Ghost Love

Belle Charlotte 

I was about to drink the juice my cousin Hannah gave me, when suddenly someone hit the glass. Ie glass shattering on the floor with my dress stained with the juice.

"What the...!!" I wanted to scold the man infront of me but I chocked in my words as I raised my eyes to meet his. His domineering eyes were staring at me. He was deadly handsome. Have you ever met a beautiful man? The one infront of me was a result of him. 

I shamelessly stared at him.The aquiline nose he sported complemented his prominent cheekbones. Handsome in an understated way, his basalt jaw and Spartan shoulders spoke of strength. He possessed a latent, leonine power. He seemed moulded from a different cast as he had an androgynous look uncommon to most people.

He had almond shaped eyes and had a sea rover-blue eyes. His earthy scent swirled around him. His height must be a 6'2 because I  felt shorter than him with my 5'6 height, thanks to the heels I wore. I looked up at him with no intentions of lowering my gaze.

I didn't realize that everyone at the party was looking at us until my cousin held my hand. "Belle!" Hannah called me louder in my ear. " Huh?" I finally came to my senses and moved a few inches away from him.

"Hey mister! What do you think you were doing? You just spoiled her dress!" Hannah shouted at him. He didn't even bother to look at her since he still had his gaze on me. I was all over again feeling embarrassed because it was obvious everyone was looking at us.

"I should be asking you why you added botulinum in her drink!" The guy spoke with a devil-may-care attitude.

Hannah turned pale within seconds. She looked at the man with a confused look. She looked scared. How could anyone have seen her? She was sure no one had seen her, she confirmed that there was no one around, how did he even know that it was botulinum? Hannah lips trembled.

"Believe me Belle, I didn't put that in your drink!" Hannah said tugging my arm. I turned to look at her. I know she didn't like me at the first place, she keeps on wearing a mask around me all the time. I even saw her fake tears. I almost believed her again but not this time.

A few months back, my mother was in the hospital fighting for her life because someone has poisoned her. I only had my mother and an elder brother who was the CEO of my late father's  designer shoes company. My brother James died in a mysterious car accident. Then it was now my mom's turn. Before she died she pointed at Hannah and said,"don't you dare move even a kilometer near my grave, you're a snake in disguise!" Then she died.
