With the coat still hanging in his hand, Levian watched with a complicated expression as the gate closed. For the first time ever in his life, he was at a loss for words with a certain someone.“Good night,” Sherry managed to speak in one breath before closing the gate right at his face.When the gate was almost closed, Sherry turned around and peeked at the man on the road. He had not moved from his place- the coat still hung in his hands, lightly swaying in the cold wind. Her sight fell on his well-defined face that was illuminated by the street lamps. “Shit!” She remembered what she had done in the heat of the moment a few minutes ago. She could still feel the gentle touch of her lips on his! The taste was still lingering in her memory- fresh and sweet.BANG!The gate shut with a loud sound- clearly representing her flustered state. “Bold and lewd one moment, shy and innocent the next,” Levian summarized in his head. Shaking his head, he put the coat around his shoulder. He had
After hearing the small conversation of Roy with that man, and after looking at the GPS, Levian realized the gravity of the situation.“The Zacob family's Southern Port...” Levian stared at the call as he gnashed his teeth. His men were on the enemy turf!***It was around midnight. The sound of the ship departing from the port echoed in the night along with the sound of waves crashing against each other. The sea was dark, but with the cargo in the ship emitting light, it looked as if a party was happening in the middle of the sea.Watching the sea depart, a man sipped on a cup of coffee- pure black coffee without sugar. “Bitter,” he exclaimed as he scrunched his nose. However, he took another sip- as if he was addicted to that bitter taste. The man was tall- his height was around 6 ft and 3 inches. Under the formal coat, his tattooed muscles were bulging. His short hair was oily but combed back elegantly nevertheless. While his face had many scars, they did not escape from the tatt
As the first snap of his finger reverberated in the air, it was filled with sounds of gun cocking as Malfoy’s subordinates pulled their trigger- ready to shoot at one word from their boss. The silent night on the seaside was now filled with men, trying to sort out a simple problem. "Raise your hand!"Roy immediately stopped moving and stood his ground, with his hands raised in the air. Following his suite, the remaining three men who had come with him did the same. They could not bear the consequences of acting otherwise in this situation.“What’s the meaning of this?” Roy continued his act of a ‘client’ who had come there on a business with Malfoy. “Is this how the great Zacon family treats its esteemed guest?”He scrunched his entire face as he looked at the gun that was being pointed at him.Since Malfoy had not done anything to him yet, Roy figured that the man had no idea as to why they had come there. As there was a possibility that he had not been seen through yet, he wanted t
Sherry The gate locked, blocking the view of Levian from her eyes. “Why did I do that? Damn!” Sherry fisted the air above her- in an attempt to fight the embarrassment she was facing for everything she had done in the past few hours. Her mind wandered back to how she had perversely grabbed Levian’s butt and even dared to act spoilt when he confronted her about it. Thinking back about it, she really did look like a kid. “Can’t cry over the spilled milk, now can I?” Sherry sighed as she walked up the stairs. Since her room was on the third floor, she did not take the elevator, or rather she did not want to take the elevator that particular night. With various thoughts still running amok in her mind, she reached her room. Looking at the familiar door, a smile appeared on her face. There was a keypad on the door. She entered the passcode to her room. With a clicking sound, the door was unlocked. “Home, sweet home!” She pushed the door and entered the room. After making sure the
The curtains in the room were still closed. However, the sunlight managed to peer inside the room through the small gaps in between the curtains fold. It indicated the start of a new sunny day-probably the one filled with joy and bliss.However, the temperature inside the room was chilling- as if it could snow at any moment. On one side of the room, Sherry stood against the wall. With her arms crossed and her face filled with confusion, she stared at the man who was ‘shamelessly’ making himself comfortable on her fluffy couch.“What are you glaring at?” Levian snorted as he pressed a pack of ice on his forehead.“I-” Sherry wanted to say something but she could not make out what she wanted to say. She was at a loss of words. Considering what she had just gone through, it was no surprise.Sherry had wanted to rest for a bit on the couch, however, without her knowledge she had fallen asleep on the couch the whole night. When the door bell of her apartment rang, she was still under the i
Once inside the bedroom, Sherry quickly packed up her bag. She did not have that many clothes that she needed to pack. After making sure she had kept everything she needed inside her bag, she grabbed a towel and ran inside the washroom.Meanwhile, Levian who was standing outside looked at the closed door of the bedroom. He only moved from his place when he heard the sound of the washroom door locking.“I will be waiting for you my wifey~” Levian flirted in a sweet and calm tone, however, the relaxed expression on his face suddenly tensed.The change was so sudden that one could easily pinpoint the number of muscles that he just contracted on his face if they tried. A deep crease formed in between his brows as he turned away from the door. With a complicated expression on his face, he exited the room in larger strides. The phone in his pocket rang as soon as he was out of the door.Levian pulled out his phone and looked at the caller id. “What a timing…” his voice trailed off as he s
“I guess you can not have everything in one single person,” Sherry sighed as she wiped her hair with the towel. “No wonder people say no one is perfect.”Sherry opened her mouth to continue her monologue but her eyes had somehow gained a new alertness to it.Something was wrong inside her home!Her ears twitched slightly as she focused her attention on the chillingly stagnant silence inside her house.She was not a trained professional or anything of that sort, but as a doctor, she had trained herself to notice even the slightest change in her surrounding. She did not want to risk the life of any patient in any of her surgery, hence, she could pick up the fluctuations in her patient’s vitals even before anyone could notice it. It had influenced her daily life too.Although it was not loud enough, Sherry could pick up the sound of suppressed footsteps. ‘Didn’t that man say he was going to wait for me in the parking lot?’Sherry’s eyes had a bright and sharp glow to them. It was as if
Although Levian spent most of his time indoors working, he had an athletic physique. He reached Sherry’s floor in no time from the parking lot.The door that he had locked behind him was ajar. Levian felt his heart reach his throat while his steps continued to hasten. Just as he had reached the door, he heard the painful howl of a man…the origin of the sound- it came from inside Sherry’s room! “Sherry!” Her name involuntarily left his mouth. Every muscle in his body was tensed- anxiety piling inside him like snowfall on the mid-december night. Please be alright. That was all he had in his mind as he dashed towards the open door, however, the sight that met him left him bewildered. What met his eyes was the sweet-looking girl slumped next to a bulky figure... the black outfit was the same one that he had seen on the man who bumped into him in the elevator. ‘Is she hurt?’ A sense of loss clouded his heart.Levian felt an uncontrollable rage surging inside his heart. The rage, ho
