ZAIA. “Zaia!” Valerie turns back to me the moment the women leave the bathroom. “Sorry, I got distracted.” I shake my head, trying to clear it. “Are you really ok? I know this is a lot to take in, but I really do need you to listen,” Valerie whispers urgently. “I know Val, I’m sorry.” I reply. “
“I will wait for you, Zaia. Take as much time as you need. I’m not going anywhere.” I open my mouth to tell him I am not looking to move on when he places a finger on my lips and shakes his head. “Don’t reject me now… I said I’ll wait… because I am ready to, whether that’s weeks… months… or even y
I tug at the door, and it pulls open. Not locked? My heart skips a beat. Who was so careless as to leave it unlocked! Especially when we have so many guests around. Even if it’s just a public hall, the staff needs to be more careful. I will mention it to the head organiser tomorrow. Shaking my h
SEBASTIAN. From the moment she stepped into the hall, she took my breath away. She looked as beautiful as ever, Zaia was always the one that stood out. Even back when other girls fawned over me, she was in her own world, planning her dreams and talking about her ambitions but even then, she won th
SEBASTIAN. Both women turn to me, relief flooding Annalise’s face whilst Zaia’s anger fades a little. Her face paling and her chest rising and falling rapidly before she looks down at Annalise. “I…I didn’t push her, she fell herself!” she says. My heart squeezes as I look at her, tilting my head.
No. I don’t believe it. She tries to pull free, but I refuse to let her go. “Look me in the eye and say that again.” I whisper. Her eyes flash as she glares up at me. “This child is not yours.” This time she doesn’t bat an eyelid as she holds my gaze and with those words, it feels as if somethin
ZAIA. The entire ride home, I’m dead silent. I don’t know what to make of it. Everything that happened has hit me like a tonne of bricks. Atticus knew who I was… I knew I should have changed my first name! I should have worn contacts or changed my hair colour! We were too careless. Goddess, I’m s
When do things get better? “Just get some rest. Things will be back to normal tomorrow,” he says, as our eyes meet. I look up at him and although a part of me wants to believe that, my mind says there are too many red flags. From here on out, I need to be smart going forward. “Good night Atticus
I kiss her neck, nibbling teasingly on her skin, perfect… smooth… slender… She whimpers, her entire body reacting to my touch as she turns to face me. Our eyes meet, and she blushes as she grips my biceps before running her fingers down them, and then she’s fiddling with the buttons on my shirt, her
SEBASTIANOne moment I’m kissing her, the next I’m on my feet, pulling her with me as I cup her face and deepen that kiss. She tastes… like perfection.I groan, feeling my cock harden in my pants.Fuck, she’s doing things to me that no one else ever could.“Shall we get out of here?” I whisper. Her
ZAIAHe dropped me off last night promising to call me, but the day has come and gone and nothing. Maybe he realised I wasn’t suited for him.“Zaia, what is wrong with you, dear?” Mom scolds me.I look up from where I realise I’ve overpoured the juice in my glass. “Oh, I’m so sorry!” I exclaim as I
ZAIAThe weather is awful tonight, but there’s no one to pick me up. I tried to call Mom, but I couldn’t get through to her. The traffic is so bad I wasn’t able to get a taxi in this rain either, so I decided to return home on foot. I was at least able to message Mom to let her know I’m on my way ba
The rain begins pouring down as Annalise continues to drink the bottle she’s brought along. She’s pretty drunk, her words are slurring as she chatters on about something I have no interest in.The traffic is a nightmare, endless streams of red taillights stretching far ahead. I grit my teeth, wishin

“What’s wrong?” I ask sharply, closing the door behind me, surprised when Zaia lifts the trail of my dress so it doesn’t touch the bathroom floor. Neither of us exchanges a word as we look at Valerie, who is battling with herself. “Oh, I don’t know. Never mind. Let’s get back to our men.” She trie
