And most parents liked their children to be the first, they naturally despised the latter but for Mr and Mrs Adele-Akinnyi, theirs was the exact opposite. Meet Adele-Akinniyi Luke, good, bad, disobedient, obedient, respectful, disrespectful, adamnet and arrogant. It totally depended on his mood and whoever he was dealing with He was the total mixture of these two categories. Except being a lover of football and a footballer himself;Luke didn't give a care about how the earth revovled around the sun or how the world fared. He was cocky and didn't mind what people thought of him. He was a slight bully and could tease someone till you cried. No one had the courage to stand in his way, the ones with borrowed confidence had their own share of beating. Luke never fell below third in any exam or test and was a straight A student which came as a surprise to many people. He never failed a test or exam even when he missed classes and school many times. He was a fierce competitor and never came second in any competition. With all these, made people scared of him and at the same time, admired him to the ends of the earth. Each time he bullied someone, beat up someone, insulted a teacher, maybe broke some lab items, skipped school which always made him end up in Principal Michaels office. The 45-year old man would just stare at him through the rim of his glasses and sigh heavily before letting him off. Adele-Akinniyi Luke was one of the best student in Preston International College but yet was one student every teacher wanted to get rid off. One way to describe Luke.... He was an.. Oxymoron character.

She was not born a lady, she was made one. She was not born into wealth, she was given it. Laila is a woman of the king, and she fell in love with him, the day she first met him. Whether it was the kindness he'd shown her or the charming face and body he has, the attraction was there from the start. But King Stephan is not one to reciprocate such feelings, as Laila is one of the ten women he has in his castle. If only there was a way they could grow closer...secrets, lies, pain, war...all of which tears people apart, could actually be what brings them together. *** Turning to face him, she sees his lips curling into a smile, making her heart warm and fuzzy. He slowly puts his arm around her, giving her time to refuse. When she doesn't, he pulls her against his chest. Leaning into her he whispers, "You called me by my name, back in the hallway." "I...I apologize-" "Don't...I like it." Laila feels her core clench upon hearing his words. He tilts her chin laying a kiss on her neck. Biting back her moan, she closes her eyes, feeling him suck on her skin. "Mmh!" Stephan feels her arousal placing his lips on hers, his hand traveling down pushing up her dress as he caresses her skin.* Cover by @Sachi_Stark ! ♥
