* warning: a few smut scenes ahead!*"He has to give up somehow," Quinn suddenly blurted out, making me look at her in confusion from the lecture notes Hilary had given me these past few days. Whilst my sister and Arisa had already been released last week, I was still at the hospital, asking my doctor's question every day about her love life which seemed to be dull at the moment because of her deadly schedules."What'd yah mean?" I asked, putting back my attention to the notes.My sister slammed her hand on the bed table. "Prom night is coming next week. And you have to get out of this place.""And?"She rolled her eyes from my uninterested response. "I think Jet has given up already. I mean, everybody is looking for his flat ass and he doesn't have his whiny Daddy to back him up anymore. His whole brigade is already down to nothing so it's safer now for you to go to prom night with me. But I think your Mom is extending your stay in here because the whole place is already secured."I

I'd been staring at my reflection for a long while now. And I didn't like how I looked because it felt like there was something wrong. The satin gown was specifically tailored for my sake. Although she wasn't sure that I'm going to attend the prom due to many reasons, Quinn had it customized beforehand while I was still in the hospital. However, in the end, she had me convinced by guilt-tripping me.She even kept on telling my Mom that everything was going to be alright. That we were going to be safe because she made sure that our security would be doubled.Tonight was going to be a blast for sure. Of course, this was going to be the highlight of our high school memories. Heaving a sigh, I scanned myself again in the mirror of my bedroom. The dark green dress was cut in a deep 'V' neckline extending through the rear, showing my cleavage and my bareback. The satin fabric draped long to my feet but it had a high slit on the left side, exposing my almond leg.I was already used to wearin

"After almost four months of training, I hope you've learned a lot, Mad Crow."Smiling at my superior, I gave him a salute which he returned accordingly. I could feel the eyes of the soldiers from the field. They've thought that I had completely enlisted myself in the military after graduating high school. But in truth, my girlfriend's father just forced me to train here the whole summer. It was supposed to be a normal military summer program but he had another plan for me. He enrolled me in Basic Combat Training.Aside from that, he introduced me to Captain Caldwell who taught me a lot about defense and security. At first, I thought he was just a strict old man due to his serious face but he was a teenage boy at heart. Although he gave me a hard time when it comes to training, he was so easy to get along with."Thanks to your torture, Captain. I've learned hard."Captain Caldwell chuckled and tapped my arm. "That's what Dead Scythe wants you to do. I just couldn't believe that he wou

I crossed the line.The reality line. Beyond this phase of your life, you would start to realize things and think about the future ahead of you. Fear would creep into your system. Responsibilities coming and your brain would fizz to a decision between right or wrong. Mostly, your heart speaks about happiness while the mind screams for practicality.Unfortunately, I was incapable of following my heart and my mind because I was forced into a trap. What I was about to ask to the love of my life wasn't practical and I was also not certain that it would result in happiness. I was somewhat pushed into this version of myself that I'd never known. I looked at myself in the mirror and I no longer see 'the Khloe'.Because a man shaped this new version of Khloe Summer for his own interest. He took advantage the guilt in my heart whenever I imagine myself defying his rules and demand. I had been saved before and Jet tried to trap me by claiming he owns my life but he never succeeded. I've never l

The sound of my alarm clock stirred me awake, causing my consciousness to rise from dark slumber.Slowly, I opened my eyes, my vision was getting clearer while the sunray from the window of our apartment caressed my sight. Once the hazes diminished, a large smile came upon my lips as I gazed at the gorgeous creature beside me. I began from her long eyelashes touching her fair skin, then my eyes fell to her cute perfect nose. Then to her lavish lips and all II wanted to do was to kiss them right this moment yet went against the idea shortly. I wanted to cherish this moment I called a masterpiece.The masterpiece I'd longed for. The picturesque art I wanted to see every morning for the rest of my life.Wow! I couldn't believe that I was as smooth as the moonwalk dance. MJ kill me now!Hilary scrunched her brows when the sound alarm got louder and it was my indication to wobble away from this blissful moment. I reached for my phone from the nightstand and immediately put the alarm into a

"Here we go," Hilary beamed as she placed our plates on the table. "It's not much but I totally did my best."I looked over the dish with a smile — a happy smile. It was the first time she'd cooked for me and it was giving me a blissful excitement. She really did her best but overdone it for the first time though. It was a steak dish but I couldn't figure out its ingredient without tasting it first. But I would let her do the talking."Care to tell me what's this all about? Not that I'm trying to criticize you but it's unfamiliar to my eyes."Hilary gave me a timid smile. She bit her lip and rubbed her neck in coyness. "Umm, it's charred steak and broccolini with cheese sauce.""Oooh, sounds rich," I chuckled and then cut a strip of steak. "And it's medium-rare."Hilary laughed as she watched me in anticipation. "To be safe. You like it medium-rare, right?""Absolutely."Once I put it in my mouth and chewed on it, I knew there was something wrong. It had to be salty because she said i

"Andante.""W-What?" I murmured between our pressed lips.Hilary chuckled softly. "You were asking what's on the play. It's Andante of Mozart."I moaned when she slipped her tongue between my lips in hunger. Lifting her on the art table, I melt into our searing kiss, not minding if I was bothering her from her homework. I just couldn't resist touching her, seeing her making art on the canvas with just my shirt and her lacy underwear. Who wouldn't feel lucky if you have a talented and gorgeous fiancée?As I enveloped her waist inside my arms, she locked her legs around mine and our kiss gradually made fire with each clash. Even so, I had to pull away and went to ravish her neck. Hilary drew her head back and pressed her hand on the back of my neck, surrendering on my lips.Aside from the intense attraction I have for her, hearing Mozart's piano pieces urged me to delve furthermore. So I slipped my hand under my shirt she was wearing and then caressed one of her nipples. She moaned at t

"Happy Birthday!! Make a wish!"I timidly smile at them while Hilary raised the cake in front of me. I closed my eyes and only wished for the happiness of all the people I love the most. It was something general but would be worth it anyway in the long run. Opening my eyes, I blew off all the ninety candles and Hilary smeared my face with coffee frosting. I chuckled, giving her a warning look, to which she responded with a wink.Arisa and Quinn clapped as they seated on the other side of the table. We were in the VIP room of the dining restaurant that Hilary had booked for us. The place was already an old restaurant but just renovated months ago so the sophisticated interior looked fresh in the eye. It smelled like a scented paint mixed with the aroma coming from the kitchen. It seemed a popular dine-in stop as I noticed that the area was almost already full.

The harmonious chirps of the birds lurched me out of my daydream, illuminating the polar night before my eyes. The painting had an emotional value in my heart. It was a hidden gem hanging inside a wooden treehouse, an art which was denied from the world. For me, this was more authentic than any art I have ever seen. Because it seen memories and growth. It was seeing the fruition of my existence through the age of time. Its original painter was no longer in this world, and yet every time I stare at it, it would always make me feel alive. Now it was watching me about to step closer to another chapter of my life."You need me?" the familiar voice asked, causing my eyes to avert from the magnificent painting.Mad stood a few feet away from me. And I looked at her dashing presence. She was wearing a long burgundy velvet dress enlightening her feminine persona. Her medium short curls were braided in style. However, I could still feel her menacing presence as she sat on the couch, next to me

*trigger warning*The rain poured out of nowhere, causing me to bolt into the cab in a hurry. Once I was in, I placed the box of art material beside me with a smile. I was certain that Hilary was going to give me an earful of rant for buying her another set of brushes. Last month, I had surprised her when we went to an art gallery of her favorite modern artist. She was so ecstatic to see those modern arts with me. She even managed to buy one of his masterpiece as a keepsake for attending a launching event for the first time.All I ever wanted is to make her happy. Since we moved in together three months ago, our relationship got stronger. Although there were some arguments, we wouldn't let it pass midnight and would just talk it out like a mature couple. We shared our dreams with each other and we adjusted our flaws according to our individuality. We both struggled to manage our schedules because she'd started her part-time job in a library near the university just two weeks ago while

The deadly silence of the room enamored the scene underneath my sight. I couldn't hear anything but I was seeing his bare body towering over me, his hands around my neck. The dark shades of his orbs were the roots of evil, anger was prominent as they stared at mine. The air was so rare, serenity was nowhere to be found. My lung wasn't functioning as it tried to seek even an ounce of life.He had a mad smile on his face, relieving himself using my damaged soul. It was sickening, how he moved against my body. I wanted to shut my eyes and just take all the illusion away. I was aware that this was just a nightmare I had no control with. The nightmare that could possibly happen afterward, if all else had failed.At least, there was no pain. But only deadly silence. And once I finally found a chance to breathe, I screamed at the top of my lungs, knowing it would be my key to reality.Once again, I jerked up and raced for a breath of air. Then I quickly moved my eyes to Hilary, but this time

I didn't want to admit it but I was saddened by the news that Mad was gonna leave today. Her job here was already done. Even though I'd only known her for a while, she'd already made a huge impact in our lives and someday, I would have the chance to pay her back for saving my life, that's for sure. Despite her assurance that we were going to be safe from now on, still, I was holding this poisonous threat in my heart. If I was to decide, I wanted Hilary's personal bodyguard to stay with us, like forever. I'd finally considered her as our friend already, despite my irritation towards her the first time we've met. She grew on me along with her insightful advice."Are you sure you don't want us to drop you off at the airport?" Hilary asked Mad, hugging her tight.As usual, Mad felt awkward at the gesture, causing me to smile endearingly at them. "You're squeezing her so hard, waltz. Let her breathe."Hilary stepped an inch away while pouting at her bodyguard adorably. "I'm gonna miss you,

"Are you sure about this?" Quinn asked, glancing at me curiously."I need this closure," I said faintly. It was still early in the morning and yet, the dark cloud was already blocking the rays of the sun. The weather seemed to match my mood at this moment— dreadful and dark. The wind caressing my hair and skin from the open window of my sister's car greatly sent the aroma of the cold daybreak.We were on our way back to our town. I had to do this so that I could see him with my own eyes— that he's gonna be there, confined with his life rotting away. My rage for him was so palpable but somewhere in my heart, I pitied him. In the first place, he was mentally damaged because of the life that was forcefully shoved into him. That Malum tortured and brainwashed Jet's whole existence like a trained lion in a circus. However, we all have choices and Jet chose to be consumed by his own insanity. He let others systemize his own beliefs and his own life. And those choices nearly called upon the

"Hey, you're still staring at your portrait? You love it that much, huh?" Hilary questioned, hugging me from behind. She gently swayed our bodies together side by side, toning the atmosphere into the essence of sweetness.With an unbreaking smile, I eagerly nodded. We were standing in my study room and I'd been gawking at the painting of mine since I came home from my last class of the day. It astounded me to the core that someone painted me for the first time.This work of art that Hilary had given me for my birthday was the best thing I'd ever receive as a present in my whole life. Aside from the fact that it was from perfect her, I was also overwhelmed by the smudges of bright acrylic dyes covering the grudges area underneath my whole feature. It was an absolute abstract of my face tinted with sophistication and beyond."I love it so much. I can't stop staring at it every time I come here," I said, beaming happily.Hilary giggled, kissing me on my shoulder. "I'm glad you do because

A soft caress stirred me awake from unconsciousness. Gently, I opened my eyes to see my gorgeous masterpiece who was holding my hand tightly on her cheek. Her eyes were already submitting to sleep but she was trying to fight it. I was about to reach out for her but a sudden pain at the back of my head halted me."My waltz," I groaned out, breaking her subliminal state to abrupt panic. Hilary blinked as if she was just dreaming. I squeezed her hand tightly to emphasize my presence while I lifted my other hand to touch my head. However, Hilary was quick to stop me, pushing my arm back down."No, Klo. They just put a bandage on your wound," she said, her tone was full of concern.That was my cue to scan the surroundings and I could tell that I was in a hospital room. My memories charged back in my head and it instantly produced a fear within my system. Pushing myself to sit up, my girlfriend carefully guided me as she stood up from her seat."W-What happened?"Hilary sat on the edge of t
