Twists and Turns. Call the cops
The tears on her face kept rolling down as she looked at her grandmother's lifeless body on the old, shaky bed."Grandma?"She still called out hoping she'd get a response from the dead woman. "Please don't go. You're all I have. Grandma please say something"Her voice became urgent as she held the woman's old, wrinkly, white hand. Then she rested her head on the woman's belly as she always did after being tortuted by the Devanes. But the tears didn't stop, not even for a second. She cried silently."Rory" A soft voice called out. She felt a hand on her shoulders. She raised her head up to see Clarisse staring at her with so many emotions in her black eyes. Nervousness and anguish were the most prominent emotions.She understood why she'd feel anguish, but nervous?"Rory am so sorry."She said."It's not your fault Nana Clarisse"Rory said while she stood up to be at eye length with Clarisse. For a woman in her late fifties, she was tall but she looked thin and had very haggard, weak,
Twists and Turns. Her Daniel
"Rory, you're here?"Kay was the first to speak."Where else am I suppose to be?"She asked carelessly.Anna saw Rory and she was stunned. She was too beautiful for words to describe. She stared at her, taking in all her perfect features. The bluest eyes, pink, full lips that someone might mistake as red, the small heartshaped nose, round face, long midnight black hair and white skin, that was a little bit tanned. Rory felt someone's gaze on her and her eyes fell on Anna. Their eyes locked and only then did she realize what she was doing; she was shamelessly gawking Rory and it caught the attention of the whole class. So unprincess like! Anna smiled nervously at Rory and the latter nodded at her.Rory didn't care but was just curious about her identity. However, she knew someone would tell her, so she made her way to her seat after saying 'good morning' to Miss Agatha."Rory where were you? You were almost late"Blaire couldn't help but nag her. Punctuality carried 10 points in their gr

How dare they speak of her husband that way? Cold blooded? Ruthless? Heartless? He was only cold to outsiders. These people had no idea of what they were saying."Have you met Daniel Froster before?" She asked with slightly narrowed eyes and the air around them became chilly."No we've not, but the rumors...""What are rumors? They are unproven information. You haven't met him before, yet you claim to know so much about him, isn't it?" She said it so coldly that it made them shiver."Rory don't take it to heart. We were just saying what we heard"Terrence said trying to smoothen the situation."Is that so? Cold? Ruthless? Cold blooded? Add murder to the list and it would become a joke" Rory was furious. She won't let anyone speak ill of her husband,even if the people in question were her friends.They all went silent. The question was: "Why did Rory become so angry?""What was her relationship with Daniel Froster?""So..." Anna's eyes scanned everyone seated on the table and said with a

Rory stood up, slowly. She turned to Lucas and told him to be good. When she stood up, she had the aura of an empress making everyone in the cafeteria fall silent. She took unhurried strides towards Samantha and stopped when she was just a step away from her.“Samantha, do you have a thing for asking rhetorical questions?” Rory asked with a meaningful smile. Her voice was not loud but it was clear enough for everyone to hear because of how quiet the place was.The smart people understood what she implied. Did it mean Samantha had the answers and she was asking these questions to stir up trouble? Everyone’s gaze on Samantha became strange.However Rory wasn't satisfied with the first blow, she continued by asking, “Or do you have selective amnesia and only recall some certain events?” Why should she stop there? Samantha wasn't kind to her, so why should she be polite? The game has just begun. What the Devane family stole from her, she’d take it back with interest. She couldn't help

Her eyes fluttered open and that alone caused her to groan in pain. Her whole body was so sore that she was sure that standing up would kill her. However, she knew that if she didn’t stand up, Mrs Devane would increase the level of difficulty she was already facing.She stood up from the ‘bed’. She snickered. Was this even a bed? It was a bed alright; a bed made of iron and a worn out, which she was certain was for a baby was placed on it. This was her life.She stretched and bent her back backward and forward because of how stiff it was. She couldn’t help but scan the room. The room was very small and only had space for a bed. The door was close to the right-hand side of the bed so the only free space was on the other side of the bed. The walls weren’t painted and looked awful. Then the smell; the smell wasn’t any better. There was only one window, thankfully. The rain kept pouring with no intention to stopHer life was hard and she could only blame her father. If he had cared about h
Twists and Turns. Nana Clarisse
One month ago.“I’m thinking about opening a gallery,” Rory said to Daniel.Daniel was dressing for work, while Rory was resting in bed. She still wasn’t allowed to move around because of the incident.“That is very good, Koala. But I think you should hold on for a little bit longer” Daniel responded, while buttoning up his shirt.“Why?” She got off bed and walked up to Daniel to help him knot his tie, “I already have a large following and enough money to invest in a place. Plus I’m already speaking to Oliver”. “I’m not saying you don’t”. He grabbed her by the waist, “And I think you should still be in bed, resting”“But I’m bored” She said dramatically and rested her head on his chest. Daniel chuckled.“It’s not funny” She pushed him away about to runaway, but Daniel didn’t allow her to escape. He was faster and tightened his grip on her waist.“Where do you think you’re going? Want to run away from your Prince, Aurora?” He smirked.“My Prince was named Phillip, not Daniel, so…..” S
Twists and Turns. Phase 2. Devane Banquet
The present.The dinner with Daniel’s family went so well, that Aunt Star and everyone else urged her to come back.At some point, Aunt Star called Rory aside.“Thank you Rory” Aunt Star’s eyes were sincere. She was genuinely thanking her.“For what?” Rory’s eyebrows furrowed in confusion.“For everything. For Daniel. He…..” She sighed.“He?”“He's just so happy. Happier than he has ever been in years”“You’re welcome, but I honestly do not know what I did” Rory let out a light chuckle.“You have no idea” Aunt Star was enlightened. She had no idea and looked at Daniel, who was across the room feeling bored out of his mind without his wife.Rory followed her line of sight and smiled at Daniel, whose face lit up like a kid at Christmas when he saw his wife giving him attention.“I've heard the rumors about how cold he is to outsiders”“He was cold, only to outsiders at first, but after the incident…..” She trailed off again.“What incident?”Aunt Star wanted to say something else, howev

However, this new year I went through the book and discovered a lot of issues with the book. The book is by no means a reflection of my writing style.
