The Secret Of The Beauty In Black

After that fateful night, everything changed for Jennifer. Gone was the girl who used to smile and laugh along with others, cry in their pain and help them in their need. What remained was only an emotionless vessel who just had one aim in her life: Revenge. -- "No one can control me anymore!! I will live my life as per my wish." She said with hatred in her voice.  .... "Heh...Love is what? The best thing that happened to you?? Tsk..tsk..such a fool. Remember, love is just another name of destruction. The ones who believe in love are all fools. I was also one of them, but not now. I will never fall in love again. Also, don't come crying to me once you face a betrayal." .... "What will it take for you to accept me?"  Jennifer looked at the man as if he had grown two heads!! "Mister I have told this earlier too, I don't want to get into a relationship, so why not stop chasing after me?" .... "Please tell me what should I do to make you mine?" The man pleaded. Annoyed by his questions about the same thing again and again, Jennifer finally replied, "If you can defeat me in a fight, I will think about it."  She was quite confident that no one could defeat her. ------   "You lost...." "No, this can't be true right," murmured Jennifer. She was totally confused and shocked. Never did she think that 'he' would be able to defeat her.  "So what do you want?" She asked with confusion laced in her voice. "Are you sure you will fulfil my wish?" He smiled much to her displeasure. "Yes, I never back down on my words." She spoke back with gritted teeth, showing her displeasure, even though she knew this decision of hers might lead her into something complex. "Marry Me," He demanded. "Wait what?!! But you are gay right?" This was her immediate response to his demand. Who in their sane mind would want to marry a gay? That too with the man with whom she was previously in a fake relationship. He chuckled and slowly bent down near her ear "You will know when you will marry me" he whispered. "You..." ---- Torn between the battle of her brain and heart, Jennifer doesn't know what she should choose?  Should she listen to her brain which was constantly signalling her of the alert or should she follow her heart, which would pound erratically for some handsome 'devil'? Because of her traumatic past, Jennifer had sworn never to fall in love again. To never let her heart skip a beat again for someone. But she fails, terribly; when a certain dashing devil enters into her dark world. Will this devilishly handsome man break the walls of her heart?  Will he be able to help her past her traumas and her insecurities? .... But wait! Who the hell is this man? Well...for that stay tuned and continue to read the story!! *It's a slow burn book, hope you enjoy it.

ALL-ROUNDER

In a laboratory,

"It was a success Zavier." Jennifer walked in through a metal door by scanning her fingerprint on a scanner to the right of the door.

"I was waiting for you Jennifer. I am glad it worked out." A man wearing a white coat and protective eyewear was busy mixing some green and pink liquids in a beaker.

"What are you busy with?" Jennifer looked at the various beakers which were scattered on the ground.

"Just experimenting few things" embarrassed Zavier adjusted his eyewear. "Don't come over as the beakers are broken and you might get hurt. You can sit on the chair there." He pointed out a chair in a random direction.

It took him fifteen minutes to clear up the mess. He turned around to find Jason sitting and chatting with Jennifer.

'When did he come?'

"I heard you invented a new bomb Zavier and it was quite a success too." Jason looked at Zavier who was glaring at him as if ready to pounce on him anytime.

"Did you two fight again? How can you two be so childish?" Jennifer probed at them.

"He is the one acting childish and is angry with me as the girl whom he took interest in proposed me yesterday." Jason explained patiently.

"You must have seduced her, humph." Zavier gave him hateful glares.

"Whatever.." Jason completely ignored him.

"How does the bomb work Zavier?" Jennifer wanted to ask him for quite a time.

The gloomy man who was fighting over a girl suddenly became serious. "You were lucky that nothing happened today because I just detected a problem in the bomb."

Zavier walked to a cupboard and opened a drawer to take out a paper which had a raw sketch of the bomb. "It has a radius about 2 cm. This is the smallest bomb I have ever made which is soluble in liquid, mostly the human blood. The problem in here was that it could have burst anytime, as an element was missing. But I have already modified it now."

"You had asked me to placed it on his head why?" Jennifer was curious whether it was absorbed through the hair.

"The brain is most sensitive part with a lot of complicated network inside it. The material which was present in the bomb was specially made for it to travel easily through the brain. It has an impact on the heart of the person. Through the brain it travels to the heart and resides there. When a person dies, by any means and when the heart stops working, the bomb shows it's effect. The material in the bomb can also destroy the whole of Eiffel Tower. It may be small in size but it has great effects."

"So that was the reason you let him go to his boss, Jen." Jason really admired his bestie.

"All of the credit goes to Zavier. You have really invented a great thing." Jennifer praised him sincerely.

"It's all thanks to you Jennifer, you were the one who helped me in it." Zavier smiled at her.

"You helped him?" Jason was surprised with this new discovery.

"Yes, as you know she has learned about chemicals, so she was actually the one who gave me the idea of creating a small bomb and also helped me with various chemicals." Zavier as usual had an admiring look on his face when he praised Jennifer.

"You really are great Jen. How come I didn't know that we had an all-rounder amongst us."
