Destiny

Err.. freedom?

Srivi's POV :

He's opening his shirt buttons. Terror settled inside me.

"please me". When these words left his mouth, my eyes went wide.

" What... ?" I mouthed. He moved away from me and placed himself on the couch.

"Don't worry... I'm not asking you to do what you are thinking. You are no way near to ask your apologies, so make something to please me".He made the point clear, soon terror substituted by relief.

"you may leave... Unless you have some intention to..." he gazed at his side beside the bed. I ran out of the room as soon as possible. I stopped at the door. I started thinking about what to make... Done I'm gonna bake, I thought to myself.

I went to my room, but how can I bake... I don't have my phone with me so that I can surf. Think Sri... Think. Something got into my brain. Uff...thanks to Kri, she once forced me to see and made me help her in baking a choco lava cake.

I made my way to the kitchen. Tied my hair into a bun. When I went down I got greeted by Alec. I don't know why but I found him good, Comparing to the other two. He has a bubbly nature, I smiled and went into the kitchen.

Alec came behind me "what are you doing?" he asked, while I was standing there aimlessly without knowing where to start.

" umm... I'm just trying to bake" said with a smile.

"do you mind if I join? " he tried not to sound enthusiastic.

" why would I? "I smiled with excitement.

" Let's do this," I said.

He smiled and saluted "yes... Mam". we both laughed and started mixing all the ingredients. The whole time was fun with Alex... We were playing with flour and eating the chocolate, Laughing like mad. And now it's all ready. We both set it inside the oven.

David's POV :

My sleep was disturbed when a heavenly smell hit my nose. I'm still feeling sleepy. Flashes of my childhood are pictured in front of me. "wow, mama you are making my fav cake... It smells yummy" I saw a boy running around the kitchen. Excitement can be clearly seen in his eyes.

"maa," I woke up all sweating. What just happened? I thought to myself. I washed my face and got down to the living room. The heavenly smell engulfed me. When I was about to find out what was the smell. I heard laughs and giggles.

That's alec and her. She looks cheerful, she got flour all over her face... Her big eyes are filled with excitement, her soul feels like a free bird... But I caged her here. Her smile God... She looks divine. She's all bubbly, she's showing off her long neck. I bet no man can resist that.

I feel like placing myself in the crook of her neck... But reality hit me. She's smiling and the thing is... She's laughing because of Alec.

I don't like it. Why am I feeling like this? I didn't like the sight. I mean she is with him and smiling. I loved when she smiles but smiling because of him... I didn't like it. I took big steps so that they can feel my presence.

"Hey man," Alec greeted me.

"hi," I said. The smile on her face faded. "hi" she greeted. I just nodded.

"I think the preparations of pleasing me are going well," I said.

"as you can see" she answered. I smiled to myself. She's always ready to pick fights. I never imagined that anyone can talk straight to me. Looking into my eyes. But she does. She doesn't give f***s as others do.

I like it, she's blunt, wild, fierce, cute, bubbly, beautiful, she's all a man would pray for. I came out of my thoughts by a beep sound. She turned to the other side and I went to the living area. I'm already made my mind to send her off.

David's POV :

Actually, I'm eager to taste it. This smells good. Alec came and took a seat beside me. She served it, a piece of chocolate cake. I took a bite, Alec did the same. The cake just melted in my mouth "umm... Yummy" I thought. But this taste feels familiar. I closed my eyes. It's in the past, David. I reminded myself.

I opened my eyes. Sri... She looks excited and worried at the same time, with a frown on her face and biting her lips and getting tensed. "that looks sexy".

She's waiting for a comment. I was about to open my mouth but Alec interrupted "umm.. This.. This is so tasty Srivi" he said. She giggled and returned a smile. I got angry.

Why am I angry? I'm angry because I should be the one saying it first, this cake was for me. But she turned her face to me, Still waiting for the answer.

I don't want to sound delighted "not bad, it can be more good. I won't say I'm pleased but up to the mark". I got up. She did a pout. I'm going out.

She came running behind me. Stopped in front of me. Hands-on her hips... "wait... Wait... Can I go? Can I leave now? Please say that I can leave" the whole time she's talking I was looking into my phone.

"there's gonna be an attack on the mansion soon" sent by an unknown number. I was thinking and she's going on asking. I didn't want to risk anything, I said OK... You can leave. She squealed in joy and ran upstairs. I called and alerted guards near the gate. Locked the doors and informed Alec and scarlet. This can be a prank message too but I can take risks.

We planned to go to the basement and hide there for some time. Sometimes living is important than fighting. Everything got their own time. We took our guns. We are going to the basement. We heard sounds, someone firing guns outside, we hurry.

"s**t," Alec said.

"What now?" scar asked.

"Srivi she's still up there," he said.

"f**k I forgot about her," I said.

"you guys be here I will get her," Alec said.

"Nah... You take care of the entrance... The scar you be here and I will go get her" I said. They nodded their heads. I ran upstairs. I can't see her anywhere. The front door is opened.

The panic rise inside me... f**k no... She's fine... She will be fine... I started calling her name. I opened the door of her room. There stood a man trying to break the bathroom door. I shot him. Ran towards the door.

"hey. Girl... It's me... David are you OK? Open the door" I said. Suddenly the door got open. She hugged me, She's in a towel But she's shivering maybe she's shocked. I didn't know what to do. Patted her head.

"It's alright. We need to go. Fast... Hurry up wear some clothes". I stood outside the door. She wore shorts and a loose shirt.

"Common let's go". I ran in front leading the way..she came running towards me and held my hand. Worry can be seen clearly in her eyes. I held it tight and ran towards the basement.
