Sweet Temptation Chapter 9
Why do we cling to what we loose while we ignore what we still hold? -Steven Erikson. |I R I S|"Don't be scared. You're safe now." Rowan reassured and I was starting to believe at these two. "Yup." Aleeza said popping the 'p' as she settled the tray of snacks on the bed in front of me. I am really hungry. I have barely ate anything from last two days. Even the food Rowan brought me last night didn't do anything for my lost appetite. But now when I have some hope that I could be safe. Like, maybe, just maybe, I can live. I am suddenly starving. "This is your room." Aleeza informed me when I took one snack from the tray and put it in my mouth enjoying the crunchy taste on my tongue. I closed mt eyes and devoured the taste of the delicious food. "Thank you." I thanked her with a genuine smile on my lips. I don't remember the last time I smiled with all those chaos going on in my life. Aleeza returned my smile and I turned my head to Rowan, "Th

He was a man of black and white. And, she was color. All the color he had. -Fredrick Backman. |L O R E N Z O|My eyes fluttered open in the morning when I saw that the sun has already rose. Groaning, I got up from the warm embrace of my bedsheet, stretching my body. I ran a lazy hand through my messy blond hairs. Sliding the curtain to one side, I took in the sunrays that tried to reach me through the glass window. My eyes feel down on Aleeza and the little cat who were sitting in the garden, talking like two lost friends. Aleeza did the most of talking Iris only gave her small smile in return every now and then. "Admiring the view?" Lucas spoke and I found him standing beside me. I don't even know when he came here. His eyes focused on the girls sitting in the garden. "Nothing to admire, Lucas." I said turning around from the window and throwing a t-shirt over my head, covering my naked upper body. "Come on, she is so fucking gorgeous." Lucas

What a marvellous feeling it would be, if we could say exactly how we felt. What a monumental victory. What a terrifying thought. -Akif Kichloo|I R I S|Two days have passed in the blink of an eye with these two persons always around me. At this point, I think they are more scared for me than I am. Even after four days of being here I haven't checked the whole mansion, which I desperately want to do because this is just how beautiful it is. "Wanna hear a joke?" Rowan asked from the wooden floor in the room he was laid down on. "Not really." Aleeza said, quickly. In these four days I've realised that whenever Rowan says there's a joke it will never be funny. Never. "Pleaseeeeeee." He whined looking at us with his puppy eyes. Aleeza and I looked at each other. We rolled our eyes before saying, "Fine, go ahead." We said in unison.Rowan now took the criss cross sitting position on the floor, actively. "Knock Knock." Rowan started, excitedly.

There is something so fucking magical about her smile. -Unknown. |L O R E N Z O|"Food," She replied to my question without looking at me. She sounded annoyed? The way she has been walking in this mansion since last four days and giving her angelic smile to Rowan and Aleeza made me want to throw her out of my damn mansion or leave myself. Because that melodic laugh of hers always sent a weird sensation in my body, the one I am not familiar with. I didn't even realised when my feets started walking on their own and stopped just behind her body. I towered her 5 foot 5 inches figure with my tall one. She tilted her head upwards and those big violet eyes looked up at me with the same fucking innocence in them. "Careful with your attitude, little cat." I warned not taking my eyes off her face. Her eyes flickered down before coming back to meet mine, again. Resting my one hand on the kitchen counter behind her, I leaned down and I felt her

Because there is nothing more beautiful than the way the ocean refuses to stop kissing the shoreline, no matter how many times it's sent away. - Sarah Kay. |I R I S|Aleeza is living three days later. Yes the most she extended her visit is for one day. So, I am left with three days to spend with her. Strangely, I don't feel scared among these people anymore, except him. Because he always have this dark look in his eyes that he gives me as if he wants me to be scared of him. Like, that's the only thing he wants. Even Mason doesn't give me that scary look and scowl anymore since I've made pancakes for me. I am glad everyone liked them. "Guys, it's 3 in the morning." Mason whined in sleepy voice, rubbing his eyes with the back og his hands. "Don't ruin it, Mason!" Aleeza complained as she tried to make him stay till the end of the third movie we are watching right now. It's just the four of us. Lucas, Mason, Rowan and me. For the first t

You will always be fond of me. I represent to you all the sins you never had the courage to commit. - Oscar Wilde. |L O R E N Z O|By the time the movie came to an end everyone was sound asleep in their positions as the credits rolled on the seventy inches screen in front of me. Rowan was sprawled on the couch while Lucas kept on waking up again and again due to the sudden imbalance he was receiving because of being sleepy. Both the girls were sleeping with their heads resting on my either shoulders. To my surprise, even Iris had her head on my shoulder and she looked deep in sleep. I was stuck in a weird situation and I had no idea of how am I suppose to get out of it. I kicked Lucas since he was closer than Rowan and he fell down on the floor from the couch."What the f-" He cursed but stopped when his eyes fell on me. He looked back and forth between Aleeza and Iris before cocking a confused brow at me. "Help me with them." I told him

If you can't beat fear, just do it scared. - Glennon Doyle Melton.|I R I S|Surprisingly, I woke up in my bed in the morning and for the life of me I can't remember how I ended up here. I don't think Rowan carried me up here since I know he sleeps like a dead horse and he was already asleep when I, mistakenly, fell asleep on his side. I don't even know how I managed to fall asleep with him sitting right beside me. That was so freaking stupid and careless of me. What if I had annoyed him in sleep and wouldn't have woken up today. I vanished the thought from my mind as soon as it entered my mind. Even the AC in the room was on with a warm blanket covering me. No one except Rowan and Aleeza know that I sleep with AC and blanket on. Since, Rowan can't be the one does that mean it was Aleeza? I laughed on the image that created in my mind of Aleeza carrying me to my room. Sure the girl loves me but she would rather kick my ass to wake me up than carry me t

I knew I was playing with fire when we met, so I couldn't blame you when I got burned. - Bridgett Devoue.|L O R E N Z O|It was 11 in the morning when I called Lucas and Mason in my room to proceed with my idea. While Mason was standing in an attentive position in front of me, Lucas on the other hand was standing like some wild animal who ran out of his cage just now. The hairs on the top of his head were messy enough to become a nest for birds but I decided not to point it out. "What are we here for?" Mason asked, seriously. Lucas hummed, agreeing with Mason's question as a long contagious yawn escaped him. I rolled my eyes at his state and turned my focus back to the better presentable one, Mason. "It's time we talk about the most important matter in our hands." I said dragging the coversation while waiting for her to pass right by my room. "Why isn't Rowan here then?" Lucas complained like a fucking kid as he plopped down on the soft co
