"I told you not to drop me here. " I hiss at Emerson as I unfasten my seatbelt before I turn to grab my bag from the backseat.
"And who are you trying to hide from?" He queries when I move back to my seat.
"I'm not hiding. It just feels... Weird?" I tell him as I duck my head from his gaze and Emerson drops his hand to my chin, tipping my head to meet his eyes. "Then you should get real with it because this isn't a one-time thing. "
"It is. You won't be taking me tomorrow. I don't care what you use. "
"Is that a challenge?" He raises a daring brow, the corners of his lips curving when I hum before I push forward to press my lips to his. "Take it as you feel. " I tell him when I pull back, attempting to move out but Emerson's hand slides to the back of my neck and he takes my lips in his again, not stopping the luscious attack of his lips and his tongue till

EVA."I think I might have a problem, " Aliya complains as she drops to the seat in front of me and I shut my laptop to focus my gaze on her. "What's it?""I might have or might have not told Sage that I'm getting tired of our relationship. " She says as she drops her bag to the side before tilting forward and I furrow a brow, "What? What does that mean?""I don't know, " she sighs. "I don't know what's wrong with me. ""Is that how you feel?" I ask her and she nods. "It suddenly feels too much; like I'm being boxed in or something and I hate that feeling. ""What was her reaction when you told her?""She walked out on me. " A frown covers her face as she stares down at her hands. "I told her I needed a break to rethink our relationship and she just walked out... Without a word. ""I'm not surprised, " I let out a chuckle and she li

EMERSON. "Eva!" I call, attempting to rush after her as I watch her walk through the door, but a sudden grip on my wrist stops me and I turn around to see Paige; irritation flowing through me at the sight of her and the shit she just pulled. "Emerson—" she starts with a shaking voice, and I jerk her hold from my wrist, glaring at her as I speak, "What the fuck is wrong with you? Why the fuck did you do that?" "I–" she starts with a hiccup. "I'm sorry. I just– I didn't know what to do. I was there and you were here, and I needed you. I needed you to–" "You needed me and I was fucking here! I was here, Paige. I was doing all I could to be the comfort you needed and you thought it was okay to cross the line?" I raise a brow, my breath coming out in heavy pants and she shakes her head as she attempts to step closer, but one glare from me to her leg movement stops it. She swallows before she opens her mouth, "It wasn't enough, Emerson. It was never going to be enough. I needed more.

EMERSON.I'm quick to raise my head from the steering wheel at the vibration of my phone, and I move over the divider to grab it; the previous disappointment washing through me when I see it's a text from Hanna, and not who I expected."Where are you, Eva? Please, don't do this to me. " I mumble under my breath as I scroll to the last text I sent her. Delivered, but left unread.DIVA: You're making me fucking worried about you. You can't just do this, Carson. Just come back, please. I'll head out if you want me to; I just need to make sure you're safe.I hit send before my eyes drift to the time and it reads eleven."Maybe she went back home. " I give into that thought, and throw my phone to the side to start the engine as I drive in the direction of home.I almost trip over my seatbelt as I attempt to climb out of the car.

PAIGE. Blondie's eyes go wide after my palm makes contact with her cheek, not exactly feeling the pleasure I hoped it would bring. "What the fuck did you just do?" She let out as the books drop to her feet and I say, "I smacked you and trust me, I want to do so much more. " "Bitch, who the fuck do you think you are?" She snaps as she lunges towards me and grabs me by the arm. She pushes me till my back is to the wall and before she can lift her hand, I say, "Emerson told me to disappear out of his life. " The motion of her hand stills but she stays rooted to the spot. "Look here. I know what you think of me. I'm the one who's trying to take someone who isn't mine, " I let out and Eva loosens her hold on me, taking a step back. I heave a sigh before I continue, "It's not what you think and I'm not here for what you think I'm here for. Emerson and I... We share a bond. To me at least, we do. He was there when I needed someone; he was always there. " "He was there for you as a g

ALIYA. How does one love? How do you fall in love with that person and decide you want to keep that moment forever? How does one stay in love without wanting to leave? These are the thoughts that are always on my mind ever since that day. Ever since she ran out of my room with tears in her eyes and I watch her leave, because I know going after her will do nothing but worsen the pain that I've caused. The pain that I couldn't hold back building. My name is Aliya Collins and I have a problem. I do not know how to love and stay in love. At first, I thought maybe it was because I've never been in a relationship, but after being and breaking out of love – I realised that never was the problem. It was vice versa. It isn't that I couldn't love because I wasn't in a relationship; I wasn't in a relationship because I couldn't love. But things changed from that moment I met her. Have you ever looked into someone's eyes, and thought: oh, I do want to know this person more than this. I

EVA. "I might be home late tonight, are you alright with that?" Emerson asks as I unfasten my seatbelt. I turn to him and say, "Why not? Are you leaving campus early?""Yes. I have to head over to Jaxon for some things. " He tells me and I nod, tearing my gaze away from his to grab my bag. "Is that okay with you?" Emerson inquires when I drop my gaze back to him and I nod, "Of course. Gives me more alone time to myself without you sniffing your face into my ass. ""Oh, babe, " he chuckles as he leans over the divider to grab my chin. "Have I ever mentioned how adorable you sound when you try to hide the truth from me?""I don't think I need to hide if it's—" Emerson's lips on mine shut me up and he stays for five seconds before he pulls back, "Make me dinner before I get back, yeah?""What am I? Your wife?" I snort out a laugh as I slap his hand from my chin and he sinks back in his seat with a knowing smile on his face. "No, you're something more. That sounds too low in comparison.

EVA. The air between us has altered and my fists are folded as a measure to not slip over the edge with my nose flaring in irritation as I stare at Emerson, who stands two steps away from me with frustration clear in his eyes– no doubt that it comes nowhere as close to mine. "I can't believe you, Eva. What is it that you want to hear from me?" He speaks and I say, "What is it that you're hiding?""I'm not hiding anything—" He starts, but I cut in, my voice loud as I part my lips. "Stop fucking lying! You don't get to do that, Emerson. You don't get to lie right to my fucking face! You're keeping something from me. It's visible and I want to know it!""So you think I'm hiding something from you because I don't want you using my phone behind my back or because I didn't take a call in your presence? Can you hear yourself, Eva? You're calling me a liar because I want my privacy?" Disbelief laced through his voice as he scoffs. "No. Don't. Don't do that. Don't turn this on me. This isn'

SAGE. Whoever said love is the greatest emotion of all and the best thing that could ever happen to anyone in their lifetime has got a fucked up viewpoint, because love is in fact the worst thing that could ever happen to anyone. We've all been taught to know the promising sides of love; the happiness and fulfilment it could bring. We've been forced to seek it out in our lives, when we should be staying away from it. Everyone says the good things about love, but no one said the horrible sides. The pain? The heartache? The way it easily fucks your entire being, messing with your mentality and your health? No one taught us about that. No one taught us that love would give us a slice of heaven, and a whole tide of hell. No one taught us that love will turn out to be your biggest catastrophe. Love doesn't heal; It hurts. It doesn't put you back together, it breaks you into pieces and leaves you to remain in that state. Being in love is one of the biggest regrets that I've ever had

Hatred With Benefits Final Author's Note
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.

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
