Shawn explained. Lately, he seemed to be looked obsessed by ghosts work. The woman who is faceless for all of us. "You sound obsessed with her." Logan gave words to my thoughts. "Because she is fucking fantastic." Shawn retorted. "Nic, there is an important underground fight today." Crystal informed as she appeared on the door. "I would go there to handle that." She added. Just then an idea popped up in my mind. It's been three days since I confronted Zyra. Life has been pretty busy lately. I am sure all of us can use some time to ourselves. "Crystal." I called after her and she turned around, "Everyone would be there tonight." I told her and she nodded understanding as she headed out of the room. Hmm. An underground fight. °°°People were sc

What I feel for you can't be conveyed in phrasal combinations; it either screams out loud or stays painfully silent but I promise -- It beats words. It beats worlds. -Katherine Mansfield.|N I C O L A S|"Make sure, the security is tight enough. I won't tolerate any mistake." I said on the phone and the incharge of security replied from the other side.Without saying anything further, I disconnected the call. It's been a long day and there is so much more to still go. Throwing auctions has never been easy but at least I enjoy the power it gives me.I laid down on the bed with my legs falling down the bed in an attempt to take a quick relaxing nap. But the ringing of my phone tells me otherwise. Groaning, I picked the call up."Yeah, Crystal?" I asked."The firearms are checked and the security is in place. Can you tell Logan to take my place for next hour?" Crystal requested and I told her it will be done before hanging the call.It isn't possible for one

Have you ever been in love? Horrible, isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. -Unknown. |N I C O L A S|The hall is surrounded by different species of people. Some laughing their heart out while there is a permanent scowl on other halves' face.The bright lights shining in the hall and the huge chandelier sparkling right above my head is adding to the glamour of the auction.My eyes wandered in the hall full of people until they stopped on a certain woman with green eyes and dark hairs. She was wearing a dark green colored classy gown with long slit that stopped on the top of her mid thigh. The top of her gown is of sparkling black color with one sided strap of color like her eyes.She stands out in the crowd of hundred

Being raised with cold eyes, taught me not to cry. -Unknown. |Z Y R A|Flora is fine. It was just a matter of seconds where she had difficulty breathing but other than that she was completely fine. But it doesn't matter that we aren't running out of time to get her treated even when the payment is ready and we have the diamond but my feelings for Nicolas are making it difficult. That's why I always preferred it without feelings. Feelings fuck everything up. Feelings were the sole reason that forced me to shut mine off but then he came like a storm and awakened all the feelings I tried so hard to put to sleep. Only if my life wouldn't have been so complicated it had be easy to sort things out. But everything is tangled here and my priority is Flora as health and her treatment. Not amount of feelings can ever change my priority from that. "Zyra, Are you okay?" I heard him ask, standing beside me with his hand resting on the small of

How can I ever get tired of my thoughts when I have you in them, the only thing that brings piece to my mind, a mind full of chaos. -Unknown. |N I C O L A S|She left as soon as she woke up. And, it's been hours bit she still isn't back. As much as my feets tell me to go out and look for her, I know it would end up bad. Because I saw the way she looked at me when I discovered that it is her birthday today. Like, I found out something no one was supposed to know. Like birthdays are a forbidden thing and not something worth celebrating. Aleeza, who is always excited ab out throwing parties and dragging everyone to useless sleepless nights is sitting, silently, scrolling through her phone like it is not the birthday of one of her closest friend today. Flora, best and childhood friend of Zyra is accompanying Aleeza as she sips on her cold coffee. It seems fucking bizzare to watch these two sitting, calmly, like they know that this day isn't go
