He owned half of the state,with the casinos and clubs just a small part of them. Relationships disgusted him and one night stands was all he could afford for the flock of girls that followed him. Untouchable ,was what fangirls referred him to him as and second times was unheard of in the dictionary of Victor Kingston. Unless his eyes took interest in a brunette, whose clothes resembled to that of men and etiquettes that of a roadside thug. Her comebacks gave a blow to his inflated ego and her innocence a blow to his manhood. He has never met a girl like her before and he may not in the future. Because she was not just his type,but no man's type either. She was Rose Evans ,an independent and headstrong girl despite the struggles of her life. A girl who didn't needed any man in her life .
I take a sip from the glass of whiskey in my hand, looking down at the crowd.
My elbows resting on the railing as my gaze travels to the sweaty bodies grinding against each other.
Some making out in corners,others dancing without any care of the world.
Bored ,I was not fond of this environment.
But again,this was business.
And my business is my everything.
I was going to turn around to go inside my office,when my grey eyes took notice of something or rather someone
Through the clods of smoke I saw a figure clothed like it was -50 ° inside.
A full sleeve loose shirt,an old knitted sweater ,Khaki pants and what was that?
Sneakers?
Interested ,I places the glass down to stare a little longer.
The person was struggling to make way in the sweaty bodies.
Her hands tapping their shoulders,asking to be excused.
For a second I would have thought the person to be a short timid man,if it wasn't for her bosom.
Not full but still prominent enough to show her gender.
I couldn't see her face clearly. A black cap shielding her eyes from me, tucking her hair inside along with. I could only see her thin lips opening to say sorry again and again.
Taking another sip, I wonder how she got in,the manual clearly says for a dress code for entrance.
The manual I myself have set.
Sneakers and oversize shirts no way a part of them.
My eyes follow her through the crowd,till she stops in front of the private rooms.
Opening it slowly she enters.
This is going to be fun. I thought and I was proved right.
Few minutes later she emerges out, sweating and bothered.
Her hands adjusting her cap, fingers running on her lips and head lowered in embarrassment.
A smile comes on my lips as stares at her longer.
I wanted to scold my men for being so irresponsible.
But scolding and embarrassing this scared sheep further, didn't settle well with me.
Turning around ,I proceeds towards my office.
I still have a lot to do for today, determined to not get distracted again.
Excusing her this time, or rather the last time.
.........................................
I was going through the member register, dissapointed in the irregularity of its maintenance.
The sales figures look fine, but the replenishment of the stock seem suspicious.
Someone was definitely stealing.
Sighing ,I was determined to catch them.
It may sound small, considering how much money I own.
But business is business. And every peny counts in it.
More important is trust and if someone is stealing,they are breaching my trust.
A I never hire people I can't trust.
My thoughts were interrupted when one of the guards appeared at my door.
Bowing in acknowledgement.
"I am sorry for bothering you Mr Kingston. But the security caught a man stealing and he refuses to co-operate."
I look up, straightening my back and giving him my full attention.
My face cold and emotionless as usual.
"Send him in"
He nods and leaves to only return the very next minute.
I hold back my laugh at the person they were referring to as a thief.
Looking at the same black cap girl in front of me.
Her face was still lowered,hands behind her back and weight shifting from one leg to another.
I ask with a raised eyebrow.
"This boy?"
They nod and I again chuckle in my mind. Have I hired a bunch of blind men or what.
Can't they see she is a girl.
But then if I look at her generally,she can pass as a man.
A very fragile thin and undernutritioned young man.
"He is refusing to co-operate. We wanted to check him to see if he has stolen it,but he doesn't let us touch him."
I place one leg over the other. Enjoying this show for a change.
Checking they say, ofcourse she will not let random men touch her at inappropriate places.
I continue to examine her for next few seconds and then nod at my men.
"All of you can leave. I will handle this myself."
They bow their heads and leave. Closing the door behind.
Turning my attention back to the girl ,I see her rubbing her hands in anxiousness.
She has beautiful hands,I must say. With those long slender fingers and unpainted nails,they looked natural and elegant.
Her silence has a reason,I know well.
But I wanted to test her,to play with her and tease her a bit.
"So boy ,what did you steal?"
I ask and she gulps to lower her head further.
Hiding even her lips behind the shade of her cap.
She doesn't reply as expected and I step closer to her.
Sensing me approaching ,she herself steps back from me.
Making me smirk.
"Nothing...I..stole nothing"
She says in a crooked voice, trying to add that fake heaviness in her voice and I move my head in disbelief.
Does she consider me to a fool.
Continuing with the act,I step closer.
"Really? Then why don't you prove it ?"
I say almost cornering her.
Her back hits the wall and her hands clench to fists in front of her.
My next words made a gasp to leave her lips ,as her frame shudders in fear.
"Strip"

"You told them you love me ,huh?" He asks with a raised eyebrows, jaw hardened and eyes narrowed at the shy girl he has hated all his life. She was afraid of his tone,he didn't looked happy with her confession. Was her love going to be unrequited one? "I fuck*** asked you something Ezra! Answer me!" His tone made her gulp,his grip on her arm made her flinch in fear. "Yes" She finally answered looking into his emotionless eyes. Smirking he laughed at her confession,not believing her. "Ezra,do you even know what love is,Oh I almost forgot you are an Orphan,how would you know?" His words were sharp as knife, piercing her healed wounds. She fisted her hands, trying to control her tears. He sighed in frustration running his hand through his hair. "Now mom will not stop till she has made you her daughter in law! Fu**! Why you!"

Hate is all he had for her and those who said hate is the beginning of love,were fools mocking her right now. Gathering the little pride left in her she answers back in a quivering voice. "Yes,I love you. But I don't want anything from you." She says and he stares.Confused at her weird confession. Who says that ? "Nothing you say? Are you playing some brain games girl?" She lowers her eyes and leaves but not before whispering the words that made him feel something after a very long time. "Love is not something to learn ,but to feel Aaron. And I know what I feel.

"You can't reject me!" She said, trying to control her tears. His eyes indifferent ,as he took in her shivering state. Moving closer,he traps her body between the wall and his frame.

"Lower your eyes mate" He said with a hint of warning in his tone. She didn't flinch under his cold fingers coiled around her neck, instead with a smirk on her bruised lips,she looks back at him. Daring to defy him. "Submit!" He growled at her this time, frustrated with her ability to infuriate him to the extent of forcing him to hurt her. "Many have tried mate" The word mate leaving her lips sounded more of a mockery, making his grip on her neck to tighten slightly. "I am not others Vera. I am your mate. Your superior. Submit this instant!" She again smiled, managing to roll her eyes at him. "You can try . But remember,you will never succeed in it" He could end her with just a little more pressure on her neck, having the fate as many others who have dared to defy him,but something in those eyes was stopping him.

My family was on the poverty line and had no way to support me in college. I had to work part-time every day just to make ends meet and afford to get into the university. That was when I met her—the pretty girl in my class that every boy dreamt of asking out. I was well aware she was out of my league. Nevertheless, I mustered all my courage and bravely told her that I had fallen for her. To my surprise, she agreed to be my girlfriend. With the sweetest smile I had ever seen, she told me that she wanted my first gift for her to be the latest and top-of-the-line iPhone. I worked like a dog and even did my classmates’ laundry to save up. My hard work eventually paid off after a month. I finally got to buy what she wanted. But as I was wrapping my gift, I saw her in the dressing room, making out with the captain of the basketball team. She then heartlessly made fun of my inadequacy and made a fool out of me. To make things worse, the guy whom she cheated on me with even punched me in the face. Desperation washed over me, but there was nothing I could do but lie on the floor as they trampled on my feelings. But then, my father called me out of the blue, and my life turned upside down. It turned out that I was a billionaire's son.

Belinda thought after divorce, they would part ways for good - he could live his life on his own terms, while she could indulge in the rest of hers. However, fate had other plans in store. "My darling, I was wrong. Would you please come back to me?" The man, whom she once loved deeply, lowered his once proud head humbly. "I beg you to return to me." Belinda coldly pushed away the bouquet of flowers he had offered her and coolly replied, "It's too late. The bridge has been burned, and the ashes have long since scattered to the wind!"
"You're mine, little puppy," Kylan growled against my neck. A soft gasp escaped my lips as his lips brushed my skin. My mind screamed at me to push him away-the Lycan Prince who had humiliated me again and again, but my body betrayed me, leaning into him before I could stop myself. He pressed his lips against mine, and his kiss grew more aggressive, more possessive as I felt my legs weaken. What was I doing? In a split-second, I pulled away and slapped him hard across the face. Kylan's eyes darkened, but the smirk on his lips exposed his amusement. "You and I both know we can't fight this, Violet," he said, gripping my wrist. "You're my mate." "And yet you don't want me," I replied. "You told me you were ashamed of me, that l'd never be your queen, that you'd never love me. So please, accept my rejection and let me go." "Never," he whispered, his grip tightening as he pulled me closer. "Soon enough, you'll be begging for me. and when you do-I'll use you as I see fit and then I'll reject you."
