Heaven's POV

"King!" I muttered, It's quite far from where I was sitting but I'm sure that it's him. He's using his Ducati which he left before going to London.

"What is he doing here?" I still can't believe that he's already back, David didn't tell me anything, my heart beats became fast. For two years I haven't seen him and I thought I'm okay if ever he came back, honestly I'm not expecting that he would be back.

'King, why did you return?' I muttered once again before standing up, I want to ask him so many questions but he's already gone. It's not the right time to talk to him. David is now a burden for me and I don't want him to add up.

"Potchi let's go" I said as I pulled her leash and started walking back home.

Things are starting to get worse and complicated. I released Potchi from the leash as soon as I arrived home.

"I need to think of ways to handle the situation" I muttered sighing. I know King, I'm the first one that he'll look for. I shrugged the thought because I need to sleep earlier, I'm going to participate on the annual biology competition.

I told Mischa about it but I'm not expecting anything because I don't wanna be upset. I kissed Potchi good night before getting inside the room.

•••

"Heaven, congratulations!" Maggie greeted me as soon as I arrived in the classroom. I'm right, Mischa didn't attend the competition and she didn't even had the glimpse of idea about it.

"Thanks Maggie" I said while poking her nose. These past few days I've been busy so I didn't have much time to bond with her since the last time that we talked in her apartment.

"How are you? I mean your heart" she whispered to me. I just gave her a simple smile. I want to focus on the teachers lecture so I told her that we'll talk later.

"So... What's new?" She said as soon as we arrived in the cafeteria.

"New? Except from David is frequently visiting Mischa at home... King already arrived" I said as I took a bite of my hotdog sandwich. Her eyes widen in disbelief.

"Seriously?" I glanced at her.

"Yeah seriously"

"OMG! Why do you look so cool?" She asked me frowning.

"No I'm not, I'm weighing things and thinking" I replied hastily.

"So what does David look like?" She asked before taking a sip from my soda.

"Oh I forgot to tell, he's my brother" I replied flatly.

"OMG! What a small world!" I laughed by her reaction, she really can't believe what I'm saying to her right now. I can't believe the reality as well.

"How did you find out?" I told her the story when David first arrived.

"Is he mad?" He asked curiously.

"Of course, I myself became mad when I found out but there's nothing I can do" I suddenly lose the appetite to eat my food.

"I think he planned everything. He knew where you are and he seduced Mischa" she said snorting.

"I don't know, he denied it before. Any girls would like him, handsome and rich what else can they wish for right? He's the precise description of Mischa's dream boyfriend" I smiled when one of my classmates smiled at me.

She sighed then leaned on her chair.

"I really hate him. But on the other hand I want him to take Mischa away from you" I gave her a questioning look.

"I thought you're my friend" I said simply. She raised her brow at me.

"Yes I am your friend that's why I'm telling you what I feel. Why don't you just leave her and find someone else!" She suggested.

"If that's easy you don't have to tell me, I'll do it right away" if I could just erase the memory of Mischa then I'd be more than happy now.

"I know I'm sorry" she said sincerely.

"You don't have to, thanks for your advice Maggie but I guess I'm too hard headed" I said smiling bitterly.

"Anyways tell me about King" she said changing the topic. I picked the straw that I took on the counter, I twisted both ends until I can't twist it anymore.

"He's my brother" I said flatly. She spit the soda that she's drinking in so much shock.

"The heck! You have another brother?!" She said quite loud. I threw her the tissue.

"You're gross Maggie" I said in distaste.

"He's the eldest" I added.

"I thought he's your fiancée or something" she said sighing. I smirked at her.

"He's my first love, my boyfriend and I want him to be my husband" once again she almost spit her soda. Good thing she managed to put the tissue on her mouth. I flicked the straw that I twisted afterwards which made the people around look at us because of the sound that I produced with the straw.

"You had a relationship with your brother? That's incest! That's disgusting Heaven" I rolled my eyes at her, I expected that reaction from her.

"He's adopted, when our parents found out that we have a relationship they threw him in Europe to study. Now he's back and about to become the CEO" I grabbed her straw and twisted it once again.

"Isn't that good? I mean you parents don't need to worry because they know King" I snorted in response.

"Nobody knows that King was adopted aside from the whole household and our private lawyer. It will be a disgrace to our family if we ended up being lovers, like you said it'll appear as an incest" I explained. I put the twisted straw on her face and told her to flick it. Once again it caused a sound when it exploded. Maggie just shook her head, I'm trying my best not to act so affected in front of her, I don't want her to pity me.

"You know what? Your love life is so complicated. Why don't you just apply for being nun?" I raised my brow at her. Being nun is boring no offense meant but for me it is. I was about to speak when Mischa arrived together with her circle of friends. Maggie's face retorted at the sight of her,

"She really thinks she's beautiful" she said annoyed. I laughed by what she said.

"She's beautiful" I said hastily.

"You're just blinded, I'm prettier than her duh!" She said while rolling her eyes, that's when I laughed out loud.

"Of course you are Maggie"

"If I am then why don't you fall in love with me instead" she said while raising her brow. I pouted my lips as a response. Honestly I don't know what to say. Now that I thought about it, liking Julia is the effect of King leaving me. But Mischa is different, I know to myself that I love her.

"Hello Heaven! Maggie!" Michelle greeted us, Mischa glanced at me but didn't say anything. I gave them both a simple smile, these past few days I don't approach her much at school and when I'm home I'll just talk to her when I needed to. I distanced myself not because I'm giving up on her but because whenever I think about David kissing her, touching her it makes me angry. And now King is back. I sighed subconsciously.

Michelle and the others decided to sit with us and eat, good thing the bell rang so I stood up immediately and bid goodbye to them.

"The atmosphere between you and Mischa is quite awkward" she stated while we're walking back to our classroom.

"Because it's really awkward. The person that you love was your brother's girlfriend. That's really awkward considering they kiss and touch each other. It's like I'm touching David and that's gross" ugh I hate thinking about it.

"Point taken, same goes with you and King" I stopped and faced her frowning.

"We're not related by blood so technically it's not gross" I argued.

"Yeah yeah yeah...Whatever Heaven Anderson" she said dismissing the topic.

We focused on the lecture and didn't talk afterwards, when the bell rang Maggie and I prepared our things immediately, I'll hitch with her.

We're in the parking lot now I was about to get inside her car when David appeared.

"Heaven we need to talk" obviously. My mind replied.

"Uh Maggie you may go now, take care" I said winking at her.

I followed David to his car, I missed driving mine, we both have Lamborghini Gallardo, his was black and mine was a customized royal blue.

He brought me to the coffee shop far from our school.

"What?" I asked him as soon as our order arrived. He didn't respond instead he threw an envelope on the table. I opened it to check what's inside. My eyes widen in disbelief.

"This can't be, I already erased the website" I muttered.

"You're intelligent but that's not enough, you're just an amateur" he said while sipping his coffee. I didn't expect that he would make an effort to investigate.

"So? I already deleted the data, Mischa won't believe you, she thinks I'm stupid" I said matter of fact.

"I know that, but the fact that we're siblings will make her hate you, she'll think that you used her to take revenge on me"

"Revenge on you?" I repeated quite loud. I laughed by what he said.

"You're hallucinating David, I've met Mischa first. I met her a year before you, that time when I ran out of your car I already met her. That's the reason why I transferred to her school" I explained irritably.

"How do you explain the website huh?" He said flatly. I leaned on the chair and started massaging my temple.

"That's pure coincidence, the world has billions of people and it's not my fault that she clicked the website that I made!" I defended myself.

"What about the money?" He asked hastily.

"I returned it to her, you can ask her if you want. Honestly I should be the one interrogating you, how the hell did you know Mischa?" I know it's not in his character that he'll lie but people change.

"I should be the one accusing you, you always spoil my love life. You don't want me to be happy!" I'm trying my best to act calm.

"Like I told you before, I never tried to find you since you left. I got tired of your stupid games, as to Mischa we met months ago at a boutique and when our company merged" I looked at him confused. It's been a long time since I saw my parents but I know that they're expanding the business.

"Anderson and Lewis are now business partners, our parents already met Mischa and they like her to be my wife and vice versa" I caught my breath. I clenched my fist, I want to punch him but I know that it's not right.

"Tell Mischa everything before she finds out, I'm giving you the liberty to be honest. If you confessed to her I'll promise you that I'll do everything to make her not hate you" I looked at him sharply.

"Are you threatening me?"

"I'm giving you an option Heaven, but it's up to you if you're gonna do it or not. I don't want my sister and my wife to be in bad terms since you're both gonna live in the same roof in the future" he said seriously.

"You're so confident, remember we're living together. I can make her love me" I said faking a tough tone but he just smirked at me.

"You're living with her for half a year now but nothing happened. Mischa loves me, but you? I don't think so" he said in a mocking tone.

"I admit I'm really amused that you made Mischa believe that you're an orphan. She must have trusted you so much Heaven, I'm imagining what she'll look like when she finds out about your website" I'm imagining it too and it's not a very good sight.

"I know you're afraid David" I said seriously.

"Afraid of what?" He asked flatly.

"You're afraid that if I stay with Mischa longer she'll fall for me, you're afraid that she'll choose me over you" I said cockily. I can feel his fears. He laughed by what I said.

"I will repeat, Mischa loves me and I love her as well. Heaven you should know when to stop. You're just hurting yourself and making things more complicated" he said sternly. I'm not afraid of him. He didn't wait for my response, he stood up and about to walk away when he stopped.

"One more thing, King was already back" he said and continued walking away. I'm not surprised because I already saw King. I didn't realize that I'm clenching my hand too much that it hurts. He's clearly threatening me.

"I won't give up Mischa easily David" I swore before sipping my frappe.

•••

Maggie and I were heading to the front gate, I stopped suddenly when I saw a familiar figure.

"Hey why did you stop?" I didn't respond to her question, I'm stunned while looking to none other than King. He waved at me but I didn't respond.

"Hey!" She snapped at me.

"King" was all I said, she followed my gaze and gasp when she saw him as well.

"Shocks, you didn't tell me he's handsome"

"Shut up!" I whispered sharply. I want to run but my feet were locked on the ground. He's getting closer to me and it's making me sweat.

"Hi" he said to both of us when he stopped in front of us.

"Hi to you too" Maggie responded sweetly.

"What are you doing here?" I managed to ask him.

"I'm looking for you. We need to talk" he said with his natural husky voice. He's become more handsome than the last time I saw him. His body became bigger and he became taller. I suddenly felt a familiar feeling, my body shivered and my heart beats fast. A beating that only he can do but I'm mad at him, I hate him.

"We don't have to talk, get lost" I said and about to walk away when he grabbed my arm.

"Heaven please" he pleaded but I snatched my arm on his grasp. I was about to say something when I saw Mischa heading to the gate with Michelle. I suddenly became nervous.

"Maggie you should go now" I whispered to her.

"Huh? Why?" She asked me confused

"Mischa is coming, you go on ahead please" she did what I told her to do immediately. Mischa stopped when she saw me, she's frowning and figuring out who's with me. I can't afford to be busted right now so I faced King and pulled him to his Ducati.

"Okay I'll talk to you, let's go, go!" I rushed him and wore his helmet immediately.

"Fudge!" I exclaimed when he started the revolution, he's a fast driver so I hugged his back tight.

I sat on the sand, he brought me to the beach where we always go for surfing, the ocean was calm so there were no surfers around.

"Why did you return?" I asked him flatly.

"Dad wants me back, for business" he said as he sat beside me. I snorted.

"After they threw you in Europe now they want you back" I said annoyed.

"That's not true, they brought me there to study. I knew before I left that I'll be back" he explained gently.

"They brought you there because they don't want the idea of me loving you, I'm sure you knew that" I said hastily. The hatred that I feel for my parents came back suddenly.

"Heaven we're siblings, we can't --"

"You're not my brother! I never treated you as my brother and you know that, I loved you more than anyone in this world, I thought you feel the same way too" I said as my tears started to fall. I want to punch him right now, I want to release all the pain that I concealed through the years.

"You know that I love you Ven, but I'm caught up with the situation, when we're at the airport I want to turn around and take a final glimpse of you but David was there. Our parents are more important because I respect them so much" he said before leaning closer, he hugged me afterwards.

"How long will you pay them for adopting you? It's their choice when they decided to bring you home. You don't have any debt to pay" I said while leaning on his broad shoulders.

"I don't know but one thing is for sure, I don't want to disappoint them" he said while caressing my back. He's really loyal to our parents and I hate it.

"How did you find me?" I asked while sobbing. I changed the topic because I know that it's getting nowhere.

"David told me, our parents want you back. They want me to bring you back" I retreated from his hug.

"I'm sorry but that won't happen"

"Why?" He said frowning.

"Because I'm not yet ready, I have to fix the mess that I created" was all I said.

"Is it about Mischa?" I'm not surprised that he knew, he's close to David.

"It's none of your business King" I said dismissing the topic.

"It's my business if it involves you" he said gently. I laughed sarcastically by what he said.

"No it's not. It stopped years ago, when you left me" I said flatly.

"Ven, listen to me. Mischa is David's girlfriend" I looked at him sharply. Now he's on David's side.

"Mischa is my girlfriend! She's mine, I found her first!" I said while punching his chest. Once again he hugged me to stop me from what I'm doing.

"I'm sorry Ven, I'm so sorry. I made you like this" once again I cried in frustration, he's right, if he didn't left me and chose to elope with me I won't experience the pain that I'm feeling right now.

"Your sorry won't change anything! I won't come home tell them that. I won't leave Mischa" I kept on saying.

"Shhhh I'm here now Ven. Please don't cry" he said softly, he's trying his best to calm me down. My eyes were closed, I've calmed down a bit but I'm still sobbing.

"Look at me" he said as he lifted my chin up.

"Your King is here for you. I won't leave you again" he said before kissing my forehead. I missed the times when I called him my King.

Somehow it made me smile. He's really good when it comes to calming me down. He's capable of making me do things that I don't want when I was younger, he's the only one who can calm me when I'm throwing tantrums.

I opened my eyes when I felt his lips on mine because I want to make sure that he's real. He never kissed me on my lips before so it's the first time.

I felt my body tensed up when his tongue entered my mouth. He's in my fantasy when I was younger, I've always dreamed of him kissing me. I'm enjoying the moment when he stopped and then he pushed me away gently.

"I'm sorry, Ven I'm sorry" he said hastily.

"There's nothing to be sorry for" I assured him. I mentally slapped my forehead because I got carried away with the kiss.

"I'm going home" I informed him before standing up. I started walking away and he followed me.

"Home where?" He asked curiously.

"To Mischa, please don't talk to me again" I said before running away but he grasped my shoulder.

"Stop playing games Ven, you're not gay!" He said angrily. I turned around to face him. I massaged my temple before slapping his face.

"You know me, I don't play games and I'm always serious. My feelings for Mischa are true, so don't stop me because you have no rights!" I said leaving him dumbfounded.

I love him, but it's not the same as before. He's going to be the next CEO of our company and my parents can't afford the humiliation if people were to find out that we used to date.

I didn't let him drive me home because I don't want him to know Mischa's address, even though I know that he'll find out sooner.

When I came home, Mischa is already there watching TV. I ignored her and headed to the kitchen, I'm so thirsty. I took a bottle of soda and about to take a drink when I stopped. The vision of King kissing me came rushing back, I touched my lips for a moment and closed my eyes. I can still feel his lips on mine and again it made me shiver.

"Reminiscing something?" I flinched when she suddenly appeared.

"Uh... No... Uh my lips hurt, I bumped to something" I said stuttering, she just raised her brow at me.

"Bumped to something? Hmm I wonder what it is" she said meaningfully.

Is she hinting something? I asked myself.

"Yeah" was all I said, I don't want to talk to her because I have problems that needs to be solved. I was about to head to the living room when she talked once again.

"I saw you at school, who's the
