“No, no, no!” Tristan broke down completely, falling to his knees. “Ah! Ah!”He started screaming, punching the floor as tears flooded his cheeks. Charlie, on the other hand, tried to appease him. She leveled with him, saying, “It’s okay. We will get you a new guitar, and Taylor will understand -”
Taylor’s face remained grim. He was sitting beside Charlie, his arm around her waist. He reasoned, “He bullied my brother and hit my girlfriend. I say he deserved every bit of it, Officer. I’d like to make a phone call, please.”After Taylor made the call, Victor and Kevin’s parents arrived, followe
‘I lost it,’ Taylor acknowledged. But what could he do? Tristan was his bottom line, and now Charlie was part of those he intended to protect. Earlier, when Taylor arrived at the Nook and Brew Cafe, he saw the growing tension from outside the glass windows. He rushed in, catching Archie slapping Ch
His voice was calm but held a deep meaning. He paused, clearly evaluating if everyone was listening. “I want everyone here to understand why I had to settle,” Douglas resumed, “The beating Archie received at your hands, Taylor, cannot easily be dismissed. You went past the stage of self-defense. If
Chapter 40: Charlie’s Grandfather“Are you okay, Dad? So, you know Charlie’s grandfather?” Savannah asked. Taylor, on the other hand, gave Charlie a questioning look. He mouthed, ‘What’s going on, Babe?’“Wait. Wait. Maybe I am overthinking this,” Douglas Carrington said, raising his hand. He took
“It’s not a problem,” Charlie answered. “This isn’t some fling, Grandpa. I really like him. Taylor is nice - a responsible brother, sweet and caring, overprotective, but so are most men in my life -”Charlie’s comment left Charles laughing. He asked, “Does that include me and your other grandpa?”Ch
“Good morning,” Taylor greeted, forcing Charlie to lie on her back. “Babe, give me a quick morning kiss.”Who was he kidding? For the past two days, Taylor had been waking her at half past five for a morning kiss. Although he called it ‘quick,’ they made out for fifteen minutes yesterday. Charlie c
It took seconds before her senses returned to her. She screamed, “Taylor! Why didn’t you close the door?”She slammed the door shut, fuming as she reached her room. Later, while having breakfast, Taylor kept chuckling while eating. He asked, “What is so fucking wrong if you had seen me butt naked?”
Maxwell was so confused. When did they kiss before?“I was twelve, and your mom invited us over for her birthday. We were hanging out in your room when you fell asleep,” Dawn began.“You didn’t,” Maxwell reacted, his heart swelling. “Fuck.”She pouted and admitted, “I did.”“That barely counts, but
Maxwell sighed, hearing his mother’s retreating footsteps down the staircase.Beside him, Dawn had her face buried in both hands like she was trying to teleport to another universe. “This is so embarrassing,” she groaned. “I don’t know how I’m ever going to face your mom again. I might have to fake
He leaned in just a little. “But then again... I’m done waiting and figuring it out. I know what I want, and I’m going for it.”And then… he closed the gap between them, his gaze dropping from her eyes to her lips.The second his lips brushed against hers, her mind went blank.She froze, eyes wide,
“Thomas looks like he was made in a lab to be the most boring man on Earth,” Maxwell described. “I bet he’s the kind of guy who makes a grocery list just to feel excitement!”That last line made Dawn crack up. She laughed so hard that her stomach hurt. “Actually, that’s true! He does get excited ab
Talk about bad luck… or was it?Out of the corner of her eye, Dawn saw Andi and Eve exchange a smile—and it wasn’t just any smile. It was the kind that screamed they were up to something, and Dawn was sure of it.“Oh, Thomas, look, it’s your friend, or is she?” Eve said, smirking.Thomas, upon seein
“Did you see the last game of the Luxford Iron Pulse? They made it through the pre-qualifying round!”“I saw it! They were amazing! Taylor, Maxwell, Daniel, Drew, and Dylan are the team’s stars.”“The last shot by Maxwell Turner was epic!”“I thought you didn’t like basketball?”“I don’t! I just thi
“It’s not like that,” Dawn said. “Well, I did find out he was still involved with his ex. I have no proof, but his actions were clear to me.”“That asshole!” Max shouted. “Just wait till I get back, I’ll—”“No, don’t. I don’t care. It didn’t hurt. Honestly, I was relieved that I didn’t have to feel
Thomas: [I already told you, nothing is going on between me and Eve. Eve just couldn’t accept that I had moved on. And remember, my professor forbade us from entering into a romantic relationship with a coworker during our training.]Dawn frowned as she read Thomas’s texts. She no longer wanted anyt
"What are you doing here? Did my aunt ask you to get me?" Thomas asked, his voice shaken.'What?' Dawn thought. Even though she was planning to break up with him, she still had to pretend? It was irritating Dawn to the core! "Yeah. Your aunt asked me to get you. It'll just take a few minutes.""Wait
