All Chapters of Sweet Temptation: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Provoking each other is our love language. -Unknown. |I R I S|Aleeza has been on the top of the world since she I have told her that Lorenzo supports her in her decision of going to college. This is also the reason that I and Rowan ended up watching a new movie whole night while gossiping over three tubs of ice cream, which I can feel in my bones are going to cause a cold now. I kicked the sheets sideways when a knock appeared on the door of my room. I am feeling so exhausted right now since I have not get a good and most importantly enough sleep to function like a normal human being.I kicked Rowan on the back which resulted in him rolling down the bed and groaning at the sudden fall. But, I didn't paid much attention as I tried to go back to sleep."You have become so violent, Riz." Rowan tells me in a sleepy and pained voice as the person on the other side of the door knocked again. Rowan groaned but headed towards the door anyway. I was

We make each other alive. Does it matter if it hurts? -Ingmar Bergman. |L O R E N Z O|My mind is chaos as I fight the urge to force her to admit who she belongs to. She doesn't know the height of my obsession with her and I am keen on making her realise that. But then she had to say, "Don't force me, Lorenzo" in that soft and collected voice. Her voice was so low and shaky that I thought she would start crying right now. So, despite the urge to get my way with her I leaned backwards and met her violet eyes which looks at me like I am her saviour, right now but she has been her own saviour for the whole life. My heart starts beating wildly against my rib cage when I register the look on her face. I feel like killing someone so I can take the memory of her current facial expressions out of my mind. I set her both the wrist free and she brought them up to take my face in her palms, gently, like she wants to be careful with me. Like, she wants

I am terrified by this dark thing that sleeps in me. -Sylvia Plath. |L O R E N Z O|The guards bow to me when I pass them to enter the mansion. The gardens before the mansion are looking more lively than before. The flowers which Iris water almost everyday, are looking beautiful even under the light of a bulb. I walked a little faster and opened the door of the mansion. To my surprise it is all dark inside, not even a light is on. A frown touched my lips as I checked my surroundings for any kind of danger. Just then Iris' words from earlier repeated in my head. She said she would watch a horror movie today. Does that mean she did all this to make it more exciting? Because there is no way that there is an electricity cut when all the lights from outside are still very much working. Like Rowan says and does.With careful foot steps and not ignoring the chances of it being a completely different situation I step ahead. "Iris?" I called but n

Perhaps home is not a place but simply an irrevocable condition. -James Baldwin. |I R I S|"Now, I need you to calm down and tell me what fuck happened." He asks when I am pretty sure the sun is soon to rose. It's close to 5:30am and yes, we did stay awake whole night. He stayed with me. I peel away from his warm embrace despite wanting otherwise to face him when I tell him. "There was someone in the house." I tell him and his expressions stays blank while I speak, "I was hungry and was going to kitchen but then suddenly all the lights went off and it was dark everywhere." I explained as the scene played slowly again and again in my head. "Then, suddenly that person came out. He was dressed in a black hoodie. Matching the darkness around me." I say as my mind drifted of to the last night. I told him everything and he listened attentively, his facial expressions changed slowly from blank to murderous. "Come out, baby." His heavy voice said

Look how we bleed from all this wanting. -Ama Asantewa Diaka. |L O R E N Z O|"Do you think-" Lucas started but over excited child among us, Rowan, cut him off in between. "All the time. I am a good thinker, you know." He smiles widely at Lucas and I shift my attention ahead of me. I have better things to do. "That's not what I meant. Do you think-" Rowan again interrupted poor Lucas, thinking that this is where the question ends ever fucking time. "Yep." Rowan answered with a grin. "Will you be quiet?!" Lucas snapped and I think Rowan just enjoys getting on everyone's nerves, including mine, especially mine. "I am trying to ask you something." Lucas says. "Ask away." Rowan says as he brings out a fucking candy from his pocket. What the fuck he is? A toddler? "Thank you." Lucas said, sarcasm dripping from him voice, but Rowan seemed to be deaf when it comes to this thing called sarcasm because he answered, "You're welcome." "Ugh I forgot what I
