LOGIN“Anyway,” Lilly drawls, stretching, “where were you headed just now?”“Breakfast.”“Oh good,” she claps her hands. “I’m starving, but we’re not going downstairs. We’ll just have our meal here.”I don’t argue. Just seeing Noah earlier feels like it drained every ounce of energy from my soul.After br
Sierra.“Uhm… hello?” I say, leaning back against the wall.The scene unfolding in front of me is eerily similar to yesterday except this time, Lilly is here. She’d told me before she left that she was heading to the meeting and would be back before I woke up so we could plan something to do.Appare
The words are right there on my tongue. Every reason why I would never, not in this lifetime, give her a chance... But then everything inside me freezes.I try to fight the thoughts. Try to bury them, to forget them, but they keep resurfacing like an unwanted fucking rash.My hand clenches. My heart
I clench my teeth, my hands fisting at my sides. My stare bores into her, but it does nothing to wipe the fucking smile off Juliett’s face. If anything, it only seems to encourage her because it widens.“If it isn’t the Ashthorne heiress,” Lilly drawls, folding her arms across her chest.Juliett’s s

Rowan. I stare at my hands. My mom speaks softly to me. “I’m sorry Ro, but he refuses to come to talk to you” I’ve never been this hurt. Not even when Emma broke up with me and left. Noah is angry with me and has refused to answer my calls. Ava was right, Noah should come first and yet I let him d
“Sure, I understand” she pauses. “We’re okay though? I swear I’ll keep my promise and won’t mention Travis again” “Yeah, we’re okay. Don’t worry about it” I tell her, meaning every word. “Thanks” she says excitedly. “I’ll let you have your time with Noah. Tell him I said, Hello, and have a goodnig
I had just finished cleaning up when my phone rang. For some reason, I always find cleaning relaxing. It’s a way for me to take my mind off what’s stressing me out. Since I was back on my feet and could fend for myself, I let Lydia go. She was a great help, but I didn’t need a nurse anymore. Plus I
