A few minutes later when I leave the room, I find Hope waiting for me right outside of the bathroom. “Where’s your mate? I didn’t know you could survive without his tongue all the way in your throat,” I murmur bitterly. Hope gives me a pitiful look, “What? I’m joking.” “Right,” she laughs drily,
"I'm scared of being without him, what am I going to do?" I continue, my voice breaking. "Oh, Sky," my sister sighs. I’m surprised she’s not telling me how stupid I am, but I guess she has changed since she found her fated mate. She has gotten softer, "I can't even blame you, it has been so long
As soon as Hope comes back with a somber expression—probably because she could smell the scent of another woman in my room—I put on my PJs and immediately lay down because my headache is starting to get unbearable. “Everything will feel a little better tomorrow,” Hope says once she gets in bed wi
Hope is sprawled next to me and my eyes feel puffy as hell, but thankfully my headache has subsided. It’s already six thirty AM so I put on some of the clothes Hope brought from my closet last night and I walk to the kitchen to make some breakfast for my daughter. Because life moves on and I guess
"Rocky," I let out and walk to put my hands on his chest and make him look down at me, "I don't want you to lose your mind over this. I need you to be my support during this time, can you do that?" "Probably not. But if Farrow is in the hospital fighting for his life, you won't even need my suppor
Well, that's true. "it was just a painting kind of day," I say and start the car again, "I'm so hungry... how about we go get burgers? Did you eat something already?” "No, I didn’t. I'm trying to lose weight," she whines, "Don't tempt me." "You don't have to lose any weight, Bobbie. It's not
"Yes, he's been cheating," I respond, making her clench her fists. I fucking hate how much she looks just like Farrow, especially now that she's ready to punch someone. "I will kill him," she states in a growl, "And I'll drag whoever that bitch is." "Bobbie, enough," I stop her, because that's o
"I-I mean... it's fucking gold, Hope. And diamonds and actual precious stones,” I say as a last attempt to save them. "Fine, we'll pawn them later," she scoffs and rolls her eyes, "But throw your rings to the pile. It's symbolic." "No," I whine. They're also gold, they will probably melt in the
It takes me two seconds to move, but I get up and walk to him. He looks so handsome right now, wearing a crisp white button shirt with black dress pants and his hair styled the way I told him I liked it. And the way he's carrying those roses... yeah, I'd like a picture too. Good luck my mom is being
"Well, you fucked up by giving it to me so early," I laugh, "Even if we're together, I'll hide it for a while. I just don't want people all in our business asking why I let a boy mark me without a ring on my finger like a dirty whore." "Oh, shut up," he says, rolling his eyes and chuckling, "As if
I blink, still unable to believe this is even happening. “That means putting a pause on you being ‘single’,” he continues after a few seconds, “I know I haven’t earned any rights to you, what I’m asking for is the fair chance to get those rights. And if possible, clear instructions from time to ti
I sigh as I look at him, still nervous. "So I ruined your control when I figured out I was in love with you," I say. Henry takes a deep breath and nods, "But we're not kids anymore, Henry. So why did you reject me? I just don't... I don't think you 'liking me' is enough. What I feel for you goes b
I am listening. I mean, I'm still too confused to do anything other than listen. Henry opens his mouth but doesn't get a chance to say anything because my friends are trying to come back inside. "I said fuck off," he repeats, reaching to lock the door, "Go to your stupid party or whatever, then yo
"I noticed… hell, I asked for it," I admit, sighing and going to my closet to grab something. They follow me, demanding to know, "I asked him to pretend the last month didn't happen. I realized I liked my life more before, with the way we were. I just have to... slowly fall in love with another man.
Only ten minutes later, Bobbie comes into the kitchen and she starts helping me. We don't say anything about the bathroom situation. "Mags and Tams are sleeping over tomorrow," she lets me know as I'm driving to uni. I try to hide my annoyance, unsuccessfully, "They despise you too, now more than
Now I know how is like to touch her, to kiss her and fuck her for real, not as a dumb kid. Now my wolf is involved. Now I know what I'm missing and I want it back. ➿➿➿➿ For two days, we go back one month ago before the clusterfuck of feelings. We go to school, we go to work, we hang out with
"You haven't been doing things right, Henry. And I'm disappointed in you. If you love her... show her. Say it. It won't make you less of a man or whatever you think. She needs to hear it and see it, do you get that? It's not enough to just feel it, speak up." Damn. I gulp and nod. "Exactly what
