DIANA

The second after he locked lips on mine, he lifted me in his arms and carried me up the stairs. His eyes were fixed on mine, dripping with a desire we both shared.

As he got to my room, he kicked the door open, and dropped me on the bed, climbing on top but careful not to put all his weight on me, joining with my lips once more.

My eyes closed shut, as I wrapped my arms around his neck, urging him to come closer, diving deeper into his kiss.

He placed his hand on my breast, giving it a tight squeeze, causing a moan to flee from my throat and instigating a stir in my lower belly.

And immediately I felt his hand move to my back, I froze.

Suddenly my hearts dropped to the very depths of my belly as his fingers play with the zipper of my jumpsuit on my back.

I couldn’t let him see my body. If he did, he’d never be interested in me, with all my scars.

Then I closed my eyes, and all I saw was Kevin, the look in his eyes when he saw me for who I was… what I’d become.

    JEROMESince I’d woken up I haven’t been able to stop staring at her, snuggled in my arms, her face buried in my chest.She looked so beautiful, so at peace…I clenched my jaw as I gazed at her, my hand stroking her face lightly.She looked so serene when she slept, I furrowed my brows as I remembered how she’d looked at the bakery… she was disguised, ever so poorly.Her life has become so chaotic with just being involved with me.She would be so much better off without me..So much safer. My phone rang from the bedside table, and I reached for it, careful not to move too drastically, so she didn't wake up.“What have you found?” I asked as soon as I answered the call.“We interrogated the stewardess and the driver, and their statements correspond.” The investigator announced through the line.“So which one of them did it?” I turned my gaze to the window as my jaw tightened.“None of them, sir.” “How can - “ I was about to raise my voice when my anger rose, but then I paused, turnin

    DIANA My eyes were stuck to the window, watching the buildings pass me by as we drove.I couldn’t even look at him.Why was I feeling this way? Like I wasn’t in his arms the night before.The last time I’d slept that peacefully was when he slept with me in my apartment , and for some reason, I thought I’d never experience that again. And yet here I was..I turned to him, watching him quietly as he drove, how his hands gripped the steering wheel… how much I envied the steering wheel- DIANA! “What happened to the driver?” I swallowed, tearing my gaze away from his hands.“I fired him.” Mr Leota said plainly.“Why?” I stared at him in shock, my brows drawn together. “Did he do something? “His services are no longer needed.” Was his inly explanation.“I see…” I mumbled, but i couldn’t help thinking that he only fired him because of that incident. “Is it because of what happened last night?” I asked, blurting out exactly what I was thinking.“It’s safer not having a third party arou

    DIANA I gaped at him in disbelief. He couldn’t be serious.“You booked the whole restaurant???” I stared at him wide eyed.“Don’t you like the privacy?” Mr Leota cocked his head to the side.“That’s not the point, Mr. Leota!” I let out a breath, staring at him in disbelief.“This soufflé is really good.” He said calmly, taking a spoon into his mouth, completely disregarding what I said. “Are you always like this?” I chuckled, shaking my head slightly.“Charming? Yes, all the time.” He smirked as he sipped his champagne.“I meant do you always go above and beyond for a woman?” I rolled my eyes, leaning back.“You think this is above and beyond?” He raised a brow. “If this isn’t, then what is?” My brows drew together to a slight frown.“Something I can’t pay for.” He said, his voice was low as he stared at the dish.“And what’s that?” I couldn’t stop my curiosity when I asked, raising the spoon to my lips.“Something I do not have to give.” He sounded guarded as he revealed, meeting

  • Ex-fiance's regret   chapter 64.

    The flight back home was beyond soothing.It was just me in the jet, with the exception of the flight attendant and the pilots, but that was okay. I rested my head against the soft seat, staring at the departing city of Paris with a faint smile.I can’t believe I just traveled to Paris.For a date. I shook my head, turning back to the empty space of the jet, still in disbelief.My gaze wandered a bit too many times to Mr Leota's seat opposite mine, and I bit my inner cheek at the empty seat. I’m already missing him..I sighed, leaning back as I thought about everything that had happened. How chaotic can one date go? We traveled, he bought a freaking mansion, we had a date on a boat, I nearly drowned, we had another date at a restaurant he completely booked, and now..Now I’m here.On my way back. Alone.What was so important that he couldn’t come back with me?I didn’t want to know the answer, staring out the window as the buildings shrank as we flew higher, and eventually the smoot

    DIANA What was he doing here??? I stopped in my tracks when I saw Kevin outside the restaurant, his back turned to us.“Dee, don’t engage, let’s just leave.” Lily shook her head frantically as she pulled me away.“Can’t I have one day-” I scoffed in irritation. “-Just one day free of this asshole??” “Don’t let him ruin your day Dee, let’s go.” Lily held my hand, her eyes pleading as she led us away. I frowned at her, my eyes lifting to Kevin’s figure ahead.“Were you asking me to leave because of him?” I scoffed, staring at her with a scowl.“What, no! That’s not it ,” She turned to look at Kevin. “I’ll explain when we get to your apartment, but I don’t want a scene.” She stressed, leading us away.“You think I’d cause a scene?” My lips parted in disbelief.“When you and Kevin are in the same room? Yes, the both of you will cause a scene-” She pursed her lips, staring round. “-and we can’t have that with your current situation.” She shook her head.“What do you mean?” I took a step

    DIANA The kisses were cold, the ones the wind left sporadically on my skin as I stood by the window of my apartment. A heavy sigh left my lips as I watched the sight before me - it was nothing like Paris. The streets of Paris would have brought out the artist in me, if I had stayed a bit longer. I would have filled pages with the unmatched charm they had to offer. I would give anything to go back there…To him. Was Paris really beautiful, or was it just him? The way he made me feel? The way everything he did made me believe I was special? That i was the only one he’d ever do those things for? Then there was a knock on the door, that pulled me out of my thoughts.I walked over to the door, wondering who it was when I opened it.My eyes widened as I came face to face with Kevin, my heart skipping a beat at the two figures behind him, their faces concealed with masks.“What are you doing here?” I felt utter fear at the sight, but I held my ground, staring Kevin dead in face.“To pu

    DIANA They say there is nothing more destructive than fire. I used to believe it too. But even when my body pushed him out of the path of the collapsing ceiling engulfed in flames, I didn’t realize it. When I felt numbness and striking pain as I was wheeled to the ER, I didn’t realize it. When all I could hear was his voice, not the sirens, not my mother’s cries, even then, I didn’t realize it. Until now. It feels like a nightmare. Like I am still under the influence of morphine, and any moment now, I’d see a unicorn fly above me. The tears effortlessly down my cheeks, my heart clenched in pain, my knees could give out on me at any second. “What did you just say?” My voice cracked, I could not hide my shock nor my pain “You heard me, Diana. I don’t feel this relationship is good for us anymore” He said calmly, like he wasn’t ripping me apart, body by soul. “What does that even mean Kevin?! Where is this even coming from??!” I was confused. We were fine a couple o

    DIANA How long must a house burn before it becomes ashes and smoke? It’s been 3 weeks, 2 days and 4hours since he left me. And I am still burning, still hurting – an end no where in sight. And it’s been exactly 3 weeks, 2days and 4hours since I left my apartment, I have now become a stranger to sunlight. It’s been a mixture of fear and despair with a sprinkle of depression – I have never experienced such anguish for all the 26 years I have lived. It still feels so unreal. Ive sent him voice notes every day since he left, begging and pleading for him to come back; voice notes that almost always ended in a hysterical emotional breakdown that lasts for hours-I’m used to it now. It’s now part of my daily routine, along with wailing anytime I see something that reminds me of us, which is practically everything in my apartment.Every where I look I see him, I remember every moment we spent together on the couch, the nights we spent making love – he was my first, in every sense of the

    DIANA It didn’t take long before we reached the house, or maybe it did - I was too lost in my thoughts to notice.The driver opened the door for us and as usual, Mr Leota held his hand out for me, and helped me out of the car. I gave him a tight smile as he led me into the house, his hand firm on my waist, like he was afraid I’d leave and end up in the water again. He placed me on the couch gently, “Wait here.” He said and went into the kitchen. I clasped my hands together tightly as my mind raced. Why would someone try to kill me?I mean, I understood people stalking me, taking pictures of me. But murder?? That is not something I envisioned would happen. Mr Leota came out of the kitchen with a mug in hand, walking over and sitting next to me. “Here,” he said, handing me the mug in his hands, the smell of coffee immediately hitting me. “Thank you.” I gave him a small smile, and I took a sip of the coffee. It burnt my tongue a little, but I didn’t mind. I was freezing, the he

    DIANA It happened so fast. I was already beneath the waters before I realized what had happened. As I sunk deeper and deeper, like there was an anchor dragging me to the depths, my eyes caught their figure.It was blurry, rippled by the surface of the waters, but I could tell someone was there.Hope filled my lungs along with the fresh water, as I raised a hand in a plea for help, to be saved. They gazed at me for a moment too long, and they left. They left me to drown. To die. Once I realized this, I began to struggle, my limbs moving frantically in an attempt to get to the surface.I only sunk faster, and the piercing pain in my lungs was almost unbearable, but not as the thought of dying.Lost in the middle of a lake in Paris. It truly took my breath away. It was my throat that tightened first. I felt my lungs squeeze under the pressure of the lake, the blood that flooded to my head as I struggled felt like fire beneath my skin, it was funny because now that I paused to consi
