I have been super busy with school rn but I'll try to update more frequently:/

Victoria

"Do you know Kylian"

"Em..." I trail off after hearing the name, I stand there and watch her as she stares with anger and frustration. Her hair is messy and her mascara smudged, out of all the times to bring Kylian up why did she choose her birthday.

Unless something reminded her.

"Is he here?" I ask seriously, she look completely distraught "Émeline please talk"

Instead she just reaches in to her back pocket, her nimble fingers pulling up her phone as she fumbles on the buttons. "What are you doing?" I ask her.

"Getting a ride home, I don't want to be here anymore" she mumbles with a numb expression.

He must be here if the topic on him is causing her to be so worked up, how is Ethan going to react when she asks him the same question.

At one point she is going to find out at it will ruin everything.

Émeline

I leave the girls in the club and speed walk outside, flinging the door open the cold air his me hard as I quickly wrap my arms around myself.

I keep eyes out for my ride and out of the corners I peer for any sight of Kylian, people enter and leave through the doors causing me to look back each time to make sure it isn't Ky.

My hair blows violently through the wind as I start to tap my heels out of anxiousness. It is the type of coldness that reaches into my bones, as if my heart were a door left wide open to the icy wind, slamming only to open again.

What can Kylian possibly be hiding from me?

I never expected this trip to turn out like this at all, everything was going so well and now I had a bad feeling that this all ties in to my dad leaving.

This whole part of my life was going smoothly like one of my books, now the plot twist is as big as ever and I must figure out the meaning behind it all.

I snap out of my thoughts as a black Uber pulls up to the curb of the club, my heels quickly tap on the sidewalk over to the car as I open it and fake a smile to the driver.

"Salut" I greet him before sitting down on the cold leather.

"où allons-nous?" He asks me, He is younger with blonde hair and eyes hidden by sunglasses, even though it is dark outside.
^ where are we heading

I tell him the address of the hotel as he begins to pull away from the club, leaving Victoria there with Rebekah and Samira.

The drive doesn't seem long from me being preoccupied by my racing thoughts, soon enough, the car pulls up to the hotel and let's me off after I pay.

"Merci" I whispers after walking out and shutting the car door, heading to the front doors I enter the warm lobby and begin to check in.

After that I start to head to the penthouse to confront Ethan. I wasn't too mad about the fact that he knows Ky, just upset he didn't tell me about him. He knows that I used to be with Kylian so why didn't he mention him before?

My shoes click down the tiled hotel hallway as I make my way to the penthouse, butterflies rush in to my stomach so hard that I feel they might flutter out.

Taking my card out of my small leather handbag I slide it in the slot, earning a chick of the locks unlocking as I enter the rooms.

The house seems somewhat silent as I enter, looking around at the seemingly empty penthouse. I decide to walk up to Ethan's room, removing my heels and jogging up the stairs to his bedroom door.

"Ethan?" I knock on the door, "Oh! Come in, Em" he responds in a rasp.

I push the door open to see Ethan sitting on his bed, I hesitate for a second looking at him. He sits on the black bed with a dangerously low towel hung around his waist, showing his now very prominent v-line. His hair his wet and hangs long down his tan skin, he looks up at me from his phone "Hey" he smiles.

"Hi..." I trail off "Uhm. Could we talk?" I request, I know he can tell I wasn't in that great of a mod as I wait he the corners of his mouth drop. He nods and pats the bed beside him signalling for me to sit down. Which I do.

The bed dips down as I sit beside him, "You know Kylian" I get to the subject quickly to get rid of the awkwardness "And you never told me even though you knew I used to be with him"

He looks at me for a few seconds without answering, his face unreadable like he was pondering for something to say. "Yeah I knew him" he mutters.

"Knew?"

"It's nothing, Em, okay?" He says standing up and heading to his suitcase, "what do you mean it's nothing, Ethan, I used to date him!"

"Just please forget about it, okay"

"But..." I trail off, "Can we please just not talk about this right now, it's nothing, I'm just tired" He pleads with me.

"Fine" I say, walking out the door and shutting it behind me. It's not that hard to tell me what's wrong and how he knows Kylian and what he won't tell me about it.

My mind hurts from all my thinking, I tend to make up the craziest ideas on what happened and jump to conclusions. But I try to keep myself from doing that right now, we had just started dating.

Haven't we? I guess it just happened, but there was no real asking involved. We love each other, right?

I love him.

I love his dark shark eyes, and I love his bright smile. His long dark hair and when he lets me play with it, I love his hands and I love his lips.

His laugh, and his affection. I could name everything I love about Ethan but now I'm wondering if he could do the same for me.

Ethan

I do love her, I love her more then anything I ever had. But it was supposed to be for one purpose.

I love her green eyes and her brunette hair, her birthmark on her stomach and her laugh. The way her lips pout when she sleeps and her soft smooth skin.

I wasn't supposed to fall in love with Émeline. But if did, and now I'll have to suffer the consequences.

I broke my rules for her.

Ethan

Nine months ago:

"Her names Émeline" He says as he walks back and fourth on the crimson carpet of the club, we were alone in on of the separate gambling rooms.

"I don't know who she is" I say. Confused on what he was doing.

"You will soon" He muses "I loved her, but love had other plans"

"Now I need you to do something for me" He cocks his head to the side. God I hate him.

"If it involves hurting this girl in any way I won't do it" I protest.

"You will do it after finding out what happens if you don't, Ethan" Kylian sneers "I have two girls, Samira and Rebekah. They know Victoria and they will not hesitate to hurt her if you don't do this. They work for me."

My jaw tenses, I stare at Kylian in front of me with hate. "What do you want me to do"

"At some point you will meet her" two men stand beside me holding my hands behind me back "You will make her feel special, act like you love her, play with her wavy brown hair or trace circles on her hands, I don't care.  But you will make her fall in love with you. And then you will see what I do next after that, she needs to pay for what that bitch did to me"

He leans down closer to me, I kneel on the carpet looking up at him with disgust.

"But don't fall in love with her, it will only make it harder when the plan comes together"
