CHAPTER 29 [ Their Privacy ] ~SOPHIE~ I was the first person to scramble out of my seat to get to him. Travis’ body jerked uncontrollably on the floor. His eyes had already travelled all the way to the back of his head. It seemed like he was fighting for control over his own body but losing—painfu
CHAPTER 30 [Take it off, Sophie ] ~SOPHIE~ True to his words, Justin took the bed. He found me a flimsy blanket along with some pillows and practically chucked them at me. “If you snore, I’m throwing you out.” He threatened me before slumping on his soft looking and might I add, King-sized bed
CHAPTER 31 [ Take it off, Travis ] ~SOPHIE~ “Please…” That desperate plea was my undoing. I didn’t know why this was happening to him but what did it matter when he was squirming helplessly? “Okay, I’ll take it off for you.” I assured him, clasping his cheek with my free hand. He groaned, lean
CHAPTER 32 [ Fucked To The Last Inch ] ~SOPHIE~ I was no virgin, and Travis certainly didn’t treat me like one. He wasn’t looking to kiss my lips till they were swollen or to fondle my sensitive breasts till I was dripping wet and ready to take his cock; none of that lover's foreplay. All he cra
CHAPTER 33 [ A Fever Dream ] ~TRAVIS~ The noise that woke me sounded like a mixture of human sobs and the cry of a wounded animal. My mornings were usually quiet and so the noise wasn’t only strange, it also made my head throb. As my consciousness grew clearer, so did the sound. As much as I wan
CHAPTER 34 [ The Villain And The Victim ] ~TRAVIS~ “Dad…” George seemed to struggle with his emotions—unable to decide whether to comfort his sobbing daughter or to charge at the man who had driven her to tears. “Darling, I told you there’s no way she’s in there—” His wife innocently joined hi
CHAPTER 35 [ Left To Grieve ] ~TRAVIS~ After I left the Wellington’s home that morning, my first destination was the hospital. Someone had some explaining to do. Someone had to pay for messing up my system. I refused to believe I was capable of carrying out such a disgraceful act without bei
NOTE: [This chapter is completely free as it is still the same chapter as before. Only with an ending that the previous chapter 35 didn’t have. It got cut off during editing process and I only saw it after I already published the chapter. Republishing will take a while to be approved so please bea
CHAPTER 106 [A Rebound] ~SOPHIE~ I stared at my reflection in the mirror, tilting my head to the left, then the right. My dress fit like a second skin—black, sleeveless, simple but elegant. It wasn’t over-the-top, but it hugged me in all the right places. Still, I felt uncertain. “Do I look l
CHAPTER 106 [A Rebound] ~SOPHIE~ I stared at my reflection in the mirror, tilting my head to the left, then the right. My dress fit like a second skin—black, sleeveless, simple but elegant. It wasn’t over-the-top, but it hugged me in all the right places. Still, I felt uncertain. “Do I look like
CHAPTER 105 [Erasing Him] ~SOPHIE~ I’d made up my mind to erase Travis totally. In my thoughts, in my future and even in my memories if I could help it. I had decided, and now, I was beginning the painful process of erasing him. The first conversation I had that morning was with my father. I’d ti
CHAPTER 104 [ Another lost kid] ~ELAINE~ (8) I kept my gaze locked on the food, my hands gripping the edge of the blanket wrapped around me. My stomach twisted painfully, but the fear in my chest held my body in place. I didn't trust it. I didn’t trust him. He didn’t look like he was trying to
CHAPTER 103 [The Lesser Evil ] ~ELAINE~ (7) I curled up tighter on my bed, pulling the covers around my frail body even though I wasn’t cold. It wasn’t the temperature that made me tremble—it was the growling in my stomach and the pounding in my head. Hunger had a way of distorting everything, e
CHAPTER 102 [No String and a Billionaire’s Name] ~SEBASTIAN~ (3) The moment I stepped into the house, silence greeted me like a sneer to the face. No voices, no footsteps, no Sophie playing the dutiful daughter as I ordered her to do. Just silence and the faint creak of floorboards as I shut the
CHAPTER 101 ~TRAVIS~ I didn’t know what it was or what to call it exactly; that feeling that curled in my chest the moment Sophie looked at me like a stranger and walked away with an actual one. But whatever it was, it was familiar. I’d felt it before on the very night she ended things. That
CHAPTER 99 [You Heard The Lady ] ~SOPHIE~ The can of juice in my hand was already warm. I hadn’t taken more than two sips, but I tossed it into the nearest trash can like it had personally offended me. Coming here was a mistake—again. I shouldn’t have let my father’s excited words or Travis’ i
