was he here? How did he know about Theo? Why was he out when he was supposed to be in prison?

“You aren’t my father’s mistress, too right? that’s why he let you in?” “Prrrkkk! WHAT THE HELL EVE?!” Shia stood up, eyes were almost popping out of her eye sockets with what she just heard. Of course, she’s a flirt but she won’t ever flirt with an old man! especially, Eve’s father. Although Shia’s face had paled so much from what she just said, Eve just crossed her legs as if she said nothing wrong and looked at her. “I am just stating a possibility. My dad would never let a stranger into his house for no reason. And if you’re his mistress, it will be no surprise since you are beautiful and a real catch. I would even love to live with you rather than his mistress, Livia.” In disbelief, Shia was left speechless. She sat on her chair, gobbling up all the wine left from her glass, and gawked at Eve with wide eyes. She

In your house?” “In. Their. House.” Eve put emphasis on her words since after all, she long had refused to call this place her own house/ home. Shia paused for a moment but replied as she blinked her long lashes away. “Well, I had my own ways…” “You aren’t my father’s mistress, too right? that’s why he let you in?” “Prrrkkk! WHAT THE HELL EVE?!” Shia stood up, eyes were almost popping out of her eye sockets with what she just heard.

Eve was awakened by an adorable angel-like boy in front of her. He looked somewhat annoyed, probably because she didn’t wake up only until he raised his voice. She also noticed that his tiny hands were cupping her cheeks. “Mommy is such a sleepy-head,” he grumbled with pouted lips. And instead of feeling scolded, she couldn’t help but giggle. Just when did you see someone scolding as cute as her son? “Fine, fine. Mommy will now get up, alright? Now, get off me,” she said with a laugh that made Theo’s brow crease even more. He’s really pissed now. Watching her like this, Eve had always wondered if Lucas would look the same if ever he gets annoyed too. because thinking back to when they were together, Lucas seemed to never

“You just said what?!” “I said, give me Morris Hierta’s number,” Eve repeated impatiently but it wasn’t what Shia was asking of. Thus, with the same impatient voice, she answered back, “No, not that one. It’s what you said before that.” Eve paused for a moment and thought of what she said before. She even combed her hair using her fingers since she had been thinking a lot since the day that Theo had disappeared. And trying to think further frustrates her. “You mean, me being back here?” “HELL YES!” That was Shias blurt out. It was obvious that she was already sulking for not telling her beforehand. “I’ve been convincing you for like ages to visit me and you never did even for once. And

‘What are you even thinking, Eve Rizzo? Did you just thought that Lucas would come and see Theo?’ 7 “You’re here. I was here to fetch Theo to a dinner but this guard stopped us. You’re not trying to take my grandson away from me, do you?” Eve was chocked by her own self. She could not believe what she just heard. Her father sounded as if sulking. Thus, she laughed. “How could I, dad? I think Theo loves you already. Isn’t it right, Theo?” She looked down at her son who had been waiting to gain her attention. Theo nodded and smiled wide. “Hmm! I love grandpa but I love mommy more! Do you love me too, Mommy?” “Of course! I love my Theo the most!” Eve was about to carry him but then, she was stunned when her father kneeled to level to Theo and then he carried him in his arms again. “Then let’s go! Grandpa will take you to a dinner even you love your mommy more.” Her dad walked away with Theo, giggling guiltily. After recovering fr

This son of hers… sometimes him being so intelligent in words and memory was too troublesome. Even his love for her can be sometimes too much. What was he thinking, trying to catch Lucas so he can bring him back in their home? To what? To let her hug Lucas instead of his picture? “Damn.” Eve cursed under her breath and run even faster. She just wanted to disappear right now. Such embarrassment… she couldn’t take it. As Lucas watch the woman running as she carried a little boy in her arms, he couldn’t help but grit his teeth. He was overwhelmed with mixed emotions. Anger. Disappointment. Longing. And desperation.

Theo. Where do you want to study?” At her question, Theo went and sat beside her, looking at the screen of her laptop. Those were lists of schools where he could study kindergarten. Even before Theo could understand things, Eve had always let him choose things in his life. And just like today, she was letting him pick at what school he’ll study. Although he’s just still five, Theo could already read and understand a lot of words. Though he knew far more than what Eve was aware of. Lifting his eyes at her mother, he pointed at the screen. And Eve read it. “Davidson Academy?”
