"You are a dragon's greatest desire but also their greatest challenge. Their reverse scale can only be and only you. If otherwise, he'll be no different from a lizard."
That was the prophecy that was foretold when I was born.
Technically, it means I attract those who are destined for success. However, those who take me half-heartedly will lose their fortune.
Since I was young, my family has always said this, "Good boys are boys who depend on girls and let them be spoiled by girls." I believed them for the first 10 years of my life. But, it was obviously not hard for me to know that the belief was untrue, or be exact... uncommon in the patriarchy society.
Stuff about women empowerment and blah, blah, blah... can just go to hell for all I care 'cause I'm pretty sure that 80% of the people on this planet know that such words can exist just because men are allowing it to exist. In fact, such a society is so fake that it is literally forcing me to break my 10-year-long-belief.
Well, there goes the bubble that didn't even take half my life to pop. Since then, I decided to go on with the flow without a care for a person's future or potential... as long as it doesn't involve marriage.
Primary school, middle school, high school... ask anyone, "Who is the bitchiest girl in school ?" They'll definitely say, "Dianne Mask". Why ? It's simple. She dated every great guy in school and dumped them as soon as another pops up.
Until he came.
Dressed in rags, standing at the side of the road. He pulled the corner of her pants with shivering hands wet from the rain.
"Help me... I'll do anything for you."
Decision made on a whim, she took him back, nursed him back to health and just let him stay at her house.
She didn't really bother with me that much after he was well but he kept approaching her endlessly all day. With a guy who came from the slums, she didn't really care. But, is he really so simple ?
✧ 𝐁𝐑𝐎𝐎𝐊𝐋𝐘𝐍 𝐋𝐎𝐌𝐁𝐀𝐑𝐃𝐈 (𝐀𝐋𝐃𝐄𝐍) ✧
When I was six I was kidnapped and taken away from my family for seven months. Thirteen years later and I have little to no memory of who had taken me. Ever since then my father has been severely overprotective and never lets me out of his sight. Now that I'm somewhat on my own everything starts to change. When I finish high school and start attending New York University my life takes a turn, for better and for worse. They're back.
☆ 𝐀𝐋𝐄𝐗𝐀𝐍𝐃𝐄𝐑 𝐅𝐎𝐑𝐄𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐑 ☆
Years ago we found our little angel. She just so happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. She was the light in our lives, until one day we lost her again. Thirteen years later and we still mourn the loss of our sweetheart, but we found her once, we will do it again. I am the head of the Russian mafia, or a professor at NYU depending who you ask. One day I raise my head to look around at the sea of students and my eyes lock on a familiar pair of ocean blue irises.
★ 𝐇𝐀𝐘𝐃𝐄𝐍 𝐂𝐀𝐑𝐍𝐄𝐋𝐋 ★
I'm a heartless killer and offer no apologies for it.
As the head of the Russian mafia along with being the CEO to a multibillion dollar company, my life is nothing but darkness. During the day I'm an office man, at night my knife slashes through the necks of anyone I can get my hands on. Killing is my outlet, ever since I lost her. It helps me keep my anger in check. I've never stopped looking for her. We've come close multiple times, but each time came out unsuccessful. As I put a bullet in the head of my ex-guard, Alex comes rushing into the room, and the look on his face says it all.
He found her.
