The party was long over but I can't even point out what exactly I'm feeling right now. Her face registered in my head again and I pursed my lips in disbelief.  I consumed the remaining liquor on my glass in one gulp. 'What will I do to you now, Kiara Anderson?'

"Bravo! Nathaniel! Bravo!" I heaved an exhausted sigh upon hearing her barge in my pad mocking me.

"What do you want?" I inquired with the coldest tone I can muster. 'I've had enough for the night.'

"Well...I must say... You put on a great show! I almost shed a tear... Most especially the kneeling part." I spun around and a pair of familiar blue-green orbs met mine. Her voice full of sarcasm and I don't find it a bit entertaining.

"Why? You don't like it?" I matched her accusing stare with a sardonic smile.

"Of course not Nate. I actually find it entertaining... You're being so worked up with Anderson yet her obliviousness is on a different level! Amazing!" She clapped her hands annoyingly.

"I don't know what you're talking about, Tracy." I said dismissively. But instead of being discouraged, she just shrugged it off and settled on my couch.

"Is Stacy a part of these charades you're playing?" I was appalled by her indifference of my attitude towards her and just went on with her blabbering. 'I must say, she got the nerve'

"Hmm. You came barging in my personal space for I don't know how, accusing me of something repulsive—Must I ask what you opt to get from this stunt you're putting up? Should I let you in a little secret?" I smirked triumphantly upon seeing Tracy sat up straight crossing her legs in the process. 'You're too shallow to be her sister.'

"I don't want you getting the wrong idea, Nathaniel. I dislike meddling with other people's business but this also concerns me." She crossed her arms and acted cool but I knew better.

"Don't make me laugh Tracy. I know 'who' you are after. It's not something to do with me nor Stacy and most definitely not Kiara." I made sure to emphasize the word 'who' and I grinned in satisfaction as I saw her stiffened.

"Cat got your tongue, eh?" I may look shallow but I have thought everything thoroughly before I act and I will never give in to this B*tch. She's not someone who could mess with my perfectly structured plans.

"W-what are you talking about?" She shifted her gaze away from me obviously trying to avoid eye contact. I poured another round of brandy on my glass and gulped it down in one shot. I can feel her anxiety but she was at fault here. I can't just let this go, never until it's time.

"You can get your way to Andrew now, you know? Kiara being so into me makes Andrew lonely." She gaped at my bold response. Tracy was so transparent that I can see her chagrin too well. I know that she's been into Andrew ever since I introduced them to each other way back 9th Grade.

"I can have him anytime if I want to, I don't need you lecturing me." She hissed and I just shrugged at her response. She may seem delicate, but as far as I know, she can be more vicious than Stacy has ever been. Her mere presence screams 'danger' and I don't want to be involved with her but it won't hurt to tell her a tale or two.

I strode the gap between us and settled on the couch in front of her. She's been glaring at me the whole time but I didn't falter. "I'll take back Stacy." I looked at her intently and from where I am sitting, I can see that she was not surprised at all. 'Am I that readable? Well as long as Kiara's not suspecting, I don't care' My lips pursed with the thought.

"Apparently, I've got that figured that's why I'm here, right?" Her statement is reeking with sarcasm.

"Well, I can't go dive into details now, can I? I don't want anyone ruining my plans but I'll assure you that you can also have what you want in the process... All you have to do is get close to Kiara. How about that?" Tracy smiled wickedly, it sends shiver down my spine but I like it.

"I heard Penelope Greene will be leaving the country soon after graduation. Maybe I could start the fun by then?" She stood up and went to my mini bar and get herself a glass of brandy and took a sip waiting for my response.

"Suit yourself." I smirked at her and then I stood up and made my way to my room not looking at Tracy who's still engrossed with drinking the whole bottle of brandy nor bidding her goodbye. 'She can show herself her way out like she did when coming in, I don't care.'

As soon as I got into my room, I began to strip myself all the way to my bathroom. I let the cold water damp on my nakedness while my mind drifted to a certain memory, 'Stacy'

It's true that Stacy left and dumped me after being bribed by my parents. I was so infuriated that I immediately went to Dad and confront him about it. He told me that our conglomerate is currently in the brink of bankruptcy which I didn't know could be possible.

Millions are being stolen from the company's account and upon investigating, it seems like it was done by none other than the Chief-Financial-Officer of our company, Brian Simons who happens to be Stacy's uncle. They all jumped into the conclusion that all of the Simons' have something to do about it, conspiring to juice us millions of dollars and with the Simons' entertaining company being glorious at the same time as our downfall, they resent them as deceitful.

I may also jump on the same conclusion if I was not dating Stacy but it's different. I know them better than anyone. But even so... they still rushed into a decision of engaging me to Kiara in exchange of their help to get back what's lost from us. It's ridiculous! But that's not all to these... There are more reason for me to take on revenge.

I will make sure that the Anderson's will fall into the pits of hell.
