Chapter three
Lilly POV
After what seemed like forever, the class finally kicked off, as different lecturers kept coming in and out of our class for teaching, and at some point, I felt like screaming my lungs out. For goodness sake, they're frustrating me. Hours later, lecture was finally over, and without wasting time, I arranged my bag, and hung it on my shoulder, before standing up, after which I headed straight to the door, before storming out, with Nina, walking beside me. Gosh! I'm so damn hungry, if only I had known that they were going to take forever to get done with the lessons, I wouldn't have made the mistake of coming here without eating, gosh! Not that we have foodstuffs at home though, now I feel like I'm going to faint anytime soon. "Urgh! That was one hell of a lesson. I was already suffocating in there." Nina whined, as we walked through the hallway. She's so damn lazy, she's worse than me, but I feel the same though. Those teachers are just some bunch of frustrations. "And the thought of having test tomorrow makes me cringe, like urgh!" I cringed, and she chuckled. For heaven sake, what's funny about this now? I love studying, but it's natural not to like a particular lecturer, right? Our literature teacher disgusts me, and the thought of having his test tomorrow, makes me wanna strangle him to death. He's just too strict for my liking. "Not that you can avoid it though. I hate that man more than devil himself." Nina ran her fingers through her hair. This girl is damn crazy, even more than myself. "I'm famished, so right now, eating some food, is the only thing on my mind. Why don't we go visit the restaurant downtown, who knows, luck may just shine on us, but I don't have a dime on me." I groaned frustratingly, while tamping my foot on the floor. "I really want to eat some good food today, but there's no foodstuff at the dorm, and I don't have a dime on me either, what do we do? Is this how we're going to die of starvation?" She whined, while dragging her feet along with me. "I don't know." I heaved a sigh. This is what we go through almost everyday, stranded without food. At times we have to go hungry all day, and at times, we go to bed without eating, but no one ever know what we're going through, as we always smile, and act like everything is fine. What do you expect from two best friends, who are born with an iron spoon? I don't have any means of income, neither does she have, she's on a scholarship, same with me, we're two people from same world, stuck in poverty, it's crazy, right? But that's the truth. "I have an idea." She suddenly said, once we stepped out into the veranda, and I couldn't stop rolling my eyes at her, knowing she wouldn't come up with something helpful. She's only going to worsen the situation, and listening to her, is the last thing on my mind. "Just shut your mouth Nina, let me think of something. Not that you're going to come up with something that'll help us." I scoffed, while clutching my hands on the hands of my backpack, as we walked through the veranda. Racking my brain to come up with something that can help us, but I just couldn't come up with something. "How about we go eat at a restaurant, and run away? We'll go back and pay when we have the money." She smiled foolishly, as she suddenly stopped to look at me. I glared daggers at her, and shook my head unbelievably. Is she kidding me or is she being serious right now? How can she even suggest we do a thing like that, huh? For heaven sake, we're two adults, even if we don't have money to eat, doing something as shameful as that, shouldn't even cross our minds, right? "What?" She shrugged, and rolled her eyes. "You're unbelievable Nina, how could you even suggest we do a thing like that? What if they trace us to the dorm, and disgrace us? I can't do such shameful thing." I said dismissively, and started walking away. "Hey cmon, not that we're gonna steal it, we'll still pay back, just to save our lives for today." She whined, as she kept tugging on my arm, as we walked through the veranda. "Urgh! Nina can you just let me be please?" I groaned frustratingly, as we finally started climbing down the staircase. Nina can be very crazy when hungry, not that I'm different though, but suggesting this, isn't a good idea, I'm having a bad feelings about this. "Please Lilly, my ulcer will soon....""Argh! It's ok...fine...fine...I'll go with you." I said frustratingly. She's always fond of getting me to do what she wants with this ulcer stuff of hers, and it's so annoying. The truth is, Nina is an ulcer patient, the doctor advised her to eat good food, and make sure not to stay hungry. "That's my girl." She squeaked excitedly, and hugged me tightly, before grabbing my hand, and started dragging me away. "Let me go." I cried out, while running with her, but she didn't listen. After what seemed like forever, we finally got to the restaurant, and I glanced at her, giving her an 'are you sure about this' look, and she gave me an assuring smile. Taking a deep breath, I watched as she pushed the door opened, and we walked our ways in. Stepping inside the fancy restaurant, the aroma of delicious pasta, filled my nostrils, as I found myself, salivating. I just couldn't wait to have a taste of it.There were a few people around, making so many chairs empty, and walking over to the set of chairs, close to the door, we sat down. I guess you know why we choose the seat close to the door, right? We ordered for four plates of pastas and two chicken laps. At least, if we're gonna do this, we should eat to our satisfactions, right? Few minutes later, the waitress served us, and we started eating. We made sure to take our time, in order not to look suspicious, and after almost thirty minutes, we finished our food. After gulping down some water, I cleaned my mouth with a napkin, and damn, I feel so alive again. "When I count one to three, we're running." Nina leaned in on me and whispered, while I nodded in affirmation, as we both stood up. "One...two....three!" She said, and in a flash, we turned to run, when I collided into a strong surface, and fell roughly on my butt. Oh shit! We're screwed...Chapter fourThe man dropped dead on the floor, and Lucifer stood up. Raising his head, he licked the trail of blood from his lips, before teleporting to his throne again. Staring into space, his eyes blazing red, the aura around him darkened, sending shivers down their spines."Miguel, drop his body on the street." He said in his cold deep voice, and with that, he teleported to the garden. Appearing in the garden, he sighed softly, his bloodshot eyes, gazing into space, as the gentle wind, blew on his face, swaying his hair in rhythm with the direction of the wind, but his eyes remained unblinked.After staying in the garden for what seemed like forever, he finally teleported to his room, and in the next seconds, he walked into his spacious bathroom.Stepping into the very large and spacious bathroom, he got rid of his cloak, and flung it away, before reaching out to his leather jacket, revealing his brea
Chapter fiveLilly POVTurning around to run from the restaurant, I collided on a hard surface, which turned out to be someone's chest, as I fell on the floor in a loud thud, and winced in pains. What the heck! Is the person blind or something? Didn't he or she see me coming? The pains in my butt isn't my problem now, but the deep mess I'm in now. How the heck are we going to escape from this shit again, huh?"Are you ok Lilly? Please get up." Nina said worriedly, as she came to help me up, while the idiot I just collided on, stood like a log of word."Are you blind or what!" I snapped angrily, as I finally got on my feet, and raised my head to look at him, as I was welcomed with the most handsome creature ever. His body shape, is the most perfect one, his pink lips, his pointed nose, his flawless and spotless skin, gosh! How could a man be glowing in this manner? His eye colors are the rarest I've ever seen, his
Chapter sixDylan POVI stormed out of my room with my briefcase in my hand, as I used my right hand to buttoned my suit. I'm so damn late for work today, and I have an appointment to meet up with in thirty minutes.Descending down the stairs, I was welcomed with the sweet aroma, that filled my nose, and I didn't need anyone to tell me that my maid is at it again. I walked briskly to the kitchen, where I met her, busy with cooking."Good morning Sir. You're up already?"She greeted politely, as she bowed slightly, but my eyes were on the food she was making, but too bad I won't be able to stay back and eat from it, I'm so damn late for work, and I have an important appointment to meet up with. "Morning Jane. Don't bother packing food for me, I'll be very busy at work later, so I won't have time to eat, maybe when I get back from work later."I
Chapter sixLucifer POVStepping out of the restaurant, I walked elegantly to my car, and hopped in, before speeding out of the place. The incident from earlier keep playing in my head, and I just couldn't help finding everything funny and crazy. I just couldn't help wondering if this is how all humans acts, stealing around, that's the most despicable thing.Speeding through the busy road, with many cars, speeding pass me, while some driving behind me, my eyes caught with something, there were many people, standing in front of something, while murmuring what I don't know. Curiosity came hitting at me, and slowly, I found myself, giving in to it, and slowing down the car, I parked at the corner of the road, and adjusted my sunglass, before stepping out of the car, after which I walked over to the place, maintaining a straight face as usual.Walking my way elegantly to the crowd, my eyes darted to wh
Chapter sevenAuthor POVShe kept running like she was on a marathon race, glancing back almost every seconds, to see the cops, not ready to turn back. She just couldn't afford going to jail, the thought of her mom and siblings flashed through her mind, as a drop of tears, slid down her cheeks, she couldn't imagine herself, spending the rest of her life in jail, the thought of being tagged a thief, keep tearing her heart into pieces, and she regret doing it in the first place.Not conscious of where she was going, she barged in on the roadway, but stopped abruptly, as the sound of a car brake, sounded through her ears, joltting her back to reality, and snapping her head to check where the sound was coming from, her eyes almost popped out of their sockets, as she was welcomed with a black sport car, driving towards her, and she found herself froze on the spot, anticipating death.The car didn't stop the lou
Chapter eightAuthor POVHe leaned his back on the bench lounger, staring up at the sky, which was already getting dark, as he keep drowning in his own thoughts. As much as he want to wrap his head around what exactly he's thinking about, he just found his mind, occupied with so many thoughts, which he can't seem to comprehend where they were all coming from.He sighed softly, as he closed his eyes, and threw his head back, while thinking about nothing. The sound of the footsteps drawing closer, pulled him out of his thought, as a familiar scent filled his nostrils. His eyes darkened, and in the next seconds, he snapped his eyes opened, not tilting his head to look at the person that just dared to disturb his peaceful time."What is it Miguel?" His cold deep voice came on, as he sighed softly, trying to contain the sudden anger, that tried consuming him."Sorry to disturb you Lucifer, bu
Chapter nineLucifer POVWhat am I a bloody vampire for, if I can't compel people? After hypnotizing the receptionist, I commanded her to take me to the man's office, and without further objection, she nodded blankly, and turned around, before leading me to God knows where. After walking for what seemed like forever, she finally stopped in front of a door, and nodded to me, and with that, she turned and left. Now it's game time.Turning my attention to the door, a smirk played at the corner of my lips, which only lasted for a second, as it dissipated into a deep frown. Without knocking, I flung the door opened, and barged in into the office.Stepping into the office, the lady sitting behind a desk, with her whole attention on the desktop placed in front of her, snapped her head to look at me, as soon as I stormed in, and she stood up, looking all angry."What is the meaning of this
Chapter tenLucifer POVTaking one last glance at his corpse, I headed out of his office, and walked elegantly to the large office, where there were so many workers, having all their attentions on their desktop.Stepping into the large office, some of them raised their gaze to look at me, some were having a confused expression on their faces, while some kept staring at me blankly, with so much questions on their faces."My name is Kai Ryder, and I am the new CEO of the company." I announced, while staring at their faces, one after the other, waiting for who want to lose his or her life, by questioning my decision. The atmosphere became tensed, as everyone glanced at themselves, having a confused look on their faces, and as if they know what awaits them, if they dared to question me, they all kept quiet. This is exactly what I want."Since it's Thursday today, I'm going to wait until Mond
