All Chapters of Falling Temptations: Chapter 91 - Chapter 100

OMAR'S POV : After the whole long meeting with our team about increasing the security, I ended up walking in the corridors of the south wing, the guests wing, where we are hosting the ball in no less than 3 hours. Not much time and the preparations are still going on as I can see a lot of people walking around holding the props in their hands. They will probably finish the arrangements in an hour or so. Otherwise, they will have to face my mother's wrath which is worse than the devil's. My mother is a perfectionist and she won't tolerate it if anything happens in her favourite gala. That's why we had this meeting with all the team and it took us most of the time for planning the security if by any chance someone manipulates my father's plans. It's a precautionary arrangement as we all know that there will be Miller's coming to the ball. And also the rat that is yet to be revealed. So, it's a must. But because of all these things, I didn't even get a chance to check on Grace. I don

SHANE'S POV : "Holy f*ck!" My breath hitched. My heart skipped and everything stopped at that moment. Alina and Jessica both were descending the stairs but my eyes were only on that one woman who took my breath away the moment she walked into the room. At this moment, I am positive that our lives are not about the amount of breaths we take anymore. It's the person that takes our breath away. And not about how many beats our heart can pound in a minute. It's the moment that increases our heart rate. And in my life, it's her. Only her! She can take my breath away in a second and can make my heartbeat go crazy the moment she enters. When I saw her in the club that night for the first time, I felt a strange connection between us. A feeling, which I couldn't describe. A spark, that I couldn't define. And the unshakeable urge to get close to her even though I tried so hard to resist it. Even after all the attempts that we had tried to push each other away, there was this hidden string

ALINA'S POV : F*cking unbelievable! But, I like it. Because, no one will know who is behind the mask. "Well, It was a surprise for me also." Jessica said while wearing her mask. It was a masquerade ball and I only got to know about this now. Shane came in front of me with a designer mask in his hands, that comes up to my nose, which matches my dress, perfectly. "If you don't want to wear it, then that's completely fine. These are for guests not for family." Wh-what? What did he just say? Family? My heart skipped and I felt something inside my stomach. Stupid heart, stop fluttering over everything. And those butterflies need to stop flying over a simple matter. "No, it's fine. I actually liked the theme." I said while taking the mask from his hand but he held it tight which confused me. Jessica and Nate left us alone, walking ahead of us. "Let me do it." He gently placed the mask, and slowly moved towards my back to tie the knot. And when he did, he didn't move, neither did I. And

ALINA’S POV : “You look stunning, my little devil,” Enzo said as we danced slowly to match the song.“I know.” I just shrugged with a smirk on my lips.He shook his head and chuckled, “You haven’t changed at all.”“Who said I had changed? It’s you, who thought that I have changed.” I said while taking a step forward while he took a step backwards.“Well, that was different. That change is different and I’m happy for it.” He said while swirling me around once before changing the partners.And he passed me to Aaron, as he switched partners with Jessica. “Stop talking nonsense, Enzo,” I said but he just smiled giving me a wink and whispered something in Jessica’s ear that made her laugh.“Is he bothering you, again?” Aaron said, pointing his gaze at Enzo. “His life is just a call away, you know. One call to Gio and he is done, for good.” Aaron smirked.I chuckled at Aaron’s suggestion while Enzo glared at Aaron which he ignored btw. “No need to call Pop. I can handle him.” I smirked, lo

SHANE’S POV : I made sure everyone left the room except for the people that I trusted and the people who knew about us.I told Rudy to take the girls with him to a safe place before they came. And he did. He took Emily and Grace with him telling them there was an important thing that he needed help with. But Alina?I didn’t find her anywhere in the room. And it made me furious at myself for letting her leave out of my sight. I just hope Nate convinced Jessica to find Alina and take her to the safe place on time. Because, if something happened to Alina, I would never forgive myself! She is very important to me. And I couldn’t even think of seeing her hurt.“Are you ready?” My train of thoughts broke when I heard a voice beside me.I looked at Lorenzo and nodded, “Always.” I told Lorenzo about what was going on when he insisted on not leaving the ballroom all of a sudden. He is stubborn but yeah, he could be helpful, if things go unplanned. Because sometimes, situations are unpredicta
