Betrayed Heart

Lizzy smiled as she saw Mia dressed in her costume for costume day in school. Mia smiled at her mom and flashed a smile…a smile that reminded her of someone, someone she didn’t want to be reminded of.“Mom! See I am dressed as Daenerys Targaryen” she said and Lizzy smiled lovingly in return.“It’s Daenerys, honey,” she said and Mia shrugged.“Dae-ne-rays,” she said rolling the “r” “Sounds exotic,” she said and Lizzy grinned. Mia had been the one from her past that didn’t bring her pain. The one thing that kept Lizzy sane.She watched as Mia straightened her white wig that she had ordered from Amazon, and her daughter looked every inch a princess.“How do I look, mommy?” She asked and Lizzy grinned. Lizzy tried to ruffle the wig but Mia danced away, wagging her finger at her.“You look like a queen,” Lizzy said and Mia smiled smugly.“Good, because I am going to burn some guys with my dragons,” she said, making a pouty face.“Mia!” Lizzy exclaimed and her daughter laughed.“I am kiddi

Lizzy POVThe costume day was a total success. Mia was awarded as the best role-playing child. She did her part well especially the “Dracarys” part.

That’s not good” she said and Lizzy laughed and made an imitation of Mia on the stage.“Dracarys,” She said and Mia laughed.“Maybe you should have taken the role of mom,” she said and Lizzy laughed.“Maybe” Lizzy agreed. Lizzy used to love acting before. But now she work

Xander POVWhen Xander felt her lips on his, He lost all sense of reasoning. She was like a drug, he couldn’t stop having her. He just wanted her so much, it hurts.

Lizzy pushed him away and scowled.“Don’t ever try that” she said and Xander stared at her, he wasn’t fazed. The fact that she allowed him to go as far as kissing her meant that she still wanted him as much as he wanted her.“Why didn’t you tell anyone about Mia” he asked and Lizzy shrugged. Xander could see that she looked uncomfortable like Mia was a topic she didn’t want to discuss, of course, it only made him want to know more.“How old is she?” He asked and Lizzy shot him a deadly glare. One that would have brought lesser men to their knees in forgiveness but Xander was every bit as stubborn as she was, even more.“It’s none of y
