Harper walked into the hotel's restaurant, she walked to the table that was reserved for them. She spotted him already seated with just focus completely on his phone. He wore a dark blue dress shirt with black pants, and his hair was tousled but looked flawless. She cleared her throat as she finally reached him, "Skye? "He looked up and finally noticed her, then put his phone away, "Yes, that's me." He smiled charmingly at her and held out his hand for her.She was about to shake it but he kissed the back of it instead, "Nice to meet you again." He said."Likewise," She then motioned to the table, "Shall we?""Of course," He pulled out a chair for her and she thanked him before sitting down. An elegant-looking waiter approached them, "Good evening, I hope you're having a lovely evening," He brightly smiled, "What can I get you?"Skye waited for Harper to order first, she skimmed through the menu then finally settled on something, "I'll have the Scandinavia steak and potatoes."The
It was Saturday and as promised Scar went to Seb's house so that she could teach him how to make the cupcakes. Despite it being her second visit, she was still in awe of the whole place. Scar took her time admiring every inch of the surroundings until she reached the door. Before she could knock, it opened by itself revealing Seb, he looked like he had just come from taking a shower and his hair was dripping wet. He wore a black T-shirt and gray sweatpants which made him look even more alluring. A smirk crept on his face and he spoke, "Did your mother not tell you that staring is bad manners?""Did your mother not teach you that being this good-looking is a crime?" She countered. He let out a chuckle, "I didn't know that you thought that about me." Seb leaned in, staring into her eyes. "Now you do, though I think you already knew that," Scar said to him. Seb smiled innocently and ushered her in, "Please, come on into my humble home."She grinned at his statement, "How modest of
Scar didn't expect to see Skye at her doorstep, holding flowers and a box of what seemed to be chocolates. They both stayed in an uncomfortable silence as Scar processed everything, she didn't know what to say after cutting him off without any explanation.Skye took a few steps toward her until he was in front of her. "Hi Scarlett, I came here because I miss you and wanted to talk to you."His eyes appeared so sad and bleak that it broke her heart, he swallowed and then continued. "I don't know what I did wrong, or how I offended you but I'm deeply sorry, please Scar forgive me." Scar felt a pang in her heart, he was apologizing for something he didn't even do, it was heart-wrenching, she should have been the one saying sorry not him. "Please Sca—," She cut him off before he could finish. "Skye stop, why are you apologizing? It's not your fault at all." Her voice was filled with so much emotion. "But—""But nothing, I just had a lot of things going on lately, I'm so sorry." Scar
A Week flew by since the friends rekindled their friendship, in this week they had a lot of fun, they caught up on lost time, equally, she spent quality time with Seb and the two enjoyed each other's company though she didn't tell him that she and Skye had begun speaking again. Every time she wanted to tell him, she always decided against it. Seb had gone out of town for a while and couldn't take Scar with him on the pretense of it not being that important because it was related to the Mafia stuff. Skye took up this opportunity to hang out with Scar and arranged a dinner at a hotel called the Imperial Hotel. He wanted to make Scar feel special so he booked the whole restaurant, it was expensive but worth it. Skye picked up Scar from her place after briefly talking to Natalie. He couldn't help but let his gaze linger on her, she looked truly beautiful, it sort of took his breath away just glancing at her.They eventually arrived at the Imperial Hotel, it was a large three-story glas
Scar abruptly turned and saw a raging Seb standing there with an envelope in his hands. He marched towards them with quick strides and reached them within seconds. He immediately went to Skye and punched him in the gut then the face breaking his lip. Skye staggered back and almost fell but held his ground. Seb was about to attack him again but Scar got in the way, "Please, don't." He stepped back as he asked, "I get it, you don't want me to hurt your lover, I fully understand it." "What? that's not how it is, let me explain, this is just some misunderstanding." Scar said as she wanted to reach out to him but feared that he'd push her away. A bitter laugh escaped his lips, "Explain what? Your little lies, c'mon Scarlett I'm not a five years old, I saw you both sucking each other's faces, what is there to explain?” He paused, racking a hand through his hair in frustration, "When I got this, I didn't want to believe it. I thought it was a lie and everything was edited." He was referr
Nat was shocked when she heard sobs immediately after the door closed. She rose from the kitchen where she was preparing a snack for herself and headed straight for the living room.What she saw mortified her, Scar was crouched on the floor, hugging her knees as tears streamed down her face. Nat got concerned and rushed to her friend hugging her, "Scarlett, what's wrong? What happened?" Her voice almost cracked. Scarlett sobbed even more, she just wanted the pain to go away. Natalie understood that it wasn't the perfect time to talk so she just sat there hugging her friend. They stayed like that for what felt like hours until Scarlett calmed down. Natalie helped her get up and then silently led her to her room, she proceeded to give her some water to drink. After Scarlett drank the water, she calmed down a bit and felt lighter. Her eyes were puffy and her nose rosy, she sniffed and then began explaining what. Happens to Nat knowing she'd like to know. The whole time Nat quiet
"Seb, you're here?" Scarlett was stunned, she didn't think he wanted to see her but why was he vouching for Skye? Hours Ago. Skye got into his car and drove to Scar's place. Immediately he reached her place, he got out of the car and headed to the front door. Skye was about to ring the doorbell when he heard sobbing, Scarlett was crying, and it was his fault. He couldn't bring himself to ring the bell so he went back to his car, he tried calling Harper but she wasn't picking up, which caused him to throw his phone in frustration. He didn't know what to do. He pulled his hair wondering how he was going to fix all this Harper played him well, she cheated him but how was he going to fix it all, Scar was broken and didn't want to talk to her, and Seb—, 'Wait I can try talk to him even if I end up getting a beating it's alright.'He made up his mind and drove to Seb's mansion, hoping he'd be there. After reaching the guards asked him why he wanted and he explained that he was there to s
They all sat on the couch and Scar stared at Skye, impatiently waiting for his explanation. After a few minutes, he began explaining every little detail of what he knew, Scar was astonished at the information, she remembered Seb telling her that Harper was dangerous but never in her wildest dreams did she ever think that she'd stoop to such a level. "That lady is messed up in the head. " Nat commented after everyone went silent, "But I'm wondering about one thing, why are the both of you together? Last I checked Seb isn't your biggest fan.""We had a little talk and decided to join hands from there. " Skye elaborated. "Okay, understood," Nat replied after finally understanding the situation."So, now what?" Scarlett asked, she hadn't uttered a single word since he started talking. "We make a plan that will permanently destroy her," Seb spoke up, causing Scar and Natalie to glance at him wondering what the two guys were planning. "Okay, so what's this plan of yours?" Scar raised a
