Chapter Twenty Seven - A close call
Caleb
The past two days have been amazing, and we still have all of today and night to spend together watching films, eating junk food and just being in each other’s company.
“What do you want to watch today, babe?” I asked Scarlett.
“You naked all day,” Scarlett replied with a smirk on her face.
“Plenty of time for that.” I winked at her.
She is the most beautiful person I have ever seen, and I love spending time with her. She is so radiant day or night; she just glows.
Scarlett was the closest thing to perfection in my eyes. I have not met anyone like her. She was so sweet, with a huge heart, and let’s not forget sexy as fuck. But I knew if she knew the truth, I would lose her. I hate lying to her, but it is the best for everyone.
“We could go out for the day, dr

Scarlett I was exhausted. I barely slept last night because I was worried about everything that happened with Caleb. I know it was no accident. I know who was in my garden yesterday, and I know who tried to kill Caleb. PJ!And I was going to get the truth out of him, one way or another. I know why he tried to do it too. Not only because he is trying to get rid of Caleb because I haven’t yet, but also because he is jealous. The fact that Caleb is in danger because of me breaks my heart, and it angers me.I really need to get myself sorted for work, but I don’t want to wake up Caleb as he seems so peaceful, and he has slept well all night, considering what happened. I’ll go for a shower, then try and figure out what I’m doing.After showering, I put on my dressing gown and headed downstairs for some coffee and a think. When I got halfway down my stairs,
Scarlett's Secrets Chapter Twenty Nine - Threats
CalebWalking home from the cafe was nice; it’s good to get some fresh air and have a warm coffee. What a brilliant weekend I have had. I wasn’t ready for it to end but knew we would need to go back to some sort of reality. I hope Scarlett has an excellent first day back at work.I turned the corner onto my street, and as I walked closer to my house, I saw a car parked up near my home. The car looks familiar, but I’ve not seen it on my street before. It looks like the car that was behind me on the way to Scarlett’s house a few days ago; in fact, I’m sure it’s the car that tried to take me out.I walked slightly faster to see if I could see anyone in the car, but as I got closer, the car engine started, and it drove off. Maybe it is nothing, and I’m just paranoid.This was all getting too much. I rushed into my place. At least I woul
Scarlett's Secrets Chapter Thirty - Sounds like the perfect day...
ScarlettThe last two days at work have been hectic. I am so ready for the next three days off. Not only because I can have some me time, but I also get to spend some time with Caleb. First things first, shower and fruit smoothie to start this day. Going downstairs to get my smoothie sorted, I sent Caleb a message to ensure he was up and getting ready. He is coming to pick me up at eleven-thirty to go get some coffee and a wee bite to eat.It has been a few days since we have seen each other last, there has been many phone calls, facetime, and messages, but I'm looking forward to seeing him in person and feeling his lush lips touch mine.My phone beeped, and I got excited, thinking it was Caleb. It wasn't. I was soon disappointed when I saw it was PJ.We need to meet—tomorrow at ten a.m. I haven't heard from him in days, not since what happ
Scarlett's Secrets Chapter Thirty One - I could get used to this...
Caleb I was anxious to get back to Scarlett’s to get her alone. And no, I don’t only mean for sex, I mean in general. I didn’t feel very safe out, and about after the texts and notes, I had received. That is why I wasn’t checking my phone, because if it is another text, that may just push me over the edge. I wanted a day with Scarlett without worrying about it all.I was looking around as Scarlett unlocked her front door to let us in. I have become so paranoid it is beyond ridiculous. I got into her place as quick as I could without being obvious. The moment I closed the door and turned around, Scarlett pulled me close. She pressed her lips roughly to mine. The kiss was passionate. She pulled away after a moment, breathless.“Sorry, I have wanted to kiss you like that since I saw you,” She giggled.Scarlett kissing me took my mind away from the d
Scarlett's Secrets Chapter Thirty Two -
Caleb I regret opening the texts. I was tired of these texts, but the previous ones were nothing like these. I read through them again.You have been warned more than once. You don’t get another chance. I am coming for you and Scarlett. Did you enjoy your lunch and walk in the park with your pretty little girlfriend? I hope so because it will be your last: tick-tock, Logan. You better be gone by the end of tonight because see if you aren’t, I will come by and put a bullet in both your heads. I will start with your girlfriend and make you watch.What the fuck! What am I going to do? I need to do as I am told. I can’t have anything happen to Scarlett because of me. I got up from the bed and pulled on my boxers and jeans. I was pacing the floor around Scarlett’s bed.
Scarlett's Secrets Chapter Thirty Three - Goodbye
ScarlettOpening my eyes and looking around the room, I notice I never did make it up to my bed last night. Not going to bed is not like me at all, but all that good and wine just made me too tired, so I must have passed out. I sat up and tried to wake up a bit more. What time is it? I wonder if Caleb left me here and went up to bed as he is not in the living room with me.I checked my phone and saw it was seven forty-five. I also noticed that all the empty plates and glasses had been taken away. I must have been out cold as I don’t remember hearing any noise. In fact, what I do remember was Caleb telling me he loved me. I remember hearing his voice close to my ear when he said it like he whispered it to me.I need to get myself up and find him and see if he tells me again to my face this time as I have well and truly fell for him.I headed upstairs to look for him, but he was nowhere
Scarlett's Secrets Chapter Thirty Four - Where is he?
Scarlett I pace as I wait for PJ to get here. I hear my door open, and he walks in. I waited until he was in sight.“Where the fuck is he? What did you do to him? What did you say?” I hiss.“I don’t know what you mean,” He said smugly.“Caleb! Where the fuck is he? Do not mess me around, PJ, because I am not in the damn mood,” I bark.“For someone who apparently doesn’t care, you sure are angry,” He said.I was not in the mood for his bullshit!“Stop messing with me PJ, tell me where he is!!” I shouted.“Calm down, crabby pants,” he laughed, “I don’t even know why you think I have anything to do with this.” He flung himself down on my couch and grinned at me.“PJ, how am I
Scarlett's Secrets Chapter Thirty Five - No more lies!
CalebI just sat on a chair at the table with my head in my hands and a warm cup of instant coffee next to me. I really wish it didn't need to come to this, I didn't want to leave Scarlett, but I was out of options. I feel like all I have done since I left is think about what I have had to leave behind, mainly Scarlett.I'm not sure how long I'm going to be able to hide out here for, but I do have enough supplies to do me at least two weeks and a handful of books to read.I wish there were a way to contact people back home, but I worry that the people after me could be watching them.This isn't the first time I have been on the run, and usually, I just get on with it, but it was different now. I had friends. I had Scarlett. I had a life, unlike those other times. I now remember why I don't let people close because your past always catches up eventually and puts those who we care about
