Chapter 13

Adelie POV

After spending some time with Cynthia, I finally decide to go home.

The drive back home was tiring and exhausting, and luckily, Asher was not around by the time I got home. Maybe he still hasn't returned from work yet. Besides, dad left a lot of things for him to take care of before he traveled.

Releasing a deep sigh, I throw myself on the couch and ruffle my hair slowly. I'm stressed.

Recalling that Raymond asked us to stroll tonight, I stand up to my feet and drag myself up to my room upstairs, and as soon as I walk in, I strip out of my clothes, and dash into the bathroom.

My phone suddenly starts ringing, and I pick it up from the bed as soon as I step into my room. It's Raymond on the phone.

"Hey, momma. I'm waiting for you outside," His voice sounds from the other end as soon as I answer the call, and I glance at the wall clock to see that it's past 8pm.

"I'll be there shortly," I reply to him before the call ends. Now, thin

    Chapter 14 Adelie POV I toss on the bed for the umpteenth time and finally lay on my back as I stare up at the ceiling. It has been three hours since I got home, and it's midnight already, but I still can't bring myself to get some sleep. I sigh briefly, sitting up on the bed and reaching out for my phone that's just lying on the bedside table. Raymond has called me nonstop, but I couldn't bring myself to answer his call after what I did to him back at the restaurant. At this point, I'm beginning to think that I can't handle it having a boyfriend. If I can't do this, maybe I should just break up with him and not give him high hope. My phone suddenly beeps, and as I unlock it, a message pops on the screen. 'Can you please answer my call, momma? I'm worried about you and can't even sleep' reading the message from Raymond, I sigh deeply and turn the screen off, tossing it on the bed afterward. Maybe making him think that I'm already asleep won't be a problem. I drag myse

    Chapter 15 Adelie POV Waking up very early in the morning to find myself alone in the room gives me so much freedom and the chance to do my things how I do them on normal days. It's 5am, and I still have much time to get ready for work. Sitting up on the bed, I run my fingers through my hair tiredly, like I should just go back to sleep. I couldn't sleep well last night since I was a bit uncomfortable with Asher in the same room as me. I was scared he might harm me in my sleep, or maybe force himself on me. I know it's unfair to think that of him, but for someone who does all those dirty things with me as his sister, I doubt if there's anything else he's not capable of, or if he's not capable of doing worse. My phone starts ringing, and even if I haven't checked yet who the person is, I know that it's Raymond.. I'm really putting that dude through a lot, and I feel guilty for the things I'm doing to him. I answer his call this time because it'll be so unfair to ignore h

    Chapter 16 Cynthia POVIt's finally the day I have been waiting all my life for, but I'm a bit nervous. I have made up my mind to confess my feelings to Asher today being his birthday, but I'm also nervous. What if he rejects me? What if he feels like I'm not beautiful enough for him? It's my first time doing something like this, and I just pray he doesn't make me regret it. "Are you sure about this, Cynthia?" My subconscious mind asks me as I stare at the wrapped gift in my hand, and I also ask myself the same question. Am I really sure about this? What if it doesn't go as planned? What if things don't turn out well in my favor? "I can do this... I will do this," I say to myself before I finally stride out of my room. Adelie already gave me the address of their house, and I'm just going to meet them at home. Since it's Saturday, I'm sure that they will all be at home. My name is Cynthia, twenty-six years old single young lady that has been broken by men several times,

Your guest," His mom replies to him instead, and he turns his head to look at me with a blank expression on his face. As his pair of hazel eyes pierce into mine, I feel my heart melt in my chest, and I gulp down nothing nervously. "Who are you?" His deep voice sounds sexy to me, and I blush hard. I quickly stand up to my feet. "Uhm... Good day, Asher... My name is Cynthia... Adelie's colleague," I reply to him, and he pulls a face that says 'so?'. "So?" He finally says it to my face, and I gulp down nothing nervously. "Uhm..." I pause and grab the wrapped gift from my handbag that's on the couch, handing it to him. "Happy birthday, Asher... Please accept my little gift," I smile at him nervously, but he only stares back at me with the same expression on his face. He doesn't look ang

    Chapter 18 Adelie POV It's a beautiful morning, and I'm glad that I'll be having breakfast with my parents today. Just how much I've missed them so much. These past few days without them have been unarguably boring. Descending the staircase minutes later, the aroma coming from the kitchen welcomes me and realizing that I'll be eating from the food made by that scumbag I call a brother, I can't help but roll my eyes angrily. I'm still so mad at him for treating Cynthia the way he did yesterday. For goodness sake, she did nothing wrong. All she did was confess her feelings to the bastard she claimed to be madly in love with. As much as I'm sad about what happened, I'm also happy that she realized the kind of person my brother is. Maybe she will learn to kill those dirty feelings and move on with her life. I'm sure someone will love and accept her the way she is. For fuck's sake, Cynthia is not ugly. "Urgh!" I grunt angrily as I finally get to the dining room, where my pa

    Chapter 19 Adelie POV An awkward silence assumes the air as we all have breakfast. I glance over at Asher occasionally, and he's not even looking my way. Earlier in the kitchen after I told him to date Cynthia, he looked so angry that he ended up storming out of the kitchen, and I have been left questioning myself why he reacted that way. I mean, even if he doesn't like her, there should be no reason he should've acted that way, right? "Son... What do you think about Cynthia? The young lady seems to really like you," Dad breaks the awkward silence, and I glance at Asher to see that he already paused eating, and now holding firmly to his fork like he would stab someone if this discussion doesn't end soon. I'm scared right now, and I can't deny it. "Your dad is right, Asher... I mean, I have never seen any lady come here to look for you, and I have also never really seen you with any before. She seems to be really courageous to have come here to find you," Mom chips

    Chapter 20 Cynthia POVIt has been four days since I got the worst rejection of my life, and I haven't been the same all this while. I took a few days off work just so can calm my head, and now that I feel much better, I'm finally resuming work today. Glancing at my reflection one more time in the mirror, I finally pick up my bag from the bed and stride out of my room. Stepping out of the building, I stop at the roadside to haul down a cab that'll take me to the office. Standing at the roadside for ten minutes without any hope of getting a cab, I sigh frustratingly. I think I'm going to have to trek because I can't afford to be late for the office after spending a few days at home. Striding down the road a few minutes later, a black jeep pull over beside me, bringing me to a halt. I stare at the tinted window glass, wondering who the hell is in the car. It better not be one of those men that can't afford to walk past any girl they see on the road, because I'm in no

They may start dating anytime soon because I will make sure of that. Staring out through the window of my office, I sigh briefly and check my wristwatch for the sixth time, wondering why Cynthia is not yet in the office at this time. We always come here at the same time, but Asher went to see her today, so I was expecting her to get to the office real quick since he will be dropping her off. Well, don't bother racking your brain how I knew about that, because I planned everything. After the incident that day, Cynthia has refused to answer my calls, and although I have been there a couple of times to see her, she never wanted to see me as she kept avoiding me. She even went as far as taking a few days off from work. I know I shouldn't have persuaded Asher, knowing that whatever he said to her didn't come from his mind, but I can't allo

Adelie felt her heart stop beating for a while as those whispers tore through her ear, and when he finally pulled away from her, she staggered back, her face looked pale and shocked like someone that'd just seen a ghost. Maybe it would've felt better if she had seen a ghost, who knows?Just like every other person, Ray watched in shock, still on his knees as he searched for an explanation on her face. It felt like his heart was just stomped on, his chest contracted and his breath hitched. His face was laced with confusion, and like a lost puppy, he stared like that."A... Asher..." Adelie's voice came out in a whisper, and when she looked around the villa, it felt like she should disappear and never come back again. Seeing the expression on their faces, the disgust and confusion were enough to s

    Chapter 58The atmosphere was tense for Adelie even though it was fine for every other person at the party. Looking around and making eye contact with Asher every damn time she looked was frustrating. She wanted the ground to open and swallow her at this point. Her heart skipped when she saw him stand up from the chair he has been seated on, and walking in her direction. She wanted to walk away fast so he won't be able to catch up with her, but she couldn't move herself from the spot. It felt like something was holding her down."Baby, are you ok?" Ray's warm hand wrapped around her waist as he came to stand beside her, and she watched Asher halt abruptly, his eyes darkened like someone that'd just seen something that got him angry. What's wrong with him? She asked herself, but quickly dismissed the thought, reminding herself that she had no business with him."Babe..." Ray called again, and she finally turned her gaze to look at him."You've been acting weird. Is everything alright?

Many negative thoughts kept coming to her mind no matter how she tried to shove it off and pretend everything was fine."Uhm... Are you coming to the party?" She couldn't help but ask Asher before she left home earlier, and she prayed that just as he has said earlier that he wasn't sure, he shouldn't come over to the party."We are here, ma'am," her driver's voice pulled her out of her train of thought, and that was when she realized that they were already parked at the parking lot of the villa where the party was going to host. "Thank you," she said to the driver who was already holding the door open for her. She was cladded in a long red gown that had the back sweeping the ground. Her hair was parked in a ponytail with some strands on each side of her face, and her make-up was mild. She took a few seconds to check out the parking lot which already had

    Chapter 56Raymond POV"Are you sure about this, Ray?" Rhea asked me as I drive us to the jewel store late in the morning, and I roll my eyes at her."Yes, I'm sure about it," I replied to her, and she sighed briefly."I'm thinking this is too fast, Ray. I mean, you barely know each other, so I don't think it's a good idea to propose to her now. I mean, what if she's not ready for this? Don't you think you should talk to her first secretly before you take it to the party?" She asked worriedly, and I rolled my eyes."Come on, Rhea. You worry too much. If I tell her about it, she won't be surprised. That is why I said it's a surprise. She loves me, and trust me, she will be excited to say yes to marrying me," I assured her, and she sighed briefly."Still, I don't think this is a good idea. I don't have a good feeling about this, Ray," She shook her head, insisting. Well, I wouldn't have brought her here with me to the jewelry store if not that I needed her help in choosing an engagement

As much as I wanted to talk to someone about my troubles, I couldn't bring myself to do it, scared of everything. What if he ended up killing my family? What if I said something and nobody even believes me? He can kill and clear the evidence just like he did the other day, right? What if he... Many questions ran through my mind, and in the end, my fear always had the upper hand in everything. I think I'm going to lose my mind eventually with all this thinking."Are you ok?" I almost jumped out of my body when I heard his voice, and I turned sharply to find him walking into the garden with his hands tucked inside his pockets. He had a deep frown on his face as usual, and just the sight of him was making my heart thump. "Are you still scared of me?" He asked with a smirk dancing on his lips once he was standing in front of me, and I swallowed nothing as I took a s

    Chapter 54"It was because of you he broke up with me, Nathan. Why did you say that to him? Why did you have to insult him?" Cynthia yelled at the top of her voice as she grabbed the flower vase and threw it on the floor as it came crashing into pieces."Are you kidding me? I made him break up with you? What does that supposed to mean?" Nathan couldn't help but narrow his eyes at his cousin's foolishness. "Yes. It was all your fault. I fucking told you to stay out of it. I told you that I will handle it by myself, but you decided to ruin everything for me. You are so annoying!" She yelled again. Of course, she knew the truth that Asher never loved her, she knew this was not Nathan's fault, but she couldn't help it. She needed someone to vent her anger on, and Nathan was the only one available at the moment. She knew she was going to regret hurting her cousin's emotions later, but she couldn't even stop to think about that right now."Are you so blind that you didn't see it in his eye

    Chapter 53"What did he say when you told him that?" Jessica, Alvira's best friend who was also a vampire, asked as she sipped from the glass of red wine she was holding, or was it blood? Maybe it was the latter. Jessica had outlived many vampires, except Erubas who was still older than her. "He said nothing. He was shocked, and that even got me thinking about negative things. I mean, he said he loves me, right? Why didn't he say anything when I asked him to mate me?" Alvira sighed briefly as she threw herself on the couch, releasing a deep breath. She was scared of losing the man she has spent all her life loving like he was the only man on earth, she was scared of losing him to a mere human. She used to know him so well, but now she was not sure anymore of who he is. She could read him with just a glance before, but that has changed now that she felt drifted away from him."Maybe he wants to figure out some things first. Maybe he needs some time, who knows?

Turning to face him, I ask to be sure he wasn't referring to me."What are you going to do about it, huh? All you ever did was hurt her. Are you kidding me? Who does that?" He snaps at me like he would hit me anytime soon, but I bet that is one thing he would never want to do because he won't even spend another second here on earth if he dares to lay his hands on me. I mean, does he want to write his death wish?"Stop, Nathan. Just stop!" She turns to him and tries to stop him. Isn't it time I just end this shit once and for all? I mean, I have been doing this all along because she was desperately crazy over me, and not that I ever wanted this relationship."Love? Do I ever love her? No, I never did," I reply to him sarcastically, and I watch as he balls his fists, and wait a minute! Who does he want to use that on? Me?

She has been calling me nonstop for days now after the day I left there, but I have been ignoring her calls. I haven't been feeling well lately. I know I should never allow myself feel anything for Adelie, but I think that law has been broken, considering how jealous I feel whenever I see her with Raymond.I watch as the call rings and finally ends after a few seconds. A message pops on the screen after, and I open it. 'Let's talk tonight'. I sigh briefly and slid the phone into my pocket after I read the message."Have I fallen in love with her?"
