I can't say 'fuck it' and call his bluff. I care about Hazel but I've worked hard to get to this point. Now I wonder if he knows about the hard drive. With or without that school, I can get what I want. I won't let this man destroy Hazel.... or Kate, but... if it comes down to it, ..... my jaw tigh
I didn't touch his face or neck but I've done so much to his body that he may bleed on the way back. That is, if he'll have the strength to stand up when I'm done with him. "You will send my warm welcome to each and everyone. And when I let you walk out of here alive, you won't utter a word linking
- KILLIAN -"Are you really going to let him go?" Liam asks, standing behind me as Marino scurries out, limping. I want to kill him after everything I've heard. But I won't. Like I said before, I'll give him time to warn people. I'll give him time to run. "No. Knowing him, he'd try to flee. Let him
"It's normal darling, happens all the time." She interacts so nicely that it makes me feel at ease. "A nurse will show up later to do a thorough checkup and you'll have an examination tomorrow. Take care and if you need anything, don't hesitate to alarm us, we're at your disposal, okay?" My lips fo
"Message passed. Leave." "Hazel-" "Killian I don't want you here!" I raise my voice. My eyes are watery. "It might be a game to you," I gasp. "I might be another...." I look for the right words. "Random girl to you but don't. Don't put me in a place I'd regret something when you won't be completel
- KILLIAN - I got in my car and groaned. Gasping for air while laying my back on the seat. I'm in pain. My body is suffering from everything I did today and I can't begin to talk about the heart ache. I met her today and at least that calmed me down a bit. The encounter wasn't really what I expect
- HAZEL - It's been two days, I clench my fingers around the huge pink plushie on my bed, sinking my head into it. It's so soft. And the best part about it is, it comes with a voice box. I gently press the collar around the neck of my plushie, which has my name engraved on a golden heart-shaped na
I stopped caring about this part of the equation the moment I let him see me naked in that call. The moment his fingers ruined my core. Again.I clear my throat. I wonder if I can actually have a true relationship with Kaiden when Killian shows up all the time. I wonder if Killian really cares or do
- KILLIAN - “Your girlfriend? What the fuck, Liam?!” I rage, dragging him inside my bedroom. The women are downstairs, spending time together to bond. “What else did you expect me to do? Let your woman peel the hair off your other one?!” Liam asks, sounding just as distressed as I was. His outw
I gulp, lowering my eyes to the ground. I can’t even call her name. “I-“ I can barely hear my own voice. “Kate I’m sor-“ “I see you two have already met.” A deep voice words from behind causing the two of us to avert our piercing gazes from each other. It’s Liam. Trust me, I am just as confused as
- HAZEL - My wound has been treated. I’ve taken my antibiotics and had a decent light meal so right now, I’m in the shower, brushing my teeth. I’ve already had my bath, I just want to have a fresher breath when I meet with my parents. I turn the sink tap on and cup my hand underneath to form a
- HAZEL - Killian tucks a duvet over the bed. I’m sat on it, well fed and stuffed to the core, about to lay down and sleep. On his bed. After spending my time on a hospital bed, although comfortable, his bed is my new favourite place. Something about having him near me when I sleep makes me feel p
- KILLIAN - I love my brother, I genuinely do but even I can tell he’s trying to get on my nerves on purpose. His drive is the fact that I care about someone else who’s not family as much as I do and he’s going to do what he does best and torment me. Sometimes, all I feel for him is love but when
Killian chuckles. “For someone whose body burns with need, you sure seem to exhibit self control.” I don’t have self control when it comes to you, but you already know that, I say in my mind. I would’ve spoken that out loud if my voice wasn’t buckled away in the depths of my throat. To be honest,
- HAZEL - I don’t know when I dozed off. All I remember was the two of us getting sweaty and all over each other in the car. I remember Killian being gentle yet rough with me at the same time. Our heavy breathing in contrast with one another as he entered me. As he tainted every inch of my bare
- HAZEL - I am awake alright. More awake than ever. I can’t help but shake the feeling of nervous anticipation at meeting his brother. This is someone Killian always talked about. His only family. The one he raised. What if Liam doesn’t like me? What if, that happens, and he somehow manages to
- KILLIAN - The plane landed. I turn my head to the side to look at the lady next to me. Laid on the sofa and asleep in my private jet is Hazel. Does she always sleep during long journeys in planes or was she just extremely tired or is this her way of responding to her wound? I can’t tell, it’s my
