Present
The vibrant pulse of the music guided Sebastian through the lavish corridors, drawing him closer to the secluded VIP area of the exclusive club. As he stepped through the polished doors, the low hum of conversation and clinking glasses enveloped him. The room exuded an air of opulence, with its plush seating and ambient lighting casting a glow over the dance floor which looked spacious with few dancers dancing in realving fits.
Sebastian's eyes swiftly sought out his long-lost companion, Arsen, who stood near the bar, a tumbler of whiskey in his hand with another running his finger through his hair setting them out a black T-shirt with a pair of black jeans with boots and gold jewels with a watch on his wrist complimenting his look and his well build body .
Their reunion was instant as both looked at each other, a brotherly embrace that spoke of years of shared memories and unspoken memories. Amidst the warmth of their greeting, a familiar presence lingered in the memory of Sebastian's consciousness,
SEBASTIAN- BRO WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ?
excitement was visible in his eyes they both never visited each other cause of living apart arsen got shifted to another country for work
ARSEN- you know after Dad left I had to work a lot his voice was heavy with a hint of sadness but soon brushed it off offering him the glass of tequila Sebastian's favorite which he accepted with a laugh,
Before he could delve deeper into the unexpected reunion, a figure swept into the room, commanding attention with a dark aura radiating from her as she walked forward .
gaining the attention of both as Sebastian and Arsen darted their eyes toward the person it was none other than "VIOLET"
She, made her grand entrance, exuding an aura of enigmatic allure that seized the room's collective gaze. Her lustrous black coat draped effortlessly over her shoulders, the subtle elegance of her form-fitting ensemble. light black eye shadow, smoldering makeup framed her captivating eyes, followed by rosy pink lips with tinned berry shade lips giving the attraction to her facial feature as she around, his hazel depths alight with her dark orbs looked so empty a mysterious intensity that sent a shiver down Sebastian's spine.
-"Melinoe"
Arsen said with a wide smile, his tone tinged with a mix of reverence and familiarity. The revelation of her new identity made Sebastian confused with his thoughts tangling him up,
She coupled with her magnetic presence, left Sebastian momentarily transfixed, his mind racing to reconcile the memories of the past with the enigmatic woman before him.
She marched towards Aresn with her boots clicking sound echoing the moment ignoring Sebastian's presence who was looking at her, as she enveloped Arsen in a tight embrace, a gesture that seemed to hold a depth of history that eluded him.
The contrast between her and Arsen could be seen as they were still holding on to each other as they both had shared a beautiful journey together, a hint of jealousy awakened inside Sebastian as he looked at them he was holding her hands with the most generous smile both were chatting not looking at Sebastian making him burn in anger and jealousy as he cough a bit gaining Arsen attention as he looked towards him with a sorry look and introduced her
Arsen - Sorry bro I forgot you ! met "MELINOE"
She is my business partner and my closest person he said with a smile introducing her to Sebastian who seemed lost in her eyes, how could he forget about those beautiful pair of eyes which made his heart go crazy ?
listening to Arsen many questions lingered in his mind as his buddy introduced Sebastian to Melinoe who looked at him emotionless and extended her hand for a handshake as she tilted her head slightly with a sly smirk she continued
MELINOE-"HELLO! MR. SEBASTIAN MORALEZ WE MEET AGAIN "
As she extended her hand for a handshake, Sebastian felt a pang of jealousy surge through him, a burning sensation that seared his heart as he watched his best friend's arms encircle her waist. Her sly smirk and emotionless gaze sent a chill down his spine, yet he couldn't tear his eyes away from her enigmatic presence. As their hands briefly touched, a shiver raced down his spine, leaving him momentarily breathless, his gaze fixed on her as they both withdrew.
Everyone settled down Arsen and Sebastian were chatting and Melione was settled beside Arsen and was busy drinking suddenly Sebastian's gaze fell on Melinoe as she took off her black coat with a swift motion revealing an intricate tapestry of tattoos each symbol and a line telling a story that remained hidden from him but telling many stories
With a flick of her fingers, she swiftly gathered her dark hair, securing it with claw clips that revealed an intricate tapestry of tattoos that continued behind her neck down her spine as she turned facing her back towards Sebastian as she walked down with an earpiece in her ears talking to someone with cigarette flick between in finger as she was smoking at a corner of room gazing outside of window making Sebastian question to himself
-" IS SHE REALLY VIOLET?"
Sebastian pov ~
he was beyond words as many thoughts were running across his mind the girl he used to know that girl with vibrant color who covered her in baggy clothes, radiating positive vibes with a book in her hand always with kindness in her,
and
the girl he meets, who is covered in a black color fitted dress & tattoos filling her arms, cigarettes, and alcohol, with a dark aura surrounding her and an emotionless face makes him confused and only one person can answer that none other than Melinoe .
NO ONE POV~
Later Arsen excused himself to an important call making his way out to avoid the music and Melinoe walked back to the counter sitting with a drink in her hand and sipping on it , Sebastian walked close to her and sat beside her and tilted his head looking at her as she busy ignoring him as he said
SEBASTIAN- VIOLET! what are you doing? leave that !
worry and concern were visible as she was continuously drinking she ignored him and continued drinking as she was about to add more to her glass he snatched the bottle throwing it across the room and shattering it to pieces, making the dancer frightened as she signaled them to leave and got down walked to grab on other bottle from shelf only to be held back by SEBASTIAN as he pinned her between his arms inches apart as she was looking at him emotionless as he continued
SEBASTIÁN - WHAT ARE YOU UP TO? HU? VIOLET DROP THE ACT ALREADY!
the anger and frustration were visible as he gazed into her eyes only 3 words left her mouth
MELONIE - " SHE IS DEAD!"
Making Sebastian frowned as he continued "What?"
as she looked at him walking closer making him step back
MELINOE-
"SHE WAS BROKEN THE MOMENT EVERYONE BULLIED HER "
"SHE WAS BROKEN WHEN SHE GOT TO KNOW HER LOVE WAS WASTE"
"SHE WAS DEAD THE MOMENT SHE GOT TO KNOW HER PARENTS WERE MURDERED "
Sebastian froze listening to her words which were full of rage and hate but it was a bitter truth that was unknown to him till now as she stated further with so much hate visible in her eyes
-
"SHE TURNED INTO SNISTER OF EVIL IT'S MELINOE, VIOLET WAS DEAD 9 YEARS AGO WHEN NO ONE WAS BESIDE HER TO HOLD ON, NO ONE TO SAY IT WOULD BE OK THE BODY AND PERSON ARE THE SAME MR.SEBASTIAN, IT'S JUST THEY MADE ME A MONSTER "
saying it she backed off and walked away from him taking a few steps she stopped in her tracks and said which made Sebastian guilty the weight getting heavier in his heart
"MONSTERS AREN'T BORN MONSTERS ARE MADE SEBASTIAN MORALEZ "
AND
"I AM GONNA MAKE SURE TO RUIN YOUR LIFE IN EVERY WAY BE READY FOR IT "
