Evelyn's POV Does my mother have fucking sonar? How is it that whenever I have a second of alone time with Sebastian, she always appears out of thin air? As I hide behind the couch, I listen as Madelyn starts talking. “Where have you been, Sebastian? We’ve been worried sick.” I watch Sebastian
“It’s not my legacy. Gregory may have treated me like his own son, but I have always…always felt like I’m in the shadows. He wants the perfect son that he envisioned. Instead, he got stuck with me.” I can’t even believe what I’m hearing. And then, what I’m seeing. I watch one tear fall down Sebast
Evelyn's POV I open my mouth to tell Sebastian the news my mother just dropped when I see Olivia reappearing. “Oh my Gosh, Sebastian Cain!” She squeals, conflicting feelings bubbling up inside me immediately. Of course, my roommate knows Sebastian. Am I the soul human on earth who didn’t know a
Evelyn's POV Since this party is all Olivia’s been able to talk about since the dining hall, we decide to dress up. Wearing a floral romper and sandals, I push my thick curls into a bun. Olivia wears her brown hair down and has on a purple crop top and jean shorts. We arrive dressed to the nines
I throw back my head in utter annoyance. “I just want this game to end. Now,” I declare. He shakes his head at me, but there’s no answer to give me. Ava interrupts, touching my arm lightly to get my attention. I don’t want to talk about this, not in a million years. Instead of dealing with this,
Sebastian's POV Dammit William and his stupid parties. God, was there actually a reason to celebrate? It’s just a room. It means nothing to me. And here I am, watching Evelyn act like a jackass in front of me. Does she really think she’s finding a way to spite me? Why are all these tools swarm
God, even my teeth are getting more action than I am. My door swings open suddenly, and I lift my head to see a stunned Evelyn standing there. I sneer in her direction, waiting for her to say whatever it is she wants. But she doesn’t. “What the fuck are you doing in here?” She doesn’t answer
Sebastian'sPOVQuickly covering Evelyn’s mouth, I try to come up with a lie on the spot. Evelyn, however, struggles to speak, making muffled sounds regardless of my hand blocking her ability to speak.I know she’ll regret it if her mother finds out.“Evelyn Walters, you have five seconds to answer m
I look at Sebastian, worried that Ava might have to do that. We have him on tampering the breaks and paying off Seb’s team, but what happens if William has a gun or something, and refuses to let Ava go? “That depends. Do you forgive me for being foolish?” Ava’s voice has turned sultry, which is us
Evelyn's POV I’m more nervous than I should be. Ava’s putting her life in danger by talking to William. Not only that, but Sebastian’s laser focused on making sure things go well. I’m just sitting here trying not to tremble. William finally gets to Ava, and he looks horrible. His normal neat a
Sebastian's POV Jack Abbott studies everything I’ve given him. He sits across from Evelyn, Ava and I in our apartment, looking through each page carefully. It took a lot of outlining, but ultimately, Evelyn’s plan is perfect for this. As long as Jack’s on board with his findings, and things go r
Sebastian gives us a double take as he opens the door with his key. “When did you tell Ava?” “She tells me a lot more than you know, Sebastian.” She crosses her arms, looking between the two of us. “I’m the only person who knows the truth about you both. So, sometimes I take advantage of it.”
Evelyn's POV “Are you sure it’s not something I did? I just feel like I’m missing something.” Olivia crosses her arms, as I grab the last of my stuff. It only took me an hour to get everything out of here, and Sebastian’s waiting downstairs for me to finish up. Olivia still knows nothing. Not th
“I love Evelyn, alright? I know you don’t like it or approve, but this isn’t just some stupid game. We know what we’re risking. I’m sorry if you don’t like that.” “I don’t,” she admits, leaning against the back of the chair. “But you’re an adult. So is Evelyn. And I know this isn’t just a game. It
Sebastian's POV I’m in a blind rage now as we enter the track. If it was possible, I know I’d have smoke coming out my ears. Evelyn is still trying to convince me to stop whatever it is I’m doing. “It’s not worth it!” She’s been stressed the entire ride, but I can’t stop seeing in red. The guy
It’s a few days before I hear from Jack again. “You want the good shit or bad?” He asks over a phone call. I tell him I want everything. This is important. “Then I’ll start with the good. Your initial fears of this having to do with your former roommate? He’s heavily involved. In fact, seems lik
Sebastian's POV Evelyn’s bodyguard is six foot six and goes by Tank. He is built as his nickname suggests, with muscles that seemingly look like they’ll burst from his shirt, and tattoos wrapped around many limbs. He’s even got the bald head. In my head, I just call him The Rock after Dwayne J
