The King and Queen of New York City were pre-destined.
They were never meant to be.

Ella Ashleigh was Queen. She was somewhat used to the luxury where everything fell in her favour. One who was never jealous, threatened, nor insecure, suddenly d...
ELLA WAS HALF asleep as he opened the door. He harshly gripped on her jaw, waking her right up. She had fallen asleep during the ride back to his place. Though in her defence, it was nearing four am — the time where normal individuals would be dead asleep.
"We here." He informed dryly.
She fixed her posture. "At your house?"
"Nah, the fucking circus."
Cap stepped away from her car door and proceed to walk up his garage stairs that led to the interior of his house.
She removed her seat belt and exited his sports car. Following him up the same stairs he took, she was immediately met with a grey and white modern living room.
Ella could see that the white walls were bare and the grey decor looked brand new. Cap didn't have any photos or frames, and the only decoration he had other than furniture was a pot plant sitting on the floor beside the kitchen counter that looked beyond dehydrated.
Poor plant.
She hypothesised that he had just moved in. Her eyes scanned over the entire room again and were met with his mugging figure leaning against the wall on the other end.
"You shower and I'mma go get us sum food. Whatchu want?"
"Pardon?"
"Pardon?" he mocked. "Whatchu want to eat."
"A garden salad; lettuce, tomatoes, olives, feta cheese, cucumber, no onion. With balsamic vinegar, please."
Cap nodded as if he was just nodding for the sake of it, and turned to go back to the garage, where his car was parked. Ella realised she didn't know where the bathroom and called out for him, "Wait."
He stilled and twisted his head to see her. "What?"
"Where's the bathroom?"
"Second door on the right," he answered, and with that continued walking away.
Ella nodded walked into the hallway breaking off from the living room. Opening the second door on the right as instructed, she was met with a clean bathroom.
She locked the door and stripped her designer pyjamas. Discarding her panties, she retrieved her mobile phone that was tucked in her bralette and removed the bra. Stepping out of her house heels, she moved into the shower, staying under the hot water for what seemed like a good thirty minutes.

Wearing just a towel, she nudged her head outside the bathroom. Seeing Cap wasn't anywhere outside in the hallway, she tightened her towel around her body and walked cautiously to find him.
