“The best protection any woman can have is courage.”Throughout the day, Adrian couldn’t find it in him to keep his eyes off her. He knew just by looking at her cloudy eyes, what she had done. Her constricted pupils he knew that very it wasn’t long ago he was the same. But it made him wonder what was going on with her. He couldn’t read her easily like others. She was the most confusing person he ever encountered, so difficult to know. She was so powerful that she never depended on anyone. She was a leader of her gang but right now as he saw her acting like this just by the entrance of Greyson was perplexing. What knowledge did he hold that it affected her so much? He wanted to know and he will.When only half-day was over Adrian who was on his break saw Greyson leaving the cafeteria. Natalie didn’t come she was probably avoiding him. Greyson had a victorious smirk settled on his face as he looked around for her as well and found she was not here, knowing her reason very well to avoid

“My heart betrayed me when it fell for you....”Adrian stood in front of his apartment with Natalie in his arms asleep, her head resting on his shoulder. When he had parked her car, he contemplated whether to take her to his apartment or hers. He knew he would have to explain to Isaac, that prick why he was bringing her but if he didn't go to her apartment he wouldn't have to deal with Isaac. But again Isaac would be worried if she gets late. Seeing the situation again he made up his mind to take her to his apartment.Isaac would get worried and suffer, that arrogant prick should actually. He managed to open the door and enter. Hearing his footsteps coming in Leonid turned to him taking his eyes off the show playing in front of him on the TV."You came lat—" he couldn't finish his sentence as he sat up straight looking at the scene in front of him. Adrian had an asleep Natalie in his arms. His jaw was on the floor and he turned to the hypnosis show he was watching earlier. Am I hypn

“I like hearing you laugh and love it if it’s because of me.”Today Natalie, Amanda, and Tyler were in the mall. Shopping.Tyler was being playful with Natalie flirting every second as much as he could while annoying his sister at the same time.Amanda had a permanent scowl on her face. Regretting bringing Tyler with her. But he was good at blackmailing her emotionally.“I swear it god. I will scream and tell the guards that I don’t know who up you are and you’re disturbing us.”“Ouch” Tyler faked an expression as her words hurt him. “Well, then I guess me and Natalie will have to go leave you here alone while we do the rest of the shopping.”He put his arm over her shoulder rushing her with him into the shop as Amanda chased him shouting profanities. Natalie laughed and stopped not wanting to make Amanda more annoyed than she already was.Amanda huffed at Tyler who just pinched her cheeks and quickly kissed her forehead.“I was joking Amanda. Let’s go to a shop, where ever you want to

“This love is out of control....”Natalie and Adrian held their breath, just a few yachts more to cross and they would see them. Adrian looked around to find a spot to hide but there were none. Natalie looked around as well and observed the surroundings. A few adults gazed at the sky as they sat on a bench. A few teenagers taking pictures. Some couples waited to get onto the yacht as they held hands. And she knew what to do. Natalie turned to Adrian who was looking down at the water contemplating jumping in and holding their breath for some time to escape their eyes. But Natalie stepped forward and grabbed his face in her hand, making him look at her with confusion swirling in his orbs but he did not move or try to create any space in between them. He wanted to know what she was thinking or trying to do.Footsteps could be heard coming their way and without wasting any more time Natalie pressed their lips together. She moved her lips against his very softly. Adrian was so shocked fo

“Don’t need you to say the words.....your eyes tell enough.”Natalie was sitting looking around completely uninterested. Today she regretted coming since two of her classes were canceled because the teachers were absent. Plus now she would have to even face him later for their class together after what happened last night. Just wonderful.She never ever actually did get attracted to anyone. She knew about her background and didn’t want to drag anyone into that dangerous world and all the drama because immaturity was not something she looked forward to ever. That basically crossed out everyone but then there is Adrian. Just the only problem was his name, Smirnov mainly. That is what she told herself at least despite knowing fully well her past was also in the way.Since morning Tyler was roaming around with her when Amanda had to go to her classes. Tyler was a bit more touchy today. Even though he was quite subtle about it it didn’t go unnoticed by her. She knew she had to make it clea
