The next day I’m super nervous and anxious just waiting to be called to Carter’s office so he can officially tell me he knows everything about me, after the paparazzi debacle last night.
But I don’t hear from him all day during office hours, I do receive a text message from him though telling me he’ll stop by my apartment after work.
So when I got home, I took a quick shower and change into something more comfortable. Shorts and a T-shirt. I tell the doorman downstairs to let Carter up when he arrives, I had just settled in my couch looking for what to watch when he arrived.
“Hi.” I say smiling nervously leading him into my apartment. “Do you want something to drink?” I a

Carter’s POVIt’s absolutely crazy, I have known Isabella for a month and I’m completely crazy about her. I want her with me always, the idea of her being with other men drove me insane with jealousy.

He looked at her like a man who wanted to tear of her clothes.Isabella and I finally talked, I even apologized for acting like a caveman being jealous and now I’m considering making our little sex relationship a real relationship, that’s how much I want her.“What’s going on?” George my best friend asked joining me in my office.“Nothing is goi

It’s my third glass and it’s only tasting sweeter on my lips, it’s a week day and I’m not supposed to be drinking but I’m so fucking nervous after the day I’ve had at work. The tips of my fingers always feel the turning point first when I drink. That familiar buzz that makes my body feel a bit heavy and my mind light, I hardly ever get drunk I had a horrible experience in college and I still have ptsd hence the reason I hardly drink. “What’s going on with you today? You’re drinking, alot.” Lydia says into her wineglass looking at me weird. “Yeah what’s going on and it’s a week day.”Alessia adds. “I have news guys.” I say and they all drop their drinks their attention all in me. “We’re listening.” Alessia says almost eager. “I have a boyfriend.” I say a little smile on my face. “You know I knew it,” Lydia says turning to Ales
Cruel Intentions CHAPTER 28
Carter's POV I drank the sight of Isabella in she looked like she was in pain, so beautiful even in her pain, her long, dark hair lying in loose waves and her gorgeous eyes shimmering with tears and fear. Suddenly I felt guilty for asking her what happened to her, there's obviously a reason she's so scared of being in any locked space. Even her apartment is very open with large huge windows everywhere, and ofcourse how undeniably scared she was the first day I met her. "What happened to you?" I ask again. "I was sexually assaulted." She says then she sighed deeply like it was something she had to get off her chest and my heart crashed to a stop before resuming a fast, erratic beat in my chest. "Well he didn't technically rape me, he almost raped me but it's like he took a part of me with him that night." She explain

I pressed the automatic curtain opener on my bedside table, the curtain opens and I could see that the sun was out completely. I moved the blanket that was over me to the side. Carter must have done that. My heart squeezed. Carter. He had taken care of me. I felt so safe around him, I have never actually told anyone the extent of what happened to me in details. The only people who knew what happened to me was my parents, then my two best friends Alessia and Lydia and ofcourse my friend Demi and I didn’t tell them anything in detail. I sat up, and despite my sore eyes, I had
