“I would like you to be quick with that.” Killian murmurs in my ears, his breath hard on the back of my neck. “I’m trying.” I croak back at him. A deep chuckle sends shivers down my spine. “Maybe it’ll be faster if it’s not upside down.” My face drops as I hear that. No wonder it didn’t go i
- Hazel - It's our anniversary today. Tristan and I are finally celebrating being one year together and he told me he has everything planned. All I need to do is meet him at the hotel. One of the best in the city. It's hard getting a reservation there. One has to apply and wait for months before a
- HAZEL -I got out of my bathroom in a short pink robe and newly styled hair. I did it myself. I obviously spent more time fixing my hair than washing my body and I won't be surprised if I'm late. My eyes scanned my room decorated with scented candles, I can feel the love already. Laying comfortab
- KILLIAN -I was going through some folders on my desk when I my phone screen beamed with a notification. My phone is on silent but that dim glow caught my attention and I picked it up while pinching the bridge of my nose. I got a text from an unknown number. A client maybe. Or the vice chancellor
- KILLIAN - She's drunk. I sat her in my car in the passenger seat, belted her up and walked to my side. It would be entirely different if she wasn't. I can't touch her the way I want to. I can't look at her either because she's vulnerable. I gazed at Hazel. She leaned her head on my window, in m
- Hazel - I couldn't move even if I wanted to. My knees are weak and his fingers are doing things to my body. Making me imagine sinful things. "I'm waiting." The deep baritone of Killians voice sent jolts of electricity down my spine. He's so close to me that I can barely breathe nor think. "Tell
- HAZEL -My eyes flickered open. I moaned and tried to turn to the other side of the bed. A hiss slipped out of my lips. My body hurts. I looked down at my feet. Especially my legs. I feel like a cripple. Not to talk of how bad my head hurts. I must've drank so much last night. I sighed and stare
- HAZEL - I was fazed ever since I finished class and couldn't concentrate much in all of my classes throughout the day. I never expected to see him again, yet here I am, passing through the worst cliche of my life. I checked my guide and tried to find my way to my dorm. I couldn't say a word thro
“I would like you to be quick with that.” Killian murmurs in my ears, his breath hard on the back of my neck. “I’m trying.” I croak back at him. A deep chuckle sends shivers down my spine. “Maybe it’ll be faster if it’s not upside down.” My face drops as I hear that. No wonder it didn’t go i
- HAZEL - My heads shoots towards the window and my lips fall slowly ajar as I stare at his mansion through the driveway. It’s been a long ass while since I’ve been here. I nearly forgot how huge this place is. I nearly forgot the comfort this place gave me. The love I received here. It’s all hitt
- KILLIAN - I just want her near me. I am loosing my mind every single second knowing she’s out there alone. Knowing I was warned by not only Natalie but Liam as well yet I chose to discard it. Knowing I put her in danger. And this time, it’s not simply Asami. S is involved. Owen is involved. A
‘Don’t scare me like that. . .’ Staring at the text i typed on my keyboard, I bite my lower lip in thought. Is a ‘pick me up at nine’ text better in this case? I don’t know what to respond to reading my life is in danger. My fingers sweep through my hair, pushing it backwards. I’m puffing air out my
- HAZEL - A buzz makes my brows crease, stirring the sleepiness out of my eyes. I don’t want to not be asleep. I want to have some rest. It’s the least I can have after such a shitty day; this is me referring to yesterday by the way. The buzz keeps disturbing. I turn to the side, keeping my eyes
- KILLIAN - I tap a pen on my desk, sighing each time it collides with table. The gentle thud it makes eases my nerves. Almost like my zippo does. The open and slam of my door against the wall draws my attention from the pen to the door. “Calling me at random hours is getting old, don’t you t
- OWEN - “Let’s just say, I needed to speak to you about certain arrangements.” The computer voice chimes. I withdraw my hand holding my phone to my ears steadily and place my phone back on the couch, keeping it on loud speaker. The only being who can infiltrate my mansion any day and any time
With poison. One that wouldn’t be traced even with an autopsy. Once a child crosses a certain level of abuse, it’s hard to want to imagine to go back to it. That’s why I did what I did. How everything else was willed to me however? Is something that’ll be kept to myself no matter what. Till I’m read
And the lucky ones, like me, made it despite the struggle. In a world where everyone seems to care about each other, when you’re a nobody, you’ll realise that it’s all pretence. People stan being there for one another only when they don’t see you as filthy or a burden. Only when the only kind of fil
