Chapter 115 - So you can fight?

last update Last Updated: 2024-10-27 16:46:06

Nathan and I sit across from each other in the small café on the corner of campus, away from the prying eyes of everyone at school. It’s one of the few places where I feel like I can breathe. After everything that’s happened—especially this morning in the parking lot—I need some sort of escape, something to take my mind off the whispers and the stares.

Nathan, for all his calm and easygoing nature, has become something of an anchor for me, even though I’ve never really understood why he’s so… different. Different from Liam, different from all of them. And today, I feel like I need answers. I’ve been dodging too much of my own fear and curiosity.

He’s picking at his food, a half-smile playing on his lips like he's got all the time in the world. Meanwhile, my thoughts are racing a mile a minute, swirling around everything I know—and don’t know—about his world. Liam’s world. The other world that I’m somehow tangled up in now.

I lean forward, propp

  • I'm in love with my gangster boyfriend   Chapter 116 - Disappointed

    Nathan pulls up in front of my house, and I’m just about to thank him when I see Liam leaning against his car across the street. His hands are shoved deep into his pockets, head down, but as soon as we pull in, he looks up, eyes narrowing with a determination that makes my stomach flip. I’m still caught off guard by his presence, despite knowing it’s only a matter of time before he shows up again, demanding something I can’t give.“Looks like you have company,” Nathan mutters, eyeing his brother with a mixture of annoyance and caution. I give him a nod, hoping he doesn’t sense the dread tightening my chest.“Thanks, Nathan,” I say, giving him a small, grateful smile as I reach for the door handle. I don’t want him to see how rattled I am, so I do my best to seem calm as I step out of the car.Liam’s already crossing the street, his stride brisk, purposeful. He doesn’t even greet me, just looks from me to Nathan, and then back again.“Can I talk to you, Celeste?” His voice is low, but

  • I'm in love with my gangster boyfriend   Chapter 117- She's mine

    The pub is dim and familiar, with the hum of quiet conversations and clinking glasses around me. It’s not my usual scene on a Monday, but right now, I need a place to disappear for a bit. The cold beer in my hand is barely enough to distract me from the painful thought that’s been eating at me since I pulled away from Celeste’s house. She didn’t just say no. She looked at me like I was something to avoid.I take another long sip, feeling the cold bitterness slide down my throat. I’d half expected her to turn me down, but I thought there’d still be something there, some sign she still cared. Instead, she looked like she wanted to be anywhere but near me, like I was a problem she’d rather not deal with.The bartender nods at me as he passes, and I give him a half-hearted nod back. Normally, I’d be in here with Travis or a couple of other guys from the crew, talking shop or running through the latest intel on Vince. But toni

  • I'm in love with my gangster boyfriend   Chapter 118 - The best of you

    I catch Vince’s reflection in the glass before he reaches me. He’s strutting in, that smug grin plastered on his face, the kind of grin that says he thinks he’s already won. I don’t move, keeping my eyes fixed on my drink as he saunters over, hands tucked casually into his jacket pockets like he owns the place. The chatter in the pub quiets down to a hush, the way it does when a storm’s rolling in.Vince stops just in front of my table, and I finally look up, meeting his gaze with a cool stare. I don’t bother hiding the distaste in my eyes."Liam," he greets, voice dripping with fake warmth. "Been a while, hasn’t it?"I don’t respond, letting him fill the silence as he always does. Vince enjoys hearing his own voice too much to stop.“Shame you’re so alone here,” he says, looking around. “But maybe I could offer a little conversation. Actually… I wanted to ask you something.&rd

  • I'm in love with my gangster boyfriend   Chapter 119 - Eggs and pancakes

    The smell of frying eggs and bacon drifts into my room, pulling me from sleep. I rub my eyes and sit up, squinting as the early morning light filters through my curtains. This isn’t just any breakfast smell, though; it’s an entire feast. I slip out of bed, hesitant, and pad down the hall toward the kitchen, my stomach twisting.When I reach the doorway, I see her—Mom, standing over the stove, humming softly to herself as she flips pancakes. The kitchen counters are covered with dishes, bowls of fruit, eggs scrambled just the way I like them, toast piled high on a plate, and even freshly squeezed orange juice. It’s like a picture out of a family magazine, the kind where everyone is glowing, content, and happy.And yet, every part of me is tense.“Morning, sweetheart!” She looks up, her eyes bright, her smile even brighter. There’s an ease in her movements, a lightness in her face I haven’t seen in ages. Normally, I&

    The gym is packed with students, all crammed together on the bleachers. The Principal stands at the front, adjusting his glasses and tapping the mic to get our attention. I’m half-listening, feeling the buzz of anticipation ripple through the room. Exams start in two days, and after that, an eight-week summer break.Nathan nudges me gently with his shoulder. “You ready?” he whispers, his voice low so no one else hears.I glance at him, giving a small shrug. “Ready as I’ll ever be, I guess.” But it’s more than exams that are weighing on my mind. Liam. Vince. My mom’s odd behavior this morning. It’s like I’m balancing a thousand things in my head, each one demanding attention.The Principal clears his throat again, and I focus on his voice as he lays out the usual exam rules. Phones are off and away during tests, and there is no talking or wandering around. Cheating means automatic failure, and apparently, they've got extra proctors this year to “ensure academic i

    Monday starts like the echo of a bell—sharp and startling, pulling me into the week with relentless force. I’m sitting in the exam hall, watching the minute hand tick forward, each second dragging me deeper into some kind of surreal fog. There’s nothing but the paper in front of me, my pen scratching as I fight to pull memories from lectures, textbooks, and endless pages of notes that now blur in my mind. When the bell finally rings, it’s like surfacing from underwater, gasping as I walk out, numb, dazed.

  • I'm in love with my gangster boyfriend   Chapter 122 - We have to Celebrate

    Nathan shouts it loud enough for half the school to hear: “Let’s go get drunk!” His grin is unstoppable, a mischievous glint lighting up his eyes. It’s so out of character that I laugh in spite of myself, covering my mouth. People pause mid-step, looking our way, curiosity practically buzzing through the air. I try to wave it off, whispering, “No, absolutely not.” But I’m smiling too, and he knows it."We have to celebrate!" he insists, as if this is non-negotiable. I shake my head, laughing, but I’m already opening the passenger door to his car. His excitement is contagious, and after the week we’ve had, I could use a bit of impulsive fun, even if it’s just coffee.We drive toward our usual spot, a cozy café with big windows overlooking the park and coffee that’s borderline magical. It feels like the perfect escape. I watch the sun glint off the storefronts as we pull up, feeling lighter than I h

    Tamrin crosses the café with an unreadable expression, her eyes darting between me and Nathan. She stops just short of our table, and I can’t tell if she’s nervous or just annoyed."Mind if I join you?" she asks, and her voice is softer than I expected.Nathan leans back, his lips curling into a smirk. “Back to yell at me some more?” His tone is light, but the words feel heavy, hinting at something I didn’t know had happened between them. I glance at him, then at Tamrin, searching for some kind of explanation.She rolls her eyes, but there’s a slight pinkness in her cheeks. “I didn’t scream at you, Nathan,” she says, though her voice is defensive, and it makes me wonder just what I missed.I can’t help it—I look at Tamrin, silently asking her for an explanation, but she just shakes her head, clearly unwilling to dig up whatever tension had passed between them. Before I can press her,

  • I'm in love with my gangster boyfriend   Chapter 207 - In the dark

    The sound of gunfire explodes through the night, deafening and relentless. A machine gun—no, multiple—rips through the air outside, drowning everything else out. I hear men shouting, screaming, and then the screaming turns into something else. Agony. Terror.I clamp my hands over my ears, pressing myself further into the corner of the closet, trying to disappear. My body shakes violently, my breath coming in shallow gasps as I rock back and forth. I squeeze my eyes shut and whisper a prayer under my breath, over and over."Please, God. Please, God. Please, God."The walls tremble with the force of the fight happening outside. Glass shatters somewhere. Heavy footsteps storm through the house. More gunshots. More yelling. I don’t kn

    I wake up with a start, my heart thundering in my chest. My breath comes in ragged gasps, and for a moment, I can’t place where I am. I sit up quickly, expecting to see someone in the room with me—someone coming to hurt me, to take me again—but when my eyes adjust to the dim light, the room is empty.Just the silence.I look around, the weight of everything pressing down on me. This place—the house where Trevor has kept me locked up for weeks—has become a prison. It’s always quiet, too quiet. The only sounds are the distant hum of the outside world that I can’t reach, the creaks of the house settling, and my own restless thoughts.The darkness beyond the window is thick and consuming, the kind of darkness that swallows up the last remnants of hope. But tonight, something is different. Something feels off.I strain my ears, listening closely. There’s a faint sound, like the whisper of something moving through

  • I'm in love with my gangster boyfriend   Chapter 205 -The air is cold

    The air is cold, but I barely feel it. My fingers flex at my sides, itching for the moment I get to wrap them around Trevor’s throat.A few meters away, the house stands in the darkness, barely lit by the moon. Celeste is in there. I can feel it, like some invisible tether between us. She’s so close I can almost smell her—vanilla and something soft, something warm.Nathan steps up beside me. I don’t have to look at him to know what he’s thinking. We’ve run through this plan a hundred times. We both breathe slowly, measured, in sync. If we let the rage take over now, we’ll lose. We need to do this right.Behind us, the rest of my men are waiting, silent shadows in the night. Five hundred of them. A small army, but that’s what it takes when yo

  • I'm in love with my gangster boyfriend   Chapter 204 - Call off the dogs

    Nathan and I are staring at the screen, watching the dot move. Every second it inches closer to its destination, my pulse beats harder, my hands clench tighter. I should be in my car already, speeding toward her. I should be ending this.But I can’t rush this.One mistake, and Celeste might never make it out alive.I take a slow breath, forcing myself to think. Trevor’s still pissed about today—I saw it in his eyes, the way his mask slipped for just a second. He’s getting sloppy. That’s why Tamrin was able to slip one on him, why he hasn’t even realized she did. He thinks he still has control, but we’re the ones pulling the strings now."One more day," I say, more to myself than to Nathan.

  • I'm in love with my gangster boyfriend   Chapter 203 - Tracking

    My hands are trembling so hard I can barely hold the phone. My chest feels tight, like there isn’t enough air in the room, but I force myself to breathe. In and out. In and out. I can’t fall apart now. Not when I finally made a move.Sadie sits next to me, watching silently. She hasn’t asked a single question since I took her phone, but she doesn’t have to. I know she’s thinking them. I know she wants to yell at me, shake me, demand answers. But she doesn’t. Maybe she knows I don’t have the strength to explain right now.Nathan answers on the second ring. His voice is sharp, alert. “Who’s this?”“It’s Tamrin.” My voice barely comes out, but I swallow the lump in my throat and force myself to continue. “I hid my phone in Trevor’s car so you can track him. I’ll send you the details now.”Silence. Then a sharp breath on the other end. “You—” he starts, but I don’t give him a chance to question me. I end the call and immediately go to the tracking app on my phone, sending the location str

    The drive back feels like it lasts forever, and every minute of it makes my stomach churn with dread. Trevor’s words hang in the air, thick and suffocating. He doesn’t stop talking, doesn’t stop reminding me of everything he’s capable of, and how easily he could ruin my life if I even think about crossing him. Every threat is sharp, like a blade cutting through my chest. He tells me he will kill me, kill my family, that no one would ever know what happened to Celeste or that I was involved.The fear grips me harder with each passing second. It feels like I’m suffocating in this car, trapped in this nightmare I can’t escape. I can’t say anything. I just nod, keep my eyes on the road, my breath shallow, praying he’ll just let me go. But it never comes. The torment doesn’t stop.Finally, when the car pulls up in front of my house, I feel my body go stiff. Trevor grabs my thigh, his fingers digging in deep, hard enough to bruise. The pain flares up immediately, sharp and relentless, and I

  • I'm in love with my gangster boyfriend   Chapter 2001 - Terrified

    I’m sitting in Trevor’s car, my hands trembling so badly I can barely keep them on my lap. My head is pounding, each beat of my heart sending sharp pangs of pain through my chest. I don’t know what he’s going to do to me. I can barely look him in the eye, even though he’s sitting right next to me, his cold presence suffocating me in this small space.How did I end up here? I can’t even remember when it started to go so wrong. I thought he was different. I thought he was charming, charismatic, someone who could make me feel like I mattered. I let myself believe he cared. I even slept with him—let him do things to me that I’m ashamed of now. I wish I could take it all back. I wish I could somehow erase the last few months of my life.But I can’t. I’m trapped.I don’t know when I started to see the darkness in him, when it became clear that Trevor was a monster. I was too blind, too naïve to see

  • I'm in love with my gangster boyfriend   Chapter 200 - What do you know?

    The car rolls to a stop in front of the abandoned building. The windows are boarded up, and the air around here smells stale, like no one’s been within a hundred miles for years. I park with precision, the crunch of gravel beneath the tires settling in my ears. Tamrin doesn’t say anything, but I can see her eyes darting around, her body stiffening with every passing second. She’s terrified, and it’s exactly what I want.I turn to look at her, my gaze dark and unrelenting. There’s a moment of silence, thick and suffocating, before I speak.“Tamrin,” I say, my voice low and commanding. “What happened when you came back?”She looks at me, trying to hide the fear behind her eyes, but I see through it. “What do you mean?” she says, trying to play dumb, but I can hear the tremor in her

  • I'm in love with my gangster boyfriend   Chapter 199 - Pay you a visit

    I pull up to Tamrin’s place, the tires crunching softly as I stop in the driveway. My hands tighten on the steering wheel for a moment, the anger from my conversation with Liam still simmering beneath my skin. The asshole had the nerve to think he could intimidate me. It’s all a game to him, but he doesn't understand what I’m capable of.I pick up my phone, dialing Tamrin’s number. It rings a few times before she picks up.“Yeah?” Her voice is tentative, like she already knows something's wrong.“Come outside,” I tell her, making sure my voice is low and controlled.There’s a long pause on the other end, but I wait. I know she’ll come.
