Blinded By Love Chapter 25 - Light in the pitch of darkness
Who the hell was Charlie? I didn’t want to look too eager, but it was like I was hearing something that shouldn’t matter, but the curiosity clawed at me. "How about we make it a celebratory lunch instead, that way Love can be here." Sebastian cuts through my thoughts. "That works for me." Her voice chirped as she extended her hand to touch Marley's back, her delicate fingers ran through his fur, and never in my life have I ever wanted to be a dog more. "Thank you for everything, Love," Sebastian said again, his voice steady but filled with gratitude. "This means more than I can say." She smiled, a soft, humble expression washed over her angelic face as she retrieved her hand and wrapped her palm against her cane. "You dont need to thank me. Just focus on what is in front of you. And right now I think Marley is up for a walk. How about we show him around, I'm sure he is going to love the garden." She didn’t seek any praise or recognition. Why? What made her so humble? I knew

I wanted to enter the room and break that bond that was forming so beautifully in front of my eyes yet I couldn't. I've already taken enough for him and perhaps this was the way the universe was finally going to punish me. Love, my perfect little fragile snowflake, my angel of light, someone who I can only call mine in my tortured thoughts. Then another thought hit my chest like a pound of rocks. What if the reason she won't let me get close to her is because she likes Sebastian? Perhaps she felt more identified with him... and what if my brother finds in her the meaning of companionship again? Will I be able to be happy for him? Will I be able to stand looking at that without going crazy? Will I have to put on a scale my love for my brother and the feelings I have for Love? I already know I will choose Sebastian, even if it kills me. My brother. My flesh and blood. The one I’ve always shared my life with, my thoughts, my past, my dreams... and now, possibly my future with

"I think Christian is also fine if you call him by his first name, all of this formality is unnecessary," Sebastian says as he pets Marley's head. "I've asked her to call me by my name many times now yet Miss Bennett is stubborn," I say as I watch Love bite her lower lip before pressing them in a tight, uncomfortable smile. "It's just that I... I..." It's obvious she was struggling to find an excuse, she didn't have one no matter how much she wanted to justify herself in her ways. "Well, I hear you calling Mrs.Swan formally and she addresses you accordingly and like her, I am also a part of your staff..." "Mrs.Swan saw us in diapers, that is why we address her formally. When we were little Christian was afraid of her, perhaps he still is." Sebastian jokes, at least I hope it was a joke. "Please Seb, do I need to remind you how you hid in the fireplace when you didn't eat your brussel sprouts? If anyone was afraid of her it was you." "No need to go down memory lane, the point is y

Love's POVI was touching him.My hand was on his skin.He put it there... and now I have no way of living after this. I'm stuck.And I would like to freeze this moment forever, with his warm skin underneath mine, the edge of his beard slightly poking me, my thumb dangerously close to his full, nude, lush lips.I avoided looking at his eyes, I rather focused on the vase behind his back while the dryness of my eyes reminded me to blink."Go on," Christian said as he inched himself closer to me to the point where our knees touched.His scent, his warmth, and his strength surrounded me and I swallowed hard, but my throat was dry, my body trembling as I fought against the gravity of this moment.My heart beat louder, thrumming in my chest, filling the space between us like it could drown us both. “Christian...” He smiled at the sound of his name leaving my lips not knowing it slipped out before I could stop it, barely a whisper as if it was the last breath I would ever take.“Shh.” His voi

"Christian, I dont want to be anything more than an employee to you. Best case scenario I can give you my friendship but that is it." But my words seem empty to him like he is sure he can make me change my mind and I kept feeling like we had this conversation many times before... or perhaps I did have it like a hundred times playing out in my head. "Love, I will change your mind," Christian says as he takes my hand into his. "But I dont want you to change my mind. I like it just the way it is." Because it's the only way it can be. "And I do not believe that. I think you have your very well-hidden reasons not to let me in your life the way I want but that doesn't mean you dont feel this pull that is happening between us." My reasons? I have but only one. And that is the lie I told you, the lie that the longer it goes on have greater potential to hurt you but if I tell the truth now you will most probably kick me out of your life and I am still not done with Sebastian."Christian, ple

"Thank you for the lunch, Grace. Everything was delicious." I say as I gather my things ready to leave."Thank you for everything, Love. And I hope your leg feels better tomorrow." So do I but at the same time, my leg is at the bottom of my list of problems. Tamara was currently at the top. No matter how much I wanted to escape this mansion I was not looking forward to talking with her."Are you ready?" Christian asks as he appears behind me."I'm sorry?" I ask as I slowly turn around to see him holding his car keys."The driver left so Christian will drive you home," Grace says as she puts her hands on my shoulders. Arguing with her would be as pointless as arguing with him.Christian moved toward me, his footsteps light but deliberate. "Shall we?" he asked, his voice smooth, as he gently nudged the door open."We shall."...Christian opened the car door for me with a practiced ease, his hand lingering just a moment longer than necessary on the edge of the frame breathing me in. I sl

"You have some explaining to do." Tamara says as she sits on the couch, Charlie in her lap enjoying how her hand passes through his fur. "I know," I say as I put down my bag... and the cane... and take off the sunglasses."Ohh I'm really looking forward to hearing what you have to say... I mean how will you justify getting that job on false pretences? Lying to people with such power could destroy you, and all of your dreams... I just dont know what were you thinking Love. How do you plan to get out of it?" I let out a heavy sigh, feeling the weight of her words settle around me like a thick fog. Tamara’s gaze is sharp, eyes filled with disappointment and concern. "It was a chance to help someone but at the same time help myself, help Mira. We would have lost this apartment that no matter how crapy it is it's still better than the street. I was in a tight spot so I just did it." It is the best I can do to justify myself. Is it good? Perhaps not, but lies aren't usually meant to have

Today marks the fiftyth day of my working for the Callahans. It went by so fast and so intense, with me helping Sebastian be more independent each day while at the same time falling in love with Christian more and more. I discovered he is funny, kind, talented, generous, committed, driven, stubborn... so human, in the best way possible. Yet still I didn't let myself allow him to get closer to me. I was still able to use Charlie as a way to run away from him. That little lost puppy helped me a lot but it now had Mira and me in a lot of trouble. "You can't kick us out... it's six days until Christmas where the hell do you want us to go!" Mira yelled, her voice shaking with frustration as she stood in front of the landlord, trying her best to look confident "The rules on your lees were clear, no pets allowed. That filthy mut probably ruined the place." This place was ruined even before we got here, quite frankly he was lucky we were so desperate. "Number one, our dog is not filthy. N

Blinded By Love Chapter 118 - Hope
"Are you nervous?" Bash asked me as he sat down next to me. "I'm excited," I say. It was the truth, I couldn't be more excited to take these damn bandages off my eyes and finally be free. Well, as free as Christian allows it. "How are you feeling, the surgery is tomorrow?" I ask.I could feel him shrug beside me, but the sound of his fingers tapping restlessly on his knee told me more than his words ever could."I'm good," he said finally, eyes fixed straight ahead. "I mean, it's weird, right? We've talked about this for so long, and now it's actually happening.""Yeah," I murmured, tilting my head toward him, even though I couldn’t see him yet. "It feels like we’ve been dreaming about this forever. And now it's real.""This condition made me lose so much of my future, my position, the woman who I at the time thought was the love of my life... it took a big piece of my soul, yet now I can't stop thinking about all the things I got. It gave me a new perspective of life and myself... i
Blinded By Love Chapter 117 - Easy
He didn’t respond. Then, footsteps. Slow, deliberate. He moved closer, and my breath hitched in my throat even though I tried not to let it show. I turned my face slightly toward where I thought he was standing, listening for the soft rustle of his suit, the shift in the air. I didn't need my eyes to feel the gravity of him near me. "You wore a mask, every single day. Lied, to our faces... and you say it was for our own good. You are no better than the bastard I had for a father." His voice was closer now, a whisper laced with venom. "But I am not him." "Perhaps you are even worse. He at least didn't pretend to love us, at least not in the end." Christian says, anger blooming inside of him. "I love you, Christian. More than I ever thought was possible." I say trying to reach him but he pushes back at me, my back against the wall. "Shut up, you lie so well I might believe you for a second." “If I wanted to keep lying, I wouldn’t have told you the truth, I wouldn't still be here
Blinded By Love Chapter 116 - Test
Four weeks later...The last night in the dark...I am on the edge.I can't take this darkness anymore. I keep telling myself it's soon going to be over, that at least I will be able to act freely, even walk into the world alone free of pretenses. I want my parents to see that the lie is over, and I want Bash to get over everything soon, even if that means that whatever this is I have with Christian comes to an end.We have been living in this penthouse for three weeks now, and every second for me has been hell. His indifference at times is worse than his hate, at least hating me meant he still had me somewhere in his soul, in silence alongside this darkness that was eating at me.If it weren't for Mira I would be completely alone, she is the only good thing here. She told me to take off the bandages while Christian was at work but I just couldn't. He was far too unpredictable, popping in and out at different times as if trying to surprise me by doing something wrong and I didn't feel
Blinded By Love Chapter 115 - More secrets
Hearing the voices of people I love around me made me feel peace, so much so that I never wanted them to leave. In front of them, Christian was the man, the husband I always thought he would be. He was loving, kind, and caring. I never wanted it to end.But all that is good has its end, so did this.My friends were about to leave, at least Grace and Bash would be around. At least not until Christian makes us move again.Tamara and Bash were aside, talking. It is nice to hear that the friendship between them is blooming, hopefully into something bigger and better. Grace pulled Christian away to the office for a moment leaving me alone with Mira."Love, call me crazy but something here doesn't feel right. Are you sure you are as happy as you say you are?" I knew she would sense something, and despite promising Christian I would say anything I needed to let go with someone, and who better than Mira? I need someone on my side, someone to stand in my corner... make me feel less alone."Mira
Blinded By Love Chapter 114 - Cold warning
"People are still talking about the wedding. It's the talk of every event since." Grace says as we sit at the table. Christian is right next to me, holding my hand, his thumb tracing the side of my knuckle. It feels nice. Too nice. "And no one thinks you are pregnant anymore, so now they believe it's true love." Bash comments. "Good, because it is. As true as it gets," Christian says as he kisses my cheek. I smile. It is so hard to be in this darkness. The voices around me keep surprising me. Every movement strikes a nerve within me, and I have to pretend to be relaxed. "Why didn't you tell us about doing the surgery?" Bash asks. "We wanted you to see firsthand that the surgery you will go under would work because she will be taking off the bandages just before you go under. That will give you all the training you need to go there without a doubt in your mind that this will work." Christian’s words are calm like he’s presenting a plan instead of revealing something deeply personal.
Blinded By Love Chapter 113 - Or what?
Love's POVI think I understand Bash now better than ever. Being trapped in the dark was horrible. No wonder he felt the way he did. Even when I knew well that this would last only four weeks, walking around with my eyes bandaged up was hard. even harder than I imagined it would be.But one thing was good... as long as I couldn't see I wouldn't have to look at the hatred that grew inside Christian's eyes. This situation goes from bad to worse. The silence between us felt like it was splitting me in two. I could feel Christian beside me, his presence so tense, so tightly wound. I couldn’t see his face, but I didn’t need to. I could feel the sharp edge of his anger cutting through the air between us. The hatred I’d seen in his eyes before, that dark, simmering look, now felt like a constant companion. He didn’t even have to say anything. I could feel it in the way he handled me, the way he spoke, the way he didn’t speak.But I liked the fact we were back home. Perhaps that way I won't fe
Blinded By Love Chapter 112 - Going back
"How long is this going to take? We have a plane to catch." That's not true. It's not like my private plane would go somewhere without me, but I wanted out of this doctor's office as soon as possible."I thought you were returning in a month. If it's supposed we just did the surgery she wouldn't be recovered by now. The world won't believe it." The good doctor says as Love glances up at me."Plans change. Tell her what to do to fake it, she's good at that." I was on edge. Playing nice was so hard and I needed all the willpower I had to do this charade infront of my family, not him."We would need to bandage her eyes... keep her like that for about three to four weeks. And even after that she would need to use sunglasses outside for a period of time... pretend to adjust." Somehow that sounded perfect in my head. She would, even for a short four weeks be forced to walk around blind. She would get to taste her lie on her own skin. "She can do it," I say as I glance at her. "In fact, wrap
Blinded By Love Chapter 111 - Crushed under the weight of the betrayal
Christian's POV I hate her. But somehow I hate myself more for still loving her. I hate how I still want her, and I hate even more the thought of another man having her. The image of the doctor's hand on her filled my chest with rage. She was mine. In every way possible, she was mine. Mine to torture, mine to punish, mine to hate. I wanted to break her. I wanted to watch her unravel beneath me until she knew, without a doubt, who she belonged to. My own torment, my own suffering, would be her punishment. But would it be enough? Would it ever be enough? I have never wanted anyone as much as he wanted her, but with every passing day, the love I thought I had for her had twisted into something darker. The same shade of dark I once felt for my lying father. He was the first and only lesson I need to understand how much a lie can destroy a life. He lied to my mother, he betrayed another woman. He would lie and leave us, his family, to be with someone else. A woman who probably just wa
Blinded By Love Chapter 110 - Plans
I didn’t know how I felt anymore. I still loved him, but a part of me was starting to fear him. The love that once felt so pure, so effortless, was now tangled in a web of control and lies. Every interaction, every word exchanged between us, left me more uncertain. The warmth I once felt in his touch had turned into something that made my bones feel frozen.I wanted to reach out, to say something that would make him hear me, make him understand the pain that I was going through. But every time I opened my mouth, the words felt wrong, twisted by the fear of saying the wrong thing, of pushing him further away. Every time I tried to speak, I felt like I was walking on a tightrope, the fear of falling into his wrath too great.After spending a week and a half not leaving the villa, he finally decided to leave. Here he would just casually reach for my hand as we walked but he did not talk much. At a spot with a beautiful view, he asked a stranger to take a photo of us, and he hugged and eve
