Love is War or War With Love

"Chapter 10" Meeting her nightmare, and the fire of Envy

" I thought you were leaving me, I.... I mean you are leaving this deal," she said while choking, I just really want this deal, I just really want her, but how? I have no investors, and I don't want my brother's help, everyone kept teasing me by saying that I'm because of my brother, and if this time I did this again and become a burden on my brother then I should leave this deal, but how look at Erlik what she has done without you, she doesn't need any money, she needs love and care, she wants not to be alone again, my mind was flustering what should I do?

" Say, Erik," in our whole meet this time she said my name so beautifully that I become more fall for her.

"Amaya, yes I want to who don't want to sign a streaming writer like you, everyone wants Amaya, and Amaya comes by her own for me, but I want to tell you that I have no investors yet, in my company, I want to tell you that I'm...... I'm nothing and I.......," I stopped look down.

" And you don't want to take a help from your brother, you want to be your own, and this thing pulls me to you, don't you have to worry, you will get your investors after you sign me,"

"After I sign you but how? I have nothing Amaya you have to understand, you know that and you choose me for signing your next book why?"

"Erlik you don't have to worry my name is enough for my book to sell, but you only you can finish my book," she said and it seems really suspicious, why am I?

"Amaya, what does that mean?"

"It means, that it doesn't mean anything, we are signing the contract now,"

"Yes, yes sure if you are saying this so I believe you, I believe you completely," I said and she stares into my eyes.

"Yes, you have to just believe me,"

" But we can't sign the contract right now, you have to take some rest Amaya, I will bring it tomorrow at your place, cool".

"Not cool, I want to sign that contract right now*, she widen her eyes and looked into my eyes.

"Okay, Amaya you are right, you think that I will change my mind again so this is not true I promise I will bring it tomorrow for you,"

"Erlik I just said I want it right now, so I want it right now." She was looking not okay, but extremely aggressive at that time, its better to take her the doctor said that I should don't let her take any kind of stress, what she was taking right now.

"Okay, okay relax Amaya, I'm taking you, you have to be relaxed," with my saying she get up from the bed and start walking she is a very strong woman, much stronger than I thought.

I drive her to my company, brother help me to build this building and it quite luxurious. A good art of masterpiece, having its own theater drama room, and more and more, but I have no good stories to produce, but Amaya story can make to touch the height of success. People who are only in love with me work with me, but this time the company will be end if we don't find investors and Amaya's story. I need her for sure but why she needs me its a mystery.

We entered the building she was holding her bag, and walk slowly after me. I lead her to my office, the workers are about to leave, and the office was almost closed, but when the security guard sees me he opened the gate for me, and let us enter the building.

* This way," I open the door of my office and let her in. I prepared the contract from the first day, but then I kept it in the locker because I have no believe that I can have Amaya Davis. Her eyes were roaming all around my office silently.

" Hey, Amaya here it is," I give her pen and she signed the contract. My lips got wide when she signed it up. Now she is my employee and I'm her boss, an employee will never mess with their boss.

"Now, I'm your boss," I said to her and she give me a weak smirk.

"So, then congratulations," she said to me and I said her thank you. After that, I drive her home.

" You have no investors then what about the actors, whom you are hiring?" She asked Oh, God I have such low allowance I can't afford good and expensive actors for this film. I was barely giving the salaries to my employees.

" I don't know, but first I have to read your story, so I can make a plot in my mind about the actors,"

"Yes you should come I will give you," she said and I nodded my head. I trust her, but not completely how if we don't find any investor.

"The character is innocent extremely innocent, so I think we should cast a good and innocent-looking actor," she said while looking into her phone.

"Yes, just like you," when I said this she followed her long lashes up.

"No, not like me, I'm not innocent," she said.

" Okay, okay we will find an actor like this," I said to calm her down.

"We should organize an audition to find an actor, what say?" I said to her and a weak smile spread on her lips.

" Yes, this is a good idea," she said and again return her eyes to her phone.

We came to her home and she give me the story. These pages are clean and newly written.

" Amaya, these pages were........," I can't believe she lied to me, she give me the fake paper in the morning.

"Don't you dare to think about that, this is the original copy, which I have written, what I give you in the morning was its copy, I was supposed to give that copy to you and this original copy will remain with me, but it's ok, you can take this," she said that and I take a long gasp.

Is this story is your life, or this is related to your life, I said her she turns to freeze. There is something between this story and her.

My stories are my life, my all stories are my life, I'm living because of these stories, these stories strive me to become a writer, my stories are part of me, and they all belong to be the reason of my living, she always turns me speechless. No one can solve this mystery.

Okay, dear Amaya, I can't understand your any word, but you are a magic an angel, thank you, thank you so much, she smiles at me and I leave the mansion this time is to read that story. What is special in her story that people die to sign her.

Amaya pov

Yes, Erlik I'm magic, but not an angel in your story, I will be a devil, a devil who will snatch your everything. This is the time for the next brother.

Elijah William

Another night in a club, another w***e for a night I have slept with many women, but nobody feels like you, Ruth. Why you left me? My body my mind can't forget you.

Elijah can't forget her first love, Ruth. She rules over his senses. He try to reach a new girl every night to find someone like Ruth, but unfortunately, her Ruth was dead nobody knows how except Elijah. Ruth was Elijah's university friend. A really dear and close friend Elijah always dreamed about marrying her, but Ruth treat him like just a friend once a day Elijah lose his control and try to touch her she beat off him and promise him to never show her his face. Elijah was very depressed using women were Elijah's hobby he loves to sleep with women but never found the pleasure which he was looking for. Whenever he uses a chick or girl he saw her as a Ruth and growls her name instead of that girl which makes him a beast. He was really serious about Ruth, but Ruth was started her family and she was so happy with her husband God has given them the biggest happiness in the world Ruth was pregnant and they both are planning for their baby, but they both are unaware of the silent and tormenting storm is coming to destroy their happily married life. On the other side, Elijah becomes a demented person. He starts searching for Ruth. Elijah was so hated to attend business parties, and one day in a very important business party his father sent him by the replacement of his father. Where he finally found the love of his life Ruth the prettiest and magnificent girl in the world, but then he came to know that she had married a billionaire. His world tore into pieces when he saw them together. The fire which is burning in his heart was so dangerous and deep he was like a monster who can destroy the whole world. He try to talk to Ruth in front of her husband Ruth was surprised to see him she tells her husband about him that they were together in university one month later Ruth and her husband were vanished from the world no one ever see them again the case was closed because no witnesses and no one is present who knows what happened to them. Later on, Elijah's father told him to marry a girl named Ana he married her and they both have a baby named David but Elijah can't stop thinking about Ruth. Ruth was in his mind in his heart in everywhere he never talks about Ruth but he needs her he f****d half of the world to find a pleasure which Ruth has given him but never find a girl like her. He never loves his wife because his father knows his son very clearly the whole property which belongs to Elijah his father named that property to Ana and Elijah gets nothing this is because his father doesn't want him to leave Ana at any cost. He knows that he is demented about Ruth and he has done something to her, but because he is his son he never says a word to anyone. Elijah pretends to her wife that he loves her, but the truth is that he is still dreaming about Ruth he wants her so badly.

Where are you, Ruth? I decided to spend my night with Ana, but whenever I get close to her everything starts to continue, I remember how she betrayed me. I don't want to live with her, I want my Ruth back, she is dead but why my heart doesn't want to trust that she is dead, she can't, she has to live with me. I leave my mansion and chose to spend a night in the club. This club make me somehow relaxed. Bring me back from her thought. Bring me back from the past.

The music was loud the girls were dancing, I was completely drunk when my gaze fall on a woman, sitting alone, with a glass of wine wearing a red hot dress, and looking just similar to my Ruth, for one minute I thought she is my Ruth, and suddenly an attraction covers me all above. I walk to her. I looked at her face, and she was just similar to my Ruth, but not entirely, I know my Ruth very closely, but this woman is somehow changed. But the feeling is the same, whenever I see Ruth, the same fire burn inside as now.

"Ruth?" I said to this girl.

"Amaya, Amaya Davis," she said and turn her eyes again to the book. That she was reading.

"Oh, my bad, you look such similar to someone, my mistake," I said and she nodded her head, what she is not turning her eyes on me, how can someone ignore me?

" Hey, excuse me, why are you reading a book in this rush? This is so loud here, how can you nimble to read this book here," I take a seat and sit beside her.

"Sometimes you need boisterous clatter from outside, to keep silent your inner wilderness," she said and I feel she is feeling some kind of sickness from me.

"Did I smell bad?" I ask her because I know I was smelling so bad, because of the alcohol.

"Yes, you really , can you please stay away from me, because the smell which is coming from you is making me nauseous," she said and stand up from her seat and walk away. Her words make me just disgusting, but I can't let her go like this. I want to be close to her she feels so personal. And also be a nice man don't let her go.

"Excuse me, Miss Amaya, can we talk for a while, I can take bath if you say," I stopped her she turns and look me through her long lashes.

"Yes, Mr. William what do you want?" What how she knows my name?

"How.....? How did you know my name?" I asked her and she give me a weak smirk.

" I know you, you are extremely drunk because if you not then you should know who am I, you really did so many things to meet me but I denied and now you are saying that how I know you," she said and I remember she is the writer, Miss Davis, whom I was chasing but she was kept running away. How can I forget that this lady is the one who just looks like my Ruth, that's why I'm chasing her, but she never let me meet her.

"I'm..... I'm really sorry, I was completely drunk, I'm sorry," I repent her. This is the writer with whom Erlik is working.

"Never mind, by the way, your brother has signed me, you both should celebrate," she said but how Erlik has no investors he needs me then how he got her.

"You don't look happy with your brother's achievement?" She said and I give her a pleasant smile.

" Why not? Yes I'm happy but he didn't tell me, that's why I was a little surprised," I said to her.

" Or just he wants to tell you but you are not at home," she said and turned to go her way.

Erlik didn't tell me, and how he got this opportunity without my help, he is my younger brother and I want his life on my command, I thought Amaya will never going to accept to be her employee, but she accepted, how all this happened?

Amaya pov

Amaya returns to her home, with a choking voice and shaking body. Erwin was sitting in the hall waiting for her. When she entered the home, Erwin got worried by seeing her like this.

"Amaya what.....? What happened? Are you okay? Why are you crying?" Erwin, ask in a distressed voice.

Amaya was losing her control she fell on the floor and begin to cry.

" Amaya don't do this, What happened just tell me? Tell me please?" Erwin asks her again.

"I see him, I meet him," she said with a choking voice her words were barely coming out of her mouth.

"You.... You mean Elijah?" Erwin said and she nodded her head in yes.

"Amaya, how could you? Why you went to meet him? You know him, then how could you be so stupid?" Erwin asks but Amaya was crying badly, she was not able to talk her body was getting numb and shaking so severely. Her trembling lips were depicting the fear of her inner.

" Amaya listen to me, don't...... Don't stop being scared of him, Amaya you are here to finish him, don't get him upon your veins again. You are strong, listen to me," Erwin, cup her face in his hands.

"Amaya you are the strongest woman I have ever met, you are just like Ruth innocent and kind, but much more stronger than her, look, Amaya, no one can defeat you, you are his end, don't forget that you are doing this Alaric, for Lilly, and for Ruth, don't get yourself engulfed in the darkness of the past, you are here with new sunshine, and this sunshine is yours just yours," Erwin said to her and Amaya open her eyes widely the anger and bitterness was dripping through her eyes.

"You are right," she gets up from the floor and wipes off her tears.

" I'm strong and I'm his end, do you know Erwin what I have seen in his eyes?" Erwin's lips were wide in a smile and he move his shoulders that he wants to know.

"I see the jealousy in his eyes, and you know whom he was jealous, he was jealous of his own brother, they both share the same blood, but one brother wants to be superior from the other, Elijah is burning in the fire of envy, the envy of winning Amaya, and his brother wins Amaya, now let's see what will Elijah do to win his end, I never thought that my plan should be this much affected,"

"That's like my girl, Amaya your plan is successful how can Erlik think that his dear brother is jealous of his success, and when Elijah tries to take this success from him then Erlik will stand in front of his brother, right?"

"Definitely right, Erwin," Amaya said and Erwin move his hand for a high five. Amaya looked at him and he was about to move his hand, but Amaya give him a five because she was so happy they both chuckle because they have succeeded in their first step.

" Now my baby doll you should have to get some good sleep," Erwin said to Amaya.

" Stop being caring for me like I'm you, little baby, you just care about me as you cared about Lilly," Amaya said.

"You know I see my Lilly living in you, she was just like you beautiful innocent, no matter how the world thinks about you as a world most successful woman or a young clever lady, but for me, you are just a little cat, my little doll just like my Lilly, and no matter how old you have grown up you are just my little girl," Erwin said and their both eyes get filled with tears.

" Yes, I will always be your little girl," Amaya said and leave for her room.

Amaya was resting on her bed, she didn't see Alaric today, and also she doesn't remember about him. Something is changed in her something is really changed, she was thinking about Erlik.

Why do you seem so different? You were so young when Elijah's father send you out of the country for studies, I remember Elijah cried a lot when you were about to leave, you never see me because when he left I was also not recognizable. How you both turn like that, one is just a monster, dangerous than a devil, and one is an angel, so pure, so innocent, I don't know much about you Erlik, but discovering you is a pleasure to see, I know about Elijah more than anyone, but you seem an open book, very easy to read and I want to read you Erlik.

Erlik pov

I can't wait to tell brother, about my achievement, finally, I signed her, it feels like she didn't sign that paper, but my heart, her name her signature is written on my heart, I can't forget these innocent eyes, hoping for help from me, and when I kept her in my arms this was fascinating, and when she said don't leave me alone, I want to give my whole life for her. But everything is just rubbish Erlik, she is not an ordinary woman, she is Amaya, Amaya Davis. She just made me insane, and I have to be careful she is just a psychopath still. And this is just a deal, then why are you caring for her a lot? Isn't it good for caring for others, and what about that investors converse? Is she was right or it was just humor, no she doesn't like any humor. I'm just overthinking.

I was thinking about her, and it feels that she is thinking about me, but suddenly I heard a thud on my door. Someone was banging the door. Who is it? I open the door and found brother Elijah standing in an aggressive mood.

"Hey, bro what happened? Why are you banging my door like this?" I asked him, he was drunk and he look not in his senses.

"Why don't you tell me?" He said in distress voice.

"What are you saying? And why your mood is like this? I have something to tell," I said but he cuts me off.

"I'm asking about Amaya, you signed her?" He said yes I was about to tell him but not like this.

" Yes, I signed her, I was about to tell you but you were not here, Ana said you leave for some work, but what kind of work did you done?"

"Why don't you consult me before signing her? I was waiting for you, no problem you need me, you will always need me, she is the most paid writer, and what you got nothing nothing, don't forget that I give you the pocket money, and I'm running this big business, what are you doing? Just having fun, did you even think about me," he was so outrageous and harsh, his words are striving so bitterly.

"Brother, I never thought that you think about me like this way," my eyes got filled with tears, I thought he cared about me and he will never say these things to me but he did.

" Yes, I'm saying this and remember one thing you will be failed," when he said this my heart just crushed I thought he is the most appropriated person for me, I was so excited to tell him about this, but he hurt me as no one did. He leave in his glory and was standing here still. I close my door, and my tears start to shed tears, I never think that he will treat me like this, it is hurting still.

Erlik and his brother has got a hole in their connection. And this hole name is Amaya. The very different and beautiful harmony of brothers was burning into the fire of envy. Envy is a dangerous thing, it can hurt people so badly, very very badly. This will not stop there, there are many more to explore, there are many more to endure, there are many more to hurt.

Erlik closes his eyes and falls asleep. His heart is innocent, pure and sinless, he never get jealous of his brother, he has his part in Williams groups of companies, but he never thought that he need it, he thought that his brother is perfect for this, and he never borrows money from the company because he wants to become something by his own, he led money from Elijah, but this is his right. He was completely hurt, but his hurt was not stopped here, he has to endure more until Amaya wants, she will stop hurting him, or she will take his life for once at all.

Erlik wake up with a heavy head, he was not in a mood for anything, he got Amaya message that she will meet him in the office and also told him about that investors will also be there. Erlik's face was swell because of crying. And he was upset when he got ready he move downstairs.

" Erlik, come have your breakfast first," Ana's voice stopped him in his way.

" I'm not hungry," with saying that Erlik leaves the mansion. Elijah gets up from his chair and leaves without saying anything.

"Mom, what happened to Dada and Erlik?" David asks her mother and she shrug her shoulders to show him that she doesn't know anything.
