But I would be lying if I said it didn’t make my heart happy as fuck when I realized that even the possibility of my being dead and no more in this world would make her that fucking sad, like she couldn’t even ever accept it for it would be too painful. Her cries for me broke and fixed me all at the same time.

I never doubted how much she cared for me. But the way she was avoiding eye contact with me at the dinner, looking unbearably sad by my existence, annoyed even, that sent me down a spiral of unparalleled confusion. But at least now I had some clue about her weird behaviour at the banquet. It all tied into my poisoning and the attempt at my life. But how was the unanswered question.

There were cameras in the cell she was being kept in, the footage of her absolute horror on hearing the news of my demise had to some extent curbed my father’s anger. And bought me some well needed time. The others were not so convinced, most of them, especially my mother, claiming that Roselia was ju

    Derek’s POVIt wasn’t going to be easy. Hell, the last thing this was going to be was easy.Fuck! Lia, sweetie, what the fuck have you done?I kept replaying Walter’s words in my head, trying to find something, anything that could help me prove Lia’s innocence. God! None of this made any fucking sense.I rubbed at the throbbing pain in my head when Lia’s screams echoed in the back of my mind, not stopping anytime soon. I hated myself for making Walter tell her that I was dead. I hated hearing her yearn for me, her voice breaking from shock and sadness, painful denial writ in her voice.But I would be lying if I said it didn’t make my heart happy as fuck when I realized that even the possibility of my being dead and no more in this world would make her that fucking sad, like she couldn’t even ever accept it for it would be too painful.

    She might not have been the one to add poison to the food but she certainly was doing a good job of acting like she did.I needed to get to the bottom of this.She needed to tell me what the fuck was going on. What worried me most was how stiff her whole body was as she anxiously looked everywhere but at me. Her gaze flew to the windows twice. She wanted to escape.“Get up”, I ordered her, keeping my voice gruff and uncaring. If, it physically hurt me to admit it - she was the one who poisoned me, it would be better to stay cautious and not lay out my heart in front of her only for her to break it apart in a million pieces.She didn’t budge, keeping her gaze down.At the end of my patience, I didn’t try to ask her again.

      Caspian’s house looked even more elegant now, the moonlight reflecting off of its surface made the glass exterior look spectacular….. but it was just too treacherously big for me to admit to liking it.  Aiden and I had fallen asleep whilst talking. Thankfully I’d set up an alarm so I’d made it to Lucy’s by 5. I took a cab because I didn’t want to bother Aiden, he’d been asleep anyway. And then when I reached Lucy’s friend's apartment where she was staying, she wrestled me into a skin-tight, red, strapless dress which had a slit right up to the top of my left thigh. And then she practically shoved my feet into some high-heeled Louboutins after applying some mascara, a light blush and a rosy red lipstick despite my protests on her dressing me up more than was needed.  “Would you hurry up there, Bella ?” Lucy frustratedly called out to me as she sauntered over to the horrendously huge house. How she could walk in six-inch pencil heels would remain a mystery to me for the rest of my l

      Muting the movie, I turn to him with a stern look on my face as if to say, ‘Back off mister.’  “You look adorable when you’re angry,” Aiden says, laughing as he pokes my cheek. He pays no heed to my anger radiating towards him.  “You are an insufferable nuisance,” I state in all seriousness as I look to the screen where the movie is still playing.  I keep on ignoring him even when he tries to make me talk so many times. I’m just so done with his mind games. Once, he’s warm and loving….. then he’s cold and distant in the flash of a second.  “Will you tell me what’s bothering you ?” He asks, his tone softening as he entangles his hand with mine on the space I’d made between us on the bed beneath the sheets.  “Nothing. It’s just that…. I, uh…” I can’t think of a way to tell him what I feel without sounding like a complete maniac.  “Well, that was very elaborate of you,” Aiden replies, laughing at me as I pretend to be mad at him but a smile creeps up onto my face.  “Let’s start

      Tipping my chin up, he looks up at me with a torn frown, his gaze moves down to my lips just as I lick my bottom lip.  “I… uh ...um”, I start with my stuttering…. as always  “You’re adorable when you blush.” He gives me a lop-sided grin as he brushes a strand of hair away from my face and tucks it away behind my ear, making me blush even harder.  “I should get going, so…..” I start but am cut off by him placing a finger on my lips…...interrupting me.  “You know, you are now living in my house, right ?” He says, a mischievous grin spreading over his face as he subtly wraps an arm around me.  “Yes,” I answer, curious to know where he’s going with this.  “So you should repay me somehow, don’t you think ? It is the American law after all.” He playfully says, pulling me into him by my waist so that my one hand rested on his shoulder to maintain my balance.  “Hmm….we must abide by the American law obviously.” I replied, winking at him. But before he can reply, I continue, “And we,

      “You look cute when you’re feisty,” Aiden says, giving me a lop-sided grin.  What the fuck ? How could a guy go from being so rude and angry to flirty?  “You’re insane,” I yell at him. This guy is seriously making me lose my mind.  “I don’t know about me being insane but girls sure as hell go insane when they’re under….” He starts, sporting a mocking grin as he leaned against the counter.  “You make me want to scream my head off !” I shoot back. His mood swings are giving me a headache.  “There are many other ways I can make you scream,” Aiden replies, winking at me.  “That’s it, I’m out of here,” I grumble, pissed off by his blunt remarks.  Just as I am about to step into the elevator, his hand blocks my way.  “What ?” I snap at him.  Rubbing the back of his neck, he says somewhat nervously, “Well… since you don’t have an apartment, where will you live ?”  Wow ! Seeing Aiden go from playful and flirty to nervous and hesitant in the flash of a second made my head spin……..

      “Go to sleep, Bel.” Aiden says. Instead of protesting, I just sigh. Too tired to do pretty much anything.  My heart fluttered at the nickname he’d given me, Bel. I kind of liked the sound of it. Just a little bit.  Exhaustion taking over me, I fell asleep to the feel of Aiden cuddling me like a baby.  ……..  The first thing I see when I wake up is the sunlight streaming in through the huge bay window, a few feet away from the bed.  Rubbing the sleep out of my eyes, I try to get up but then I notice that my form is practically meshed into the muscular body sleeping so peacefully next to me.  His leg was tangled into mine, and his arm was over my stomach, gripping it lightly.  For a moment, I was starstruck by how hot he looked. Getting up on my elbows, making his hand slide from my stomach to my waist, I just couldn’t get over the fact how someone could look so hot and appealing so early in the morning.  His messy hair and his manly but also kind face paired with all of his ta

      Aiden further nuzzles into my hair, I can feel the corners of his lips quirking up into a small smile against my hair as he pulls me into him, his hand wrapping around my waist.  His coconuty woody scent paired with his warm body pressed against mine and the exhaustion from everything that happened today and the stress of my apartment flooding and me having nowhere to live takes over my brain as it finally shuts down and I fall into deep slumber.  My body feels so hot all over, I feel like I’ll melt from the heat coursing through me.  Aiden’s chin is on my head and his hand is wrapped tightly around my stomach.  His legs are tangled with mine. My breath hitches when I notice how far his shirt has rode up my body. My black panties were peeking out from under the shirt since it had rode up almost to the top of my thighs.  I quickly pull the shirt down, my body stilling once I realize I might’ve woken him up by my sudden action.  But he makes no move and I can hear him breathing
