The Family

LORRAINE'S POVActor Ryder Sterling's stately home looks like a striking blend of a medieval palace and a modern villa. It has a central gatehouse, towers and turrets reminiscent of medieval castles.However, modern touches such as sleek floor-to-ceiling windows and metallic accents bring a contemporary touch to what would have otherwise been a traditional architecture."What do you think?" the actor asks as we step out of the car and I get a even more clearer view of his childhood home. He was born with a silver spoon in his mouth no doubt."This looks like King Uther Pendragon's palace," I say teasingly. "Are you sure your parents will approve of your dressing?" "They will love the design just like everyone else," he assures with a smile. "Let's go. A good dinner awaits." I nod and follow him towards the house.He made a call on our way here to let his parents know that he was bringing a guest home. A six feet tall statue of a middle aged man stands a few steps away from the gran

The Family part 2

Lorraine's Pov"Does she have to date Ryder in order to work with him?" Helen questions in a bitter tone. "You still haven't gained control of your envy, huh?" Ryder angrily responds. "I was just pointing out that -" "Shut up, Helen! Your lack of manners and reason has always been a disgrace to this family!" her father snaps. The girl grudgingly falls quiet and carries on to gulp down a chalice of wine. "Earlier on I checked your Instagram and noticed that you love cheesecake. I asked my servants to prepare one for your dessert," Mrs Sterling informs with the sweetest of smiles before motion one of the servants to bring the cake. The servant bows before rushing off.

The Servant's Punishment

LORRAINE'S POVI wake up to a loud knock on the wooden door. It's a little earlier than the time Ryder said he would wake me today. I roll out of the big bed and get to to door. "Leon?" I exclaim after opening the door and finding the young man waiting on the other side. "Shh! Ryder will kill me if he learns I came to you," he says in a low tone. "Okay. You want to come inside?" I ask."Not now," he answers. He pulls out a card from his pockets and hold it out for me to take. "You must be concerned and curious about the things you saw last night. I do not agree with the traditions of this family either. That's wht I came to warn you that there are many more stranger things you're yet to know about," he says. "What are they?" I curiously ask. "I don't have time to tell you everything, dear. But you can take my card and call me later," he answers. I take his card. He smiles before turning and walking away. I go back in the room and quickly shower and dress before walking out to

Prove Of Love part 2

He strides forward and I get ready to reach for the knife behind me. I am utterly shocked when he simply falls to his knees in front of me, bends and pecks the skin of my feet several times. I stumble back, my eyes wide. "You . . . did that?!" I exclaim as he rises back to his feet. "You asked me to prove my desperate desire to take care of you," he reminds. "I am guessing it's now your turn to keep your end of the deal. Accept all the good things that I will offer, including your dream Villa at Future Front." He adds with a proud smile."That's . . . a crazy deal," I complain. His graceful compliance to my embarassing demands isn't what I had anticipated. I had thought he would curse me and finally walk away for good."Well, I would be happy to do more than just kiss your feet. You only have to say it," he suggests."Get out!" I snap. He obediently turns on his heel and heads for the door, as if obeying my last command. He however halts and looks back at the last moment."The Vi

The Actor's Innocence?

LORRAINE'S POV"You pay to get cut up then come to my apartment?" I question in annoyance. I cannot even see her expressions as her entire face is hidden by the bandages. "I am sorry, Sarah. I clearly didn't prepare well before going under the knife. The bandages do not allow me to see much and I didn't know where else to go," she apologizes. "Last time I let you stay here you stole my dress and went to meet my ex-husband behind my back," I remind."And I have been trying to say sorry for days even when you wouldn't return my calls," she defends. How did I get a friend so stupid? I had decided to end our friendship for good but now I can't throw her back out when she can barely see where she is going.
