It Started With A Kiss Chapter 52: it'll always be him
Larissa's viewpointHe was a bit shocked to see me abruptly open the door, but he sniffed, using the back of his palm to wipe his wet face. I knew he would be sad, but I didn't think it was to this extent. I rarely saw him cry unless he was genuinely mad at himself or deeply wounded by something. He bowed his head sadly. "I'm sorry, please, don't hate me. I know I shouldn't have said what I said but I did because I was angry at myself. I roped you along without even knowing my true feelings. I used you to hurt someone you cared about. I was so blind I didn't realize what I was doing until the mistake was made. I'm sorry, Larissa, please forgive me and take me back. My head is a mess right now and I'm—"My phone rang in my pocket, cutting him off. I brought the phone out. My heart skipped when I saw that it was Zayne. I sighed to adjust my accelerating heart. I scrolled down and put my phone on flight mode. I didn't need any distractions at the moment. Pocketing my phone back, I smiled
It Started With A Kiss Chapter 53: I don't like him
Zayne's viewpoint"Mom, Larissa's here!" Rihanna shouted from the porch. My heart skipped and sank to my stomach. What's she doing here? Is she here to break up with me finally? Yeah, she's here to dump me and tell me it's him. I turned to leave, but Mom commanded that I stay still. I cannot disobey her.Her taunting laughter echoed in the passageway, along with Riha's chattering. I held my breath and turned around, just as Riha pulled her into sight. The first thing I noticed on her was the white leather jacket she "borrowed" from my closet. That somehow made me release the breath I didn't know I was holding. If she's wearing that, she still likes me, right? Maybe. Gosh, Zayne, use your head.Larissa was wearing her signature red combat boots with black lace, she loved those boots. She wore that skirt Serenity likes wearing at home. A pink peacock feather printed knife-pleated skirt, a mini skirt, and a white crop tube top. She likes that type of top. Since when did she start wearing
It Started With A Kiss Chapter 54: What if he is in love with you?
Larissa's viewpointI couldn't believe what I did, I told him I liked him. I just wanted to assure him that I didn't like Neo. I was expecting it but I thought as he was Zayne, he'd be smart enough to tell otherwise, but I was wrong. I'd always known that my future boyfriend would have a problem with my closeness with Neo, so I mentally prepared myself for it. I just didn't expect that my boyfriend would end up being Zayne and I did expect him to think with his head. Guess jealousy isn't above anyone.The next thing I knew, I was confessing my secret and getting embarrassed. Should have thought of something else. He had a creepy smirk on his face as he stared at him and blushed to oblivion. He would wiggle his brows teasingly whenever our eyes met, causing me to blush again."Oh, stop it!" I screamed, hitting his bicep. "It's not funny!" He poked me on the cheek. I swat his hand away with a huff. He laughed instead. "Shut up!""So that's why you avoided me like a plague after kissing
It Started With A Kiss Chapter 55: get rid of the problem
Zayne's viewpointI tossed and turned on my bed. I felt restless and agitated. I sat up for the umpteenth time and reached for my hair but directed my hand to my pendant. All I could think about was him, Spontaneous Richard. That son of a dick is in love with Larissa. She just wasn't seeing it. Larissa has convinced herself that he can never love her but I knew it. I always knew he was a threat. There's nothing worse than feelings realized late.The only thing I had on my side was the fact that she declared that she would never love him, but that wasn't good enough to assure me. Neo had time on his hands. He had enough time to carve his name in her heart and although she claimed she had liked me for five years, it was nothing compared to the years he had.How do I break them apart? There was no other solution. I refuse to share her with him whether as a friend or an acquaintance. As long as he is around, I will never find peace. Larissa said that if he confessed, she'd distance hersel
It Started With A Kiss Chapter 56: what's up with this family?
Larissa's viewpointI yawned as I stretched on my toes, walking into the kitchen in Zayne's family mansion. I walked in just in time for breakfast. They sat around the kitchen island, eating and chattering. Zyaire was annoying a different version of Zayne, the eldest brother. Zayne had Rihanna on his lap, smiling affectionately at her as he fed her while she rambled on about something. Her father was also listening to her speak. Jewels was in a serious conversation with Serenity and Savia was washing the dishes while their mother was slicing some cabbages.I dropped my hand, suddenly feeling nervous and turning red in the face. I slept over at Zayne's family house, in his scary sister's room and now I was going to have breakfast with them. I felt like they already accepted me. I felt like their in-law. The thought alone made blissful warmth blossom in my heart and filled me with joyful energy, despite my nervousness. If his family already accepted me, then all that is left is his exte
It Started With A Kiss Chapter 57: we're perfect for each other
Zayne's viewpointI paced around my room in front of my bed, biting into my bottom nail. Cold sweat broke from my skin and a constant chill went down my spine. My legs were weak but I couldn't stop pacing and with my heart jamming hard against my ribcage and my stomach in my throat, the increased pump of blood helped maintain the chills and the tremor racking my body.Dammit.I messed up.I let Zachary lure me into a fight so I'd expose how ridiculously crazy my family is to Larissa. It's already established that we are abnormal and mad people, but she didn't need to know or even witness it. I only realized what Zachary did after it was done. The smug smirk only I saw was a clear indication. He did that to piss me off and he succeeded. Zachary believed that no woman is like Mom who'll just accept our family's madness and see it as normal instead of what it truly is. His broken heart has helped him prove his point. He did that to try to make me see things from his viewpoint as well.I
It Started With A Kiss Chapter 58: raging Star
Larissa's viewpointI parked the car carefully next to the expensive Mercedes Benz. I killed the engine and pulled out the key, stretching my hands upward and bending my back. The pleasant sound of my bones popping and my heart racing was music to my ears. I dropped my hands and with a wide smile on my face, I looked at the back seat of my father's car and grinned. There were a lot of shopping bags stacked in there. It turns out Zayne's sister came with a lot of gifts for me. Savia spent more money on jewelry and shoes while Serenity focused on the clothes. The most amazing thing about it is that when I checked some of the clothes, they were fancy and stylish and comfortable for me.I already planned to go with Starliss to the mall to change my wardrobe since I had every reason to change my style, but after the fight and the money consideration, I held back a lot. His sisters did it for me. I remember when I was leaving, Zachary came to me and poked me in the arm. I smiled at the memo
It Started With A Kiss Chapter 59: boys are scumbags, but your boyfriend is not
Larissa's viewpointThere was silence after her acrimonious explosion, then she broke the silence with a scoff. The twitch of her finger made me know she felt guilty but she didn't want them to know that. "Stay away from Odette, Javelin. You've done enough damage. I won't allow Odette to feel the depth of betrayal as I have. If you try to contact her again, I'll sell disgraceful and harmful secrets of you and your band and ruin all of your lives and career. I'll sell them to the most dangerous reporters—"Javelin tilted his hardened jaw upward and sneered at her. "You're bluffing,"A bone-shuddering smirk sprawled on her face and her furious gaze darkened. She folded her arms under her breasts and cocked her hips. "Why don't you go online and find out if your little sister is bluffing or not," she twinkled her eyes to taunt him. I saw his body tense. He picked up his phone while still staring at her apprehensively. I didn't bother checking what she did because without a doubt Starliss

It Started With A Kiss Epilogue
Today marks a year and seven months since Larissa went into a coma. The project to fasten her healing remains a failure. There has been no positive result since. So far, the doctors still deem her survival impossible and the medicine to help the impossible become possible is nothing but a failure. The agreed number of experiments I can carry out is getting close. I promised my parents that after the number is three hundred, I will not carry out any more experiments. Even if they are condemned criminals, even if they throw away gangsters from the assassin association and mafia, they are still humans. Or so Mom said. Almost two years isn't enough to heal the wound in my heart, or anyone who truly loved her. I miss her. I miss everything about her. The world has no colors without her. I caught him, the bastard who made this happen. It's a shame he died from the third experiment. I would have loved to put him to more use. Larissa's parents welcomed a new baby last
It Started With A Kiss Chapter 114: pull yourself together
Zayne's viewpointI tapped my foot on the floor, my hands clasped and pressed to my lips. I silently prayed with my eyes closed for a good result since we didn't have the time or anyone to test it out. It wasn't something dangerous, that we were sure of but anything could happen. It'd been almost nine hours since the operation began. There had been no news from Dad or the doctors. We weren't allowed in there.Savia huffed for the umpteenth time. She had been pacing for four hours without a break. Neither of us could sleep. Serenity slept off thrice and woke up with a scream. She had nightmares. Zyaire slept off along the way, but unlike Serenity, he did not wake or shake, he cried in his sleep. None of us could be bothered to soothe each other's pain."Argh!!!" Savia screamed, ruffling her hair and shaking her head wildly. "This is driving me crazy!""Relax, Savvy," Aunt Rylee said softly. She accompanied us to the hospital along with her husband, Uncle Phineas. We kept Mom's conditio
It Started With A Kiss Chapter 113: reckless decisions (2)
Larissa's viewpointI looked around the house, walking in slowly while Neo went in to get something. It was strange. He told me it was an apartment and his Grandpa was sending him away but for someone who was leaving, they put a great effort into the interior design of the house. Note that I said house, not apartment. It was undoubtedly a beautiful home. The taupe gray, silver, and cream theme with a bit of brown was lovely, along with the furniture and the styling."I'm back," he announced, drawing my attention to him. He walked to the cream camel back sofa with a bottle of Beaufort a Ambonnay Grand Cru Doux Rose, two white wine glasses, a big plate of Swedish meatballs, and dark chocolate almond barks. He dropped the tray on the table and sat down."Shouldn't you be using champagne glasses for those?" I joined him."I broke them," I picked the bottle first. It was one of my favorite wines. "So how are you doing? Since you got out,""Not good. My grandparents are shipping me off to I
It Started With A Kiss Chapter 112: reckless decisions
Larissa's viewpointI stood at the airport, listening to my Dad nag about how he'd like to return home and meet his house the same way he left it. It was the day after the wedding. My Dad and Mikayla were officially married. Zayne got me the VIP pass to the hotel I asked him to. I still couldn't shake off the grin on my face from the way my parents reacted. Though it was a gift Zayne spent effort on, it was still from me. Dad made sure to rub that on my face but Mikayla was sincerely grateful. I wish I could exclude him from the honeymoon."And you cannot throw or attend any party in our absence. Odette and Tristan, if I find out you broke anything in another argument again, I'll destroy your souls, use your flesh to make leather, and wear them as boots—""Dad, that's not—""Boots!" He snarled, daring us to correct him again. "Larissa, I promise you, I will hunt you to the end of the earth even in death if you dare redecorate my house," he growled, glaring daggers at me. I gasped. How
It Started With A Kiss Chapter 111: you'll survive
Larissa's viewpoint"Are you hurt?" The expected question. He needed to stop worrying about me. It was sweet of him but also unnecessary. I wasn't like before. If it hurt, I'd let him know."I'm fine, don't worry,""I’m still going to… fuck me," he groaned when my walls clenched hard around him. He fell over, using his hands to hold up his weight from compressing me. "Damn. I'm going to go a little stronger than before. Please don't hesitate to–""Tell you if it hurts or if I can't handle it, yes, I know. Can you move now?""Remember to—""For goodness's sake, I will," I laughed, a bit impatient and lust showing in my tone. "I promise I won't foolishly take more than I can handle so please continue or I'll flip us over and fuck you myself. You know, that was the plan when I wore this underwear. The plan was to tie you up and have my way with you," Zayne chuckled and put strength in his arms, holding back his desire (as always) to destroy my insides recklessly, and the result of that w
It Started With A Kiss Chapter 110: this isn't good for my heart
Larissa's viewpoint"I've arrived!" I shouted, kicking Zayne's bedroom door open. He spun the giant white ball chair around, revealing the red interior. He looked at me flatly and I grinned in response. "Zaddy, I'm home!" I shrieked again. Of course, we were at his private house. We agreed to meet there, but he didn't have the large chair the last time I came."That door is worth someone's yearly salary, be careful with it," I nodded, swinging the bags in my hands happily. "You're wearing a coat," he stated."For dramatic reveal," I replied, dropping the bags on the glass table. "And no, I'm not bothered by what my mother said to me. If anything, I feel sorry for myself," he stretched his hands out, gesturing for me to come closer. I planned to go over to him anyway. "I feel pity and disappointment for myself. I allowed the fear of what I might be like if I became anything like her to torment me for years. I feared becoming like her the most but seeing her right now, I'm forced to won
It Started With A Kiss Chapter 109: Henrietta
Larissa's viewpointI exhaled through my nostrils, rubbing my throbbing forehead. My body felt heavy and in desperate need of a massage or to shut down for three straight days. It's been two weeks since Zayne left school. We barely saw each other. I couldn't be selfish and bother him with my fantasies and loneliness, so I focused on work and my parents' wedding. A lot of things were going on. I'll start from the beginning.I felt bad about what I said to Neo and wanted to make amends but I never got the chance to. Proof of illegal dealings was found in his father's office. I was greatly appalled when the truth behind their success was exposed. Neo's father owned a secret organization for prostitution and slavery. People were illegally smuggled into the country by will or by force and worked as sex workers. There was also a section for children for sick bastards who couldn't enjoy normal sexual relationships with adults. There were a lot of other illegal sexual activity, including rape
It Started With A Kiss Chapter 108: you can try lifting their spirits
Larissa's viewpointI nervously walked into the house and the moment I did, I felt the dark and gloomy energy inside the house. The energy made a chill run down my spine, making me hug my body tightly. I looked around the house and just then, Zyaire walked into the living room, scratching the scruff of his neck as he yawned. The first thing I noticed was that his hair was a mess and his eyes were red and swollen. Zyaire had been crying."Zyaire," he halted, then slowly raised his eyes to look at me. His eyes looked lifeless. "Hi," I greeted. He looked at me coldly, then quietly continued walking."Zayne won't be able to see you now, he's busy. You can wait in his room or wait here if you wish,""What is he doing?" I asked, walking over to join him on the couch. "He sounded very miserable on the phone– your Mom, how is she?""She's alive for now,"I smacked his shoulder scoldingly. "Don't say it like that. You'll make me nervous,"He chuckled. At least I managed to pull that from him.
It Started With A Kiss Chapter 107: wanna help me get rid of him?
Starliss' viewpointIf I already didn't have a goal for my future, I would have considered becoming an actress. Masking my emotions, and pretending to be someone that I am not is a huge part of me and I'm greatly skilled at it. I'm not blowing my own horns here, I am proudly stating facts.I watched as Larissa's eyes darkened involuntarily. She was incredibly softhearted when it came to Neo but she was merciless if anyone touched Odette. Anyone being able to hurt Odette and Tristan was the height of her rage. She might not always react with anger, but she always makes the right decision when they are hurt in any way. The moment I saw the dark expression on her face, I couldn't fight back the smile I knew she wouldn't notice.Larissa turned around and walked out. I followed her quietly but stopped at the door, making sure to hide myself but look between the cracks. She knocked on the window of Neo's sports car and tapped her foot impatiently. It was something she did unconsciously when
