29. I Was Caught Off Guard

2024-10-29 19:42:56He 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 Girl We Desire 31. You Lied To Me!
Adeline's Pov~ I informed Arsenio that I was boarding to Italy, the previous night. He was already a little guilty that he left me in the middle of the day. So he thought of spending some time later with me, but after I told him about my trip, he was a little disappointed. And we hadn't talked about our kiss, yet. So right now, we were not in a romantic relationship, yet. He already had a spare key to my apartment, so it was not going to be a problem for him to stay at my place anytime he wishes. It was twenty-five past eight in the morning and I was waiting in the lobby of my apartment building. I was extremely anxious and my leg was continuously bouncing, I couldn't gain control over my legs. I had bought some men's clothes yesterday evening because I have only suits. I had this very bad feeling about this entire trip and for some unknown reasons, I felt like crying. Had you ever re-experienced that feeling of your p
The Girl We Desire 32. Castle Transylvania
I hope everything ends well for me. Our car entered into a forest premise, there was not even a single building or a home here. Both sides of the road were covered by dense forest or sometimes it was covered by meadows and hills. Our car stopped in front of a sky-high gate connected with concrete walls. The gate looked rustic. It looked like we were entering into some old castle. The gate was opened by some guards. Unlike his mansion back in Seattle which was instilled with technology, this place was ancient. And I was not wrong about the castle part. It looked like it was built in the 1300s and this place could be taken as a perfect example of Romanian architecture. It was built with concrete stones and it had a gothic touch to it. The garden looked mystic and dark. There were no flowers, just some ancient-looking trees. I felt like I was entering into some, Dracula's castle. A maid opened the door and we three entered his castle, while the rest of t
The Girl We Desire 33. The Castle's Bedroom
She had a thick accent but I was grateful that she speaks English. The entire time she didn’t raise her eyes to his face. It looked like she had great respect for him and I had no idea why she was calling him master. I mean, it was the twenty-first century for god’s sake. “What?! This castle has forty-eight bedrooms. How is every room occupied?” my boss asked her with surprise. “Due to the new issue that has risen, many of your admirers are staying here to support you,” she informed him. I zoned out of their conversation and observed the interior of his castle for the first time. There were many sculpted wood and they were minutely carved. There were many men, women, children, and angels were carved on this wood. I had no idea what type of wood it was but it looked dark red. The majority of the interior was designed with wood and there were numerous paintings here. I had no idea what type of paintings these were but it
The Girl We Desire 34. The Heart Of The Hell
Suddenly, she released her grip on my hand. I looked up at her face and saw her smirking at me but what shocked me to my core was, I saw realization on her face. My heart was beating so fast and everyone in the room looked at me as if they could hear my heartbeat. "Are you guys okay?" Jedrick broke the ice between us with a frown. "Yeah, we are absolutely okay," Helena responded to him with a sly smirk. I was anxious and jumpy throughout our dinner. I kept on messing with my food without touching it. Jedrick sat on the head chair while I occupied his right side and Helana on his left side. Cerberus sat near my foot and ate his food, happily without a care in this world. "Mr. Sandros, what's wrong? You haven't touched your food." Jedrick whispered only for me to hear but I knew Helena heard him too. "I-I am not hungry," I told him and looked at Helena. She was looking at me and her cat-like eyes were observing my every move. I diverted my widen

Her skin was soft and I could smell her vanilla and strawberry body wash. She was standing so closer to me, making me forgot what I wanted to do. "I-I am fine, it is late, let's go to our room." I grabbed her by her arm and pulled her with me. "But it is not that late, I wanted to spend some time with Cery." She pouted. I internally groaned and clenched my jaw. Her lips look so plump and pink, it looked…kissable? And she already gave my hellhound a nickname. I glared at Cerberus and his eyes wandered like a culprit, and he had the audacity to ignore me and rub himself on her legs to gain her attention. "He should sleep too, now don't make me mad, Mr…I mean who is the boss here? You seem to forget it quite often. Should I remind you?" I scowled at her. I couldn't bring myself to call her a mister when I knew that she was a girl. "I am sorry for angering you, sir." She frowned at me but she looked a little hesitant to come with me. Was she

"A-Adeline? W-What are you talking about? I am her brother, Reynolds." She stuttered with agitation and fumbled with the end of her shirt. She took a step back for, every step I took forward. "Really? I don't think so," I replied coolly, my steps never faltered. She realized that her little secret was exposed to me. She made a maddening dash to the door and jiggled with the knob. The door was old and the lock was present at the top and the middle. The top of the door was too high for her to reach. I locked the door before approaching her at my balcony. I stopped on my spot and folded my arms in front of my chest and gave her an amused glance. She looked like a caged little mouse who was trying to break free. She looked adorable. When she realized that the door was locked and its lock was located at the top, she swiftly turned in my direction with wide eyes. "Oh, what happened? Couldn't open the door? How about let us check your gender? Huh?" I asked h
The Girl We Desire 37. New Problem
“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

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
The Girl We Desire 42. The Hell's Gate II
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
The Girl We Desire 38. Jealous Hades
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
