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.

HIS FRIEND CHANGED STRATEGIES??

But a certain devil's mood deteriorated. His mood became sullen, all of a sudden.

'Why doesn't she smile at me like this?' She always gave him half-hearted or forced smiles, but she had smiled so naturally in front of a man whom she met for the first time. Emmett's mood gradually darkened.

The atmosphere suddenly turned cold.

'What happened to this man? He is really unpredictable.' Jennifer shook her head at this thought.

She couldn't understand what goes on in his mind. Why was he displeased now?

His look now could make a child cry in horror.

'What's with this face?'

He just had told Melvin that she was the one who came with most of the ideas, it was a kind of help for her. In the future, she would have to establish some connections with powerful people and Melvin was one of them.

She was happy when he praised her and also wanted to thank Emmett for this.

But the guy was acting a little abnormally.

What was with his mood swings?

Jennifer ignored him, but the man continued to look at her in displeasure.

'This damned woman. Can't she tell that I am unhappy? Why is she ignoring me?' Emmett was acting childish.

It was his first time to be interested in a girl and he didn't want any one to steal her away from him. Not even if it is his best friend. Even though he was married, but Emmett knew that Jennifer had a special charm in her which could attract many people. And in this day, people may get divorced easily. He wouldn't want his sister to be in pain, if something happened. Though this was just a reason to hide his real intentions.

He didn't want anyone trying to take her away from him. She was only be his.

But what he didn't know that no one would be willing to steal her away from him. He was such a big person and also Jennifer really looked very ugly. No one would want her, as for now.

Because in future Emmett would have to drink several tanks of vinegar per day.

Melvin who noticed that his friend's mood turned suddenly bad, looked in the direction he was staring.

He was so shocked that he didn't even breathe for a few seconds.

Did he just hallucinate?

Emmett looked at a girl for more than five seconds!!

This was madness!!

His friend changed strategies??

Wasn't he a gay?

Even though Melvin knew that Emmett wasn't a gay. But his dear wife often filled his ears with Emmett's behaviour towards a girl.

He had been with Emmett for a long time and he had seen that he didn't usually look at a girl for more than five seconds.

Could this be called a great improvement?

But then, wasn't the girl a bit...a bit out of his league.

Or did he like ugly girl?

Because he hadn't seen his friend ever interested in beautiful girls.

Poor Emmett was being judged by his dear friend. Because no one knew how Jennifer looked like, so they obviously get into a big misunderstanding.

Melvin had not seen the photo which Ava had posted. He was at a business trip and he didn't check his mobile phone.

But when Emma had told him that Emmett had a girl now, he didn't believe her as the photo was deleted by Emmett. She had told him that she did not actually looked good, but he hadn't dwelled on the topic as he was busy with his work.

But now when Melvin thought about it, it looked true.

Was she the girl Emma had mentioned?
