His statement made me stiffen.
Fuck my life!
Don't panic! Don't panic!! Don't fucking panic!!!
I repeated, internally to calm me down, but my heart felt like it was about to burst into flames.
I was having a palpitation, and perspiration started forming on my face and trickled down my forehead. My skin was broke out with goosebumps and a cold chill ran down to the length of my spine.
I could feel Jedrick's intense gaze lingering on me. I didn't dare to look at his face, after few seconds passed by he cleared his throat.
"Mr. Sandros, I will take you to the restroom, I am heading there." He told me and ignored Zephyr's statement. I released a sigh of relief.
Thank god!
I nodded my head at him and then, I realized, why was he coming with me. He was talking about the men's restroom. When I told him that I wanted to use the restroom, I meant the lady's room.
I couldn't visit the lady's room with this outfit on. I wo
Rehor Jedrick's Pov~ "He looked suspicious and I almost thought he was a girl disguised as a guy," Zephyr's assumption rang in my head repeatedly like a sledgehammer. I still remembered the way Sandros reacted when he heard Zephyr's statement. He became white as a sheet as if, he had seen some ghost. He looked anxious as if, he was caught red-handed. Was it possible that Mr. Sandros was in fact a Ms. Sandros? Earlier, when we went to the restroom, he looked edgy as if, he was entering the men's room for the first time. His face flushed with embarrassment. He didn't even raise his head. His gaze was locked with the floor. Thinking about the possibilities of Sandros being a girl, he had soft features and he looked so young for his age. His skin was so soft and smooth. His eyes were his most prominent feature. It held innocence and determination in it. I could say that he was a good person just by a single glance. I knew
The closer we get to our destination, our surroundings became greener and fresher. The air became pure. The sky was blinded by towering trees like Douglas firs, mountain hemlock, and Alaskan yellow cedar, and so on. There were many trees and it was a sight to be held from your boring and busy city life. There was no pollution, everything looked clean and fresh. It looked like we had entered some forest range. I was wondering, what kind of surprise was waiting for me. "Out, with your surprise, already!" I demanded him and waited in anticipation for his response. I couldn't hold in my excitement anymore which made him chuckle. "We are almost there. You can see it for yourself." He tilted his head in my direction and gave me a lopsided grin. After a few minutes passed by, we entered the Mt. Rainier national park. I had heard about this place but I never visited it due to my busy working schedule. This place was not too far away from Seatt
"How about I show you something cool, as a peace offering?" He rushed out and tried to bribe me. He approached me slowly with cautiousness as if, he was going to be eaten by a monster if he made a wrong move. At this point, my inner self was rolling with laughter on the ground. He looked like an innocent child. Serves him right for teasing me, I crossed my arms and gave him a cool look as if, his peace offering was not enticing me. But deep down, I was curious about his peace offering. "You know, only the other person has to decide whether it is cool or not," I told him with a raised eyebrow. "Let us see if you still think the same after experiencing it by yourself." He told me confidently. He looked at me like he was provoked to prove his worth to me. Wait! What did he mean by 'Experience it yourself ' Before, I could process his words he started to undo the buttons of his shirt in a seducing way. His actions were agoniz
He started to suck my lower lip and bit it softly, which made me moan in pleasure. My hands traveled to the nape of his neck and tucked at his silky strands. Our lips moved with sync and our kiss became heated, at this point he was ravishing my mouth. I rubbed my heat against his torso to create friction. His other hand squeezed my ass and I could feel myself getting wet by the passing time. At this moment, my sense was heightened to a great extent and all I could focus on was 'him'. I felt like he was trying to eat my mouth from the way he was ravishing it. I licked his lower lip and traced the curve of his lower back with my nails, which made him groan in pleasure. We both were still flying and everything became heated and urgent. He slammed my back against a tree and plunged his tongue into my mouth which made me squirm on him like a snake. He sucked my tongue and I traced his defined 'V' line, which made him grunt as if he was being tortured.
"Mr. Sandros," That, oh so familiar voice brought chills to my very core. It was Jedrick. My eyes bulged out of its sockets at the sight of him in fear. My mouth turned dry and my stomach dropped to its pit. My heart was quivering at the sight of him. I was absolutely and utterly, petrified to my core. My palms started to sweat and I could feel them turning cold as ice. The problem was, I was not a Mr. Sandros, right now. Currently, I was dressed as a Ms. Sandros. His presence here explains, why, a group of hulks was standing near my apartment building. They looked as if they were going to destroy my building just with their mere hands if their boss gave them a single nod. They looked like monsters from hell and I was not even exaggerating. While I was driving here, I saw some SUVs parked near the street closer to my apartment. I should have known better to be prepared for any
His smoldering gaze was too much for me to handle, so I looked down at the coffee I was making for him. After few minutes of silence, he pulled away from me and leaned on the kitchen counter beside me, his face was facing me. I released the breath that I was holding in with relief. His presence was too intimidating today. Because you almost got caught, my inner voice told me and it was absolutely true. "So… tell me, Adeline, Don't you think it is hard to stay with your brother and that too in a crumpled apartment like this? Where do you sleep? It seems like there is only one bed here." He asked me casually, tucking his hands in his pockets. His eyes never strayed away from my face, as if he was mesmerized by me. And it looked like he didn't want to miss out on my expressions. "If you don't mind, when will you leave?" I asked him with a frown. He raised his eyebrows at me with a smirk. "Why? Already affected by my presence." He asked me with a twitch o
He lost his interest in me, now, and he was looking at the view in front of us. He looked so relaxed. He bent down and rested his elbows at my balustrade. The first two buttons of his shirt were undone and the wind blew away his hair, making it messier. He looked like a portrait. He looked strong and beautiful. "It was good," I murmured and bared my teeth at him with annoyance. "Mr. Sandros." "Yes, sir." "Stop acting like an angry kitten," he told me without turning around me. My eyes widened like a doe that caught in front of the headlight. How did he know? His eyes were closed and there were no mirrors in front of him. He was not even looking at me. "I didn't do anything," I whined at him. He turned towards me and scrutinized his gaze upon me. I stood still like an obedient employee with a bright smile on my fa
"Don't be late tomorrow. I'll pick you up on my way to the airport." He stated with a stoic look, I nodded my head at him like an obedient employee. He shook his head at me with disappointment and crossed his veiny arms in front of his chest and glared down at my innocent face. I looked at him with my big round eyes as if asking him 'what did I do?' "Words, Mr. Sandros." He grumbled. The realization dawned upon me and I made an 'O' with my mouth. "Yes, Sir." I gave him a mock salute. He scrutinized his gaze on me as if I was a bug who was annoying him. He walked to my front door and rested his hands on the doorknob. Suddenly, he turned to me and scanned my entire frame, up and down. "For a twin, you look exactly like your sister, Mr. Sandros." With that he exited my apartment, leaving me shell shocked. I was lying on my bed upside down with the upper half of my body hanging from my bed. His words were ringing in my head repeate
The door closed behind him on its own as soon as he entered the bedroom. He placed me gently on the bed and gave me a heated look, which made me shiver with anticipation. He started to undo his dress shirt while maintaining eye contact with me. I gulped at the sinful sight in front of me, slowly his marble-like skin started to peek out of the undone buttons."H-Hades…" I whispered his name with a stutter. I had no idea whether I was protesting against his actions or calling him to devour me. I tried to sit straighter from my lying position but he discarded his shirt as swift as the wind and in a blink of an eye he was hovering above me.His hard chest was pressed against my soft feminine one. He intertwined his hands with mine and forced them flat against the bed. I was caged under him and he was burning hot as if he had a fever.All of a sudden, my mouth felt dry as a Sahara, so I licked my lips to moisturize them. The action drew his attention from my e
"Then, do you love me?" he asked me without batting an eyelash. My heart skipped a beat at his question. I liked him as a person but deep down I knew that I don't love him. I didn't say anything for a while, I just looked down at my feet with my slumped shoulders. I heard him heave a sigh, "It is okay Adeline, I can understand. You don't have to reciprocate my feelings." His voice sounded poignant. I lifted my head and took a glimpse at his face with a culpable expression. "Hey! Don't look so down, Now, I can date other girls of this realm. That red one looks hot, don't you think?" He cheered me up and winked at a tall blonde with a figure-hugging red dress who walked by us. She gave him a lingering look as she passed by us. I hit his arm playfully which made him chuckle at my red face. "Come on, let's get going. We don't want to anger your man, now, do we?" he teased me. I blushed at his words as he wrapped his arm around my shoulders and we
The chair screeched as Jedrick stood up to his feet with a feral look on his face."Boyfriend?" he clenched out the word with malice. Arsenio remained unaffected by his outrage; instead, he just smirked in his direction and tucked his hands into his pockets."Yup but we both haven't discussed it yet after our first kis…oomph! Hey!" I stomped on his feet and shut his mouth by interrupting his sentence with a death glare."Ahaha…he is just bluffing, just don't mind him, Jedrick," I told him as I laughed it off awkwardly. Before Jedrick could lash out at us, the waitress arrived with our meal. Jedrick composed himself with an intake of a deep breath. As I was about to sit beside Arsenio, Jedrick grabbed my arm and pulled the chair beside his for me to sit.I gave him a baffled look but he only glared at me as if I was a brat. I instantly looked away from his intimidating eyes and took a seat near the window sill and Jedrick placed himself besid
After our little chat, Cerberus transformed into his real form. Oh boy! I thought that he was so big and intimidating when I first met him, but he was thousand times much bigger and scarier now. He had the body of a single dog but he had three heads. He looked exactly the same way how he was described in mythologies. His eyes were yellow and snake-like. His fur was dark as the midnight sky; it was such a contrast to his eyes. His teeth were literally the size of me, it was sharp and dripping with saliva. He gave me an adorable frown as if he didn't want to part away from me. I smiled at this big baby, and he bent his head to my height. I petted his snout. "Let's go, Adeline," Jedrick told me from my behind. I could feel his heat radiates off him. he was always very warm. I could feel him even without touching or seeing him. I always had this feeling of being protected whenever I was with Jedrick even when I thought he was a mafia boss. Cerberus whined
“Jedrick?” I called him softly. His face was only a few inches away from mine and my arms were wrapped around his neck. I could hear the crunching of leaves beneath his boots as he walked with me in his arms. He raised his eyebrows at me. “What? You are not my boss anymore,” I shrugged with an innocent look. I could see his lips slightly twitch at the corners, and he shook his head at me with a serene look. “Can I ask you a question?” I asked him. “Do I even have a choice?” I thought about his question for a second and grinned at him toothily. “Definitely not,” I replied him enthusiastically. His eyes were shining with laughter. “What is your age?” My question made him pause in his tracks. He looked down at me with an unreadable expression. I looked up at him with my big gooey eyes.
He looked at me with a funny look as if he was laughing internally at my horrifying expression. Wait a minute? Was he lying to me? His face didn’t give away anything but there was a possibility of that. I scrutinized my eyes on his face and saw him biting his lip. “You are lying, aren’t you?” I asked him with my evil eyes. As soon as I asked this, he burst out laughing, and it was the most beautiful sound that I had ever heard. “Nope, I am telling you the truth. You should have heard of what you were saying last night. You were moaning my name, and you completely took advantage of this poor soul.” He told me with an innocent look. I could say that he was lying from the way he was looking at me. I frowned at him and smacked his head with a pillow. “You are lying!” I yelled at him and kept on smacking him. He burst out laughing and he didn’t look like he was bothered by my pillow fight. “You should have seen your face. You looked mortified as if
His eyes looked unyielding. It took me a second to process what he was saying. When I realized what he was implying, my eyes widened like a saucer. I shook my head at him in disbelieve and I was speechless. This was absurd. "You are impossible. I am resigning my job and I am leaving this place tomorrow on the first flight to Seattle." I told him angrily. "And you mister! Open this damn door this instant!" I ordered him and gave him the stink eyes. He looked at me with laughter in his eyes which made me to scrutinize my gaze on the twitching of his lips as if he was trying hard to hold in his laughter. He took long strides and stood in front of me. I stood my ground with a firm face. He bent down to my height by placing his palms on his knees. I leaned my head back at his proximity. He observed my face with his dark eyes. There was a lopsided grin on his face which made him look all smug but at the same time, it made him look like a Greek god, oh look
Adeline’s pov~ I had no idea what was going on in my life anymore. I couldn’t believe that I was standing in front of the Greek god and that too, one of my favorite characters from Greek mythology. The moment I saw Arsenio with his wings was the moment I started to believe in mythology. But even then I didn’t believe in the concept of god. I was not the most spiritual person on this planet. The moment my parents died, I lost my faith in a higher power and that was the moment I turned into an atheist. I became so angry with higher powers when I felt lonely and abandoned and my grandmother’s death was a cherry on the top. Though I understood that she died of old age, I felt like everyone abandoned me. My whole view on spirituality and the concept of god had changed today. I was awe-stricken when he opened the door with the snap of his fingers. All these times I thought that Jedrick was a mafia boss but in reality, he was only punishi
“Hades! Don’t hurt her! Open the door, you have to see this!” Helena’s voice came behind the door. Adeline adjusted her clothes at the sound of Helena. She looked disheveled as if she had rough sex with me and the thought alone made me to swallow. I was having this sinful image of her in my mind and only my father could help me. I focused on Helena’s words and frowned in her direction. I snapped my fingers together. The door opened and there stood my grim reapers aka devils. Helena sauntered inside my room, followed by Grudgecous, Skull, and Victor. Adeline looked startled by their sudden intrusion and by my ability to use magic. Since she knew that I was a god there was nothing to hide from her. She moved a little closer to me, beside my bed, as soon as she saw them approaching us. Helena was holding a document in her hand and she looked tensed and worried, even Victor looked tensed. He was the most playful grim reaper among them but he the most dangerous wh
