Elise's Point of View

"You must be joking right now," I said. I couldn't collect myself from what he said. Out of nowhere, why did he say those words? It is not even hot but I am trying to fan myself using my hands. It's just unbelievable.

His face tells me he is serious about it and I wanted to run right now. I wanted to hide from him. I wanted to disappear. What is happening?

"I am serious..."

"But..." I couldn't even construct a sentence. I couldn't tell him directly that even though I liked him, it is not going any deeper than liking, admiring, or what you call it. "I said, I'm up for hook up, Mr. Lauren, but I don't want a relationship with my client," I said, trying to explain to him what I have always wanted from the start.

I couldn't find any other words to explain things to him and just straight said what I wanted to say because he knows it and he agreed.

"I understand and I know. Jared will process the payment for you on this vacation. I shall take my leave."

    Kristoff's Point of View"Did she accept the car?" I asked Jared first things first when I saw him walking towards me. I spotted him with someone when he came in but I didn't mind it. "Gotta scare her first before doing the deal," he casually said."What did you do?" I asked him, calmly. I know Jared and I trust whatever he did before making her accept that gift. He took a sip of my drink. He smirked at me and winked. "Not a biggie... Just keep your nose out of it," he replied. He eyed the woman sitting on my lap.I tapped the woman's back. Making her go away. Jared asked me to meet here and that woman specifically went to me after I sat down. I don't want to throw her and just let her do what she wants to do."What exactly did you do? You should have a proper plan before confessing, man!" "Shut up!" He just laughed at me and nodded. I don't want to talk about it. I know I was wrong. I don't want to blame her for my recklessness. That question suddenly came out of my mouth. It was

    Amidst the long day that is full of work, I still have the chance to look at the beautiful sun that is setting down slowly. There is so much work to do and I can't go home. I guess I have to spend another night in this room full of papers and another night to be stressed.I stretched out my hands. I took off the reading glass I am wearing to relax my eyes a bit. I heard a light knock on the door. I put my reading glass back on. A few seconds later the door opened. I focus my sight on the paper. I firmly hold it in my left hand while my right hand automatically gets a hold of the pen near to it. "Good afternoon, Mr. Lauren. The meeting is about to start, sir. They are all waiting for you," Jared reported. The meeting slipped out of my mind. I almost forgot that I still have to deal with my grandfather who wants nothing but to make me marry a woman who has a son already. I don't know what's gotten into him for giving me a marriage full of fucking trash.“They? Shouldn’t that be him on

    Just like what she said. She let me enjoy the night but she was clinging to my arm, all night. She told me her name and it took me by surprise when her name triggered the woman I wouldn’t want to remember yet I kept on looking for.“I am so-sorry.” The glass on my hand slipped. The sound of shattered glass echoed the place. Coincidentally, the music stopped playing which made the people turn at us. “Are you okay?” Elise asked. She immediately held my hand, checking if I was hurt. She is a bit tipsy from the glasses of alcohol she just had but the concerned voice envelops her. I looked at the woman, lowering her head down as she keeps on saying sorry to me. “What happened?” Jared asked. Looking at me then turn his head at the woman who keeps on saying sorry. “Just an accident,” I casually said. Wiping off Elise’s tear. I don’t know what happened that made her cry. I can hear the unclear voices of people talking. I stood up and look at Jared. “Take care of her. I will just answer thi

    "Let's head back," I said to Theo. My voice sounds so disappointed at something and I can't stop being disappointed at how my grandfather can do that to me. "What's wrong?" I worriedly asked him when I saw him winched. "Nothing, sir. Just having a migraine but don't worry. I can hold it. These are your clothes." I got the paper bag from his hand before closing the door for him. I took my time taking a bath because I already know my grandfather is mad at me. There's no need to be cautious with time already. The smell of the strong flavor of soap spreads through my body. I looked at myself in the small mirror and stop to look at the scar on my body. I quickly looked away when some memories started to appear. "Let's stop by for a coffee," I told Theo and looked at the opened cafe. As expected, many people are dining in. I was lucky enough to get a table. I looked at Theo ordering coffee for us. My eyes wondered at the people. Some are just casually sitting while taking a sip from the

    Five years ago…“Hi, gentleman.”I looked at where the fine voice came from. She is standing next to me while holding a glass of vodka in her hand. Shaking it a bit while staring at me, giving me her best seductive smile. I just smirk and pulled her. She gasped. “Surprised?” I naughtily asked.I didn’t wait for her response and kissed her immediately. My hand slowly snaked on her tiny waist while the other hand was searching for her drink. When I found it, I slowly put it on the table. “I guess, you don’t need this already,” I whispered near her ear.I bit my lower lip, stopping myself to make a move in such a public place. “Let’s find a room,” I whispered again. I heard her chuckle before nodding at me.She stood up and then turned her head at me. “You looked so fucking hot and handsome at the same time,” she said using her flirty voice. I just give her a smirk and held her hand before she pulled me out of the club.When we were outside the club, I saw her immediately pressing the ke

    I closed my eyes because of a sudden flash of light from the car. My knees are shaking and my heart beats faster. Even with the shaking knees, I tried my best not to kneel on the ground. I slowly opened my eyes and looked down. I put my hands on both of my knees to stop them from shaking.“Hey, gentleman. Are you okay?” An angelic voice suddenly asked me. The electricity traveled through my body when I felt her hand on my shoulder. “Hold on to me,” she added and just like that, my hand automatically went to her shoulder, resting.We walked to a nearby bench. “Are you okay?” she asked one more time when we both took a seat next to each other.Instead of answering her question, I smiled at her. “You looked so beautiful,” I complimented. “Too bad, I can’t see your face fully,” I added. She chuckled and looked at me. Her eyes are beautiful… “Your eyes…”“Why? What about my eyes?”“It’s too damn beautiful, lady.” Fuck! I haven’t seen eyes so beautiful as that. Light green eye color… “You

    Elise's Point of View“Told you!” Maia giggled, looking at the man who can’t keep his eyes off me. “I think he is the one who commented earlier. He is Mr. Lauren. I also heard that he was the one who kept on requesting your presence---”“Stop it, Maia. Serve that drinks already before we get fire,” I said, cutting her off.Maia and I are friends even before I came here. It just happened that she was working here as well. That's why I decided to lengthen my stay here. I was to work for only two months until I have money to walk away from everything but Maia wanted me to stay longer.“Talk to him,” she whispered before she finally left. I want to tell her I already did last night but I don’t want her to keep on talking about him. She rarely ships with me someone but once she did, she wouldn’t stop teasing.I sighed while fixing the tiny dress I am wearing. I can see his silhouette from my peripheral vision coming towards me. I pretended to brush my hair using my finger, looking onto my

    Elise's Point of View"Why are you in a rush?" Maia asked.I just glared at her. She didn't wake me up. I told her to wake me up for lunch so I can cook for us. "I told you to wake me up. You know that my alarm is useless," I told her.She just laughed at me. "I already cooked for both of us, Elise. No need to worry and I know you were tired from grinding your hips last night," she said, teasing me.I glared at her and stood up. I quickly took a bath before I went back to our room. This apartment has only one room. Maia voluntarily helped me and she almost gave up all of her belongings just to give me a cozy place. She even lets me use her car, saying that her friend always gives her a ride that's why her car is of no use. She knows about my situation that's why she never lets me pay for this rent."Hey...""What?" I asked her while drying my hair with my towel. I don't have a blower because I am trying to save my ass that I don't want to spend my money on buying things that I want.

    Elise's Point of View"Don't worry, I came prepared," he whispered.I was lost for a moment. What? What was he saying? I made sure that my mask is still hanging tightly on my face before I turn around to face him. And there, I saw him... Closing his eyes with a piece of the blindfold in his hand. "Cover my sinful eyes, baby," he stated. I was left dumbfounded. "What?" I can help but voice it out. I get what he meant by that but... "I promise not to look at you so you won't feel uncomfortable. Now, cover my eyes, baby."I don't exactly know why he came up with this idea. I can't help but gave him my sweetest smile even though he can't see it. "Silly," I muttered. I snatched the blindfold from his hand and reached for his eyes to cover it. Who would have thought that this gentleman right here can be this sweet and thoughtful?"I am just respecting you, babe."We are still naked in front of each other and I can't help but notice his muscular torso. His huge buddy in between that ton

    Elise's Point of ViewHe must be pretty exhausted from work. I am taking a glance at him from time to time to check if he was still okay. Luckily, I was able to track our destination through GPS. I sighed heavily. I don't want to be attached to anyone anymore but I don't know why I am suddenly feeling this way toward him.My past is telling me to trust no one. I know bullets are on their way to my head but I will try to avoid that bullet from being buried deep inside me. I will escape because that's the only way to survive.Having been accused of killing someone for years is still vague to me. I didn't do it. Years ago. I was living with my foster parents. Serving them to lessen the burden I have been feeling. The guilt that they had to raise me and spend some money on me. I had to do all the jobs. I had to do it to save myself from drowning in the sea of guilt but...I don't know what happened. I don't know how it ended up with blood swimming on the floor. I don't know how it happ

    Elise's Point of View"Are you free tomorrow night?" he asked.He woke up pretty late. I don't want to disturb him and just let him sleep until he wakes up. I smirked at his question. "Are you asking me out? Or is that an indirect question if my body is available?" I boldly fired back.He snapped and laughed at me. I saw how his torso moved when he laughed. He is still sitting on the bed while I am standing at the door not far from him. Enough for us to have a good view of each other.The only thing that is covering his body is the bedsheet. If he dared to make a move, I would highly appreciate it so that I can see how that buddy of his is doing under that sheet."You are too bold and I like it.""As long as you pay me. I am available. I don't want to spend time with you if it turns into a waste," I smirked and bit my lower lip when he stared at my nipples. I am wearing a see-through shirt. It is the best way to seduce him. I know he would fall for it and I am right.He stares at it f

    Elise's Point of ViewThe loud cheering still echoed in my ear as I sway my hips to the music and make eye contact with anyone. I am mourning for something, my heart is mourning. I feel like I will burst into tears any minute right now but I managed to finish the dance without breaking down.The manager greeted me with a smile on her face. She motioned me to come to her side. I pulled the robe on my feet when I felt the coldness of the night. She patiently waited for me to come to her. When she couldn't take it anymore because I am working like a turtle, she went to me and I think it was good news. I can tell by seeing her face."As you have requested, I personally told Mr. Kristoff Lauren about what you told me and he immediately put the money down!" she giggled making the other people turn their faces to us but she doesn't care about them.She pulled me, I mean dragged me to the end of the corner of the staff room. "He's at the back. You can meet up with him. I told no one about you

    Elise’s Point of ViewMaia didn’t come home the next morning. I was anxiously waiting for her. I couldn’t sleep last night. I was busy talking and teasing Kristoff while waiting for Maia to come home but she didn’t. Maybe she is with her fling again. I don’t have an idea because she didn’t tell me and I am not planning to ask her about her personal life.I yawned as I looked at the time. This time, sleepiness visits me in the daytime. My eyelids started to fall slowly. My vision become blurry as small tears covered it when I yawned. My heart jumped out when I heard my phone ringing, wasn’t expecting that. I lazily looked at the caller and found it is an unknown number. Who would call me at this hour? It is too early and I know that this is not Kristoff because I saved his digits. Maia would never call me as well without texting me beforehand and she rarely uses someone's phone, she would use someone's phone if it is only important. I put it down and waited for it to stop. I moved m

    Elise’s Point of View“You’re here,” Maia said.A man came out of the room with his hair messed up. I got a glance at his upper body because he was still trying to put his clothes on. I smiled and nodded at him when his eyes met mine. He stopped and then looked at Maia. “My roommate,” Maia shortly said.I am too tired to make a move. I was looking at them while lying on the sofa. I don’t care about Maia’s teasing eyes on me. I can’t change my clothes because they were inside the room and I don’t want to get in just to change my clothes. I am comfortable wearing Kristoff’s clothes as well so I don’t mind.He nodded at me. When he was done putting his clothes on, he bid goodbye and left the apartment. “Did you hear us fucking?” Maia asked.What does she expect? Her room is soundproof? Of course, I heard them. “Let me sleep,” I said, ignoring her question and closing my eyes again. She didn’t say anything and just let me fall asleep. It is time to go back to the club, so she will be prep

    Elise’s Point of ViewKristoff calmed himself while staring at me. He can’t take his eyes off me since we came in here. We are here inside a room and judging by the design of this four-walled room, I can say that he is the owner of this. The ambiance of the room is very much like him, it is solemn and mysteriously dark. “How many women did you bring here?” I asked while looking at the bedside table where he put the shoulder bag that I brought with me. “Can’t count them,” he casually said.Then, it’s good to hear that. I don’t want to hear him say that I am the only woman he brought here because I know he isn’t a saint to ignore the lust that his body needs. “Let’s talk a little more, Mr. Lauren,” I told him when I suddenly felt his fingertip on my thigh. “I was just resting my hand,” he reasoned out. “Your eyes are really beautiful. I know our genes together won’t be a bad combination at all. What do you think?”“Your house is too cozy,” that’s what I commented instead. “Are you li
