- HAZEL - I'm stuffed. Overly stuffed that I can't feel my legs. I feel pregnant. And my stomach doesn't feel sore anymore. Maybe all I needed was a good meal. Killian is in the kitchen, taking care of our dishes and I know I'm supposed to be there with him but my curiosity on that file and det
"Oh yeah?" I grin. "Can't think of anything else?" I tilt my head to the side to let his head rest properly on my shoulder. My hair gets tucked behind my ears by his hand. "Anything you want to add? You sure are many things." Killian kisses me again. Only this time, I feel his tongue on my neck.
- KILLIAN - This snooping around, I don't like it. I sigh and close the book I'm reading. I'm on the last page yet I put a book mark. My head dart to the side to look at the lady sleeping peacefully at my side. She's being touchy. On a normal day, I wouldn't get judgy about it as every importan
The laughter trailing from Natalie's end gets on my nerves. She's enjoying this way too much. It's night yet she looks as exquisite as ever. Typical fashion icon mother behaviour. "You look stunning." I compliment. "As always." She finishes my sentences. I wasn't going to add that but I shrug to
- KILLIAN - It’s been a week, I couldn’t get access to the video but life goes on. I run a finger down the shelf, looking for the perfect toy. I’m in an adult boutique, one I love going to. Just last night, the thought came to me; how well does Hazel know her body? How well does she know the
Killian. This past week of distance was messing with my mind! I’m almost done with my meds but my body feels good as new. ‘Can’t wait to see you today.’ I send to him. My lower lip make its way between my teeth as a wide smile forms on my face. ‘Need a lot of snacks. Been on a strict nutrition
- ASAMI - The idiot trusts me. I chuckle under my breath, enjoying a glass of wine in my designated private office in the university. It’s surreal how she does but who wouldn’t? I have my ways with breaking people’s wall, but she eased up to me so easily. I take another sip. Poor, poor Haz
- HAZEL - I’m on my period. For goodness’s sakes! Of all the times it could come, it chose now? To-freaking-day?! Really?!! I mean, now I understand why I was overly horny the past week but this just sucks. I can’t have sex. I’ve never had the biggest bummer in my life. ‘I’m outside.’ I
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
“I’m not innocent.” I murmur. He stands up and walks to me. Killian’s arms are on the ends of my bed, supporting his form as he leans towards me. His face is just inches apart from mine, forcing me to gaze at him. “To me, you are.” His lips locks with mine, devouring my mouth in a short kiss. When
