Irvin’s“Irvin, honey. Why are you not eating anything? Didn’t you like any of the food?”I waved my hands to Mrs. Evans. I’m too space out that I didn’t realize that I haven’t touched the food on my plate. “I’m alright, Mrs. Evans. The food all looks appetizing.” I don’t know if it sounded convincing but I just can’t get a hold of myself.Henrick’s hand rested on my leg and I felt his body lean closer to me. “Are you okay?” He whispered to my ear.I glanced towards his father. His eyes weren’t on us but I know that he’s watching us. Our every move. I without any seconds thought I brushed his hand off of me. He looks surprised at my behavior. “I’m fine.” I mouthed. Didn’t dare to make a sound. I was too scared. Thankfully, he just returned to his dinner. I don’t really want to argue with him. Especially in front of his parents but he’s pushing me to do so.“So Zef, do you have someone that you like?” Luckily, Mrs. Evans started a conversation with the other guests. Diverting the whole
Boone’s “What’s wrong?” I put my phone back in my pocket and glanced at Finn who asked me the question. He’s still drinking the coffee that he bought at the restaurant after dinner. Never even care if he’ll end up sleeping late because of this. “Did something happen? Why did you suddenly look nervous after seeing your phone?” He said while biting the tip of the straw. “It’s just weird. My mother suddenly keeps on calling me.” My brow furrowed as I thought of any possible reason why Emelie would give me ten missed calls in a span of an hour. Even Finn was surprised. He has known my mother for a long time. He witnessed from a doting parent, my mother turn to a neglected one. “Are you serious? Then have you answered any of her call.” I shook my head. Not that I do not care but something inside of me is pushing me not to answer it. Though the longer the time I choose not to mind her the more I want to know wha
Henrick’sThere’s only silence inside the car. Irvin was staring blankly at the glassed window of the car, leaving a big space between us. I don't have any idea why he's sullen. I only did it to go public with our relationship, so that there's no reason for us to hide our feelings for each other. Especially to my parents who seem to disapprove of this kind of relationship."Are you mad at me?" My voice was weak. He remained quiet. He didn't even glance at me. "I'm sorry, Vin. I should've told you first about my plan."His head slowly turned to my direction. Glaring at me. "Is that why you let me go with you even though I never wanted to join that dinner?" His eyes were red and he looks like he's about to cry any minute now.I burst into laughter. Not because he looks funny. But because he's too adorable when sulking. He's like a kid in a teenager's body. However my action was a big mistake. He sulked even more that his tears were on the verge of falling. I moved to the side and pulled
Third Person’s The moment that he heard the knob move Irvin instantly sat up. He was already laying on the bed when Henrick came in still in his cream long sleeves and khaki pants. His shoulders were down, eyes were staring lazily at the floor. Irvin wonders if it’s because of the dinner event or is it because of what Ran told him. He hooked his hand over his arm. “Is everything okay?” Henrick touched his hand resting on his arm. “I need to talk to you.” His tone was surprisingly solemn. Hearing this makes his heart beat faster than normal. Not in a romantic way. He watched him walk past him and seated on the end of the mattress. Still down and avoiding Irvin’s gaze. He wants to throw more questions but Irvin decides to follow him and settle beside him. Quietly waited for him to start talking again. When he does, Henrick glances at him, smiled. Their eyes met and Irvin could see the sadness on his face. “Is everything okay?” He asked him again. Henrick grabbed his
Third Person’s Set of eyes stared at him with confusion when they saw him walking at a brisk pace in the hallway. Any students that were standing or walking in the middle would instantly dodge on the side just to give him space. Unlike the other days that he would wander the third floor hallway, Henrick was exceptionally grim today that no one would dare to block his way or even say something when he passed them. He stopped in a group of students that were playing around. They were so busy teasing a nerd that they failed to notice his presence. “You have a minute?” Their smiles turn stern when they glance and realize who is talking behind them. Except for Dave that greeted Henrick with his mischievous grin. “Are you still up for business?” His brow raised. Dave smells money when an elite approaches him. “Well, it depends.” As usual they went to the rooftop to talk about business. Dave and two of his friends and Henrick. Afternoon classes will start in thirty minutes bu
Third Person’s “Meeting in ten minutes, Sir.” Eula reminded his employer for the third time. He stared blankly at the glass window and seemed not to hear her. She stealthily walked a few steps toward him. “Sir? Sir? Uhm…Sir,” She instantly straightened herself when he faced her on her third cal. “Meeting in ten minutes.” For years of reigning the company, this is the first time that Max experienced spacing out for hours. “Thanks, Eula.” He said to his secretary without any signs of moving himself to go to the meeting room. Although hesitant, Eula walked out of his office with so much burden. The meeting that was scheduled was important. They are working on expanding the company in Hong Kong, and the meeting would be pointless if the head of the company wouldn’t be there to approve the proposal. Max took a deep sigh. He slump his head on his palms and recall the things that happened last night. Just one night, everything started crumbling in front of him. The company a
Third Person’s Thirty passed five. At long last the chime echoed around the campus. This only means one thing, classes are now over. Time to go home. Irvin put all of his notes on his bag in haste and left the room. He ran towards his locker to get some of his stuff but stopped midway. He wanted to sprint back to the other end of the hallway but it was too late. He already saw his present. “Walker.” His voice alone sends shivers to his spine. Especially when he’s looking at him like that. That exact serious stare on his eyes. “W-what do you w-want?” He pulled his bag closer over his chest. Hoping it would be enough of a shield on whatever plans this man has. “Don’t worry. I’m just waiting for Evans here.” Irvin almost choked up from his choice of words. Just looking at Dave’s already given Irvin many reasons to worry. Which is the contrast of what he wanted to make Irvin felt. He stepped back. With the group of students present in the hallway, Irvin could somehow
Third Person’s “What the hell are you trying to do, Ivy?” She rubbed her hand on her dress that wrinkled from the wrestling that happened. Her lips grinned when she noticed Angie’s torn blouse. She felt satisfied to see the outcome that for a second she forgot about the armed men that Ivy brought inside the mansion. “And why brought so many bodyguards?” She finally asked. “Well,” Ivy cocked her head to the side. Instructing them to start the SOP that she told them back from her place. “I heard that Henrick isn’t the next heir of the company so…I decided to personally confirm this fact. Is that true?” She said in a mocking tone. Silvia cursed under her breath. She didn’t know how on earth she knew about it so soon that didn’t give her a chance to think of any way to break it to her without making her feel any disappointment at the change of plan. “Look, Ivy-dear—“ Her foot stepped towards Ivy as she tried to speak her reason but Ivy’s palm made her halt from speaking. “
"What about Moe?" I asked, staring at him dead in the eye. "How would I know when you never told me anything?" I emphasized every word clearly as I stated my displeasure towards him. I tried to raise my head to look at him but the falling tears made my vision blurry. "You want to know? You really want to know, right?" Henrick stalked towards me like a predator to its prey as he stood in front of me. His eyes blazing in fury. "Tell me!!" I yelled equally loud. I tried to suppress my growing anxiousness. This version of Henrick is what I fear the most. The seething with madness version. I want him to speak up, to say it to my face no matter how much the truth hurts me. But I surrendered. I surrendered to Henrick. "I didn't tell you because I'm worried about your feelings, Vin. I don't know if you could bear it or not. I don't know if this will bring back the pain...But you won't listen to me even when I warned you. Now, I will tell you the truth. Moe is the guy who poisoned you at th
Irvin's POV"P-please... don't hurt us..."My eyes widened as I watched the scene in front of me. I gave Moe a glance, but he was too preoccupied with the terrified lady. "Auntie, we're not here to hurt you." I muttered, before lending my hands towards the old lady, beckoning her to get up. "Tri’s not here today. So, I came instead." Moe said. "Y-you're... not here to hurt us?" she said in a trembling voice. "Yes." Moe said with indifferent expression, before eventually softening his voice, "How are you?" "You promise?" "Yes... Tri asked me to buy this too," Moe took the pills out of his pocket and gave them to the auntie. The expression on the woman's face eventually mellowed as she started to trust Moe. "Why didn't Tri come today?" Auntie grabbed her own clothes and wiped tears off her face. "He's busy... Can we see him now?" Moe shortly said. The lady was speechless for a moment before letting out a deep sigh. She slowly opened the door to the room and eventually beckone
Irvin’s POVI sat with my phone while playing games like crazy after passing a rigorous exam all day, damn it! The questions on the test paper today were something I have never met before. Hey! Did we study a lesson like that? Damn, I couldn't remember anything. My brain has gone as empty as a space, it was filled with nothing. The more I searched for answers, the more I couldn't find them. I wanted to sleep instead! Fuck! What I got back was a radiant looking skin because I have slept all too well, it helps a lot with drinking eight glasses of water a day that adds moisture to my skin. How preposterous! "Done with your exams already?" Henrick’s voice didn't draw my attention away from the screen. I nodded at him and continued playing the game. For about ten minutes now, I have been sitting here under the VIP building benches and waiting for him. Henrick and his friends gathered around the table. He then sat beside me. "Ugh." I flicked my face away from Henrick, who gently rubbed h
Henrick’s Pov"Oh God... it hurts so much doctor." I squinted my eyes towards the old looking man sitting across from my good-for-nothing friend. He was called doctor Seb or Doc Sebastian Walsh? Something like that. When we asked Oli if he wanted to be taken to the hospital, he refused and wanted to be tended here instead. So we called a doctor, and this bastard specifically asked for this old man. I was putting an ice pack for Irvin’s hip while periodically peeking at my friend’s actions. He said he was hurt, but his face looked otherwise and it annoyed me seriously. "You're doing fine, Oli. It's just a little bruise. I'll give you some painkillers and topical ointment and you're good to go." The good-looking doctor said coldly. His tone might be soft and caring, but his facial expressions were too stiff and indifferent. "Don't I need an X-ray? Or maybe some blood tests? I think I'm still a little sick doctor." Oliver pushed himself up from the sofa, and drew his face closer to t
Henrick’s POVBang!!I hurriedly grabbed Irvin by the waist so that he slammed hard on my chest. We dropped to the couch in shock, looking at the shards of fallen glass on the floor. The glass table shattered and cracked loudly. I didn't realize I had used such a strong force enough to break the table apart. Luckily, I caught Irvin on time before he fell into the mess. "Are you okay?" I asked Irvin who sat on my lap and was staring breathlessly at the wreckage in front of us. "Damn, Rick! What the hell did you do?" He slapped my thigh hard with his fists. "Ha ha, look how strong my love for you is." I said, grinning goofily at Irvin’s reddened face out of embarrassment. Knock Knock"Young Master. What happened, Young Master Henrick?" There was a loud knock on the door, along with an uproar from outside. Irvin and I exchanged looks and he hurriedly put on his pants, rolled his shirt down, and ran towards the bathroom. I shook my head slightly as I recall his old ways. "Nothing."
Henrick’s POV"Let me go!" He pursed his lips tightly that prevented me from penetrating the insides of his mouth, but I don't care anymore. I sucked on his lower lip vigorously and kissed him repeatedly. His thin and soft lips felt so good against mine. His sweet breath made me delirious with so much need I think it's too late to stop myself anymore. My head spun from the raging lust. I alternately kissed his lips and cheeks nonstop to let him feel what I wanted to say. To let him know that I want him so much and I need him in my life or else I will die. "I thought I was going to die." I said honestly, still in full attention to the man in front of me who has his eyes tightly closed and flickering his head back and forth. His lips remained tightly closed that he began to suffocate and lose his oxygen, so he accidentally opened his mouth to get some air. And it was the moment I was waiting for, I lunged forward and claimed his mouth in full. My tongue darted inside his mouth, twirlin
Henrick’s POV"Damn it, what the fuck?! Are you still in the mood to watch porn in this situation?" Irvin asked in shock. "Shit!" "What?" Irvin and I looked at the screen showing a video clip between Moe and Ivy. They were both naked and making love passionately in bed. If it was Ivy with someone else, I wouldn't be surprised but what made me cursed out loud was because it was Moe, who's the least I expected to do this to me. Though I feel nothing about Ivy, seeing a clip of her like this made me feel a bit struck. I felt betrayed. It was true that who stabbed you from the back was always someone close to you. "Fuck! Moe is wicked." Irvin said as his eyes focused on the screen. "Didn't I tell you? Don't get close to him!" I said angrily, remembering how close Irvin was in danger with Moe. "How would I know? Open that one too." Irvin, who didn't seem to mind, urged me to open another file that Rancho was gradually sending. "Fuck! Stephanie too?" As soon as I opened the clip, I
Irvin’s POVI took a deep breath. Today was exhausting, not just physically but also mentally. Everything was so messed up, but I'm glad that the bond that I have with my brother is getting stronger. Zeke and Oliver took him to the hospital to get treated and I was left alone with Henrick. "Let's go home now, Vin." Henrick said, wrapping his hands over my neck and pulled me into a hug. "Whose house are you talking about? T-the fuck are you doing again Henrick! Let me go!" I struggled, pushing myself away from Henrick’s embrace. "Come on Vin. It's already over. Let's go home now." Henrick insisted, and pulled me towards his car. "Henrick, if you don't stop pulling my arm, I'll hit you!" I continued to resist, glaring at him in fury. "VIn, please. I'm sorry.. I'm really sorry. I was wrong." Henrick held my arm to face him, but I was too stubborn not to let him have his way. "I'm done with you! Go mess with somebody else!" I said as I turned my gaze away from him. Henrick sudde
Boone’s POV“So?” Stephanie leaned close to me and gave me a teasing smile. I looked at her with confusion and just shrugged her off. Her smile turned frowning when I disregarded her query. She bumped me with her shoulder that slightly pushed me over. “Isn’t he the guy that you’ve been talking about?”“Hmn.” My way of saying ‘yes’.“Oh my god. You’re acting shy right now.” She pointed out.My hands were fast to cover her lips. She was too loud. That even the guards at the main gate could hear her blabbering.“That’s nonsense.” I replied. Letting her go. “Can you tone down your voice? I don’t want him to feel uncomfortable.”Her lips puckered. She went silent for a few seconds. As if she’s thinking of something that I couldn’t decipher. SHe crossed her arms, lying back on her seats. Almost slouching. “You know what for someone who’s smart, you’re quite stupid and blind.”My jaw dropped at her utterance. If only she’s not someone I consider as a friend, I probably have said mean things
