All Chapters of Silenced Temptations: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

"Why did you call me here?" Erich rudely asked, gritting his teeth, feeling powerless before her demands as both of them were sitting in her apartment. "No need to be so infuriated." April smiled, putting her elbow on the table and leaning close to his face. "You have swore to not let me live in peace." "Yes." She replied shamelessly, making Erich jaw drop in disbelief about how she could be this heartless."Why!?""Because whenever I see you with Red, it burns me." She hissed. "Why don't you get it? She is not mine." Erich reasoned, hoping she will understand what between him and Red is nothing but to no avail. "How could you say this?" April asked in ire."She is not mine! Still, today, she is Lucifer's... Please stop it, April, for what crimes are you punishing me from?" Erich asked, his voice becoming dolorous. "What did you do? The problem is you did nothing!" April said angrily, raising her voice. "What could I do when you were nothing to me?" Erich asked in a faint tone,

Back to the point where Lucifer thought Erich would be the bad guy in the eyes of everyone and Red after his action of either insulting Red or throwing her out but his plan failed. At some peculiar points he was ashamed of his depraved thoughts which led him to do this but what could he do anyways? Believing Red is not happy.Lucifer firmly believes Red is forced into this marriage, he will do anything to win her trust and give her the life they always desire, the life they dreamed together for a brief moment, he cannot let go of it.But his everything washed away when he saw Erich kissing Red under the heavy rain with such passion. It burned his very core badly. His plan was left hanging as he cannot be the hero of her eyes, not today. Lucifer cursed under his breath and went back to April's apartment, the place he is staying. "What the fuck was that, April!?" Lucifer yelled, pulling his hairs in frustration. "Why? What happened?" April asked, raising an eyebrow. Not getting wh

'When did I become like this? How can I melt in my emotions and fuel his sorrows to the extent he will perish?' Red sadly thought, staring at her hands, devoid of every emotion while looking at two notes of 'sorry' in her hand, confirmed that the person who used to give her a rose back in University is none other than Erich. A tear rolled down her cheek, cursing her heart which cannot connect his heart. On the strayed path she couldn't make her surroundings break. She never thought it would take her almost seven years to find this person but the moment when Red came to her show and Erich sent her a note of apology with a white rose just like before when he never had any fault, hurt her deeply. Red took a deep breath and looked at her reflection in the mirror, "Let's end this." She said to herself. "I will see what pulls us apart." She sighed, curling her hands in a fist and taking a shower to calm her mind for the show. Red got ready, took a survey of her models, putting up h

"What happened to your lips?" April asked. "It's nothing." Lucifer replied. "Did you get into a fight?" April asked again. "I told you, it's nothing." His strained voice came. "Okay, okay but why did you come back? Don't you have any work?" April asked, filing her nails while enjoying her whiskey. Lucifer, who was working on his laptop, engrossed in his work, replied, "I wrapped my work for a month," He said with his eyes glued to the screen. "So you are here for a month." "And I need to talk to Red before it." He said. "She doesn't even want to see your face." April replied. "I don't understand why? She is not letting me talk or justify, being so unreasonable." He said in vexation. "By the way, Lucifer... I don't understand why I am still here? It's not like I could do anything for you now." April mumbled, having a sip of her drink, looking at him from the corner of her eyes. "I am telling you, it's no use. I will leave their lives before Erich tell Red everything-" Lucifer st

"I want to start things over between us." Red breathed out, closing her eyes while Erich traced his fingers on the side of her face with his heart racing rapidly. "Erich please." Red spoke inaudibly. Erich gently pushed her down on the bed and moved back, smiling, "Good night." He said and left her alone in the room to think about her words and thoughts. She couldn't sleep at night, nothing made sense to her with millions of questions roaming her mind and the betrayal pricked a needle in her heart, she needed guidance but seemed like she was being manipulated by sympathy. The next day, she woke up early and didn't find Erich next to her. He slept in the other room, She sighed, freshened up. Red readied up and looked at her dead eyes in the mirror. "Smile, Red. You are going to start a new life today." She told herself. And who do you truly love? A question echoed in her mind and blended angst. She shook her head, forming a fake smile and walked out.
