Torn Apart By Fate Who really is Tiger?
The image she had drawn of Devlin was absolutely wrong, Sarah realised faintly. She had thought that he was a one man gangster, walking and living all alone, while occasionally fighting others gangsters who tried to mess up with him, but she was wrong. Now, there was Jordan added to the scene. One look at them, and it showed that they shared a very strong bond. The puzzles weren’t fitting at all! On top of that, Devlin was rich! The amount of money he’d handed to Anne could only proved that. With this last piece of revelation, Sarah reached to only one possibility. Devlin was not really a gangster. He had to be the son from a very wealthy family. Children from the upper class household tend to choose this kind of life because average normal life is way too boring for them. But then again, Devlin didn’t fit in this kind either! He didn’t at all correspond to the checklist of spoil brats. She sighed inwardly.In the front seat, Devlin licked his lips and swallowed down the easiness in h

Sarah let out an exclamation of awe as the jeep drove through the city streets. It was a city as busy as New York yet it was not New York. The name of the city was unknown to Sarah. As a matter of fact, they reached there a little after sunset. The orange purplish sky has turned the city into a golden city. The streets were fraught with people, most of them clothed in business suits and classy outfits. Half of the city lights were reflecting in Sarah’s big, stunned eyes. Sarah had never been to a city before, only seen them in postcard and pictures. She was often moved by its night beauty. With an anguish reluctance, her mind went back to the past. She recalled the days, the month, the years when she had sat down by her window, looking at the mountain with a sharp sadness and melancholy in her heart. Her friends, her cousins had all gone to parties, to family reunion yet she had never been allowed to participate in them. Often during these moments, she had envied the princesses in he

Sarah gulped and her pulse skyrocketed. What does he mean? Her eyebrows furrowed.''I found something about your address. Your sister lives in the city next to this one. I...I just have to confirm it then I shall let you know.” With a thud, her heart dropped in her chest and her mouth went dry.''Oh,” the single word exclaimed with disappointment. If Devlin noticed her lack of enthusiasm to go home, he didn't show it. Not surprising to find the toast tasteless after that kind of news, she wrinkled her nose critically, trying to mask her sadness with irritation. Sarah changed the topic. ''Eish! Your cooking skills are so awful. I missed eating the takeaways food my sister used to buy for me here,” she grumbled. Deep inside, two feelings were conflicting with each other; one Sarah missed her mother and her sister deeply and the other one was her love for Devlin, which was getting fiercer day by day.''Sarah, I'm a gangster, not a cook,” he defended himself with a chuckle. Sarah looke

Oh no! She screamed inwardly as Devlin reached by the swimming pool. Her arms unconsciously tightened around his neck. ''Oh! Please don't do this, I don't know...'' Devlin silenced her by locking eyes with her, his face so close to hers that their nose almost touched.''How to swim,” she said breathlessly, captivated once again by the ferocity in his eyes. His gaze stilled on her flushed face and her heart began to thud and pound so loudly that she was afraid he might heard it. And then, without any warning he let go of her. Sarah fell in the pool with a splash! Panic stricken, she gasped and started to struggle her arms and feet against the water. Surfacing her head over the water, she cried out in panic,“Tiger, take-me out! I’m drowning-I'm dying!''''You needed that refreshing. Your face was too red,” came his cool reply as he moved away.''Tiger! Tiger! Help!'' She shouted at the very brink of breaking into tears. However Devlin’s back wast to her. He was adjusting something i

Devlin inwardly sighed a relief. She took a sip of the drink then exclaimed. ''Wow, it is awesome. You do have amazing hands!” He quirked one eyebrow. ''Oh yeah? But I remember someone told me once, my cooking skill is awful.” '' I'm sure that person didn't meant it.” Sarah smiled. But soon, Devlin’s one faded away as he decided to speak his mind. ''Can I ask a question, Sarah?'' Her nervous eyes met his then nodded. He swallowed down the sudden dryness in his throat and tried to calm his suddenly racing heart. He cleared his throat then mustered up his courage. ''The other day- I mean, when I asked you who you wanted to defeat you replied- that it was your...your husband?'' He averted her eyes, “ are you married?''Sarah let out a soft laugh.''Of course I am not!''"Then?”She hesitated. “It is a long story. I am not sure if you will want to hear it.”''I am all yours. I would love to...'' The desperation in Devlin’s voice was too apparent, so he quickly added, ''I mean-

Devlin slowly ran a comforting hand over her arm and rubbed it rhythmically as she stopped crying with only dry sobs from now and then. ''But now, you do not have to worry. You now know how to defend yourself, right?”Sarah lifted her head and looked at him. He gave her a smile and she returned it back. “Hmm,” she nodded, “thank you,” she barely said in a whisper.Devlin’s heart lurched in his stomach. He was momentarily breathless as he continued to hold his gaze. Sarah was lazily gazing at him when out of a sudden, her gaze moved behind him and instantly widened. The star was back in the pit of her eyes! Devlin blinked as the next minute, she jumped on her feet.Getting off his arms, Sarah went straight behind him, a high pitch of excitement in her voice.''Look!'' When Devlin followed her gaze, an amused chuckle rose in his throat. Again he smiled.The full bright moon was rising above the city lights and the scene was an splendid scenery, putting all the lights in the whole c

Devlin! She almost took him for someone else. Gone was the gangster and messy man she knew! In its place was a mind bogglingly handsome man! His business suit impeccably tailored, his shirt snowy white, his tie meticulously knotted and a Rolex watch on his wrist! His brow went up, “well?”Her face burned as Sarah realised that while she was assessing his body he had been watching her do so. ''I- I,” Sarah stammered, embarrassed. Devlin laughed and took a step forward.''Do tell me how I look,” he interrogated mockingly, buttoning the suit nicely.''I- nice, but where are you going dressed like this?" She suddenly frowned.''A meeting”''Meeting? But you said you don't work with other gangsters...”Sarah’s frown deepened. A dark flush swallowed his face and he looked uncomfortable.''I-um,” he swept his hands distractedly through his hair, messing his well combed hair!''Don't do this!'' Sarah cried in a sharp alarm. When Devlin looked at her as if she’d grown two heads, she explaine

Devlin halted at the red light. He was in a very gloomy, dark mood. The kind of mood which would end his punching bag into a victim. The meeting with the shareholders went well. All of them were very happy and rejoiced to have seen him again. They were all eagerly waiting for him to take over again. But it was all a torture for him. Most of the time, all they talked about were his father and past memories. It tormented him! They were also curious about what had he been doing all this time. However Devlin kept it short and undetailed. He was specially grateful for Jordan’s support by his side. He had filled up the blank when Devlin didn't know what to say. Well, Jordan had to because he knew too well that Devlin was going to decapitate him the next time they meet alone. The green light was on and Devlin started his engine once again. He was sightlessly driving, his mind running with thoughts. All these years, everything had gone according to planned, yet now it felt like the strings

Torn Apart By Fate The end
Three years later.The first sign of dawn appeared, the calmness and loneliness around the house near the mountain started to fade away as the few birds started to chirp cheerfully.In an upstairs room, the light was still on, the light which her mum had switched on last night. Silently, the door opened and her mother appeared, a sad smile on her lips. She breathed out a distress then switched off the light to close the door behind her, with a sigh again. She didn't go and disturb her daughter as it was now a usual habit to see her like this every morning, not on her bed but by her table with the diary opened in front of her.For the past three years, no one knew what happened to her during that holiday. She kept on telling them that she couldn't remember, but deep inside, her mother knew that something hurtful had occurred and that each and every night, her daughter's blood turned into ink, writing out the words she couldn't speak aloud.In the room, a broken woman has fallen asleep

searched her face worriedly.''Are you okay?" She frowned.‘You must know that it was never meant for us to meet each other. We just met by pure coincidence. Or maybe our meeting was just a mistake- done by fate.’Devlin's words kept on echoing louder and louder in her mind. It was unbearable. Sarah squirmed away from Maria’s arms and covered her ears with shaky hands. She was in the middle of a nightmare. She covered her ears more tightly, hoping his voice would go away but in vain. It was getting louder and harsher.‘My wish is that you go back to your life and live it as if you never met me! Forget every single day you spent with me. Forget every memory we shared-forget-just forget everything about me.’Sarah screamed fearfully. Tears rolling down her face to dip on her lap. The pain was too deep and too much. She couldn’t bear the burden of it! Why had fate brought me this treasure only to rip it away from me so soon- too soon! She asked in her mind. Why ? Why?! Now her own voic
Torn Apart By Fate Goodbye
Jordan let out a heavy sigh this time. He wanted to help Devlin but a more powerful strength was ruling over the events; that is fate. “Then at least, go and visit, one last time.”Devlin shook his head. He lowered his stormy eyes.''Dev, she's still unconscious. Go and see her one last time. Tell her everything that is on your heart. You won’t meet again anyway. So, better to lighten your feelings now than to miss this opportunity forever.” As Jordan’s words hit him, Devlin met his gaze. Jordan gave him a reassuring smile. Only then, he nodded. His heart skipped a beat then started to gallop. His legs felt suddenly weak and his jaw tightened to an extent that it made a sound. His fingers hardened in a tight fists, his rough fingers were piercing his palm, almost bleeding it. His gaze, his gaze was soft but sorrowful. Devlin gulped before he muttered sadly,''Sarah...”On the small bed in front of him, laid a weak and unconscious lady. The lady who met him by coincidence, the lady
Torn Apart By Fate Is it the end?
“You think you are a genius, huh?! You crept over my skin and pretended to the same as my son, you think I would think twice before killing you! But you are wrong, wrong!” His rage mirroring Devlin’s. They were both breathing sharply, the murderous eyes glued on each other. Cesare sent another punch on his nose and bled it. Devlin’s fury was closed to explosion! He returned the punch back on Cesare’s jaw. The latter didn’t mind the pain as he launched once again on Devlin. He locked his forearm around his neck and squeezed. Devlin clenched his teeth as he started to gasp for air. Cesare dragged him from behind, their limbs struggling against each other. It was like a bull fight!Please, please, make him confess quickly! I don’t have much time! Devlin prayed with his throat tightened and his breath sharpening. Devlin was not weak. In fact, he was better at combat than Cesare was. But he had to control his power! He knew in one blow he could kill Cesare but he could not risk this! Wit
Torn Apart By Fate It's war!
His gaze instantly flickered to hers and they instantly darkened. For a second they stared into each other's eyes, and she heard her own heart beating, fast and loud, echoing in her ears like the sea in a shell. His eyes dark with anguish, hers bright with tears. Devlin is here! Sarah let out a sigh and slumped her shoulders. Within the blink of an eye, the five men raised their firearms towards him and Oscar knelt down, seized her tied wrists and lifted Sarah on her feet again. ''Now that there's no escape from here, why don't you remove this mask?'' Cesar asked as he approached Devlin with an air of arrogance and menace! Devlin lifted his hand without any hesitation, started to take off the scarf. Sarah’s heart stopped! What was he doing?! She shook her head. No! She shouted mentally. When Devlin removed it completely, Cesar stared at him in shock and after some tensed seconds he laughed out, an amused sound. A smile met his eyes.''Wow, my Lucky! You really took me off guard
Torn Apart By Fate Her Saviour
Why was life always so complicated? So fraught with problems? Like walking on eggshells, you could hear them breaking at every step you took. If only it was easier to see ahead and know the consequences of what choices we made! Devlin moaned inward. Emotion and tension flooded through him as he thought of Sarah. Not sending her away, he admitted, was indeed his greed. He knew it was his greed but he had kept not wanting to hear the reasons why he should send her back. He kept making excuses of how it was okay not to send her. So, something bad really happened!As he broke all speed records, Devlin’s scared heartbeats were whispering only one word, Sarah. Please, don’t let anything happen to her, please. For the first time in his life, Devlin prayed vehemently. Sarah’s head ached. She could feel an unfamiliar bump on her forehead.Slowly she drifted out of her unconsciousness but opened her eyes abruptly when she remembered what had happened!At eight o'clock, she had left Devlin's h

''You're wrong! You're so wrong!” She cried impatiently, certain that she must be in the midst of a living nightmare.Devlin sighed and put an arm around her trembling shoulders.‘'Sarah, you know what kind of life I lived and what kind of man I am. You witness how dangerous- You must go back and resume your life in your world. I promise you, you will find someone to love...” Sarah shook his hand off her shoulder at once.''I-I can't go back to that life, not that I've found you, Devlin.” She cracked and finally sobbed, unable to prevent the hot, frustrated and frightened tears from trickling down her face. ''You don't, you don't understand...”''Of course, I do!''The cold, harsh tone of his voice hit her like a blow as Devlin roughly shook her shoulders. He swore under his breath.'' Can't you see that the time we spent together wasn't real?! It was, ” he swept his hands distractedly through his hair, ''it was an idyll- time out of mind. Surely you can see that it has little to do
Torn Apart By Fate Confession
“To-tomorrow? You knew my address?" Sarah could not fight it. The feeling of betrayal was back. She was only trying to comfort him! ''Yes, a very long-time ago.”''But why?”Devlin threw her a blank stare, silencing her on the spot. He means what he said! Sarah read it in his eyes. There was no way to change his mind. And...and how could she go away without confessing her love? Her heart in her hands, Sarah ran towards him to once again grab his arm.''Devlin! Don't do this- don't...” She begged breathlessly, her breathing sharpened. Snatching his arm again from her grip, Devlin continued to move away. However the following words escaped from her lipsand unwillingly, Sarah broke her own promise.''But Devlin! I love you!'' The walking man froze. And so did Sarah. She gulped. A thunder stricken Devlin turned to face her. His face was pale, his eyes widened in its saucers. A tensed silence fell. Devlin’s thoughts started to run, breaking speed record. And one by one, all the proo
Torn Apart By Fate Despair
Devlin instantly recognised this name. He was a very famous and merciless gangster of the time. He was a drug dealer, he often attacked, threatened big companies to be allowed to use the company name to import drugs in the country. Without any doubt it must have been the same case for his parents, Devlin concluded darkly. Even though he had committed several murders, still until this day nobody had been able to stop him as he never left proofs and evidence. From this day on Devlin’s life took a sharp turn. The smile in his eyes was replaced by a glitter of anger. From the eyes of the society he had suddenly disappeared. Everybody thought that he had gone abroad for further studies but only Jordan knew what he was up to. Jordan had urged him to do the otherwise but the Devlin he knew was lost forever. In front of him was a man with no heart, a man with only one purpose that is vengeance. Thus, Devlin had left his company in Jordan’s care and he had moved away for his vengeance. After
