Stacy waved her hand, "Hey!" She said with a smile and Joe nodded his head, acknowledging my presence."Didn't expect to see you here," Louis added in amusement, his eyes going from me to Christian."Actually, I have to leave now," I said, deciding to stick to my words and keep Christian and his friends in that one night only."Oh no, no way," Louis interjected, pulling me from my arm into the couch, "You're staying," he ordered and screamed at Stacy, who is already in the kitchen, "Bring a glass for Lilly as well, she is staying.""No, really, I should be going," I insisted, my eyes drifting to Christian, asking him to support me in this."Actually, if you would like, you can stay and when they leave, I can drop you off at your place," He said, trying to reason with me and it felt like he wanted me to stay, as if he liked my presence, just for the heck of it.Stacy came back with glasses, "Lilly, why don't you help me prepare the cheese plate," She asked politely and for some reason,

One week later...Lilly's POVIf you've ever wondered what would it be like to have slept with one of your professors, I'll tell you; awkward. So damn awkward.He's like everywhere on campus. I only wonder, how come I never noticed him before?I leave one class to find him entering it. I run through the lobby to catch one of my courses only to have him leaving his office and almost bumping into him and right into his hard rock abs. See, told ya, awkward, very awkward to know by heart how one of your professors looks like naked.Not cool, not cool at all.I've never been so stressed my whole life as I have been through the past week.I feel like I have to watch each step I take, just so I don't have to come face to face with him again, because every time we cross paths, I either smile politely and nervously to which he returns with a curt nod, pulling on the whole professional act as if he didn't push his thing down my thing in his office just a couple of days ago.Oh wow, I really nee

"Call me when you get there," Sally insisted as she paced around my bedroom, "You know what, just text me every hour, so I can make sure you're still alive."I rolled my eyes at her dramatic reaction, "Keep your location turned on also, so I can keep checking just in case I can't reach you.""Oh my god," I pressed my palm over my forehead, "And I thought my dad was overprotective," I mumbled, "Stop being so dramatic, it's a just two-day vacation, that's all."She crossed her arms over her chest, "Vacation?" Her eyes narrowed at me and she sarcastically remarked, "Why? Are you so tired after just one week of the new semester?""Sally, did my parents assign you to watch over me or something?" My eyebrow raised, addressing her over-reacting state.She shook her head, "No, but you're going all alone, with a guy you met only one week ago, and let's just not ignore the fact that he is our damn professor!"I sighed, "It's not like anything is gonna happen!" I shot out, "I just wanna have som

Remember when I said that I will be the one in control, that I will try to keep myself at a safe distance from Christian.Yeah, that ain't happening."So, I took the liberty to book our rooms beforehand," Louis said once we arrived at the resort.He handed a key-card to Joe, "You and Stacy in the same room of course," He placed another card in his pocket, "One only for me, you know in case I pick up a girl," He winked at us, "Considering it's my birthday and all."He handed the last card to Christian, "And one for you and Lilly.""Uh wait, hold on, hold on," I interjected, "I was under the impression that I will be staying alone," I stressed out, "Like in a totally separate room with a couple of floors away from his."Louis's eyebrows pulled together and he looked between the four of us, "Okay, are we gonna pretend that I didn't see you two kissing at the club and then leaving alone," He said ever so casually, "I mean, you saw each other naked, so there is no problem in staying in the

Three months later...Lilly's POV"Lilly, it's your turn," Louis ushered and I placed my cards down with a very proud smile."Oh, come on," he whined, slamming down his cards with a loud huff.I chuckled, "Don't be a sore loser," I said and his brown eyes shot me a very hard glare.His phone rang and his gaze drifted to the screen before they went back to me, "This is not over yet, you just declared war, little one," He threatened before he got to his feet and walked away to answer his phone.Christian chuckled and wrapped an arm around my back and on instinct, I leaned closer into his embrace. It was natural now, to have his skin on mine, to be in his presence and surrounded by him.It has been three months since our little weekend getaway and Christian and I stuck to our words. Within the walls of our university, he is only my professor and I am his student. As hard and thrilling it was, with just a few teasing looks here and a few winks there, we didn't do anything too illegal.We

"Well, someone is in a good mood," Sally commented, addressing the big smile over my lips as I took a seat beside her."Why wouldn't I be?" I questioned and made her scoot away, making a place for Noah."She didn't stop smiling since she got here," Noah commented, as he took the seat beside mine.I turned to him and raised an eyebrow, "Hey, you're on my side, okay?"He raised his arms in surrender and I nodded in satisfaction, "Of course she won't stop smiling, considering her boyfriend is gonna give us a lecture in five minutes," Sally mumbled, totally bothered at the fact.I shot her a glare, "He is not my boyfriend," I hissed at her before my eyes drifted around the class, hoping no one heard her, "And shush!""I don't think I'll ever be okay with this," She mumbled annoyed before her eyes drifted to Noah, "Come on you, back me up over here!"He just shrugged, "I haven't seen anything bad from his side, so why not," He said, sticking to my side, "Let her have some fun."I nudged hi

Chase's POV"Hey," I said to Conner, as I stood by his room's door. My voice grabbed his attention from the laptop's screen and to me."Yeah?" He asked and I pulled the near chair and sat across from him, "I am gonna ask for a favor and you can't say no."His eyebrows pulled together, "Okay?"I nodded my head toward his phone, "Take that," I said and he confusingly picked his phone up, "Now, open it," I added and he did that, "Now, call Sally."His eyes snapped from the phone to me and they widened a bit, "Wait, what? Why? Why would I do that? What do you want? What's wrong?"My eyebrows pulled closer at his refusal, "Weren't you two close friends, what happened?"He chuckled nervously, "Me and Sally? Close?" He shook his head, "No, no, we were just normal friends, normal, not close, casual even, I mean more like acquaintances actually," He started rambling, "I mean, a friend is too big of a word sometimes, like yeah you and me, we are friends, but like Sally and me," He waved his han

Chase's POVThe words scraped out of my throat before I pulled the phone away, my mind and heart started a battle of their own, the first showing the evident proof of her actions and the other defending her with every ounce of love it had for her.I first felt the shock mixed with denial; because a small part of me still thought she was just lying, trying to push me away again.That part's voice faded away almost immediately when I heard whoever was beside her, that's when the anger overwhelmed every other feeling left. My fingers tightened over the phone, my fist itching to seek destruction just at the mere thought that...Fuck, I couldn't even begin to comprehend that she actually moved on, leaving what we once had behind her.I trusted her.I believed in what we had...in her.She did love me, I know that, it was real. Yes, it was young love, high-school love even, but it was just as real as any other feeling.But Lilly, she was always a losing battle for me, since day one, she was a

Next day...I promised myself that yesterday was the last day I will ever shed a tear. Last day to be weak and vulnerable. Exposed and bare.Last day to let it all out.But as I laid down now, after the operation, waiting for my recovery, with my cheek pressed up against the pillow, my eyes looking through the window, at the blue sky, at the free birds, and at what's alive.I couldn't hold back the one lone tear the silently escaped my eye.That's all. One single tear.I felt a tender hand reach for mine, I turned around, my eyes falling on the nurse, who smiled at me so warmly, "You can leave now, if you want."I nodded, and pulled myself up."Do you feel any pain?" She asked, concerned.I do. But, it's all on the inside.She helped me get up, she even helped me change the gown and wear my clothes. She took pity on me the moment I said I came alone. No one waiting me outside that door, just me, facing and correcting my mistakes on my own.And I took her help, seeking comfort from a s

There is something seriously wrong with my health. So very wrong. Especially in the last two days. It's no longer just signs of being pregnant. I have a feeling it's more.The cramps tightening my stomach can't be normal. They're so painful, ever so slowly ripping at my insides. I couldn't sleep all night, not just worried about Max, like every day, but this immense pain couldn't let me close my eyes for even a mere second.This morning, I found a few blood droplets, and the sight of them had my panic rising to a whole new level. I was so scared, terrified even of what I read when I searched the internet for the signs, so the first thing I did when I got to the hospital was take a blood test and book an appointment with a gynecologist, just right before dad talked to me and got to know almost everything about Christian.Almost everything...He doesn't know about this child that's probably inside of me. I can only imagine his reaction. If he wanted to kill Christian with such a passion

Lilly's POV"What do you mean you didn't find him?"The words and the furiousness that followed them had me snapping my head toward dad's direction as he talked through the phone. My heart seized and panic rushed through my chest as I understood who he must be talking about."Roman, don't make me lose my mind now," He snapped and got to his feet, he rushed a hand over his face, "I don't care...I told you...Roman, I am so gonna kill you," He threatened frustrated as he listened to whatever uncle Roman must've said. He cursed something under his breath, "He is just a fucking professor, where would he hide, huh?"Oh my god...what did I do again?He listened to whatever Roman was saying and his gaze drifted and fell on me, his gaze cautious and calculating, and I couldn't miss the flicker of blame in them, like he knows it's all my fault. I did this again. I gave him the chance to escape; I could swear dad felt it.He rubbed a hand over the back of his neck, and his gaze flickered away fr

Alex's POV"Roman, you need to catch him fast," I said with a loud sigh, placing the phone over the table, hating Roman for arguing with me over every damn thing."Alex, the moment Max got hurt, I checked, Christian was here, so it's not him, that's for sure," He said through the speaker, pulling on me the good guy act, "So, do you really want me to risk hurting someone innocent, that doesn't seem like you."Nikolas walked into the room, his eyes flickered from me to the phone, where Roman's voice is coming from."For god's sake, just get Christian," I ordered with an annoyed sigh, "I am willing to take the risk with him, he is anything but innocent," Even if he isn't the one behind this. He had hurt Lilly, one way or another, I saw it in her eyes when I decided to trigger her, I am more sure of it now.Maybe he didn't hurt Max, but he has a relationship with everything unfolding. I should've trusted my instincts when I met him. Something about him was just off."Who's Christian again

Nikolas's POVMy chest tightened with every word the doctor muttered, about the surgery, and about the risks it still imposes on Max and his health. His words drove me insane, multiplying all the worry and the fear I have been feeling since Alex called me and told me Max was hurt.I came here as fast as I could. I waited behind the scenes for his health to get better, but it was only deteriorating over the past few days. Then, the doctor suggested the kidney transplant and here we are. Even with this solution, the procedure is still risky and there are some possible side negative effects we have to prepared for.The doctor left the decision to us, then he walked away, leaving us in the waiting room alone to discuss it."What do you think?" Alex asked, his eyes drifting between Cara and up to me as I came to a stop beside them.I shook my head, "I don't know, from my part in this, I would do anything," Fuck, I will give him both of my kidneys if I have to, "But, it's not my decision to

Lilly's POVI thought that was it.No more lies. No more secrets. No more surprises.No more heartbreak.I thought I had it all figured out. I thought I connected the dots of my parent's complicated past, but no.No.This man, he is...he is not him. He can't be. It's not possible. I saw dad aim a gun and fire.I saw dad kill him.But, he is here.How?He is the same man I saw on the phone that made me discover his existence all those years ago. The existence my father didn't plan on ever telling us about.Those eyes, if I focus on them only, it's like I am looking at Max...at my little brother, the one who is fighting for his life inside. The one in danger. The one who can be finally saved, by...this exact man.His biological father.My uncle.The man who ruined everything.The man who hurt my mom.Oh my god..."We still have just a couple of more tests to run and then we can prep him for the surgery," The nurse carried on, explaining the whole transplant procedure, but I wasn't liste

Three days later...Alex's POVNerve-racking. This wait has been the worst wait of my whole life. My nerves breaking down with every passing second and minute.Cara's state hasn't been any better. I've spent the past three days trying to get her to eat and rest but she was beyond thinking logically. I couldn't blame her. They have been keeping Max in intensive care, trying to stabilize his state and they wouldn't even let us see him, which only worsened the situation.I wanted to let the anger consume me like it once did, get out of here and search for whoever did this, but I wasn't going to repeat mistakes I made years ago. I stayed here, by my wife's side, and waited for my son to get better and I let that job...for those who can handle it better.I am going to find who did this and death wouldn't be a sentence I will give them. No, nothing I ever did before will measure up to what I will do for who dared lay a hand on my son and threaten his life and health this way.Ashton, Kathe

Alex's POV"Where are you going?" Cara asked when she saw me putting my jacket on."I don't know," I said, shaking my head, "I have to find him, I will search everywhere, I will go to the campus, I'll call his friends, anything, I need to find him."Something doesn't feel right. I have to see him, make sure he is okay, get him back home, and talk to him about everything else.She nodded, agreeing, "Okay, tell me if you find him, please." She said and my eyes fell on hers, on the redness under them, on the devastation that I haven't seen in so long.I inched closer, my hand rested over her cheek, "I will, cupcakes," I said, leaning closer, I left a kiss over her forehead.I grabbed my keys, my phone and hopped into the car. I started the engine and took off on the road. I had called him a million times since he left, but he didn't answer. As I wandered the streets, I called each and every friend he has, but none of them had seen him nor heard from him.Worry pressed harder and tighter

Max's POV Everything changed.Every fucking thing. Cold slipped through my veins, the words I heard slammed me. One by one, they struck me, battered and beat my mind, like an everlasting penalty, to pay for a crime I didn't commit.I rode down the streets, searching. For what, I didn't know.My fingers tightened over the steering wheel. A shuddered breath burned as I drew it in, my lungs pressing against my ribs, and I replayed everything in my mind, from the very start. From my first memory, up till this day.I know my parents loved me, they never had me doubting otherwise. They didn't need to reassure me, but the thing is, my confidence is slowly being destroyed, my beliefs, in myself, and in those around me are rapidly fluttering due to this.I remember reading a psychology book that said deviant behavior was genetic, and now I worry whether that evil is embedded in my genes. Whether people could tell, somehow, that I'd been created from violence...that maybe one day, I'd be just
