Honeycomb Brown Eyes

Chapter 1“Miss Leigh! What are you doing back here?”, Pierre, the ground’s man and caretaker of Armani Complex said. As l stepped inside the front lobby that evening.“What do you mean Pierre? I live in this building don’t l”, l replied jauntily. As l walked towards the front desk to collect the spare keys to my apartment. Pierre frowned, the tiny wrinkles in his forehead creasing slightly as he gave me an apprehensive look. “But l just saw you arrive with Mr Danvers a few minutes ago”, Pierre said. His throaty voice dying down at the very end. Dylan Danvers was my longtime boyfriend of three and a half years. We started dating since l was twenty and just a freshman in college. Dylan was my first boyfriend as much as he was my first love. We met at a party in my first week of college.

The Dark

Chapter 2 I watched in horror as Dylan and the girl locked lips right before my eyes. Both humming in content as the sound of their wet touches sucking on each other filled the silent room. I felt so violated as l watched the scene unfold. Like a scene you’d only see in a movie. Shortly after they separated. And Dylan shot me a dirty and disgusted look before he stood up and walked towards me. Stopping a few inches away from my face.“Oh Leigh you pathetic little thing. At some point I did love you, l really did”, Dylan said as he raised his hands to cup my face.“But it was always about you and your stupid dead mother. And all the trauma, for fucks sake Leigh! You wouldn’t even let me touch you. You’re such a selfish bitch you know that?”, Dylan continued in a honeyed voice. Sliding his hands off my face before he took a few steps back away from me.“I only tolerated you because l pitied you. But then l realized that I can get better, l deserve better Leigh!Better than a paranoid gi

The Arrangement

Chapter 3“Where are you headed?”, the chauffeur asked me as we drove down the quiet streets of New York. I turned my head attempting to catch a glimpse of the man that sat behind us. But the thick tinted glass that separated us blocked my view. “To be fairly honest, l don’t know. Just drop me off at the nearest motel you can find”, I replied meekly. I was still skeptical of the old man driving the limo and the mysterious man that sat in the back. The chauffeur gave me an apprehensive look but didn’t say anything else. Soon after, he dropped me off a small run down motel that was near the outskirts of the city.“Here you go miss. Remember to stay safe”, the old man said as he opened the door for me.“Thank you so much”, l said as l climbed out of the magnificent car. Feeling a bit stupid for having doubted his sincerity. The chauffeur simply nodded his head before he got back in his car and drove off. I watched as the limousine drove away. Relieved l hadn’t ended up being abducted
