His Steel Princess (His Broken Princess #2) 19. Beautiful Date
There are so many secrets with so many explanation, I didn't know from where to start. ~ A. Gupta.VIOLETMY Mind kept going back to what that woman had said to me and even though Cole had asked me again and again what was bothering me, I couldn't bring myself to answer him. For some reason that woman’s words stuck with me and sent me back to the time when Cole had refused to take me with him when I had asked him to. I wondered not for the first time, if the difference in our worlds was really something I should focus on. Because Cole out of Willow Creek was a different person, and with each passing minute that though was just crystallising more clearly.As the car slowed and I focused back on our surroundings, mainly the imposing figure of the building we just stopped before I realised where we were. Surprise and awe filled me so much that for a moment I just stared at the building even as Cole stepped out, opened the back door and then a few minutes later he was rounding the car t
His Steel Princess (His Broken Princess #2) 20. Yes or No?
Half truth is a whole lie. ~ ProverbVIOLET Kîlling someone in cold blood was a crime, I told myself again and again as the wîtch I had already erased from my memory materialized in a form of a floating silver dress and overbearing perfume as she all but threw herself at Cole. “Oh my god, It’s really you!” Tara squealed, making me want to cover my ears as she hugged him and wretch my guts out at the way her arms wrapped tight around him like she had every right to do so. To his benefit, Cole looked like he’d like to be anywhere but here but it wasn’t what was slowly dripping ice in my veins. It was the way she touched him when he broke the hug. She didn’t let him go completely, her hand on his arm, her fingers slipping inside his jacket touching his chest like she had done it countless times before. Like she was already familiar with his body. “Tara.” Cole didn’t sound welcome but he was also not at ease. He took her hand and stepped back. “I’m surprised to see you here.” He said, n

He is like an unhealed wound, much worse than the others I endured. Because this one came from the man I loved. ~ A. Gupta.COLE“Now what’s this?” I asked, running a palm down my face, because even as I asked I knew what it was about.“You know.” My mother replied, taking a sip of her drink.I met her gaze. “You know that I won’t go with it then why are you—”“It’s been over a month now, Nicholas. How long is this going to go on?” Her questions were valid from a mother’s perspective, I could see the concern lining her eyes. But I couldn't give up, no matter how long it takes. And something tells me it will take longer than any of us want.I looked away, thinking back to my situation with Violet back in Willow Creek. She had completely cut me off since that night at the museum. She had even appointed Alex and Maddox to keep me away from her and as much as I hated her friendship with Alex, I knew Maddox would be the hard one to bend. He took his duty as her brother way too seriously.
His Steel Princess (His Broken Princess #2) 22. You hurt me first
Losing him was blue, like I'd never knownMissing him was dark gray, all aloneForgetting him was like trying to knowSomebody you never metBut loving him was red~ Taylor Swift (Red).VIOLETAVOIDING him has been nothing short of the most difficult task of my life. But no matter how much I ignored him, took pains to not even glance in his direction, I was always aware of him. But today was different because he wasn’t here and I felt his absence deep in my bones like someone thrust me back into the past when every cell in my body had begged the universe to send him back to me. And even though I was aware of the tiny part of me that looked for him and feared that he had finally given up, I still couldn’t come to terms with the fact that someone else, no not someone else, Tara touched him. That he was with her. He hadn’t given me a simple answer of yes and no to my question, so what else could it be.“Hey...” Kevin slid in the seat opposite me placing a steamy bowl in front of me.“Hi,
His Steel Princess (His Broken Princess #2) 23. I'm not lying, princess
Guilt consumes you even in your happiest moments. It’s like that dark cloud that covers the sun and stops its light from reaching you. ~ A. Gupta.COLE“Let me go, Cole.” She demanded, trying hard to get out of my hold.“Never,” I whispered as I pressed my lips against her throbbing pulse and took a deep inhale of her scent. Closing my eyes, I savored the feel of her in my arms and how her soft body pressed against mine. God. What I wouldn’t give to kiss and lick every inch of her. But before I could give into my hunger, I picked her up and walked to the freezer where I sat her down on top of it. “What do you think you are doing?” She asked, looking at me with distrustful eyes.It hurt to see that look in her eyes when she had always looked at me like I was the only person who she trusted in the whole wide world. But then again, I did it to us. I was the one responsible for her distrust. I stepped closer and despite her anger her knees parted to make space for me. “C-Cole?”I cupped
His Steel Princess (His Broken Princess #2) 24. A bunch of hypocrites
Actions speak louder than words. ~ Proverb.VIOLET“So... Let me get this straight,” Alex drawled as he held up a finger and began, “He told you about his not yet dead ex girlfriend.” As I nodded, he held up another finger, “And that he didn’t want to fall for you,” Another finger went up as he recited, “And he felt guilty when he fell for you.”“Pretty much.” I muttered, still annoyed with him that he locked me in with Cole. I’d have bruised his face if he hadn’t ducked at the last second but at least his foot was there to stomp on.“What’s the problem?” He asked now, nudging my shoulder.We were sitting on a car which was beyond repair, I had taken out my rage on it earlier and when I got tired I chose to sit in the silence of the forest with Alex, because only he could be as relaxed as he had made me in this eery setting. I didn’t think any sane person would want to spend their time alone in the middle of a forest on a moonless night and with trees whispering like we were in a ho
His Steel Princess (His Broken Princess #2) 25. Isn't it frustrating
Nights are rarely for sleeping,it's the time when our hearts come alive with the feelings we've managed to supress in the light of the day. Be it pain, sadness and overwhelming desire for someone else, or in most rare cases happiness for being alive. ~ A. Gupta.VIOLETSomething has changed. I could feel it in the way he looked at me. His gaze was just as possessive as before but now there was such intensity in his sherry eyes that made me feel hot and nervous. It even affected me more than usual that I had somehow became quieter even with people I trusted and called my family. Every time he was close I felt like something was about to happen and I wouldn't be prepared for it. But so far he hasn’t done anything, nor he had said something which was a little odd considering how desperately he was trying to explain himself the other day but now he seemed like he couldn’t care less. If it was reverse psychology, I was guilty of admitting that it was quite working.I shook my head off th
His Steel Princess (His Broken Princess #2) 26. Only mine
If you're mine you can't be anyone else's. ~ A. Gupta VIOLETLast night’s memories faded back as a soft knock on the door intruded our small group, making Bree and Mad pause in their conversation as the door opened and Dominic stepped inside. I didn’t know why I did it but the way the tense silence stretched, I signed to break it up, ‘Oh, daddy is here.’ If Dom had been a little more perceptive and had let his brain work for what it was meant to be, he’d have known the double meanings behind my sentence. But the way he looked at me, I knew he didn’t get the hidden truth of my words. Cole chuckled from behind me, making me shiver with the way his deep voice rolled down my back. I so wanted to turn around and look at him, but I held myself in check as I heard him question, “Do I need to translate that?”Dom grumbled something under his breath. He had started to look more like a human being than he did before in Kiara’s absence which reminded me of what Alex had said about Maddox and
