《The Final Project》Chapter 91
Advertisement
We exchange niceties for some time, Ivy feigning comfort, and doing so with ease. She knows every right thing to say, and every wrong thing to avoid. I've never seen her so robotic. So neutral. The only way of knowing how truly terrified she is, is by the way she's squeezing my hand once, twice, three times. I squeeze back in reassurance.
"If you'll excuse us," Ivy's dad eventually says, looking at my parents. "I'd like to talk privately with my daughter." His daughter? He's acting like he has any authority over her. Like after leaving for so long he can barge back into her life, and control it.
Before I can say anything, Ivy gets up, giving me a look of reassurance before leaving the room. And once she does leave the room, I let myself get angry. "Are you guys fucking serious?" I ask.
"Mind your tongue, Aaron." My mom points a demanding finger at me, the same one she used when telling me every idea I had was dumb. Every dream a stupid idea. I'm not afraid of it anymore.
"You could've told me he was coming. A fucking text, or a phone call. What gave you the right to bring him here without her permission?" I'm getting loud, and my restraint crumbling.
"If it weren't for her father, she wouldn't even have a chance with us. Be grateful." My dad's words almost make me laugh.
"You want me to be grateful for the mess you created? That's pathetic, even for you." I get up, and pace.
"I mean I left your fucking house. I went to the college you wanted me to go to. Everything. Every fucking thing I listened to. And now you want to take her away from me too." I shake my head, in disbelief. "The one person..."
"Like I said, we're okay with you being together," my mom interrupts. "If Ivy reconciles with Mr. Blake. Think about it, Aaron. It'd be good for business..." And that's when everything starts to click.

The Colour of Your Heart
Hell’s seven Colours to rule Hell’s seven kingdoms. Red, Green, Grey, Blue, Yellow, White and Black. Satan, the ultimate lord and commander of all seven Kingdoms had made it so. No one remembered where the Colours came from or when they last lived without them. It just became a way of life. The Royal descendants, spawns of Satan, were born with the power to manipulate most Colours. Born with the power to submit most to their will. However, in order to ascend and become true Masters of Hell, they were to conquer all Colours and pass the final Test. No matter the cost. Over the years, Satan himself lost many of his own children to the Test, but it was the iron law. It could not be changed. There were some whispers and predictions, however. One of Satan’s children, together with a rare human soul, would be the end of his reign. Twenty-four-year-old Mara Takeda is a shy young woman who has faced many challenges in her short life.

Fire on Fire
"This is so wrong ..." Emma breathed out against his lips when he pinned her up against the wall."Is it?" Alexander echoed, slipping his hands underneath her large sweater, grazing her lips."She's my friend ..." Emma argued weakly, albeit unwilling to push him off."Don't think about it." He merely replied, starting to nibble on her neck.As his lips nipped down on her sensitive skin, Emma let out a breathless moan and wrapped her arms around his shoulders, so that he could hook her legs around his torso, effectively seizing her in his arms. The walk to his bedroom was short, and before she could say anything, she found herself on his bed, him hovering over her. His every touch was inebriating, the way his lips knew exactly where to go in order for her to lose sight of her moral duties, the way his hands skillfully caressed every inch of her skin, as if savoring it in advance, was driving her insane. And when she met his fiery gaze, Emma knew she was doomed. She had no chance but to surrender to this devil that was tempting her, pushing her towards something that - she was well aware - would be difficult to give up on once set in motion.
