Chapter 117- She's mine
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 17:19:23The 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 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

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
Last Updated : 2024-11-01I'm in love with my gangster boyfriend Chapter 121 - Exam week is like a blurry dream
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.
Last Updated : 2024-11-03I'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,

The silence is thick, but it’s not uncomfortable—at least not for everyone else, from what I can tell. Liam is sitting across from me, and I can feel the weight of his gaze, though he’s not looking at me. His eyes are trained on Celeste, a steady, unwavering stare that makes me feel like I’m witnessing something private, something I shouldn’t be part of.I glance at Nathan, who’s toying with his phone, but I don’t miss the way he keeps cutting looks in my direction. He’s been doing it ever since I walked up to them, like he’s suspicious of every word I might say or every move I might make. I get it, I guess. We haven’t exactly been on good terms since... well, since I yelled at him the other day. But I’d been angry, hurt. All I’d wanted was to make sense of why Celeste had shut me out.My gaze drifts back to Liam, who still hasn’t stopped looking at her, and I try to understand what I’m
Last Updated : 2024-11-06I'm in love with my gangster boyfriend Chapter 125 - She might have crossed a line
I can feel my stomach twisting as I sit there, watching Liam and Celeste with this gnawing feeling that I’m not understanding something huge. There’s an undeniable tension between them, but it’s nothing like I thought it was. And the longer I sit here, the more frustrated I feel, like I’m the only one on the outside looking in on some inside joke.The words come out before I can stop them, sharper than I mean them to be. “Do you… do you miss my cousin? Presley?”I know I’m crossing a line, but I can’t help it. If what I’m seeing is true, if Celeste and Liam are actually… well, if there’s something between them, then she’s not just keeping secrets—she’s betraying Presley, her friends, everyone. I know my question sounds bitter, but right now, I don’t care.Liam’s expression doesn’t falter. He just looks at me with a half-smile, friendly but… colder

I wake up with a feeling of something being… off.Then I see him.Trevor.Sitting at the edge of the bed, watching me.A wave of disgust rolls through me so fast I nearly gag. My entire body tenses, my muscles locking in place. I don't move. I don't speak. I just stare at him, waiting, daring him to say something. If he thinks I’m going to cower, he has another thing coming.His lips curl into a slow, unsettling smile. "You're very beautiful when you're asleep."I frown at him, and his smile widens. The kind of smile that says he’s enjoying this—enjoying getting under my skin.I don’t react. I refuse to give him that satisfaction.

I don’t know what the hell I’m doing.Maybe it’s the look on Nathan’s face—tight jaw, unreadable eyes, the kind of expression that makes it clear he knows something the rest of us don’t. Maybe it’s the way Tamrin has been acting, the way she flinches at everything and refuses to answer when I ask about Celeste.Or maybe it’s just the fact that Celeste isn’t here, and no one seems to have a real answer for why.So yeah, I might be crazy for chasing down Nathan Miller in the middle of a crowded hallway, calling his name like I’ve lost my damn mind. But I don’t care.He looks back at me when I call him, but he doesn’t stop walking. He just slows down slightly, like he’s debating whether I’m worth his tim

Trevor thinks he’s won.He leans against the desk, arms crossed, his mouth curled into that smug smile that makes my skin crawl. He thinks he has me right where he wants me. Weak. Hopeless. Dependent on his mercy.But he doesn’t know me at all.I keep my breathing steady, my expression blank, as I listen to Liam’s voice crackle through the phone. He knows. He knows I’m missing. And if Nathan spoke to Tamrin, it means they’re looking for me.That thought should terrify me—Trevor will hurt them if they get too close—but instead, it gives me hope.I knew Liam would come for me.The question

I know something is wrong with Tamrin.She hasn’t said a word all period, hasn’t even pretended to listen when Presley started complaining about her nails breaking during warm-ups. And when I asked her about Trevor—just casually, just to see her reaction—she practically bit my head off before storming off.That’s not normal.Tamrin was obsessed with Trevor. Just last week, she couldn’t shut up about him. And now she won’t even say his name.And then there’s Celeste.She’s not here.Celeste hasn't missed school in a long time and I didn't think she would. And if she was sick, our homeroom teacher would have announced in the morning.
I'm in love with my gangster boyfriend Chapter 185 - She knows
I lean against the fence, hands in my pockets, watching as Tamrin walks into the schoolyard. She moves like a ghost, like she’s here, but not really. She’s trying to act normal—shoulders squared, head up—but I see the cracks in the performance.Her fingers grip the straps of her book bag so tight her knuckles turn white. Every time someone brushes past her, she flinches, catches herself, then forces that mask back on.Guilt. Fear.I recognize it. I’ve seen it in men who know they’ve done something they can’t undo.She knows.And that means I know.Trevor has her wrapped around his finger. Maybe he threatened her, maybe he promised her safety if she stayed quiet. Either way, she’s playing along.I clench my jaw and force myself to breathe through my nose. I want to grab her right now, demand answers, shake her until she tells me where Celeste is.But Trevor is counting on that.

I wake up gasping. My sheets are drenched in sweat, my body shaking so hard my teeth chatter. The room is dark, but I swear I can still see it—the blood, the bodies, Celeste’s terrified eyes disappearing into that box.I squeeze my eyes shut, but it doesn’t help. The images are burned into my mind, playing on repeat, a nightmare that won’t end just because I’ve woken up.Celeste is gone.And I helped make it happen.My stomach twists violently, and I barely make it to the bathroom before I’m throwing up. My whole body convulses as if trying to rid itself of the horror, but it’s useless. No amount of dry heaving will erase what I did.I kneel there on the cold tile, breathing heavily, gripping the s
