Ex-fiance's regret chapter 18.
DIANA.How much farther must you climb till fear settles?How much farther till it disappears?For a moment I didn’t know what to say. I just stared like an absolute fool as they stared back at me. I couldn’t help gawking at the woman he had in his arms.She was beautiful.Drastically so..Her wavy blond hair flowed like honey down her back, bright eyes and a perfect heart shaped face, lips full and red. But that wasn’t what held my attention.It was her skin.Porcelain white, like a perfect Chinese pottery.Not a single blemish. Not a single scar.‘‘Diana.’’ He pulled me out of my thoughts, his brow furrowing slightly as I stood. ‘Is there something I can help you with?’‘‘I-’’ I pulled my gaze away from the woman, and back to him. ‘‘I would like to speak with you, sir..in private, please.’’ He only turned to the woman, letting go of her as he spoke.‘I’ll meet you at the hotel.’ The woman pouted, obviously annoyed but she nodded anyway. She looked at me, sizing me up from my head

DIANA Reason seemed to have flown out of the window and by the time it was crawling back in, he had already entered the apartment. One look around and I knew Lily wasn’t home. The fact that she hadn’t even left a note made me slightly worried. She was here before I left, and she hadn't mentioned going anywhere.That was odd.. I slipped out my phone from my pant pockets, sending a quick message to her;*Hey, did something happen?*“I'm sorry if my apartment is too small..’ I mumbled to him as I returned the phone, watching him as he stared round. Did he think it was messy? Was the style not to his liking? Was the furnishing too old for him? “I can manage.” He smirked, sitting on my couch and crossing his legs like he owned the place. I crossed my fingers, staring down at him in awkward silence.“Uhm, would you like Chinese?” I raised a brow, “Pizza?”He stated at me like I'd said something funny.“You want to order?” He leaned back, a smile playing on his lips.“Yeah.” I pursed my

DIANA It burnt the moment his lips touched mine, like gold on embers, heating up to the highest degree but never melting away, never scarring. I felt this heat circulate through my body, settling in my belly. It was a volcanic eruption, a force to behold, one I did not have the strength to contend with. My lips parted as his tongue broke through, filling my mouth with the taste of untamed passion, void of any hint of inhibition, a feeling I had never known. His hold on my waist tightened as he pulled me closer to his chest, deepening the kiss. A moan fled from my lips in response, and it seemed to have riled up something in him. He groaned and he placed one hand on my ass, squeezing it hard, and the other hand wrapped itself around my throat, slightly choking me. I gasped as he pulled away from me, his grey eyes locked with mine, wild with desire. In that moment I believed more than anything that he wanted me, badly. No one has ever looked at me in such a way, so needy for me.

DIANA Oh shit! Oh shit!My heart pounded in my chest as I gripped the door handle tightly. What was he doing here?? Of all days to come, why today??? My eyes shot in his direction as he came out of the room, “Who is it?” He asked a single brow raised.“It’s a friend.” I blurt out, and his eyes go to my hand on the door handle. “What friend?” He questioned as he made his way towards me. “No, no you cannot see him!” I rushed forward, placing my hands on his chest in an attempt to stop him from opening the door. I wasn’t afraid of him seeing David. I was afraid of David seeing him.“Him?” His brow furrowed, displeasure so clear in his tone.“It’s someone from work, it’s not what you think.” I said hurriedly as my back pressed against the door.“Is it that same guy I saw you with?” I felt my heart palpitate at the way his gaze hardened.“Yes, but like I said, he's just a friend.” My laugh comes out shaky as I try to reason. “Then tell your friend you can see at work.” He stressed,

DIANA When my eyes flipped open, he was gone. A wind of disappointment blew past me, as I placed my hand on the side he slept on, sniffing his musky scent that still lingered on the sheets. A part of me hoped he would stay, and we’d eat together and have a repeat of the night before, over and over again.I scoffed at the thought. What a foolish idea. One night together and I’m becoming delusional. Last night was just like the first night we met, just a moment we allowed ourselves to fall into the arms of uninhibited desire, however fleeting. And that’s all it was. Don’t give it more importance than it deserves. I sighed and rose up from the bed, walking out of the room and heading to the kitchen make some instant coffee to clear my head. As I got to the kitchen, I paused. Something wasn’t right. All the dishes were washed, even the pots he cooked with last night. The countertop was sparkling clean, the dishes stacked neatly on the rack. What the.. I stared blankly as I opened

DIANA “Excuse me?” I stared at him, wide eyed.“Don’t act like you don’t know what I’m talking about.” Kevin scoffed as he moved closer to me.“What nonsense are you saying??” I took a step back, but something in me knew what he was about to say.“Everyone knows you’re fucking him, so don’t even try to deny it.” He shook his head, disgust clear on his face. I felt a sinking in my stomach, my moth dry as I quickly glanced round. Everyone was staring.“Kevin, it is way too early for all this, and honestly speaking, I am not in the mood.” I tried shoving him off, wanting to get out of this place, but he didn’t even budge, blocking my way.“All the staff know he was the one who took you to the hospital.” Kevin crossed his arms as he raised a brow.“And when did helping someone become a sign that you’re fucking?” I was one more word away from a scream, letting out a breath in exasperation as I stared at him.“Mr Leota would never go out of his way to help a common staff, unless there’s s

DIANA “Hello?” My voice was sharper than I expected it to be, considering I had just bawled my eyes out.“Someone’s in a bad mood.” His voice teased on the other end.“It’s nothing.” I pursed my lips, staring to the side, my words betraying everything I felt inside. “Has anyone told you how terrible of a liar you are?” “Not really, I’d assume they keep that observation to themselves.” I rolled my eyes, a hint of sarcasm lacing my voice. “Then I’m sure no one has told you how beautiful you look in your sleep.” I paused at his words, annoyed at how my heart skipped a beat.He’d been watching..?“No, you’d be the first. And you’d also be the first to embarrass me by cleaning my kitchen and stocking my fridge.” I said, an odd smile growing on my lips as I remembered what he’d done this morning.“You know, most people just say thank you.” He only chuckled, seemingly unaffected by my attitude.“Thank you.” I sighed quietly, “You didn't have to, you know.” I added, leaning against the wa

DIANA I stared at the black box tied with a red bow at my doorstep. There was a card beneath the bow, and it reminded me of the same one that came with the flowers. Did he send this? I picked up the box and stepped into the apartment, plopping myself in the sofa. What could be in it?I picked the card and opened it, and my heart skipped a bit as I read it. “I want to see it on you tonight. I’ll pick you up by 9pm.” I opened the box and it was a dress, a long black dress with a jewel neckline and long sleeved - it was so beautiful. Not a moment after, my phone rang. “Are you home?” His smooth voice rang through the phone, causing an involuntary tingle in my belly.“Yes, I got back not too long ago.” I replied, “Do you like it?” “It’s beautiful,” I admitted, a smile creeping up my face as I looked at the dress, “you didn't have to.” “I saw it and thought it would look better on you than the mannequin.” He said, his tone laced with amusement.“I’m not so sure about that.” I m

DIANAHe was the last person I needed to see right now.He turned to me, something flashing in his eyes as he stared me up and down. What the hell was he doing here?“What are you doing here?” I frowned at him, my grip on my bag tighter as I stopped some feet away from him.“Don’t start thinking I’m here for you, Diana.” Kevin scoffed. “I came here to take what belongs to me.”“Which is?” I raised a brow, tired and irritated from the whole day.“A frame.” He said simply. “The one with the gold inlays.” “Too bad, Kevin. I threw it out.” I pursed my lips. Why would he think I’d still keep anything that belonged to him here?“Are you kidding me, Diana?’ His outburst shouldn’t have shocked me, it’s the exact same way he behaved when we were together, but it did anyway. “The least you could have done was come over and returned the damn thing!”“When you left, I imagined you’d taken all you felt was of value to you-“ everything that wasn’t me. “-so a plain frame shouldn’t ruffle your feat
