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.

"WHY ARE YOU SMILING LIKE A PIG?"

"Why do you think so?"

Jennifer stayed silent for a while and then spoke, "Then tell me why did you sleep in my room and that to on the same bed?"

She knew that he was purposely trying to divert the topic about him having dark spots, so she didn't try to further dwell on that topic.

Emmett looked amusedly at her, "Woman I think this is my hotel room."

"Aren't we in a relationship now. What is yours is mine, so that makes this room mine." Jennifer stated righteously.

A rare smile bloomed on his face after hearing her say that.

Jennifer was surprised seeing him smiling like that.

'So alluring.'

He looked too breathtaking. His strikingly handsome face seemed to be glowing. His mesmerising eyes curved slightly as his lips turned up into a beautiful curve.

Jennifer lost herself into his beauty. She felt her heart skip a beat when she saw him smiling. He looked too handsome.

'Come back...come back.' Her mind was telling her to come out of her reverie, as the man in front of her was too dangerous.

'Danger ahead.' Her mind gave her warning signals.

Whereas her heart was asking her to admire his handsome face.

Finally her mind won the battle as she came out of her reverie. She knew that she should keep some distance from the man in front of her. She didn't want to suffer like she had in the past. She didn't want to go through the same pain ever again.

But there was something different about the man which attracted her like a magnet.

She cleared her throat to hide her embarrassment. She had to save her self esteem, so she countered back, "Why are you smiling like a pig?"

This made Emmett's smile broadened.

'This girl sure keeps grudges.'

It was true that Jennifer was angry with the way he had called her a pig. She never liked keeping favours and usually returned them in the same way she received, within a day.

Hence no one liked to mess with her.

Jennifer's breath hitched as she saw him smiling more broadly.

He just looked damn handsome and if she was like her old self, then she would have by now pounced on him and eaten him clean.

Though she was mesmerized by his smile, but this time her mind was more clear.

She truly wondered how this hot and handsome man turned out to be a gay.

Suddenly she saw the man in front of her shift as he made his way towards her.

Jennifer backed away with his each forward moment. She was cornered by the man at the bed's edge.

If she were to move back more, then she would just fall down from the bed.

Jennifer gulped as she saw the man's wicked smile. He heart thumped madly as she looked at him. Even from such a close distance, the man looked too handsome. There wasn't a single flaw visible on his skin.

Emmett slowly made his way towards her right ear as he blew air in her ear.

Jennifer shivered as she felt goosebumps rising on her skin.

"W...what are you doing?" She incoherently murmured.

Emmett chuckled at her response as he whispered slowly, which came out to be seductive, "What do you think I am doing, en?"

"Yo...you move back and let me go."

She tried to push him, but he was like a hard rock, who didn't budge with his hands on either side of her body, entrapping her in his embrace.

Emmett spoke, this time his voice coming out to be sexy and hoarse, "Why are you trying to move away? Didn't you say that we are in a relationship? So I am just fulfilling the duties of a boyfriend."

Jennifer moved her head sideways. She didn't know why but she just couldn't find strength to fight back. She was trying hard to not look into his mesmerising eyes, which were like a black hole waiting to suck her in.

But by doing this, she gave Emmett a better access to her ear.

He breathe in her ear, which made Jennifer blush furiously. She tried keeping a poker face, but the redness on her face and neck totally betrayed her.

Emmett smiled at this, "You see as I am trying to fulfill my duties, so I should probably do it properly. As you said whatever is mine is yours. So that means that whatever is yours is also mine. And these...."

He gently grabbed her chin and turned her head, complying her to face him. He then looked at her plump lips, as he gently caressed them with his thumb.

He continued, ".....lips also belong to me."

Saying this he moved his lips closer towards her pink ones.
