EVA.
"How did last night go?" Aliya grins at me as she slumps on the bed and I roll my eyes, shutting the door behind me. "Bad. Honestly bad. "
She sits up with wide eyes, "Are you serious? I thought you caught that blonde guy. "
I shake my head and stride towards her, taking the seat next to her. "That bastard has a girlfriend– or had. "
"Aw, you poor thing. " She coos, wrapping her hands around my neck and I swat her hand away, which causes her to laugh. "You shouldn't think too much into it, babe. His loss. We still have time before we head to college so plenty of time to catch fun. "
"Yeah, " I breathe. "How did yours go?"
When her lips spread into a wide smile, I know she had a better night at getting fucked than I did. A damn lucky bitch.
"Okay, so I met this girl. She was so hot: We were talking one moment, and the next moment she's dragging me down the halls and pushed me into the bathroom. God, Evie, you have no idea how I felt when her mouth was on my cunt. She's so damn good with her tongue. " She sighs dreamily and I roll my eyes.
"Explains why you were nowhere to be found for the rest of the night. "
"Unfortunately, she didn't leave her contact. " She says with a pout and I chuckle, grabbing my book and leaning back against the headboard. "Since when do you care about them leaving their contacts?"
"I know!" She hisses and lays next to me, turning on her side. "But there was something different about this one, Evie. I felt it. "
"When she had her tongue on your cunt?" I tease her and she swats at my hand.
"What? I'm speaking facts. "
"Not exactly that, but it's part of. She did wonders on me, babe. Her face was the first image that came to mind when I fingered myself to sleep. " I look up from my book to her and smile at the look on her face. This is the first time Aliya is truly engrossed in anyone she's messed around with and it'll be a lie to say I'm not amazed.
She looks at me when she feels eyes on her. "You have no idea how that feels like. "
"Getting tongue fucked by a girl? No, I'll pass. " I wave her off and she smirks before jumping on me and settling between my thighs.
"I could show you—" Her hand moves to each side of my thighs and I kick her off the bed. She groans as she falls to the floor with a thud.
"God, Evie! Did you have to kick that hard?" She complains and I smirk. "When you act like that. "
Aliya rolls her eyes. "Yeah, right. I forgot how much you love sucking those dicks. "
I laugh and shake my head as I rest back against the bed, turning my attention back to the book in hand.
Aliya and I have been friends since the moment she walked up to me, and shoved me in the janitor's closet to tell me about her frustration with her project. She's loud and carefree which is one of the things I love about her. We are similar in so many ways, yet so different from each other and that includes our preferences.
"Hey, isn't that your hot guy?" Her voice brings me out of my thoughts and I look out my window to see him striding inside his house with his famous signature look.
I frown and look away, turning back to Aliya. "Why did you have to tell me? "
Aliya chuckles and says, "I don't understand why you hate his guts so much. "
I narrow my eyes at her and she holds up a hand. "Okay, fine! I do understand, but come on, girl. He's so hot. If I were you, I'd be humping him, not hating him. And the fact that you're neighbours makes that so much easier. " She winks and I glare at her.
"I'm serious. " She says.
"You're not. I hate the sight of the guy and you want me to sleep with him?"
She shrugs. "Hate sex is always so hot. It's something else, I swear. The explosion of the—"
"Shut up, babe. " I groan and she chuckles before looking out the window again, mouthing, "He's fuckable though. "

"Did your friend leave?" Mom asks as Mrs Holton places my plate before me and I smile at her, to which she responds with one of hers before moving away.
"She did hours ago. " I reply to mom's question and she nods before taking her attention back to her food.
"Hey, Princess. " Dad's voice echoes around the room and the man appears in his usual home attire of slacks and shirt with rolled sleeves. He walks to my side and presses a kiss to the side of my head before striding towards his wife to peck her.
"I thought you had things to do. " Mom says as he takes the seat opposite her.
"I wrapped it up to have dinner with my family. " He smiles and places his hand over mom's, before looking back at me with a frown. "Where were you last night, Eva?" Oh shit. I was hoping the man wouldn't notice, but of course, nothing I do passes his grasp.
"Last night?" I repeat and he nods, his eyes not leaving mine.
"I was with Aliya. " I smile and he narrows his eyes at me as if he doesn't believe my words, but he says nothing as he turns back to his food.
I let out a breath of relief too soon because dad turns back to me, and say, "If I find out you snuck out to a party to hump some guy like last time– you won't like it, Princess. " And there goes the warning.
"I didn't. " I tell him and he nods before looking away from me.
Having an overprotective father can be fucking tiring. Father refers to it as being caring, and careful but I term it as not letting me live my life. It wasn't always like this. Matt Carson wasn't always this protective. Dad had his simple rules and as long as you stick to them, you have no problem with him, but since that incident from years ago; those rules got suffocating and frustrating. Though I tend to break those rules every other day, heading to college will be my real escape from Matt and his upsetting rules. The freedom that comes with being away from here is something I look forward to. I love my father, but I love living my life more.
~
"I'm off to my room. " I announce, leaving the two lovebirds on the couch as I take the stairs that lead to my room.
Shutting the door behind me, I fish my phone out of my pants at the sound of the vibration.
ALIYA: I heard tonight will be so much better! Are you coming? Maybe you'll finally find a hot blonde guy who doesn't have a girlfriend this time.
I chuckle at the words across the screen and type back a reply.
ME: Can't. Dad is suspicious and watching me like a hawk.
She replies with a sad face and I turn the screen away from my view, throwing the phone to a side and collapsing on the bed.
I raise my head at another beep and grab the phone.
It's a picture of Aliya with strands of her dark blue hair sticking to her face, a bright smile on her lips with a glass in her raised hand.
I scoff and drop my gaze to the text attached.
ALIYA: I'll have the fun for the both of us, boo.
Rolling my eyes, I toss the phone aside and grab my book, flipping to the earlier page.
I rub my hands down my arms from the blowing wind before dropping the book and moving from the bed to shut the window.
Halfway through, I stop when my eyes catch sight of a familiar figure and my mouth hangs open.
Emerson has a girl bent over his window while he slams into her from behind.
I should look away. I should close the damn curtains and stay away before he catches the sight of me, but I can't seem to move as he wraps a hand around her hair and pull back roughly; his thrusts getting rougher.
Move, Eva.
I clench my thighs against each other, my grip on the window getting tighter and a low moan slips through my parted lips as the girl's loud moans and screams fill my ears.
Emerson lifts his head and I freeze in my stand as he smirks at me. He raises an eyebrow as his hand moves to her neck and he thrusts faster. Not taking his eyes off mine, he leans forward and presses his lips to her bareback and my body shudders at the move.
Snapping out of the daze, I'm quick to shut my windows with shaky hands and fall to the ground with a racing heart.
Emerson Ford just caught me watching him pound into a girl.
And worse... My panties is drenched.
Emerson Ford is my enemy.
Emerson Ford is a guy I hate. I have hated his guts for years. He doesn't inflame any sensation from me other than resentment and irritation, so why the hell am I turned on from watching him fuck a girl?
Why am I rubbing my clit to the image of him pounding into that girl from behind? Why is my body trembling as I imagine myself in that position?
I try to convince myself this is because I haven't get laid in a while, yet I can't deny the fact I'm unable to get that image of him off my mind as I lay on my mattress with legs apart and finger rubbing my cunt.
"Fuck, " I hiss, throwing my head back as I rub the sweet spot between my thighs, trying so hard to find that particular spot that sends me over the edge.
"Think of something else, Eva. Think! Think of any guy you've fucked until now. Get your mind off Emerson Ford!" It doesn't work. I can't close that image and I move my hand from between my thighs frustratingly, laying on my side and pulling the duvet over my body.
The sexual noises have died down which means they are no longer in that position. Probably has her bent over his desk this time.
I groan and turn to the other side, pulling the duvet up to my neck as I stare at the wall and try to convince myself this is because I'm horny.
I'd never think of sleeping with Emerson Ford.
Ever.
EVA. "You look stressed. " Aliya remarks as she walks through the door and I nod, looking behind her. "Did she leave?" She nods and throws herself beside me. "She said to call her later. " "But you won't do that, will you?" I lift my brows at her and she smirks, saying, "No chance. " I laugh and shake my head. "Why aren't you on the bed?" She asks and I narrow my eyes. "The bed you just had that girl doing God knows what? Nah, I'll pass. " "We didn't do much. Do you want the details?" She cocks her brows and I frown. "What? No! Fuck off, Aliya. " She chuckles and moves to the bed. A sigh leaves her parted lips as she lays back and throws her head to the side. "I'm afraid she ruined me for everyone else, Evie. Janet was so damn good, but God help me– I couldn't stop picturing that girl while she had her tongue on
EVA. Being in the same room with Emerson Ford is never a good option. We can't stay around each other without having a clash, and this... I saw this coming the moment I walked through the door and sighted him with his friends. I haven't been in the same room with Emerson since we graduated high school. And that's right; I went to the same high school with the guy I hate so much. With the ever-flowing rage between us, being miles apart from each other is the best thing that could ever happen, but somehow someway– we always end up in the same area. The office. School... My house. This is a scenario that's occurred over too many times. Emerson staring down at me with that annoying smirk on his face, and me fuming in anger, wishing I could throw my fist in his face and restructure the sight I hate so damn much– not that I haven't tried several times.
EVA. I freeze in my stand and my eyes are wide as I watch Emerson's lip move against mine. This isn't something I expected, but there is a small fraction that anticipated this: The anger that was burning between us to be fueled into something else. Something unexplainable. Something delirious. I had set the trap, but I didn't think Emerson would take the bait. Emerson forces my mouth open and slides his tongue through my parted lips, pushing me hard against the elevator wall as his mouth ravages mine and his hand moves to the back of my head, pulling at my ponytail and tilting my head to the back; giving him more opening to plunder my mouth. Disbelief dances through my veins as Emerson Ford kisses me rough and hard in a way that reflects how it's always been between us. The warmth in my lower belly explodes into an unbearable sensation that
EVA. "Last night here. I'm gonna miss this place. " Aliya sighs as she stares around the club. "Why did you choose here though? I thought we were heading to the recently opened one downtown?" I ask her as I take a sip of my vodka and Aliya tries to avoid my gaze as she speaks, redness coating her flushed cheekbones. "No reason. I just thought—" "Thought you would see that nameless fuck of yours?" A mocking smile rests on my lips as I raise my brows at her and she rolls her eyes. "It was a instinct, okay?" I hum with a shrug. "Explains why you aren't out of your seat in search of someone to fuck. " "Shut up, Evie. " She groans and I laugh, taking another sip of my vodka. "You're on your seat, " she drops her gaze to my lap and I nod. "I think that's pretty obvious, Aliya. " "Why are you on your seat? I thought you were going to make the best out of your last day to party? You probably will go back to stuffing t
EVA. Hot liquid burns through me. A hot, unquenchable thirst that can surprisingly and unfortunately be quenched at this moment by him only. My hands find themselves in his jacket when Emerson pulls my lower lip in his mouth, and tug on it hard; enough to draw a string of pain and pleasure through me. My want explodes into a need, and a sound between a moan and a gasp slips through my parted lips as Emerson's hand move from my hair to my waist, pressing me hard against his chest. He pulls away for a split second, his breathing hard and loud, and mine is the same. Our eyes don't leave each other and our hands stay fitted to their spots before Emerson pushes me in again; his mouth fast, rough and aggressive against mine. He begins to move, pulling me with me, stopping on occasions to check his direction then finding his mouth on mine again. Lust has taken over my brain, and my entire body. Every. Fucking. Inch. Has been consu
EVA. "You have everything packed?" Mom asks again and a small smile tugs on my lips as I nod before she pulls me into a hug. "Oh, sweetheart. I will miss you so much. ""Mom, " I call her, a laugh slipping through my parted lips. "I'm not moving out of the state, mom. I'm only miles away. "She pulls back with a wide smile resting on her lips. "Does that mean I can come to visit whenever I want?"My smile turns into a frown and I shake my head in protest. "No fucking way. I told you both. I'll come home if I feel like it. You can't come to college. ""I was just teasing you, " she lifts her hand to my cheeks and pinches the skin lightly before dropping it to my side, a sigh leaving her mouth. "I know how much this means to you, and I respect that. ""Thank you, " I mouth and she smiles, her hands resting on either side of my face as she yanks me towards her. She presses her lips to my forehead before pulling back, "Be careful ou
EVA. A tall shirtless frame. A chest that's decorated with abs and muscles, mouthwatering and glowing before me. A chest that leads to a face on which a tiny smirks rests. Dark short hair complimented with brown eyes which stares back at me with amusement shining through the orbs. Out of everywhere I thought he could be, I never thought it would be here. No fucking way. There's no fucking way this is possible. The woman told me my roommate was a girl, just about my age so how the fuck did that get switched with him?"You look shocked to see me, Carson, " Emerson speaks, breaking the silence between us and I scowl at him. "What the fuck do you think you're doing?"He raises a mocking brow. "You're dumb, Carson? What the fuck does it look like I'm doing?" My gaze drops to the mug in his hand and I shake my head. "That's not what I fucking mean. What the hell are you doing here?" It's a stupid question. The man is chest naked in
EVA. "Try not to kill him. " Aliya laughs before she ends the call and I text the woman. ME: Hi. GoodDay, there's an issue with the apartment. I suppose you said my roommate will be a lady? I chew on my lips as I stare at the screen, waiting for a reply. Her response comes second later. APARTMENT: Oh right, Miss Carson. I'm extremely sorry to have not notified you instantly. The girl bailed and luckily, I got another roommate for you right after her. Is there any problem with your new roommate? Any problem? There's a lot of fucking problems! I hiss in annoyance and stop myself before I send something stupid. Tossing the phone to the side, I move out of bed. I slide my feet into the slippers and walk out of the room, moving towards the living room and frowning at the sight
Hey, Sweethearts!(^^) I'm back! Who've missed me and my daily notifications? Haha. So this is the announcement I promised to make last Friday. CRAVE is now out for your reading. There are currently three chapters available, and you can click on my author's icon to read or simply search for it. And while you're at that, please remember this is a new book and will be needing your support in terms of gems, comments and reviews. I hope you'll be willing to give that:-) That will be all, and this will possibly the last notification on Hatred. I'll see you guys on CRAVE. Btw, how many have reread while waiting for the new book? Haha.
We're at the end!!! Woohoo!Where do I begin? So far, Hatred turns out to be the most challenging book I've written. Not just with the trope and the content, but both emotionally and physically. There were a lot of challenges along the way, but I made it. WE made it, and I know you're probably tired of hearing me say this now, but I truly wouldn't be here without your support. Hatred isn't just a step out of the comfort zone for me, it's a book that I found myself so attached to along the way and one I learn a lot from, so thank you all, for letting me write Eva and Emerson's story, for believing in me and for staying with me until the very end. I still find it hard to believe at times when I look at how far I've come, and how many of you have travelled with me through this journey. I recognize some of you from my very first book, A Night With The Billionaire, and you have no idea how glad it warms my heart to see you up till now. Thank you very much for enduring and for staying. I
EVA. Emerson holds my hand as I stand in front of her grave, and I smile at him before I drop the flower I have in hand. Straightening up, I say, "Today is our birthday. Though, physically you aren't here to celebrate it with me. I know you're watching me with a smile, and I just want to thank you for being such an amazing sister. And for taking care of me the best way you could have ever. I've always thought it's selfish to celebrate and be happy on this day without you, but recently, I've found out that what's truly selfish is refusing to celebrate this day with beautiful memories of you, so I promise to never do that from now on. " With a heavy sigh, I speak my last words, "Thank you, sister. For your sacrifice; I'll never forget all that you did for me, and I'll always love you, Lena. Always. " I rest my head against him when Emerson moves to my side and slides a hand around my shoulder. "You did amazing, baby. " He whispers, and I hum, letting him stroke my hair before I g
ALIYA. "Hey!" I flinch at the loud sound behind me and Eva laughs as she moves around me to my side, holding me by my arm. "You're such a coward. " "Shut up, bitch. You scared me. " I throw her a frown, adjusting the strap of my bag and she wiggles her head as she straightens against me, "Why were you lost in thoughts?" "I was not. " I roll my eyes and she narrows hers at me, "Yes, you were. Were you thinking about Friday? You don't have to come up with something heavy, you know. " I smirk at her at the mention of her birthday. "No chance in hell, bitch. Everyone is coming. " She furrows her brows, "Aliya, what do you mean by that? Please tell me you didn't go overboard with this. " When I don't give her a response and keep the smirk on my face, she screams, "Aliya!" "Fuck sake, we're on campus. Tone it down for later. " I hiss as my eyes move across us to see people are barely paying us any attention. When I look back at her, I say, "I was just fucking with you. There's no one
EMERSON. "Give me that!" Eva whines as she strides inside the living room, and I laugh as I dodge her attempt to grab the plate from me. "Emerson. Give it to me. " She insists and I shake my head, "I let you have the two other slices; I'm not giving you the last one. "She frowns. "I thought you don't love cakes. You wouldn't have bought it if I didn't insist. ""But we did, and I'm having this one now. I'm not giving it to you, babe. " I state firmly and she drops next to me, "You're so petty. ""Not any lesser than you, Carson. " I tease her as she grabs the remote in front of her, and she shoves her middle finger in my face. Chuckling, I take my attention back to the plate and lift the fork to my mouth. I don't see it coming when Eva suddenly grabs my jaw, turning my head to her and biting the cake out of my mouth. She wipes the corner of my mouth with her forefinger, and slips it inside her mouth as she leans back with a grin on her face, "I told you I'd get it. ""That's chea
EMERSON. "Hey, " I whisper as she drops her head on my chest. "Hey. "Adjusting against my body, she says, "How do you feel?""Happy?" I say more of a question than an answer, then I settle with. "Happy. You're in my arms. "A smile crosses her face. "Emerson Ford. " She lifts her hands to my face. "You know how to make a girl feel good just at the brink of slumber. "I show a proud smile. "You. Just you. "She hums and drops her chin to brush her lips against my chest. Then she tips it again to meet my eyes, "But I meant the other way. ""I know, baby. " I say, circling my hands around her waist. "And I'm happy. Maybe it's because you're here. Maybe it's because I've finally come to accept that, and the fact that she'll always be with me, or maybe it's because everything else seems perfect. ""You have no idea how pleased I am to hear that. " She murmurs, pauses for the pass of a heartbeat, then adds, "Do you want me to come with you?"I groan loudly. "I'll very much like that, Eva.
EMERSON. I stand in front of the restroom as I pound on the door, calling out her name. "Eva!" It isn't until a few minutes of yelling and pounding with almost coming close to kicking the door down that she finally opens up, ducking her head through. "What do you think you're doing?" She whispers, and I yank her out of the room, steadying her in front of me as my eyes roam across her body. "Are you okay? What happened in there? Why did you scream?" "I'm fine, Em. " She says, and I slide my hands to her face, cupping her cheeks. "Are you sure? " I glance back at the door before I look back at her, "I heard a scream and thought—" "It wasn't mine. " She interrupts me and when I arch my brows, she says, "The scream wasn't mine. There's someone else in there. Having a moment, it seems. " "Oh, thank heavens. " I let out a breath of relief and snatch her to my chest, lowering one hand to her back with the one to the back of her head. "You were taking long, and I thought something happe
EMERSON. "Paige?" Eva repeats and I nod my head to the redhead who stands in front of our apartment, with her head turned to us now at the sound of the car. "She's here. " Eva says and I hum, unfastening my seatbelt. "I'm just as surprised as you are. I didn't expect to see her anytime soon. " Eva doesn't respond as we both get out of the car, and walk to her. "Hey, you both. I was just about to leave. " Paige says as we stop in front of her, and I slide my hand around Eva. She's looking more held up than the last time I saw her, with a smile complementing her features. "Eva. " She calls. "Paige. " Eva responds, letting my hands fall from her as they both hug, patting each other's back for a while before they pull away. "You look... Well, you look like you, blondie. " Paige remarks and Eva says, "I can say the same thing about you, redhead. " And they both laugh. A smile stretches to my face as I watch them converse without wanting to throw hands at each other. "Is everything a
EVA. "Baby. " Emerson whispers in the dark and I groan as I turn my ear away from him. He chuckles, "Are you still asleep?" "Yes. " I respond, gripping the pillow I'm pressed to without opening my eyes. "What time is it?" "It's late now. " His voice is closer as he answers and I force my eyes open, twisting my head to meet his eyes and he's leaning over my body from behind. "Hey, beautiful. " He smiles as he moves his head closer to press his lips to my nose and I hum, my eyes moving down his body when he pulls away and he's still naked. "Why are you up?" I ask him when I meet his eyes again and he collapses next to me, wrapping his arms around me. I remove my hands from the pillow to push back against him, moaning at the press of his cock to my ass. "I went to the bathroom, and realized it's dark. I've been awake for a while. Watching you. " His voice sends chills through my body as he sticks his face in the curve of my neck, inhaling my scent; no doubt I smell of him and I mi
