DANGEROUS DESIRES 2

ESMERIA

SAN AURIUS CITY

(New country, new city, new vibe)

Larissa Bailey

(I've heard the night life is best here. Maybe I'll check into a hotel before moving in a new apartment)

I checked into a hotel and looked for an apartment online. Fortunately, I found an apartment.

Next Day

Larissa Bailey

(There's no option I've to live in this small apartment)

Lucy

Hello...?

I look around to see a girl with light blonde hair standing in the doorway. Must be my roommate.

Larissa Bailey

Hello, it's Larissa

Lucy

Oh Larissia? I'm Lucy. Nice to meet you.

Larissa Bailey

Likewise

Lucy

You're so pretty girl.

Larissa Bailey

...Thank you.

Larissa Bailey

So...can you show my room?

Lucy

Definitely. Come!

Larissa Bailey

(There's no space here...how am I supposed to live here? God knows how long.)

Lucy

Is it not to your liking? You seem-

Larissa Bailey

No, it's beautiful.

Larissa Bailey

Thank you for showing my room.

Lucy

No problem. I'm always happy to help.

Larissa Bailey

(She seems like a friendly and chill person)

Larissa Bailey

(There's one problem though. My office will be 2.5 hrs away from this city)

Larissa Bailey

(I better start preparing for the party immediately)

FEW DAYS LATER

Larissa Bailey

(Today's the day!)

I've to get ready for the party. I can't be late because I have to give my best performance. I just hope I don't make any mistakes.

VENUE

I arrive at the venue and there are several elite guests.

I'm waiting for my turn as numerous people are getting up on the stage to show their talent. I'm so mesmerized by everything. A beautiful girl gets on the stage. Once she starts singing I can't help but notice she almost sounds like a siren.

Soon it's my chance and I get up on the stage to show my dancing skills. It's been a while since I've danced, but I still try my best. I've to catch "their" attention. I've spent these past few days practicing a lot. I can't fail or else it's over.

After I'm done performing everyone goes silent.

The silence is then followed by a loud applause. I think I did. The crowd seems impressed.

*AFTER 40 MINUTES*

I was getting bored but then a blonde woman gets on the stage. She starts playing piano. Honestly I don't have much knowledge, but it does seem like she's proficient at what she's doing.

Wait, I think she's the famous actress Caroline Mendez. How come I didn't recognize her? She's pretty well known worldwide. Even in my country.

After a few performances I see the person whom I came here for. AUGUSTINE D'ANGELO

I repeat the name in my head. For a moment it seemed like he locked eyes with me. Nah, maybe I'm just imagining things.

Though I wonder where the others are.

Augustine D'Angelo, Alistair Levine, Nikolai Silvius, Lucien Ivers. My targets

People seem pretty excited awaiting for him to start singing.

I can't help but notice how handsome he is.

CROWD: I can't believe Mr. Augustine D'Angelo can sing. How come he was hiding it all along?

The crowd awaits in anticipation and he soon starts singing.

Augustine D'Angelo

🎶You're here, I'm here as well.

Augustine D'Angelo

🎶Come closer so that I can say within a moment I went crazy for you.

Augustine D'Angelo

🎶When I saw you I lost my senses.

Augustine D'Angelo

🎶My heart went restless and lost control. I'm so lost and intoxicated. I'm going crazy

Larissa Bailey

........

The crowd goes silent. Soon there's applause

*LOUD APPLAUSE*

Larissa Bailey

(His voice...I believe it has the ability to awaken a person in coma)

Larissa Bailey

(He has an amazing hidden talent for singing, I hope he keeps it hidden)

Larissa Bailey

(Or else people will suffer listening to him)

He does have a good deep yet clear voice when he speaks, but he has absolutely no talent in singing. I hope I don't have to hear that again or else I'll be deaf very soon.

************

It's soon time to leave the party. I hope I've left some impressions.

As I'm about to leave I'm approached by two tall figures. They're none other than Augustine D'Angelo and Lucien Ivers.
