Tangled Desires Chapter 16
Fear may linger in the unknown, but so does the potential for endless possibilities. -Unknown. |A L E E Z A|Life is so unpredictable; one moment, you're peacefully sleeping, and the next, you're thrust into the adventure of a lifetime. Just like now,I had confidently told Kirill that I would find my own way, and here I am, shouting for help, hoping against hope that he hasn't gone too far and will come back. Because as much as his anger, no matter how profound, is better than my current situation.And I have no idea who dug this pit in such a deserted jungle. What did they intend by digging it? In the pit where I've fallen, all I can do is hope that no wild animal passes by, or else they'll have a ready-made meal served on a plate. In the middle of the night, I don't think anyone other than wild animals will be around here."Someone help!" I screamed again, the darkness around me only intensifying my unease.Due to the plaster on my

It's a profound realization when the villain of your story transforms into a character, full of nuances and contradictions. He wasn't bad; he was merely a man navigating the complexities of his own narrative. -Unknown. |A L E E Z A|The next four days passed with the speed of a plane. Kirill still lives in the same house as mine, that means my house itself. Because my right hand decided to play hooky, leaving me to fend for myself. Our talks? Well, they're more like nods and those awkward glances you give when you accidentally make eye contact with a stranger.Since that night in the scary forest, we haven't argued much. We haven't argued at all. We just simply ignore each other's existence. Well, it is not as simple as it sounds because whenever Kirill is in the same vicinity as mine, I quickly sense him and I hate it. I hate it how I am always quick to feel him in the room even before he enters it. "Need a hand?" Kirill asked, yesterda

I carry the weight of my existence, a burden even to those who love me. In the silence of my struggle, I find solace in tears, for they speak the heaviness my words cannot convey. -Unknown. |A L E E Z A|Hallucination has always been a foreign concept to me, despite my understanding of the word. However, that perception seems to be changing at this very moment because, I think I am hallucinating now. No, I am pretty sure I am hallucinating. Why else would Kirill, a man who regards me with a gaze suggesting he'd contemplate snapping my neck if given the chance, be here rescuing me from Niall, who is no less of an asshole?"Stay out of it, King." Niall seethed through gritted teeth, addressing Kirill with his laat name, his eyes focused on me with sinister ideas in them. I might or might not shudder at the dark look in those eyes.I acknowledge that I grew up in a world where people faced worse, but since it was never directed at me, I grew up like a mafia princess—sheltered, loved,

We don't see things as they are. We see things as we are. -Anais Nin. |A L E E Z A|“Is it really you, or am I dreaming?” I questioned, gazing at the unexpected figure before me, someone who had no business being here yet.“I take it you missed me,” he chuckled, a melodic sound that echoed in the room, resonating with his own striking beauty that bordered on the edge of adorability.Without a second thought, I eagerly rushed towards him, the air thick with anticipation, and circled my one good arm around him in a bone-crushing hug. I might not have known Lev for the longest time, but in that moment, he embodied the most pure and lovable soul I had ever encountered."I'm so happy you're back," I expressed, the words hanging in the air like a delicate melody, my arm reluctant to release him."Same," he replied, his voice a comforting resonance in the quiet room.As I pulled away from the hug, I met his warm, sand-brown eyes with my own gr

Her presence is a captivating haze that clouds my every intention. -Unknown. |K I R I L L|I hate people. I despise human species with the core of my heart, except a few selected one, of course. And, there are a fucking lot of them for my liking. I reluctantly joined the gathering, my brother's persistent pestering dragging me into a crowd I preferred to avoid. Surrounded by an array of personalities, some clumsily dancing, others indulging in the free-flowing alcohol, I couldn't help but feel out of place.My disdain deepened as I scanned the room, my brother conspicuously absent, probably lost in flirting with random woman. Out of the two of us, Lev is said to be highly extrovert but only with certain people. I am aware of his sunshine nature that's why I like to keep watch on him as much as I could from behind the curtains, without being noticed. I was lost in my own thoughts when the loud cheering from the dance floor disturbed t

His dark eyes took me in, and I wondered what they would look like if he fell in love. -F. Scott Fitzgerald.|A L E E Z A|"One black coffee," Anna ordered and I stood by her side, holding her bag and my books. Lectures ended early today and we had nothing else to do so we decided to spend some time in cafeteria before heading home. After all, company is always better than unwanted loneliness. Anna takes the cup of coffee from the counter and heads to the empty table with me. I do not think twice before putting the bags down on the table and stretching my hands. My right hand is good now, its been a week since we got it out of the plaster. It was a little difficult to bring it back in use at first, specially when it kept hurting herr and there at slightly abrupt movements, but with the help of Lev and Kirill, who basically started living with me those days helped a lot. Though, Kirill was not of much help when Lev was around. Anyways, they have m

Now that I am free to be myself, who am I? -Mary Oliver. |A L E E Z A|If someone would have told me my life would turn out this crazy. I swear on the box of kit kat that is hidden inside my closet that I would never ever have taken birth in this crazy world.Kirill, who I assumed to be not the type of movie person is sitting by my side, engrossed in the movie like it is some sort of murder documentary. It is just action. A punch here and a kick there. What is so fucking interesting about it? Lev threw his hands in the air at the next action and spoke, "Oh, look at that brilliant move! I didn't know action heroes had PhDs in physics." He said sarcastically, earning a stink eye from Anna. They just love to annoy the shit out of each other. "Yeah, because defying gravity is a common skill, right?" I backed up Lev, because honesty, what the fuck is this shit. Anna stared at me with disbelief on her face, if one looked at her right now they

I will not water myself down to make me more digestible for you. You can choke. -Unknown. |A L E E Z A|In the doorway of the kitchen, he stood, arms folded over his chest, leaning casually against the doorframe with legs crossed. His presence exuded a charismatic devilry, a demeanor he wore with habitual ease.His expression remained blank, but his gaze bore into me, probing for unsaid truths. My hand instinctively pressed against my chest, feeling the rapid rise and fall beneath my palm. His sudden appearance had caught me off guard, inducing more of a terror than surprise. My heartbeat raced at a wild pace. "You scared me!" I exclaimed, attempting to steady my breath. His body features visibly relaxed before he said in response to my statement, "Didn't realize you were so easily startled." His calculated gaze, remained focused on my face as if searching for something elusive. Rolling my eyes, I turned around to put the cold pizza in

I dreamt of it. -Unknown. |A L E E Z A|I slipped into the peach-colored bridesmaid dress, feeling its soft fabric cascade down my body. The slit on my right leg added a touch of elegance, while my hair, tied up in a loose bun with a few locks framing my face, completed the look. I applied a swipe of lipstick, then turned to see Kirill, my boyfriend, dressed in his tuxedo, looking as handsome as ever.As he approached me, circling one arm around my waist, I couldn't help but smile up at him. Adjusting his tie, I felt his hand cup my cheek, his thumb caressing it gently. Leaning in, he cupped my jaw, and our lips met in a tender kiss. Despite the months that had passed since I was shot, I could still see the fear in Kirill's eyes, the fear of losing me.To dispel that fear, I wrapped my arms around his neck, deepening the kiss. I was unashamedly addicted to this man; he was my everything, filling every corner of my heart and soul. Breakin

In the end, the togetherness is all that matters. -Unknown. |K I R I L L|As I paced back and forth in front of the operation theater, my heart felt like it was caught in a vice grip, each beat echoing in my ears like a relentless drumbeat of dread. All I wanted was to hear the doctor come out and tell me that she was completely fine, that she was okay, that she was safe. But as I glanced down at my hands, still stained with her blood, the reality of the situation hit me like a sledgehammer to the chest.I saw the way she had slowly closed her eyes, surrendering herself to the darkness, and my chest tightened with a pain so sharp it felt like I was being stabbed with a thousand knives. But she must not know me well enough if she thinks I would ever let her go so easily. No, I would fight tooth and nail to keep her with me, to bring her back from the brink of death and into the light once more.As I glanced around at the worried faces o
Tangled Desires Chapter 75
Is it the end or the beginning? -Unknown. |K I R I L L|My pulse raced as the tension thickened in the room, suffocating us in its grip. "Shoot him, Aleeza," Nicolas's voice cut through the silence like a knife, commanding her to take action, but her hesitation spoke volumes, a silent protest against the violence that threatened to consume us all.I watched in disbelief as her fingers trembled on the trigger, the weight of her decision bearing down on her like a heavy burden. Lorenzo's arrival only added to the chaos, his voice a jarring intrusion in the tense standoff."What the fuck is happening here?" Lorenzo's words echoed in the room, his eyes scanning the scene with a mixture of confusion and concern."Stay back, Lorenzo," Nicolas's response was swift and dismissive, his tone laced with authority.Lorenzo's plea for reason fell on deaf ears as Nicolas's resolve hardened. But her trembling hand betrayed her fear, a silent plea

But if the story is over, why am I still writing the pages. -Unknown. |K I R I L L|As the echoes of gunfire reverberated through the mansion, I wasted no time in arming myself, reaching for my gun tucked away in the wardrobe. It felt familiar in my grip, a cold weight that offered both comfort and reassurance in the face of danger.I spared a fleeting thought for Lev, grateful that I had sent him back to college when news of the impending war reached our ears. He may have grown up in this world of violence and bloodshed, but he had not been groomed for it like I had. It was a relief to know that he was safe, far away from the chaos that threatened to engulf us.With my weapon in hand, I rushed towards my father's room, my heart pounding with a mixture of anticipation and dread. I knew what awaited me on the other side of that door, and yet I pushed aside any doubts or fears that threatened to cloud my mind.As I entered the room, I found

He can never go unseen in a world where I exist, because, he is all I see. -Unknown. |A L E E Z A|As I paced back and forth in the dimly lit study room, my mind buzzed with thoughts of the impending war. The tension in the air was palpable, weighing heavy on my shoulders like a burden too heavy to bear alone. The news of the Russians' brazen attack on Lorenzo's warehouses and the theft of a rare piece from Nicolas had sent shockwaves through our family, igniting the flames of conflict that threatened to consume us all.Viktor Volkov's name hung in the air like a dark cloud, his reputation preceding him as a force to be reckoned with. The Russians were moving with the speed of light, leaving destruction and chaos in their wake. And yet, despite the looming threat, I couldn't bring myself to ask my brothers to show mercy or to slow down their plans. The war was not just between two gangs; it was a battle that involved hundreds, even thousa

Everything is fair between love and war. But what if the war happens for love itself? -Unknown. |K I R I L L|The days dragged on in a blur of solitude and emptiness. I hadn't spoken to my father since returning from Italy, my heart heavy with the weight of farewell unspoken. And Nikolay... Nikolay, once a trusted friend, now a betrayer who had shattered the fragile trust between us. The knowledge that he had revealed my feelings for Aleeza, leading to her abduction, weighed heavily on my soul.I missed her desperately – her warmth, her scent, her smile, every little detail that made her who she was. But more than that, I missed the possibility of a future with her, a life where we could be together without the shadow of our families' rivalry looming over us.I sat alone in my room, the glow of the laptop screen illuminating the darkness that had settled within me. Every attempt to devise a plan to reunite with Aleeza ended in defeat, eac

The pain of this separation, who else can truly fathom? Only one whose heart has burned with the flames of agony can comprehend the anguish within. -Unknown. |A L E E Z A|The morning light filtered through the curtains, casting a soft glow on the room. As I stirred awake, I reached out instinctively to the other side of the bed, only to find it empty and cold. Panic surged through me, and I sat up abruptly, scanning the room for any sign of him. Desperation fueled my actions as I checked the bathroom and every corner of the room, but he was nowhere to be found.The realization hit me like a wave, crashing against the shores of my heart. He had left. The emptiness in the room mirrored the void that now consumed me. I refused to believe it, clinging to the hope that maybe he was just in another room or perhaps getting breakfast. But deep down, I knew.My eyes fell upon a paper, neatly tucked under the paperweight on my side table. Hastily,

It was not supposed to end like this. It was supposed to be a beginning of our story. -Unknown. |K I R I L L|The room seemed to constrict around me as I took in the sight of her bandaged arm – an inadvertent canvas of her silent suffering. Each wound, a stark reminder of the pain she had chosen to bear. My gaze lingered, tracing the contours of her hurt etched into her delicate skin.As she recoiled from my touch, an impenetrable distance yawned between us. Her words, a heavy verdict, hung in the air, condemning me for the betrayal she believed I'd committed. The truth, fragile and earnest, seemed elusive, slipping through my grasp like sand through fingers.Desperation clawed at my throat as I sought to bridge the emotional chasm. Her guarded skepticism stood as an impenetrable fortress, and the question that hung between us – "What if you're lying again?" – echoed the haunting specter of doubt.My plea, a trembling admission of wi

And, between all the misunderstandings the line between the truth and the lies blurred. -Unknown. |A L E E Z A|The breakfast table served as a stage for our daily performance of familial normalcy. I draped myself in a full-sleeved top, a feeble attempt to conceal the secret beneath.I sensed Lorenzo's watchful gaze. "Full sleeves in this weather?" he queried. A forced smile played on my lips as I replied, "Just felt like wearing it."An unspoken agreement lingered in the air, urging everyone to avoid delving deeper into the complexities veiled by my seemingly mundane choice.Yet, for me, each day was an unspoken battle. The small cut that marked the beginning had evolved into a clandestine ritual—a silent plea for respite from the storm within. I had a cut on my wrist for every night, when I begged to sleep without pain and requested the almighty above to help me, to save me. But when nothing helped me, I helped myself in The way tha
