" Ava?" He calls my name.
" You two know each other?" Matt asks. Even my aunt looks surprised.
" What the fuck are you doing here?"
He smiles at me and drops the bottle of wine on the dining table. He sits down next to Matthews.
" You know each other?" Aunt asks.
" Yes." He says and looks at me. It's been a long time since we saw each other. Even before I left the mansion, we barely converse since he's not always around.
How did he go from Rob to Jeremy? What the actual fuck is going on?
" How did you two know each other?" Matthews asks. He looks at Jeremy and then me. I think he has a superpower for telling when someone is lying. Especially me.
" We uh... He's my friend. We've known each other for quite a long time now. How come I didn't know you two are related?"
" Because you didn't ask." Rob says. After this dinner, I'm definitely stabbi
AVA'S POV Romeo is still in the backroom. I pull out my phone to drop a text for Asa, but I stop myself. If he's not willing to talk to me, maybe I should stop pestering him. Taking a sip from my vodka, I look around the area Nick went. He must have left the club because I can't find him." Do you mind?" A male voice asks. I turn to look at the stranger. He looks forty and well dressed. I nod, signaling to the barstool next to mine." What do you want?" I ask him. I'm not in the mood for any conversation, especially when my heart is hurting. This shit sucks." Straight to the point. They told me a lot about you and I doubted you don't take shit from no one."" They? What are you talking about?"" I have heard a lot about you. Such a unique talent inside one little woman. One glance and no one would notice you are a woman with such beautiful charm that can make any man fal
AVA Asa doesn't kiss back and I don't have time to complain cause he pulls away. I breathe in, our eyes are still locked with great intensity." Fuck." He mutters and exhales, looking around the suite. His eyes fall on Rio who's unconscious. He'll be awake very soon." I am sorry."" Why?"" Because I fucked up, and I take it back, and I'm really sorry." I tell him and bite my lip. Asa breathes out again and runs his fingers through his hair." Stop fucking doing that Ava."" I missed you and I was miserable without you. I want us to go back to what we were."" What were we? What the fuck were we? We were nothing, remember."" Don't say that." I plea." Don't say what? Don't tell you the truth? I can't do this with you right now." He says and pulls out his gun from his jacket pocket. He checks the bul
ASA" I love you Asa Xavier." She whispers into my mouth. At first I thought I didn't hear her say it. She literally just confessed she loved me. And hell if it doesn't feel good to hear it from her mouth. I stop kissing her as I look down at her. Fuck she's so beautiful. This past month without her by my side was hell. There is no passing day I didn't think about her. My thoughts were crowded with this woman. To think she'd hurt me still pisses me off." Did you mean that?" I ask her. She bites her lip and smiles up at me. God I missed seeing her doing this. Biting her lip with her beautiful big brown eyes. She stands on her toes and hoists her right thigh around my torso. I wrap her other thigh around my torso and pull her upwards so we're eye to eye. My hands are on her butt." I love you Asa. And I fucking mean it."" Say that shit again." I tell he
•AVA• ♥TWO WEEKS LATER♥ It's my aunt's wedding day and I've never been happier. These past weeks have been a little rough but it's been good. I settled things with Asa and we're like an official couple now. We're dating, in a relationship, whatever you wanna call it. And my job's been good too. I visited the mansion with him two weeks ago and I had breakfast with the guys. Nicholas was pretty cool and I'm really grateful he's the reason we're back together. Nick and I are now on good terms except his father. I apologized about the heirloom I took and the man's heart is as cold as stone. He just nodded that day and dismissed me. I don't know what that means though, but at least it's something." I don't know what my son sees in you, maybe it's something worth keeping." He had said that day. I still don't know what that means. I stare at my
♥ EPILOGUE ♥ I slowly open my eyes and itch it. God I feel light and tired like I've been sleeping for two days. I look around Asa's bedroom and I'm surprised it's not Asa's bedroom. I look around my strange environment and I'm pretty sure this is not Asa's bedroom. The drapes are white and the decoration in this room is different from Asa's bedroom in his penthouse. Where's this place? I sit up slowly. Something feels strange. I look down at myself and I'm wearing a white lace bikinis. The bikini top is pure lace and my nipples are visible. Who put this on me? The last thing I remembered was that I was with Asa, we just got back from dinner with my aunt and Matt and we were in bed together. That's the last thing I remembered. And I wasn't wearing these beautiful white bikinis. I hear the sound of waves and cold breeze. Where am i?
A pair of eyes sprang open. It belongs to Asa Xavier. He looked down at the woman who slept next to him with her arms around his body like he was gonna slip away. Definitely he was gonna slip away, like he always does. He unwrapped her arms around him as she squirmed. " Cultivate some decency and don't try to leave again." She said to him, partially still asleep. " Get your fucking hands off me." He grumbled, shoving her arm away aggressively. She jerked her eyes open at once. " What exactly is your problem?" She asked as she watched Asa get up. " Fuck it Zoey, you're my fucking problem. You should always remember we are just fucking. Don't expect anything in return." He yelled at her and got out of her bed. Zoey was one of his many sluts. But she always wanted more from him. She wanted to be his, not just his slut. His queen. His everything. She wants to be the woman wh
AVAYou know one thing about falling in love, is it makes you do a lot of things you really don't wanna do. It's crazy and for some awkward reasons I've never been in love. I don't even care much about men because I guess I was pretty busy thinking of pockets to pick from.I look out the glass walls of the cafe as I watch this couple walks by. They look happy or they're pretending to be happy.I hum to the song blaring from my earphone as I eat my dozens of donuts. An average girl shouldn't be eating this but I was never an average. In fact whatever thing I am today wasn't really me f
ASA" What the fuck did you do that for?" Coen asks as he glares at me." Do what?"" She was obviously eavesdropping on our conversation. Fucking cunt." Coen hisses.I huff. The waitress walks to our booth as she drops the bottle water on the table." So can I get your number now?" Coen asks the waitress." I'm not interested." She says through clench teeth. I ro

AVA"Ava." I inhale at the sound of his voice. One week without hearing this voice was hell for me. I can't even remember how I lived through the torments of each night. They were the worse nights of my life." Asa."" What do you want?" The harshness in his voice reminds me of how much I fucked up. How much I ruined the good times we had together. I'm pretty sure he hates me now. The corners of my eyes stings with tears and I'm gonna cry. I sob. " I'm sorry." I hear him sigh on the other end of the line. He's quiet and I'm guessing he's thinking if he should talk to me or ignore me like I deserve." Bye, Ava."" Ace please." He hangs up. Right before I can even say 'Ace please.' I scream and hurl my phone against the wall. I fall down on the floor next to my bed and sob. It's over. He's never wanting me back no matter how much I
AVA" I knew you were going to hurt me, but I didn't realize it was this soon."His words continue to ring in my head every passing day. The hurt in his eyes burnt deep cuts into my heart every time I closed my eyes. How did I fuck this one up again? I can't sleep at night. I just can't. The guilt is eating me up and I want to see him again. To apologize and pour out all the feelings I've been hiding, locking away. I feel like shit and I hate myself for hurting the one man who treated me like I'm the only girl in the world. Who made me feel like a queen even if I don't deserve it. Why did I do this? Maybe he's right, I'm no different from Ramona. It's been one week, one week since he told me he loved me. One week since he opened his heart and confessed how much he felt about me and how he wanted to keep me. To make me his. And all I did was stare at him. Because I don't deserve him. All I've done was hurt him and used him to satisf
ASAMan, fuck this shit. I pull out a cigarette from Nicholas's pack and light it. Taking in a long drag, I stare at the ceiling and spur out the smoke. This is hard. Falling in love is hard. It has always been hard and I hate myself for forgetting so soon. Nick sits back as he watches me with his shit eating grin. What did I get myself into?" What did she say?" Nick asks. I don't wanna talk to nobody. Thinking about the look on her face, I wanna punch something. Someone, anyone at all. I fall back on the couch and run my hands down my hair as I inhale the cancer stick. Why did I tell her I was in love with her? I couldn't help it. I guess it was time to finally tell her how much I feel towards her. That I was tired of pretending the sex we've been having is meaningless, when all this time it meant a lot to me. And the minute I opened my mouth to tell her I
