View MoreAyva’s POVI was in the shower when I heard the bathroom door open. Quickly I put my face under the shower to rinse off the soap lather before opening my eyes. I drew back the shower curtains a bit to peep and just as I’d known, it was Justin that had walked in the bathroom. I was going to say something about how I wasn’t going to take a shower with him but then I saw that not only did he not seem like he wanted to take one (he had his briefs back on), but he also looked as if he wanted to be anywhere but then. “Is something wrong?” I asked, with my head poked out while my body remained shielded behind the curtain. I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t a bit insecure about my body. “Yeah, I— need to leave. My clothes, I can’t find them anywhere.” His eyes scanned the bathroom, searching for his clothes and I felt a dull pang in my chest. “Did something happen?” I asked again, I was worried. So worried that I didn’t realize that I’d just stepped out of the shower without covering my body.
Justin’s POVSomething was tickling my face. At first, I didn’t pay any attention to it because I wasn’t ready to wake up yet but when it persisted, it started to bother me. And then a thought occurred to me, an ant was walking on my face. My eyes snapped open that instant, my hand reaching up to catch the ant before it could escape but there was no ant, just the most beautiful woman I’d ever seen sleeping peacefully beside me. I’d never been a morning person but that morning I was in a good mood. I was the happiest I’d ever been in the morning and I knew that was as a result of Ayva, lying next to me. If only every morning could be like this…‘Soon.’ I told myself. In a way it was me consoling myself of having everything I’d ever desired. ‘Very soon.’As my fingers reached up to touch her face, a smile appeared on my lips as I realized that the ant had indeed been Ayva and that she wasn’t asleep but rather pretending to be. I lowered my head to kiss her forehead, then I moved to
Justin’s POV It was around 2 am when I was jolted awake by the sound of my ringing phone. With half-closed eyes, I tried to find it from the direction the sound was coming from with my free hand. My other hand which served as Ayva’s pillow felt numb and I couldn’t even complain about it because I’d do it every day. I was finally where I’d always wanted to be, and even though I could touch and see her sleeping peacefully right next to me, it still felt so surreal. I still found it hard to believe that what happened had really happened. It felt like a dream and I hoped that if it was, I never woke up from it. I found my phone and it was Jace calling. I’d at first wanted to ignore his call but when I realized that he probably hadn’t gone to sleep yet because of me, I decided to swipe answer to tell him that I wouldn’t be able to make it back home that day. Gently, I pulled my arm from under Ayva’s head, carefully placing a pillow under her head. “Fuck!” I cursed under my breath
Ayva’s POVHis skin felt hot against mine, burning me with a heat I never thought a man as cold as him was capable of."Ayva,"A chill raced down my spine. I could never get tired of hearing him call my name. I could never get tired of hearing him speak. His mouth claimed mine again in a hot searing kiss. Yes, it was exactly where I needed them to be. They had far more important things to do than talking. There were places, and things I needed them to be and do. Things that would leave me panting and pleading for more. "Please...""Soon."My hand grabbed him and rolled over until I was on top, straddling his waist. "What are you doing?" He demanded. "What do you think?" Pressing a heated kiss to the corner of his mouth.I kissed him again, passionately pouring all my heart and soul into him. Then, slowly, I let my lips wander down to his exposed chest, kissing every ridge of his muscles, trailing his perfectly sculpted body with just my lips. When my hands moved to the waistband o
Ayva's POVWhen it felt as if my lungs would collapse, pulled away to breathe. I looked up at Justin to see that he wasn't as affected by the kiss as I was. He wasn't as breathless as I was and that made me wonder if he'd felt what I felt, the electrifying feeling that spread all over my body. We continued to stare at each other as if there was nothing more important in the world as if we were both the only thing worth looking at. "I love you." I blurted out before I could stop myself. Seriously I think that kiss and Justin's overall presence in general was making me say things that I shouldn't."You do?" He asked with a raised brow, there was a small smile plastered on his lips and I couldn't tell if it was genuine or mocking. I nodded and waited for him to say it back and when he didn't, panic set in inside of me. I know he'd told me he loved me once but that was a long time ago.What if his feelings for me had changed since then?"You-you love me too, right?" I was forced to as
Ayva's POVA grin broke out on his face, he never expected me to do that. I never expected me to make the first move either. "Was that you trying to kiss me?" He had a permanent smile on his face and as beautiful as he looked with it on, I wanted to smack it away from his face 'cause I knew he was teasing me. "Shut up." I frowned, trying to hide the embarrassment I felt. He barked out a laugh, and I threw him a playful glare. "You're cute." He grinned, before pinching my cheek. "I'm not!" I exclaimed, horrified by the word he'd described me with a whatever happened to beautiful. Or pretty? "I'm in my thirties. And I'm older than you. You can't call me cute." "Yes, I can. You're tinier and you act like a woman in her twenties." "Well excuse me for acting immature. One minute I was twenty-four and the next I was told I was now thirty-something years old. How else am I supposed to process that age jump when at heart I still feel like I'm twenty four." I blurted before I could reali
Ayva's POVIt was raining heavily outside. No one but Olivia knew the address of my new apartment. I didn't order anything neither was I expecting anyone which was why when the doorbell kept ringing, I was a bit scared to answer it. I kept thinking of the worst. In the past, I had a stalker and while I hadn't heard anything from him recently, there was no saying that he couldn't be the one at the door. But when I approached the door and clicked the button to activate the camera outside the door so as the see who was by the door and saw that it was a very drenched Justin waiting for an answer, I didn't think twice before unlocking and pulling the door open. "Justin," I called as my eyes raked down his body. I was surprised to see him standing outside my apartment. I was even more surprised that he was drenched from head to toe. "Why did you come here when it is raining heavily? Why did you get in the rain?" "I rode the convertible today. When it started raining the roof button decid
Justin’s POV“Is something the matter Mr. Mount?” Samantha whispered to me. She looked concerned and when I threw her a questioning look, she said, “Mr. Montoya has been asking you a question for the past thirty seconds and you haven’t responded yet.” I glanced at Mr. Montoya and then the rest of the businessmen in the room. They were all looking at me, weirdly. I cleared my throat and asked, “Um, what was the question again?” The truth is my mind wasn’t there. I didn’t like the tone Ayva had spoken to me with when I called earlier. I didn’t like that I’d tried her number multiple times after that and I kept getting told that she couldn’t be reached. Another thing that bothered me was the picture Miguel, the private investigator I hired to watch Aiden sent to me. It was a picture of him embracing Ayva. I remember how I’d squeezed my phone so hard that I almost crushed it when I saw the picture. And since then, I haven’t been able to concentrate on the meeting. If I’d gotten the pi
Ayva’s POVAfter getting my blood drawn out of me, I was told to return to the waiting room while Amanda had to return to the ward Allison was to stay with her. “See, needles aren’t so bad after all.” Aiden teased as soon as I settled in the spot next to him. My eyes narrowed at him in suspicion. “How did you know I was scared of needles? I never told you that?” He laughed. “Your expression earlier gave it away.” I eyed him skeptically, I wasn’t fully convinced by I let it go eventually. Aiden and I sat in comfortable silence as we waited for the doctor to return with the news of the test result. Out of the blue, Aiden placed a hand on my knee and I threw a questioning gaze at him. “You were moving it a lot. Are you okay?”I didn’t even notice that I was bouncing my foot on the floor. “I am. Just a little anxious.” I murmured. I was nervous about the test result. What if I wasn’t a match? What would that mean for Allison? What would happen to her? Aiden took my hand in his. An
