"I'll take care of the bills, so we can leave," Phoebe said, signaling the waiter to our table.She moved her gaze to me like she knew I was about to say something."Eve, I know you're going to protest but I'm going to say it now, you're not going to stop me 'cause nothing is going to change my mind.""Good, so you know I would oppose.""I'll have to stick with Eve on this one, even though I like a good party." Rebekah agreed."Can you girls stop it already," Pheobe voiced as she slumped in the chair."I'm turning twenty-six with no love life and my life is as boring as fuck, my parents see it fit to always forget their daughter's birthday, and right now all I want to do is dance the night away, and be celebrated, so please, we will only be staying for five minutes, besides I know one close by, just down the road " Pheobe relayed, gulping down some more of the wine."Eve you're sticker for the rules and that's why I'm permitting you to drag me out of there if we spend more than five m
"This can not be happening," Maya said when her eyes landed on the boorish stranger."Maya" He hissed with a smirk."How long has it been, seven, or eight years, you didn't even bother to keep in touch." At that point, Maya was shaking as if she had just seen a monster."Maya""Maya" Rebekah called, but Maya stood rooted to the spot, like she was in a trance, shaking while clenching her first, the music in the background didn't help matters either."Maya" Rebekah called again but with a softer voice, grabbing Maya gently by the hand."Mmm," Maya finally replied, snapping her head to the side to gaze at Rebekah."Is everything okay?" "Of course everything is alright, isn't that right...Maya" The ill-mannered strange cuts in."You shut..." Rebekah let out meeting his gaze but the words stuck to her throat when a body suddenly flew past her, falling to the ground, it was at that moment that we noticed how chaotic the club had become, people were running around like they were being chase
I made my way to the VIP section for my morning rounds.Ugh, all this wouldn't be happening if Pheobe and the girls hadn't put such stupid thoughts in my head.My mind suddenly went back to last night, Maya was not okay after her encounter with the perverted man, her facial expression yesterday said it all, and she seemed almost horrified like she was looking into a nightmare.The fact that she knew the pervert had already been established, and her reaction must have something to do with him, but their connection was a case for me to solve, I've learned to respect people's space and privacy, besides knowing Rebekah I'm sure she's already on the case, I had far more important matters to think of like the book.I didn't want to accept the possibility initially but the circumstances couldn't be wrong, it had been on my mind lately but I wasn't sure I wanted to consider the theory.But what if everything was all staged?Stealing the book was too easy, it felt like it was handed to me on a
She had just finally made herself comfortable in her seat.By the looks of things, it seemed like the conference was soon to begin.Eve moved her gaze around the arena, it was large and accommodating, she thought, then something suddenly caught her eyes.Professor Frank walked into the room with some other doctors who she concluded must be fellows as well.She moved her gaze from one doctor to the next to see if she had seen them before but there weren't many people she could identify.Then her gaze landed on a man with black hair dressed in a white coat just like the others but she was sure she had seen him before but where?Then it all clicked, he was the doctor from the bus who introduced himself as Jason, so he was also a fellow but she didn't remember any doctors in her department with the name Jason.She decided not to dwell on the thought, although the throbbing had lessened it was still there."OMG, who is that? holy crap." Someone suddenly squealed from behind her.Eve who ha
Eve.With time I forgot about his presence, as I felt myself become more comfortable, I listened to the physician speaking and I found myself enjoying the conference.He welcomed the newly employed physicians, emphasized on few rules, and clarify many things associated with the hospital.Then I felt my neck begin to hurt, I had kept it in one place for too long, unconsciously, I turned my head to the side on impulse, and this happened to be the direction of the officials, I pulled back my head, tilting it slightly as I closed my eyes and when I opened them again my eye suddenly landed on him but as if knowing my gaze was on him he turned his head toward my direction and our eyes met. His beautifully silver-grey eyes rested on me and my breath caught.I had only gazed at him for a moment but it seemed that a moment was more than enough time for our gaze to meet, for a second I felt my heart would leap from my chest.I quickly retracted my eyes, feeling my face heat up in embarrassment,
She moved her gaze further upwards, following a pair of long legs, then a pair of powerful arms and broad shoulders, and finally her eye met a pair of beautiful silver-grey eyes, framed by a well-defined face which was expressionless.His gold like blonde hair shined brightly completing his looks.The man standing before her was none other than Alexander Morgan.His silver-grey eyes rest on her, making her feel a little under his gaze, he excluded such a powerful aura that it was just hard not to notice."Are you convenient, sitting on the floor?."He questioned as he stared down at me." Uhm no" She mumbled, cursing inwardly.Suddenly she snapped out of her trance turning her gaze to the side.Of all people to bump into, why him?She searched for her goggles on the floor, and when she finally found them she picked them up, standing up from the ground.Talk about firsthand embarrassment, Oh god, she wished the earth would just open up and swallow her.Suddenly, a masculine but familiar
Maeve."I know this might sound crazy, but I need you to meet him again."I almost choked on the noodles I was eating when these words left Rebekah's lips, and I sent a glare to her."Just hear me out." She began but I cut in, I just wasn't having anything of that."You're joking right?" I questioned, meeting her gaze, although, I wasn't seeing the humor in her words."I'm not, If you'll just let me explain.""Rebekah" I yelled, almost startling her." Can you even hear yourself, you want me to...""He wants to meet you again" Rebekah cuts in.I was speechless for a moment, as many thoughts immediately rushed through my mind."Now, I don't know why, but he wants to meet you, I got a call from a strange number this morning, I didn't know it was him until he introduced himself as Alexander Morgan, the blind date."Why would he want to see me after all the crazy things I had said to him, did he realize I was the woman from the blind date? what if he just wanted to punish me for lying to h
Rebekah," I heard the familiar voice of someone I wasn't expecting to hear when Rebekah opened the door."You're here."Rebekah stepped aside, then my gaze landed on the fellow.Phoebe.She walked into my apartment while carrying a bag in her containing something, but I couldn't identify it."Phoebe," I said in surprise.Just what was she doing here? was it because the director sent her over?"Eve, thank goodness you're okay," She voiced as she walked towards me, giving me a light embrace."Hmm, you looked surprised.""Well I am, I wasn't expecting you." "Well," She started as she collapsed on the sofa" I heard you were sick, so here I am, I also brought recovery gifts"I moved my gaze back to the bag in her hand, wondering what it could be."Eve," She called and I moved my gaze from the bag back to her face."Hmm" I mumbled, meeting her gaze."Thanks for the gift, but you didn't have to... so you heard I was sick, was that from the director.""No" She drawled."I got the news from a nu
