If you crush a cockroach, you are a hero. If you crush a beautiful butterfly, you are a villain. Morals have aesthetic criteria." -Nietzsche.|L O R E N Z O|The officers found nothing, as expected.Yesterday, when the officers barged into my mansion with official permission to search my house, I was pissed. I do not like watching people, specially people involved with law, interfering with my work. But I could not have lost my calm and have them something to feed on. So, I kept my calm and handled the situation with a charming smile instead of acting on my inner thoughts, that said to either kick their ass out of my goddamn mansion or tie them down in my basement. Then, there was Iris, standing in the corner of the mansion with sweaty palms, rubbing them over and over against the fabric of her skirt with panicked expressions like she is the criminal one here. So, when Rowan guided the officers inside the mansion, I had to stay back f

Chapter 81

I do not desire mediocre love, I want to drown in someone. -Unknown. |L O R E N Z O|"You know, I always liked you." Bianca admitted and I did not bothered to say anything on this topic so taking my silence as her answer she continued, "It was hard for me to see you with someone else-" I cut her off, immediately. "Iris." I spoke and she raised a confused brow at me, "Her name is Iris." I explained and she nodded, pressing her lips in a thin line. "Yeah, it was hard to see you with Iris, doing everything I imagined to do with you." She explained and I can not seem to figure out where exactly is any of my fault or why am I being told this? "And, your point is, Bianca?" I questioned cutting straight to the chase. "That whatever I did was stupid and reckless." Bianca admitted her fault with a look of embarrassment. "And, I am sorry for that." She apologized. "Okay." Is what I tell her and her eyes widened in surprise at my words as if I

Chapter 82

Every true love and friendship is a story of unexpected transformation. If we are the same person before and after we loved, that means we have not loved enough. - Elif Shafak. |I R I S|"So, you are already making friends." I say on the phone. "What can I say? People are always flattered by me." Aleeza answered from the other side of the phone a smile tugged at my lips at her self-obsession. It's been more than one week of Aleeza's college life and safe to say she is enjoying every bit of it. I have never heard Aleeza sound so happy and satisfied. Maybe freedom from this world is what she craved all the time. "Is Enzo at home? I couldn't reach him through phone earlier." Aleeza spoke. "No, he is out for some work." I tell her, honestly. Since the day of search by police officers he has been running here and there to find the people behind all these chaos but the boys failed. Lucas is sitting in the drawing room with Shawn, who arriv

Chapter 83

Use what talent you possess -the woods will be very silent if no birds sang there except those that sang best. -Henry van Dyke. |L O R E N Z O|I returned to home in the evening at approximately 6pm. Mason and Rowan were with me the whole day. While, Lucas stayed home to help Shawn with the technical stuff. I can not wait to find out whatever they have found out regarding the recent situation in our hands. Moreover, it's been an exhausting day and I missed, Iris, terribly. I can not wait to hold her and kiss her. Lucas and Shawn were seated in the hall with their eyes still focused on the laptop, just like I left them in the morning. "Found anything?" I asked walk I walking to them and taking a vacant seat beside Shawn. Shawn and Lucas looked at each other before meeting their eyes with mine. The look on their face was enough to convey that there is something wrong. "We have a bad news." Lucas started, pressing his lips into a thin line, t

Chapter 84

You are killing me, but you have a right to. Never have seen a greater or a more beautiful, or a calmer or more noble thing than you. Come on and kill me. I do not care who kills who. - Ernest Hemingway.|L O R E N Z O|"I know where did that person called from." Mark informed giving me a new hope and bringing me out of my frustrating thoughts. "Then tell me. What are you waiting for?" I said on the phone in urgency while people around me gave me weird and concerned glances over my impatient state. "What's the hurry, Enzo?" Mark responded annoying me and pushing me to the point where I would have no other option left other than threatening him with his dear life because there is nothing much he is afraid of loosing. "Do. Not. Test. Me. Mark." I gritted through clenched teeth putting pressure on each and every word that escaped my mouth.And the next sound that reached my ears from the other side of the phone was of laughing like a maniac. This ma

Chapter 85

What a shame that the girl who once believed in fairytales and magic had to be struck by reality with demons in her mind and the fear of never being loved. -k.f. |I R I S|Coincidentally, the phone call that was made to complain against the boys was made from the same supermarket, I and Rowan went to. This is going much longer than any of them expected. The house stays more silent and working with boys finding the rat. Because they think there is one. Though, I do not know much about it. I have a few pieces of information from here and there and it is impossible to solve the puzzle with these little pieces. So, I try not to make it more complicated than it already is. And, to keep my mind at ease in the deadly silent mansion that somehow creeps me out with no sound in the absence of boys, I started to play chess. Sometimes, Lorenzo plays with me when he is not working mostly I play with myself. Chess is a game of mind and winning

Chapter 86

I will be quiet when we can say 'sexual assault' and they stop screaming 'liar'. -Rupi Kaur. |I R I S|My screams tore through the darkness of my room and I expected someone from outside to come and help me. Clutching the towel tighter to my chest with both hands I backed away, slowly and carefully. The terror slowly seeping inside my veins as his smirk grew with his each step towards me. My heart races in my chest and goosebumps erupted on my body. "Come here, baby." His dark sinister voice causing a menacing feeling in me. I did not even realised when tears started building in my eyes, blurring my vision but I did not stopped. Not only I kept stepping away from him, wanting to keep distance between us but I even started throwing things at him from everywhere in my room. But he ducked everything causing all the objects to crash on the floor and shatter to pieces. My room is a mess right now with all the objects spread down on the

But if I sit in the rain maybe I can drown in something other than my own thoughts. -J. w. |L O R E N Z O|"Does that mean we are close?" Rowan asks Mark who explained the call details to us."Where did you get that from?" Mark give him a bizzare look as if he is different to think like that. Well, he is different like that. "The voice on the call obviously belongs to a woman, plus the call was made from the super market. All we have to do is get their phone records from that day to find out about her." Rowan summed up his thoughts shortly, showing off his intelligence. "It is not obvious that the call was made by a woman." Mark says and we frown at him because when we heard the call recording it was obviously high pitched enough to be considered of a woman. "What are you talking about? Which man speaks like that?" Rowan gives a look of disbelief to Mark. "The one who does not want to be caught." Mark comments and his words register

Chapter 88

She was drowning with rocks around her feet and the world stood by in life boats asking why she could not walk. -Atticus. |L O R E N Z O|I am in my car, driving recklessly not being able to get her pained scream out of my head. I keep on trying to call her but the phone is fucking switched off. My heart rate only fastens as anxiety and restlessness seeps inside my body. Rowan, Mason and Lucas keep on trying to call me but I decline their calls. I can not talk to them right now. I can not talk to anyone right now. I need her. I fucking need to see her. The need is both urgent and scary. But, I do not focus on that as I stepped in the gas further to increase the speed. The mansion looks calm and normal from outside and it should ease my worries to some level but it only makes me more anxious. I do not bother parking car as soon as I am in front of the main door, I get out and practically run inside the mansion. The lights glowed around in

Chapter 89

So many people become songs and poetry. But will never know our world is full of the ghosts of unspoken words and memories. -Unknown. |L O R E N Z O|Life is unpredictable. I never believed in this phrase. I thought this was just an excuse people used for explaining things they failed to predict. After all, people do not just accept failures, they create a million things to justify that the failure was bound to happen. But, now, I hold the hand of Iris in mine waiting for her to wake up and look at me with the same joy and shine in her big violet eyes. But she does not. She does not open her eyes nor she tells me that she is alright as I try to predict.She does not say that it was just a nightmare of mine and she is okay, right beside me. She just lays on the bed, unconscious. According to doctors, there is yet some time for the effect of drugs to disappear and her wake up. So, I hold her hand gently in mine afraid that she will d
