"The stars." "What about them?" he asked, raising a perfect eyebrow, stepping closer. I took a step back with every step he took forward. "They're watching over us." He seemed to think about my words before speaking. "Over us? Or you think they're watching over you." "I know they're watching over us." My back hit the railing as he stood less than a foot away from me. His lips parted, releasing a puff of smoke into my face. The smell made me feel sick, but I didn't show it. "Mon cœur, no one is watching over us. It's just a fragment of your little imagination," he said bitterly, a cold look passing over his face. He dropped his cigarette, snuffing it out with his shoe.

A Vegas Mishap (#2)
I stared at the person sitting on the chair in front of me. That instant I realised that I didn't know this person at all. This was not the person I have been living with. This person just looked like that person. There was nothing same except the looks. The pose, the expression, the emotions in the voice, nothing matched. I couldn't believe that it is the same person. "Doesn't mean anything?" I asked with a low voice as anger filled me. "Yes, it was only a Vegas Mishap." ********************************************************************************** When Ophelia Russo traveled from Italy to the United States, she had no idea what was going to happen to her. Wanting to forget all her worries and the stress of managing a fast growing business, one night she finds herself in a bar in Las Vegas, and in the company of the very handsome businessman, Ethan Welsh, who himself is on a vacation for a break from his womanizing life in Greece. Two hot people, one lively night in Vegas and a few drinks down, what do you expect to happen? No, no. If it was just a one night stand that had happened, it wouldn't have been this bad.
