“What do pretty girls like?Do you have any idea, Nora?”Nora blinked twice, not quite sure how to answer this question. It’s I that she didn’t know what to say. It's just the way it was asked and who was asking; it just, all of a sudden, made it hard to reply.“Nora?”“They like Jewelry, diamonds are a girl’s best friend. Clothes, fashionable or casual, anyone goes. They love trips to beautiful places with captivating scenery and good food.”“Huh.” Nicholas stroked his chin. “Natalie is the shopping type, but I don’t know about accessories. When she was attacked, I got her a change for clothes. I’m not too sure I made the best choices but now that her birthday is in a few days, I will have to up my game. I can’t buy her what she won’t be able to use. I thought of taking her shopping but aren’t birthday gifts supposed to be surprises? Making her buy her one birthday gift, doesn’t that ruin the whole essence of the surprise”Nora rolled her eyes. He is thinking this much because of som

Natalie hurriedly got down from the stairs, making her way through the parking lot, trying to find Nicholas. She messed up big time. She couldn’t decide on which accessories and which shoes and she ended up losing so much timeWell she felt she lost so much time. She was practically praying Nicholas did not leave because he was tired of waiting. . Jessica never came upstairs, so maybe she was helping her make Nicholas wait without feeling that time was passing.She scanned the entire parking lot. She couldn’t spot Nicholas.“Oh heavens No.” she gasped, her heart sinking.Maybe he is in his car and not standing around. She walked further into the lot, darting her eye from car to car. That’s when she spotted Jessica. She was leaning against a car and some man was holding her hand.Natalie’s smile vanished.‘I told her to help keep Nicholas here and what she does is go hit on a guy. Uhh, how could she do this!’ She screamed in her head, storming towards Jessica.”She didn’t bother to wa

“Brian.. stop. You are choking me.” She gasped, struggling to find oxygen..The man stared so plainly at her, unfazed by her torment. Somehow he seemed to be enjoying it.“I will Natalie but you have to tell me you miss me. Tell me I’ve always been on your mind. Tell me I occupy your days and nights, every single time..”She trembled, fighting back the rest that burned her eyes. He was sick. Angelo has always been messed up in the head. She thought she had ditched him after she flew out of the states to be with her sister when she hadn’t gotten married. How the hell did they meet again, what kind of cursed day is today turning out to be.“Angelo…don’t… Please don’t do this. You are hurting me.”He chuckled immediately. “That’s the idea, Natalie. Since you can never listen to me until I touch you like this then let’s keep playing the game.” He sounded sinister, you could notice it each time he spoke.Natalie felt her breath grow thinner and thinner. At this rate, she was going to die h

A young boy ran up the stairs as fast as he could, making his way to the very last room in the top of the Delgado castle in the middle of nowhere. Well it’s so far from everything there that It seems to be in the middle of nowhere. The boy halted at the passageway, catching his breath before he began to gracefully make his way to the study at the extreme. The door opened a little. Candle lights flickering and illuminating the passageway.The boy knocked. “Sir Lord Enchanto Benedict Delgado, there is a man here looking for you. He says his name is Nicholas Belford . He seems angry. I think his spirit is foul, he may infest these sacred place."“Let him in. I have been dying to meet him in person anyways. Even if he doesn’t feel the same way about me.”“Yes Sir.” The boy bowed and walked back as quietly as he came. Nicholas sat in the fancy reception aka tea room of this 1900 Castle. As much as he would love to admire the luxury and the designs, he had business to attend to and honestl

They walked down calmly. With the seduction in Nora’s every sway and the condescending aura following Nicholas it was only a matter of seconds before the entire den knew they were here.He was banking on it. It’s boring when the prey doesn’t know it’s been chased. He wanted the Iron vultures to be prepared for him.As they made a turn into the next road, members of the Iron vultures began to creep out from the cracks, hovering around them and covering the way out. Surprisingly, Nicholas was unfazed by everything they did. He continued making his way towards the casino until he couldn’t go any further. The Iron vultures had circled them and there was no way they could move on.Nicholas stopped, looking around to see if he could recognize any one of them. It seems the folks he met last time were not here. At least that’s what he thought until someone cleared his throat disgustingly, the crowd clearing out for him.Immediately he stepped out, he spat on Nicholas’ shoe. Nora reached for
