She would rather walk alone then follow someone else's shadow.

"PUT THE GUNS DOWN!" Aleeza yelled for the second time and I took his stupid wallet out of my pocket, throwing it at his face but he managed to catch it.
"Go to hell." I cursed and turned around walking away from him. He is a stupid grey eyed human who happens to piss me off at our first meeting, not technically though.
"Okay, am I hallucinating?" Flora's voice fell in my ears and I knew what was going on in her mind.
"No. He is really here." I confirmed and the color drained from her face and the look of shock took over.
"I th-" Flora stopped mid sentence when Aleeza showed up with her brother beside her. He has his arms resting inside his pocket as he eyed me with a look of amusement.
"Girls, he is my brother." Aleeza introduced and just by a single glance at Flora's face I could tell that she was thinking only if she would have been drinking water she would spit it out on the confession just to add dramatic effects. That' Flora Hart for you. Dramatic.
"Nicolas Russo." She added.
"And, they are my friends. Flora and Zyra." Aleeza introduced us but there was our very own staring contest going on. He refused to break the eye contact and I am never the one to loose.
"Such disorders can put you in dangerous situations." Nicolas said and I frowned confused on the words he was blabbering in front of me.
"The fu-" Flora interrupted me.
"Nice to meet you, Nicolas." Flora said, formally and I rolled my eyes on her formal behaviour.
"Which disorder were you talking about?" Flora asked him and it was now his turn to frown. He narrowed his eyebrows at his sister, confused.
"She don't know?" He asked her and I think everyone in the room was just standing dumbfounded and confused.
"Kleptomania. He is talking about Kleptomania." Aleeza cleared the confusion and I wanted to bang my head on the wall nearby.
It's been ages since Aleeza have developed the thought that I have kleptomania and I don't get it treated. She doesn't know about Flora's health condition. We didn't wanted to worry her and it isn't even her problem to start with.
But since Aleeza found out that I steal money from here and there, she started thinking that it's because of that fucking disorder and we never managed to get her convinced otherwise.
"For fuck's sake, Zee." I sighed and Aleeza rolled her eyes.
Nicolas' eyes moved back and forth between us as the conversation went on. "I don't have Kleptomania." I cleared to Nicolas for once and all.
"Suree." He stretched the word mocking me as he rolled his eyes and turned around to leave before I can snap at his stupid face.
Fucking asshole.
"See you at lunch, Zee." We heard him yell from a fair distance to the room.
"What lunch?" Flora questioned.
"Thought we were spending the day together." I added.
Aleeza bite her tongue something she usually does whenever she thinks she messed up. But then the corner of her lips curved into a smile which was the indication that she has figured a way out of this mess.
"Let's start from lunch." She beamed.
"I don't think that was in plans." I crossed my arms against my chest looking at her with raised brows.
"I am in." Flora said and they won. I sighed in defeat and both of them danced in victory.
Aleeza mentioned that there was still time in lunch. So, in the mean time both Aleeza and Flora gossiped about random things, I was least interested in. I'd much more important things to worry about.
Like Nicolas fucking Russo being my friend, Aleeza's brother.
I know we are safe because he doesn't even have a slight idea that the person he saw was itself a disguise. But one should never underestimate the power of the enemy, specially when you are dealing with someone as powerful as Nicolas Russo.
On the other hand, I know instead of worrying about Nicolas Russo being Aleeza's brother I can use it to my advantage. I can keep a close eye on him and his team and their each step. That way I can make sure that they never get to us.
But nonetheless I know he is not the one to be underestimated, just by a look at his face you can tell that he wears the smell of blood and death like a perfume.
"Do you think they'll be fine having us?" Flora's concerned and hesitated voice reached me breaking the chain of my thoughts.
"We can always hang around later." I added. I don't want to make Aleeza feel pressurized.
"Come on, girls." She shrugged on our statements and added, "I know what I am doing." She assured.
"Cool, then."
When the conversation ended we were on our way to Russo's penthouse. Flora looked confident and I believe she won't fuck it up but there is no doubt that the murderous glare of Nicolas Russo can even scare a witch.
My phone in the pocket of my jeans rang stopping us in our tracks. I took it out checking the caller id.
Cillian.
"You guys go ahead, I've to take the call." I told them and Flora's eyes instantly found mine to make sure that everything is alright. I blinked at her twice, assuring her. She nodded in return, relaxing.
"Okay." Aleeza nodded and both of them went ahead while I made sure that the place is safe to take the call before taking it.
"If it ain't my favourite girl." His mocking voice fell in my ears as soon as I attached the phone to my ear.
"I am nobody's girl." I told him in all seriousness. This is the second time we are having this conversation after stealing the diamond.
"We'll see that." He said followed by a light evil laugh.
"Why did you called?" I questioned reaching my limit of dealing with assholes for today. First Russo and now him.
"I need the diamond, now." He ordered and I take no orders from anyone.
"Where is the money?"
"I don't have the money, now." I can hear the grinding of his teeth as he spoke through clenched teeth.
"So optimistic of you to still call and ask for the shiny rock." As soon as my statement finished I didn't wasted another second on the stupid asshole and hung up.
It is officially an asshole day, today.
She is the perfect amound of chaos and peace. -r.h. Sin. | Z Y R A | "Your lips look lonely would they like to meet mine?" The fuck. I turned around to look at the owner of the voice only to come face to face with the manwhore of the team. Logan Walker. "Ex-fucking-cuse me?" I was already pissed after dealing with two assholes today and god just keeps adding in it. "Are you a light switch cause you turn me on." He winked at me, still keeping his stupid pick up lines. I take he is not good in reading obvious facial expressions. "This pick up line expired ages ago with your brain." I replied with a straight face. In response his lips only tugged upward when he smirked, "Feisty, just my type." The fuck is wrong with these people today! "Say another word and my fist would do the talking." I warned my arms crossed against my chest and my one brow raised, challenging him. Surprisingly, h
'We just want the world to love usfor the little monsters that we are.' -Atticus. |N I C O L A S|"She haven't sold the diamond in the market yet." Crystal informed me as if it was supposed to ease my anger, anyhow.It's been one week since we've been working like crazy on one single girl sho managed to trick all of us. She is fucking incredible at her job, I'll give her that."She is so damn hot!" Logan gushed walking inside the room with a man whore smirk plastered on his face.Everyone in the room, including me, looked at him as if he needs his head to be examined and honestly he really does."What are you talking about?" Shawn queried, his eyes narrowed in confusion while I and Crystal waited for him to answer Shawn's question. Even though we know Logan finds anything with boobs hot."Zyra." And when her name escaped his lips I couldn't help the grinding of my teeth and clenching of my fists. She has be
She never cared for the crown. She preferred a sword. -r.h. Sin|Z Y R A|Long story short, the mission ,yesterday, went more wrong than expected.So, here I am surrounded by Russo's and their friends to get treated by their family doctor because my stubborn ass refused to visit doctor when Flora suggested.And, Aleeza doesn't suggest. She orders. That's how I ended up here. But now looking at the cocky smirk plastered on that asshole face of his, I can't help but regret giving in to Aleeza.Aleeza, Crystal and Flora went to bring some bandage to wrap around to stop the bleeding and I took it as my chance to put my mask down but Nicolas Fucking Russo took me off guard with his words."And, here I thought you were brave enough." His teasing voice fell in my ear and when I looked up, I found him leaning against the door frame, flexing his muscular arms closed against his chest as his eyes pierced into mine.I don't know what's it about him but h
"Warming my hands on the bridges I've burnt." -Atticus |N I C O L A S|"Stabbing wound?" I questioned my voice laced with curiosity as I joined everyone."Yes, it's a knife stab." Noah informed me and I couldn't help but frown. And, my frown was directed to the green eyed woman seated at a fair distance.Everyone in the room directed their attention towards her, waiting for her to explain. Is she suicidal?"I-" She started but soon came to an halt when Flora spoke, "When she tripped and fall, there was a knife on the floor." She finished, quickly."So, you are bleeding because of a fucking knife?" Aleeza shrieked out of no where forcing Noah to flinch, reluctantly."Seems like it." Zyra muttered avoiding looking into her eyes which didn't settled well with me. She never do this, especially, not with me.Noah examined her injury and cleaned it before wrapping a bandage around it so it doesn't get infected. C
There is no worse evil than a bad woman; and nothing has ever been produced better than a good one. -Euripides |Z Y R A|"That was close." Flora sighed as she plopped down on the soft couch.I put the book down when she spoke. Even though she didn't mentioned anything but I know what she is talking about. The whole stabbing wound thing that happened in the Russo penthouse.Honestly, it was pretty fucking close."But you lied, smoothly." I said, appreciating her for her presence of mind because for once I though I really lost it. My mind."It just slipped." Flora shrugged as if it is no big deal which makes me wonder that if she really is such a good liar how many times has she lied to me?"Does that make you a liar, Flo?" I wiggled my eyebrows at her, teasingly. Because there are a few things Flora hate being called. One of them happen to be the word liar. Even though she knows that we are."I would like to
He was a warrior, with a fighters mind,And she was a battle, he lost everytime. -c.l. |N I C O L A S| "When is it?" I questioned Shawn who was still sitting in front of the computer. I wonder how come he haven't gone blind till now. "Tomorrow evening." He answered, simply, his eyes focused on the screen as he typed some random symbols which I can't even fucking name. "You sure, she will be there?" Crystal asked him. Which somehow reminds me of their secret hidden relationship. I haven't confronted them about it yet. And, I am not even going to talk to two pf my teammates about their forbidden love and all that shit. If they want me to to know I would know. Till then, I don't know. Period. "I am sure she didn't stole the diamond to drool over it." Logan asserted, munching on the green apple in his hands. He eats like a pig. But if we ignore the sound of him munching on apple so loudly and think about his statement. He mi
She was so terrifying when she was angry, even the devil shuddered with fear. -Unknown|Z Y R A|Logan lost.It didn't took Flora long to learn that he is a lost cause when he is fighting with a girl. All Flora had to do was divert his mind from her movements to her and boom.Logan lost.It is now turn for Shawn to enter the game. Shawn is a dangerous fighter. So, I worry for Flora. I am 99 percent positive that she is gonna loose. Because her hands works better on computer programme than on an human being."3..2..1" Aleeza counted excitedly munching on popcorns while enjoying the show.Fighting is something Aleeza would rather watch than do. Probably, because she have always stay away from her family's business. But she is enjoying the game, anyways.From the corner of my eye, I watch Nicolas whose eyes were already focused on me. I thought to immediately take my eyes off him. But something stopped me. Everything inside me stopped me.H
Be gentle, Every heart hides many wounds that never bleeds. -Unknown|N I C O L A S|She won.Because I was hesitant to put my hands on her and hurt her, anyhow. But the thing that came to me as surprise was how she fought like a trained fighter. Like a professional.It was an amusement to watch her fight and actually fight her. Just to lose. I ignored the voice in the back of my head as I stare up at the white ceiling with my hands resting under my head.Tonight was bizzare and chaotic, from the fights between the girls and boys to the girls deciding to pass the night while watching a movie. So, all the girls now are in Crystal's room watching some movies and gossiping, I suppose, like most of the girls do.It's been already more than an hour for me trying to sleep. But sleep is nowhere near me while a certain someone is on my mind too much for my liking.Ending the misery of turning right and left in my bed just to end up with thoughts
