His eyes widened exponentially as my harsh words cut him like one of Grace's knives.
"Wait, hold on." He blinks his eyes repeatedly as if he was in a daze and begins to shake his head to himself.
'Looks like I didn't choose the brightest bulb in the bunch to fall in love with.' I mused to myself silently with an eye roll.

(Second book in the Gilded series)
Being a trio of orphans isn't the worst thing to happen to the DeMarkson sisters, Scarlett, Ophelia, and Bethania.
No. The worst thing to happen to them was losing their entire family in a devastating fire that they were miraculously spared from since they were all conveniently away from the US. And since the tragedy, the girls believed that the fire was an accident.
So what happens when they find out that it was actually on purpose to dispose of their parents, their father in particular? What happens when three teenage boys and one seven-year-old boy show up to live in their house and end up telling them everything?
Can Scarlett get over her newfound hatred? Or will she run someone over with her golden car?
We'll have to see...

"I know we've just met but I want to ask you out on a date." There was a beast like glint in his eyes that bothered a tiny part of me. I clutch on to the garbage bag in my hands while looking around the alley to see if he was saying it to someone else and not me "I'm sorry, do you not understand english?" Offended, I scowl at him "I can!" "Then go out with me" he walks closer towards me. swallowing up the distance between us with his long legs and devilish smirk. Maybe, it was his dominating aura or the fact that his foreign handsome looks got to me more than I wanted to admit but I panicked and suddenly I was swinging the garbage bag over my head. The bottle glass recycles hit his head and I ran to the opposite direction. ---------------------- Amihan moved to a foreign country at the age of 18.

The last time she was here, she left a mess behind. Now she's back, all sharp stares and silk skirts, like nothing ever touched her. But I know better. She wants vengeance. I want her on her knees-preferably for me. We hate each other. That much is true. But hate has a thin line, and we're both really good at crossing it. She's fire. I'm gasoline. And we're about to make this place burn. Rated mature for violence. And smut scenes (𝑪𝒓𝒆𝒅𝒊𝒕𝒔 𝒕𝒐 𝑹𝒊𝒏𝒂 𝒌𝒆𝒏𝒕 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒉𝒆𝒓 𝒄𝒉𝒂𝒓𝒄𝒕𝒆𝒓𝒔 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒔𝒕𝒐𝒓𝒚𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒆 !! 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒐𝒏𝒍𝒚 𝒄𝒉𝒂𝒓𝒄𝒕𝒆𝒓𝒔 𝒊 𝒐𝒘𝒏 𝒂𝒓𝒆 𝑰
