Love in Chaos CHAPTER 20: THE ROOM CONVERSATION
Thomas’ Point of View“Thomas,” her voice low, as it called out to me. Her eyes wide with apprehension. She looked like she had been crying, her eyes red and glistening with tears.“I could hear you screaming from the hallway,” I said, stepping closer to her. “What’s wrong, Lily? Why are you crying?”She hesitated and my concern grew as her eyes darted away from mine. My eyes flickered to Simon, who stood close. I couldn’t read his expression. “Did I miss something?” I asked, trying to piece together what had happened in my absence.Simon shifted uneasily. “Lily and I…” he began, but Lily cut him off.“I was just… I got emotional, and Simon happened to be here,” she said, wiping her eyes with the back of her hand. She avoided my gaze, focusing on the floor instead. “I glanced between the two of them, suspiciously. “Simon has only just arrived,” I noted, confused.“Yes,” Lily agreed, her voice steadier now. “I should leave you both. Have a good night, Tom, Lily,” Simon said, and wit
Love in Chaos CHAPTER 21: BOUND TO MARRY THOMAS
Lily’s Point of View“How’s my favorite girl doing?” My mum giggled as she entered the guest room I’d been settled in. “Hi Mum,” I smiled, greeting her with a hug as Lizzy, one of the staff rolled my suitcase in. “Thank you,” I said to Lizzy. She offered a polite smile and left. “Oh…Lily, I’m glad to see you looking better today.” “I am mum. Yesterday. was, too much for me. I didn’t expect the turn of events.”“I understand. You know, surprises can be heartwarming, especially when you think of all the effort put into them.”“Yeah. But not an unwelcome surprise or a bad turn of event no one saw coming.”“Yes. You’re right. Fortunately for us though, ours was great. You’re going to have a luxurious wedding. And the best part of it all, you won’t have to pay a dime,” she giggled. I chuckled, staring at her before grabbing the suitcase and placing it on the bed. “What? Did I say something wrong?”“No, It’s just…how can we be mother and daughter and still be so different?”“Huh…now,
Love in Chaos CHAPTER 22: MAKING AMENDS
Simon’s Point of ViewMy thoughts had been a mess since the night I arrived and saw Lily again. It’d been three years since I last saw her. Yet, my world paused every time I laid eyes on her. She stood in the kitchen, her focus on the knife as she spread butter on her bread. I wondered what she was thinking as I walked in. I could tell I had interrupted her the moment she spotted me. She looked tense, her hand gripping the knife a little too tightly. She glared at me alarmed. “What are you doing here?”I stepped forward before she could move, my body pressing against the counter, blocking her path. “Lily, we need to talk.”“Move away, Simon. I’ll hurt you if you don’t,” she threatened, raising the knife to my face. I didn't move, my eyes locking onto hers. I was pissed at myself for leaving her, but I had to make her hear me out. “Please, Lily. Just listen.”She stared at me. “Give me one reason why I shouldn’t cut your throat after what you did.”Slowly, I reached out, taking he
Love in Chaos CHAPTER 23: THE CLUB SHOCK
Lily’s Point of View The loud music welcomed me and the guys as we entered the club. I sat between the two brothers, uncomfortable and predictably so. “Are you okay?” Simon asked, his brown eyes observing me like he was ready to attend to my every need. “Yes,” I lied. Of course, I wasn't okay. How could I be? I was sitting between the love of my life and my fiance. Each of them wanted a piece of me. To top it all, they were brothers. “You’re sweating, and you don't seem relaxed. Are you sure everything is okay?” he asked again, leaning closer. My tense posture had given me away, for sure. I nodded, reluctant to lie again. “Lily, you should have left your bad behavior at home. I have told you before, you won’t always have it your way,” Thomas murmured, his voice almost a growl, leaning closer to me. “If I could have my way, I’d be at home, probably sleeping by now,” I muttered, my eyes darting to the floor to avoid his gaze. “You’re proving my point. Get used to doing wha
Love in Chaos CHAPTER 24: LEAVING THE CLUB WITH LILY
Simon’s Point of View Lily’s eyes were still sharp, but she looked lost in thought. She went quiet. What could she be thinking? I wondered. Leaving Lily was a decision that haunted me every day since I made it. I should have tried harder to find her. I didn’t because I was ashamed of how I left things between us and afraid she wouldn’t take me back. Now, life had brought us together again in the cruelest way. I hated that I wanted my brother’s woman. No—correction—my woman, the one he stole. I can’t back off from Lily. He isn’t right for her. I wanted to just tell him about my past with Lily and that I’ve made up my mind to win her back. Even though I know Lily is right. Thomas wouldn’t let her go without a fight. Not because he loved her, but because of his pride and need for control. Thomas and I have a complicated relationship. It could have been better without his mum. I hate her guts. I’m sure she had a hand in my mother’s death, and I’ll prove it one day. They always took ever
Love in Chaos CHAPTER 25: MY FIRST LOVE AND MY FIANCÉE
Lily’s Point of ViewI hoped he wouldn’t follow me as I quickened my steps, finally reaching my room and shutting the door. I exhaled. I pressed my ear against the door, listening for any sign of him. All I heard was silence. I exhaled again. Why was he tormenting me? It was hard enough being in the same place as him, and he made sure he was always around. Did he have to bring all that up? I’d tried to forget him. I spent the last three years fueling my anger to keep him out of my thoughts for good. So why did it feel like my anger was fading? I should hate him, but I don’t. Why couldn’t I look him in the eye and tell him I didn’t love him? Damn it. He’d probably think I’m still in love with him. Darn it. Am I… still in love with him? I never let myself think that before. But here he is, showing up in my life and making me confront the thought I feared most: that I still love him after everything. And maybe, just maybe, I could fall for him again.Oh God, I can’t be thinking this. How
Love in Chaos CHAPTER 26: THE FACE-OFF
Simon’s Point of ViewI sped down the hallway to my room, slamming the door behind me. Had I ruined everything? I could have sworn she still loved me. The look in her eyes gave her away—she wasn’t over me yet. I wondered what my next move should be. Was I trying too hard? Should I let go of Lily and watch her marry Thomas? The thought of it tore me apart. I missed Lily. I missed her being close to me, the way her smile lit up when she walked into my office. Those months we spent working together, our first night together—it blew my mind. I wanted more. I needed more. I had to be with her, feel her close to me, again and again. But it’d be impossible if she married Thomas. I have to win her back. I can’t give up. If I wanted to do this right, I needed to show her I was serious this time. I wasn’t going to walk away again. I was here to stay, to finish what we started. Tonight showed me that with just the right amount of pressure, she’d be mine again. Stay consistent, I told myself. Bu
Love in Chaos CHAPTER 27: AFTER LAST NIGHT
Thomas’ Point of View I walk into the office, determined not to let last night throw me off. Simon has barely arrived, and already he’s trying to pull Lily to his side. Does she really think I’ve been too hard on her, or is Simon just twisting things to suit his agenda? Either way, it doesn’t matter—I haven’t lost sight of my goal: getting Lily to marry me. But she isn’t making it easy. She expects me to act in ways that go against everything I am. I’m not about to let myself be ruled by a woman’s emotions or whims, no matter how much she wants that. I know she does. Still, I think I’ve given her just enough to show her what she can expect from me. Simon’s meddling could have messed it up, but it’s handled now. If Lily thinks I’ll put any more effort into winning her over, she’s mistaken. My patience is wearing thin. A wife’s role is clear: someone to care for me, satisfy my needs, and give me children. Why can’t she just accept that? Just as I’m settling into work, ready to put i
