Right before we walk inside the gallery, Sky grabs my arm and she pulls me aside so Bobbie and Rocky can get in first. Then she keeps pulling me until we’re in the dark alley next to the gallery. She’s about to threaten my dick again, I think. “I’m always a good sport when you act like an untra
I was expecting her to be cold and distant, but her face softens with a smile and she opens her arms. Oh, okay. I hug her tightly as Nico and Noah engage in conversation to give us a moment of privacy. She smells like family, even though she’s not related to me. "You look so much better already.
I stay with the family with my back firmly to the gallery so I don't have to catch a glance of Sky and Cam again, but when the auction starts, there's no way of escaping that sight anymore. I sit in the front row with the rest of the family with Bobbie to my side and Noah to the other and I have t
"Four hundred and seventy," some old woman behind me says. I squint and turn around to look at her. She's wearing a fur coat and looks two hours away from the grave. That old lady is ruining my romantic gesture. I only have five hundred. And around twenty thousand on my last savings, but five hund
Her company definitely makes me feel better, especially knowing that she’s here because she wants to. We stay there for almost another hour until it's finally time to leave and people start vacating the gallery. Once most of the people is gone, I look at Sky talking to Hope and I think this is th
"I'll make you a painting, Farrow, just for you," I say, making a smile grow on that stupid gorgeous face I love so fucking much, "Of me kicking your ass out of the house. You will keep this money and leave. Soon." "What?" His smile immediately drops, "Sky... what?" His obvious hurt and panic is
My brother takes a second too long, but he bends down enough for me to jump onto his back. Dear heaven, I'm in so much pain. "I can give you my shoes and you give me these," Hope says, grabbing my Louboutins with an evil smile. I kick her, "Fuck you then, I was being nice." "This is the last tim
"The date got canceled, there was a situation with his family," I respond, walking to my daughter because we've been distant since I grounded her, but she was so sweet today. I scoot closer to her until I can hug her, "What are you guys watching?" "Nothing yet, just browsing. I've binged three dif
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
